Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

A gentle breeze blows, clouds drift and roll, and the river flows murmurs softly.

"Hey, Yixuan, let's break up. This is too torturous!"

"Cough cough...cough cough...I warned you long ago to stay away from women. You're going to have a love tribulation. I'm helping you, saving you!"

Shen Yichen turned to look at Yixuan, who was constantly picking his nose. He really couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false. It was obvious that Qianxin would bring him trouble, because Song Xingzhou's gaze towards Qianxin was wrong. It was obvious that he liked her and was deeply in love with her!

"Yixuan, so you're saying you did that on purpose just now?"

"Stay away from women. It's good for you. You decide what to do. From now on, we'll eat separately. Either you eat first, or I eat first. I can't take it anymore. My nose is almost swollen!"

Shen Yichen stood up, looked at the flowing water, and after a moment, murmured:

"You'd better stay away from me. My identity as the former young master of the Ji family will soon spread throughout Yanquan. This trip is fraught with danger and could bring you trouble!"

Shen Yichen was somewhat frustrated. He hadn't even entered Wulang Academy yet, and his identity had already been exposed. Song Xingzhou wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

Actually, the calamities and troubles are secondary; the real question is how he will get to Tianyi Pavilion.

Shen Yichen was troubled!

"What's wrong with the young master of the Ji family? It's not like he's something to be ashamed of. If he can enter Yingzhou, he can certainly enter Yanquan. Instead of avoiding it, why not face it directly? Let others talk about right and wrong, merits and demerits. Anyway, you don't want to be a member of the Ji family anymore. Is there any worse outcome than this?"

If I were you, I would turn Yanquan, and even the whole world upside down, so that the Ji family would have no choice but to remove your name. Shen Yichen, I despise you!

If you don't want to be a member of the Ji family, then take steps to avoid it. Your lack of action shows your inner conflict. You can't stay trapped in this dilemma forever, can you?

Shen Yichen was scolded again. These words seemed to be said by his master or his parents, but it was Yixuan who said them.

Yi Xuan really considered Shen Yi Chen a friend, otherwise he wouldn't have said those things to him.

Shen Yichen couldn't accept it or make a decision for the time being, so he turned to look at Yixuan and said very seriously and solemnly:

"Thank you, Yixuan!"

"Hey!"

Yixuan felt nauseous again, but he couldn't vomit anything.

"Stop talking so disgustingly, okay? When I was little, I always wondered what you would look like standing on the World Star Gazing Platform. But alas, what a disappointment! Whether in the Ji family or in the martial world, you can't be a good person, you can't be a coward, you can't be a wimp!"

Yi Xuan stood up, looked at Shen Yichen's profile, and whispered:

"That man is more handsome and more charismatic than you, so why would that woman use you to provoke him?"

Although Yi Xuan had never experienced a romantic relationship, he could tell that there must be something wrong with Song Xingzhou and Qian Xin's relationship!

"Intentionally righteous, yet forgetting righteousness; unintentionally wicked, yet clinging to evil! It turns out he and I are truly the same kind of people. Does this mean my fate will also be to retreat to the mountains? But I really just want to walk my own path in the martial world!"

Shen Yichen thought of the purple-robed man at the bottom of Jingyun Gorge; their situations seemed to be similar.

Yi Xuan is right. If we don't find a way to change things, he will eventually become neither human nor ghost. A person cannot walk on two different paths at the same time.

"Hmph, do you think he can still go into seclusion? If I'm not mistaken, that person has definitely left the bottom of Jingyun Gorge!"

Shen Yichen was startled by what he heard. He turned to look at Yixuan, wanting to say something, but then swallowed his words.

"Let's go, let's go and meet the Song family of Yishui again!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yichen's expression changed!

"Yi Xuan, you, you mustn't do anything reckless! When you're in the martial world, it's better to avoid trouble!"

"Tch, you keep retreating, keep yielding, keep running away, have you had less trouble? Do you really blame all your misfortunes on heaven?"

After Yixuan finished speaking, he leaped up and went ashore.

Shen Yichen was stunned for a long while, muttering to himself:

"Does this mean I'll have a different way of life after entering Yanquan?"

Shen Yichen shook his head, then nodded, and flew ashore.

"Let's have some tea, my throat hurts from vomiting!"

After Yi Xuan finished speaking, he walked directly towards the teahouse, and Shen Yi Chen naturally followed.

Yixuan stood at the entrance of the teahouse, quietly looking at the couplets on the door.

It says on the left:

Half a pot of mountain spring water boils the universe!

On the right it says:

A cup of delicate fragrance intoxicates the mortal world!

Shen Yichen arrived in front of the teahouse and was slightly surprised, because the teahouse was called Red Dust Teahouse.

"Yichen, isn't this interesting?"

Shen Yichen nodded, and the two walked into the Red Dust Teahouse together.

Although Hongchen Teahouse has two floors, only the first floor is where you drink tea.

Shen Yichen regretted it as soon as he stepped into the teahouse, because Song Xingzhou and Qianxin were also there.

Yixuan is really brave; he sat down right at the table.

"You two can share the drinking table, and we'll share the tea table. You two don't mind, right?"

Shen Yichen's heart was shattered into pieces!

There are plenty of empty seats in this teahouse. Isn't Yixuan clearly trying to pick a fight?

"Sit down, Shen Yichen. We're friends in Jianying, right? Don't worry, I won't steal Qingyu's man!"

Looking at Qianxin, who was smiling and poised, Shen Yichen felt like a little woman himself!

Shen Yichen sat down, and he sat between Qianxin and Song Xingzhou. Since Song Xingzhou and Qianxin had initially sat opposite each other, now Yixuan and Shen Yichen were sitting opposite each other.

"Is this Yanquan Pastry? Let me try some. I'm starving! Sister or sister, never eat with Shen Yichen again, he's disgusting when he eats!"

Song Xingzhou, Qian Xin, and Shen Yichen were all stunned. Yi Xuan's change in attitude was too unexpected! All three of them had thought that Yi Xuan would cause trouble.

“Brother Xingzhou, what are you doing with that jade bone tied around your waist? That’s not a good omen. I’ve studied some divination techniques, and a few days ago I met someone with a white bone wrapped around his waist. I could tell at a glance that he was destined to die because the white bone around his waist was tainted with something unclean. I didn’t expect that when I met him again, he was really dead. What a pity!”

Shen Yichen was really unlucky. He had just eaten half a piece of pastry when he choked on it. Of course, he choked on Yixuan's words.

Shen Yichen couldn't swallow anymore and was about to cough it up. However, he was originally facing Qianxin, but in his panic, he turned his head and spat all the pastries in his mouth onto Song Xingzhou.

"Yeah……"

Shen Yichen choked on the pastry and couldn't speak, so he picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"sorry Sorry!"

Song Xingzhou remained calm, patting the dust off his body and face with a smile.

"You two are truly men of character! Welcome to Yanquan!"

Yixuan pretended not to see anything, slowly munching on her pastries, and continued speaking:

"That person's name seems to be Song Yuyang. He was cleaved in two with a single blow, and the bones at his waist were shattered into powder. The person who killed him was blind, and he could play the erhu. His name was something like Mr. Yichen. I forgot. You tell them both!"

The three people at the table, who were initially calm and wary, are now all shocked!

Shen Yichen really didn't expect that Yixuan would actually tell him everything. Wasn't this courting death?

Song Xingzhou and Qianxin stared at Shen Yichen and Yixuan in horror.

Qianxin and Song Xingzhou guessed that the person was Mr. Siyuan, but it was too unbelievable, and the two of them couldn't believe it!

Qianxin grabbed Shen Yichen's hand and exclaimed in surprise:

"Shen Yichen, is what he said true?"

Shen Yichen was frustrated. He didn't know how to answer. Yixuan was clearly trying to drag him into this mess, and he couldn't escape it at all.

Shen Yichen shook his head and did not answer.

Song Xingzhou's face was gloomy, and his smile finally disappeared.

"What do you call this little brother?"

"Are we that close? I like older girls, not older guys!"

Shen Yichen dared not eat or drink tea anymore; Yixuan's words were becoming increasingly hurtful.

Song Xingzhou glanced at Qianxin, who hesitated for a moment, but still asked:

"What do you call your little brother?"

"Yi Xuan, as for what surname to use, I'll use whatever surname he has!"

Yi Xuan refers to Shen Yichen.

Song Xingzhou and Qian Xin's expressions changed slightly, and they both looked at Shen Yichen at the same time. They couldn't guess whether Yixuan's surname was Ji or Shen!

Shen Yichen now wants to strangle Yixuan; she's too good at scheming and manipulating people.

Shen Yichen sighed softly:

"My surname is Shen, and my given name is Yichen. I am new to Yanquan. I hope you two will take good care of me in the future!"
