Chapter 1004 Ling Yun - Xuanyuan Xue'er I

As they continued to hold hands, Ling Yun and Xuanyuan Xue'er walked side by side, talking to each other and sharing their experiences. "At first, I found it difficult to adapt to the people of the Wutang Sword Sect, especially since most of their disciples were men, and some of them kept trying to approach me. However, the situation changed after Senior Sister Tianshi returned from her wanderings, and she helped me adapt to the situation there."

"Wutang Sword Sect?" Ling Yun was a bit surprised to hear about the sect. "As I recall, Mu Yan sent you to Jian Xian's place, right?"

Xuanyuan Xue'er nodded her head. "In fact, my master is one of the founders of the sect, but she doesn't like to take care of the sect's affairs, so she prefers to stay in his small hut. After I trained under her for three months, she asked me and Chang'er to go to the sect and train there, but we also frequently returned to her place."

"Then who is leading the sect?" Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com

"His name is Ning Weichen, and he is Ning Fan's grandfather." Ling Yun turned to Xuanyuan Xue'er with a raised eyebrow, especially since he had already gotten information about the latter's name from Wen Qing. "Although he is the leader of the sect, he is actually not the strongest there, and he is still inferior to our master; even Senior Sister Tianshi is still stronger than him. However, his Ning Clan is indeed the biggest clan there, and his influence is quite strong, so the sect's founders appointed him as the leader."

Ling Yun nodded in understanding. "Are there any other sects there?"

"Yes." Xuanyuan Xue'er then told him. "Aside from my sect, there are four other sects, and their relationship with each other is very harmonious. The Dragon Gate is a sect for cultivators who focus on body cultivation. The Soul Palace is a place for soul cultivators. The Stellar Wind Sect and its members not only practice speed cultivation, but also possess a multitude of exceptional fighting techniques. Senior Yun Liang leads the Golden Crow Sect, the most universal sect, where many members concentrate primarily on sword forging."

"Only five sects, huh?" Ling Yun muttered softly before asking Xuanyuan Xue'er again. "Does that mean Ji Ping'er, Wen Jia, Hao Liang, and Chui Song come from those four clans?"

Xuanyuan Xue'er was not surprised to hear the names of the four people from Ling Yun's mouth, especially since he could tell that she had already arrived at the tower, so she thought that Lian Bing and the others had told him about them. "Ji Ping'er is a disciple of the Soul Palace, and her soul technique is quite frightening. Hao Liang is a disciple of the Dragon Gate, and he has always been proud of his physical strength. Chui Song is a disciple of the Stellar Wind Sect, and he inherited the sect's magical movement technique. Wan Jian is a member of the Golden Crow Sect, and he is also Senior Yun's direct disciple, so his skill in sword forging is extremely high. However, several more disciples from the five sects will soon arrive at this tower, and they are as powerful as the five."

"Haha." When he heard her soft laughter, Ling Yun immediately looked at Xuanyuan Xue'er. "At first, I felt bored with it, but I kept myself busy with my cultivation and sword training, so I didn't feel any boredom at all, especially since time flies so fast, and I eventually got used to it."

Then, Ling Yun lifted Xuanyuan Xue'er's chin. "Did you know that your smile is beautiful? Your laughter is also pleasing to my ears, so I hope you will continue to be like this in the future, because I want to continue to see your smile and hear your laughter."

Ling Yun's words actually caused Xuanyuan Xue'er to become confused about their relationship, particularly considering their lack of closeness. Suddenly, she pressed both of her palms to her chest because her heartbeat was beating faster than usual, and a strange feeling that she had never felt before arose in her heart.

Xuanyuan Xue'er then pulled Ling Yun's hand down from her chin and asked him. "Why do you care so much about me? We've only met a few times in the past, and our relationship is practically no different from that of strangers."

"Is it wrong if I care about you?" Ling Yun asked back instead. "We are both humans, so it is natural for me to care about you, right?"

Xuanyuan Xue'er did not immediately deny it, and she thought for a while before speaking. We're humans, but we're cultivators who care more about ourselves than others."

Xuanyuan Xue'er did not immediately deny it, and she thought for a while before speaking. We're humans, but we're cultivators "Although I am a cultivator now, I was just an ordinary human who knew nothing about cultivators and the like before Ling Xi saved me. Even I had a hard time adapting to my new life at the time, especially since my mindset was no different from that of ordinary humans in general. Even though I have grown more as a cultivator, I still can't get rid of that mindset." Xuanyuan Xue'er concurred, noting that Ling Yun, despite having killed numerous individuals, including those from the Shui Clan, was still naive at that time. "You were the cultivator I feared the most back then, but I also admired you, especially after our last spar, and I want to continue doing so with you in the future. Moreover, the current me is different from the past me, and I realize that both of those things will hinder your development, so I want to help you overcome them because I don't want to lose to a formidable opponent."

Xuanyuan Xue'er let out a soft sigh and held Ling Yun's hand. "Honestly, our last spar also had a deep meaning in my heart, especially since you are the only cultivator who can match me, and I've been thinking about you ever since. Moreover, our last spar also made me realize that your potential is limitless and that you will leave me behind sooner or later, which makes me feel scared and disappointed in myself. That's why I agreed when Senior Mu Yan wanted to take me to the upper realms, and I continued to strive hard not to fall behind you."

"Do you really think about me?" Xuanyuan Xu'er did not feel ashamed to admit it with a nod, and Ling Yun immediately hugged her. "In fact, I myself have always been thinking about you, and our last spar was another reason that made me want to become stronger, especially since I know that you also have extraordinary talent, so I don't want to be lost to you."
