8: Chapter 8: The senior brother who was being held hands with seems unhappy.
" Senior Brother... "
Mu Qiuxue held Li Qing's hand and shook it incessantly.
γ Are we even that close? Why are you holding my hand so tightly? γ
γ It'll look so bad if people see this. γ
" Oh, come on, Senior Brother, just go... " Mu Qiuxue actually started acting coquettish.
" Well, about that... "
Li Qing hesitated.
That wretched place was simply too dangerous.
γ But then again, with the Secret Realm appearing and attracting Geniuses from all directions, there must be plenty of gossip to feast on. γ
γ I could go. At worst, I'll just run away after eating the gossip. γ
γ As for Mu Qiuxue, she is the female protagonist, a natural aggro magnet. Whoever stays by her side comes with an aggro-attracting BUFF; she's a walking troublemaker. γ
γ Go with you? Forget it. If I go, I'll sneakily go by myself. γ
" Let go of my hand first. "
Li Qing tried to pull his hand away several times, but failed.
" Let go? "
" If I let go, won't you just run away? "
" For the sake of the Opportunity, I, Mu Qiuxue, am going all out. Letting go is impossible; I will never let go in this lifetime. "
Mu Qiuxue could hear Li Qing's inner thoughts clearly.
Want to run? No way.
A troublemaker, am I? I'll trouble you to death.
" I don't know why, but holding Senior Brother's hand feels very comfortable. " Mu Qiuxue smiled brightly.
γ Is this Mu Qiuxue sick? γ
γ I am not a Pure Yang Dao Body, for goodness' sake. That thing is what attracts female cultivators, and the higher their cultivation, the harder they're drawn to it. γ
" Senior Brother... "
Mu Qiuxue started shaking Li Qing's hand again.
γ This woman must be sick. γ
γ Forget it. I'll go with her first and find a chance to slip away halfway. γ
Li Qing quickly made up his mind.
Want to slip away? My hand is practically glued to you.
Mu Qiuxue chuckled inwardly.
Senior Brother Li's hand is so warm. So this is what it feels like to hold a man's hand.
" Fine, since Junior Sister Mu has sincerely invited me, I will accompany you on this trip. " Li Qing rolled his eyes.
" Thank you, Senior Brother. Let's go. "
Mu Qiuxue happily pulled Li Qing's hand and flew towards the outside of the Sect.
Their actions naturally caught the eyes of some Taiyi Immortal Sect Disciples.
" Damn, what did I just see? The Saintess is actually holding hands with someone. "
" Who is this Senior Brother? How did he gain the Saintess's favor? "
" Doesn't the Saintess like Gu Beichen? "
" Holy crap, does our Sect actually have such a Divine Being? He actually intercepted Gu Beichen's girl. "
" That's badass. "
" As long as it's someone from our Taiyi Immortal Sect, I'm happy no matter who intercepts Gu Beichen. I've long found that dog thing an eyesore. "
" Senior Brother is mighty! "
In an instant, the entire Sect was in an uproar.
Meanwhile, this scene also caught the eyes of many high-ranking Sect members.
" Huh? Isn't Mu Qiuxue in love with Gu Beichen? What's going on? Holding hands so openly? "
" What love with Gu Beichen? That petty thief doesn't deserve our Sect's Saintess. "
" Exactly, exactly. "
" Although I don't know who this Disciple is, as long as it's someone from our Taiyi Immortal Sect, I support it. "
" Charity begins at home, you know. "
God knows how disgusted they were when they learned the Sect Saintess was in love with the Moon Wheel Holy Land Saint. Now, it's great; their mood has instantly become incredibly comfortable.
Regardless of whether they can actually end up together, as long as it disgusts the Moon Wheel Holy Land, they support it.
" Send people to spread the news. "
" We need to disgust the Moon Wheel Holy Land properly, just like they disgusted us back then. "
Meanwhile, Li Qing was met with admiring gazes from many Disciples along the way, making his scalp tingle.
γ Holy crap, I'm just a background character, lady! Don't do this to me! γ
" Senior Brother is mighty! "
" May Senior Brother and the Saintess achieve a happy ending soon and piss off that Gu Beichen from the Moon Wheel Holy Land to death. "
People in the crowd started shouting.
Li Qing: " ... "
γ Holy crap, how did I forget about Gu Beichen? γ
γ This Mu Qiuxue is the woman Gu Beichen has his eyes on. γ
γ Damn, if this reaches his ears, my hatred value will instantly increase by 100,000. It'll be a fight to the death. γ
γ I didn't do anything, and my hatred value with the child of destiny is maxed out? γ
γ Mu Qiuxue, you can't set me up like this. γ
" Senior Brother is truly a role model for us all. "
" Wishing Senior Brother and the Saintess to have a child soon... "
Li Qing's face turned green.
Have a child soon?
" Have a child with your grandpa! " Li Qing was so angry.
" Huh, this Senior Brother who is being held hands looks like he isn't happy. "
" Seems like it. "
Li Qing couldn't help but roll his eyes. You all said he is "being held hands," how could he be happy?
" Let go of my hand. "
Li Qing started struggling.
" I won't. "
Mu Qiuxue held on tight. Hmph, if I let go, won't you run away?
" Let go. "
" I won't. "
" You let go! "
" I won't. "
This scene left many people dumbfounded.
" I get it, this Senior Brother is being forced by the Saintess... oh no, he's being forcibly held by the hand. "
" I can picture it now, I can picture it now. "
" It's so vivid. "
Many Taiyi Immortal Sect Disciples had mischievous smiles on their faces.
" Heh, young people these days really know how to play. "
" Spread the news, don't leave this scene out. I want to disgust the Moon Wheel Holy Land to death. "
" What kind of Saint is he? He can't even compare to one of our ordinary Disciples. "
At this moment, Li Qing had tried to pull his hand away countless times but couldn't break free.
He and Mu Qiuxue were in the same realm; without using their Dao Body, neither could do anything to the other.
The two of them left the Sect amidst the noise and commotion.
...
Tianjue Mountain Range.
At this time, the usually deserted Tianjue Mountain Range became extremely lively.
A beam of treasure light shot out from the mountain range, piercing the sky.
The Secret Realm had appeared, attracting countless Geniuses from the Eastern Wasteland to gather here.
" Gu Beichen, we have inspected this Secret Realm; it should be the resting place of a Great Expert. You must seize the Opportunity after you enter. " An old man in purple robes said, looking at the young man in front of him.
The two were none other than Lei Wanting and Gu Beichen of the Moon Wheel Holy Land.
" Is the Elder not coming in with me? " Gu Beichen frowned slightly.
The resting place of a Great Expert is not a kind place. If there were a King Sealing Realm Expert to protect the path, it would be much safer.
" I have checked; the Secret Realm has a Restriction that prevents King Sealing Realm Experts from entering. " Lei Wanting shook his head.
" Disciple understands. "
Gu Beichen nodded.
Many Secret Realms have this kind of setting, so it's nothing new.
" Huh, isn't that Gu Beichen of the Moon Wheel Holy Land? His woman has been snatched away by someone, yet he still has the mood to come here and explore the Secret Realm. "
" I'm afraid he doesn't know yet that his corner has been dug out. "
" That's not just digging out a corner, that's excavating the entire foundation. "
" I heard the two are holding hands, inseparable. The way they show affection is sickeningly sweet; even Gu Beichen never managed to do that. "
" What? "
Gu Beichen, who had been contemplating the Secret Realm, was shocked upon hearing this.
Mu Qiuxue was the woman he had his eyes on, possessing the Supreme Profound Golden Soul Body, which was an important Cauldron for him. He absolutely would not allow anyone else to touch her.
" Who exactly dares to touch my woman? "
" Die. "
