What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH)

Chapter 67: Nalan Yanran is busy cultivating

Looking at Yun Zhi, who was scrutinizing him up and down, Xiao Yan couldnt help but feel uncomfortable.

Although Yun Zhi was indeed beautiful, she was a genuine Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level), a powerhouse in the entire Jia Ma Empire!

As a Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level)  himself, being carefully observed by a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) with such a serious gaze made Xiao Yans heart tremble.

(Youre still not good enough, little Yanzi. Cant you handle a woman looking at you a couple of times?) Yao Chen sighed helplessly from within the ring and then chuckled, (Maybe shes interested in you, you know, love at first sight is not unheard of~)

(Please, Senior Yao, stop teasing your disciple.)

Xiao Yan curled his lips and sighed inwardly.

She was beautiful, carried herself with grace, and based on her demeanor, one could infer that she had significant backing. Moreover, she was a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) herself. Why would she be interested in a low-level Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level)  like him who had nothing to offer?

Love at first sight? Xiao Yan didnt believe in that.

In Xiao Yans understanding, not all but most cases of love at first sight were merely infatuation with the other persons appearance. To Xiao Yan, that couldnt be considered genuine liking.

Regardless, staying with a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) made Xiao Yan uneasy, especially when she displayed an unexplained interest in him.

It would be better to separate as soon as possible.

Xiao Yan never believed that someone being interested in him was a good thing, let alone when the persons strength far surpassed his own. If anything were to happen, Xiao Yan wouldnt be able to resist.

He must not harbor malicious intent, but he must never be without vigilance.

Xiao Yan admonished himself inwardly, retrieved the Heavy Xuan Ruler on his back, and then bowed to Yun Zhi.

Sister Yun Zhi, Xiao Yan needs to continue moving forward. Ill take my leave.

Without waiting for Yun Zhis response, Xiao Yan passed by her and prepared to leave. However, a delicate jade hand unexpectedly landed on his shoulder, causing Xiao Yan to be slightly surprised. He turned his head to look at Yun Zhi.

Sister Yun Zhi, is there something else you need?

Xiao Yans inquiry left Yun Zhi momentarily stunned. Then, her hand gently reached up to rest on her exquisite chin, and she tilted her head, deep in thought, as if pondering how to answer.

During this time, the hand gripping Xiao Yans shoulder showed no sign of letting go, gradually increasing his inner tension.

What does this sister intend to do? Have we met before?

Xiao Yan pondered in his mind, trying to recall if he had ever encountered Yun Zhi before.

But in the end, the search yielded no results.

In all of his memories, there was absolutely no trace of Yun Zhis presence. Xiao Yan was extremely certain of this.

If thats the case, why did Yun Zhi stop him?

Just as Xiao Yans mind was filled with doubts, Yun Zhi suddenly brightened, looking at Xiao Yan with a serious expression.

Actually, Ive fallen in love with you at first sight.

?????

In that instant, Xiao Yans brain froze.

She fell in love with me at first sight?

Sister, could you please, just next time when you lie, show a bit more authenticity?

With your clear eyes and serious expression, how can you resemble someone who has fallen in love at first sight?

And Im just a low-level Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) , while you are a mighty Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level). Why would you be interested in me?

Couldnt you come up with a more plausible reason?

While Xiao Yan was filled with question marks in his mind, Yao Chen inside the ring teased with a mischievous smile.

(Little Yanzi, did you hear that? We were right! This girl has fallen in love with you at first sight~)

(Senior Yao Please dont add to the confusion)

Xiao Yan rubbed his nose bridge, feeling a headache coming on, and regained his composure as he looked at Yun Zhi, asking her.

Um Sister Yun Zhi, may I ask what specifically caught your attention about me? What is the reason for your love at first sight?

Do you need a reason for love at first sight?

Yun Zhi calmly countered, leaving Xiao Yan speechless. After a while, he asked again.

Am I handsome?

Well youre not bad. You could be considered as one of the more pleasant-looking types.

Upon hearing Xiao Yans question, Yun Zhi actually earnestly examined his face and eventually gave such an answer.

Then, does it mean that you prefer younger men?

Not at all. You kids at this age are too willful. Just managing one disciple of your age is already giving me a headache. I dont want another one.

Said Yun Zhi while sighing deeply.

From her expression, Xiao Yan could tell that she truly struggled to interact with people of his age. The disciple mentioned by Yun Zhi must have caused her a lot of trouble.

With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Yan asked again.

So, this love at first sight you mentioned, is it with the intention of marriage?

Not at all. Forget about marriage; I have no interest in men at the moment.

Yun Zhi didnt hold back and straightforwardly denied, making Xiao Yan couldnt help but comment in his mind.

Then why on earth would you mention love at first sight?! If youre going to lie, at least make your logic consistent!

Sigh Xiao Yan sighed heavily and used the back of his hand to gently remove Yun Zhis arm from his shoulder. He spoke seriously, Sister Yun Zhi, if you have something to say, please be direct. Theres no need to use such absurd reasons like love at first sight as a cover-up.

Xiao Yan could tell that Yun Zhi was willing to resort to such blatant lies just to keep him, which meant there must be another important reason behind it. Since he, as a low-level Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) , couldnt defeat or escape from a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level), it was better to confront the situation head-on and get a clear answer.

I cant tell you the reason, Yun Zhi said calmly, her gaze shifting to the young man in front of her, slightly shorter than herself. Anyway, for the next few days, I will be with you until I am satisfied.

Xiao Yan was speechless.

Could he refuse? Even if he did, what could he possibly do?

A Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) had clearly expressed her intention to stay with him. As a low-level Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) , did he have the right to refuse?

(Isnt this great? Having a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) as a free personal bodyguard. You should be happy about it, kid! Who knows, after a few days of getting to know each other, she might actually fall for you, the little Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) ~~~)

Hearing Yao Chens nonchalant words from the ring, Xiao Yan felt an even greater headache.

But Xiao Yan still wanted to struggle a bit.

I dont know how to ride a carriage.

It doesnt matter. I also feel like taking a walk.

Our destinations might be different.

It doesnt matter. I have plenty of time this time. Its fine even if it takes one or two months.

It might be boring to follow me.

Its okay. Im not afraid of boredom.

Xiao Yan was completely speechless. It seemed that this sister was determined to follow him wholeheartedly.

Wait, this stubborn personality Where have I seen it before?

Xiao Yan furrowed his brow, pondering the unfamiliar sense of familiarity in his mind.

Meanwhile, inside the Yun Lan (Misty Cloud) Sect in the distance

Achoo!

Nalan Yanran, who had just temporarily stopped her cultivation, suddenly sneezed and rubbed her petite nose in confusion.

Thats strange. Im not sick, am I?

Nalan Yanran turned to Ge Ye, who was by her side, and asked.

Elder Ge Ye, has my master not returned yet?

Yes, the Sect Master said she might be away for a longer period this time, and it could take more than a month for her to return.

I see

Nalan Yanran nodded lightly, rested briefly, stretched her arms, and resumed her cultivation. Her eyes were filled with a radiant enthusiasm and anticipation for the future.

Clenching her fist, her heart filled with determination.

Xiao Yan! Wait for me!

Three years later, Nalan Yanran will definitely! Absolutely marry you!!!
