If Brother Yunqi, who was just across the aisle, saw her face or jumped out of the house, this journey on the immortal boat would end immediately.

On the way back with Jing Yuan, Cheng An was still praying, hoping that Brother Yunqi would not recognize her. Although her appearance in that room was entirely the fault of the music box, she could not tell the truth. If she was then convicted of trespassing, she would be in big trouble.

Apparently, luck was willing to spare her life, for on the way back, the Cloud Cavalry next to Jingliu had already left.

Jingliu in the yard was waiting for someone to come back. When she saw Jingyuan successfully bring another person in through the gate obediently, and even remembered to close the gate after entering, she nodded with satisfaction.

"Now, we can continue our conversation." Jing Liu looked at her calmly, "First, tell me who you are."

"My name is Cheng An. As you can see, I'm just an ordinary Pure Knight. Even a newcomer who joined not long ago. I joined the Pure Knights thanks to the care of another senior Pure Knight." Cheng An answered honestly.

"To be honest, I was already in Luofu as soon as I opened my eyes. I didn't even know why I was here." Of course, the part where the music box spoke was omitted.

You absolutely can't tell me this! The music box is asleep now, there is no evidence, and telling me this would just be digging a hole for myself, so I might as well not mention it.

Jing Yuan and Jing Liu looked at each other and saw confusion and doubt in each other's eyes.

"Then why did you raid my master's yard?" Jing Yuan asked.

Cheng An said in an aggrieved tone, "Because when I woke up, I was in the room next to yours, and there were Cloud Cavalry soldiers at the door, ready to come in and arrest me. I couldn't explain myself clearly, so I climbed out the window and jumped from the windowsill to the nearest wall, which is this small courtyard."

"I'm really not a bad person. I didn't cause any damage or steal anything. We pure knights never do such things."

I joined the Pure Knights in order to increase my credibility in this situation, but I didn't expect it to be used so soon.

Should we say that she had foresight or that it was fate?

"Come to think of it, you have such powerful strength, why didn't you get rid of Jing Yuan, but instead walked him for nearly three blocks?" Jing Liu asked again, his tone seeming to carry some temptation and deep thought.

Cheng An: "First of all, I definitely didn't mean it!" She was the first to state that she didn't have this kind of "he chases, she runs away" hobby.

She couldn't say that she had just experienced the power of pure beauty and it was so exciting that she let herself go a little bit, right? Wouldn't that sound like a provocation?

"Because I couldn't find anywhere to hide, I kept running."

Jing Yuan frowned when he heard this: "But you clearly dodged all my moves. When I speed up, you speed up too. When I slow down, you slow down too. Is this really not your intention?"

This was a huge misunderstanding. The automatic speed adjustment was only because she relied on Chunmei's power to turn on the automatic gear of her body. Maybe Chunmei's original power felt that this distance was enough to protect her from being caught, so she kept this distance. She herself had no idea what Jingyuan was doing behind her.

"I really don't know. I was moving at a similar speed. I dodged your moves because I heard the sound of the wind when your sword flew towards me. You must be tired so it's an illusion, right?" This is a sophistry.

"Oh? Did you just hear the sound of the sword?" Jingliu is worthy of being Jingliu, he is more interested in these aspects.

"I taught Jing Yuan swordsmanship myself. I know his moves well. After several years of practice, the enemy should not be able to react in time even if they hear the sound." As she spoke, she turned to look at her apprentice, "Are you lazy?"

"Disciple, no." How could he possibly bear the risk of extra training to be lazy with a little thief! If he was going to be lazy, he couldn't be lazy at such a critical moment.

Jingliu nodded slightly. He had also seen Jingyuan attacking him, and it didn't seem like he was letting him win, so that was this guy's problem.

Her eyes suddenly became stern, and she drew her sword and swung it with great swiftness, launching a normal attack at Cheng An. Her speed was so fast that before Jing Yuan had time to be surprised, his master had already rushed over with the sword.

Cheng An felt her scalp tingling. Before she could see what was happening in front of her, she was pulled to the side by a force. Seeing that she was about to hit the ground headfirst, she quickly supported herself with her hands, leaned back, bent down and then stood up.

The moment she stood up, she felt her heart beating violently and her heart rate soared.

Because when she looked up, she saw Jingliu's sword passing over her face. It was a slash, but she dodged it because it was a horizontal slash. Before that, Jingliu stabbed her straight, but thanks to the force that pulled her down, she was able to avoid it.

She came back to her senses and looked at Jingliu, and gasped.

Fortunately, she had the power of pure beauty to dodge automatically! Otherwise, she wouldn't even have seen the Prison of Hell just now!

"What are you doing? You don't hand me over to other Cloud Cavalry soldiers because you plan to kill me right here?" Cheng An's voice was a little shaky. What a joke, Jing Liu's sword, if you can't dodge it, you will really die, who wouldn't be scared when seeing it?

In fact, Jing Yuan was also stunned. He didn't understand why his master suddenly attacked and hurt people. With this posture, Jing Liu just casually stabbed her with a sword when she was sitting on the courtyard wall. This time she was serious.

Jing Liu suddenly jumped up and for the first time ever showed a smile. He ignored Cheng An's frightened expression and nodded with satisfaction.

Little did Jing Liu know that he was thinking of a sudden idea: this person was still unharmed at her speed, he was powerful, had a good foundation, skills, and stamina. In addition, his identity as a pure knight was confirmed by the pure token, so he must not be a bad person.

What a good seedling.

"...Lord Swordsman?" Don't tell me that he was possessed by a demon at such a young age. Even Jing Liu would be scared of such a scary person.

"Do you want to learn sword from me?" Jingliu asked her unexpectedly.

"Huh?" was her answer.

"You possess great strength; you have quick reactions and were able to dodge my speed; you also have good endurance. You are very suitable for learning martial arts." Jingliu explained his actions in detail for the first time.

"So, in order not to waste your good talent, how about learning swordsmanship from me?"

Cheng An showed no reaction on the surface, but in fact his jaw dropped in shock.

"Ah? Me?" She seemed to have been sighing like this since she came to this world. "Am I suitable for learning martial arts? Seriously?" She was a loser who could only run 800 meters just a second before the passing line, so she wanted to learn swordsmanship?

What kind of strength did Jingliu have in his eyes? He probably mistook the automatic dodge for a performance by a master of Qinggong.

"This is a misunderstanding, sir!" she screamed in her heart.

"Don't you want me to hand you over to other Cloud Cavalry? If you don't want to go to the Youyu Prison with the Cloud Cavalry to cooperate with the investigation, let us verify it. If you learn sword from me, you will be the apprentice of the Sword Master. I will naturally judge whether you will become an enemy of Xianzhou Luofu." Jingliu added.

Her original intention was that learning sword from her would not only prevent the Cloud Cavalry from misunderstanding him, but would also give him a perfect identity. But she ended up saying it like a threat.

"If you have nowhere to go and no patrol, you can work for the Cloud Cavalry and the Diheng Division as my apprentice and get paid."

A familiar routine: first praise the potential, then talk about the conditions, and finally give a sweet treat.

I really want to ask Jingliu if he recognizes the consciousness in her music box.

That consciousness had promised her that she could even get meals if she followed it, but in the end it fell asleep without telling her where Xundi was. If the pure beauty power wasn't really useful, she would have given up and refused to cooperate long ago.

Back to the point, following Jingliu is equivalent to having a job and an identity. Even if it is eventually discovered that she is a person with no background and no information, for the sake of Jingliu and Jingyuan, they probably won't kick her out of Luofu.

In addition, Cheng An completely believed in the character of Jing Liu and Jing Yuan, so she didn't have to worry about these two people harming her. In addition to the fact that she might be exhausted from practicing sword skills, she could probably use the automatic mode to ensure her survival.

Even the mirror flow did not restrict her personal freedom of movement, nor did it set any requirements for her to meet. This was much better than the music box.

This seems to be a real bargain!

Cheng An decided to agree readily.
