Martial Arts: The Secret Villain Starting from Huashan

At this moment in the cave, everything seems so harmonious and perfect, as if time has frozen at this moment, making people's hearts feel unprecedentedly relaxed and cleansed.

All worries and sorrows disappear with the breeze, leaving only joy and tranquility in the heart.

Looking at the cold yet gentle face in front of him, Mu Wanqing's face seemed as if gently caressed by the moonlight, delicate and soft. Her lingering smile added a bit of mystery and charm, causing ripples in Xu Xingchen's heart.

Xu Xingchen was deeply shocked by this beauty, which was an attraction that went beyond what words could express.

Mu Wanqing's elegance is not only reflected in her every move, but also permeates every look and every breath of hers, making people involuntarily fall for her.

Her unique temperament is as fresh and refined as a mountain spring, allowing people to find a moment of peace and tranquility in the noisy world. Her smile is like the first ray of sunshine at dawn, warm but not dazzling.

At this moment, Xu Xingchen's heart was filled with an indescribable emotion. He felt as if he was in a dreamlike world and couldn't help but blurt out.

"The new moon shines brightly, the flowers and trees are covered with snow, the water and trees are pure and elegant, and the scenery is graceful and clear."

This sentence not only expresses Xu Xingchen's admiration for the beautiful scenery before his eyes, but also contains his endless praise for Mu Wanqing. In Xu Xingchen's view, Mu Wanqing is like the brightest crescent moon in the night sky, cold and noble.

She is like the flowers and trees covered with snow in winter, pure and beautiful; her temperament is like a beautiful and elegant place with clear water and trees, refined and unworldly; and the four characters [婉兮清扬] fully display her gentleness and agility.

Hearing Xu Xingchen's heartfelt praise, Mu Wanqing's heart was overwhelmed by an indescribable surge of shock. She subconsciously examined herself and was shocked to find that she had forgotten to put on the black veil that she always wore.

Moreover, the delicate and pretty face that had always been hidden in the shadows was now exposed to the air without any cover. Two red clouds appeared on her cheeks, like the first blooming peach blossoms in spring, delicate and beautiful.

This was the first time in Mu Wanqing's life that someone praised her like this. At the same time, Mu Wanqing felt mixed emotions. She had made a solemn vow since she was young to cover her face with a black veil and never let any man see her true appearance except her future husband.

Now, this sudden change made Mu Wanqing feel embarrassed and at a loss. However, she was a woman of strong character after all, and she quickly recovered from the initial shock.

With trembling fingers, she pulled out a soft and delicate black gauze from the depths of her sleeves, quickly and decisively covered her face with it, and once again wrapped herself in the familiar mystery and self-protection.

As the black veil slowly fell, blocking out the prying eyes of the outside world, Mu Wanqing's state of mind seemed to sink into a deep sea of ​​tranquility, and her breathing gradually became steady and long.

But beneath this apparent calm, the waves in her heart had not really subsided. Mu Wanqing's little head was like a lake brushed by a spring breeze, with ripples one after another, and her thoughts involuntarily drifted to the depths of distant and vague memories.

In that ocean of memories, Mu Wanqing recalled the man who had accidentally witnessed her face, Duan Yu. He was the first and only man in her life who broke his oath and saw her true face.

Although that memory was full of complexity and entanglement, whenever Mu Wanqing thought of him, an indescribable emotion would always surge in her heart, including nostalgia for the past and confusion and uneasiness about the future.

"Forget it. Mr. Xu is not the first man to see my face anyway."

Mu Wanqing secretly comforted herself in her heart.

Thinking of the first man who had witnessed her face, Duan Yu, her little head replayed every detail of her meeting, acquaintance, and friendship with Duan Yu. The feeling of desolation in her heart became stronger, as if the cold wind in autumn had penetrated her clothes and reached her heart.

"Gulu..."

In this deep and quiet cave, the sudden sound seemed to break the solidified air around it, and it was particularly clear. Xu Xingchen's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise at this discordant melody.

Then he couldn't help but look in the direction of the voice, and his eyes finally stopped at Mu Wanqing's position not far away.

As soon as the voice fell, Mu Wanqing, who was wearing a black veil, with a graceful figure and an indescribable cold temperament, appeared under the black veil, which was originally calm.

An exquisite and pretty face quietly blushed slightly, like peach petals in the early morning light, shy and moving. Mu Wanqing also felt her cheeks burning.

Her delicate hands unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, which was the source of the "gurgling" sound just now. This action undoubtedly silently told of Mu Wanqing's embarrassment and awkwardness.

It turned out that Mu Wanqing, like Xu Xingchen, had not eaten for a day and a night. It was this long period of hunger that had caused her stomach to protest directly, and even the most basic physiological needs could no longer be ignored.

After Xu Xingchen reacted, a gentle smile appeared on his pretty face. That smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, gently falling on Mu Wanqing's slightly embarrassed eyes.

Looking at Mu Wanqing's embarrassing appearance, Xu Xingchen's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible pampering and tenderness. The gentle smile on her pretty face looked even more handsome in the morning light.

"Miss Mu, please wait for a moment. I will go and deal with the prey."

Xu Xingchen whispered softly.

As he spoke, he steadily caught a plump and sturdy pheasant with colorful feathers in one hand. The pheasant seemed to sense the danger and was struggling hard, but it could not escape Xu Xingchen's strong grasp.

The other hand was leisurely holding a cute yellow rabbit with golden fur. The rabbit's short legs were swaying slightly in the air, and its pair of ruby-like eyes were looking around curiously, looking very adorable.

"Look, these two little guys in my hand are enough for the two of us to have a full meal."

Xu Xingchen said with a smile.

His tone was full of satisfaction, and he gently shook the pheasant and yellow rabbit in his hands twice in front of Mu Wanqing.

Afterwards, Xu Xingchen turned and walked to the fire beside him. The flame that had originally gone out there, Xu Xingchen started to relight the fire. Soon, a wisp of thin green smoke slowly rose.

Then, the weak flame gradually revived under Xu Xingchen's careful care, and finally turned into a blazing flame, leaping with the vitality of life like a reborn phoenix.

As the flames flickered, Xu Xingchen skillfully picked up dry firewood and dead leaves beside him and threw them into the fire. This not only dispelled the chill in the cave, but also made Xu Xingchen's handsome face particularly vivid. His eyes were focused and deep, as if he could see through every subtle change in the flames.

In particular, his face was firm, revealing a determination to not fear difficulties and to move forward courageously. Against the backdrop of the firelight, Xu Xingchen's already handsome features looked even more heroic, making people involuntarily respect him.

After rekindling the fire, Xu Xingchen did not stop but began to skillfully process the game in his hand. Xu Xingchen knew very well that in this wilderness, every piece of food was hard-earned, so he cherished these gifts from nature very much.

He first carefully picked up a pheasant and a yellow rabbit, and skillfully plucked their feathers and fur. The whole process was quick and gentle, for fear of destroying this perfection from nature.

Then, Xu Xingchen pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist, and in a flash of the knife, he accurately cut open the abdomen of the pheasant and the yellow rabbit without any hesitation.

He just focused on cleaning out the internal organs and impurities, and every movement seemed so precise and powerful.

Under Xu Xingchen's hands, these originally messy internal organs were quickly sorted out neatly and discarded on the dead leaves beside, while the pheasant and yellow rabbit in his hands became clean and neat.

The whole process was smooth and orderly, showing his rich wilderness survival experience and superb skills.
