"Crack!"
The Prairie Burning Sword transformed into a streak of fiery light and swept across Qin Yan's Dragon Scale Armor martial soul shield, but it only left behind a shallow mark on it. And Qin Yan's strenuous counterattack also caused a groove to appear on the wall of Lin Muyu's gourd. However, this mark was swiftly repaired by battle qi. This was the result of the Recovery Ability.
Qin Yan's Fire Snake Spear battle method was wide open and wide, seemingly reckless, but concealed a profound theory. Each attack would always hold back, allowing Lin Muyu to dodge the first attack but absolutely not the second. Even the number of times he attacked Lin Muyu was quite a few times more than the number of times Lin Muyu attacked him.
But Lin Muyu borrowed the gourd martial soul's many techniques. Under the unceasing consumption of the Recovery Ability, Qin Yan's Dragon Scale Armor was already riddled with holes.
"Alright..
. "Qin Yan abruptly blasted back Lin Muyu with a spear. Panting heavily, he laughed loudly and waved his hand, saying," My battle qi is already exhausted. Big Brother Lin Muyu is indeed very impressive. No wonder Big Brother said that your strength is absolutely not beneath his! "
"Oh? Did Big Brother Qin Lei say so? "
"Yes. He and Commander Feng Jixing's evaluation of you is very high, feeling that you are the person with the highest talent and comprehension ability among the younger generation in the imperial capital. Perhaps... you will also be the strongest person in Lanyan City in the future."
"Like that huh..." Lin Muyu rubbed her nose and said somewhat awkwardly, "I'm not that impressive. Otherwise, I also wouldn't have nearly been killed time and time again."
Qin Yan chuckled. "But didn't you avert danger every time? This is proof of strength! "
"Alright, Little Prince Qin Yan, I'm returning to the Eagle Nest Camp."
"En. I'll send Big Brother off."
"Alright."
Qin Yan escorted Lin Muyu all the way out of the Divine Palace, shocking the few Divine Palace guards outside. The second son of Prince Jining actually escorted Lin Muyu out. This kind of treatment was not available to others, and they could not help but respect this number one sparring partner of the Divine Palace a little more. In fact, the people in the Divine Palace were truly in awe. In the competition just now, Lin Muyu had clearly won. In many people's hearts, the strength of the number one sparring partner was still above that of the number one instructor. Lin Muyu's strength was so strong that it was as terrifying as a freak!
…
After returning to the Eagle Nest Camp, he continued to try to refine the Nine Heavens Spirit Iron, but he was unable to do so.
Late at night, Lin Muyu had already tried countless times, and her face was a little pale. Lulu fluttered on his shoulder and said, "Big brother, why don't we give up? This isn't a solution either … "
Lin Muyu was extremely weak. She nodded and sat down on the floor tiles dejectedly.
At this moment, Wei Chou's voice came from outside, "Lord Commander, Princess Tang Xiaoxi requests an audience!"
"Oh, Xiao Xi is here?"
Lin Muyu's heart warmed, and she hurriedly got up and walked out of the residence. The night was not very good. There was no moon or stars, and it was pitch black. Outside, under the illumination of the torches, Tang Xiaoxi dismounted and walked over with a smile. When she got closer, she saw Lin Muyu's expression, and couldn't help but be stunned, "Mu, what's wrong with you? Have you not recovered from your injuries from the battle at Deer Cry Park … "
"No." Lin Muyu shook her head.
Tang Xiaoxi pouted, and took out a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead. "I have been cultivating in seclusion in the Duke's residence these days, and didn't expect so many things to happen outside. I'm really sorry …"
Lin Muyu couldn't help but laugh, "Xiao Xi, why are you apologizing? You haven't let anyone down."
"No, it's just that I … I should have come to see you earlier."
"Ha, this …" Lin Muyu suddenly felt speechless.
"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Tang Xiaoxi asked with a smile.
"Alright."
Lin Muyu stepped aside, and Tang Xiaoxi ordered the guards behind her to stay outside, while she followed Lin Muyu into his residence. Wei Chou followed closely behind, and with an ambiguous smile on his face, he asked, "My Lord, do you need me to prepare something for you?"
His smile was really asking for a beating, and Lin Muyu glared at him. "Prepare what? What's with that smile on your face? Don't tell me you want to prepare a box of Durex for me? "
Wei Chou was stunned, "What is Durex …"
Tang Xiaoxi was also stunned, and asked with a smile, "Mu, what … is that?"
Lin Muyu scratched her head, and secretly hated herself for blurting it out. She said awkwardly, "It's a type of tea from my hometown, it's very smooth … it has various fruity flavors, heh … heh …"
Tang Xiaoxi squinted her beautiful eyes, and said with a smile, "Hmph, looking at your lying face, I really want to beat you up, but … is there really fruity tea? If there's time, you must invite me to try it … "
Looking at Tang Xiaoxi's beautiful face, Lin Muyu couldn't help but think about some other things. She nodded and said, "Cough cough … if there's a chance, if you're willing …"
Tang Xiaoxi giggled, "Hehe, what are you talking about, why wouldn't I be willing?"
Wei Chou stood at the side in a daze, "Then, my Lord, do you still want me to prepare some snacks, tea, and fruits for you and Princess Xi tonight?"
"Mm, go!"
"Yes, my Lord!"
…
Although Lin Muyu's room was spacious, it didn't have many furnishings. There was a table, a few chairs, and the rest was a bed. After Tang Xiaoxi entered the room, she 'looked around', and sat on the bed. She said with a smile, "Mu … this room of yours, other than the bed being a little soft, there's really nothing good about it …"
"The bed … it's good to sleep comfortably."
Lin Muyu forcefully suppressed the urge to invite Tang Xiaoxi to try the bed. After all, this was a different world where words and actions were more serious. It wasn't the world where she could casually joke around. It wouldn't be good if Tang Xiaoxi flipped out.
Tang Xiaoxi giggled and said, "Are you nervous?"
"No."
"Then why aren't you coming over and sitting down?"
"Oh, okay …"
"I mean, come sit beside me!"
"Ah, okay …"
Lin Muyu obediently sat on the side of the bed, her heart filled with even more complicated feelings. At this moment, Wei Chou walked in with a plate of fruits and a pot of warm wine. He couldn't help but be stunned, "Ah … did I disturb you guys?"
"No …" Tang Xiaoxi opened her big, watery eyes and smiled innocently.
Lin Muyu gestured, "Wei Chou, you can leave after you put down the things."
"Yes!"
Wei Chou turned around and left.
A man and a woman stayed in a room together, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward. The faint fragrance from Tang Xiaoxi really tested a person's patience. Lin Muyu was a hot-blooded man after all, so how could he resist this kind of temptation? He hurriedly used the Spirit Pulse Technique to clear the distracting thoughts in his mind. But at this time, even Tang Xiaoxi was quite nervous. Her beautiful face was red as she said, "I … Should I not have come tonight?"
"No …"
Lin Muyu smiled slightly, "Xiao Xi, how's your advancement recently?"
"Hmm … I'm almost at the peak of the Third Heaven of the Earth Realm … Recently, Qu has been teaching me how to cultivate, so my advancement speed is very fast, but I can't break through to the Heaven Realm. I'm still keeping the 5,000-year-old Fire Spirit Stone that you brought with you. I'll use it on the day I break through."
"I see …" Lin Muyu stood up and poured a glass of wine for Tang Xiaoxi. She said, "Drink some wine to warm your body. Xiao Xi's cultivation speed is still very fast, much faster than I thought!"
Tang Xiaoxi also stood up and said with an unconvinced smile, "What's wrong? Do you think I'm a pampered princess who doesn't want to improve?"
"Of course not! Xiao Xi is the best … "
"Hmph!"
Tang Xiaoxi drank a glass of wine, and her face seemed to turn even redder. She suddenly asked, "Mu, you saved Xiao Yin in Deer Garden, did she … did she …"
She stammered for a long time, but did not say anything.
Lin Muyu's heart also beat faster, and she asked, "Did Xiao Yin do something?"
Tang Xiaoxi's face turned red, and even Lin Muyu could feel the heat. She stammered for a while, and said, "Did she tell you that she likes you?"
"No … no …" Lin Muyu was extremely embarrassed.
"Alright then …" Tang Xiaoxi seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden, and she pursed her lips into a smile, "Mu, after you became the commander of the Eagle Nest Camp, are you especially busy with military affairs?"
Lin Muyu spread her hands, "Do I look like I'm busy with military affairs?"
"You don't …"
"Then that's right, I've handed everything to Wei Chou, Xiahou Sang, and the other Squad Leaders of the Imperial Guards."
"Hmph, you can even be so casual as the commander of the Empire's regular army, you're really something …"
"Is that so?" Lin Muyu glanced at her, and said, "You speak as if you're very diligent. Do you want to see how much work it takes to train and deploy nearly a thousand troops every day?"
Tang Xiaoxi laughed, "I don't want to …"
Looking at her beautiful smiling face, Lin Muyu's heart was pounding. Just as she was about to lose control of herself, a sudden clap of thunder came from outside.
"It's thunder, it's going to rain …" Tang Xiaoxi said, blinking her eyes.
Lin Muyu chuckled, "Don't worry, there are plenty of rooms in the Eagle Nest Camp. If it really rains, you can stay the night in the Eagle Nest Camp."
A naughty smile appeared on Tang Xiaoxi's face. "Does that mean something is going to happen?"
"What could happen?" Lin Muyu said righteously.
Tang Xiaoxi pouted, "Oh, you're so disappointing …"
"You … I can't talk to you anymore …"
Lin Muyu was indignant. She was actually being teased by Tang Xiaoxi. It seemed that the girls in this world … were quite loving, much more lively than she had imagined.
…
"Whoosh …"
Opening up an oil-paper umbrella, Lin Muyu said, "Xiao Xi, come out with me to see the thunderstorm?"
"Yes."
This was a winter thunderstorm. The heavy rain poured down on the Eagle Nest Mountain, causing the flames in the braziers to flicker. In the distance, Wei Chou's loud voice could be heard, "Hey, you lazy bums, pay attention to the oil in the braziers. Don't let the fire go out, or I'll spank your butts!"
Tang Xiaoxi smiled, tightened her cloak, and snuggled up to Lin Muyu.
