Yue Buqun: My Mount Hua has been time-traveled.

On the way back, I wasn't as eager as I was on the way there.

The sandboat was much smoother than the horse-drawn carriage.

Several people sat inside.

They all bore the weariness of a major battle...

The battle with Shi Guanyin did not actually last long; from beginning to end, it was only about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before she was killed by Xue Xiaoren.

But in fact, during this period, almost everyone teetered on the brink of life and death no less than ten times.

The adrenaline rush and intense concentration take a toll on energy that cannot be replenished in just a day or two.

Although Hua Zhenzhen's swordsmanship was high, her skill level was the lowest, and she was also the one who couldn't withstand fatigue the most.

At first, he was somewhat wary of outsiders and maintained a formal, upright posture.

Gradually, the little head tilted up and down, slowly resting on Yue Buqun's shoulder, then lowering further and further until finally resting on his thigh.

His breathing sounded slightly heavier than usual, like that of a kitten.

He was clearly fast asleep.

Yue Buqun, however, did not rest.

The battle with Shi Guanyin was extremely dangerous.

In the face of life-or-death crisis, the human body's potential is almost pushed to its limit, and all the internal energy is squeezed out.

Now, when the true qi circulates again, it is much smoother than before, as if all the meridians and acupoints have been lubricated and the previous dryness and stagnation have been smoothed away.

Even his skill level has greatly improved compared to before.

At the very least, after this life-or-death battle, Yue Buqun's swordsmanship has greatly improved. He can now use the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng and the Five Mountains Sword Technique with ease.

If we were to face Wuhua again...

Even with his wedding dress skill as a foundation, Yue Buqun felt that in a contest of true strength, he might still have a good chance of winning.

Indeed, the battle between life and death is far more powerful than any miraculous elixir.

Therefore, Yue Buqun was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity.

Even when exhausted, she still habitually activated the Purple Cloud Divine Skill.

A purple aura surged around him.

This strange phenomenon attracted Chu Liuxiang's attention from time to time, who was amazed by Yue Buqun's diligence.

Yue Buqun occasionally met Chu Liuxiang's gaze, smiling politely on his face, but inwardly he was already showing some wariness.

Recalling their conversation at the entrance to the Mirror Palace.

"I can now confirm that Sect Leader Yue did indeed deceive us before. It seems that Gao Yanan was never captured by Shi Guanyin at all?"

"A flaw? The biggest flaw is probably your care for your disciples, Sect Leader Yue. I have seen your care and affection for this Miss Zhenzhen along the way. Even if Gao Yanan is not as good as Miss Zhenzhen, given Sect Leader Yue's protectiveness, if she really falls into Shi Guanyin's hands, you will probably rush to kill Shi Guanyin even faster than Xiao Hu."

"But what about you? What were you doing at the time? You were chatting with Master Tieshan and Mr. Shuai. Although you said that they had come from afar to help and you couldn't leave them behind, although my acquaintance with Master Yue is not deep, I feel that Master Yue is not the kind of person who cares too much about worldly etiquette. Especially when I found out that Shi Guanyin's inheritance seemed to have been packaged up, Master Yue is so leisurely."

Yue Buqun was truly astonished.

It can only be said that Chu Liuxiang is indeed worthy of being the protagonist of this world. His attention to detail is so meticulous that he is probably second to none among the many protagonists in the ancient world. In fact, in the story, he can even sense that something is wrong when the wine pot is moved to the slightest position.

Yue Buqun was only a few steps late because he was busy looting the bag, but he immediately rushed over to join them.

Then Chu Liuxiang deduced the truth.

Fortunately, he had already prepared a solution for this matter.

The explanation is that he did not personally witness Gao Yanan falling into Shi Guanyin's hands; it was just that the battle that night was too dangerous, the two sides were separated, and she was never seen again.

But he couldn't find her body, and in the end he could only conclude that she had been taken away by Shi Guanyin.

But even now, with the Huashan Sect facing a life-or-death crisis, Gao Yanan has not shown up.

He was almost certain that Gao Yanan was currently in an extremely dangerous situation.

This last sentence wasn't a lie, after all, according to Yue Buqun's speculation, Gao Yanan should be facing bullying from the Songshan Sect right now, and her situation is probably not much better than his current one.

Perhaps because she knew her best friend Gao Yanan's character too well, she would never have missed the opportunity to fight for her sect in this deadly trap set for Shi Guanyin, unless something unexpected happened to her.

Therefore, although Chu Liuxiang was certain that this Sect Leader Yue was hiding something, he still chose to believe him.

He sighed, "That's fine too. Whatever the accident, it's better than falling into Shi Guanyin's hands. Although Sect Leader Yue used us, I won't dwell on it too much for Gao Yanan's sake. I will also advise Xiao Hu later, at least to put his mind at ease."

There was already a hint of estrangement in their conversation.

Obviously, no one wants to be played like this. Although he was relieved that his friend's situation might not be so bad, he had already secretly made up his mind.

I must stay away from this Sect Leader Yue from now on.

Little did they know that Yue Buqun had the same thought in his mind at that moment.

Chu Liuxiang's observations are so meticulous, he's practically a detective.

He has too many secrets. If you get too close to Chu Liuxiang, it will be very easy for him to see through your secrets.

In fact, Yue Buqun even suspected that if Chu Liuxiang hadn't interpreted the unusual features on him as a sign of panic at having his scheme exposed, he might have been completely different.

Otherwise, he might have discovered that Yue Buqun had made an incredible discovery in the Stone Guanyin's lair, which could be considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

But precisely because of this, it's best to stay as far away from the protagonist of this world as possible in the future. Anyway, if needed, with Yue Buqun's foresight and Chu Liuxiang's meddlesome nature, it would be incredibly easy to use him.

Why bother with personal connections when you can use it directly?

At this moment, although the two were distant, they also shared a tacit understanding and unspoken connection.

Then, the carriage journey was silent.

Having learned that Gao Yanan had only gone missing after being injured, and since she hadn't fallen into Shi Guanyin's hands, she must be recuperating somewhere.

Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan were both relieved and were now sleeping soundly on their backs.

Hua Zhenzhen remained silent the entire way. Although the girl appeared shy, quiet, and delicate, her sleeping posture was actually quite unrestrained. She rolled around on Yue Buqun's lap and finally buried her face in his lower abdomen, shielding him from the glaring desert sun.

Drooling in your sleep?

No wonder this girl aired out her bedding every few days when she was on Mount Hua.

Yue Buqun ignored her and continued to habitually circulate the Zixia Divine Skill.

He had long since developed the Purple Cloud Divine Skill into an instinct, and now he could cultivate it whether he was walking, sitting, or lying down.

When sitting cross-legged with the five points facing the sky, the energy circulation of the exercise is at its highest.

But Yue Buqun no longer needed to concentrate and wait.

If we're talking about women, then this means that the woman's G-spot and sensitive areas are already completely known.

Therefore, you don't need to be too serious or invested to easily satisfy her.

At this moment, Yue Buqun was flirting with Zixia Divine Skill while fantasizing about another hot new beauty.

The Divine Skill of the Wedding Dress!

Especially now, while cultivating the Purple Cloud Divine Skill, he can also savor the many mysteries of the Wedding Dress Divine Skill, which allows him to make the most direct comparison.
