Fighting with fire shadow

"Master, you misunderstood."

When Ximen Cheng saw Yun Yun getting angry, he quickly explained: "This disciple is not bullying senior sister. It's just that there are many ways to break off the engagement, but senior sister chose the stupidest one.

If senior sister just goes to the Xiao family to break off the engagement, will others think that our Yunlan Sect is bullying others?She can't pass Mr. Nalan Jie's test alone. Doesn't she plan to return to Nalan Jie's house in the future? "

Hearing this, Yun Yun slowly relaxed her frown and asked curiously: "From what you said, do you have any good ideas?"

"It's not really a good idea, but I do have a way to help senior sister break off the engagement smoothly without making Mr. Nalan Jie angry, hehe~"

"Okay, stop being pretentious and say it quickly! Don't you see your senior sister is in a hurry?"

"The method is actually very simple. Since Mr. Nalan Jie is unwilling to regret the engagement, then we can just find a way to get the Xiao family to terminate the engagement. All we need to do is..."

At first, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran were full of curiosity, but after Ximen Cheng told the whole plan, Yun Yun and the others looked at Ximen Cheng in a weird way.

Because Ximen Cheng's plan is so damaging, no wonder he just said it was not a good idea.

"Junior brother, I'm sorry you came up with such a harmful idea. How bad are you~"

After Nalan Yanran heard Ximen Cheng's plan, she felt that the big stone weighing on her heart instantly disappeared, and she gave Ximen Cheng a somewhat annoyed look.

Ximen Cheng shook his head and said: "Senior sister, judging from what you said, I don't call this evil, I call it unparalleled resourcefulness."

Yun Yun couldn't help laughing and scolding: "What do you mean, you are so resourceful? I think you are just full of evil, and you are not as honest as you look on the outside."

"Ugh……"

Ximen Cheng sighed and said: "Master, senior sister, I'm not talking about you. You two should really study the course "The Art of Speaking". If you can learn this course, I guarantee that it will bring you great benefits." The benefits of coming here are definitely better than learning a heaven-level fighting skill."

Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran didn't take it seriously at first, but after hearing Ximen Cheng's exaggeration, they became curious.

Yun Yun asked with some curiosity: "Cheng'er, what exactly is the "Art of Speaking" you are talking about? I have never heard of it before as a teacher?"

"To return to Master, "The Art of Speaking" is simply a speaking skill, which was summed up by the disciples in their own free time."

Halfway through Ximen Cheng's words, he noticed the increasingly puzzled expressions of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran. He thought for a moment and said, "Master, senior sister, if I give you a lecture directly, you probably won't be able to understand it for a while. Why don't I give it to you first?" Can you tell me a story?"

"Okay, then you tell me!"

Ximen Cheng said with great emotion: "A long time ago, a king had a dream. In the dream, all his teeth fell out, and he was so frightened that he woke up directly.

The king who woke up felt uneasy and quickly asked a dream interpreter to come over and ask him what the dream meant.

After the dream interpreter listened to the king narrate the scene in the dream, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted with a pale face, "Your Majesty the King, this dream is a bad omen, indicating that your family will die earlier than you." '

When the king heard what the dream interpreter said, he was furious and asked the soldiers to drag him out and behead him, and then asked for another dream interpreter.

After the second dream interpreter heard the king talking about the scene in the dream, he suddenly fell to his knees and shouted with excitement, "Your Majesty, this is a good sign!"If you lose all your teeth in the dream, it means that you will live longer than your family! '

After hearing what the second dream interpreter said, the king suddenly became very happy and rewarded him with many treasures. "

"(○o○)"

After Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran listened to the story told by Ximen Cheng, they thought about it secretly and showed thoughtful expressions.

"Actually, the two dream interpreters mean the same thing, but what the first dream interpreter said makes people angry easily, while what the second dream interpreter said makes people happy more easily. This is "The Art of Speaking". "

"It's indeed interesting, but...Cheng'er, why do you think about this kind of thing?"

"┐('~`；)┌"

Ximen Cheng shrugged helplessly and said: "Master, do you think the disciple wants to think about this? The disciple really has no choice. The outer disciples are different from the inner disciples. The competitiveness between the outer disciples is really too great. .

Especially for outer sect disciples like this disciple who have no background, if they show extremely high cultivation talent while still in the outer sect, it will easily arouse the jealousy of other outer sect disciples. Those outer sect disciples with deep backgrounds can do whatever they want. The hands and feet are so annoying that the disciple has no time to practice.

Therefore, the disciple has been hiding his true cultivation level for these years, and did not apply to become an inner disciple until he was about to turn 15, just to be able to make a splash. "

"Cheng'er~"

When Yun Yun heard this, she looked at Ximen Cheng with a look of love in her eyes unconsciously.

At first, Yun Yun thought that Ximen Cheng was a little deep-minded, but now that she thought of his identity as an orphan and felt sorry for this little apprentice, she wanted to hold him in her arms and comfort him.

"Senior brother..."

Nalan Yanran's eyes became softer when she looked at Ximen Cheng.

In the past, Nalan Yanran had always thought that Ximen Cheng's fighting ability was weak because he spent most of his time practicing martial arts and neglected the training of fighting skills.

But now it seems that the reason why Ximen Cheng rarely practices fighting skills is because he is worried that if he practices fighting skills outside, others will see through his true strength, which will lead to malicious suppression by some bad people.

When Nalan Yanran thought about Ximen Cheng's time in the outer sect, he was guarding against the oppression of other outer sect disciples and practicing hard at the same time. The scene of Ximen Cheng enduring humiliation and perseverance suddenly appeared in her mind, and she felt very sorry for this junior disciple. .

Ximen Cheng noticed the change in the eyes of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran. On the surface, he was calm, but in his heart he couldn't help but snickered: "Did you see that? This is "The Art of Speaking"!"

In fact, what Ximen Cheng said just now was purely to fool Yun Yun and the others. Although the competition among the outer disciples was very high, there were not many outer disciples who were actually maliciously suppressed.

After all, the outer disciples are not fools. Unless the two sides really have a big hatred, they will not easily establish a life-or-death enemy for themselves.
