After the truth came out, they begged me not to die.

Ji Yanwu stopped in front of Chen Zun and refused to let him go.

After all, Chen Zun couldn't get rid of her. He raised his head and said calmly: "What do you want to do?"

Looking at the sweaty Chen Zun in front of him, the aloof and cold figure in the ice and snow in Ji Yanwu's memory suddenly collapsed, but the coldness remained unchanged.

She previously thought that Chen Zun just hid his cultivation and did not want to be known to the outside world, so he was misunderstood as a mortal.

Until she told her master that the person who saved her in the extremely cold place was Chen Zun, his master kept shaking his head and refused to believe it.

Master said that in front of high-level monks, low-level monks cannot hide their cultivation. Chen Zun is indeed a genuine mortal.

Moreover, rumors were spreading, and everyone was ridiculing Sect Leader Xu for accepting a useless disciple.

In a moment of desperation, she found out where Chen Zun was and came to stay. Unexpectedly, she heard the Tianyuan Sect disciples sarcastic towards Chen Zun.

She was angry at how others humiliated Chen Zun, and she was also curious about why Chen Zun became like this.

Ji Yanwu was happy to be reunited, but also full of questions. When Chen Zun looked at her, she didn't know what to say. After thinking for a while, she asked with an extremely complicated expression: "How could you...become like this?" Look."

"I haven't changed."

"But your cultivation level..."

"Is this what you asked today?"

Chen Zun didn't answer and asked instead.

Ji Yanwu was speechless for a moment.

In the final analysis, her relationship with Chen Zun was just an encounter, like the intersection of two lines. There was no deep friendship. It was really inappropriate to ask this extremely private question rashly.

"If you have nothing else to do, please get out of my way, Fairy Ji, so as not to delay my practice."

Taking advantage of her daze, Chen Zun crossed over from the side and walked up.

Ji Yanwu didn't intend to give up. She continued to follow him and lowered her voice and said, "You saved my life. I don't want to owe you any favors."

"We meet by chance, how can we save my life? You never owe me anything, you don't owe me anything now, and you won't owe me anything in the future."

Chen Zun paused and said sternly to Ji Yanwu: "Please stay, for the sake of Fairy Ji's reputation, so as not to cause unnecessary gossip, you and I will say goodbye, as if we have never known each other."

After saying that, he cast his eyes behind him, shook his head, and continued to climb forward.

Ji Yanwu followed his gaze and saw a large number of monks pointing at the two of them and discussing in low voices under the stairs behind them.

What happened today will probably spread within half a day.

At that time, the ambiguous behavior of Ji Yanwu, the flower of the high mountain in Shuiyuezhai, and the useless disciple of the Tianyuan Sect leader will be made public.

She didn't care, glared at the monks eating melons, turned around and ran side by side with Chen Zun.

Ji Yanwu was full of grievances. She originally came to care about him, but she didn't expect that he would treat her like this.

Thinking of Chen Zun's flat tone and indifferent attitude, as if he was talking to a stranger, and his words of honor and that he didn't owe him anything. Using this as an excuse, he clearly wanted to drive her away.

The more Ji Yanwu thought about it, the angrier she became, and her temper also rose. She had made up her mind that she would just stay with him and ignore the rumors and other things, and she would just stay with Chen Zun until the end.

Chen Zun turned his head and glanced at her, frowning: "Why don't you listen?"

"You take your Yangguan Road, and I'll take my single-plank bridge. The Tongtian Steps are not yours alone, so you don't care about me!"

Ji Yanwu snorted.

Seeing this, Chen Zun looked helpless.

Since she insisted on confronting him, he didn't stop her. He had no choice but to put away his mind, became silent, and concentrated on climbing the steps.

The two of them walked side by side step by step without saying a word.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sky turned dark.

Finally, with the soft moonlight shining on his body, Chen Zun finally reached the top and reached the main hall square of Tianyuan Sect.

It's quiet and quiet here.

Chen Zun sat on the ground without any image, his whole body wet with sweat and panting like an ox.

Ji Yanwu stood aside. She had the blessing of spiritual power. Even if she climbed up and down the main peak again, she would only lose a little spiritual power.

She had seen Chen Zun's stubbornness, and while she admired him in her heart, she was even more interested in the secret of Chen Zun's transformation into a mortal.

"Here you go, wipe off your sweat."

Ji Yanwu took out a brocade handkerchief from her arms, her face turned red, and she handed it over shyly.

For a disciple of Shui Yuezhai who is quite conservative in thinking, her move is definitely considered bold. This is something she has kept close to her for a long time. If Chen Zun had not saved her life, she would not have been beaten to death. Give this close-fitting brocade handkerchief to a man to wipe his sweat.

Chen Zun looked at the brocade handkerchief in front of him, which contained a faint feminine fragrance. He waved his hand and rejected the good offer.

"Need not."

He actually refused!

Does this mean you dislike yourself?

Ji Yanwu stretched out her hands blankly, with a look of disbelief on her face.

I finally mustered up the courage to give away something personal, but what I got in return was a blunt response, which was simply humiliating.

No woman would be able to accept such a result. When Ji Yanwu thought about her efforts today, she felt more and more aggrieved.

Her eyes became moist and her body trembled slightly. This time, she couldn't bear it anymore.

"If you want love, I will ignore you from now on."

After she shouted these words, she angrily hit Chen Zun on the head with her handkerchief, drove up the Escape and left here without looking back.

Chen Zun grabbed the brocade handkerchief and turned around to look, stretched out his palm, and saw the escaping light pierce through the air, and he didn't know where he went in a few seconds.

His eyes were deep, he opened his mouth, then pursed his lips and sat there without saying a word.

"That girl is good, but what you do is too heartless."

After a long time, an old voice suddenly sounded in his ears, with a teasing tone in his tone.

Chen Zun suddenly turned his head and saw Xu Huayun standing next to him with a slight smile.

Chen Zun had a look of embarrassment on his face, and briefly explained how he met the deadly scholar when he was practicing in an extremely cold place, and how he saved Ji Yanwu.

No, he also specifically explained the relationship between the two.

"That's the situation. I just did what I could and didn't think she owed me anything."

After hearing this, Xu Huayun glanced at Chen Zun strangely, and said with some meaning: "I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Chen Zun was puzzled: "Then what does she mean?"

Shui Yuezhai's disciples are extremely conservative and would not easily give away personal belongings to others, especially men. Therefore, Ji Yanwu was not just repaying the favor of saving her life.

A girl yearns for spring and a boy admires her. These are the emotions that should be felt at this age.

However, Xu Huayun did not intend to point it out, but was happy to see the result.

If the apprentice abducts Shuiyuezhai's precious disciple, Shuiyuezhai's master would probably be furious to death.

Thinking of this, Xu Huayun was a little gloating, and then walked towards the main hall with his hands behind his hands.

"Let's go, it's time to temper your body."

Chen Zun sighed. He couldn't understand and didn't think too much. He put away the brocade handkerchief, stood up and followed Xu Huayun.

If I see Ji Yanwu in the future, I will still give this brocade handkerchief back to her.
