Chapter 169 Moonlight
The bitterness in my heart spreads like a vine, wrapping my heart tightly.

So sad.
It should have been hers, but it was taken by someone else, and yet she couldn't be angry at that person.

In order not to make her sad, I couldn't even express any dissatisfaction.

The murderous intent hung in my heart, neither going up nor down, and it just made me feel uncomfortable.

Bai Minxin paused and said, Jin'er, it wasn't intentional. She is still young and doesn't understand these things.

Besides, Jin'er is also very important.
Even as she thought about it, she still felt dizzy and shook her head.

Ignoring what Jin'er just said,
He glared at Jiang He with dissatisfaction and said, "Don't do this kind of thing in the future. Don't bully Jin'er because she is young and ignorant."

Jiang He pursed his lips subconsciously. Is it sweet?
He thought Jin'er's little mouth was quite sweet, with a soft milky scent and a hint of sweetness.

"Minxin, let's go and light the lanterns."

Seeing that Bai Minxin's expression had returned to normal, Jiang Yuanxia stepped forward and held her hand.

Jiang He looked at her gratefully.

Jiang He knew in his heart that Min Xin was probably jealous, and he was not a fool.

I have noticed her expression these days, but it is normal when I think about it.

Before the other disciples came back, he spent all day and night with this girl, but now the time he spends with her is very limited.

No matter what, it has nothing to do with love, there will always be some gap.

Jiang Yuanxia smiled at him uncomfortably, and the smile on her face seemed a little forced.

Her eyes wandered and she accidentally curled his lips.

He could no longer maintain his smile, and he lowered his head, pulling Bai Minxin towards the river.

Jiang He sighed slightly. What happened just now still left a knot in the hearts of his two disciples.

After all, Jin'er is their common junior sister.
"Jin'er, follow the master."

Jiang He just stretched out his hand to pull Jin'er, but Jiang Yuanxia turned around hurriedly, bowed slightly to him, and said respectfully:
"Master, let me take care of Jin'er."

She pulled Jin'er behind her defensively, holding one in each hand, just like she did four years ago.
"Ugh."

They both sighed at the same time.

Jiang He and the little boy beside him looked at each other.

The dejected little boy quickly covered his mouth, and after a moment he said embarrassedly:

"Sir, I'm leaving first? I'm not needed here anymore, am I?"

Jiang He shrank his neck. The atmosphere was too awkward and he couldn't blame Jin'er.

What can Jiner understand?
I can only blame myself for not knowing that the little girl has a simple mind.

He patted the little boy's head and said, "Don't leave yet. Stay with me. When we get back, maybe I can heal your sister's leg."

Just kidding, if we let this little boy go, it would be even more embarrassing for him to be here alone.

Having someone by your side can always ease the atmosphere.

After walking along the river for a while and reaching their destination, Bai Minxin seemed to be in a better mood. He put a wishing note into the lantern and threw it into the river.

With his hands clasped together, he looked at the lanterns floating down the river with a pious look.

Soon, the lighted lanterns disappeared into the night.

"Minxin, what wish did you make?"

Jiang He wanted to please him, so he came forward and asked.

She looked melancholy, sighed faintly, and ignored him.

"If you speak out your wishes, they won't come true, Master."

Jiang Yuanxia tried to smooth things over and looked at him ingratiatingly.

A thin body stood in front of him.

As if he would hurt Bai Minxin.

"But it's really a lot quieter here, there aren't so many boats."

"Of course! Although this place is not far from the Lantern Festival, there are not many people here. It is a good place to display lanterns."

The little boy's face was filled with a happy smile again.

The moonlight was somewhat dim. Jiang He placed his hands on the railing of the stone bridge, his eyes fixed on the dark river surface below. Lanterns from upstream kept floating on the river surface, and the light emitted by them dotted the eyes of the three disciples.

The trickling water is mixed with the sounds of frogs and insects.

I remember when I was in Aoki Castle, there were often sounds of different kinds of birds and insects in the backyard. Of course, what impressed Jiang He the most was the neighbor's parrot.

In the past few years, things and people have changed, and I have been constantly displaced.

Jiang He missed the past years a little. If the incident with the Snake Lord had not happened, everything would be different now.

The apprentice did not become eccentric after those four years. Although he treated him badly, his life was progressing in an orderly manner.

Jiang He suddenly said: "Yuan Xia, do you want to live in seclusion with Master in the future? I won't go back to your Shanfa Temple. The world is so big, I don't believe that the gods can find us."

The lights on the river surface flickered in her eyes.

After the endless stream of lanterns inexplicably stopped, everything in her eyes became dark.

The black-haired girl leaned on the bridge railing and whispered, "No."

She first looked at the river, and when she saw the lights were gone, she looked at his face, as if waiting for him to speak.

No, rather than unwilling?
Was it because of the restriction imposed by the Divine Sense Sect, or for some other reason?
Jiang He looked at the lanterns that were inexplicably missing from the river and looked upstream along the river.

His expression changed, and at some point, a huge black boat appeared across the river.

He had seen this huge boat before and had paid some attention to it.

After all, all the lights on it are off. It stands out among the bustling giant ships and it is hard not to attract attention.

But at that time he noticed the presence of a cultivator on the black boat. However, at this moment, the environment was not as complicated as before, so he did not sense the aura of the black boat.

"Jiang Yuanxia, ​​not bad. You actually have such a refined taste."

A man in a moon-white gown slowly walked out from the night. He had a long and narrow face and a pointed chin.

A chilling, strong smell of blood emanated from him.

He pinched his chin and looked at them with a smile:

"I thought it was an illusion. The outside world once said that you were a banished immortal who was not tainted by the mundane world, so you never entered the world. But now I see that the rumors are all false."

Jiang Yuanxia raised her eyes slightly, and the black boat came into her sight. A mocking smile appeared on the corner of her lips:
"Yuehua, you ruined my mood, do you know the consequences?"

"Do not misunderstand."

The man spread his hands innocently, his eyes greedily looking at the junior sister behind her, "I'm just curious, what kind of junior sister is this that can make the Son of Good Law accompany her at a time like this, she is indeed extraordinary. This is a treat for you. Such a delicate girl must taste very good."

"Shut up!"

Jiang Yuanxia's hands, which were gripping the bridge railing, had bulging veins, looking somewhat ferocious, and he did not make any movement. The stars in the sky and the lights on the river became blurred at this moment, as if separating the few people into another world.

Jiang He's eyes were stunned. This method was a bit like her previous symptoms of personality disintegration.

Is this a magical power that Yuan Xia created based on his own mental illness?

"You want to fight me now? You need to think carefully. I may not be your opponent, but your junior sister will not be able to get away with it."

The man was fearless. He had been defeated by Jiang Yuanxia a few years ago. But if he was allowed to fight desperately, Jiang Yuanxia would find it difficult to take care of others. Besides, he dared to come here and had a backup plan.

He shouldn't have come here, but who made him meet Jiang Yuanxia by accident?

I've never seen her look so gentle.
What expression would she have if she were to eat alive such a beloved junior sister?

Yuehua Shengzi was inexplicably excited. He closed his eyes and savored the pleasure of his body. He sighed comfortably:
"Where is Xiao An? If he hadn't been there to protect you, you would have died in my hands a long time ago. But I don't think you would tell it. He disappeared a year ago. I think he is still in Shangqing County now. He must have come here specifically for me."

Jiang Yuanxia remained silent and did not comment. She slowly exhaled.

The words of the Moon Saint touched her weak spot. She could hardly control her anger, and even her rationality gradually dissipated.

Even the Holy Son Yuehua did not expect this.

He watched the world around him become increasingly blurry and frowned secretly.

What's going on? Jiang Yuanxia has never been so uncalm before. Doesn't she care about her junior sister's life?

Speaking of her junior sisters, the white-haired girl among them also had an extraordinary aura, and her eyes were filled with murderous intent, which made him feel a chill down his spine.

What kind of person is this white-haired girl?
But he did not panic, and said to Jiang Yuanxia confidently:

"Maybe I am no match for you, but I can't say the same about your two junior sisters. Oh, and your master, tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect your master to have such a low level of cultivation. How can he have the nerve to stay by your side? I'm afraid he will make you sick."

Yuehua looked at Jiang He in surprise and said to herself:
"Is this actually the real Jiang He? Sure enough, the man before was the legendary thief. What a pity, I didn't even notice it."

Jiang Yuanxia's eyes became clearer. She knew that if Saint Yuehua attacked without hesitation, most of the mortals nearby would be killed or injured. Even if these mortals were not taken into consideration, Jin'er would not be able to withstand the remaining power:

"We have already agreed to fight to the death. Are you going to break the agreement?"

After learning about the Qingyang Immortal Sect's plan from Jiang He, she openly challenged the Holy Son Yuehua to a life-and-death duel, determined the time and place, and made plans in advance.

Prevent the Holy Son Yuehua from making a sudden move, which would cause the Qingyang Immortal Sect to take advantage of the chaos to make a move.

“No, I just wanted to see you.”

The Holy Son of Yuehua sighed. He was very curious about who could make a madman like him become gentle.

"Now that you've seen enough, you can go away." Jiang Yuanxia's face was cold and unmoved.

Jiang He had never seen Yuan Xia's sinister look before, but she suffered from a serious mental illness and it was difficult for her to communicate with outsiders.

She is definitely not as cold-hearted as she appears on the surface. Yuehua probably doesn't know that although Yuan Xia is telling him to get out, it will actually be difficult to continue negotiations.

Jiang He paused. He saw Bai Minxin, who had looked melancholy and didn't want to pay attention to him, winked at him.

The two of them have always had a tacit understanding, and he knew that Min Xin wanted to ask him whether he could help.

He thought about it and shook his head slightly.

The elders of the Divine Sense Church will certainly not directly participate in the fights between the Sons of God, but that does not mean there is no protection.

Otherwise, he would have been assassinated by the people from the Immortal Sect.

For example, Yuan Xia’s protector is the Snake Lord, and Yue Hua also has a protector at the Jindan Zhenren level.

Besides, these protectors appear to not care about the fights between the saints, but they may not be without selfish motives.
The Snake Venerable was supposed to be a great helper to Yuan Xia and the protector of the Holy Son of Yuehua.

But the Snake Lord has now become a useless person and is no longer of any use.

When it comes to dealing with the protector of the Holy Son of Yuehua, Jiang He could already guess that Yuan Xia had the same idea as him.

That is to drive the tiger to devour the wolf, and use the people of Qingyang Immortal Sect to deal with it.

This is also one of the reasons why Yuan Xia has not reported the Qingyang Immortal Sect’s group to the Shengan Sect until now.

Bai Minxin frowned, and after understanding what Jiang He meant, he pouted his lips with an unhappy expression.

How could she have any hope for Jiang He?
A long time ago, this person would not take any risks for them, no matter how much injustice they had to endure.

Even if this Yuehua Saint has ill intentions towards my sister, even if there is a chance to kill him now.

Jiang He still won't take action
She was in a gloomy mood and felt that her four years of wandering were a joke.

A complete and utter joke.

Bai Minxin felt a sway in front of his eyes and his mind felt as if the world was spinning.

It's hers in the first place, so why doesn't it always go her way?

"Leave? Do you think I came here just to see you?"

Yuehua wiped her mouth slowly and methodically, grinning,

"I came here this time to obey the order from above. I want to ask you why the head of the Shanfa Palace has lost contact in recent years? As your protector, you must know something about it."

Jiang He's heart skipped a beat. If the Divine Sense Sect knew that Yuan Xia had attacked the Snake Lord, she would not be able to escape even if she was extremely talented.

It seems that the Shengan Sect has also discovered something wrong now.
Jiang Yuanxia's expression remained unchanged as he looked at him coldly:
"The Palace Master's injuries have not healed yet. He is still recuperating and does not want to contact the outside world for the time being."

"Oh? That's good. I thought something happened to the Shanfa Palace Master. But, the church will send an elder to personally heal the Shanfa Palace Master in the near future. I hope everything is fine."

Yuehua said meaningfully, put her hands behind her back in boredom, and slowly retreated back to the black boat.

In the sight of several people, the black boat disappeared into the night again.

"Is this person the legendary Son of Moonlight?"

Bai Minxin's face also turned much colder. Jiang He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he could sense a hint of anger in the look she gave him.

But the word "angry" has nothing to do with Minxin's personality.

Is she blaming herself for not taking action?
But this girl has always been the one who understands me the most. Even when I sent Jin'er away, she was the one who comforted me.

Jiang He stopped thinking about these unimportant things and frowned:

"What kind of magic weapon is this black boat? It can actually hide it from me and Min Xin."

He still underestimated these people. He always thought that he possessed the secret technique of the dragon clan to gather energy, and with the help of the Xuanhuang Pearl, he would have a clear insight into the surrounding environment. However, if Yuehua had not revealed her figure on her own initiative, he would have found it difficult to find her trace.

"Master, Minxin, you don't have to worry about Yuehua's affairs."

Jiang Yuanxia's expression was no longer as cold as before, and he looked exhausted.

She sighed silently. Even if her master knew, what could she do?
