Xiao Che's eyes turned cold, and he looked up, only to see two young men in the costumes of the Life Spirit Palace. They were not handsome in appearance, and their facial features were ordinary, but their arrogant postures were almost to the point of showing off by their nostrils.
"Who are these two people?" Xiao Che thought about it carefully, but there was no impression in his mind. It seemed that he did not know these two people, but if he did not know each other, why would they take the initiative to provoke him?
Xiao Che shook his head, confused, and had no intention of getting involved with the two people. He turned around without saying a word.
"Wait a minute -" Seeing Xiao Che planning to leave, one of the young men became a little angry and shouted loudly, "Xiao Che, have you forgotten who we are?"
"Oh, who are you?" Xiao Che really had no impression of these two people, but seeing that they looked very familiar to him, he couldn't help but be a little curious.
"You!" The young man felt a heavy feeling in his chest. He didn't know how to talk for a moment, but another person said: "You loser really doesn't remember us! I am Zhang Yao, and he is Feng Zhenyu. I was a graduate of the Wusheng Academy two years ago.
Compare……"
As soon as the young man named Feng Zhenyu finished speaking, Zhang Yao glared at him fiercely.
Zhang Yao? Feng Zhenyu? Wushengyuan Competition? Xiao Che thought about it seriously. After hearing his mention, he realized that he had actually heard the names of these two people. It seemed that they were at the Wushengyuan Competition two years ago.
Seeing the look of realization on Xiao Che's face, Feng Zhenyu smiled quite proudly and said, "Now you think of us!"
Xiao Che was a little stunned, and felt funny in his heart. He remembered that two years ago, in the Wusheng Academy Competition, these two people must have been defeated by his subordinates! Now they actually took the initiative to mention this matter to awaken their memories. They really shouldn't be called crazy.
Tiao's memory is still too poor. At that moment, Xiao Che suppressed a smile and said, "Sorry, I don't pay much attention to my defeated opponents."
"You actually said that we are your defeated generals?" Zhang Yao was furious and looked at Xiao Che's angry face.
"Hey, we did lose to him." Feng Zhenyu pulled Zhang Yao's sleeves to signal him not to make a big show of it.
Zhang Yao was about to be angered by his pig teammates. His expression changed and he said confidently: "That was before, not now. Who is not young, ignorant, arrogant and flamboyant?"
Listening to the two people's illogical words and watching them singing along, Xiao Che felt even more amused, but he didn't care what they had done to provoke him in the first place.
In front of the Master's Mansion, there were many disciples coming and going, and they quickly noticed this scene.
"Aren't these Zhang Yao and Feng Zhenyu? Who is the boy talking to them?" A core disciple asked the people around him.
"Apparently his name is Xiao Che. He has defeated Zhang Yao and Zhang Yao before."
"Although Zhang Yao and Zhang Yao have weird personalities, they are quite strong. They can be considered masters at the Yuexi Festival. Who is this Xiao Che who has defeated them before? He looks like he has not yet entered the Qi Dynasty.
Destiny."
"Who is He Fang Sheng? He's just a waste. What he awakened is the Life-Destroying Card. It's impossible to even become a Life Master." A well-informed disciple said disdainfully.
"So that's how it is." Everyone was stunned. Many disciples shook their heads and left. They were all fortune masters. How could a small character in the body training realm come into their eyes? Only some disciples had nothing to do and planned to sit and watch.
Put on a good show.
Xiao Che felt the eyes around him and felt bitter in his heart. Thanks to Zhang Yao and the others, he became the center of attention again.
"Hey, Xiao Che, I heard that you awakened the life-destroying card. I won't bully you. I suppressed my own cultivation. Do you dare to fight me?"
At this time, Zhang Yao said to Xiao Che with quite arrogance.
"What are you planning to do?" Feng Zhenyu asked.
"Of course you are trying to regain your position before he reaches the destiny realm. Do you want to accept that you have always been his loser?" Zhang Yao said without any secret.
"Well, you're right. Xiao Che, I want to challenge you too!" Feng Zhenyu suddenly felt that what Zhang Yao said was absolutely right. This was probably what he meant by taking advantage of his illness to kill him.
Xiao Che has a sharp ear and eyes, and a keen spiritual sense. What's more, Zhang Yao and the two did not hide their intentions at all, so their words were naturally heard clearly by Xiao Che.
Are you treating yourself like a soft persimmon? Xiao Che raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "Sorry, I'm not interested."
After saying that, he turned around and left, giving Zhang Yao and Feng Zhenyu a look of indifference. This attitude looked like contempt in their eyes, as if they had a sense of superior contempt. In fact, Xiao Che did not deliberately show this.
As for his secondary posture, just practicing "Sun Burning" and "Moon Leading" for more than ten days has caused some changes in his aura. He has a sense of superiority and domineering, coupled with the cold indifference in his black pupils, which makes him
He showed an arrogant and cold temperament inadvertently.
"This boy named Xiao Che is quite arrogant. Now things are getting a little interesting."
"Zhang Yao has always had a bad temper. This kid will probably suffer a lot." All the core disciples had the attitude of watching a good show.
As expected, Xiao Che's attitude somewhat angered Zhang Yao and Feng Zhenyu.
"Okay, this kid actually dares to look down on us!" Feng Zhenyu said angrily.
"I still think I am a genius, but I am just a waste who has awakened the Life-Destroying Card. How can I look down on us? Let me teach him a lesson and let him know what a real genius is!" Zhang Yao said and planned to take action without caring.
This is the square in front of the Master's Mansion.
"Look at me cracking gold and breaking jade claws!" Zhang Yao suddenly had metallic energy all over his body, and his five fingers spread out into claws, shining with a cold metallic luster in the sunlight. He was performing a high-grade human-level gold-type martial skill.
Martial arts are good at attacking, and the attack power using metallic energy is even more powerful. Although Zhang Yao has been keeping his word and suppressing his cultivation, the cracking gold and jade claw still has some low-level spiritual level martial arts.
So powerful.
"Stop - who dares to make a move in front of the Master's Mansion?!" The black-clothed guard did not expect that Zhang Yao would take action suddenly, so he immediately shouted to stop, and at the same time, he flashed his body, moved his palms, and rushed out.
Zhang Yao and Xiao Che were not far apart. Almost as soon as he made a move, he was already behind Xiao Che. The dark golden light on his five fingers flashed and he grabbed Xiao Che's back like a tearing wind.
The guard in black saw that something was not going well. If there was blood in front of the Master's Mansion, the impact would be too great. If he neglected his duties in a small way, it would be a big deal if he caused the Master's Mansion to lose face. When he thought of this, his speed increased a few points.
Although the guards in black were fast, no one expected that Xiao Che was even faster!
Just when the dark gold claw strike was about to hit his back, a flash of cyan light flashed under his feet, Jingfeng Youyun's body technique was quickly displayed, and as if a breeze blew, Xiao Che's body disappeared.
In situ.
Zhang Yao's eyes were startled, and the claws of split gold and jade fell instantly.
"Wind and thunder!" Xiao Che's figure appeared strangely behind Zhang Yao, and he suddenly raised his fist. Green wind swirled around his fist, purple lightning flashed, and for a moment it seemed like there was wind and thunder!
Zhang Yao was also very keen. He sensed the sense of danger coming from behind him and knew that he couldn't dodge it, so he didn't dare to hide anything. He immediately used all his true energy to form a metal shield behind him.
"Clang!" A sound like metal hitting each other came, and the metal shield behind Zhang Yao was smashed deeply, and the whole person fell heavily to the hard ground.
The metal life master is good at both attack and defense. Although Xiao Che's punch seemed extremely heavy, after being weakened layer by layer by Zhang Yao's dark gold shield and the metal's true energy, the most it only caused his blood to surge and his back to ache.
It's just painful.
Seeing this, the core disciples who were watching had more or less surprised expressions on their faces, while the black-clothed guards who came to help froze, eyes wide.
There was a bit of surprise in him. Although Zhang Yao had a contemptuous heart, a warrior in the Body Forging Realm could actually avoid the attack of the Master of Qi Ming Realm and still have the energy to fight back. The reaction and speed in this moment were enough.
Amazing.
"But I heard from the two of them that this person has awakened the Life-Destroying Card, and I'm afraid he has no hope of becoming a Life Master." The guard in black felt a little regretful.
The guards in black are responsible for guarding the safety of the Master's Mansion, but they have no management power over the core disciples. Therefore, Zhang Yao took action in front of the Master's Mansion. The only thing he could do was to stop this power.
"You lost!" Xiao Che stood aside with a stern expression. This sneak attack from behind made him very unhappy. If this place was not in front of the Master's Mansion, he would definitely take the opportunity to beat this kid violently.
At this moment, Zhang Yao was lying on the ground, face down, with his limbs spread out. Although he was not injured, he looked quite embarrassed.
"Zhang Yao, how long are you going to lie there?" Feng Zhenyu covered his face, feeling embarrassed for Zhang Yao.
At this time, Zhang Yao suddenly stood up from the ground, looked at Xiao Che with burning eyes, and snorted coldly: "You win this time! But I don't accept it. I heard that you will participate in the Yuexi Festival.
Then I will show you my true strength!"
Before Xiao Che could open his mouth, he heard a strange woman's mocking voice.
"A core disciple of the Mingshifu who is dignified, but lost to a waste in the body-forging realm. I really don't know how someone like you became a core disciple?"
Everyone followed the sound and saw a woman wearing a gorgeous dress walking over. Her appearance was pretty and pretty, but her lips were slightly thinner and her eyebrows were narrow and pointed.
This woman's words were indeed unpleasant. She opened her mouth and cursed Xiao Che and both of them.
"What the hell! You stinky bitch!" Before Xiao Che could react, he heard Zhang Yao squinting and scolding him back unceremoniously, which made everyone's hearts tremble.
"Zhang Yao is indeed Zhang Yao, even she dares to scold her!" A core disciple wiped his forehead.
"I respect you as a man." The core disciples' eyes trembled one by one. Not only them, but also Xiao Che secretly gave Zhang Yao a thumbs up.
"What did you call me?!" The woman's beautiful eyes widened, and there was a trace of anger on her pretty face, and she said in a cold voice.
"Smelly bitch, you are deaf! Whatever you heard is what you heard!" As he said this, Zhang Yao ignored the woman's sudden change of expression. He pulled Feng Zhenyu and started to walk towards the street outside the fortune teller's house.
"Hey, I haven't fought with Xiao Che yet?" Feng Zhenyu was a little dissatisfied. He actually ignored the arrogant woman.
"Why are you fighting? Your strength is about the same as mine. What if you can't beat him when you suppress your cultivation? Wouldn't it be embarrassing?" Zhang Yao spoke righteously, as if he was thinking about you.
"That's true." Feng Zhenyu rolled his eyes and thought it made sense. In fact, what Zhang Yao really thought in his heart was that he had lost Xiao Che. If Feng Zhenyu defeated Xiao Che, wouldn't it make him even more embarrassed?
Xiao Che watched the two people walking away blankly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. These two people were really weird to a certain extent. But when they left casually, didn't they put themselves in front of this troublesome woman?
"Are you that good-for-nothing Xiao Che? You really don't look good." The arrogant woman raised her arrogant chin and said scornfully. As soon as Zhang Yao and Zhang Yao left, she decisively transferred her anger to Xiao Che.
"Are you a mad dog? Whoever you catch will bite you." Xiao Che was speechless. He was provoked again and again today, and naturally he felt angry in his heart. He has never seen this woman before.
But she came to provoke him and used such harsh words. Naturally, Xiao Che would not speak nicely. If she thought that she was easy to bully, Xiao Che would not mind letting her know that once he became arrogant, he would be even more arrogant than Zhang Yao.
.
"The ruthless people who defeated Zhang Yao are different! One is better than the other!" The core disciples who were watching felt their hearts beating faster. They met all ruthless people today. It was really exciting.
Of course, some core disciples couldn't stand his attitude and sneered: "He was so quick-tongued for a while, did he think he was Zhang Yao? He probably didn't even know how he died in the end."
The arrogant woman stopped talking, her eyes turned cold, and her pretty face became cold. She was insulted one after another. How could she let it go if she was so arrogant? In an instant, a cyan halo seemed to shine through the gorgeous dress.
When the black-clothed guard saw this, he sighed in his heart. This Xiao Che was really a troublemaker. He had offended two core disciples in a row, and he was about to step forward to stop him. But at this moment, another clear and sweet female voice came.
Come, but what is different from before is that the voice is full of surprise.
"Xiao Che——"
This voice stopped the guards in black from coming out to stop him, and also interrupted the arrogant woman's thoughts of attacking.
Xiao Che followed the sound, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw a girl in a light yellow dress standing in front of the vermilion gate of the Life Master's Mansion with a smile. Her face was as beautiful as before, her skin was as creamy, and her eyes were as big as two sparkling stars.
The glowing black pearls and the red little mouth were smiling, looking innocent and lively. Almost instantly, Xiao Che remembered this girl. It was the lovely girl who had awakened the white jade fate card on the day the Life Spirit Palace was awakened——
Yun Xiaoyi.
"It's her." Xiao Che raised his eyebrows. He was still quite impressed with her, but her appearance today was very different from that of that day in the Life Spirit Hall. She was a little more noble and elegant, and less timid and shy.
The only thing that remains unchanged is the innocence and loveliness that disappeared before.
"It's Yun Xiaoyi!" Before Xiao Che could say hello, the core disciples who were watching were all excited, their eyes were shining, and they wanted to pounce on him immediately.
"Isn't this Junior Sister Yun Xiaoyi?" A core disciple claimed to be handsome and talented. He mustered up the courage to step forward and say hello to Yun Xiaoyi, "Junior Sister Xiaoyi is going to——" Before he could finish his words, but
Seeing Yun Xiaoyi bow slightly to him, she walked straight towards Xiao Che and said with a smile on her pretty face: "Brother Xiao Che, long time no see."
When the core disciple saw this, his eyes almost burst into flames. If he hadn't been concerned about his demeanor in front of Yun Xiaoyi, he might have cursed loudly at this moment. Even so, his eyes fell on Xiao Che rather unkindly.
Xiao Che was startled, not expecting that Yun Xiaoyi would take the initiative to greet him, and then smiled and said: "Hello, Miss Yun, it's been a long time."
The smile on Yun Xiaoyi's face became brighter after hearing this, and she said happily: "I didn't expect you to still remember me."
Xiao Che was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "I should be the one to say this. You are now the little princess of the Life Spirit Palace. You can still remember me, an unknown junior. I should be happy, but I am ridiculous now."
come out."
After speaking, Xiao Che gestured around with his eyes, only to see that each of the core disciples looked like his own enemies, their eyes wide open with anger, and their expressions were quite unkind.
Yun Xiaoyi also looked around curiously, but the moment she turned her head, warm smiles suddenly broke out on the faces of those disciples. Xiao Che was speechless for a moment at the sudden change of expressions that happened in unison, but as fast as lightning.
"These senior brothers smile very kindly, why can't you smile?" Yun Xiaoyi turned her head and asked in confusion.
Well, what should Xiao Che say? Could it be that if you just say that they will change their faces? Immediately, Xiao Che could only smile lightly and shake his head silently. Yun Xiaoyi looked at Xiao Che's smile, and for some reason, a hint of "..." appeared on her pretty little face.
A faint blush, seeming a little shy.
Seeing Xiao Che and Yun Xiaoyi chatting and laughing, the hearts of the core disciples around them were broken. They looked at Xiao Che with more and more hatred. At this time, there was another look that was even more piercing and cold.
"Do you two think I don't exist?" The cold voice of the arrogant woman reached Xiao Che's ears. Only then did Xiao Che remember that the arrogant woman was still there.
Next to him, he glanced at Yun Xiaoyi, then at the arrogant woman, and thought to himself: They are both beautiful women, why is there such a big gap?
Yun Xiaoyi heard the sound and looked over, as if he knew this woman. He bowed to her and said with a smile: "Sister Yun Lan, hello."
The woman named Yun Lan smiled when she heard this, but there was a sinister flash in her eyes. It seemed that she didn't want to offend Yun Xiaoyi, so she also smiled and said: "Sister Xiaoyi, I haven't seen you for a while, please come and stay safe!"
"Thank you for your relationship with sister Yunlan. I am very good." Yun Xiaoyi smiled brightly and continued: "I just saw that sister Yunlan and brother Xiao Che had a dispute. There must be a misunderstanding. Can sister be tolerant and stop worrying about this matter?
."
Xiao Che's eyes moved. The little girl who was submissive at that time had really grown up a lot, and her speech was also logical. It can be seen that while the Life Spirit Palace was cultivating her cultivation, it also spent a lot of money on teaching speech and etiquette.
Mental effort.
A flash of arrogance flashed in Yun Lan's eyes. She flicked her sleeves and chuckled: "Since Sister Xiaoyi has spoken, I won't care about this person. However, this person is from a lowly background and his birth is unknown. Your status is noble, or
Don't associate with him, lest you tarnish your identity."
Hearing Yun Lan's words, Yun Xiaoyi's face showed a look of indignation, and she frowned and said: "Sister Yun Lan, why do you want to insult my friend?"
"Insult? Does he deserve it?" Yun Lan smiled proudly and openly, not caring about Yun Xiaoyi's emotional changes at all.
When Xiao Che heard this, his eyes were cold, and he suddenly looked at Yun Xiaoyi and asked, "Who is this woman? Is she the maid of the Life Master's Mansion?"
As soon as these words came out, Yun Xiaoyi almost laughed out loud. From Yun Lan's clothes, words and deeds, it was easy to tell that she was a disciple of the Life Master Academy, and she was also a child of a noble family. However, Xiao Che deliberately said that Yun Lan was a disciple of the Life Master Academy.
maid to fight back.
"What did you say?!" Yun Lan's face was as cold as frost. She could hardly believe her ears. This good-for-nothing Xiao Che actually called her a lowly maid.
"You are young, domineering, and deaf. How will you get married in the future? Xiao Che sneered again.
"You!" Yun Lan came from a noble family and was arrogant. How could she accept Xiao Che's ridicule? There was almost anger in her eyes.
Yun Xiao commented, fearing that the conflict would intensify again, and continued: "Master Xiao, Sister Yun Lan is a young lady of the Feng family and a core disciple of the Master's Mansion. She is not a maid."
"Feng family?" Xiao Che smiled coldly, thinking that no wonder this woman gave him a feeling of disgust from the beginning.
Feng Yunlan seemed to see the look of disgust on Xiao Che's face, she felt angry and sneered coldly: "I don't know where you come from, Amao Agou, you are weak, but with a clever mouth, you first deceived my third brother and
You made a promise of a fight, and now you are hiding behind a woman's back and talking nonsense. It is really powerful. But when you kneel down and beg for mercy on the day of the fight, this sharp mouth can save your life!
"
Feng Yunlan's words were quite harsh, insinuating that Xiao Che was a weakling with clever words. Naturally, Xiao Che couldn't bear it. His eyes were sharp and he sneered: "How is my strength? I don't bother you to worry about it! You'd better treat me first."
Is your hearing problem cured?"
"You!" Feng Yunlan was about to open her mouth to fight back. For some reason, she felt Xiao Che's eyes, and her delicate body suddenly trembled. It was as if the temperature around her had cooled down, and she felt like she had returned to the cold weather for several days. Suddenly, her heart
Half of his anger was dissipated, and instead he became more fearful.
"My young lady is dirtying my ears by talking to a pariah like you." Feng Yunlan was still feeling sad, but her words were still unforgiving. Suddenly she seemed to think of something, and suddenly felt a little happy, secretly thinking that this lowly person in a common area
I'm afraid I don't know that my death is imminent! In that case, why should I be angry with a dying person?
Immediately, Feng Yunlan glanced at Xiao Che with pity and said: "I will obey my sister Xiaoyi and won't argue with you." After saying that, she really left.
Xiao Che felt the change in Feng Yunlan's mood. Although he didn't know why, he still had an extra thought in his heart.
"Thank you Miss Yun for rescuing me this time." Xiao Che cupped his hand and said sincerely. In the situation he was in before, Yun Xiaoyi was still able to speak for himself at the risk of offending Feng Yunlan. This friendship is not insignificant.
precious.
"You don't have to be so polite, haven't you helped me before?" Yun Xiaoyi said softly with a slight blush on her face.
"It's just a small matter, how can we compare it with each other?" Xiao Che shook his head and smiled. On a whim that day, he helped Yun Xiaoyi casually. At most, he gave her a little confidence. It was really not a big deal. Moreover, even without his help, Yun Xiaoyi
I will eventually wake up to the White Jade Life Card.
However, Yun Xiaoyi strongly disagreed with Xiao Che's thoughts and shook her little head desperately, looking particularly charming and cute.
"That's not the case. It's just a small thing to you, but to me it's..." Yun Xiaoyi couldn't continue, her beautiful little face became more and more rosy, and her soft little ears were slightly red.
Yun Xiaoyi was born in a civilian area. Her family was poor and her life was difficult. Not only was she a girl, she was not loved by her parents when she was born. They forced her to do some heavy work and she was not regarded as a daughter at all. Yun Xiaoyi
In order to change the situation, I secretly practiced the exercises without telling my parents. On the Awakening Day, I escaped to participate in the Awakening Ceremony on the pretext of selling vegetables for the family.
Although her life has undergone tremendous changes since she awakened the White Jade Life Card that day. Luxury clothes, fine food, high beds and soft pillows came to her one after another. Everyone around her began to care about her and praise her, but what Yun Xiaoyi misses the most is that time.
The ray of warmth Xiao Che inadvertently brought to her was the first time in twelve years that she felt someone else's real concern for her. So for a long time afterwards, the thing she could not forget the most was what she saw before her.
This handsome young man had helped him once.
Therefore, Yun Xiaoyi felt happy from the bottom of her heart to see Xiao Che again.
Xiao Che never thought that Yun Xiaoyi's reaction was so complicated, so he couldn't help but be surprised, and said with a smile: "Well, since you think it's a big favor, then so be it! But now that you've helped me, we're settled.
"
"This doesn't count, I still want to repay you." Yun Xiaoyi said seriously with her big innocent eyes.
"Repay?" Xiao Che laughed dumbly, shook his head and said, "Just treat me to a delicious meal."
"Well, okay," Yun Xiaoyi said with a smile, "When?"
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it, let's do it today!" Xiao Che nodded.
Yun Xiaoyi nodded happily.
At this time, Xiao Che's mind suddenly appeared about Shi Cheng, and he secretly wondered why he had forgotten this matter. Then he looked a little apologetic and said, "Miss Yun, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat today?"
"Are you okay?" Yun Xiaoyi heard a hint of gloom in her bright eyes.
"Yes." Xiao Che looked apologetic at her appearance and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, I will cook with my own hands. Please have a taste of my cooking."
The cooking skills Xiao Che learned from his mother were not as good as Xie Wanqing's, but they were still delicious.
When Yun Xiaoyi heard Xiao Che say this, she immediately wiped away her previous disappointment and seemed to be even happier. She said naughtily: "Then we agreed, no lies are allowed." Xiao Che couldn't help but laugh, looking at Yun Xiaoyi's happy look.
The irritability gradually disappeared.
"Then I'll take my leave first." Xiao Che felt worried in his heart, then he said goodbye with a smile, turned around and left.
"Well, see you tomorrow!" Looking at Xiao Che's retreating figure, Yun Xiaoyi's face showed a look of joy and excitement. She seemed to be looking forward to meeting again tomorrow. However, little did she know that after this separation, it would be a long time before the two of them saw each other again.
