The Ballad of Youth: Inheriting Daoji, Li Hanyi, the Escapee from Marriage

"Hiss! That won't do! Xiao Se, you can't betray me! I consider you my best brother!"

Lei Wujie panicked. Seeing Xiao Se turn to leave, he quickly grabbed the other's sleeve.

"Let go! Let...go! Ugh, alright, alright, I won't tell that crazy monk!"

"I don't believe you. If you don't tell me, where are you going?"

Xiao Se struggled for a long time, but how could he compare to Lei Wujie, who was skilled in martial arts and had the strength of an ox?

After trying for a long time without success, Xiao Se had no choice but to give in.

"I really won't tell you. I'm just here to watch the fun. Aren't you curious about the relationship between Li Hanyi and the mad monk?"

"I'm going to watch the game!"

Upon hearing Xiao Se's words, Lei Wujie finally felt relieved, and an expression of interest appeared on his face.

"Watching this...that's great! This is a battle between two unparalleled masters, it's bound to be spectacular!"

"Um... Brother Fan Song, and Xiao Fei Xuan, would you like to come with us to see it?"

Lei Wujie excitedly extended an invitation to Li Fansong.

"No, no, oh dear... Look, my injury hasn't healed yet, and I still need to earn money to buy wine and food for Senior Daoji!"

"You can go!"

Upon hearing Lei Wujie's invitation, Li Fansong shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum, without stopping.

Lei Wujie... clearly believed it.

"Oh... well, that's a real shame. Then Xiao Se and I will go see it!"

Lei Wujie said this, and then followed Xiao Se onto the road leading up the mountain.

…………

A short while later, on the other side, atop the Cangshan Mountain near Snow Moon City, Li Xiuyuan arrived as promised and met Li Hanyi, seeing her stunningly beautiful face beneath the mask!

Bright eyes and white teeth, exquisite features, skin as smooth as jade, flawless!

Coupled with her otherworldly and pure temperament, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she is a fairy descended from heaven!

"You've finally arrived."

"What... are you surprised by my appearance? Did you think I wear a mask because I'm ugly?"

Li Hanyi spoke calmly, as if stating a fact.

"Ahem, the lady's appearance is indeed stunning."

"If I weren't a monk, I'd probably be eyeing the female benefactor."

"As for the claim that wearing a mask makes one ugly, that's completely unfounded."

"I've already become a monk, so what does it matter to me what a female benefactor looks like?"

Li Xiuyuan wasn't lying, because the other person's appearance was indeed stunning.

Including not thinking that wearing a mask makes you ugly, that's even more true!

He's read the original novel, watched the TV series, and even watched the anime!

Although they are all quite different from the person in front of me, I am very clear that the face under the mask is definitely not ugly!

To be honest, if this were his past life, he wouldn't have encountered such a beautiful woman in reality after ten years of cultivation.

He was way too old for... well, back then he probably wouldn't have dared to ask for her WeChat, he'd even chicken out to talk to her...

"Ha, monks, monks! All you do is talk about being monks, is that it? I'm not meeting Daoji, the monk, today!"

"It is the Li family of Jiangnan, Li Xiuyuan!"

"I'm asking you, do you really not remember anything? Don't you remember things from ten years ago?"

"I thought you ran away from the wedding because you didn't like me, but it turns out you really did become a monk for ten years?"

(I'm directly echoing the beginning and end of the introduction, lol.jpg)

Upon hearing Li Hanyi's words, not only Li Xiuyuan, who was directly opposite him, but also Xiao Se and Lei Wujie, who had just arrived on another mountain to avoid being affected, had enhanced their eyes and ears through martial arts.

At this moment, they clearly saw and heard what Li Hanyi said, and both of them were so shocked that they stood there stunned!

…………

Chapter 80 Li Xiuyuan was stunned! Female benefactor, forced melons are never sweet!

"Huh? What... what does this mean, Xiao Se?"

"Dao... Dao Ji, is the Snow Moon Sword Immortal's fiancé? And he even ran away from the wedding and became a monk?"

"Yes, yes, is that what you mean?"

Lei Wujie was so shocked that he could hardly speak. After stammering for a long time, he finally managed to ask what he wanted to ask!

Not to mention his loud and boisterous personality, even Xiao Se, who was standing to the side, was stunned into silence upon hearing the news, his eyes filled with disbelief!

He hadn't expected that what he'd deduced based on rumors and various observations was actually just a rough calculation.

It actually came true!

Li Xiuyuan and Li Hanyi were actually betrothed since childhood!

Moreover, both parties should have been aware of this matter, and Li Hanyi may not have even refused!

But that crazy monk guy, he actually ran away from his arranged marriage and became a monk instead. What kind of move is that?

You should know that Li Hanyi, the Snow Moon Sword Immortal, is a beauty known to everyone in the martial arts world. It's just that her cold personality and powerful strength make countless suitors hesitate to pursue her!

Now that the other party has agreed to the marriage, it's you, this crazy monk, who's taking the initiative to run away from the wedding. You really deserve to die!

"Lei Wujie, although I know this matter is shocking, why are you more agitated than I expected?"

"Is it because of what you mentioned before about your master?"

Xiao Se also had a lot of inside information about Lei Hong, and he was basically certain of Lei Hong's feelings for Li Hanyi.

He's only saying this now to tease Lei Wujie.

"Huh? Nothing, I didn't say anything! Don't frame me, I don't know anything!"

"I'm simply shocked by this, I just can't believe Daoji would run away from his wedding!"

Lei Wujie covered his mouth with his hands, explaining as he went, while inwardly cursing his master Lei Hong!

Yes, Li Hanyi is already engaged, why are you still so hung up on her?

Of course, although his master Lei Hong never explicitly said so, nor did he specifically ask him to come and find Li Hanyi, it was his own idea to come.

But isn't that the same meaning? Does something have to be explicitly stated for others to understand?

Lei Wujie was quite stupid; there were some things he couldn't react to or understand immediately.

But you can't hide the fact that his master has seen everything he's done over the years.

He knew that his master had those kinds of thoughts, which is why he took it upon himself to come to Snow Moon City to find the Snow Moon Sword Immortal!

Sigh! If only I had known earlier that Xueyue Sword Immortal was already engaged, and judging from the way it is, the engagement wasn't completely dissolved. The fact that she was so fierce to Daoji means that she was angry about his elopement back then, and there's a high probability that she still has feelings for him (Lei Wujie's own thought).

He would never have such a thought as taking Li Hanyi back to Lei Family Fort!

Well, that's why he didn't know that Li Hanyi's true identity was his older sister.

I didn't know that the other person was a generation below my master, otherwise I don't know what I would think!

I certainly wouldn't despise him, because he was, after all, my mentor, and in this world, teachers are important.

But at least when he gets back, he'll reason with his master and make it clear that he won't agree with this!

"Fortunately, the Snow Moon Sword Immortal was powerful enough. I was no match for him, so I didn't have the chance to extend an invitation."

"Otherwise, it would be too awkward, and I wouldn't know how to face Daoji!"

Lei Wujie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, I won't make things difficult for you, you little blockhead. Let's continue watching, but remember to be careful."

"If we get caught, we're all finished!"

Seeing Lei Wujie's embarrassed state, Xiao Se had achieved his goal and stopped asking questions.

Anyway... he already knew all this, didn't he?

"Yes, yes, I'll suppress my aura to the lowest possible level!"

Lei Wujie nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, then turned his gaze back to another mountain peak, the direction in which Li Xiuyuan and Li Hanyi were talking.

…………

"What, still trying to play dumb?"

"Dare to elope, but dare not admit it?"

"Alright, then let me see what skills you've learned in the monastery you've been longing for all these years!"

On the other side, atop Cangshan Mountain.

Seeing that Li Xiuyuan had not responded for a long time, Li Hanyi's face grew even colder, and she slowly drew her famous sword—Iron Horse and Ice River!

With a slight flick of her wrist, a visible chill was sent slamming into the ground, making the already frigid mountaintop even more biting.

"Hey, hey, hey! How could I, a monk, have denied it? No... I mean, how could I deny it?"

"Don't draw your sword so easily, okay? I'm fine, but it would be bad if you hurt these flowers and plants!"

Seeing this, Li Xiuyuan finally realized what was happening and hurriedly waved his hand, saying something along with Li Hanyi.

Ugh! What is all this nonsense?

Just a second ago he said that his fiancée from the Lei Men sect couldn't possibly be Li Hanyi, and he even gave so many examples.

And look what happened! How long has it been? We're about to be proven wrong!

Okay, let's leave it at that whether it's a slap in the face or not.

The important question is, how do we resolve this current situation?
