Legend of Swordsman; Xiuhuan

Bai Yuejing and Zhi Yu

“I ...” Zhi Yu fiddled with his two thumbs, nervous to express his feelings.

Xiuhuan smiled and said, “Well, it seems like we can only do a small party before we go to the Upper World of master Zhi Han!”

Xiuhuan smiled at the Moon Pavilion Leader, so Bai Yuejing felt even more pain in his chest—heard Xiuhuan say.

“Ah, which one of my lucky students is it, huh?” Xiuhuan thought for a moment.

“Anoooo ... I want to marry de—”

“It goes without saying, just think of it as a surprise hahaha ... because everyone is curious about Miss Zhi Yu's choice!” Xiuhuan interrupted Zhi Yu who was smiling wryly, because Xiuhuan suddenly sensed Bai Yuejing's existence behind the door and he found out that Bai Yuejing harbored feelings for Zhi Yu who only considered him a security guard in this Moon Pavilion alone.

Xiuhuan winked at his wife, Nie Rou to help Zhi Yu dress up in bridal attire, while Xiuhuan took Lou Er for a walk to the park next to the Moon Pavilion.

Bai Yuejing then opened the entrance and cupped his fists to show respect to Zhi Han who was smiling wryly looking at him, because he actually wanted to match up his daughter with the fiercely loyal Bai Yuejing to be the security guard at the Moon Pavilion and was always on the front line against the enemies who tried to bully Zhi Yu, but Zhi Yu did not love him instead.

Zhi Han sighed deeply as he looked at Bai Yuejing's reddened eyes, while behind him were Duan Xia and his Two children.

“Welcome to the Moon Pavilion, Miss Duan Xia!” Zhi Han instantly cupped his fists to show some respect.

Duan Xia did the same while glancing at Bai Yuejing, because he knew what he was feeling now—because he heard Zhi Yu's conversation with Xiuhuan earlier.

“I will send someone to look for a house near the Cloudy Sky Sect tomorrow, for now Miss Duan Xia is staying in our Moon Pavilion only and it just so happens that soon there will be a small party hahaha ....” Zhi Han laughed softly and looked at Bai Yuejing. “You rest and don't have to do anything else!” He knew Bai Yuejing was not eager to work anymore.

Bai Yuejing cupped his fists and immediately disappeared from the room, so Duan Yue was amazed to see him and she saw a little girl his age was playing in the flower garden with his savior.

“Mother, it's a Great God! I want to find him!” shouted Duan Yue pulled Duan Xia's hand.

“Yes, please go ahead Miss Duan and if you want to take a break, ask the Waiter to show you the room!” exclaim Zhi Han— not so show room for Duan Xia and his children.

“Sorry, Mr. Zhi. My children are very grateful to Mr. Xiuhuan, because he suddenly disappeared!” Duan Xia cupped his fists to show respect and followed Duan Yue and Duan Jiang who were racing towards Xiuhuan who was playing with Lou Er.

Zhi Han took a deep breath, he did not expect his daughter would choose to go to the Upper World. “My wife, my daughter we have grown up and she will fly away hahaha ...” Zhi looked up at the sky remembering his wife who had died a few years ago and he only had one Princess and Three Sons who were outside of Zhu Kingdom, because they led the Moon Pavilion branch there.

...***...

Bai Yuejing broke through to Zhi Yu's room, so Zhi Yu, Nie Rou, Lou Ruxu and the several Moon Pavilion female Servants were surprised to see him.

The more mature Nie Rou among them instantly gave the code for everyone to come out of the room and leave Bai Yuejing and Zhi Yu there.

“Can't be! Let them speak from heart to heart! It was possible that Sister Zhi Yu had been pretending to dislike her and the reason alone wanted to go to the Upper World for Bai Yuejing to propose to her,” said Nie Rou with a bright smile and Lou Ruxu nodded—because he finally understood a little love problem that he thought was very complicated, because all this time he had always focused on cultivating and never thought about the issue of romance.

Inside Zhi Yu's room, the two did not say a word—Bai Yuejing felt heavy to ask if Zhi Yu loved her or not.

Zhi Yu sighed deeply while combing her long, black hair, for some reason her heartbeat fluttered as Bai Yuejing stood not far from her.

“Yuu!” Bai Yuejing insisted on saying the word, even though his lips were locked and tears had fallen to the floor.

“Hmm ...” Zhi Yu did not look at him and he only looked at the shadow of his face on the small glass in his hand.

Feeling that Zhi Yu did not ignore him, Bai Yuejing walked out of the room without saying anything to Zhi Yu.

“I'm sorry Brother Bai!” muttered Zhi Yu clenched her hands, now she was confused whether to have feelings of love for Bai Yuejing or not, but somehow the shadow of Bai Yuejing's always smiling face flooded her mind.

Zhi Yu patted her face. “No-no! I want to go to the Upper World to see how vast the Universe is!” Zhi Yu threw away a strange feeling that made his heartbeat flutter unsteadily since Bai Yuejing's arrival.

While with Nie Rou, Zhi Yu asked her a lot about the Upper World and Nie Rou told her there were many Worlds in this universe, while the Underworld and the Upper World are only one piece. However, the Upper World was more special than the Underworld, as they were cultivating to become strong and live eternally, even Nie Rou told him her age had actually been hundreds of years—so Zhi Yu was surprised to hear about it and was attracted to the Upper World.

...***...

“I did not expect Lou Er to be familiar with Duan Yue hahaha Xiuhuan laughed happily seeing Lou Er finally showing a bright smile again.

Duan Xia who was sitting next to Xiuhuan tightly squeezed his clothes, then he ventured to reveal the contents of his heart that he had wanted to say since then, but he hesitated to say it.

Duan Xia kowtowed before Xiuhuan, so Xiuhuan was surprised to see him.

“What are you doing Miss Xia!” Xiuhuan pulled Duan Xia's shoulders back to stand up.

“Master Xiuhuan!” shouted Duan Xia while shedding tears. “Please take my two children to the World above with you!” he said again, because he did not want his children to bear the shame of what happened to him and he wanted them to cultivate quietly there, without worrying about anyone knowing their past.

“Eh, what does Miss Xia mean! Wouldn't you guys always be together!” Xiuhuan was surprised by Duan Xia's request.

“No-no, I have thought about it carefully and mister Xiuhuan definitely knows, I will only be a hindrance to their development later, because I am a dirty woman!” Duan Xia lowered his face, so Xiuhuan sighed deeply.

Xiuhuan looked up at the sky and looked at Duan Yue who was laughing happily with Lou Er, while Duan Jiang was staring at his mother's request to Xiuhuan. This was a very heavy decision for him to decide, whether to accept Duan Xia's request or not.
