After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 367 Sisters Meet

"Senior Brother Lu, it's been a long time since we last met Miss Qin," Shen Xu greeted the two with a smile.

“Junior Brother Shen, you’re like a dragon that appears only once in a while! I heard that you also joined the Heavenly River Society and I even inquired about your residence, but unfortunately no one knows. Otherwise, I would definitely often come to Junior Brother Shen to catch up and exchange skills.”

"I haven't been in the Sword Alliance for a while, and as for my residence... let's not talk about it! It's not appropriate for you to go there anyway." Shen Xu shook his head; the fewer people who knew he was living in Qingling Creek, the better.

"Senior Brother Lu, do you know who the sect leader brought this time?"

"I heard it from Xiaoqing, but I guess the sect leader will definitely bring his junior sister."

"I think so."

"Junior Sister, could Qingshan tell us more about her?" Qin Qing asked curiously.

"Haha, Shen Xu and I were both kicked out by the sect leader for making way for our junior sister."

"Is she really that talented? Is she so exceptional that your sect leader would be willing to abandon you to nurture her?"

"Junior Sister's talent is top-notch even within the Sword Alliance. The sect leader has placed all his hopes for the sect's glory on her. When she was still in the sect, we all doted on her. More than a year has passed, and I wonder what she's become now."

Lu Qingshan seemed lost in his memories.

"Then I'll have to get to know her," Qin Qing said with a smile.

Shen Xu had to admit that Lu Qingshan's move to shift the blame was brilliant; even if Wang Ya really came, Qin Qing's attention wouldn't be on her.

At this moment, Lu Qingshan thanked Bai Lu, who had been standing beside him, and said, "Thank you for helping me deliver the message to Shen Xu."

"I'm no longer the head of the association, just call me by my name. Let's set off now!"

Upon hearing Bai Lu's words, Lu Qingshan was somewhat surprised, and then turned his gaze to Shen Xu.

He remembered that the last time he met Shen Xu, Shen Xu was with Li Xiaoyi, but now it was Bai Lu instead. Both of them were people he was not qualified to associate with.

"Junior Brother Shen, how much more do you know that I don't know about you?" Lu Qingshan sighed inwardly.

"Senior Sister Bai, how do we get there?" Qin Qing was also a little surprised that Bai Lu wanted to come with them, but she quickly realized that Bai Lu was probably doing this because of Shen Xu.

This made him even more curious about what Shen Xu had been doing all this time, as even simple things like going out required Bai Lu to watch over him.

"I have a flying shuttle, so I'll use it to send you there! There's no need to go through the trouble of going to the teleportation array."

"Flying shuttle!" Lu Qingshan's eyes showed shock. As expected, the world of someone like Bai Lu was beyond his imagination.

Inside the shuttle, Qin Qing curiously examined the interior decorations. "Senior sister, can you explain the difference between a shuttle and a flying sword?"

"It's like the difference between riding a horse and riding in a carriage, but the flying shuttle is much faster than the flying sword, carries more functions, and different flying shuttles have different functions."

My 'Spirit Shuttle' is renowned for its speed, but its defensive capabilities are much weaker, and it doesn't possess much offensive power. However, it can mimic the colors of its surroundings and evade divine sense detection, making it a shuttle specifically designed for self-preservation.

"That's amazing! I want to buy one someday."

Bai Lu smiled but didn't say anything.

"Miss Qin, may I ask how you met Senior Brother Lu?" Shen Xu suddenly asked.

"Of course! I remember before the sword selection even started, I was in charge of leading the sword selectors from all over to visit the Tianhe Sword Sect, and Qingshan was one of them..."

After some time, Bai Lu's flying shuttle landed in the area of ​​Tianjian City specifically designated for flying swords to take off and land.

Stepping out of the flying shuttle, looking at the familiar scene before him and the Heavenly Sword Tower in the distance, Shen Xu couldn't help but recall the days when he struggled to survive in Heavenly Sword City. He wondered if the witch was still in the Min Pavilion or had already returned to the Blood Fiend Palace.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Xu suppressed the urge to see the witch that was deep in his heart. He had finally gotten rid of the witch, and if he went to see her now, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?

Although the four-way auction has not yet started, Tianjian City has become unusually lively. High-level cultivators can be seen strolling around everywhere, making Shen Xu feel that the Qi Condensation Realm is the threshold for ordinary people here.

Among them, Shen Xu also saw groups of Sword Alliance disciples dressed in gorgeous Sword Alliance robes patrolling the streets to maintain order in Tianjian City. These handsome men and beautiful women in uniform were a beautiful sight in Tianjian City.

The various markets of Heavenly Sword City were incredibly crowded, teeming with cultivators hoping to find a bargain. However, given the density of the crowds, the chances of actually finding a good deal were slim.

The stall owners were equally unreserved, claiming an ordinary jade bracelet was a fragment of a spiritual treasure, and their stories were increasingly outrageous. Shen Xu felt that he could come here to learn from their experiences when he ran out of material for making up stories in the future.

The key point is that quite a few people actually handled it repeatedly, as if it were some kind of priceless treasure, their eyes revealing greed.

No wonder Yun Yao didn't want Li Xiaoyi to come out; she probably felt uncomfortable with him too!

Meanwhile, the newly opened appraisal shops of the Tianjian Chamber of Commerce were overflowing with people, with queues of people wanting to have their items appraised and auctioned stretching from inside the shops onto the street, with lines that seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.

No wonder Li Xiaoyi has been so busy lately; her net worth is estimated to increase several times over after this auction.

Dish Pavilion.

Shang Xueyi has been a bit irritable lately. She was supposed to return to Guangchuan Domain with Shang Su a few months ago, but she waited until now to say goodbye to Shen Xu and Li Xiaoyi.

But she never expected that the Seven Luminaries Sect would seal the inter-domain array because the Four Directions Sword Alliance was going to hold an auction.

This whole thing seemed suspicious no matter how you looked at it. She knew that the Four Directions Sword Alliance and the Seven Luminaries Sect were definitely plotting something, but she couldn't get any information out of them.

Most importantly, Shen Xu and Li Xiaoyi disappeared without a trace after entering Tianjian Mountain. Shen Xu was one thing, but he didn't want to see her in the first place.

But she didn't understand why Li Xiaoyi hadn't come to see her, the sister she had just recognized, for so long.

She knew that Li Xiaoyi was not an ungrateful person, and since their souls were connected, Li Xiaoyi didn't need to be wary of her. However, even the Blood Fiend Sect's spies stationed in Tianjian Mountain couldn't find any information about the two of them, as if they had vanished into thin air.

This made him worry that something might have happened to the two of them.

Just then, she heard a soft knock on the door. Shang Xueyi couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. Recently, many high-level cultivators had come to Tianjian City, and many of them knew about the existence of the Min Pavilion. However, some hotheads had accidentally barged in, making her originally peaceful life no longer peaceful.

However, according to the rules of the restaurant, she could not turn away the guests and could only receive them one by one.

She also had to discipline those who refused to follow the rules of the palace, a life that left her feeling exhausted.

Back behind the counter, Shang Xueyi put on a formulaic smile and said softly, "Please come in!"

But when she saw the figure push open the door and enter, the smile on her face immediately turned into surprise.

"Xiao Yi, I've missed you so much!" Shang Xueyi excitedly ran out from behind the counter and hugged Li Xiaoyi tightly.

Then, as if remembering something, she immediately released Li Xiaoyi and said coldly, "Isn't this my newly adopted sister? Why did you suddenly decide to grace us with your presence today? I thought you had forgotten about me!"

"Sister Xueyi, don't be angry, let me explain." Li Xiaoyi took Shang Xueyi's hand.

"Actually, I wanted to come see my sister after the Sword Selection ended, but the Sword Alliance suddenly asked me to explore a secret realm. I didn't expect to be trapped there for more than half a year until recently."

However, I came to see my sister as soon as I got out; it wasn't that I intentionally didn't come to see her.
