Chapter 69: Commitment

Heavenly Sword 69

"That's it, I keep a straight face all day and don't talk much! Okay, don't talk about you big idiot, since you woke up, then I have to tell Sister Ye earlier, so that she won't worry all day long!" It's just that as soon as she made a move, she was stopped by Ye Xiaotian.

"Stupid Xiaoxue, you ...... Do you mean that Sister Shi'er has forgiven me?"

"Hmph, that's not already, but you're so badly injured now, Sister Ye can't lose her temper with you. Xiaoxue replied coldly, but seeing that Ye Xiaotian's expression seemed to be a little nervous, she couldn't help but be relieved again: "Okay, if you have anything to tell Sister Ye, now you can lie down in peace!"

After Xiaoxue left, the room was completely quiet. Ye Xiaotian turned his head slightly to look outside the house, and found that the front yard, which was originally very lively, had now become deserted, and for a long time, there was not a trace of other people's voices.

"It seems that they have all returned to their respective doors, even Senior Brother and them!" Ye Xiaotian looked at the empty bed on the left again, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Then, he heard a gentle voice like water, "You're sighing again, this is not good for your body!" Ye Xiaotian was startled, turned his head sideways suddenly, and then saw a fiery red shadow pacing with light steps, slowly walking into the house.

I saw that the person who came looked at him with a warm smile on his face, seemingly relaxed and casual. However, Ye Xiaotian noticed that her eye bags were swollen and her eyes were bloodshot, obviously before this, not only did she not sleep well, but she also cried a lot. Ye Xiaotian looked at her red and swollen eyes but tried to pretend to be happy, and he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. I had to call out in an astringent voice, "Sister Shi'er." ”

The person who came was Ye Shi'er, who had not slept for almost a day and a night, and finally rested for an hour after following Xiaoxuedi's advice, and then she couldn't sleep anymore. When Xiaoxue found her, she was in the kitchen bringing some food for Xiaoxue, and when she heard that Ye Xiaotian woke up, she hurried over.

Ye Shi'er did not respond immediately after hearing Ye Xiaotian's call, but looked at Ye Xiaotian deeply, her eyes revealed endless complexity, she seemed to want to see through what was hidden in Ye Xiaotian's clear eyes, however, she looked at it for a long time, but in addition to clarity, there was only a thick sense of guilt.

She was still accusing Ye Xiaotian just now, but at this time, she also sighed, and then she put the things in her hand on the table, walked slowly to the bed, slowly held Ye Xiaotian's hand hidden in the quilt, and shouted deeply and cautiously: "Xiaotian?"

This call seemed to fill the rift between them a few days ago. It's just that Ye Xiaotian knows that it is difficult for them to return to the carefree days of the past, because there is clear caution in her tone, and there is a trace of caution in her eyes, and when she holds her hand, there is clearly a trace of trembling.

"She's scared, she's scared of me?" Ye Xiaotian suddenly had this thought in his mind. He couldn't figure out that Sister Shi'er, who took care of him as a younger brother when he was a child, and often teased, bullied, and taught himself a lesson, was actually afraid of himself at the moment. Even though she cried and worried about herself when she was unconscious, when she woke up, she showed a trace of fear. This is something that Ye Xiaotian never thought of. He would rather that when the two meet, Sister Shi'er will lose her temper with him and scold him, and he doesn't want her to be so afraid of him.

"Why is she afraid of me?" Ye Xiaotian muttered to himself, and then he remembered the scene in the ring again.

"Yes, she must still be afraid of me that day, afraid of the evil black gas of the waning moon. He thought to himself, and suddenly he realized that the waning moon, which had been by his side, was not by his side at the moment. He subconsciously swept his side with his left hand, but he didn't touch anything.

"Are you looking for your sword?" Ye Shi'er noticed his slight movements and couldn't help but ask.

“...... Hmm!" Ye Xiaotian hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Is it important to you?" Ye Shi'er pursed her lips and asked again.

And Ye Xiaotian also nodded again.

"That's it!" Ye Shi'er let out a breath, and her expression became a little heavier. Then she let go of Ye Xiaotian's hand and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, Senior Brother, after seeing how powerful you are, they were full of curiosity about your sword, so when you were unconscious, they took that sword back to Zixia Peak without authorization!"

Her voice was extremely gentle and cautious, but it deeply pierced Ye Xiaotian's heart. When did the two of us become such outsiders, we even had to apologize for taking something. He wanted to hold her hand so much, and said resolutely, even if you want my life at this moment, I will not hesitate to entrust it to you. However, he could only reply in a low voice, "It's okay!"

They were silent, and it seemed that after a long while, Ye Shi'er suddenly patted her head and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I have forgotten what I came to do!" Then she walked to the table and picked up the thing she had placed on it just now. Ye Xiaotian saw that the thing was boxy, and it was actually a wooden lunch box.

"After being in a coma for so many days, you must be very hungry now, let's eat something to warm up first!" Ye Shi'er sat back in front of the bed and said with a smile.

Not to mention Ye Xiaotian, he didn't feel it, but after her reminder, Ye Xiaotian's stomach suddenly rumbled.

"Poof!" Hearing this strange voice, Ye Shi'er finally couldn't help laughing. This smile was really like the sunshine of spring, making Ye Xiaotian's heavy heart melt in an instant. The feeling of depression between the two seemed to be alleviated a lot by this laugh.

"You've got injuries, and it's best not to move, so ...... I'll feed you!" With that, Ye Shi'er leaned over, raised Ye Xiaotian's pillow, and prepared to help him up. Her movements were light and careful, and of course there was a slight tremble. Ye Xiaotian felt her gentle movements, and saw her beautiful face in front of him, and couldn't help but praise in a low voice, "Sister Shi'er, you are so good!"

Ye Shi'er's movements paused obviously, she glanced down at Ye Xiaotian, and said softly: "Xiaotian, you are my younger brother, I should treat you like this!" She started to get busy again, but Ye Xiaotian noticed that her trembling had quietly disappeared. Noticing this, Ye Xiaotian finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Ye Xiaotian had a very happy time at this noon, because this noon made their originally broken sister-brother relationship take a turn again. However, Ye Xiaotian still saw a faint sense of loss from Ye Shi'er's smiling face. He knew that this should be because Qin Feng didn't get the Chengying Pill. So he secretly made a decision.

This night, Ye Xiaotian insisted on coming to the kitchen to eat. Strange to say, he suffered dozens of sword wounds, large and small, and several spells, as well as relatively serious internal injuries. However, in just five days, he was able to get out of bed and walk on his own. Ye Shier also said that she thought he was going to recuperate for a month. Ye Xiaotian also smiled helplessly at this, and he didn't know much about his physique.

When I entered the kitchen, there were only about a dozen people seated in the huge kitchen. It's very different from the crowds of people a few days ago. Ye Xiaotian was not surprised by this, he had already learned from Xiaoxue that most of the disciples had returned to their respective lineages, and those uncles who lived here in Changmen had already entered the Bigu stage and were not used to eat in this kitchen. So he wasn't surprised that there were only a dozen people in this huge kitchen.

When Ye Xiaotian arrived, the dozen or so people were already seated, looking at the three of them, as if they were waiting for them. The dozen or so were all young women, all of them of extraordinary beauty. However, Ye Xiaotian still noticed the familiar white figure at a glance, he couldn't help but cast his gaze, and it happened that the woman was also looking at it at this time, and the eyes of the two met unexpectedly, both of them jumped, and then hurriedly turned their faces away.

Ye Shi'er didn't notice Ye Xiaotian's abnormality, and after she entered the kitchen, she smiled and threw herself into the arms of one of the women, and said lazily: "Senior Sister Yun, you have appeared, Shi'er really wants to kill you!"

The woman who was hugged by Ye Shi'er was the senior sister of Shui Lingfeng, named Yunyun. At this time, when she heard Ye Shi'er's coquettishness, she couldn't help but take a sip and said with a smile: "Didn't you still have dinner together yesterday, you missed me so soon!"

Ye Shi'er smiled again: "Of course, Senior Sister Yun is so beautiful and generous, who doesn't like it?"

Yun smiled and shook his head, but before he could speak, he heard a female disciple on the other side quip: "Senior Sister Ye, since you like Senior Sister Yun so much, then why don't you worship our Water Spirit Peak lineage, and you can stay together every day in the future!"

"Haha, I'm not, most of your Water Spirit Peak cultivators are water and ice techniques, and my past of cultivating fire is not destroyed by you in an instant!" Ye Shi'er smiled and left the embrace of the clouds and sat on a vacant seat.

"Hmm, what did Senior Sister Ye say, I don't think you're afraid of this, but you can't bear your lover!"

"Hmph, Senior Sister Xue knows how to make fun of others and won't tell you. Ye Shi'er's face turned red instantly, and then her eyes rolled, but she suddenly said again: "The reason why I pestered Senior Sister Yun was to speak for my senior brother of Mu Ne." ”

This time it was Yunyun's turn to blush, she took a sip again, stopped everyone's chatter and laughter, and then pointed to Ye Xiaotian, who was already seated, and said, "This is your injured brother, did you stay here with Nagato alone just to take care of him?"

"Hmm!" Ye Shi'er nodded.

"Huh, Senior Sister Ye, although I know that you have good intentions, but you are too bad at taking care of people, why did you let him come out with strips of cloth wrapped all over his body, this will make the wound open!"

"Well, I tried to persuade him, but he didn't listen, and insisted on coming to the kitchen himself, saying that he had something important. ”

"Oh, something important?" Yun Dang even wanted to ask Ye Xiaotian. But she was stopped by Ye Shi'er, "Okay, Senior Sister Yun, don't be so curious, let's talk about it, why isn't Uncle Qiuhan here?"

Hearing this, Yun glanced at Ye Shi'er, but also stopped the idea of asking, and replied: "The injuries suffered by Senior Sister Mo Ning two days ago have almost healed since today, so Master and her old man have already gone to the backyard to find Uncle Liu." It is said that this Adult Infant Pill was refined by Master Liu with great effort, and the Pill he refined himself was naturally better for him to check it himself, so we will go to the backyard to strive for Senior Sister Mo Ning to break through the Yuan Shen and enter the Yuan Infant Period. Ten of us are also staying to sweep the formation!"

"Oh, that's the case, that junior sister is here to wish Senior Sister Mo Ning a successful baby......"

The two of them were talking here, and Ye Xiaotian and Xiaoxue were also talking on the side. I saw Xiaoxue secretly pointing at one of the women, attached to Ye Xiaotian's ear and said: "Oh, it's that guy, the guy who has a straight face all day long, and has a fight with the ice cube face, she is the one who won the championship in the final competition!"

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly looked over, and then he saw the familiar figure again, "Sure enough, it's her, I didn't expect her to be so powerful!" Ye Xiaotian thought secretly, and the thought in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He sat like this for a while, and then, under the puzzled eyes of everyone, he slowly walked to Mo Ning's side, and said in a low voice that seemed to be heard only by him: "I...... Can I ask you for one thing?"

It's strange to say, Mo Ning seemed to hear him in such a low voice, she didn't speak, just looked at him deeply, as if she wanted to see him through, and then she stood up and walked out of the kitchen directly. Ye Xiaotian didn't know why, but he heard Yun say: "Do you have something to tell Senior Sister Mo, she generally doesn't like to talk in crowded places, so she went out, she should listen to your request!"

Hearing this, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but smile apologetically, and then followed out. I could only hear Xiaoxue muttering in the kitchen: "Hmph, weirdos really have strange habits!"

After walking out of the kitchen and walking dozens of steps ahead, Ye Xiaotian saw the white figure. In this dark night, her back is also like her person, revealing a coldness.

"Do you have anything to do with me?" she suddenly asked as Ye Xiaotian approached.

"I'm ......" Ye Xiaotian was asked for a while, and he obviously made a decision, but at this time she was standing in front of him, and he didn't know how to speak.

Just when he hesitated, Mo Ning suddenly said, "I know why you came to me, for that Infant Pill, yes or no?"

"Ahh

"So, do you think I'll give you this hard-won Chengying Pill like this?"

"No!"

"Then why are you still coming to me?"

"I ...... I can promise you one thing, whatever the requirements for this matter are!"

"Heh, can the promise of an ordinary disciple of yours be worth the value of a Infant Pill?"

"I ......" Ye Xiaotian was speechless, but when he sighed and wanted to turn around, a slender jade hand suddenly stretched out, and on that crystal like jade hand, there was a light blue pill lying firmly in the palm of his hand, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance, and there was a halo circulating on it, and at a glance, he knew that it was not ordinary.

When he was shocked, Mo Ning's faint words echoed in his ears again, "You have to remember that I gave you this Infant Pill, not because of your promise, but because this Infant Pill should have belonged to you!"
