Chapter 35: Mu Jian Li

The two of them slowly walked out side by side, leaving the bamboo forest of the Hundred Flower Garden and stepping back onto the thoroughfare of the capital.

The surroundings were still bustling, the yells of hawkers lingered on, and not far away there were still people fighting in the ring.

As a matter of fact, it has only been three days since I arrived in this world, clearly nothing has changed, but why do I feel that it has been a long time?

Yue Xiaochan smiled wryly, “Xue Mu ……”.

Actually not “uncle”, Xue Mu actually froze for a moment: “Huh?”

Yue Xiaochan didn’t think so and casually asked, “Have you ever felt that this thing called time is very strange? Sometimes it passes by in a flash, and you don’t even know what you were doing during those years. But sometimes every moment there are so many things, thinking so many thoughts, wanting to talk about them, but they’re all over the place and can’t be separated.”

It seems that they thought together, Xue Mu sighed, “Yes. It always feels like these three days have been a long, long time.”

Yue Xiaochan casually said, “How long do you think it takes to remember someone?”

Xue Mu thought about it and replied in a low voice, “Maybe it only takes a glance.”

Yue Xiaochan continued, “Then how long does it take to forget someone?”

Xue Mu was silent.

“So this time ah, it’s just so strange.” Yue Xiaochan turned her head to look at him, her smile remained the same: “It’s like remembering only takes a glance, while forgetting takes a lifetime.”

Xue Mu’s heart was shaken, a thousand words were choked in his throat, but he couldn’t send out half a syllable.

Yue Xiaochan said as if nothing had happened, “Don’t be so silent, always wanting to keep a distance from Xiaochan, how can you say you’re uncle and nephew, right?”

Xue Mu could only say, “These words are meaningful, I don’t know how to respond for a moment.”

“Uncle is not such a mute and speechless person.” Yue Xiaochan suddenly used “uncle” again and said with a smile, “This kind of nerd can’t let people like, just like that who …… you see.”

Xue Mu followed her finger and turned his head to look.

A seventeen or eighteen year old white-clothed girl, carrying a long sword on her back, with a thin and upright figure, slowly walked into the city gates step by step. White clothes but coarse cloth woven, washed white and patches, under the feet of grass shoes also have holes, looks very shabby, a typical ascetic feeling, but no one dares to show half a bit of discrimination to her, on the contrary, solemnly hold their breath.

Because her whole person is like a sword out of the sheath, between the phoenix eyes sharp intent, firm footsteps accompanied by the heavenly sword intent, Sen Sen hair dispersion, cut passersby’s face are raw pain. In front of that stern sword intent, all the shabby simplicity appeared so insignificant, even the most gorgeous decorations couldn’t compare.

At this moment, Xue Mu could really understand why even Xue Qingqiu’s world-class cultivation said that she couldn’t protect him.

This kind of overwhelming sword intent simply seeped into the bone marrow, and this was still the result of being suppressed by the formation of 50% of the power. He had no doubt that outside this young girl would be able to cause herself a hundred holes and thousands of sores with just a single look, and the gods would not be able to protect him down.

Yue Xiaochan tsked: “She actually also came to the capital …… Is it that Miles Worship Sword happened to pass by, or did she come to look for trouble with the uniform incident ……”

Xue Mu looked cautious: “Who is she?”

“Mu Jian Li, the head of the righteousness path’s potential dragon ten jie, the most outstanding disciple of this generation of the Questioning Sword Sect and even the entire righteousness path, the genius who is most likely to merge the path with the sword.”

“So she is Mu Jianli.” Xue Mu recalled Qian Qian’s dress from the day before yesterday, and sure enough, it was exactly the same as this, except that this kind of sword intent, not to mention Qian Qian, would be difficult to imitate no matter who came.

Seeing Xue Mu’s cautious look, Yue Xiaochan smiled cheekily, “No need to be so nervous, Mu Jianli’s sword path has not yet been realized, and when it’s really realized, it will return to the basics, and won’t be the same as a sword person.”

Xue Mu couldn’t help but ask: “Can you beat her?”

Yue Xiaochan looked up and thought, “Two days ago, I definitely couldn’t beat her, but I can’t say for sure now.”

“Uh?”

“The moment someone changed from Xue Mu to an uncle, Xiaochan returned to her spirit and transformed into an embodiment, successfully breaking through the barrier and becoming the youngest ever embodied expert on earth.” Yue Xiaochan leisurely said, “Mu Jianli is only seventeen years old, and even if he is a genius, his cultivation is only a small realm higher than me. With this cultivation gap, I am not afraid of her. Even if I can’t beat her, I can still leave her with unforgettable memories for the rest of her life.”

Xue Mu’s mouth was half-open, his sideways head surveying Yue Xiaochan, his heart truly shocked. What kind of concept is this Nima that the human race has ever …… had?

This kind of unprecedented genius, no wonder Xue Qingqiu was so nervous at that time, if she really broke Xiaochan’s hope of martial arts, then it can really be said that there is no way to atone for a hundred deaths, and it is light to be chopped into mush.

But when he thought of Xiaochan’s advancement process, he was the catalyst and witnessed the whole process, he really didn’t know what kind of emotion he was feeling.

“Speaking of this, uncle’s credit is not small, how is it? What’s it like?” Yue Xiaochan was also asking this question, smiling with two sweet dimples.

Xue Mu held back a sentence for half a day, “Is the thigh missing a pendant? It will shout six-six-six.”

“?” Yue Xiaochan couldn’t understand this kind of stunt, but she also knew that he was hiding his mind in the form of a joke, so she didn’t force it, so she laughed and said, “Master is the real thigh, so you can hold it well.”

While speaking, the two of them brushed past Mu Jian Li.

Mu Jian Li suddenly stood still and said in a low voice: “This sister is so young that she has a five-embodied soul, there is none in the world. Seeing this moon phantom star hidden, the meaning of the shadowy night, could it be that Star Moon Sect Yue is the young sect master?”

“Huh?” Yue Xiaochan didn’t look back, “Sister Mu, go slowly, ten feet ahead of you there is a weapon store, inside the sword, hurry up to worship, may be able to realize the best skills. Little sister still has important things to do, I will find sister for tea later.”

As she said that, she pulled Xue Mu and drifted out of the city, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Mu Jian Li stood in place for a while, the eyebrows slightly knit, whispered to himself: “Strange …… This thought the sword heart since the start, Mori and move, is to see a strong enemy and heart happy, but carefully distinguish, actually is aimed at the man beside her …… That person Obviously all no cultivation …… this is why?”

Standing still for a moment, it seems that he can not understand, shook his head and continued to move forward.

Over there, Yue Xiaochan pulled Xue Mu floating out of the city, until out of the range of the formation before landing in a flutter, turning his head to look at Xue Mu smiled, “Your cultivation should be put on the agenda, it’s really too weak.”

Xue Mu let out a “hmm”, “Go back and start practicing, otherwise I really don’t think I’ll live more than a few days, if she stabbed me with her sword just now, you most likely won’t be able to protect me.”

Yue Xiaochan laughed, “You think I’m talking about safety? No it’s not.”

“Then what is it?”

“Master’s physical cultivation has reached the extreme of mortals, and his body does not have the slightest weakness. To you, Master is simply like a stone woman, you can’t even break her body, your long-cherished wish will be hard to fulfill.”

“……” Knowing full well that their Star Moon Sect viewed these issues as normal academics and talked about them casually, on the contrary, Xue Mu, who came from the modern era, was said to be in a state of distress, and said with his mouth out of place, “Where do I have any long-cherished wishes ……”

“No?” Yue Xiaochan glanced at him flirtatiously, “Then what is the story of Qing’er and Xiao Mu?”

“Cough …… it’s actually nothing.”

Yue Xiaochan didn’t get serious with him, turned her head to look at the road ahead and leisurely said, “I also want a story, the kind where I’m the heroine, and it has to be very fragrant as well.”

Xue Mu huffed, “It’s not appropriate for a child.”

“Really?” Yue Xiaochan laughed again, that smile was demonic to the extreme, with indescribable sarcasm, “Then what is your hand, pulling at this moment?”

Xue Mu’s heart jumped, only then did he realize that since being pulled out of the city by her, he had been holding her small hand since the beginning, and had never let go for a moment.
