Ye Qingcheng’s attacks intensified, and Ye Feiyu was defeated within a few rounds. The spirit sword in her hand was sent flying, and the long sword was pressed against her throat.

Qin Lu watched from the sidelines as Ye Qingcheng’s spirit sword almost pierced Ye Feiyu, and he broke out in a cold sweat. Although he didn’t expect Ye Qingcheng and Ye Feiyu to fight, for them to meet at this time and fight meant he couldn’t escape responsibility.

If Ye Qingcheng accidentally injured or killed Ye Feiyu, he would have committed a great sin.

“Sister Qingcheng, you win. But I won’t give up, and one day I will defeat you.”

“If Miss Ye wants to fight, I will accompany you at any time.”

“But swords have no eyes, and it’s inevitable that there will be times when you can’t control yourself. If you hurt your hands, feet, or face, then don’t blame me.”

Hearing these words, the surrounding disciples suddenly felt their scalps tremble. When did their senior sister, Qingcheng, become so scary?!

After warning Ye Feiyu, Ye Qingcheng slowly turned her head, and her gaze fell on Qin Lu. Although there was a smile on her face, Qin Lu felt that at this moment, her smile was sharper than a sword.

‘What the hell, what kind of expression is this? What kind of look is this? She is looking at me as if I’m having an affair!’ Qin Lu thought’

“Xiao Gu, come, let’s go home.” Hearing her mother calling her, Xiao Gu hurriedly jumped from Qin Lu’s shoulder and landed on Ye Qingcheng’s shoulder.

“Father, aren’t you going back with Mother?”

“Xiao Gu, in the future, if your father wants to come back, then let him. If he doesn’t, then don’t call him back. It’s good for us—only mother and son—to live together.”

“If you don’t think it’s fun at home, once in a while, mother will take you out to play. There will be many uncles outside to play with you.”

“Let’s go home.” With that, Ye Qingcheng rose on her sword and flew towards Wuchen Peak.

Hearing Ye Qingcheng’s words, the disciples of the Holy Maiden Sect looked at Qin Lu with strange eyes. It was as if they were looking at a scumbag.

Feeling everyone’s strange gazes, Qin Lu suddenly felt that he was more wronged than Dou E. [T/L : Dou E is from a Chinese play about a devoted daughter-in-law who was framed for killing Zhang Lü’er’s father and sentenced to death. Subsequently, she was ultimately proven innocent after her death.]. What is this? He clearly didn’t do anything; how did it become like this?! She was even planning on taking the child out to find uncles; was she planning to make him wear a colorful hat?

“Um, Miss Ye, are you alright?”

“It’s okay. Sister Qingcheng is really powerful. She is indeed the number one genius of the Holy Maiden Sect.” Ye Feiyu smiled and retrieved the long sword that had been sent flying. Then, she tidied up her somewhat messy clothes and swept away her dispirited look as if nothing had happened.

“Big Brother Qin, there must be a lot of fun places in the Holy Maiden Sect. Can you take me around again?”“Miss Ye, I’m afraid I can’t do it now. Yesterday, I promised our Ninth Elder that I would help her refine some pills. I might not have time to accompany you.”

“Why don’t I let the other senior sisters accompany you?”

“Then forget it. I’m not familiar with them. Unless you or Big Sis Qingcheng accompanies me.”

“Alright, then I’ll send you to Madam Ye first?”

“No need. You go do your thing. I can find my mother myself.”

“I was the one who brought you out. If I don’t send you back, what if Madam Ye blames me?

Senior Martial Sisters, can I trouble you to send Miss Ye to the main hall? ”

“Don’t worry, Junior Martial Brother. We will send Miss Ye to the main hall.” Two female disciples hurriedly responded.

After arranging Ye Feiyu’s matter, Qin Lu directly flew towards Wuchen Peak on his sword. Seeing Qin Lu leave, Ye Feiyu’s silver teeth lightly bit her red lips. ‘I said I didn’t need you to send me, and you really didn’t. What a block of wood!’

After returning to Wuchen Peak, Qin Lu did not directly return to his room. Instead, he walked towards Ye Qingcheng’s room. When he arrived at the door, Qin Lu found that the door was not closed. He paused for a moment before directly entering the room.

Entering the room, he found Ye Qingcheng sitting cross-legged on the bed. Spiritual qi surrounded her body; it seemed like she was cultivating. Qin Lu did not want to disturb her. Thus, he got up and prepared to leave.

But just as he turned around, Ye Qingcheng’s voice rang out. “Why did you run back? Aren’t you going to accompany your Miss Ye?”

“Hehe, aren’t I accompanying Miss Ye?” Qin Lu’s face hung a smile.

“I don’t need you to accompany me. Go accompany your Red Leaf Princess.”

“You really don’t need me?”

“No need.”

“Alright, then I’ll go accompany her.” Qin Lu finished speaking and turned to leave.

Seeing that Qin Lu was actually going to leave, Ye Qingcheng’s face instantly sank. She casually grabbed a pillow and prepared to throw it at Qin Lu, but just as she raised her hand, Qin Lu suddenly turned his head.

When Qin Lu looked, Ye Qingcheng’s pillow suddenly froze in midair, and she ended up throwing the pillow to the end of the bed and then lying down with her head facing the bed.

Seeing Ye Qingcheng lying down, Qin Lu hesitated and then walked back.“You? Why did you come back?”

“I have something to talk to you about.”

“You’re not going to accompany that princess?”

“Qingcheng, don’t be jealous. I’m not familiar with her. I only saw her once.”

“You don’t look like you’ve just met. Big brother Qin? The way she calls you seems so intimate!” Ye Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Qin Lu.

“Qingcheng, I’m telling the truth. I really only saw her once. Yesterday, didn’t I chase after those demons? One of them entered a red leaf forest, so I followed him. Later on, I met Miss Ye.”

“That Red Leaf Valley had a formation, and it forbade flying. I didn’t know how to get out, so I asked her for help. Later, I went through Valley Master Ye Tiannan and then came back.”

“It’s that simple?”

“Nothing else?”

“Uh, we only met once. What else could there be?” Qin Lu was stunned. He can’t really say he accidentally saw Ye Feiyu bathing, can he? If he did, she would throw him out!

“But she told me that something happened between you two that didn’t even happen between us. How do you explain that?”

“Uh, what did she tell you?”

“What? You don’t plan to confess?”

“Uh, actually, it’s nothing. It’s just that, at that time, I killed those demons, and my body was stained with blood. Then I heard the sound of water nearby, so I wanted to go and wash up. I just happened to see her bathing in the river.”

“Bathing in the river, Ye Qingcheng suddenly stood up. You peeked at her bathing?”

“No, no, no. I’m not that wretched. At that time, I only accidentally saw her bathing and did not see anything else,”

“You really didn’t see anything?”

“Really.”

“Then why did she come to find you?”

“How would I know!”

“Aiya, let’s not talk about her. We’re together; why should we talk about unrelated people!”

“Qingcheng, there’s a very important matter. I think I need to talk to you about it.”

“What is it?” Ye Qingcheng asked seriously.

“Qingcheng, do you know why I always want you to kill me?”
