Chapter 117 Goodbye Zhu Zhuqing, My Two Best Sisters Want to See You (Bonus Chapter, Please Vote)

"When did these three teams become so close?"

Five Elements Academy Villa Area.

Looking at the dozens of people walking towards them in a large group.

Shuiyue'er looked bewildered.

"The Divine Wind's Laughing Sky, the Elephant Armor's Huyanli, the Blazing Fire Dance..."

Xuewu, with her long, straight black hair, swept her gaze across the crowd.

Finally, the focus shifted to the white-shirted boy in the center.

"Who is this person?"

"Sword Wine".

Shui Bing'er answered calmly.

Upon arriving in Tiandou City yesterday, she went to the Tiandou Royal Academy to learn about the exchange program between the four academies.

She already knew.

A genius named Jianjiu defeated Feng Xiaotian with a single sword strike.

She still knows.

Kenju is not a member of the Royal Fighting Team.

but……

She doesn't believe it.

"This sword-infused wine must be the Royal Fighting Team's hidden trump card."

Shui Bing'er's eyes flickered slightly.

He turned and walked back to his residence.

Shuiyue'er and Xuewu whispered "sword and wine" and quickly followed.

"Brother Zhexian, that's the Tianshui Academy team."

Feng Xiaotian said solemnly:

"Tianshui Academy is located in the North, and we know very little about it."

"I only heard that Shui Bing'er was appointed as the team captain as soon as she entered the school."

"Their strength must be considerable."

Huo Wushuang and Hu Yanli nodded in agreement.

They had all heard of Shui Bing'er.

Li Zhexian had a smile on his lips.

The owner of the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul is naturally not weak.

but.

This has nothing to do with him.

He doesn't participate in the Soul Master Competition.

"By the way, Brother Immortal..."

Huo Wushuang suddenly asked:
"Where is Yu Tianheng?"

"Where are the Royal Fighting Team members?"

"Although the Royal Fighting Team has made it straight to the finals, they still have to show up at the opening ceremony."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhexian frowned.

When he left the Blue Lightning family, Dugu Yan said he still needed to train for another month.

The deadline has now passed.

Not only were the seven members of the Royal Fighting Team nowhere to be found.

Even Yu Tianxin, the captain of the Thunder team, did not show up.

"With Senior Thunder Douluo here, there should be no major problems."

Li Zhexian thought to himself, and said:
"Training isn't over yet, but I'll definitely be able to catch up before the competition starts."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaotian and the others exclaimed, "The Royal Fighting Team has become even stronger."

The next half day.

Each team is busy with registration, rehearsals, and other matters.

Li Bai, the banished immortal, remained silent with the wind, thus becoming a recluse.

Having eaten at restaurants for several days, their stomachs were already rumbling and they felt unwell. So they casually found a stall to have dinner and then went their separate ways.

Li Zhexian returned to the quiet courtyard.

I had just rested on the recliner for a moment when I heard a very soft knock on the door.

dong dong——

He looked up at the door with a smile on his face.

Open the door.

A refreshing fragrance wafted over.

Zhu Zhuqing stood gracefully outside the door.

She wore a light purple halter-neck dress, revealing her fair and delicate collarbones.

Her delicate earlobes were adorned with colorful gemstones, and her long, jet-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, making her pretty face even more captivating.

She stood tall and graceful.

Like a newly blossoming lavender.

"Li...Li the Immortal!"

Zhu Zhuqing subconsciously raised her hand to brush a strand of hair behind her ear, trying to hide her shyness.

But she still couldn't help but lower her eyes.

"Sister Zhuqing."

Li Zhexian greeted her with a warm smile as he entered the courtyard.

Zhu Zhuqing moved lightly and gracefully into the small courtyard she had visited before.

Familiar scenery.

It is exactly the same as what I often dream about.

She sat down under the plum tree, facing Li Zhexian.

We were apart for six months.

The two, upon their reunion, both felt a touch of awkwardness and embarrassment.

The courtyard was quiet.

The only sound was the wine being poured into the cup.

Plum petals drifted down slowly, weaving a plum rain between the two.

Zhu Zhuqing felt her cheeks getting hotter and hotter.

Those words that have been swirling in my heart a thousand times.

At this moment, it turned into a mess.

I can't remember a single word. "Li Zhexian..."

"Sister Zhuqing..."

The two of them called each other's names softly at the same time.

The sounds gently collided among the fluttering plum petals.

They were stunned at the same time.

Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks flushed with a rosy glow.

She lowered her head even further.

Her fingers gripped the hem of her skirt tightly.

Li Zhexian gently pushed his cup, and the wine, crackling with lightning, shimmered in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

"Sister Zhuqing, have a taste."

"The newly acquired fine wine is called Leitan Nectar."

"Okay... okay."

Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly picked up the wine glass and took a small sip.

A strange aroma of alcohol, mixed with a tingling sensation, instantly spread throughout the body.

“Delicious!”

Her beautiful eyes opened slightly, and a captivating blush spread across her cheeks.

"Li Zhexian, you always have such magical wines!"

Li Zhexian gazed at her slightly tipsy, delicate face.

"When did Sister Zhuqing arrive at Tiandou?"

How have you been these past six months?

Such a casual greeting is the proper way to start a long-awaited reunion.

Perhaps slightly tipsy, Zhu Zhuqing relaxed and gave Li Zhexian a reproachful look.

"You're still saying that!"

"Why don't you come to me?"

Zhu Zhuqing's tone carried a hint of resentment.

"Could it be..."

"Do I, the girl, always have to come to you first?"

A hint of helplessness flashed across Li Zhexian's face.

"Sister Zhuqing, I really don't know when you will arrive in Tiandou City."

"These days I have been guarding the city gate, both waiting for old friends and hoping for your arrival."

"only……"

His eyes were clear as he said:
"I didn't wait for you."

Zhu Zhuqing's heart softened.

How could she bear to blame Li Zhexian?

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding."

"Actually, I arrived two days ago, but..."

"Some things have been delayed, so I'm only coming to see you today."

She was too embarrassed to reveal the troubles that had been weighing on her mind for the past two days. She bit her red lips lightly, and mustered her courage to say:

"Li Zhexian..."

"I didn't get to explore Tiandou City properly last time I came here."

"Could you take me for a nighttime tour of Tian Dou, and also..."

Zhu Zhuqing's voice gradually lowered.

"My two best friends want to meet you."

Li Zhexian remained calm and replied with a smile:

"of course."

He knew who Zhu Zhuqing's sisters were.

but.

Just as Ning Fengzhi said that day.

If he were to see Ning Rongrong again, he would treat her as a complete stranger.

They won't ridicule you.

They won't mock you.

There will be no ripples whatsoever.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flashed with joy. Seeing Li Zhexian get up, she quickly lifted her skirt and followed beside him.

The moon shines brightly tonight.

A layer of salt frost covered the ground.

Li Zhexian and Zhu Zhuqing strolled along the long street, happily sharing their experiences and observations from their six-month separation.

At this time.

Zhu Zhuqing's gaze inadvertently fell on the shadows of the two people standing side by side.

Although they looked close, there was still a thin line separating them.

She blinked.

With a hint of caution, yet also brimming with joy and excitement.

She quietly moved a little closer to Li Zhexian... and a little closer still...

Until their shoulders lightly touched.

The shadows on the ground also blended together intimately.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyebrows and eyes were curved.

A sweet smile bloomed on her pretty face.

"Sister Zhuqing, what are you laughing at?"

Li Zhexian, carrying the newly purchased lantern, turned his head and asked.

Zhu Zhuqing quickly shook her head, her cheeks flushed.

This secret joy.

She just wanted to keep it to herself.

Jinxi Bridge.

Xiao Wu twirled the end of her braid and looked around.

Ning Rongrong kicked a pebble into the water, startling several koi carp into the depths of the duckweed.

"Where are Zhu Qing and her swordsman?"

"Why aren't they here yet!"
