Chapter 360 Which one looks better
The next morning.
Lin Chuan slowly woke up, with a familiar medicinal scent lingering in his nostrils. He instantly woke up and subconsciously looked behind him.
"What are you looking at?"
Just at this moment, Li Yue pushed the door open with a bag of pastries in her hand. Her voice was as clear as a bell, breaking the silence in the room.
"Sister Li..."
There was confusion and surprise in Lin Chuan's eyes, and his lips were slightly open.
"I wasn't last night..."
The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he hesitated. He tried hard to recall what happened last night, but his memory was a little fuzzy.
"I woke up this morning and found you asleep on the table, so I put you on the bed."
Li Yue lowered her eyes slightly, placed the pastry gently on the table, then sat down slowly, picked up a piece of pastry and tasted it.
"Is that so..."
Lin Chuan frowned slightly, a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes, and his gaze quickly cast towards the table, his expression slightly nervous. "Did Sister Li see the letter?"
"What letter? I haven't seen it."
Li Yue was still eating the cakes leisurely, but if you looked closely, you would find that her fair ears had already turned red.
"Could it be that I'm so eager to escape that I'm going hysterical?"
Lin Chuan sat on the bed with his head slightly drooped, his eyes full of confusion.
"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and pack up, eat the cakes, and get ready to go."
"Oh."
……
Hundred Swords Sect.
"I wonder why Fellow Daoist Xu has come here?"
A graceful woman stood stiffly in front of Xu Hanyi and asked cautiously.
"My disciple has long admired your sect and wishes to challenge your young talents."
Xu Hanyi raised the corners of his lips slightly, his eyes were as soft as water, and he slowly turned his head to look at Jiang Wanying beside him.
"Friend Xu, you're joking. Your disciple is already at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. How can our small sect have any young talent that can compare to him?"
The woman bowed slightly, raised her hand and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead, her eyes full of sincerity.
"It's okay. It's okay to spar with the noble elders."
Xu Hanyi smoothed the slightly messy hair by Jiang Wanying's ears and said indifferently.
"This……"
The woman's brows were tightly furrowed, her face full of confusion.
If the elders of their own sect lost, and the news spread, the Qingshui Sect's reputation would be completely destroyed. But if they won...
Looking at the calm and composed Xu Hanyi in front of me, I might as well have lost.
"What? Could it be that Sect Master Chen looks down on me, his disciple?"
Xu Hanyi narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, her originally gentle face was stained with a layer of displeasure, and the aura around her instantly became a little colder.
Li Qingli: "..."
"Master, I have recently touched the threshold of becoming a god. Why don't I go back to seclusion and not embarrass Sect Master Chen?"
Jiang Wanying gently pulled Xu Hanyi's sleeve with her slender hand, her voice soft and gentle.
"Be good, Ying'er. Transforming the Spirit requires refining the five elements, and it's not something that can be solved through seclusion."
These words seemed to be spoken to Jiang Wanying, but Xu Hanyi's gaze always stayed on Li Qingli.
"..."
"Fellow Daoist Xu, this is a piece of Geng gold that I obtained from the ruins of an immortal in my early years. It is the perfect choice as a gold-attributed divine object."
Li Qingli raised her hand lightly and took out a piece of metal from the storage space. The metal emitted a soft white luster and was dazzling.
She bowed slightly and handed the Gengjin to Xu Hanyi with a flattering smile on her face, but her eyes could not hide the pain in her heart.
"These three small wooden swords contain my full-strength attack. Sect Leader Li, keep them."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Xu Hanyi showed a hint of satisfaction on his face and handed Li Qingli three small wooden swords that exuded a cold aura.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Xu."
Li Qingli bowed slightly, and the look in his eyes that had been slightly painful due to paying Gengjin was now a little relieved.
"Ying'er and I have things to attend to, so we won't bother Sect Leader Li any more. If you're free, you can come to Tianjian Peak for a cup of tea."
"Okay, okay, next time I will..."
……
Fulong State.
In the very center of this country, a towering mountain rises from the ground, with thick smoke billowing and surging from the top.
At the foot of the mountain, the hot magma was raging, but it was firmly blocked by a layer of green light curtain emitting soft light.
Looking around, this land does not seem to have suffered more serious damage. The only thing that can be felt is the volcanic ash that covers the sky and falls in large quantities.
After seven days, Lin Chuan and Li Yue finally arrived at their destination.
Along the way, Lin Chuan felt something was amiss with Li Yue. Perhaps she was in a hurry, but she didn't use the teleportation array and never traveled at night.
But if she said she was not in a hurry, the first thing she did when she woke up every morning was to urge Lin Chuan to set off immediately.
However, these days of getting along were not entirely fruitless.
Lin Chuan clearly felt that Li Yue's trust in him had greatly increased, and she was even willing to let him go out alone to buy pastries for her.
"Sister Li, the Fulong Kingdom is just ahead. Is there really Flame Star Grass here?"
Lin Chuan looked at Li Yue beside him with longing.
"The Flame Star Grass has an extremely harsh growth environment. It usually grows in places with scorching heat and overflowing magma. It must be here."
Li Yue raised her head slightly, her eyes determined.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly."
Since he was already here, Lin Chuan planned to cure his illness first, and then find an opportunity to sneak away to find Qing Shu.
……
Beijing.
"Sister Li, why are we coming to the capital if we're not going to the mountains to pick Flame Star Grass to make elixirs and heal illnesses?"
Lin Chuan followed Li Yue with a distressed look on his face. A pink light curtain enveloped the two of them, isolating them from the volcanic ash that filled the sky.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Come with me for a walk first."
Li Yue walked on the street with light lotus steps, her eyes full of curiosity, sometimes looking at the stalls in the east, sometimes looking at the small shops in the west.
On the street, the vendors' stalls were covered by a layer of green light curtain, which was exactly the same as the one that isolated the magma. It emitted a faint glow and protected the stalls from volcanic ash.
"Oh."
Lin Chuan responded softly and began to look around bored.
But with this casual glance, his eyes were instantly attracted and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
"Siqin Tower?!"
Lin Chuan's attention was instantly attracted by the plaque not far away. His eyes widened, full of shock and surprise.
"But it should only be a branch building..."
Lin Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes showing thought, and subconsciously reached out to touch the jade pendant at his waist.
"Xiao Linchuan, accompany me to take a look over there."
Li Yue, who was standing beside him, was suddenly attracted by the hairpin on a stall not far away. Her eyes lit up, and she stretched out her slender hand to grab Lin Chuan's sleeve, and walked towards the stall with light steps.
“Which one looks good?”
Li Yue tilted her head slightly, and gently picked up two warm jade hairpins with her fair fingers and waved them in front of Lin Chuan.
