A private room on the seventh floor of a teahouse in Zhongzhou.
Bai Nanxian was sitting on the sofa with an expressionless face. Opposite him, a beautiful girl with black hair tied behind her head was holding a small cup and lowered her eyebrows, as if a child who had made a mistake did not dare to look up.
The small guzheng that she carried all the way down the mountain from Yunzong stood beside it, wrapped in black cloth, and its true appearance was hidden.
Bai Nanxian said in a stern tone: "If we don't let you go down the mountain, you have to go down."
"You don't listen to me. As a senior brother, you haven't listened to me since you were a child."
"But what about father? Are you ignoring his words?"
"Leaving Yunzong without authorization and carrying this broken piano on your back, is Zhongzhou really a playground for you to play as you please?"
Bai Nanxian raised his voice and said with an angry look on his face: "The battle for destiny has begun. The six major forces are secretly competing, and they are all looking for each other's weaknesses."
"Take Kunlun as an example. Lingxi was injured repeatedly because of the misdeeds of her new apprentice."
"You're not here to help me, you're here to cause trouble for me."
"Pei Shu, let me say this one last time, if you still regard me as your senior brother and Yunzong as your home, then go back to me honestly."
Bai Nanxian couldn't refuse and said: "You are born with a nine-tailed destiny. If your luck is perfect in the future, you will be able to monopolize half of your luck."
"If I die in this fate battle, Yun Zong will still have you."
"You are Yunzong's last trump card, our last hope, do you understand?"
The girl named Pei Shu has a weak personality, and her eyes have turned red when faced with the scolding of her senior brother.
She held the cup in one hand and grasped the corner of her clothes with the other, silently, like the grass swaying in winter.
Bai Nanxian was unmoved and said: "I am the Young Sect Master of the Luck Sect. Even if I don't go down the mountain, the battle over Luck will still affect me."
"My father sees this point more clearly than Ji Xuanqing. The so-called self-preservation simply won't work."
"If I am lucky enough to win this battle, the combined luck of you and me will be enough to keep the Yun Sect prosperous for two hundred years."
"Even if I failed, no one would have thought that Yun Zong still had half the luck to consolidate the foundation of Shanmen."
"It's not that senior brother is cruel to you, it's because the future of Yunzong doesn't allow you and me to mess around."
Bai Nanxian's tone slowed down, and he prayed with an open face: "Junior sister, please listen to my advice, okay? Don't let Yunzong be destroyed in our hands."
Pei Shu lowered her head and said nothing, turning the cup in her hand in a daze.
Bai Nanxian lit a cigarette irritably, exhaled mist, and said in a cold voice: "If you don't obey me, I will deal with you according to the rules."
Pei Shu cried silently, and the tea splashed on the floor.
She choked softly and said, "I miss you and want to be with you."
"Senior brother, I will be very well-behaved. Can you arrange a place for me to live without me going anywhere?"
"As long as I can see you, wash and cook for you, make tea and play the piano for you, I will be satisfied."
"I promise that I will not be a burden to you and will not let those forces use me against you."
"Look, I even carried "Xingyue" down the mountain. Don't you love listening to me play the most?"
She held the cup tightly, looking pitiful.
Bai Nanxian said indifferently: "There is no room for negotiation on this matter. Father said that we must send you back as soon as possible."
"I will go through this muddy water alone, and I will never involve you in it."
"Whether you hate me or blame me, it's up to you."
After saying that, Bai Nanxian stood up and walked straight towards the door.
Pei Shu looked gloomy and said: "Senior brother, if you die, I will not live alone."
Bai Nanxian stopped suddenly when he reached the door and turned around suddenly.
He stared at the slender figure on the sofa with hazy eyes, moved but also filled with a touch of uncontrollable anger.
What moved him was the girl's undying friendship for him.
