Chapter 18
It is obvious that Ye Lingxuan did not expect Pei Du to have the same idea as him.
After all, as far as he knew, Pei Du was not a person who got close to others.
He frowned slightly, glanced in Feng Yunjing's direction, and finally chose to take a step back.
He turned his head and looked away, feeling a little embarrassed.
Ye Lingxuan knew that even if he didn't retreat, Feng Yunjing would definitely choose Pei Du without hesitation.
It's better for him to take the initiative now and save the young man from getting entangled.
Seeing that Ye Lingxuan took a step back, the system did not let go of the sense of crisis in its heart. Instead, it angrily said to Pei Du:
"Host, this person is too scheming. He must know that the male protagonist will not choose him. So I took the initiative to quit, so that I can perfectly leave a good impression on the hero."
Pei Du felt that the system might be overly concerned.
Looking at the young man's focused gaze that was looking directly at him, his own reflection was reflected in the depths of his clear eyes, not giving any attention to the person next to him.
Her eyes were full of expectation, as if she was waiting for his call.
Pei Du smiled and waved to Feng Yunjing: "Come here."
Feng Yunjing suppressed the joy in his heart and carefully approached Pei Du, standing not too far away from him.
From that distance, as long as there was a gentle breeze, he could smell the cold fragrance coming from the man's body, which made him inexplicably intoxicated.
Pei Du glanced at Ye Lingxuan, saw that his face was calm, and then looked away.
With the spiritual energy in his hand, the sword gradually emitted a light blue light and appeared in mid-air.
The sword body was illuminated by the sun's shadow, but it still had a faint cold light. The sword's hilt was engraved with silver-white ice flower case, and there were two words that were difficult to detect.
Ice Xuan.
This is the first time Feng Yunjing meets Pei
Watari took out his side sword.
The man's eyes were fixed on the sword in front of him. The bright blue sword light made Pei Du's face look even clearer.
so beautiful.
Feng Yunjing secretly thought in his heart, he just didn't know whether he was talking about a person or a sword.
The sword gradually grew larger, reaching a size large enough to hold two people.
Pei Du stood up first and stretched out his hand towards Feng Yunjing.
Feng Yunjing looked at the man's well-joined fingers, raised his head and glanced at Pei Du, hesitated, and finally grasped it.
The slightly cold fingers were gradually wrapped in warm palms. With Pei Du's strength, Feng Yunjing stood steadily on the sword.
Pei Du raised his eyes, looked at Ye Lingxuan, and said to him calmly: "Meet up at Qingshi Town."
Qingshi Town is the only way to the Northern Territory, and it is also a resting place for all those who go to the Northern Territory.
Ye Lingxuan didn't ask any more questions, just nodded.
The spiritual energy rises and he walks with the sword.
The sword suddenly shot into the air, and Feng Yunjing felt that his center of gravity was unstable and his body swayed.
Just when Feng Yunjing thought he was about to fall, a hand suddenly appeared on his waist and pulled him back, directly pressing him into his arms.
Pei Du's voice rang in his ears: "Hold on to me."
Feng Yunjing subconsciously hugged Pei Du's waist tightly.
Pei Du was slightly startled, but he hugged the boy without finding him.
He lowered his head slightly and looked at the young man's pale profile. Knowing that this was his first time wielding a sword in the air, he let him go.
Only when his head was pressed against the man's chest and a slight heaving sensation came, Feng Yunjing realized what he had done.
But he did not withdraw, and still quietly leaned his head on Pei Du's body.
It seems that this is the only way to feel safe.
After a while, Feng Yunjing finally gradually adapted to flying in the air, and then slightly opened the distance between him and Pei Du.
But with the narrow sword, he was still very close to Pei Du despite the distance.
Feng Yunjing raised his head slightly, just in time to see the man's smooth chin, high bridge of nose, and the pair of dark eyes looking forward under the curled eyelashes.
As if he noticed Feng Yunjing's gaze, Pei Du thought something was wrong with the young man.
He lowered his head directly. Unexpectedly, his lips just brushed against the young man's slightly raised cheek.
It was so light that he thought it was just his own imagination.
It wasn't until he saw the boy's slightly red cheeks that he realized this was not an illusion.
Pei Du coughed slightly in embarrassment and looked away, acting as if nothing had happened.
After all, in his eyes, the male protagonist in front of him is just a young man, and there is no ambiguity in his heart at all.
But in Feng Yunjing's heart, it was different.
Fourteen or fifteen years old is the age when love begins. At this time, Feng Yunjing met Pei Du.
Although Feng Yunjing is still confused in his heart now, Feng Yunjing knows that every time he gets close to Pei Du, he will be overjoyed.
Although he knew that maybe it was all just a coincidence.
But the secret joy growing in my heart cannot be ignored.
But he didn't want to suppress it, he just wanted to let it grow wildly.
The two of them flew with their swords for about a day, and then they arrived at Qingshi Town.
Landing at the entrance of Qingshi Town, Pei Du put away his sword.
At this time, the night was getting darker, and there was a mist outside the town. Maybe it was because it was dark and the surroundings were silent.
Of course there is another possibility, this place may have been occupied by monsters.
But no matter what, they have to settle here.
After all, the young man's cultivation is just to practice Qi. Long-distance flying with a sword will make him physically uncomfortable. If he misses this place, he can only settle in the Northern Territory.
In addition, the fog is thick now, and it may become more and more dangerous to continue moving forward.
I wonder where Ye Lingxuan is now.
Pei Du's expression slightly condensed and he said to the boy beside him: "Follow me."
Hearing the seriousness in Pei Du's voice, Feng Yunjing nodded quickly and followed Pei Du closely.
Walking inside, the fog gradually dissipated, revealing a faint moonlight, and the town gradually began to smell of lights.
Walking further inside, you can hear the faint sounds of vendors selling goods. It no longer looks like the desolate place when you first entered the town. It seems to be somewhat similar to an ordinary small town outside.
Feng Yunjing was startled when a person suddenly appeared in front of him, and he moved directly towards Pei Du.
Pei Du pulled the young man behind him and looked at the person who suddenly appeared.
The man was not tall and had his head lowered.
As if he noticed Pei Du's gaze, the man suddenly raised his head and grinned.
He was very familiar with them and said eagerly: "You two are new here and haven't found a place to stay yet. It just so happens that I can take you to the largest inn in the town." The man said to him with a smile on his face
. As Pei Du and the others spoke, there was a sparkle in his eyes, and the ends of his eyes were full of wrinkles. His ugly face looked a little ferocious at the moment.
He looked at Pei Du and the others closely, as if staring at two big fat sheep.
Pei Du frowned slightly, feeling disgusted by the man's gaze, and politely declined: "No, thank you."
The expression on the man's face did not change. He might have expected this result, and finally just said: "That's such a pity."
Pei Du and Feng Yunjing clearly heard the sound of the man's throat rolling and swallowing saliva.
Feng Yunjing's body stiffened slightly.
Pei Du's expression did not change. He nodded slightly and left the place with Feng Yunjing.
The man looked at their leaving figures, his eyes seemed to be filled with green light, all his eyes were focused on Feng Yunjing, and he whispered hoarsely: "Delicious food, we will see you soon."
After walking a long way and unable to see that figure anymore, Feng Yunjing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Young Master, what did we encounter just now?"
Although he couldn't see the original shape of the thing, Feng Yunjing knew that it was definitely not a person.
"Nightmare demon." Pei Du said in a calm tone as he walked, "Using dreams as a medium to devour people's souls and improve their own demonic cultivation." After hearing this, Feng Yunjing couldn't help but think of the look in the man's eyes just now
, A chill arose all over his body, and he continued to ask: "Then why is this monster here?"
Pei Du stopped, looked at Feng Yunjing, and explained: "The territory of the Northern Territory is in chaos, and monsters are running rampant. Beichen must be unable to take care of this place at this time, so he allows these monsters to take advantage of him."
At this time, the jade pendant around his waist emitted a faint light, Pei Du glanced at the message coming from the jade pendant, and faced Feng Yunjing Said:
"Ye Lingxuan has found the inn, let's meet him now."
The two followed the route sent by Ye Lingxuan and found an inn hidden on the corner of the street.
Yun Laike, these three characters were engraved on the plaque, which was hung crookedly outside the inn, looking a bit crude.
But although this inn is remote and simple, it is very popular.
All those who came in and out were cultivators, with mortals in the smallest minority, almost a handful.
Pei Du and Feng Yunjing stepped into the inn and immediately saw Ye Lingxuan sitting in the back.
They walked over and sat down.
Ye Lingxuan poured a cup of tea intentionally or unintentionally and placed it in front of Feng Yunjing.
Feng Yunjing was very accustomed to pouring a cup of tea for Pei Du first, placing it in front of Pei Du, and then poured a cup for himself. He pushed the cup that Ye Lingxuan poured over and said politely to him. Thank you.
He lowered his head and sipped the tea in his cup.
Pei Du glanced at Ye Lingxuan with a half-smile, raised his eyebrows slightly, and took a sip of the tea poured by the young man.
Even though it was low-quality tea, Pei Du still tasted something different.
Ye Lingxuan took the tea cup back expressionlessly and put it aside, as if nothing happened just now.
After a while, he suddenly said to Pei Du: "This inn is the only inn in Qingshi Town where people live." This
means that the other inns are not occupied by people.
Thinking of this, Pei Du's eyes darkened slightly. It seemed that this was more serious than he thought.
"Oh, by the way, when I arrived, there were only two rooms left here." Ye Lingxuan added lightly.
This sentence made Feng Yunjing pause slightly. There were only two rooms left, but there were three of them, how could they live there?
The young master must not like living with others, Feng Yunjing thought to himself.
He thought he was very considerate, so he took the initiative and said, "Senior Brother Ye and I are together."
After the young man finished speaking, the two men opposite him put down their glasses at the same time.
Ye Lingxuan was a little surprised that the young man would choose to be with him at this time.
And Pei Du's face instantly darkened, with a hint of coolness in his eyes, he said coldly to the young man: "Say it again."
