Chapter 415: The Changes in Shi Xue (First Update)

"Just passing through..."

The corners of Shi Xue's mouth twitched slightly; she wanted to say something but stopped, finally shaking her head helplessly and sighing:

"Although it's unlikely for others to say this, if it's you, it's actually normal."

"Mm-hmm, as expected, you are willing to believe me... Hm?"

Ren Yidao:?

Wait, the way you said that, why do I feel like it's strange?

Is this you believing my words?

"There's no need to trouble yourself with that; Uncle has always been one not to meddle in such matters. During the last Immortal Sect Grand Competition, he was in seclusion and didn't manage it at all... Hiss!?"

Is this good brother of hers the type of person who wouldn't get involved when there's fun to be had?

Clearly, he is not.

The relationship between Ren Yidao and Shi Xue is not too bad; they had chatted about some things before, and he knew she once had a dream of being a wandering hero, wanting to witness the magnificent scenery of Beigan with her own eyes.

Sure enough, while he was growing, others were not standing still either.

Shi Xue was silent for a moment, then lifted her cup and tilted her head back, pouring it down her throat.

Still don't believe I'm a decent person, huh?

Who exactly are they?

She raised an eyebrow and turned her head to look at the two white-haired women who were burying their heads in their food nearby.

But it feels a bit unlike it.

Thud!

"Good! Snow Heroine has a massive capacity for liquor!"

"No! I must have Aunt stop him!"

Shi Xue was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what he meant by "Brother Long," she rolled her eyes at Ren Yidao.

Ren Yidao: "Any gains?"

Shi Xue immediately stood up to walk outside, but was stopped by Ren Yidao.

Ren Yidao: "Ah..."

When encountering injustices, she would definitely clash with the other party without hesitation, using her greatest efforts to eliminate evil and promote good.

Ren Yidao sized up Shi Xue for a while, nodded slowly, and a smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

Although her strength had not improved significantly, she had made long-term progress in her state of mind.

He was truly curious about how Shi Xue managed to get such a cheesy yet funny, resounding title like "Snow Heroine."

Shi Xue nodded, many scenes seeming to appear in her eyes, then she slowly shook her head:

"There are some, both big and small, but specifically... I still can't see them very clearly; I need to think about it for a while longer."

"It can't be counted as acting heroically for justice; that name 'Snow Heroine' was just coined by some meddlesome people. I actually don't like it very much."

Ren Yidao secretly curled his lip and turned to say:

Are you never going to stop taking advantage of me?

Besides, even if he really caught up, if Li Long insisted on coming, is there anyone in this world who could stop him?

Could Imperial Concubine Ran? Or could the Empress?

Unfortunately, I'm afraid neither of these two could do it.

Shi Xue shook her head, not arrogant, and said calmly:

"I am just walking, using my own feet to walk, using my own eyes to see, and then using my heart to feel."

Moreover, the attitudes of Canglan and Yaoyue also made her feel strange; one was full of wariness, while the other seemed full of curiosity about her.

"... Sigh!"

According to Ren Yidao's deduction, Shi Xue would continue to settle in the coming period, until a certain point in time, when she would accumulate to the extreme through an opportunity, and then her cultivation would explosively increase.

"I didn't walk very fast; during this time I only went to less than thirty prefecture cities, some big and some small, some remote and desolate, and some at the foot of Wentian."

When they entered the door, the three of them just nodded to greet each other and were busy catching up, so they didn't introduce their backgrounds in detail.

Previously, he had missed such an interesting grand event because of his seclusion, and now that he is not in seclusion, he certainly won't let go of this rare opportunity.

"..."

To hell with Brother Long!

"What's the rush? It's already too late for you to react now."

And with her character of hating evil as an enemy, she would inevitably encounter some problems while walking the world.

"I am not like what they think, wanting to become famous throughout the world through such righteous deeds; I just did some things I wanted to do."

Ren Yidao pressed her back into her seat, poured her a full glass of fruit juice, and sent it in front of her.

Shi Xue had changed.

She was different from the naive Constable in his memory who was ignorant of the world and would draw her sword to threaten people at every turn.

1141.74.94

Since it has reached this point, let's just give up and rot.

And when he was happy, Shi Xue did not intend to let him stay happy.

Although it was a question, Ren Yidao could actually roughly guess Shi Xue's experiences during this period.

Ren Yidao, acting as the atmosphere-setter, clapped repeatedly and cheered loudly, causing Shi Xue to roll her eyes at him again.

Heh, women.

His confidante?

As a friend, seeing the other party have such improvement, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

Whoosh.

Gulp, gulp... Ah!

Shi Xue thought for a moment and felt that Ren Yidao's words did indeed have some merit; matters had reached this point, and no matter how anxious she was, it was useless.

What kind of confidante would just keep her head down and stuff her face the whole time!

"Since we are here, we shall settle here; when soldiers come, block them with generals, when water comes, cover it with earth."

"Regarding this Immortal Sect Grand Competition, does the Imperial Court have any moves? Or rather, is Brother Long not going to intervene?"

"According to what you said last time, are you traveling the world, and incidentally acting with chivalry?"

At this moment, Shi Xue was more mature than in his impression of her.

"These two are not from Beigan, are they?"

"Matters have reached this point, don't think so much about it, let's just drink first, please."

Are you sick?

"If I haven't guessed wrong, Brother Long, he should already be on the road... or perhaps he has already arrived."

"Speaking of which, since we last parted, what have you been doing during this time?"

After the two chatted idly for a while, Ren Yidao began to ask about the serious matters on his mind.

Although he felt depressed inside, Ren Yidao did not force an argument and just let Shi Xue fill in the blanks in her own mind.

"Yes, he is not in seclusion right now."

She had less of that unrealistic innocence, no longer floating in the air, but had landed on the ground, becoming more resilient and steady.

Although this fruit juice did not contain alcohol, after one cup went down, the atmosphere really became different, and Shi Xue, having chosen to give up, was no longer so nervous, her whole person relaxing.

"Speaking of which, who are these two sisters? You haven't introduced them to me yet."

Added to her status as a County Princess, he figured that in the region governed by the Beiqian Dynasty, her safety could be guaranteed and she would not face too much of a threat.

She was indeed here, and no matter how much she explained, it was useless; she would choose to believe what she wanted to believe.

Seeing that Shi Xue finally realized the problem, Ren Yidao nodded and sighed with feigned profundity.

Ren Yidao had originally been thinking about how to introduce the identities of these two, and hearing this now, he was somewhat surprised.

"Why do you say that?"

"Perhaps you have been with them for a long time and haven't noticed, but in my view, the aura on these two sisters is quite... unusual."
