Capítulo 27

The two men in black who joined the attack made no attempt to cover themselves, focusing solely on Baili Qingyi, as if determined to leave their mark on him.

Yin Wuxiao let out a soft gasp and finally turned to look at Qiao Fenglang expectantly.

"Brother Fenglang..." Her voice held a hint of pleading.

However, Qiao Fenglang looked over her head, his gaze fixed on the distance, his tone icy: "I only agreed to send someone, not to help him personally. Besides, since Baili Qingyi is renowned throughout the martial world, is he afraid of not being able to handle a few amateurs?"

She was stunned.

She was wrong; she hadn't taken Qiao Fenglang's narrow-mindedness into account.

Baili Qingyi flew up like a blue flame, creating thousands of rays of light, one of which slashed sharply towards the "Traceless" master.

In the midst of the four-person melee, rocks flew up and dust swirled around. Yin Wuxiao couldn't see clearly what was happening, so he clenched his fist tightly, his fingertips digging deep into his palm.

With a loud bang, the four people were separated.

That sword energy had solidly penetrated the body of the "Traceless" master. A trace of blood seeped from the corner of his lips as he sneered, "Baili Qingyi, I still underestimated you."

A dark shadow flashed by, and he didn't forget to grab two of his subordinates who were also seriously injured by Baili Qingyi, and soared into the air.

Baili Qingyi stared at their retreating figures, showing no intention of following them.

Yin Wuxiao sensed something was wrong and was about to step forward when Qiao Fenglang stopped him, saying, "He's not that fragile."

As if refuting his words, Baili Qingyi's body trembled, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Bai Li Qingyi!" Yin Wuxiao couldn't help but exclaim.

A moment later, Baili Qingyi slowly turned around, his face slightly pale. He flew down the mountain, his movements fluid and graceful without any hesitation.

“Baili…” Yin Wuxiao’s heart pounded.

Baili Qingyi glanced at her indifferently, then at Qiao Fenglang, who was tightly embracing her possessively, and walked past them step by step.

"Young Master in Blue," Qiao Fenglang called out to him.

"I am very grateful to you for extending a helping hand to Xiao'er."

Baili Qingyi stopped.

Qiao Fenglang continued, "The Qiao Clan will be holding a wedding next month. I would like to invite the young master in blue to come to the Qiao Clan to drink my and Xiao'er's wedding wine."

Yin Wuxiao's face turned deathly pale.

She knew that Qiao Fenglang's actions were clearly a show of defiance; although the methods were childish, they thoroughly satisfied his ego.

But all of this seemed like a joke to Baili Qingyi, and she herself became a joke in his eyes as well.

Baili Qingyi turned around, and a gentle, harmless smile had returned to his face.

"Brothers of the Qiao Gang, you must all be excellent at horse stance."

"Huh?" Qiao Fenglang was taken aback by his unexpected remark.

Following Baili Qingyi's gaze, Yin Wuxiao looked at the large bamboo forest behind him. They had been standing there so arrogantly for so long, but none of them had been of any use.

Everyone, including Qiao Fenglang, looked at each other blankly.

Suddenly, a gasp was heard.

Yin Wuxiao gently bit her red lips with her pearly teeth and chuckled.

Pine Breeze in the Garden

Mu Wanfeng awoke seven days later.

During this time, Zhang Baitong first grabbed Qiao Fenglang's collar fiercely, shouting and jumping, almost punching him. Then, Wu Guo, who had barely escaped with his life, dragged his tattered body and tried to chop Qiao Fenglang's head with his broadsword. After things finally calmed down, the remaining three brothers of the Baili family, Yuwen Cuiyu, Yuwen Hongying and her sister, along with Qin Qiyun and her group, rushed over in a grand procession.

Upon learning Yin Wuxiao's true identity, none of the group showed any genuine surprise. Only Yuwen Hongying let out a soft "Ah!" with an expression that said, "So I really guessed right."

The atmosphere at Baiwen Manor was extremely awkward. Yuwen Cuiyu and Qin Qiyun maintained a polite and distant relationship, which made everyone secretly nervous. There were also undercurrents and undercurrents between the two Yuwen sisters. After sending back a large number of his subordinates, Qiao Fenglang openly talked about the upcoming happy event of the Qiao Gang next month.

Bai Can originally did not want to get involved in too much trouble and planned to take Cui Shenghan away to cherish their little time together. However, Cui Shenghan's health was extremely poor. After Xuan Hegu announced that she had to stay at Baiwen Manor until the baby was born, Bai Can, the future model father, had no choice but to stay.

Cui Shenghan was extremely cold-hearted. Even though she had willingly borne children for Bai Can, she remained outwardly indifferent to him. Bai Can, however, didn't seem to mind at all; on the contrary, he became even more devoted to his wife. It's a classic case of one thing overcoming another. However, Yin Wuxiao sensed that Cui Shenghan's coldness towards her contained a hidden friendliness, quite different from her attitude towards others. Was it because of her relationship with Bai Can? If so, shouldn't Cui Shenghan be incredibly jealous?

Suddenly one day, Cui Shenghan casually uttered a sentence:

“I’ve seen your enemy with my own eyes.” Although I didn’t see his face, Cui Shenghan did indeed take money from that person to kill her aunt.

Yin Wuxiao was startled. To say he didn't care at all? That would be a lie.

She gave a reassuring smile: "It's all in the past, don't think too much about it, just focus on getting better."

A small flame is burning in my heart.

After the Gu poison was cleared from her body, she didn't feel relieved. Instead, she felt as if the past twenty-one years of her life were pressing down on her like Mount Tai, making it hard to breathe. Lately, she often thought about her future, not just aimlessly daydreaming. As she thought, she knew she had to get back to that greedy Yin Wuxiao. Otherwise, how could she continue to endure the hardships of a life with a future and hope?

She needs to know who she should hate and how she should continue to hate.

"Aren't you the young master in blue's fiancée?" Xuan He asked her curiously.

"..." She was speechless. It seemed she still needed to figure out who she should think about and who she shouldn't.

Yin Wuxiao is a woman of her word, so the person she should be thinking about is naturally her brother Fenglang. Baili Qingyi is also a woman of her word. Once Qingyi appears, whether he is a sudden and unexpected person or a misattribution, he has been added to the list of people she shouldn't be thinking about. It's been three years, and she has to learn to control her greed.

Excessive greed will attract lightning strikes.

"Little Wu'er, I've always been curious. After three years of 'unfulfilled desires,' what is it that you most want to obtain after being cured of the poison?" Bai Can has always been extremely curious, and the pinnacle of his understanding can only be described as the two elements giving rise to the four symbols.

She remained silent, turning her face away with a disdainful expression.

Her face suddenly turned red.

Well... you can't blame her. For the past few months, she's been surrounded by handsome men, seduced, played with, and manipulated. Besides, she's been embraced, touched, and even seen naked by those men. Only now does she suddenly have this idea that she just escaped from a dye shop. She could be considered a pure and innocent young lady.

She was willing to bet that the two Yuwen sisters were not as naive as she was.

Sexual desire is a major human desire, but she usually treats it with a calm and ordinary attitude.

"Xiao'er?" Qiao Fenglang, who had been by her side, placed his large hand on her forehead and frowned, "Are you still feeling a little unwell?"

Yin Wuxiao snapped out of his daze and smiled: "How could that be? I couldn't be better."

Seeing his disbelieving expression, she smiled again and said, "I haven't asked you yet how my family's business in the capital is doing."

“Since that night, Cen Lu has been supporting the entire Yin family business, and Miss Shi has also helped manage it. Although it is not as prosperous as when you were here, it is still barely getting by.”

"That's how it is." She lowered her eyes. When Cen Lu was ten years old, she tricked him into signing a sixteen-year indenture, which was about to expire. It was rare that he had such good intentions and did not take advantage of her life and death to seize her family property.

"Don't worry, with the Qiao family as your backing, you'll be able to take over smoothly when you return to the capital after the wedding." Qiao Fenglang thought she was worried about the family fortune falling into someone else's hands.

Yin Wuxiao nodded with a faint smile. She trusted Cen Lu and Shi Mansi, but Qiao Fenglang ultimately couldn't understand her thoughts.

She has an innate flaw: she doesn't like to say everything and only does half of what she does. In this respect, she is quite similar to the pretentious Baili Qingyi. However, when two people like this are together, they will probably only drift apart, and eventually their friendship will truly become as bland as water.

Hmph, shouldn't you be thinking about it? Why are you thinking about it now?

She was startled to realize that if she continued like this, she would drown in her own inexplicable thoughts without even realizing it. She could only force a smile and say, "Brother Fenglang, I suddenly remembered that there are some things that need to be done by someone."

She emphasized "one person," noticing Qiao Fenglang's slightly embarrassed expression. She knew he had misunderstood, but she couldn't care less. She got up and walked away, leaving a bunch of onlookers behind her, chattering away as if a raging river was about to rush over.

It was a little awkward.

Given that she had harshly criticized him for barging into her room while she was taking a bath during their last time alone together, and his response was to knock her unconscious, pack her up, and send her back to the Qiao Gang, it was indeed a bit awkward at this moment.

She could only turn her head to study the moss on the artificial hill in Xuan Hegu's courtyard, unable to believe that she had fallen so low.

Baili Qingyi smiled gently and said, "What a coincidence."

Listen to what kind of talk this is!

"What a coincidence! Xiao'er hasn't yet thanked the young master in green for saving her life." She lowered her head, playing a polite game with him in perfect harmony.

Without even looking up, she could feel the man in front of her stiffen.

A moment of silence followed.

“I still owe you an explanation about this matter,” Baili Qingyi said, staring at her.

"Don't explain to me, I'm not interested in the affairs of the martial world." She reflexively rejected it; the martial world and killing were already synonymous in her mind.

Baili Qingyi fell silent again.

Yin Wuxiao suddenly felt a little guilty. She knew that for the young man in blue who commanded so much respect, the affairs of the martial world were his affairs. The burden on his shoulders was too heavy, too heavy. It was because of this that she, who could not obtain what she wanted, could act without restraint, while she, with feelings and desires, had to hesitate and retreat, simply because she was afraid that she would have to compete with the entire martial world for a man.

Many things I wanted to say but couldn't say before, I can't say now even more.

Baili Qingyi's gaze slightly burned her nerves. His expression remained unchanged, but a sigh seemed to escape from his deep, dark eyes.

He knew all along that if he had sent her away that day, everything would have been different, but he had no choice.

"Um... how is Miss Yuwen?" Yin Wuxiao stammered, but as soon as she realized what she had said, she wished she could bite her tongue off.

Baili Qingyi's eyes lit up.

"It's alright." He didn't ask which Miss Yuwen she was referring to, and just smiled to himself; that smile was truly rare in heaven and earth...

"Hmm..." Just as she was about to make amends and shut him up with his sly smile, she heard voices approaching.

"Have you seen the man in blue?" It was the virtuous and kind-hearted Qin Qiyun.

"No. I did see Xiao Wu'er escape from the hall just now, like there were wolves chasing her." It was naturally Baili Tieyi, that loose-lipped fellow.

Upon hearing this, Yin Wuxiao's expression suddenly changed. He no longer cared about the civilized way of fighting and hurriedly pulled Baili Qingyi into the crevice of the artificial mountain.

Baili Qingyi was stunned for a moment. Just as she was about to ask why she was hiding, she was pressed hard against the rock wall of the artificial hill and her mouth was covered by a soft little hand.

She gave him a warning look, signaling him to keep quiet.

He could only ask her with his eyes: What are you doing?

Upon receiving his message, Yin Wuxiao felt a sudden chill. Yes, why was she hiding? Was she really feeling guilty? She glared at him, somewhat exasperated, then turned her head away, refusing to meet his gaze.

Unexpectedly, the two people outside seemed to think that Xuan He had done a good job tidying up the garden, and they stopped next to the rockery.
