282: That green dress, Baguio

Chapter 282: That Hint of Green, Bi Yao

Above Heyang City.

Leaving Xiao Bai and You Ji, Su Han controlled his Flying Sword alone, speeding towards Shanhai Courtyard like a star.

The sharp sound of wind breaking rushed past his ears, but it couldn't blow away the complex emotions filling his heart.

After all, he had been with You Ji and Xiao Bai for nearly a year and hadn't been apart much.

Their sudden departure left his heart feeling empty.

Thinking of this, he unconsciously slowed down the speed of his sword light, his thoughts drifting back to the moments they spent together.

“Sigh, it’s really a bit unaccustomed now that they’ve left.”

Su Han sighed softly, muttering to himself.

However, when he thought of Su Ru still being in the Cave Heaven world, a hint of comfort welled up in his heart.

“Fortunately, Su Ru’s body is just a Clone and doesn’t need to leave.”

Su Han’s mood eased slightly, and the corners of his mouth lifted into a faint smile.

Immediately, he increased the speed of his sword light again and flew towards Shanhai Courtyard.

Before long, Su Han returned to Shanhai Courtyard.

Putting away his sword light, he landed back on the ground and walked towards his room.

He planned to get some good rest, as he still had to continue his journey tomorrow.

As for Bi Yao?

Since he didn't see her, so be it.

Su Han didn't force it.

Moreover, with the connection to You Ji, they would eventually have a chance to meet in the future.

However, the moment Su Han stepped into the courtyard.

An unintentional glance upwards caused his gaze to be immediately drawn to a figure not far from his door.

His eyes instantly filled with extreme surprise.

Standing in front of the flowerbed not far from his room was a girl in a green dress.

Her figure seemed to blend with the surrounding night, yet she was so conspicuous that one couldn't ignore her.

“Could it be… her?”

Su Han's steps unconsciously stopped, and he carefully observed the woman before him.

The girl had a petite and delicate figure, wearing a emeraldgreen silk dress that seemed woven from the freshest green leaves of the mountains. The hem of her skirt swayed gently with the breeze, like rippling green waves.

Her long hair was as smooth as ink-colored silk, casually tied up, with a few playful strands falling beside her fair cheeks, further accentuating her small and exquisite oval face.

Her skin was also as fair as snow, glowing with a soft luster under the hazy moonlight.

It seemed covered by a thin veil, dreamlike and ethereal.

Her curved eyebrows were like crescent moons, slightly upturned at the ends, carrying a hint of liveliness and playfulness.

Her eyes were like two clear springs, limpid and bright, with a light flowing within them that sparkled like stars, as if hiding endless thoughts.

Below her straight nose was a cherry-red mouth that was naturally vibrant.

It was slightly pursed at the moment, as if she was contemplating something.

She stood there intently, looking at the flowers in the flowerbed, completely unaware of Su Han's arrival.

“This figure… it's actually…”

Su Han just quietly watched her profile, sighing softly in his heart, “Bi Yao!”

“That infatuated girl in the original work who moved and saddened countless people, I never expected to meet her on such a night, in such a way.”

For a moment, Su Han couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart, marveling at the wondrous arrangement of fate.

He had previously thought that he might miss her.

“However, does this even count as fate?”

Su Han looked at Bi Yao, who occasionally glanced towards his room, his eyes slightly narrowed, “She came prepared!”

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Standing in front of the flowerbed, Bi Yao was lost in thought, gazing at a small ordinary white flower within it. She slightly narrowed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth gently curved upward, seemingly recalling those beautiful moments.

As if through this small flower, she saw the distant past.

“Back then on Fox Qi Mountain, it seemed this kind of small flower also bloomed everywhere.”

“But now…”

“Mother is gone, and Aunt You also suddenly disappeared.”

She sighed faintly, her tone filled with deep sorrow, and her eyes became dim and lusterless, carrying a hint of melancholy.

“Although Uncle Qing Long said that from Aunt You’s last magical power fluctuation, he could sense that she didn’t die and had safely escaped, she was just seriously injured.”

“As for why she hasn’t returned, she is probably recuperating somewhere.”

“But.”

“Ah, I’m really still very worried about Aunt You’s safety… Aunt You, where are you?”

Saying this.

Bi Yao sighed softly, the worry in her eyes growing heavier.

She slowly lowered her head, looking at the small white flower in the flowerbed, her longing surging like a tide.

At this moment, Bi Yao looked towards Su Han's room door again, her eyes full of determination.

“Since I heard you were coming down the mountain, I waited for a long time, and finally I waited for you.”

Although her voice wasn't loud, it carried an unquestionable resolve.

“Since Aunt You disappeared after fighting with you, I must be able to find clues about Aunt You by finding you!”

She tightly clenched her fists, as if cheering herself on.

“Aunt You, you must be safe and sound. I have already lost my mother; I cannot lose you, Aunt You, as well.”

Bi Yao gently plucked a small flower and placed it at the tip of her nose, sniffing it lightly, as if the floral scent could give her some comfort.

“At the end of the tree, hibiscus flowers, blooming with red calyxes in the mountains. Beneath the moon, solitary and unmanned, they bloom and fall in profusion.”

“This young lady.”

“It's so late, and you're not resting, but admiring flowers in front of my door?”

“Truly, what elegant taste.”

Su Han walked behind Bi Yao at this moment, a faint smile on his face, and spoke.

“My door?”

Hearing Su Han's voice, Bi Yao abruptly turned around, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

“Could it be Su Han has returned?”

Immediately, she sized Su Han up and down, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes.

“A young man, handsome and graceful, pure as the clear moon and wind, with innocent thoughts…”

It was the first time she knew that a man could be so captivating, especially his temperament, which made her subconsciously want to get closer.

“He is that person from Qingyun Sect, hailed as comparable to Qing Ye Founder, the ancestor of Qingyun Sect's revival, the foremost Genius of the younger generation in the contemporary cultivation world, Su Han?”

Bi Yao slightly pouted, “He does look quite decent.”

“It's just a pity that he is a hypocrite from Qingyun Sect and the culprit behind Aunt You's disappearance.”

Thinking this.

Bi Yao took a light breath, trying her best to appear calm, as if everything was a ‘chance encounter.’

“What?”

“Can't this young lady come to your door?”

Su Han looked at Bi Yao and smiled, “Interesting! Is this my niece?”

Bi Yao is the daughter of Xiao Chi, and Xiao Chi is the younger sister of Xiao Bai.

As for the relationship between Su Han and Xiao Bai.

Although things haven't reached the point of no return yet, everything is slowly progressing naturally.

Therefore, based on Su Han's relationship with Xiao Bai and Xiao Chi.

Calling Bi Yao his niece is not an exaggeration at all.

Thinking of this, Su Han suddenly felt that he still had thoughts about Bi Yao, which seemed a bit evil!

However, Su Han quickly stopped dwelling on it. After all, he had already… with the mother and daughter, Tian Linger and Su Ru.

What does a niece who is as distant as can be count for?

“Su Ru, you’ve led me astray!”

Su Han sighed slightly in his heart, blaming Su Ru for lowering his moral bottom line.

Immediately, he walked slowly in front of Bi Yao, “Come, you can naturally come.”

“After all, this is Shanhai Courtyard, and I am just temporarily staying here.”

“It's just, I wonder if this young lady is truly here to admire flowers, or perhaps…”
