"Of course I'm not joking. Xue'er has already begun to develop intelligence, and we might need her help in many areas in the future."

As they talked, Bai Yuan unknowingly sat down next to Ning Yan and petted the cat with her.

Ningyan didn't notice this at first because her attention was on Xue'er after he spoke.

Before she could react, Bai Yuan was already beside her, and the two of them were petting the cat together, their fingers inevitably touching.

Ningyan sensed that the atmosphere had suddenly become a little strange, so she immediately withdrew her hand and quietly moved a little to the side.

Seeing her reaction, Bai Yuan smiled helplessly.

At this moment, he suddenly became curious about how much information he could see about Ningyan, so he silently used his ability to recognize people on her.

[Character]: Ningyan

Age: 20

[Relationship]: Intimacy

[Hobbies]: Practicing martial arts and swordsmanship

[Entries]: Sword Awakening (Blue), Concealment of Killing Intent (Blue)

【Sword Awakening】: After escaping the net, she has been freed from the fate of becoming a sword slave, and is therefore blessed. From now on, her sword practice will be divinely aided, and her comprehension and progress will be faster.

[Concealed Killing Intent]: She can control her killing intent with ease, making it difficult for others to detect.

Bai Yuan was somewhat pleased when he saw the message, not expecting that their relationship had already become quite intimate.

However, in their daily interactions, they weren't exactly very close.

Indeed, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea!

In addition, Bai Yuan also noticed that Ningyan's swordsmanship talent had actually improved after she broke free from the Luo Wang, which was also a gratifying thing.

Ningyan felt a little annoyed when she saw Bai Yuan staring at her for a long time, and rolled her eyes at him.

Bai Yuan smiled when he saw this, knowing that she must be feeling shy, so he looked away and stopped staring at her.

After sitting under the tree with Ningyan for a while and petting the cat, Bai Yuan got up and went into the room.

Not long after, Ningyan saw him come out with the peach blossom sword, knowing that he was planning to practice his swordsmanship for a while.

During her time at Xiaoshengxianzhuang, she often sat to the side watching Bai Yuan practice his sword in the courtyard.

But then Bai Yuan walked up to her.

"Practicing swordsmanship alone is too boring, come and keep me company!"

Bai Yuan smiled and handed the Peach Blossom Sword to Ning Yan.

"Me?" Ningyan was slightly taken aback, and hesitated.

Seeing her like this, Bai Yuan didn't give her a chance to refuse. He reached out, grabbed her wrist, pulled her up, and then handed her the Peach Blossom Sword.

He simply picked up a twig and made do with it.

Ningyan felt somewhat helpless and had no choice but to go along with his wishes.

Holding the peach blossom sword, she felt a unique sensation; this was the first time she had held a sword since escaping the Net.

Xue'er obediently walked to the side, making room for the two of them.

It is like a quiet lion.

It sat on the ground, its cat-like eyes fixed on the two figures without moving.

Bai Yuan used a tree branch as a sword, and together with Ning Yan, they slowly danced with the sword under the tree.

At first, the two of them had different rhythms when wielding swords, lacked tacit understanding, and even affected each other's rhythm. Xue'er couldn't bear to watch anymore.

Fortunately, both of them were trying to match each other's rhythm, and their movements soon became more and more synchronized.

The peach blossom sword gently touched the tree branch, and Ningyan and Baiyuan's eyes met. They could see their own reflections in each other's eyes and couldn't help but smile at each other.

After practicing their swordsmanship, both of them were slightly sweaty and sat down together under a tree to rest.

At this moment, Ningyan still had a faint smile on her lips. She could feel the changes in herself when she used the sword. Her sword was very different from before, and this change was brought to her by Bai Yuan.

Bai Yuan smiled and suddenly reached out to grasp her hand that was holding the peach blossom sword.

Ningyan was slightly taken aback, her eyes darting around as she stared straight ahead, seemingly oblivious to what was happening. She didn't pull her hand away like she had when petting the cat before.

"Let's practice swordsmanship together from now on!"

Feeling the breath on her ear, Ningyan softly replied, "Okay!"

The sound was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, but Bai Yuan heard it very clearly.

Time flies, and the next morning arrives.

At the entrance of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, Lu Zhonglian and Xun Kuang personally came to see them off.

Wuming did not come because he suddenly entered a state of seclusion.

When Bai Yuan appeared with Ning Yan and Xue'er, everyone's attention was drawn to Xue'er, who was perched on Bai Yuan's shoulder.

Xun Kuang had heard Han Fei mention yesterday that Bai Yuan had spent twenty gold coins to buy a cat, and now it seemed that this cat was indeed quite extraordinary.

Xun Kuang and Lu Zhonglian were no ordinary people; they could tell at a glance that the cat's eyes contained an extremely rare spirituality.

Twenty gold coins is really not expensive for a Taoist disciple like Bai Yuan.

When Ji Mo Huaxue saw Xue'er's appearance, her eyes lit up slightly. She took a liking to the little one at first glance.

While they were sizing up Xue'er, Bai Yuan also looked at Han Fei and the other two. He noticed that the black aura seemed to have completely disappeared after he saw it and had not reappeared, which puzzled him.

However, he didn't care much. Anyway, once he arrived in Jimo City, everything would be clear.

Since this was just a banquet to attend, and the trip would only last a few days, Bai Yuan and the others didn't bring much with them.

Han Fei carried a small bundle, while Bai Yuan simply carried a peach blossom sword and a scroll hidden in his sleeve.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xun Kuang gave Han Fei a few words of advice, and then said to Ji Moyun and the others, "It's getting late, so you should set off as soon as possible and arrive in Ji Mo City before dark."

Ji Mo Yun and Ji Mo Hua Xue bowed to Xun Kuang and said, "Take care, Master!"

The group boarded the carriage, and the driver drove it towards the city gate.

Although there were five people in the carriage, it did not feel crowded.

There was a small table inside the carriage, but they hadn't prepared any snacks beforehand.

After all, the journey is not far, and they should be able to arrive in Jimo City before sunset tonight.

Bai Yuan placed Xue'er on the table, asked Ningyan to take out the food prepared last night, and began to feed it.

The system also rewarded him with 1 point of Spirit Mastery experience and a fragment.

At this stage, it's better than nothing for him.

Seeing Xue'er's obedient appearance, Han Fei wanted to follow Bai Yuan's example and reach out to touch her to see how she felt.

He tentatively asked Bai Yuan, "Uncle-Master, may I touch it?"

Upon hearing this, Xue'er immediately turned to look at him, and then raised a voice in protest towards Bai Yuan.

For some reason, everyone in the carriage felt that they understood what Xue'er had just said.

Did it just reject me?

Han Fei scratched his head and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Then everyone saw that Xue'er actually nodded.

Han Fei was immediately embarrassed; he had actually been rejected by a cat.

The interaction between the person and the cat immediately made everyone laugh, and the atmosphere in the carriage became lively.

Ji Moyun and Ji Mohuaxue were even more astonished by Xue'er's intelligence.

Chapter 62 Unexpectedly, he's a sword fanatic.

Bai Yuan stroked the cat and shrugged at Han Fei, knowing why Xue'er had rejected him.

"Xue'er is very smart. The reason it doesn't want you to touch it is probably because it remembered when you tried to persuade me yesterday, so it has a grudge against you!"

Hearing his words, Han Fei was a little dumbfounded. He had only given a word of advice yesterday, and hadn't he also said that the two of them were destined to be together?

Why is this kitten so vengeful?

Unlike Han Fei's distress, Ji Moyun and Ji Mohuaxue were unaware of what Bai Yuan had just said, so they showed a hint of curiosity on their faces.

Bai Yuan noticed this and told them about his trip to Qizhen Pavilion the day before.

After hearing the story, Ji Moyun and Ji Mohuaxue couldn't help but laugh out loud, exclaiming, "This fate is truly wonderful!"

If it were them, they definitely wouldn't be willing to spend that money.

However, this does not affect their current expression of affection for Cher.

Especially Ji Mo Huaxue, seeing how well-behaved Xue'er was in Ningyan's hands, revealed a hint of envy in her eyes.

After all, who wouldn't want to own such an obedient, adorable pet that can understand human speech?

Bai Yuan also noticed Ji Mo Huaxue's behavior, so he smiled and asked, "Miss Ji Mo, would you like to touch it?"

"Is that okay?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Mo Hua Xue looked at Xue Er with a slight gleam in her eyes.

"Meow~"

Xue'er called softly, then slowly walked up to Ji Mo Hua Xue, tilted her head, and looked at her with her beautiful heterochromatic cat eyes, clearly agreeing to let her touch her.

Ji Mo Hua Xue glanced at Bai Yuan with surprise, and only after seeing him nod slightly did she reach out to touch Xue'er's fur.

"So soft!"

She let out a sigh, and Xue'er gently rubbed her palm at that moment, a feeling that she found irresistible.

Han Fei felt a deep pang of heartache upon witnessing this scene.

Because of Xue'er, everyone felt much happier on this trip.

Because of the interaction just now, the people in the car quickly became familiar with each other, and the atmosphere was no longer as dull as it was at the beginning, quickly closing the distance between them.
