The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today

"Ah"

Inside the carriage, Jiang Yingxue frowned slightly, and suddenly felt her nose itchy, and she sneezed unexpectedly.

The cool breeze from outside the window made her slightly curly hair flutter in the wind, giving her a lazy beauty.

Cui Yu, who was standing by, quickly closed the curtains and put a dress on her, saying jokingly, "Miss, I heard that sneezing is caused by people missing you. Tell me, is it His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who misses you?"

"How is that possible?" Jiang Yingxue scratched her nose lightly. "That guy doesn't like me, so it's strange that he would miss me."

"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince always gives you gifts during festivals, but you are the only one who gets one. I think he must have you in his heart."

Jiang Yingxue said slowly, "Those were just things the Empress prepared for him. Shen Yun cares about the common people, so he wouldn't care about love affairs."

Cui Yu tilted her head and sighed, "I wonder how His Royal Highness will react when he learns you have a terminal illness. Miss, you love His Royal Highness so much, but now you're away for four years to cultivate. Aren't you worried that things will be different when you return... or that His Royal Highness will fall in love with someone else?"

"Honestly..." Jiang Yingxue leaned against the window, "I don't think I like him as much as I thought. I used to be a little obsessed with him, but now I don't care. Nothing is more precious than my life."

Well, compared to losing his life, what's wrong with practicing for four years?

Three days later, when they arrived at the foot of Xianyun Sect's mountain, it was already early morning.

It was still dark, leaving only a bright moon in the sky. Thin clouds, like a piece of silk smudged with ink, floated lightly in the deep night sky, unable to obscure the rich moonlight.

The Xianyun Sect was located on the top of a group of mountains. Cuiyu looked up and saw the peaks towering into the clouds, with no end in sight. "Miss, how are we going to get up there? Are we going to have to climb up? Will that cost us our lives?"

Jiang Yingxue had already established her foundation and was fully capable of flying up the mountain on her sword. However, even her personal maid was unaware of her foundation-building efforts.

"Cui Yu, I remember that Xianyun Sect has a rule that only disciples can enter, not even personal maids. You can just send me here, then you can go back."

Cuiyu had never seen such a sensible young lady. In her impression, she would never sit if she could lie down, and would never stand if she could sit. Now that she was terminally ill, she still wanted to climb such a high mountain. Could she really do that?

"Are you...sure?"

Jiang Yingxue frowned her beautiful eyebrows and said, "How about you accompany me to the top of the mountain and then come down?"

Cuiyu swallowed, her legs trembling as she looked at the mountain. She forced herself to act decisively, "I'll accompany you. If you can't walk anymore halfway up the mountain, I'll... I'll... risk my life to carry you up..."

Jiang Yingxue held her forehead, her gesture revealing a sense of helplessness and forbearance. Just as she was hesitating whether to reveal her ability to fly a sword, she noticed a man preparing to fly a sword not far away.

It's like someone gave you a pillow just because you were sleepy.

She quickly lifted up her skirt and hurried forward.

She used her usual begging tricks, staring at the other person with her bright eyes. Her voice was as soft as water, with a hint of coquettishness and pleading, "Young Master, wait a moment, are you going to the Xianyun Sect?"

The young master turned his head upon hearing the voice and unexpectedly met Jiang Yingxue's eyes.

In an instant, the handsome young man's face turned red.

"me..."

He hesitated for a long time, finally lowered his head and nodded.

"Would it be convenient for you to give me a ride? I'm Jiang Yingxue, the daughter of the Loyal and Brave Marquis of Yun State. I'm also planning to go to the Immortal Cloud Sect to participate in the competition. Unfortunately, my body is weak and frail, and I can't even climb this mountain." After saying this, Jiang Yingxue coughed twice, like a delicate white lotus swaying in the wind, looking pitiful. "I wonder if you can..."

Seeing the girl introduce herself, the man quickly responded: "Hello, my name is Cen Yizi. I am..."

Cen Yizi stuttered, as if something was stuck in his throat. He hesitated for a long time and didn't know how to continue introducing himself.

Seeing this, Cui Yu couldn't help laughing.

Yes, it is normal for men to blush and become speechless with excitement when they see such a beautiful lady.

But Jiang Yingxue knew that he didn't stutter because he was beautiful.

After all, she had read the original novel and still remembered the character Cen Yizi.

But this guy's fate was even worse than mine. If I played the brainless villain card in the original work, then this guy played the brainless bootlicker card.

Born into a family of beast tamers, he was a renowned swordsman. However, due to his family's overprotective nature, he was confined to his courtyard for long periods of time, practicing swordsmanship and taming beasts, rarely interacting with outsiders. This gradually led to his shy and introverted personality, which would blush at the slightest touch of a woman.

Common name: social phobia.

After joining the sect, Cen Yizhi was often bullied because of his shyness. Furthermore, since he was fair-skinned and as pretty as a girl, the male disciples teased him even more. At this moment, the heroine Duan Ningning stepped forward to uphold justice for him. With her kindness and tenderness, she moved Cen Yizhi and won him over to her heart.

And Cen Yizi's final outcome is that he constantly contributes to the cultivation and emotional journey of the male and female protagonists, becoming the most silent bootlicker and the most aggrieved stepping stone, and finally dies of poisoning in a mission to protect the heroine.

"I..."

"Alright, sir, knowing your name is enough." Jiang Yingxue smiled and pointed at his sword. "I can tell from your face that you are a kind-hearted person. You certainly wouldn't have the heart to let a weak woman like me climb such a high mountain. Could you give me a ride?"

The book once said that Cen Yizi was a man with a strong sense of justice. Since he had said so much, he believed that the other party would not refuse.

Upon hearing this, Cen Yizi nodded vigorously as if he had received an important task.

Then, he hastily held the sword in front of him, tapped the ground with his toes, and lightly jumped onto the sword. He was about to turn and reach out to pull Jiang Yingxue up, but unexpectedly, she was faster than him. Jiang Yingxue picked up her luggage, her posture was light and seemed to be weightless. With a light leap, she stood firmly on the sword. Her movements were smooth and natural, without any trace of unfamiliarity. How could she be someone who didn't know how to wield a sword?

Cen Yizi was stunned for a moment, dumbfounded. He obviously didn't expect her to be so agile. She would definitely be a sword-wielding genius in the future!

Jiang Yingxue smiled slightly, turned to Cuiyu and said, "Cuiyu, I will follow this young master up the mountain on his sword. You can go back first."

Seeing this, Cui Yu felt relieved: "Okay, then I will go home. Miss, please take care of yourself and remember to write to us."
