White Snake: I am a Swordsman

Chapter 23 The night is still long
Xiaoqing raised her head and found Xu Xian staring at her intently, and she couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

"Why are you looking at me?" She frowned and said, "Come here and make some medicine!"

Xu Xian nodded slightly.

He walked to the earthenware jar, took the spoon from Xiaoqing's hand, and stirred it a few times symbolically.

It doesn’t matter if you have no experience, don’t we have Xiaoqing?

It just so happens that both women are snake demons.

Xu Xian was in deep thought.

The experience gained from Xiaoqing should be applied to Xiaobai as well.
He pad the earthen jar with a rag and carried it outside.

"Is it ready?" Xiaoqing had no idea what Xu Xian was thinking. She chased Xu Xian out of the door, wanting Xiaobai to take the medicine as soon as possible.

Xu Xian nodded: "It's done. Let it cool down and you can drink it."

Time passed quietly.

Soon, the sun sank completely below the horizon, and after Xiaobai drank the medicine, he insisted on leaving.

As the night deepened and the place became quiet, Heizhuer Lane gradually became peaceful.

Xu Xian sat cross-legged on the bed.

A shadow floated out from his body, and its appearance was exactly the same as his.

This is his soul.

He couldn't teach Xiaoqing in person, but he could teach her in her dream.

This is called "The Great Dream Cultivation Method", which was taught by his master.

Those who master this method can practice in their dreams, and the effect is no worse than in reality.

He used this method to guide Xiaoqing, which enabled Xiaoqing to bring back what she learned in the dream to reality, which was more profound than the practice in reality.

"I hope Xiaoqing is good at swordplay."

Xu Xian remembered that when he rescued the two women during the day, Xiaoqing took away a magic sword.

He hopes Xiaoqing knows a little about sword.

That way, his teaching would be much easier.

"go!"

Xu Xian rode the wind and flew away at high speed, following Xiaoqing's evil spirit.

Soon, he found the two women.

They were not living in the city, but under a waterfall several miles outside the city.

As soon as he arrived, he heard Xiao Qing bragging: "It's just a talisman, maybe that bald donkey can only draw talismans. If he dares to come, I will swallow him up in one gulp and let him know how powerful I am!"

He has little ability but a big mouth.

Xu Xian shook his head.

Fahai has mastered the true teachings of Buddhism and has great magical powers. If Xiaoqing faces Fahai with this attitude, she will be in great danger.

"Xiaoqing, Fahai is very good at drawing talismans, and his other skills must be good as well. You must not be careless." Xiaobai sat by the water, with a hint of worry between his brows.

She kicked the water lightly with her bare feet.

The moonlight fell on her shoulders, unable to stick, and slid into the water along her lotus-root-like white arms.

Xu Xian stood in her shadow.

"Sister." Xiaoqing's tone softened.

She hugged Xiaobai's waist, put her face against Xiaobai's chest, and whispered softly: "I know Fahai is powerful, I just don't want my sister to worry."

"but."

"Xu Xian is just an ordinary man, he will live to be 70 or 80 at best. Is it really worth your risk for him?"

"I smell like medicine. It's so awful."

“It’s still boring!”

"If I were you, I would just meet up once in a while to satisfy my cravings, that would be fine."

"Why do you have to marry him?"

In the shadows, Xu Xian listened silently.

"Xiaoqing, don't say these words anymore."

Xiaobai pushed Xiaoqing away. She looked at the moon in the sky and said softly, "No matter how many times you ask, my answer is only one, and that is worth it."

"This heart can be proved by the bright moon."

Xu Xian raised his head, followed Xiaobai's gaze, and looked up at the moon in the sky.

The bright moonlight reflected in his eyes, clear and moving.

"Okay!" Xiaoqing tilted her head.

Xiaoqing hugged Xiaobai and talked about the moon above their heads with great interest.

Xu Xian didn't want to wait any longer.

Xiaoqing is the type of monster that doesn't sleep often.

But now that he is here, Xiaoqing has no choice but to decide whether to sleep or not.

A breeze blew and Xiaoqing began to yawn.

She rubbed her eyes and felt her eyelids were heavy as if they were filled with lead: "Strange, why do I feel a little sleepy?"

"I don't want to go to sleep yet." Her voice became lower and lower.

Xiaobai put Xiaoqing's head on her lap and rubbed her hair: "You have suffered a lot of injuries today, it is normal to feel sleepy, just take a nap if you are sleepy."

"I'll protect you." Xiaoqing nodded vigorously, and her eyes went dark.

After an unknown amount of time, she opened her eyes and found herself lying on a cold stone.

She stood up suddenly.

"Where's my sister?" She looked around warily, "What is this place?"

The light came from nowhere, just illuminating the ground beneath her feet.

The crisscrossing lines cut the earth into countless pieces. Looking around, there were remains of demons everywhere.

The fierce wind blew from south to north, scraping Xiaoqing's skin like a blade.

Xiaoqing felt a dull pain all over her body.

She couldn't help but reveal her half-snake, half-human body. Her hard scales blocked the wind, but couldn't block the dark clouds in her heart.

Xu Xian came down from a height holding a sword.

"This is your dream." He whispered, "I will let you out when you defeat me."

His figure was blurry and his voice was erratic.

"Really?" Xiao Qing said angrily, "Then go to hell!"

She pounced on Xu Xian with her fangs and claws bared. She was clearly a snake demon, but she had the aura of a crab demon.

Xu Xian held the sword without blinking.

A flash of cold light!
"Ugh!" Xiaoqing fell to the ground.

She lowered her head and looked at the sword piercing her heart, her face full of disbelief.

A pain she had never experienced before flooded her mind.

She twitched uncontrollably.

At this moment, she lost her sense of magic power and inner elixir, as if she had become a mortal.

She felt very cold.

The life drained from her heart and a cold darkness took over her body.

"elder sister."

Her pupils dilated and she lost consciousness while mumbling.

Xu Xian looked at her quietly.

"what!"

Xiaoqing screamed and jumped up.

She rubbed her chest nervously and found that she was unharmed.

Looking around, she was back to where she started.

"I will let you out when you defeat me." Xu Xian stood opposite Xiaoqing and said without emotion.

Xiaoqing was much more obedient this time.

"Who are you?" she asked warily.

Xu Xian ignored her and just repeated: "When you defeat me, I will let you out."

"Is this really my dream? How did you get in?" Xiaoqing asked again.

Xu Xian said coldly: "When you defeat me, I will let you go."

"Damn it, is that all you can say?" Xiaoqing clenched her fists in anger.

My limited patience has been exhausted.

She picked up a sword from the pile of corpses, rushed towards Xu Xian, and slashed wildly: "Go to hell, bastard!"

"That's not how you use a sword." Xu Xian raised his hand, crossed Xiaoqing's chopping path, and stabbed lightly.

Blood flowers bloomed in the same place.

Pfft!
Xiaoqing looked at the sword that was pierced into her heart and showed an expression of disbelief again.

How could it be? I was clearly prepared.
The severe pain hit her nerves, and this time she fainted from the pain.

"what!"

Xiaoqing jumped up from the ground.

She rubbed her chest vigorously and raised her head. As expected, Xu Xian was standing in front of her.

Xiaoqing was trembling all over.

She realized that she was no match for Xu Xian.

But she refused to give up.

"Go to hell!"

"Uh!"

"Kill me if you can!"

"Uh!"

"In the end what you want?"

"Uh!"

"."

Xu Xian once again pulled the sword from Xiaoqing's body, and he looked up at the moon tonight.

Well, the night is still long.
