I meet all the requirements for becoming a god in this world!

Gao Heyun sat in the chair, a dark-colored sword resting under her elbow.

She was still dressed in black, without any makeup.

Her expression was indifferent, as if she remained calm and composed no matter what happened.

However, the moment her gaze fell upon Cheng Laiyun...

He froze completely.

A pair of phoenix eyes, like hooks, were fixed on Cheng Laiyun's face.

They ignored Cheng Laiyun's words.

Cheng Laiyun was about to speak again.

Suddenly, a flower bloomed before my eyes.

Gao Heyun's graceful figure was already in front of him, and without saying a word, she reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"Well……"

Cheng Laiyun blinked.

He watched as Gao Heyun's fair hand rested on his wrist.

Feeling the soft warmth and coolness between the other person's fingers...

Sunlight streamed in through the window, illuminating half of Gao Heyun's face.

It reflected her long, thick, and upturned eyelashes.

It's a bit hazy.

Very beautiful.

Looking at Gao Heyun's serious face.

For some reason, Cheng Laiyun was speechless for a moment.

In a daze.

Gao Heyun looked up, her eyes fixed on Cheng Laiyun's eyes.

Eyes facing each other.

Close at hand.

Her eyes were extremely sharp, as if they could see through all the hypocrisy in the world.

Gao Heyun suppressed all the disbelief in her heart.

Staring at Cheng Laiyun, he said, word by word:

"Is it... ready to be sold?"

As she said this, a sense of absurdity even arose in her mind.

Didn't the letter just say that he only passed the physical test?

The last time I saw him in this room, he was just an apprentice who couldn't even get enough to eat and was constantly bullied by lowly servants.

And now, it has only been six days since the two last met!

For a moment, Gao Heyun didn't know how to start the conversation.

She had never encountered anything like this before.

Ok……

Seeing Gao Heyun's loss of composure.

A faint smile appeared on Cheng Laiyun's face, and he nodded modestly:

"Just lucky."

However, as he spoke, he subconsciously tried to pull his arm out of Gao Heyun's grasp.

But Gao Heyun's skill level was too high. What seemed like a light touch on his wrist was difficult to break free from, no matter how hard he tried...

Sure enough, after his few small actions...

Gao Heyun also noticed the awkwardness in the distance between the two.

With a tense expression, she casually lowered Cheng Laiyun's hand, then calmly put her hands behind her back and asked with a serious tone:

"Are you settling in well at the Xu Family Cloth Shop Martial Arts Academy?"

It sounded like they were making small talk after an awkward silence.

But who exactly is Cheng Laiyun?

In my past life, I was a member of a martial arts sect, and my job was to deal with different kinds of people.

He vaguely sensed a hint of... a desire to salvage the situation in Gao Heyun's voice.

Tsk tsk.

Is it because they see how talented I am and regret rejecting them last time?

Cheng Laiyun said solemnly, "The young lady has treated me well."

"Whether I'm used to it or not, I, Cheng, will certainly not let Miss down."

Creating a persona is a good habit, no matter who you're in front of.

Gao Heyun's red lips parted slightly.

Upon seeing Cheng Laiyun's resolute face, she sighed slightly.

She turned away indifferently, tucked the dark-colored sword into her bosom, crossed her arms, and looked out the window:

"You've only just entered the gate, and you're already accusing me of harming you?"

"What makes you say that?"

The voice was cold and clear, indicating that the person had regained their composure.

Cheng Laiyun stared intently at Gao Heyun's retreating figure and uttered four words:

"I've been exposed."

Ok?

Gao Heyun's fingers, gripping the precious sword, suddenly paused. She abruptly turned to Cheng Laiyun, her gaze sharp:

"What do you mean?"

Cheng Laiyun remained calm and composed, recounting the details of the attack without changing his expression.

However, he deliberately concealed the fact that he had awakened supernatural powers and killed the bald man.

Instead, it was said that Qi Dazhuang desperately held off the bald man, allowing him to escape and hide for a night.

When I returned, I found Qi Dazhuang barely breathing, but Ling Mi was perfectly fine.

"This proves that I am their target."

Cheng Laiyun looked directly into Gao Heyun's eyes and bowed in a respectful but firm voice:

"May I ask, Lord Gao, have you spoken to anyone about what happened here that day?"

From the moment he opened his mouth until he finished speaking and asked her a question, Gao Heyun's brows never relaxed.

If she is digesting something, then...

After a long pause, she looked up at Cheng Laiyun and said:

"According to you, that bald man is at least a martial artist of the highest rank."

"He didn't catch up with you?"

Since Cheng Laiyun dared to come, it means he had already anticipated all the circumstances.

He nodded calmly, his voice carrying a hint of relief at surviving a close call:

"After passing the body-strengthening test, I immediately began to guide my breath into my body."

"Fortunately, he had good talent and successfully guided his breath that very night."

"On the day the danger arrived, exactly three days later, I broke through to the next level in the face of battle."

"That's why I didn't die at that bald guy's hands."

Gao Heyun squinted at Cheng Laiyun: "Is that so?"

Cheng Laiyun looked puzzled and blinked at Gao Heyun:

Why would I lie to you?

hmm~

Gao Heyun pondered for a while.

Considering that this young man possessed supernatural powers, it wouldn't be surprising if he could use those powers to negotiate with those people and escape. So he believed what the young man said.

After a long silence, she shook her head at Cheng Laiyun:

"I have never mentioned you to anyone."

Not her?

Cheng Laiyun fell silent.

He lowered his head, his eyebrows furrowed into a deep frown.

He knew that Gao Heyun had no reason to lie to him.

Could it be the young lady?

That's even more impossible...

But that doesn't make sense.

It couldn't have been exposed out of thin air, could it?

……

A silence fell over the room.

Cheng Laiyun and Gao Heyun were both deep in thought.

Just as Cheng Laiyun was thinking about how to squeeze some benefits out of Gao Heyun.

But then Gao Heyun reached into her bosom and took out a palm-sized token, which she handed over.

"This is a letter from my Regent."

"If you encounter any danger in the future, you can send me a message through this order."

"I will get there as soon as possible."

Oh?

Cheng Laiyun was somewhat surprised, but he immediately took the flying letter into his hand without hesitation.

Gao Heyun... has started to value me too!

This is a very good sign.

"How do I use this?"

After acquiring the "Flying Letter Order," Cheng Laiyun held it in his hand and played with it.

The token was neither gold nor wood, but it was not heavy.

I don't know what materials it's made of.

"Pour your breath into it. If the environment is convenient, you can speak directly on it. If it is not convenient, you can write on it."

Gao Heyun spoke indifferently.

Cheng Laiyun's eyes widened.

This isn't some kind of flying letter, it's just a cell phone!

What the hell?!

Isn't this a feudal dynasty?

First came the young lady's private jet.

Then there are massage chairs, smart driving...

Now you're telling me you already have a cell phone?

Niu Bo Yi.

"If there's nothing else, you can go back now."

Gao Heyun walked out expressionlessly.

"I have other important matters to attend to."

"Respectfully seeing off Lord Gao, I take my leave!"

Now that security is guaranteed.

Cheng Laiyun naturally wouldn't stay any longer.

After bowing to Gao Heyun, he left the yamen.

Before leaving, Cheng Laiyun glanced at the table in the room.

There was a brocade box on the table.

Inside the box was a shimmering jewel.

Then how about Xuanzhu...?
