Chapter 32
After settling down, Guo Xinyi approached Xia Lihua and explained that Xiao Yueyin will be staying with them til the end of the All Desolate Competition.
This was without a doubt an odd decision. What about her Sect disciples? Who's watching over them?
But this was unrelated to Xia Lihua so she only gave a little nod.
Earlier. After Guo Xinyi took Lin Roulan home, Xiao Yueyin found her and expressed that she wanted to stay in her room. Guo Xinyi was naturally hesitant.
The room was already full, not to mention there was a man with a questionable character staying with them. Adding in Xiao Yueyin, it didnt seem appropriate. If people found out it would cause a ruckus! In the end, however, she still agreed.
Inside the room, everything was relatively peaceful. Xiao Yueyin and Guo Xinyi had produced a barrier and began cultivating.
However, Xiao Yueyin quickly became distracted and would occasionally look at Xia Lihua.
Ji Xians rhythmic breathing filled the room. Xia Lihua had noticed a special quality to it. His breathing carried something peculiar, it would calm her mind and clear her thoughts, allowing her to comprehend the contents of the book more easily.
Upon realizing this, a beautiful smile appeared on her face. She reached out and carefully caress Ji Xians face, her action was gentle as though she was afraid of waking him.
This scene was witnessed by Xiao Yueyin. Her eyes slightly widened. Xia Lihuas intimate behavior towards her servant was unusual.
Xiao Yueyin frowned, an uncomfortable feeling welled up inside her chest.
Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat. Xia Lihua was looking at her! Those silver eyes penetrated through the barrier and they exchange eye contact.
It was only for a brief second before Xia Lihua retracted her gaze but it made Xiao Yueyin feel naked! Like all her secrets and thoughts were exposed. Throughout the rest of the night, she was unable to concentrate.
In the next couple of days, Ji Xian and Xia Lihua never left the room. Xia Lihua read, while Ji Xian slept for two days straight and only woke up when the All Desolate Competition finally begins.
On this bright day, two figures walked out of the East Solitude Inn.
One of the figures yawned loudly and groaned.
Stop exaggerating, Ji Xian.
Is that how you talk to someone who helped you these past couple of days?
Oh? All you did was sleep.
Tch.
Xia Lihua smiled, she managed to finish the book given to her by Ji Xian, and thanks to his help, she was able to thoroughly comprehend it. She was even more confident now in transforming her Internal World. She just needed time.
Thank you. She said wholeheartedly.
Walking down the street, the city was incredibly lively. Excitement can be seen on everyones face. Occasionally people can be seen shouting and asking for bets to see who would win in this years competition. Many clans have also arrived with their respective geniuses. After the end of the competition, the Sects would hold a recruitment, offering everyone under a certain age a chance to join the Sect of their choosing, that is, if they pass their recruitment trials.
The streets were crowded and people were all heading in the same direction. At the center of the city, was an enormous stadium capable of housing over five hundred thousand people.
When Ji Xian and Xia Lihua arrived, many people were standing in line trying to buy a ticket for a seat to watch the competition. The two of them didnt join those people but instead, were standing at the entrance, waiting.
Not long after, Guo Xinyi and Xiao Yueyin arrived at the same time and greeted them. Since the Arcane Mountain and the Ardent Yin Sect were participators in the All Desolate Competition, they had to leave earlier in the morning to finish the registration.
Of course, Ji Xian and Xia Lihua werent participating but thanks to their connection, the two of them were able to grab two front seats beside the two famous Sects.
The people in line can only enviously look on as their group walked inside the stadium with no obstruction.
Look! its the Arcane Mountain! A youngster standing in line with his elders suddenly screamed.
Damn, I cant believe Im seeing the Dragon Saintess with my own eyes. Too bad shes wearing a veil... Said a man who looked like he was in his forties.
They dont look all that strong. Said the youngster.
Fool! Shut up! What do you know! The Elder beside him smacked his head.
The Ardent Yin Sect is there as well who are those two people with them?
The group took to their seats, Xiao Yueyin and Guo Xinyi didnt join them but headed elsewhere.
Inside a large hall.
Eight people were seated across each other underneath a large throne made of white marble.
Sitting on this throne, was a burly man with a thick beard wearing an ordinary blue robe with the word Solitude on the sleeve. His appearance was fierce but he gave off an odd feeling of loneliness. He exuded an aura of the Holy realm.
These people were in the middle of a discussion but were suddenly interrupted by the sound of approaching footsteps.
The door to the hall opened and Xiao Yueyin and Guo Xinyi walked in side by side, drawing everyones attention.
They took a glance at Guo Xinyi, the majority of them greeted her with a nod, while a few ignored her.
Seeing Xiao Yueyin, however, all, but one stood up and respectfully greeted her, including the burly man on the throne.
Well, well, well, look whos here, I didnt think the Dragon Saintess would make an appearance at such a dull event.
A man suddenly spoke with a haughty voice. He wore a conspicuous golden robe and his appearance was handsome. His hair was meticulously combed with not a single strand out of place. The mans eyes were sharp and full of arrogance.
He was the only one to remain seated while everyone stood up to greet Xiao Yueyin.
She sat down and closed her eyes, ignoring the man in the golden robe.
Guo Xinyi was beside her and sneered, Huang Yi, looks like youve forgotten the beating last time from Yueyin."
