Other than Dawnfall Peak, the back mountain of Fluorescent Wind Sect's main peak was the place with the densest amount of divine energy. The people who lived on the peak were the hall masters of the various halls and a small number of elite disciples.
Zhu Yao arrived here early in the morning. However, she did not head towards the Sect Master's cave residence at the mountain peak, instead, she headed straight to another cave residence in the middle. That place was covered in spiritual plants, the flowers red and willows green, the arrangement extremely elegant, the immortal energy not much inferior to that of Sunset Peak. As Zhu Yao walked, she looked around, until she stopped in front of a large jade door. A restriction was placed on the door.
"Yin Xin wishes to meet senior-martial brother Xu." Zhu Yao shouted.
A moment later, the jade door opened. Before she could rush in, a man in a green robe greeted her. His face was full of joy, as if he was very surprised by her visit.
"Junior Sister Yin!?"
Zhu Yao smiled. "I have never been to senior-martial brother's cave residence before, so I came to take a look on the way. I'm not disturbing senior-martial brother, am I?"
"Of course not." Xu Nuoyan had a warm smile on his face, as he said slowly. "For junior-martial sister to be able to come to my place, I naturally couldn't ask for more. Even if I have to go into closed-door training, I still have to meet junior-martial sister."
He was really good with words, directly pointing out that in order to see her, he gave up his seclusion. Unfortunately, she did not feel guilty at all!
"Junior-martial sister, please." Xu Nuoyan welcomed her to the living room, and personally poured a cup of tea for her. "Junior Sister, why did you think of visiting Senior Brother?"
Zhu Yao put down the teacup in her hands. "My mother told me that senior-martial brother is my father's personal succeeding disciple. He has always been easy-going, and he's also the most talented disciple in the sect. She told me to learn more from senior-martial brother."
"You flatter me, Mistress." Xu Nuoyan said modestly, however, the gaze he was looking at Zhu Yao with, began to drift away, and his face was filled with deep emotions. "Junior-martial sister Yin is able to understand me, this senior-martial brother is already very satisfied."
"In the past, Yin Xin misunderstood you." Zhu Yao walked down the stairs. "However, I've just woken up, so everyone here is a stranger to me, including senior-martial brother. That's why Mother agreed to cancel the dual cultivation ceremony. "
Xu Nuo's eyes darkened. "I understand, Junior-apprentice Sister, I …"
"Moreover." Zhu Yao immediately interrupted his words. "That day, that Miss Mo spoke with certainty. Senior-martial brother is her husband, and she is your wife. Although my cultivation level isn't high, I'm still my mother's daughter. No matter what, I won't be able to marry a married man. "
"Junior-martial sister, you've misunderstood me. I'm not …" Xu Nuoyan explained anxiously as usual.
"Oh right!" Zhu Yao once again interrupted his words. "That day, she seemed to have taken out your love token as proof." Zhu Yao immediately took out a hairpin. "Back then, I was curious, so I picked it up and looked at it. I realized that the word 'Xian' was even engraved on it? Mother said it looked like Senior Martial Brother's handwriting. "
Xu Nuoyan's face paled, as he suddenly stood up and said with a face full of anger, "That Miss Mo is truly cunning, to actually use such a method to frame me. No wonder you have such a deep misunderstanding of me. Junior Sister has never given anyone a hairpin. Don't believe the words of evil people. "
"You really don't recognize this hairpin?"
"I, Xu Nuoyan, swear to the heavens!" Xu Nuoyan's face was solemn.
“OK。” Zhu Yao immediately kept the hairpin. Without leaving a trace, she touched her waist, and pressed down on the faintly swaying jade pendant. "Just treat it as me thinking too much."
Only then did Xu Nuoyan's agitated emotions calm down a little. He continued to sit down, and once again looked at her with a drowning gaze. "Junior-martial sister, you have just woken up, and you still don't understand your senior-martial brother. Not willing … I can understand as well, senior-martial brother will always be waiting for you."
The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. Towards this face of his that resembled a Casanova, she was really a little cold. "Hoho, actually, there's something I don't understand. The number of times I've met senior-martial brother can be counted with my fingers, why would you …" If he were to say that he fell in love with her after meeting her a few times, she wouldn't believe it even if she were to be beaten to death.
Xu Nuoyan's expression sank even deeper, and faintly, it carried an unfathomable melancholy. "To you, we've only met a few times, but to senior-martial brother, he has already waited for a thousand years."
What did he mean?
Xu Nuoyan sighed. That focused gaze of his made her hair stand on end. "Junior-martial sister might not know, but a thousand years ago, on the very first day I entered the sect, master had brought me to Dawnfall Peak to meet junior-martial sister. That was the first time I met you. I'm not afraid of junior-martial sister laughing at me, but … From that day onwards, you already had a place in my heart. "
"A thousand years ago?" The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched.
"Yes!" Xu Nuoyan however still had an affectionate look. "Back then, I had just ascended not long ago."
Zhu Yao sank into silence. She subconsciously wanted to look at the jade pendant on her waist, but she forcefully endured it. She could only use the action of drinking tea to press down on the jade pendant that was about to pop out from her waist. Since he had just ascended, then it meant that he had just left Mo Xianxian not long ago, right?
"So, junior-martial sister, you can choose not to believe me …" Xu Nuoyan however still continued his affectionate confession. "But please do not doubt my feelings for you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have proposed to my master's wife to marry you when you were still unconscious. "
"Marrying me is your intention?" Zhu Yao caught onto the main point.
"Yes!" Xu Nuoyan nodded heavily, his face was filled with determination. "Back then, junior-martial sister was still unconscious. Even if you were to never wake up, I wouldn't care either, as long as I can be by your side for the rest of my life. Junior-martial sister … "
The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, and just as his claws were about to reach over, Zhu Yao simply felt nauseous.
With a whoosh, she stood up. "I forgot to turn off the gas, I'll be heading back first."
As expected, a shameless person was invincible under the heavens.
"Junior-martial sister …" Xu Nuoyan had a dumbfounded look. Why did she have to leave while chatting nicely? And what's gas?
Zhu Yao pressed onto her waist, as she hurriedly walked out. Just as she reached the door, she stopped. "Oh, right. I forgot to ask, why did my mother suddenly ask you to go into closed-door training? "
Xu Nuoyan's expression stiffened, and a moment later, he said. "It's my fault. I wasn't willing to be framed by that Mo woman, and caused junior-martial sister to misunderstand me. That's why Shimu got angry. "
He sent people to kill his wife, and he even wanted to say that it was for her. He really had enough.
— — — —
Zhu Yao did not stay any longer, as she flew straight back to Dawnfall Peak on her flying sword. She pulled out the jade pendant at her waist, and with a flash of white light, a black-clothed woman appeared in front of her.
"You heard everything clearly earlier?" Zhu Yao looked at her. "Do you still think that it's because of me?"
Mo Xianxian did not reply. On her delicate and pretty face, there was no longer that ruthless aura from yesterday. Instead, she looked a little listless. "Why? Why did he do this to me? He clearly swore that he would never let me down … "
As though she could not endure this blow, her legs weakened, as she squatted on the ground and began to cry bitterly. "I clearly trusted him so much. No matter how difficult it was in the Divine Realm, I had always trusted him." She hugged her legs tightly and curled herself into a ball, as her tears flowed down. "He sent me a message saying that he had his own difficulties, which was why he did not acknowledge me. I believed him … In fact, the moment I received the news of him being locked up, I immediately rushed over. But … But … Why?"
Zhu Yao sighed, and squatted down next to her. This girl was so stupid that she could not help but want to scold her to death. "He sent you a message after the Major-martial practitioner ceremony?"
Mo Xianxian nodded with a choked voice.
It was no wonder. She had clearly severed ties with Xu Nuoyan back then, yet, she suddenly returned to kill her. Xu Nuoyan sure had good methods. On one hand, he circled around her in Fluorescent Wind Sect, while on the other hand, he did not let go of Mo Xianxian.
"You believed everything he said. Serves you right for falling for it."
Mo Xianxian did not reply. A moment later, she choked out. "He's … my husband." How could she not believe him?
"How long have you known him?"
"… More than ten thousand years."
"Ten thousand years, and you're still unable to see a person clearly." Zhu Yao glanced at her. "Are you stupid?"
Mo Xianxian cried even more miserably.
"Stop crying!" Zhu Yao was a little annoyed. She was really not good at comforting people. "Isn't it just a breakup? It's not too late to wake up now. There are plenty of good men in this world, waiting for you to tease them! "
"…" Mo Xianxian did not react. She simply hugged her legs tightly. As she cried, she lightly trembled, suppressing the feelings that she had already lost.
Zhu Yao did not say anything else either. In any case, at a time like this, she most likely would not be able to hear anything. She could only accompany her and sit by the side. Who would have thought that the moment she cried, it would be like the Yellow River flooding, and could not be controlled in an instant. Zhu Yao's buttocks were already hurting from sitting, yet, she was still crying loudly.
Zhu Yao had no choice but to return to the house, pull Goudan out, and throw him over. Don't say that the boss did not help you. Now that she had broken up, hurry and take advantage of her perilous situation.
"Little girl Xianxian, what's wrong? Don't cry. "As expected, Goudan knew what to do, as he anxiously circled around Mo Xianxian.
"From the looks of it, you know that you've been played by a man, right?" Tao Manfeng, who had unknowingly followed them out, coldly snorted. "I've long said that man can't be relied on. Only you would believe his nonsense. Whatever he said about being helpless, it's all a lie. You don't have to persuade her either, she deserves it. "
Yo, her mocking mode was fully activated. Why did she feel a little sour? Zhu Yao turned to look at Tao Manfeng, and felt that there was something wrong with this lady.
Tao Manfeng felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by her, as she coldly snorted, and no longer spoke.
"Since the matter has been cleared up, you people should hurry and leave Fluorescent Wind Sect." Zhu Yao immediately ordered them to leave. "In the future, don't come and kill me for no reason."
When these words fell, a hint of awkwardness flashed past the faces of the three.
"Here, catch!" Zhu Yao threw the spatial jade towards Mo Xianxian.
"You …" Mo Xianxian was startled, as she did not dare to believe that she would actually return the spatial jade to her.
"I don't care for it." Her master said that half of the spatial jade had been destroyed, and it was no longer the same as before. The divine energy was about the same as the one in Lightning Divine Hall as well. Furthermore, that was her previous avatar. To put it bluntly, it was her previous corpse. She did not want to carry it by her side every single day. "Use your brain more when you encounter problems. Don't be silly."
Mo Xianxian held onto the divine jade in her hands, and said a moment later. "Thank you!"
