He sighed, helped them up one by one, and stroked his beard, saying, "Don't worry, Jiang Yueming is a man who loves talent. He wouldn't really waste such a rare genius. But you, don't rush in and cause trouble for him. If you do, I will be really worried."

Jiang Yueming is not someone who is easy to get along with.

Thinking of this, he opened the half-open courtyard door completely and waved inside: "An'er, come out and meet your senior brothers and sisters."

Si Chuan, Fu Wennian and Luo Qingan all opened their eyes wide.

An'er?

Master has found them another junior disciple?

......................................................

The air after the rain was clear and still filled with the smell of wet grass. The sound of dripping water kept lingering in my ears. In the distance, a fish suddenly jumped out of the water, disturbing the ripples in the pond.

Nearby, the delicate willow leaves swayed in the wind, and the water droplets on the treetops rolled down, crushing the starlight in the night.

The warm touch lingered on her cheek, and Jiang Li frowned slightly in her unconscious state. Deep in her dream, she seemed to be searching in vain for a ray of light.

With nowhere to go and nowhere to return, she is always a lonely soul with no one caring about her.

"Sister..."

Someone was calling her from far away.

Gentle fingertips gently stroked the corners of her wet eyes.

When I opened my eyes, all I saw was pitch black.

In a cave that is neither too big nor too small.

A bonfire flickered at the entrance of the cave, occasionally emitting a spark. At the junction of darkness and light, a figure sat quietly.

Jiang Liqian looked hard for a long time before she could see the man's face clearly in the dim light.

With red lips and white teeth, handsome eyebrows and eyes, his straight figure blends into the night wind, like a pine or a cypress, making people forget the world when they see him.

He was wrapped in a dark purple robe, looking like a peach blossom that had bloomed to its fullest and fallen from a branch, but he always treasured the obsession in his heart that was as bright as the stars.

The sky and earth were vast, and everything was silent. His figure seemed to have fallen into the vast galaxy.

Addiction or sinking?

He didn't seem to care.

In a trance, she seemed to see her own shadow in him.

I feel lonely and desolate, and I don’t know the way home. I have been walking in the long night for a long time, and I am already exhausted both physically and mentally.

But when he heard the noise and looked sideways, at that moment, it was as bright as the clear moon and as bright as fluorite.

She stopped breathing.

His eyes were so pure, so pure that they could be seen through to the bottom without a trace of impurities. Yet, they were also so deep, as if they contained countless emotions and countless unspeakable things.

You own the vast ocean, and without you, you cannot obtain it.

You have a boat, and I cannot tie it up without you.

She stared at him in astonishment, and he stared back. Silently, the world turned upside down, the seas and the earth shone. Thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, millions of years, all turned into the silent, flickering glow of a bonfire.

"Who are you?"

He stood up silently, walked to her side, and stared at her quietly with a pair of starry eyes.

"My name is Xu Youan.

"Sister."

Xu, You, An?

[Ding! The backlash value of the young master's inner demon has been reduced by 5%. The current backlash value is 51%.]

Jiang Liqian stood there in shock.

How could that be? She just said a few words to this strange young boy!

The cave fell silent again, with only Jiang Liqian staring at him blankly.

Xu Youan didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He walked to the campfire, fiddled with something for a few times, and then came over with a grilled fish.

The sizzling oil rolled down from the tender fish meat, and the whole cave was filled with the aroma of grilled fish.

Jiang Liqian's stomach growled twice, and she immediately put on some blush.

"Senior sister, do you need me to separate the meat and pick out the bones?" Xu Youan seemed not to notice her discomfort. She took out a clean empty plate from somewhere. Although she was asking her, her hands had already started to move, carefully picking out the bones from the grilled fish.

The delicate and slender fingers flew across the plate, as if doing something extremely sacred.

Jiang Liqian took a breath and subconsciously grabbed his wrist to stop him.

"I don't... don't need..."

"Sister, go a little slower. If the fish gets cold, it won't taste as good as it does now." He looked up at her calmly.

Jiang Liqian couldn't bear to look at those clear eyes, so she quickly let go of her hand and turned away.

Xu Youan didn't care at all and continued to find fault. Jiang Liqian looked around awkwardly, and after a long pause, she asked again, "Who are you?"

Xu Youan never tires of it.

"My name is Xu Youan."

Jiang Liqian was silent for a moment. "I'm asking, why... do you call me Senior Sister? Are you also a disciple of the Tianqian Sect?"

Xu Youan nodded.

"Which peak are you from?"

"Zhenfeng."

Jiang Liqian was stunned, then asked, "You are the fourth..." After a pause, "Are you the master's new disciple?"

Xu Youan hummed and pushed the plate with the fish meat cut into pieces and the fish bones picked out in front of her.

Jiang Liqian's mind was stuck for a moment.

She remembered that in her previous life, Zhen Feng had only four direct disciples. Now there was one more girl, so how come a little junior brother suddenly appeared out of nowhere?

Thinking of this, she felt a little angry.

I was finally reborn as a junior sister, but not long after, a junior brother came!

Is she destined to be someone else's senior sister?

But looking at the grilled fish in front of her without a single bone picked out, she inexplicably felt that the resentment in her heart was actually a petty thought, which made her feel embarrassed.

Jiang Liqian coughed guiltily and subconsciously put on the posture of a senior sister, asking him to go to the water to wash his hands and come over to eat together.

But after she said it, she regretted it.

After all, she couldn't really say she knew the young boy in front of her. Even if they were really senior sister and junior brother, asking him to do this and that as soon as they met was really not something a senior sister should do.

"Um, you..." She hesitated to speak.

Xu Youan didn't care at all. He listened carefully to what she said.

She didn't know what to say anymore.

Where on earth did such a well-behaved junior brother come from? Her previous junior brothers and sisters were all the kind of people who would turn against the house and tear down the tiles in just three days.

"Senior Sister." Xu Youan suddenly called her.

Jiang Liqian looked at him quickly: "What...what happened?"

"I didn't bring you back to Zhenfeng because I felt you didn't want Master and the others to worry about you. Plus, I have some medical skills, so I made the decision on my own to bring you here... Senior Sister, please don't blame me."

Jiang Liqian didn't expect that he would bring up this matter on his own initiative. The doubts that had been hanging in her heart were relieved, and she was not so tense when facing him.

It’s no wonder she’s so alert. After what happened in her previous life, she really can’t trust anyone so easily anymore.

"You saved me, and I should thank you. But I don't know why I suddenly fell into a coma."
