Xiao Yin was a little embarrassed and said, "I'...... It's just that...... I just saw you two sneaking out, and I thought it was strange......"

Yan Yue smiled and said, "So you followed the situation, wanting to discover the conspiracy?"

Xiao Yin's face was even more embarrassed: "Uh...... This one...... Teased ......"

Xing Hao withdrew the deadwood sword, looked at Xiao Yin and said, "I used seven success forces for that sword just now, but you dodged effortlessly, judging from your body shape, speed and breath, you should only use fifty percent of your strength at most, or less." Is it?"

Xiao Yin nodded slightly, "Yes." ”

Xing Hao said: "It is worthy of entering the True Yuan Realm." Half a year ago, you were just a person who had not yet opened your breath, but now you have surpassed us. ”

Xiao Yin said: "Where, it's my luck." And I'm only in the empty realm at present, and my martial arts cultivation is still far behind you. If I do play against you, my chance of winning is probably no more than 40%. ”

Xing Hao said: "You don't have to be modest, it's only been half a year, you have such strength, everyone knows what it means." ”

Xiao Yin didn't intend to continue the topic, waved his hand and said, "Okay, since there's nothing to do, then I'll go back first." ”

With that, Xiao Yin was about to turn around and leave.

Unexpectedly, Xinghao said, "Wait a minute. ”

Xiao Yin was stunned.

Yan Yue also seems to be a little strange.

Xinghao said: "Since you are here, then simply stay." ”

Xiao Yin said: "Stay, what are you doing?"

Xinghao said, "You should already know what the two of us are doing here." ”

Xiao Yin said: "I did hear some just now. ”

Xinghao said, "What don't you want to say?"

Xiao Yin couldn't help but glance at Yan Yue, and his face showed a hint of embarrassment again: "This ......"

Yan Yue's face turned even redder, and she couldn't help but reach out and secretly pull Xinghao's sleeve.

Xing Hao didn't seem to feel it, just looked at Xiao Yin very seriously, and continued: "Everyone really wants to help you. Sister Yanyue wants it most. ”

The very straightforward words made Xiao Yin and Yan Yue's faces turn red all of a sudden.

Xing Hao didn't mean to stop at all, and said, "When we were trapped in the prison of the Yunyuan Mountain Range, Sister Yanyue often talked to me in private, although she said a lot of other things, but your name was mentioned the most, a total of one hundred and thirty-four times. ”

Yan Yue was in a hurry and argued: "How can there be so many!"

Xing Hao said calmly: "Master has taught me three hundred and sixty-five kinds of swordsmanship, not counting the various changes derived from swordsmanship, just in terms of the number of sword moves, the fixed sword moves of each sword technique are more than two hundred moves, except for the flying sword technique, I can remember the number of sword moves of all swordsmanship at a glance." The words you said in the prison of the Yunyuan Mountain Range were far less than the number of these sword moves, and I couldn't be mistaken. ”

Yan Yue was dumbfounded and looked at Xing Hao, who was dressed in white and had black hair like a waterfall in front of her, and was directly speechless.

Rao is Xiao Yin, who is usually calm and abnormal, is also a little embarrassed at the moment.

However, Xinghao didn't seem to care, just stood on the spot very calmly, looked at the two, and didn't speak.

After an embarrassing silence, it seemed that Xiao Yin couldn't stand it anymore, so he muttered, "This...... Or...... Too late...... Let's talk about it......"

Yan Yue listened to Xiao Yin's upside-down and somewhat stammering words, her face was blushing, and she simply turned her face to the side.

Xing Hao continued to ignore it: "Shizun rarely talks to me about other things except for kendo practice, but he once inadvertently sighed a passage that makes me remember it vividly, he said, 'Sword cultivation is like being a man. The world's most profound and subtle kendo martial arts, seemingly difficult to understand, in fact, often contains the world's most simple and direct truth, rather than being deeply immersed in it, day and night repeated study can not extricate themselves, and finally complain about the sky and give up on themselves, it is better to straighten the chest, face everything, put aside all the superficial complex sword moves and experience of the shackles, and let go of the will, maybe you can understand the essence of it. So, it's the same with being human. Instead of being caught up in some kind of troubles and entanglements in the world, it is better to face everything and be honest, and everything may be better. I didn't understand this passage at the time, and the master didn't explain much, but just told me that when I stepped into the red dust experience, I would naturally understand. Now, I seem to understand a little. ”

After saying that, Xinghao put away the deadwood sword, did not look back, and after a few elegant ups and downs, his figure disappeared at the mouth of the valley.

Watching Xinghao drift away, Xiao Yin was dumbfounded.

After another period of silence, Yan Yue finally forcibly suppressed the turmoil in her heart, clenched the silver spear with one hand, and plucked up the courage to say to Xiao Yin: "Sister Xinghao's words...... Don't take it to heart...... In fact...... It's really not like that......"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yin raised his hand, made a stop movement, and said, "Needless to say, it's actually my problem." ”

Yan Yue was stunned.

Xiao Yin looked at Yan Yue, his clear eyes revealed a hint of complexity, and said, "Xing Hao's words are very direct and fatal, but they are very good. After coming out of Taiping County this time, I have been thinking in my heart, in fact, I am really not as good as others think. In my opinion, all 'unparalleled scheming' and 'brilliant scheming' are just boring boasts or even ridicule after the fact. The complexity of people's hearts and the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes are far beyond my imagination, and I can't even protect my own biological parents, so what qualifications do I have to talk about anything else? Xinghao's words just now woke me up again. Not only can't I even protect my biological parents, but I can't even see what my friends around me who share life and death are thinking or worrying. Heh......"

When Yan Yue heard this, she hurriedly said: "It's not like this! If it weren't for you, the Nine Dragons Coffin wouldn't have been sent to Xueyuan City! If it weren't for you, the civil strife in Xueyuan City wouldn't have subsided! It wouldn't have been completely taken back! If it weren't for you, Qianqian, Xinghao, and me, the three of us would still be trapped in the Yunyuan Mountain Range! Don't say that! The three of us have said it many times in private, and even Qianqian admires you very much in private, saying that looking at the entire Tianji Wizard List, there is no second person like you. Me too, you're the smartest, calmest, and most gifted person I've ever met. ”

Xiao Yin smiled bitterly and said, "The more you say that, the more I feel ridiculous." ”

Yan Yue's face froze, and she was about to continue to persuade something.

Xiao Yin waved his hand slightly, and said, "What Xing Hao said just now is right, I think I might want to talk to you." ”

Yan Yue was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red again, and she asked a little nervously, "What are you talking about?"

Xiao Yin's face was also red, and then he tried very hard to make himself look very calm, and said, "Actually...... I don't know what to talk about...... However, I do feel like I should say something. ”

Yan Yue lowered her head, and the fingers that clenched the silver spear began to rub the body of the spear desperately, without saying a word.

Xiao Yin forced a light cough calmly and said, "Eh...... That's right, we're going to Shendu now, mainly to inquire about my parents' affairs, you know, this matter is really important to me, and, you know, in fact, my situation is really not very good now, in addition to my parents' affairs, I still have a lot of things to do, there are many mysteries to solve, and I am still too weak, I want to improve my cultivation quickly, to solve these things one by one. So ......"

As he spoke, Xiao Yin paused slightly, first glanced at Yan Yue, and then plucked up his courage and said, "So...... There are other things that may just have to be put aside for now. ”

After that, Xiao Yin hurriedly took a sneak glance at Yan Yue, and found that although Yan Yue had been keeping her head down, when she heard her last sentence, her fingers that had been rubbing the body of the gun suddenly paused, and the whole person seemed to be a little frozen there.

Xiao Yin suddenly panicked.

Immediately, Xiao Yin hurriedly explained: "Huh...... In fact...... I don't mean anything else, not what you think...... Nor is it ...... It's not that I refused......"

When it came to the word "refusal", Xiao Yin himself felt a little unable to speak.

However, at this moment, Yan Yue suddenly raised her head, looked at Xiao Yin, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I understand." ”

Xiao Yin was stunned and couldn't say a word.

Suddenly, Yan Yue took two steps towards Xiao Yin, raised her hand, put it on Xiao Yin's shoulder, and said with a calm smile: "We are all friends who share life and death, don't make everyone embarrassed for these things." I am a member of the Dugu family, our Dugu family was born in the military, and I have always liked to go straight and don't want to drag mud and water. This matter, stop here, I will tell Sister Xinghao that we have solved this matter tonight, and asked her not to mention it again in the future. And the two of us, don't mention it again, okay?"

Xiao Yin looked at Yan Yue's really reluctant smile, and his heart suddenly soured, and an inexplicable stirring feeling surged in his chest.

"Yanyue, I ......"

Xiao Yin suddenly wanted to speak.

Unexpectedly, Yan Yue suddenly put both hands together and directly hugged Xiao Yin.

This hug caught Xiao Yin off guard, and he didn't say what he wanted to say for a while, let alone what he should do next, so he had to let Yan Yue hug him.

Yan Yue hugged Xiao Yin, shook her head lightly next to Xiao Yin's ear, and said softly: "Don't say it, don't say it." ”

It seems that he is deliberately blocking back the words that Xiao Yin wants to say impulsively, and he seems to be muttering to himself.

"That's it, don't mention it again. Okay?"

Yan Yue asked in a low voice.

At this moment, Xiao Yin suddenly felt that the body holding Yan Yue was trembling slightly.

Xiao Yin slowly raised his hands a little awkwardly, then gently hugged Yan Yue, and replied with a hint of complexity on his face: "Okay." ”

At this moment, the two of them maintained a very stiff hugging posture, and they couldn't see each other's faces or each other's expressions at this moment.

Yan Yue heard Xiao Yin's "good" word, looked at the dark night sky in the distance, was silent for a moment, closed her eyes slightly, then took a deep breath, slowly opened her eyes, and then suddenly let go of her hand, let go of Xiao Yin, took two steps back, looked at Xiao Yin and smiled: "Well, a word is a certainty." ”

After that, Yan Yue quickly put away the silver spear and iron bow, nodded towards Xiao Yin and said, "Okay, I'm going back to rest, I tried it with the Xinghao girl just now, and then I know how big the gap between me and the Sword Shrine is in the world, and I will definitely work harder to practice in the future." The people of my lonely family will always refuse to admit defeat. You also have to work hard, you can't be lazy just because you're smart, otherwise I'll surpass you, and I'll look down on you. ”

Without waiting for Xiao Yin to respond, Yan Yue held her head high and walked straight towards Taniguchi without looking back.

When he walked past Xiao Yin's side, the cloak behind Yan Yue slightly brought a hint of night breeze and blew across Xiao Yin's face.

Xiao Yin felt a little cold.

Xiao Yin watched Yan Yue gradually disappear into the dark night, and stood alone on the spot for a long time, speechless and silent.
