Chapter 434 - 0267 Trouble? (Two in One)_2

The Fairy has arrived, but accompanying the Fairy is also a rather indiscreet young man.

Originally, the girl, like an immortal crane, was as cold as Xue Mei, but her actions were akin to a young girl leaning against him.

"..."

Not just the men, some women also understood the recent news from Muyu Peak about a certain "Miss Yun"... it turns out there was no exaggeration.

Someone recognized Xu Chang’an.

The young man who could use the token of Muyu Peak was a name heard even by those who did not know him, but... everyone was puzzled.

Although there were rumors privately that Muyu Peak kept a concubine, and Xu Chang’an was called the top pretty boy of Chaoyun by some interested parties, but... he had never been publicly close with a woman before.

And now...

No more pretense, admitting it, right.

——

As Xu Chang’an stepped off the Teleportation Array, countless gazes fell on him, but he was used to it, and he immediately supported Yun Qian.

"Are you feeling any discomfort from the transfer?"

"A bit dizzy." Yun Qian frowned slightly.

And as the girl frowned, the cultivators felt a tightness in their hearts, desperately wanting to please her immediately.

"Lean on me, I’ll support you a bit." Xu Chang’an said.

"Hmm."

Everyone: "..."

Xu Chang’an was not the type to deliberately show love or provoke envy, but the girl’s wellbeing was paramount; if he were to let go of her hand just because people were watching, then cultivation was not worth pursuing, might as well go home to farm.

Ignoring everyone, Xu Chang’an wrapped his arm around Yun Qian and headed toward the mountain gate.

In the intangible aura, the streets initially crowded suddenly opened up a path.

Xu Chang’an was slightly surprised, then bowed slightly as a gesture to those making way, and then continued along the path.

"..."

After a while, whispers began to spread.

"Who is this? With such face."

"The one from Muyu Peak, you will know if you inquire."

"And the one next to him?"

"Don’t know."

People wanted to say something but didn’t know what to say... Firstly, those women at Muyu Peak were not to be trifled with, wearing veils, unknown identities.

Still, extraordinary air can bring trouble.

Many continued to stare at the Teleportation Array, wondering... what kind of girl appeared just now.

"Get on with whatever you’re supposed to be doing." At this moment, a young girl sitting at a stall, having watched everything unfold, raised her head: "Don’t get yourself into trouble."

On this low-level main platform, most people were outsiders, and everyone should avoid showing attitudes, so the girl’s words immediately caused dissatisfaction among the crowd.

To be frank, just seeing Xu Chang’an’s unsteady steps, clearly having just started cultivation... it’s hard to believe outsiders don’t have bad intentions.

"Who are you..."

Yet as someone was halfway speaking, they swallowed their words.

The stall girl had a vivid red embroidery on her shoulder, marking her as a legitimate second-generation disciple of Chaoyun Sect.

Gradually, the commotion died down.

The stall girl looked in the direction Yun Qian was leaving, a barely visible blush appeared on her cool face.

"Miss Yun, truly... a beautiful person."

Even though she hadn’t seen her features, how could she be so moved.

The girl thought about Xu Chang’an’s hand at Yun Qian’s waist, gritting her teeth slightly with jealousy, but helplessly.

She was not worried in the slightest that Xu Chang’an would encounter trouble, in fact... she wouldn’t dare to trouble Xu Chang’an herself.

The reason was simple.

Wen Li’s multitude of admirers consisted of many young ladies from rich families, with countless legitimate daughters of minor sects dreaming of Wen Li.

Since Xu Chang’an took Wen Li’s Sword Qi for a stroll in the Hundred Herbs Garden, he became a "protected animal" in those women’s eyes.

Causing trouble for Xu Chang’an was akin to causing trouble for Wen Li.

"..." Just as she was thinking, the girl suddenly frowned.

Because she saw several people from the Profound Sword Bureau quietly conversing in the direction Xu Chang’an left, then... someone left hastily with a token, while the others concealed their breath, following after Xu Chang’an.

The girl squinted her eyes and silently left.

——

Exiting the main building assembly, Xu Chang’an led Yun Qian to the foot of the mountain, where noticeably fewer people were present.

On the mountainside, Xu Chang’an stepped onto the broad White Jade steps, breathing a sigh of relief: "We finally got out."

At the treetops, bathed in the glow of the rising sun.

Yun Qian looked back, about to speak, when Xu Chang’an squeezed her palm, bringing her back to the moment, asking: "Weren’t there supposed to be rumors? Why didn’t I hear any?"

"I wanted to say the same." Xu Chang’an spread his hands.

Usually when he traveled, people poked at him all the way... this time, not only did people make way, but there were also barely any harsh words.

He glanced at Miss Yun with a calm demeanor, smiling wryly: "As thanks to you, Miss, they were all focused on watching you, who then had time to bother with someone as insignificant as me."

The girl’s charm truly increased day by day.

Along the way, even the women, besides the men, stared intensely at her.

He never imagined that taking her out would have such an effect.

"Watching me..." Yun Qian thought: "Are you not pleased?"

"More worried about any trouble, after all... the mountain is rife with various thugs." Xu Chang’an frowned, but soon relaxed.

Not too worried.

On the mountain, there’s Li Zhibai, and down the mountain, there’s Zhu Pingniang, all reliable elders within the family.

If they don’t venture far, no trouble will arise.

But he couldn’t possibly keep her under the Chaoyun Sect’s protective wings forever...

However, future matters can be considered later.

Just as Xu Chang’an was about to speak, he suddenly heard a lingering sound of bells and chimes echoing in the air from afar, looking towards it... a cascade of glowing haze met his eyes, revealing snippets of apricot walls and green-grey temple roofs.

This commotion couldn’t be small.

Presumably, someone from the Buddhist Sect is visiting the mountain.

"It has nothing to do with us, Miss... let’s take the small path over there." Xu Chang’an led Yun Qian to the small path to avoid colliding with those walking the main road while chanting.

"Small path?" Yun Qian looked at him.

"Sect Leader’s rules dictate that no matter who is visiting the mountain, they must ascend step by step from this main road." Xu Chang’an mused that this main road wasn’t anything special, it was the road used by the most ordinary disciples...

He first learned of this rule and understood Chaoyun Sect’s status in Qing Province.

"Let’s also head down the mountain." Xu Chang’an stretched lazily, saying: "Fortunately no one caused trouble along the way, looks like today many visit the mountain, maybe the sect warned them beforehand."

Saying this, Xu Chang’an shook his head.

If not for being within the sect, he’d carry Yun Qian.

"Hold onto me as we go down."

"Hmm." Yun Qian responded.

But just as Xu Chang’an was about to leave, a Spiritual Power reverberated from behind him, immediately two people appeared.

Xu Chang’an turned around to see two young men with waist tokens.

Profound Sword Bureau?

Again with Profound Sword Bureau...

Xu Chang’an was taken aback, hearing the two young men bow, then sincerely saying: "Junior Brother Xu, please proceed slowly, our Young Master invites you for a talk at the White Jade Platform’s Half Pavilion."

Miss Yun blinked, tilting her head at the two in front, "Is this the trouble you mentioned?"

"Shh." Xu Chang’an patted Miss Yun’s waist.

Profound Sword Bureau.

This was the second time.

Previously in the Hundred Herbs Garden, he had been stopped once.

Profound Sword Bureau’s Young Master... Sikong Jing?

He became more serious.

Such a colossal entity as the Profound Sword Bureau couldn’t be ignored.

Specifically waiting on his path down the mountain to block him... for what purpose? Just really wanting to talk?

He had no interactions with them.

"Your Young Master?" Xu Chang’an maintained a calm expression, glancing at the nearby empty White Jade Platform’s Half Pavilion.

It’s empty, where’s the person.

"... The Young Master is on the way." Profound Sword Bureau’s envoy explained.

They’d been watching Xu Chang’an descending the mountain for a while, after Profound Sword Bureau proposed to Muyu Peak, due to rumors, they couldn’t seek Xu Chang’an in crowded places, nor could they initiate at his residence.

Otherwise, approach Xu Chang’an, and then face "Protection Association" behind them.

Upon meeting now, they naturally must hold him thoroughly.

This was the Young Sect Leader’s request, they were following it.

Sikong Jing was already on the way.

He wished to talk with Xu Chang’an once... but it was immensely difficult.
