Lin Xinghe said, “I think you can go faster. I can stand firm. If I can’t stand firm…” Lin Xinghe asked softly, “can I hold you?”
The immortal sword suddenly braked in the air.
But only for a moment.
Xie Wuan continued to fly, and with a tone that even the deaf would know was eager, said, “Go ahead.”
Xie Wuan accelerated.
Xie Wuan accelerated again.
Xie Wuan accelerated yet again.
Lin Xinghe listened to the sound of his heart—
“Why don’t you hug me!”
“Not fast enough!”
“Then faster!”
“Aren’t you hugging yet?”
“Faster…”
She couldn’t help but let out a smile.
With her strength, no matter how fast Xie Wuan flew, as long as she tightened her core and steadied her dantian, she could stay still. It was just that now that Xie Wuan was like this, she felt like teasing him.
She reached out her hand quietly, slipping over his waist, then wrapped her arm around his waist and slowly plastered her body to his back.
The moment she hugged him, Xie Wuan immediately felt the softness of Lin Xinghe’s body and smelled her sweet scent. Ever since he learned the sword-wielding technique, his flying had always been stable. Even if he flew through a celestial storm, he would be as stable and firm as a mountain, and the wind and the rain couldn’t budge him one bit. But Lin Xinghe hugged him so gently, his qi was messed up, and he couldn’t control the movement of his spiritual energy. The immortal sword suddenly fell down a full four or five meters.
Lin Xinghe was taken aback by the crash-like accident. She hugged him tighter and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Xie Wuan grasped his spiritual energy, calmed his qi, and flew back to their original position. He said without changing his face, “Nothing, I noticed that there was an aircraft nearby, so I avoided it.”
Unexpectedly, his inner voice betrayed him——
“…How can there be such a sweet and soft person in the world!”
He added, “You don’t have to worry, the sea area you have chosen is safe. According to my observation, there are no boats down there. Maybe it has something to do with cats disliking water. With my ability, it won’t take long to create the continent. I’ll try to finish within a shichen.*” He paused, then changed his mind and said, “It will be completed within two hours.”
*T/N: a shichen was an ancient Chinese measure of time. Two hours = 1 shichen.
Lin Xinghe said: “Xianjun, you said a shichen. I know it means two hours.”
Xie Wuan said, “I know.”
Lin Xinghe suddenly said, “Do you care what Fu Zhou said?”
Xie Wuan said, “Of course I don’t care what he said.”
Lin Xinghe heard the meaning behind the words. Such words were usually followed by a but.
But Xie Wuan didn’t say the second half of the sentence for a long time, and his heart remained quiet.
After a long time, Xie Wuan suddenly asked, “You call Rudolph Jiuge, why don’t you call me Brother Xie*? Because I’m not as down-to-earth as him?”
*T/N: the title “ge” means older brother, so here, Xie Wuan is asking Lin Xinghe to call him “Xie-ge”
Lin Xinghe: …What? Does this man even get jealous of names?
“Of course not…” she said.
Xie Wuan: “In terms of popularity and fame, Rudolph is a fantasy boss, I’m a xianxia boss, and I’m the same as him. Why are you being so polite with me? You always call me Xianjun, but as soon as you met Rudolph, you called him Jiuge? Does his fear of baldness make him down-to-earth?”
Lin Xinghe suddenly burst out laughing and said, “I suddenly feel that you are down-to-earth, are you jealous?”
Xie Wuan denied it.
Lin Xinghe said, “If I call you Brother Xie, are you willing to admit that you are jealous?”
Xie Wuan: “I’m not jealous, I’m telling you the truth. We’re all from the same team, you even call Qi Qing and Fu Zhou by name, but you only call me Xianjun, you…”
Lin Xinghe suddenly called softly and sweetly, “Brother Xie.”
Xie Wuan shut up.
He hummed from his nose as a response. Anyone could see that he was happy, and even when he was working on the landmass, the corners of his mouth and brows were raised.
At this time, the CP fans of Xie Wuan and Lin Xinghe in the audience wished they could explode into fireworks to be their backgrounds.
