Chapter 63 Qinghuan's Heart Is With Her Senior Brother
Xu Nian didn't sleep well that night.
I always feel like I'm being held back by something.
Then, my face was wet.
Very strange feeling.
When he woke up, he found that his junior brother Wu Qinghuan had already changed into his robe.
He is meditating and cultivating on the side.
Good morning, senior brother.
"morning…"
Xu Nian greeted him listlessly.
He rubbed his head.
I sat up groggily and wiped my face.
There was nothing on his face.
The wetness in my dream was indeed just an illusion.
He stretched and yawned deeply.
She sat up and looked at Wu Qinghuan.
"Huh?" Xu Nian seemed to have noticed something.
He frowned.
My junior's pectoral muscles were really big yesterday, but they seem to have disappeared today?
This thing can shrink in size?
Xu Nian wanted to ask, but considering her junior brother's terrible temper, she hesitated.
Forget it, I'd rather not ask.
There's no benefit in asking about this kind of thing.
That would actually cause trouble.
After a quick wash and packing, the two left the inn.
Walk with a sword.
Heading towards the destination.
Although Xu Nian is currently only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, the amount of spiritual energy stored in his body is already incredibly large, reaching a terrifying level.
One can control a flying sword and fly for several hours.
You only need to rest once a day.
Before we knew it, it was noon.
The sun was scorching the earth.
The two stopped.
"Let's rest in the woods below for a while. The sun is too strong. Flying under the sun will cause us to lose a lot of spiritual energy."
"Ok."
For some reason, Xu Nian felt that her junior brother had become much more well-behaved today.
This is a good thing.
The flying sword landed, and the two casually found an open space to rest.
Wu Qinghuan skillfully pulled two sweet potatoes out of her pocket.
It's cooked.
This action left Xu Nian speechless.
He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully at his junior brother.
She tugged at his cheek again.
"What are you doing!" Wu Qinghuan said angrily.
"Let me see who you really are! Reveal your true form! Third Senior Sister!"
"I am your uncle."
"Little Qinghuan, where did you learn this bad habit from? How did you learn to swear?"
Wu Qinghuan ignored him.
They gathered some branches, piled them together, and started a fire.
I made a simple grill.
Then, he placed the sweet potatoes on top and roasted them with great skill.
"Wow, Qinghuan, your technique is pretty good."
"Technique?" Wu Qinghuan glanced at him and curled her lip. "Rogue."
Xu Nian was bewildered.
What did I say that made me a scoundrel?
The sweet potatoes were already cooked; the fire was just used to heat them up.
Actually, Xu Nian felt that this thing was the same whether it was eaten hot or cold.
But my junior brother felt that this was more interesting.
As for what it feels like...?
It might be the wonderful feeling of two people doing something silly together.
Of course, she never said this to Xu Nian.
Anyway, even if I explained it to my idiot senior brother, he wouldn't understand.
"Okay, here you go."
"Qinghuan, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
Wu Qinghuan didn't even look up. "It's not something I should talk about."
"Ah, so my senior brother said... eh? He's not going to tell us?"
"It doesn't sound like a nice thing to say."
The junior apprentice nibbled on the sweet potato like a hamster.
Her fair face puffed up.
Somewhat cute.
"Fine, go ahead and tell me."
"It's nothing, just keep your distance from Third Senior Sister, don't let her lead you astray."
"Corrupted? What do you mean, senior brother?"
"For example... focusing all your attention on sweet potatoes."
Wu Qinghuan shook her head.
Wiped his mouth.
She spoke slowly and deliberately, "Senior brother, there's no need to worry. Qinghuan's mind is on other things."
"Oh? In what aspect?"
Wu Qinghuan didn't answer this time, but just looked up at him.
Then he lowered his head and continued eating sweet potatoes.
Xu Nian was bewildered.
What does this mean? Is this the answer?
But you didn't say anything.
The two brothers rested in the woods for a while.
We continued our journey when the afternoon sun was no longer so intense.
The flying sword whistled past.
A few hours passed quickly.
"Senior brother, it seems we've arrived. Is that Fengcui City?"
From the air, the two could see the city in front of them from a distance.
This city is much larger than the previous few ordinary small towns.
There will be even more shops in the city.
As they approached on their swords, just before reaching the city, several figures appeared to float through the air.
The person in the lead was a middle-aged woman.
Although she is getting on in years, she still retains her charm.
She has an excellent figure.
She smiled and said, "I presume you two young friends are disciples of the Sword Sect."
Xu Nian nodded.
Judging from the woman's attire, he guessed, "Fellow Daoist, are you the city lord of this city?"
The woman nodded and smiled.
The city lord of Fengcui City is a woman named Sun Meng, who was once a disciple of a cultivation sect.
This is something that many people already know.
This woman descended the mountain to gain experience and fell in love with an ordinary man.
Get married and have children.
Then the mortal passed away a hundred years later, and his children also met with an accident.
The woman took over her deceased husband's place.
Protect Fengcui City.
To protect the beautiful memories the two once shared.
He was originally a Golden Core Realm expert, but the path of cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind.
A hundred years passed by in a flash.
The former Golden Core cultivator is now only at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.
He was similar to the two young talents in front of him.
"My name is Sun Meng. I presume you two young friends have also seen the information in that case file?"
"Hmm, I wonder if Senior Sun has any guidance?"
The woman smiled and shook her head, leading Xu Nian and the others to the city lord's mansion.
He said this as he spoke.
"I wouldn't call it giving pointers, but this man is a prominent figure in the city who often does good deeds and is considered a great person by the locals. He used his connections to find me, and I sent people to investigate, but we didn't find any clues."
"But there were also some gains."
After a moment of hesitation, Sun Meng said, "That crying was not an illusion, but a real sound. The people I sent also heard the crying, which came from a well."
"I think this is the work of a demon, and not an ordinary demon."
Although Sun Meng is no longer the Golden Core stage cultivator she once was.
But she was once a true disciple of a cultivation sect.
He now also has the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment.
Her idea was still quite useful.
"The sound of crying, coming from the well?" Xu Nian frowned. "Could it be that a demon is hiding in the well? Senior, could you send someone down to investigate?"
“They were sent out, and many of them were sent, but none of them ever returned.”
Sun thought for a moment and said, "More than a hundred people have gone down there, and I even went down myself, but there was nothing in the well. I didn't find anything."
Xu Nian was stunned for a moment, her expression turning somewhat unpleasant.
This information isn't in the case file.
If that's the case, then it's no ordinary monster.
Moreover, it is a powerful and evil spirit.
Xu Nian glanced at Wu Qinghuan beside him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Qinghuan, go back to the sect and tell the Hall of Affairs what's going on. I'll stay here and see what's going on with that monster in the well."
"No." Wu Qinghuan pouted and shook her head.
Xu thought about it and felt pain.
Why is this rebellious junior brother so rebellious!
What happened to your promise to be obedient and well-behaved?!
