26. Who Is It That You Truly Like The sword light flashed like a rainbow, fast enough that there wasn’t even time to blink. If it hit someone, by the time they reacted, their head and body might’ve already parted ways. Bai Yuanxiu flicked his wrist in a flourish, and the shadow-like black iron sword returned to its sheath at his waist, leaving behind only a ground full of tattered leaves. Ye Nanxun rolled his eyes. All that just to trim a few branches for scenery? Even the Sect Leader was…- 80.2 K • Completed
- 27. Escape At the time, the Sect Leader had only left Bai Yuanxiu with that one cryptic sentence, leaving him completely baffled. No matter how many times Bai Yuanxiu asked afterward, he acted like he hadn’t heard. The next day, annoyed by Bai Yuanxiu’s persistent questioning, he threw out, “Figure out what Xiao Qing means to you first,” and ran off—leaving Bai Yuanxiu to stew over that question for days. The Sect Leader hid from Bai Yuanxiu. Bai Yuanxiu hid from the hall masters who…

- 28. I only care about you Feeling the cool touch on his back, Bai Yuanxiu wanted nothing more than to cover his face in shame. How could he react like that? Xiao Qing was just trying to check his injury. How could a single word send his mind spiraling that far? The fleeting coldness on his back made Bai Yuanxiu uncomfortable. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed and stammered, “It’s probably not that serious, maybe we—ow—” He winced and yelped in pain before he could even turn…

- 29. Meeting the Parents Bai Yuanxiu stepped forward and shielded Xiao Qing behind him, face cold as he stared at the furious man in front of them. The man’s beard trembled beneath his chin—he was clearly fuming. “In broad daylight—have you no shame!” Faced with this scolding at such close range, Bai Yuanxiu blinked in confusion. “Sorry, and… you are?” That one sentence was like a spark thrown into a barrel of gunpowder—the man’s hair nearly stood on end from rage. “I’m…

- 30. He’s really good to me. “Cough, cough, cough—!” Bai Yuanxiu was so startled he choked on air, coughing so violently it sounded like the heavens were falling. And then, as he looked up, that disheveled figure was suddenly right in his face. Bai Yuanxiu freaked out and swung a punch on reflex. The moment he threw the punch, he immediately panicked—he hadn’t held back at all. Normally, that kind of blow could snap a tree in half. If this “ghost” turned out to be human, it’d…

- 34. Furiously Fluffed Up In the dead of night, the White Tiger Hall was silent, and the cook’s loud scream echoed especially clearly: “Whoa, you scared me to death!” Bai Yuanxiu scratched the back of his head, sheepish. “Haha, sorry, sorry.” The cook pulled out a piece of coarse cotton cloth, dampened it, and covered the wooden bucket. After estimating the dough’s fermentation time, she found a cool spot to sit with Bai Yuanxiu. She glanced over at him, first thanking him for…

- 35. Heart’s Blood, Love-Cleansing Elixir In the Azure Dragon Hall, Ye Nanxun flipped through several ancient tomes in front of him, his brows tightly furrowed for over an hour without easing. Bai Yuanxiu yawned lazily. “Divine Doctor Ye, how much longer are you going to take?” Ye Nanxun clicked his tongue. “Easy for you to say when you’re not the one doing the work.” He shot a glance at Bai Yuanxiu, who was lounging half-reclined on the bed with his head resting on his hand,…

- 32. This scene felt strangely familiar. Though they were both Protectors, there hadn’t been a single instance in past years where the Left and Right Protectors had been dispatched together—and without anyone else present. So now, seeing Xiao Qing acting under the title of Left Protector, Bai Yuanxiu was suddenly struck dumb with disbelief. Xiao Qing, at this moment, was radiating an aura that clearly said “strangers stay away.” His back was straight, his seated posture composed yet alert, and…

- 33. Don’t come any closer! Bai Yuanxiu had just been feeling a rare moment of relief—finally, he no longer had to juggle the dual identities of “Hero Bai” and “Demonic Sect Protector.” A strange sense of freedom bloomed in his chest, and he even found himself anticipating the looks on those righteous Sect folks’ faces when they uncovered the truth. He turned around to face the bearded middle-aged man, flashing a bright, easygoing smile. “I—” Puh-puh! A few Demonic Sect members…

- 36. The Demonic Sect is truly beyond saving! It was the crisp season of autumn. The wheat fields were golden, and even the air seemed filled with the fragrance of ripened grain. Along a muddy path barely wide enough for one person, a figure in indigo robes walked slowly, carrying a young man on his back—one nearly his own size. Even from a distance, the muttering of one of them could be heard. “You really—seriously now—why would you go after them in that situation? It was clearly a…
