My sister is Luna

"Ahem, uh, well, okay, I'll pay you back."

Pei Qinhu faced the waiter holding a wilted flower, his face stern and his eyes burning. Upon closer inspection, he realized he had chosen the most expensive flowerpot. His lips twitched, and he scratched his head rather awkwardly.

Seriously, you ruined such a solemn atmosphere. Can't you even consider the occasion? Is this guy some greenhorn who just arrived?

Pei Qinhu muttered to himself.

"Here you go." But he still generously handed the money to the waiter, who then left with a beaming smile.

Pei Qinhu felt a pang of heartache; he had wasted money. Next time he lost a bet, he would choose the cheapest option.

Cain pursed his lips, turned his head to the side, suppressing the urge to smile.

The other spectators smiled knowingly, and this amusing scene added a touch of joy to the air.

"Hehe..." Pei Qinhu chuckled and scratched his head. He had been a bit reckless in keeping his bet, but the straightforward man did not regret it, nor did he feel upset or unhappy. He could feel the goodwill of the audience.

The atmosphere among the group gradually became more harmonious. They felt that Cain and Pei Qinhu had suddenly become more approachable, no longer the awe-inspiring martial arts masters they looked up to, but ordinary people with joys and sorrows just like them.

This was just a fun little interlude; the main topic is about to begin.

"Now, please welcome our champion of this competition—Kain!" the host announced loudly.

The audience welcomed Cain with thunderous applause.

Cain stood on the stage and nodded slightly to the audience watching him.

"Well done, Cain!" Pei Qinhu, sitting in the audience, cheered and clapped, seemingly even happier than Cain himself.

He had completely put the loss and the money he had just lost out on behind him, and was genuinely happy for his new friend. After all, his friend was a straightforward person, and all he needed to do now was offer his blessings.

"Then let's see what prize he deserves!" The host guided the atmosphere, revealing a mysterious smile.

As grand music played, a tall, slender woman carrying an antique wooden box with gold trim gracefully walked onto the stage.

The young woman bowed slightly, then slowly opened the ancient wooden box. At the same time, a burst of bright light burst out from it, dazzling everyone's eyes.

As the light faded, the contents were revealed: a uniquely shaped sky-blue dagger and thirty neatly arranged inscriptions.

"Thanks to the Heluo Limited Chamber of Commerce for their sponsorship, here is a life-saving artifact, the famous sword Siming, and a set of level 5 inscriptions: ten level 5 blue hunting inscriptions, ten level 5 green eagle eye inscriptions, and ten level 5 orange calamity inscriptions. Now these are yours, Cain. Congratulations."

The host took the half-open antique wooden box from the tall woman and solemnly handed it to Cain.

The musicians around them played their instruments, and the solemn award ceremony music played at the right time, giving the audience a sense of ceremony.

"It really is the legendary sword 'Siming' and a set of level 5 inscriptions! Ah, I never thought I would see such treasures in my lifetime. I can die without regrets!"

"Damn it, what? I don't have it! I want it too!"

Some sighed, some envied, and some were jealous. The people in the audience discussed among themselves, each with their own opinions and thoughts.

"Don't look so pathetic. If you want something, you should work hard for it yourself. That's the right way." Pei Qinhu's reaction was calm, but his tone also carried a warning to those who coveted it with ill intentions.

Pei Qinhu didn't care much about these things that others valued. He participated in the competition only for that dance with a different meaning, and that was his only simple purpose. But since he didn't achieve it, he would try again next time.

The awards ceremony ended quickly, and people began to disperse, but they were still talking about what had happened that day with great interest, indicating that it had indeed had a significant impact on them.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell or injured anywhere?" Cain asked as soon as she met up with Shangguan Wan'er.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Cain from left to right, her tone seemingly containing a hint of worry.

"Oh, don't worry, I'm perfectly healthy."

"I'm not worried about you. I'm just afraid that if something happens to your health, it will cause trouble for Dr. Sun. I'm not worried about you at all." Shangguan Wan'er's face was slightly red.

“Yes, yes, you’re not worried,” Cain said, going along with her.

Girls always have moments when they say one thing but mean another. He had encountered this before. When his younger sister was little, she would sometimes have a cute, haughty demeanor. So, when this happened, all he had to do was go along with her and never make her angry. Although she was cute when she was angry and puffed up, Cain felt completely helpless and guilty when faced with her big, teary eyes after playing too much.

"Good to know." Just as her experience had predicted, Shangguan Wan'er smiled with satisfaction, and then said:

"By the way, the Famous Blade of Fate will take effect as long as it's worn, but what about the inscriptions? How do you plan to use them?"

“This set of inscriptions suits me very well, so I installed it on my weapon. I don’t want to have anything strange inside my body.”

Inscriptions can be attached to weapons or to a person's body. When attached to a weapon, they can transmit feedback to the body through the weapon. When attached to the body, they act directly on the body. Attaching them is simple, but removing them is somewhat troublesome. Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages. Inscriptions can be a tool for becoming stronger, or they can be a constraint that prevents progress. It depends on the individual's wishes.

"Alright, let's go have dinner and see the lantern parade in Chang'an at night." Just as Cain was about to leave, someone called out to him.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Cain," the host called out to him.

"Is there something you need?" Cain turned around.

"You still have one reward to claim."

"What reward? I've already claimed them all."

"It's a private meeting with our two top stars, and we hope you'll do us the honor of attending," the host said.

"Uh, I guess we won't need that." Cain was a little hungry, and since he was in a good mood today, he wanted to go out for a big meal.

"Kain, go." Pei Qinhu walked over, a smug smile on his face, and whispered in Kain's ear:

"Actually, I know Ali and the others. Let me introduce you."

Cain knew, but he didn't say anything, feigning surprise.

“I’ll go with you,” said Shangguan Wan’er, who was dressed as a man.

"To be received by two top beauties is an immense blessing. Brother Kai, how about we go and admire them together?" Shangguan Wan'er said confidently, patting Kai's shoulder in a masculine tone.

"Is that okay?" Cain asked the host.

"These two gentlemen are your friends, right? Of course, if you're willing, you can have them," the host said with a smile.

"Let's go then." With that, Shangguan Wan'er took the lead and walked onto the stage. This handsome and elegant "young master" won the hearts of many female dancers along the way, who secretly flirted with her.

Kain and Pei Qinhu followed closely behind.
