Chapter 721: Unusual Feelings
mmediately have someone check on Master Kongmian's whereabouts!" He suddenly thought, before in Lanshan Temple and outside the Xiao residence, Master Kongmian had spoken to Ge’er in some words he didn...“I’ll be lighter, I’ll go up and get it! But, I need to use your shoulder for leverage. When I come down later, you just throw the vine back to me!” Xiao Yuge finished speaking, gently swaying, stepping on his shoulders, lightly tapping, in a blink of an eye, she was on top of where the Soulgrass grew.
Her sudden, forceful movement made even Long Yuan, who was well-versed in the ways of the world, have to admire her: he couldn't believe that such a young girl could possess such incredible lightness and agility. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.
Although he didn't know how skilled she was in martial arts, he was grateful at this moment that he hadn't fought her yesterday. Otherwise, he wasn't sure if he could have beaten her.
Xiao Yu Ge carefully pulled up the Revive Grass and placed it on her person. Then, she exchanged a glance with Long Yuan below, and took a deep breath before leaping down!
At the same time, Long Yuan flung another vine from his hand toward her!
Xiao Yu's song held onto the vine steadily, and the vine habitually swayed to the side!
"Be careful!" Just as Xiao Yuge's body was about to hit the stone, Long Yuan grabbed her. At this time, he didn't even care about propriety.
In this special circumstance, Xiao Yuge didn't mind his rude behavior. However, Long Yuan felt very uncomfortable. He held her soft waist with one hand, and the faint scent of a young girl came to him from time to time. The jet-black, shiny hair would playfully brush against his cheek from time to time, making him blush and his heart race. It seemed like he was feeling sweaty and flustered, and a strange feeling began to sprout and spread in his heart......
They quickly returned to the ground. Xiao Yuge let go of his hand and turned back, only to see him sweating profusely. She thought it might be because she was too heavy: "Sorry, I might have been a little too heavy..."
Qian Tingxuan always effortlessly held her up with one hand, so she always thought she was very light.
"No! It's not..." Longyu opened his mouth to explain, but he couldn't utter a word. How could he say that the reason he was sweating profusely was because of nervousness
“We’ve collected almost all the necessary herbs, let’s head back quickly.” Xiao Yuge stopped asking any further questions, she just wanted to finish things here as soon as possible and go back. She wondered if Qian Tingxuan had seen the letter, if he hadn’t, wouldn’t he worry again
"Good!" Long Yuan came to his senses and hurried after her, his sleeves and hands still seeming to carry the faint fragrance unique to her. His heart began to beat irregularly again.
Thanks to Xiao Yu Ge's efforts, the old village head's injuries were finally treated properly.
"Alright, just change his dressing on time every day, and in less than half a month, he'll be fully recovered." Xiao Yuge stretched her lazy bones, shook her numb hands and feet, and finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you! You worked so hard!" Long Yuan's heart was filled with gratitude, but he could only silently gaze at her.
If you really want to thank me, then just get me some food first. I'm so hungry, I only have two intestines left. At this moment, Xiao Yuge finally felt that she was really a bit hungry.
“Alright, alright! I’ll arrange it right away!” Long Yuan hurriedly ordered someone to bring the already prepared food to the courtyard. He wanted her to come inside and eat with him, but he knew how important reputation was for a woman. Eating in the same room as a man would be detrimental to her image if it got out. So, he sent the food to the courtyard instead.
In the courtyard, so many eyes were watching, not afraid that anyone would gossip behind their backs.
Seeing Xiao Yuge eat with relish, Long Yuan couldn't help but smile: she even looked beautiful while eating. He also secretly sighed, perhaps there was no other woman in the world as beautiful and lively as her. He had already been content to have met her, how could he dare to ask for anything more
"How come you're not eating" Xiao Yuge ate half of her meal before realizing that Long Yuan hadn't taken a single bite. She felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Sorry, am I being too rude" She hadn't eaten since last night and was truly starving.
"No, I just ate some, so I'm not hungry. You should eat quickly. If it's not enough, I'll have someone bring more. There's food in the stronghold now." Long Yu didn't know that at this moment, there was nothing else in his eyes except her.
"Enough, enough, I've eaten quite a lot already." Xiao Yuge looked at the nearly finished meal and awkwardly stuck out her tongue: "I ate it all myself."
Her adorable and playful appearance left Long Yuan speechless. He couldn't imagine that the composed and calm woman from last night could have such a charming and cute side. Perhaps, stripped of all her glory, she was just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.
"By the way, Young Leader, you promised me a condition yesterday....... " Xiao Yu Ge felt that to solve the problems of Yulong Village from the root cause, he still had to let Long Yuan find another way.
"Miss, you can ask me to do anything, and I will agree!" He saved the entire village, and his foster father. In his eyes, she was a benefactor of the whole village, and also a great benefactor to him and his foster father. So, no matter what she asked him to do, even if it meant his life, he would be willing.
“Your Yu Long Village has always been robbing the rich to help the poor. In the eyes of the common people, you are benefactors without a doubt. But in the eyes of the government, you are still bandits. You're ultimately not honest with your name and actions. It’s better for you to join a major martial arts sect. This way, you can continue to help the people with confidence and no longer have to bear the stigma of being bandits. What do you think”
Long Yuan lowered his eyebrows and smiled wryly: "This, I haven't thought about it. It's just that our Yulong Village is just a small mountain village, how could the big sects in the Jianghu easily let us join"
"So, you're willing" Xiao Yuge heard the tone in his voice and knew that things were halfway there. While Yu Longzhai was just a small mountain village, they had the support of the people living in the valley. They helped them, and in the future, with their help, they would be able to merge with the opposing mountain villages. By then, they would surely become powerful.
"Of course, we would be willing if any martial arts schools are willing to accept us." Long Yuan gave her a very affirmative reply.
"Good!" Xiao Yu Ge said straightforwardly: "I have some acquaintance with the master of Frost and Snow Pavilion. If you are willing, I can introduce you to him. What do you think"
"Frost Snow Pavilion Is that the top pavilion in the world, Frost Snow Pavilion, that the county princess is talking about" Long Yuan was greatly shocked. He was surprised that this pampered county princess actually had a relationship with the owner of the top pavilion, Frost Snow Pavilion. You have to know that no one in the Jianghu has ever seen the owner of Frost Snow Pavilion, and besides, being able to join this number one pavilion in the Jianghu means that from now on, all the brothers of their Yu Long Village will no longer live the life they used to.
Of course, he never dreamed that the Xiao Yu Ge before him was the new owner of the Frost and Snow Building! appeared to lack real power outwardly, everyone knew that no one in the capital dared to defy him. He might not hold official authority, but he was undoubtedly second only to the emperor, revered by...
