Confessing to someone who thinks I'm a fat otaku, and then crying when monsters descend?

Mu Qingxuan and Chen Nian hugged outside for a while.

After their passionate conversation, the former suddenly asked, "Chen Nian, what about your relationship with Lin Xian'er from the Heavenly Pool Sacred Land...?"

"Just ordinary friends, absolutely no relation!"

"Hmph, I see you two have a pretty good relationship, even sticking together through thick and thin."

"It's a misunderstanding. Lin Xian'er is nowhere near as good as you."

Mu Qingxuan didn't pursue the matter further: "Let's go inside. It's not a good place to talk outside."

"it is good."

Inside the room, four people sat around a table.

Bo Yi poured a cup of tea: "Having heard of Brother Chen's heroic deeds, I offer you this cup of tea instead of wine."

Having said that, he drank it all in one gulp.

"By the way, Chen Nian, how did you find us?"

"It was your senior sister Jin who told me."

"So it was her..."

The group suddenly realized that only Jinshu knew where they were hiding.

"Heroes of the world are born from our generation. I never expected that several renowned figures would gather in my humble thatched hut. Come, let's drink!"

"Pfft, it's a notorious wanted criminal, isn't it!"

"Dry!"

Chen Nian asked, "What are your plans for the future? You can't keep hiding forever."

"It is indeed a problem. If I could... I would like to fight back with my sword and prove myself to the whole world." Mu Yun began to imagine the scene of showing off his divine power in front of people, his blood boiling.

But Chen Nian proposed a more practical solution.

"Actually, we could bring Qingxuan back to the academy..."

"What kind of place is the academy?" Mu Qingxuan asked.

"It's a place separate from the rest of the world. That's where I met your brother."

"Interesting, existing outside the chessboard, not within the game, it's fascinating. I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to go there."

Unexpectedly, Mu Qingxuan refused.

"don't want."

"I did nothing wrong, why am I running away?"

"Besides, I am Mu Qiufeng's daughter. If I were to run away like this, wouldn't that be an insult to his reputation?"

Chen Nian laughed loudly: "Alright, that's stylish. I'll play along with you to the end."

Mu Yun: "If the Four Holy Lands are not convinced, if the world is not convinced, then we will fight them until they submit!"

Bo Yi: "Gentlemen, your spirits are high; we deserve another drink!"

.......

The next two days were especially peaceful.

The four of them ate, chatted, and played chess, having a wonderful time.

But the good times didn't last long.

"Brother Chen, I went to the market to buy vegetables today and heard some bad news."

"What?"

"They say... a small sect called Qingxuan Sect had several disciples captured, and they hope you can go to Taixuan Holy Land to visit them."

"....."

Suddenly, the atmosphere at the dinner table became heavy and oppressive.

Chen Nian didn't speak, and the others also stopped what they were doing.

"Brother Chen, don't worry. It's probably just a rumor from the streets, meant to scare you into going back."

"That's right, just like how the Heavenly Demon Palace plotted against Mu Qiufeng, they also set up an inescapable trap! Although he managed to break through, he was still poisoned, and his death is only a matter of time."

"If you go back, you'll surely never return..."

Several people offered their advice, and Chen Nian naturally understood their reasoning.

But the first people he met when he first came into this world were the group of people from the lower rungs of the martial arts world, the Qingxuan Sect.

They weren't as high-class as the Xuan Holy Land, and they even fought over meals, yet they accompanied him all the way until he met Mu Yun.

If they are really arrested, Chen Nian will not stand idly by.

Snapped!

He put down his chopsticks and stood up.

"I'll go back to Qingxuan Sect and see if it's true."

"Old time..."

Mu Qingxuan stood up, her face showing worry.

"Don't worry, I can come and go freely in the Tai Xuan Holy Land. They can't do anything to me, and I'll be back soon."

After saying this, Chen Nian hurriedly left Luoyang.

.......

Tai Xuan Sacred Land.

These past few days, Jinshu has been struggling with her inner turmoil.

In the end, she decided to go down the mountain.

"I came down the mountain this time because I was worried about Junior Sister Qingxuan, so I came to see her, not to see you."

She had already rehearsed her lines and decided that when she met Boyi, she would say this to him.

"She's gone, follow her!"

However, several undercover agents were keeping an eye on Jinshu.

As soon as he noticed her making a move, he immediately gave chase.

The entire Kyushu is now searching for Mu Yun and his companions, but they have yet to be caught, so someone has long been eyeing Jin Shu.

She definitely wouldn't tell if I pressed her directly, so I secretly sent someone to follow her, hoping she would lead the way.

Several disciples followed along and eventually arrived at a city with Jinshu.

Pingtian City.

Unexpectedly, the streets were bustling with people that day, and the group could only barely keep up with Jinshu.

After Jinshu turned into a clothing shop, the group waited outside, but she didn't come out for a long time.

"What's going on... why hasn't she come out yet?"

"She came all the way down the mountain, could it be just to browse this clothing store?"

"Go in and search!"

The group immediately rushed into the changing room to search, but they couldn't find Jinshu. Instead, they were yelled at as perverts by the girls who were changing clothes.

"Lost them... How is that possible?"

It turned out that after Jinshu went in, she immediately changed her clothes and disguised herself before slipping away through the back door.

She deliberately wandered around here to shake off her pursuers before heading to Luoyang.

"This is Luoyang..."

As Jinshu entered Luoyang, gazing at the bustling streets, she was suddenly filled with endless emotions.

She had fantasized countless times about coming here to find her senior brother, but she had never actually done so.

I remember looking for Boyi several years ago when he was about to go down the mountain.

"Senior brother, I'll accompany you down the mountain. I'll give up being a disciple of this sacred land!"

"From now on, wherever you go, I'll go. We can find a bamboo forest to live in seclusion and live a carefree life, hehe~~"

At that time, I had boundless and wonderful dreams for the future.

They believe that as long as they are with the person they like, they can go anywhere.

He agreed, saying we'd set off tomorrow and go down the mountain together.

But by the next day, he was already gone, leaving cleanly and decisively without even letting anyone inform him.

He left without saying goodbye.

From that day on, Jinshu vowed that she would never take the initiative to go down the mountain to see him again in this lifetime!

Even today... she still came.

She combed her hair, applied rouge, and mustered her courage to go to the thatched cottage on the outskirts of the city.

Looking from afar.

The man, dressed in simple clothes and looking like a scholar, was looking at a chess manual in the courtyard, placing pieces on the chessboard as he read, looking extremely serious.

He was so focused, perhaps because he hadn't practiced any spiritual cultivation, that he didn't even notice himself walking into the courtyard.

Bo Yi didn't realize it until he heard footsteps passing by.

"girl?"

"Who are you, young lady? Why did you enter my house without saying a word?"

"Please wait, young lady!"

Bo Yi quickly caught up from behind and stood in front of Jin Shu.

He was stunned for a moment.

He opened his mouth, his Adam's apple bobbed a few times, but he didn't know what to say.

"What, do I need to greet you?" Jinshu asked back.

"No...no need, please go ahead, miss."

Bo Yi stepped aside, but immediately spoke again, "Jin Shu, come here..."

"I've come to visit Qingxuan. Is there a problem?"

"No...no problem."

Hearing the noise, Mu Qingxuan opened the door, her face full of surprise.

"Senior sister, you've finally come down the mountain... Come in quickly!"

"I came down the mountain because I was worried about you; I had no other purpose."

"I know, I know, it has nothing to do with you, Senior Brother. You're just worried about me. Um... By the way, Senior Brother, Senior Sister rarely comes, so you'd better cook something nice for us today!"

"Okay, I'll go to the market to buy groceries right now!"

Bo Yi never expected that he would feel such a surge of emotions at this moment.

He put a lot of thought and effort into today's meal.

"Dinner is served, everyone."

Four people sat around a stone table in the courtyard.

Just like when the four of them were still children, their friendship back then was the purest and irreplaceable.

"Haha, it's been so many years since the four of us sat down to eat together!"

"Yes, if there's any good thing about this, it's that the four of us are reunited."

"Come on, cheers!"

The four men raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp.

"Jinshu, come on, try my cooking." Boyi smiled and picked up a piece of meat and handed it to him.

"Senior brother and sister, you two must make up now that you've met!" Mu Qingxuan said.

Bo Yi nodded: "Yes, it's been so many years, what knot in our hearts can't be untied?"

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm petty?" Jinshu asked irritably.

No, no, no.

"By the way, senior brother, why don't you talk about the dream you both had? I'm curious about what it was all about. Senior sister, you don't know this, but your dreams were exactly the same, just like you actually experienced them!"

Mu Yun said, "Buddhism teaches that people are subject to reincarnation. Perhaps your meeting in this life is not the first time you have met."

"If that's the case, isn't that too much of a coincidence... Out of millions of people in this world, why did we have to run into each other?"

While the group was eating and chatting...

Sudden.

A shout, imbued with profound power, resounded throughout the entire city!

"Mu Yun, Mu Qingxuan!"

"If you don't want to harm innocent people, leave the city immediately and surrender!"

The sound, like a thunderclap, echoed throughout the entire city of Luoyang.

The four of them froze on the spot.

Jinshu's face turned deathly pale: "How did they find this place...? I even went out of my way to shake off the people watching me, how could this be..."

Mu Yun suddenly looked up.

Above them, a crane was circling in the sky.

"It is... the Holy Lord's crane..."

"It can transform into any bird, so it's normal that you can't detect it. It seems that the Holy Lord had already planned to use you as a lure to find us."

"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..." Jinshu was at a loss, clearly feeling extremely guilty.

"Senior sister, it's not your fault. Perhaps we were destined to face this calamity."

The two of them certainly did not want to fight in the city, as too many innocent civilians would die there. The only option now was to leave the city.

But Boyi was the first to stand up.

"None of you go out, hide well, I'm going out to check."

"Senior brother, you!"

"Remember, whatever you do, don't follow me out."

Outside Luoyang, a large number of bewildered civilians and soldiers had gathered, along with many martial arts practitioners who stood on the city walls to watch the spectacle.

Outside, there were powerful figures from the four holy lands, and even several powerful elders!

It is conceivable that they did not come recklessly, but rather prepared sufficient combat power before launching their attack at this moment.

"Powerful figures from the four holy lands are coming to find someone in such a grand manner... What an impressive display!"

"So it seems those two really are hiding in Luoyang?"

"I never imagined that the once mighty and powerful divine son would end up in such a state..."

Just as people were discussing it.

A refined-looking man, resembling a scholar, pushed through the crowd and stepped out.

He faced directly at the disciples of the four holy lands ahead.

"Hello everyone."

He bowed in greeting.

"Who are you?"

"I am... Bo Yi, an outer disciple of the Zeng Taixuan Holy Land."

"Early Profound Realm? A disciple of the Tai Xuan Holy Land? Haha!"

"The Tai Xuan Holy Land actually has such a weak disciple? Are you here to make us laugh?"

"I know this person."

At this moment, a disciple spoke up: "This person was admitted to the outer sect at the same time as Mu Yun and Mu Qingxuan, so they were classmates. Later, his talent fell behind and he did not make any progress, so he was expelled from the Holy Land."

"Moreover... Senior Sister Jinshu seems to have always been thinking about him. No wonder she came to a place like this. It seems that Mu Yun and the other two are hiding here."

"Turns out he's just a worthless piece of trash, what else is there to say?"

"You, make them come out!"

Although the other party's words were full of disdain, Bo Yi remained gentle.

"Gentlemen, Jinshu is indeed here with me, but she is here to visit me and has nothing to do with anyone else. As for Mu Yun and the other person you mentioned, I have no idea where they are."

The voice just fell.

A burst of profound energy suddenly emerged.

It was like a slap across Bo Yi's face, knocking him to the ground on the spot!

Such a simple attack with profound energy had already caused him to bleed from his mouth and nose.

"Who do you think you are that Senior Sister Jinshu would make a special trip to visit you?"

"We told you to go in and call for help, not to gossip here, understand?"

Bo Yi slowly got up, wiped the blood and mud from the corner of his mouth, and said solemnly, "What I said is all true. I have never seen those two people."

Snapped!

Another long whip of profound energy was lashed out.

With a thud, Bo Yi was knocked to the ground again, leaving a shocking bloodstain on his body.

"We're in a hurry, we don't have time to waste on your lowlife. They're wanted by the Kyushu authorities, we're arresting wanted criminals, understand?"

"I truly do not know..."

Bo Yi used his hands to push himself up again, but he was kicked away halfway up the ground.

"You're asking for it, beat him up!"

A group of people surrounded him and began to trample on Boyi's back.

Blood and dirt mingled together, and countless bones in his back were broken.

Just then, a beam of green light shot out, blasting all of them away.

Jinshu rushed forward and picked Boyi up from the ground, almost sobbing uncontrollably, "Senior brother... Senior brother, what's wrong... Are you stupid...?"

"You...are worried about me..."

"Idiot, how could I not worry about you!"

Although Bo Yi had been beaten beyond recognition, he still managed to force a smile.

For some reason, he felt incredibly happy at that moment.

Mu Yun and his sister stood to one side.

"I've finally made up my mind to let go."

"We have many powerful experts here. If we resist again, it will only increase casualties, especially for this lowly trash."

"Come with us. The Holy Lords have already met and are waiting for you."

Mu Yun and Mu Qingxuan exchanged a glance, knowing that they probably couldn't fight anymore.

There are so many commoners in Luoyang, and also my senior brother...

For their sake, we cannot start a fight here.

"take away!"

Mu Yun, Mu Qingxuan, and Jin Shu were all taken away.

"Senior brother, senior brother!"

Jinshu wept bitterly.

Bo Yi could only lie on the ground, his pupils bloodshot, watching helplessly as she was taken away.
