After the sword bone was taken away, the reborn elder sister went crazy killing

"Don't worry, I'm very reliable."

After saying this, Pei Zhiyi patted his chest to make a promise.

Gu Xizhou couldn't help laughing. Every time he was with Pei Zhiyi, he felt particularly relaxed.

Without the so-called responsibilities and troubles, if it could continue like this...

"Benefactor, is there anything important that needs to be done in the next few days?"

Pei Zhiyi shook his head and said, "I want to rest for a few days first."

Take a few days off... Gu Xizhou had an idea in his mind, and it showed on his face unconsciously, "There's a lantern festival in the capital these few nights, benefactor, do you want to come out and play?"

"Lantern Festival?"

Why is there a lantern festival when it’s not a festival?

Maybe she had never experienced it before, or maybe it was just some tradition among the human folk.

"Yes." Gu Xizhou looked at Pei Zhiyi seriously. "By then, not only humans, but also people of other races will come to participate in this lantern festival. It is considered a grand event in the capital. The lantern festival will last for five days. During these days, my benefactor can relax and have a good time."

Pei Zhiyi became interested and said, "Okay, I'll call..."

"Benefactor!" Gu Xizhou interrupted deliberately, "Benefactor, can you give me all your time these days?"

Pei Zhiyi exclaimed, suddenly feeling a little overwhelmed and confused.

"I don't mean anything else. It's just that I don't have many friends in this position." Gu Xizhou began to play the victim. "I finally met my benefactor this year. I treat him sincerely, so now I am a little greedy. I want him to accompany me for a few days, even if it's just as a friend."

How could Pei Zhiyi refuse when he said it so sincerely and pitifully?

"These are all trivial matters. I'll just accompany you."

Pei Zhiyi didn't think too much about it. He just felt that although Gu Xizhou held a high position, he was not as glamorous as outsiders thought.

"it is good."

Gu Xizhou lowered his eyes, but the smile in them lingered for a long time.

On the first day of the Lantern Festival, Pei Zhiyi received a new dress from Gu Xizhou. The skirt was peach pink and looked very tender. Pei Zhiyi subconsciously refused it.

"My benefactor, you must adapt to local customs."

Pei Zhiyi's face was filled with suspicion. "Does everyone at the Lantern Festival dress so...young?"

Gu Xizhou couldn't stop smiling, "It's not that everyone dresses so young, but girls of your age usually dress themselves up nicely."

Pei Zhiyi was unhappy about this, "You mean I usually dress ugly?"

"Of course not!"

Gu Xizhou tried to comfort her quickly, "I just, I just wanted to" I just wanted to see a different side of her. He was so stupid that he couldn't say the words when they came to his lips.

"Well." Pei Zhiyi didn't bother to embarrass Gu Xizhou. "I've never tried clothes like this before. It's nice to experience something new."

"it is good."

Pei Zhiyi asked Gu Xizhou to wait for her for a while. When she came out, it was just as Gu Xizhou had expected. The dress suited her very well and was eye-catching.

Suddenly, I didn't want to take her out anymore.

"Are you stunned?"

Gu Xizhou nodded and admitted openly, "My benefactor looks very beautiful like this."

No one doesn't like being praised by others, and Pei Zhiyi is no exception.

At this moment, I suddenly felt like I was still a little girl who had just come of age. When I put on a beautiful skirt, I would happily spin around a few times.

"Since you are dressed so beautifully, you must definitely participate in this lantern festival."

Gu Xizhou nodded and agreed, his eyes never leaving Pei Zhiyi.

The Lantern Festival in the royal capital was as lively as ever. The streets and alleys were hung with red lanterns, and colorful silks of different colors were hung on every tree. Even the moat was filled with colorful river lanterns that carried people's hopes.

"Is this the elves from Rhine City?"

Several beautiful elves passed by Pei Zhiyi, looking very smart.

"Perhaps there are elves from other places."

Gu Xizhou always followed Pei Zhiyi closely to prevent anyone from bumping into her.

Pei Zhiyi was experiencing this kind of lantern festival for the first time, and everything interested him. "Is that a mermaid? I saw the blue fin behind his ear, so beautiful."

Gu Xizhou followed Pei Zhiyi's gaze and wanted to join in the praise, but he found that Pei Zhiyi was looking at a male mermaid, and his face instantly darkened.

"Male mermaids are belligerent and aggressive, so benefactors, please don't be fooled by appearances."

Pei Zhiyi felt that Gu Xizhou's tone was strange, but after thinking that he might just be reminding her to be careful, she didn't think too much about it. "No matter how belligerent and aggressive he is, if I really provoke him, I will kick him back into the sea."

Gu Xizhou was amused by Pei Zhiyi. Under the lantern candlelight, his eyes sparkled. "That's right, benefactor."

This street in the royal capital is very long and interconnected. You can't see the end even if you walk for a long time.

"Oh my god! Pei Zhiyi!"

Pei Zhiyi moved her ears, she seemed to hear her own name in this noisy crowd.

Gu Xizhou looked over in the direction of the voice, and when he saw the sect uniform the other person was wearing, his brows furrowed.

If I remember correctly, this is Jian Xuetian's disciple.

As for Pei Zhiyi, Gu Xizhou looked at Pei Zhiyi with some worry, "Benefactor, they..."

Pei Zhiyi tilted his head and looked at those people. They looked at him with shock.

That's right, they should be shocked that she is still standing here.

"Brother Mo, why didn't you tell us she was still alive?"

Mo Huaizhi also saw Pei Zhiyi and wanted to say something, but the voices of his junior brothers and sisters were too noisy, so he could only patiently answer their questions.

"This is exactly what I wanted to report to Master this time. I'll tell you in detail when we get back to the inn."

"it is good."

Jian Xuetian's disciples left, looking back every few steps.

"The benefactor just let them go like that?"

In Gu Xizhou's eyes, these were all people who had hurt Pei Zhiyi, and he wished he could skin them alive.

Pei Zhiyi raised his lips and smiled, "Today is a good day, I don't want to kill them. And even if I don't go looking for them, they will naturally come to me."

"My active provocation and passive defense are two different things."

Gu Xizhou understood and handed Pei Zhiyi a candied haws. "Then my benefactor, enjoy the Lantern Festival tonight and don't think about those noisy flies."

Pei Zhiyi took the candied haws and asked, "When did you buy it?"

"just."

Pei Zhiyi didn't believe it. "Your every move was clearly within my sight. How come I didn't see you buy it?"

"My benefactor has been paying attention to me just now?"

It is obvious that Gu Xizhou and Pei Zhiyi's focus is not on the same line of thought at all.

"I must keep an eye on you," Pei Zhiyi said seriously. "Although the Lantern Festival is lively, it is also a mixed bag. As the Imperial Master, you are in poor health. If someone with bad intentions wants to assassinate you at this time, it will be very easy to succeed."
