After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

Nascent Soul Realm?

This scene doesn't appear in the game.

She had a vague feeling that this matter was probably... related to her again.

Seeing Shi Yan's reaction, Qin Suhuai quickly comforted her, "Miss..."

"Don't worry, little sister, I will protect you."

Even the way he addressed her had changed; Qin Suhuai felt that he had to take responsibility for the girl in front of him no matter what.

"Hmm~" Shi Yan gently held Qin Suhuai's hand, as if he wanted to put his own hand into Qin Suhuai's hand.

"She's just a Nascent Soul Realm witch. She's definitely not a problem for Sister Su Huai."

Qin Suhuai suddenly felt like she was getting too big for her britches. "Oh, right, little sister..."

After the girl finished speaking, it was her turn.

Shi Yan looked up at Qin Suhuai, waiting for Qin Suhuai to continue.

Qin Suhuai pulled her right hand out of Shi Yan's palm and then gently beckoned.

Shi Yan felt his storage ring suddenly flicker, and a sword token fell into Qin Suhuai's hand.

dong dong——

Shi Yan's heart suddenly raced.

Qin Suhuai looked at Shi Yan and asked, "Was this a gift from my sister's brother?"

"Where is my sister's brother now?"

Qin Suhuai had heard Long Taoyi talk about the events in Nanjun City and knew that the young man had a beautiful younger sister.

The girl in front of me must be Shi Xia.

Shi Yan looked at Qin Suhuai.

Under Qin Suhuai's anxious gaze, she slowly leaned closer, "Sister Suhuai, do you know my name?"

Qin Suhuai held her breath little by little.

She suddenly had a bold, extremely ominous premonition.

Shi Yan leaned close to Qin Suhuai's ear and placed his left hand on Qin Suhuai's shoulder.

"I am Shiyan."

Part 176 The Eldest Sister Can't Hold On Anymore [Second Update, 3K Words]

"I am... Shi Yan?"

Hearing the girl's voice close to his ear, Qin Suhuai's smoky purple eyes widened suddenly.

It feels like you're trying to bully a girl but ended up bullying the wrong target.

Qin Suhuai didn't even notice how close Shi Yan was to her.

Nowadays, girls can kiss their earlobes simply by tilting their heads slightly.

She felt like her mind was completely confused.

The girl he saved... is Shi Yan!?

It was true that he came to Nanjun City because of the sword token that had been transferred, and it was also because of the sword token's aura that he noticed the girl walking aimlessly on the street.

But... Qin Suhuai really never imagined that the girl in front of him, who seemed to be resting her chin on his shoulder, was actually Shi Yan.

how come?

Didn't the junior apprentice say... that Shi Yan is a handsome young man?

Her body was almost frozen in place as Qin Suhuai slowly turned her neck.

Upon closer inspection, the girl's neck was slender and snow-white, with soft lines that flowed into her robes.

I have confirmed it myself.

The person I carried back to the hotel was definitely a girl.

"Shiyan?" Qin Suhuai's smoky purple eyes showed a hint of panic. "My sister must be joking."

"Is your younger sister Xiaxia?"

"I heard it from my junior apprentice, who was just a background character..."

Why did I come to Nanjun City?

Was it all just to hunt down a flower-picking witch at the Nascent Soul stage?

how is this possible.

She's just a flower-picking witch at the Nascent Soul stage; there's no need for Qin Suhuai to personally intervene.

Qin Suhuai's main purpose in coming to Nanjun City was to meet Shi Yan.

The junior apprentice told her that he had seen a boy in Nanjun City who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, but had already mastered the "Hidden Sword Technique".

In just one month, he stepped from the Body Tempering Realm to the Qi Refining Realm.

His body radiated a fierce sword intent, as if he could tear apart even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Within the "Sword Tomb," he possessed the cultivation of the Qi Refining Realm and unleashed a secret technique rarely known even within the Azure Lotus Sword Sect—

"Slay Loulan".

In the words of the junior apprentice, that boy's sword intent and sword spirit were in no way inferior to his own, and his talent in swordsmanship was comparable to his own.

"but..."

"but..."

Qin Suhuai looked at Shi Yan.

Shi Yan gripped Qin Suhuai's left hand tightly with his right.

He leaned back slightly, his left hand still resting on Qin Suhuai's shoulder.

The two people were very close, almost face to face.

With their keen senses, both of them could easily detect each other's breathing.

Shi Yan smiled at Qin Suhuai.

Qin Suhuai stiffened slightly.

Actually... she has a little secret.

Qin Suhuai was left-handed, and she was skilled at wielding a sword with her left hand.

With her left hand being held by the girl like that, she even felt a thin layer of sweat seeping from her palm.

"Master... Yan?" Qin Suhuai looked at the girl in front of him seriously.

Shi Yan suppressed a laugh.

For the first time, the sword intent that Shi Yan had been restraining with the "Hidden Sword Technique" was unleashed with considerable recklessness.

It depicts Qin Suhuai's body.

That rugged... sharp... sword intent was completely different from Qin Suhuai's sword heart and sword intent, yet it was definitely at the same level. It brushed against the girl's hair, blowing up a strand of purple hair like a cloud.

Confirmed—

She is Shi Yan.

Qin Suhuai seemed to suddenly understand the meaning behind the girl's sly expression.

She wasn't lusting after her own body.

Rather, she had already tasted her own sword intent; she... perhaps had already realized that she was Qin Suhuai.

Sword intent cannot be faked.

In this whole world, there are very few people who can fight me with their swords.

If we disregard cultivation level, perhaps the girl in front of him is the only one.

Contrary to her seemingly frail appearance, the girl possessed a fierce and solitary sword intent. For Qin Suhuai, a sword fanatic, this contrast was rather endearing.

Qin Suhuai felt her sword heart trembling.

My initial feeling was indeed correct.

There's a reason why I find her so adorable.

I felt that she and I were a match made in heaven, destined to be together through thick and thin.

"But...but why her of all people!"

Qin Suhuai felt like she was about to collapse.

His own sword trembled, and his blood boiled.

Finally, I felt that the way of the sword was not lonely, and I had someone I wanted to be with.

But how could it be her!

If it were anyone else, even if Shi Yan was just a girl's fabricated "older brother," Qin Suhuai would immediately grab his sword and say, "I've long admired your name, Master. How about we have a friendly spar?"

But looking at the 'delicate' girl in front of him, Qin Suhuai really couldn't bring himself to lift his sword.

That desire surged forth, and his hand was already on the sword. But... he had wronged her, done something he didn't deserve, and in the end, he could only suppress Ji Jian's desire.

This left Qin Suhuai unable to exert her strength or vent her desires, making her wish she could swing her sword at the air a few times.

It's so painful.

But... Shi Yan is still teasing him.

The sword intent that the girl slowly exhaled made Qin Suhuai's heart itch.

"Master said..." The voice was pitiful and pleading.

Aside from her previous hesitant and childlike demeanor, this was the first time Shi Yan had ever seen Qin Suhuai display such a pitiful and pleading expression.
