Chapter 10, Man, you have successfully piqued my interest
If there is sunlight, it is fine; if not, in this well-ventilated courtyard, the chill suddenly intensifies
The effort and energy required are too great
In eloquent terms, it can be described as "lost in thought"; in less refined terms, it simply means to be dazed.
The days of December have indeed turned cold
When opening one's mouth, it seems as if a sense of laziness emanates from within, as if even speaking requires great effort
Subsequently, the fingers lightly tapped on the teacup
I am only afraid that it will startle me so much that my eyes will bulge out
Interesting
After Dongfang Bubai sat down, Chu Qinghe spoke up: "I saw you were sleeping soundly just now, so I didn't disturb you"
Listening to Dongfang Bubai, Chu Qinghe leisurely spoke while playing with the teacup in his hand: "Sometimes, the more things one holds in their heart, the more one needs to find a balance. If a string is pulled too tight, it will eventually break."
Therefore, it is somewhat surprising to Dongfang Bubai that he could sleep so soundly today
Although their time together was merely half a day, the feelings that Chu Qinghe evoked in Dongfang Bubai were particularly special and complex
In an instant, this droplet of water shot out and landed on the face of Qu Feiyan, who was lying on the lounge chair
After a moment, as if recalling something, Dongfang Bubai slightly raised the corner of his mouth for an instant, then withdrew his gaze. He then picked up the teacup again, gently blowing on it, causing a noticeable mist to rise.
Here, observing the little girl's reaction, Chu Qinghe raised his eyebrows slightly
Dongfang Bubai said softly: "Although that is the case, once a person becomes accustomed to relaxation, it is not a good thing."
At this moment, the Invincible East in the courtyard also slowly opened his eyes
Upon hearing this, the young girl yawned and then slowly got up
As the droplets of water slowly slid down the delicate face of Qu Feiyan, her skin remained unscathed, while Dongfang Bubai watched with narrowed eyes
In terms of this level of control alone, even Dongfang Bubai would not dare to claim superiority over Chu Qinghe
In the words of Chu Qinghe, the mindset of Dongfang Bubai at this moment is "Man, you have successfully piqued my interest"
Everything comes at a cost
Moreover, before a martial artist enters the innate realm, they cannot separate their internal energy from their body
If there were members of the Sun Moon Holy Cult present at this moment, they would be astonished to see the once notorious Dongfang Bubai, known for his fearsome reputation, now enjoying a tranquil moment, drinking tea and admiring flowers with a man.
When she finally sat up with sleepy eyes, Chu Qinghe lazily said, "The sun has already set; if you sleep any longer, you probably won't be able to sleep tonight."
It is said that outsiders watch the excitement, while insiders observe the intricacies
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe spoke softly, "It is also good to relax occasionally"
As a droplet of water clings to Chu Qinghe's fingertip, the internal energy circulates, and with a flick of his finger, the droplet is sent flying.
Looking at Qu Feiyan, who was still sound asleep, Chu Qinghe gently shook his head
At the age of 10, he was able to enter the mid-stage of the Grandmaster realm and become the leader of the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
After taking a few sips of the same cooled tea, Dongfang Bubai remarked with a hint of sigh, "It has indeed been a long time since I have enjoyed such leisure as today"
However, at the moment of opening his eyes, Dongfang Bubai felt a chill in his heart, and then suddenly sat up.
Do these two people actually know each other
In response to this, Chu Qinghe was not angry; he raised his gaze slightly to observe the petals dancing in the air.
Although the world of rivers and lakes is appealing, being truly immersed in it will inevitably lead to the development of certain habits
Under various sensations, Dongfang Bubai could not help but have the thought of wanting to unveil the thin veil surrounding Chu Qinghe's body to further understand this man
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Bubai also remained silent, quietly sitting in the courtyard with Chu Qinghe, savoring the flowers.
After a moment of calming down in his heart, Dongfang Bubai finally withdrew his gaze from Qu Feiyan and gently scanned the courtyard.
Yet, there is an added sense of tranquility that is absent in the Sun and Moon Holy Cult
Gradually empty the mind, entering into a special state
Unless the cultivated technique is special
What can be expressed in words carries a subtle sense of detachment, as if one has seen through the mundane world and transcended it.
However, when Qu Feiyan took a few steps towards Chu Qing, and her gaze glanced at Dongfang Bubai beside Chu Qinghe, for some unknown reason, the little girl suddenly trembled, and her entire being instantly became alert.
As Chu Qinghe's words entered his ears, Dongfang Bubai's eyes flickered slightly, yet he did not respond
However, when interacting, it gives a comfortable feeling
While sensing the changes within his body through the internal energy of Chu Qinghe, it was unclear whether it was due to the perception of the internal energy fluctuations from Chu Qinghe or some other reason
In response, Dongfang Bubai chuckled softly, finding his interest in Chu Qinghe even greater.
For instance, if one sleeps too deeply, perhaps one day, they will no longer be able to open their eyes again
For Dongfang Bubai, these years have been spent either in relentless cultivation or secretly planning for the future
The rank of its cultivation method is undoubtedly not low
After a brief moment of contemplation, Chu Qinghe seemed to realize something, as his eyelids twitched slightly
Having finished speaking, he dashed into the kitchen
Upon seeing Chu Qinghe sitting by the stone table at this moment, Dongfang Bubai also rose and walked towards Chu Qinghe
After a short while, as she set down the teacup in her hand, Dongfang Bubai's gaze suddenly turned to her side, landing on Chu Qinghe's handsome face, and a hint of curiosity inevitably appeared in her eyes
On the other side, with the prick of a droplet of water from the Chu Qing River, the little girl's eyelashes fluttered gently twice before she finally opened her eyes
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Bubai gently nodded and said, "No problem"
Only when the gaze focused and clearly saw Qu Feiyan still lying on one side did Dongfang Bubai, realizing it belatedly, finally relax again
Having spoken, Dongfang Bubai raised his right hand slightly. As his five fingers curled into claws, a surge of true energy erupted, and the teacup belonging to Dongfang Bubai, located several meters away on a small table, was drawn into his hand.
With the martial arts cultivation of Dongfang Bubai, it is evident that Chu Qinghe's recent maneuver demonstrates an astonishingly precise control over his internal energy
When silent, it gives a gentle and understated impression
On a lazy and leisurely afternoon like today, basking in the sun indeed feels so distant that even Dongfang Bubai has forgotten this sensation
However, at the moment the droplets of water fell on Qu Feiyan's face, the energy and internal force that had been concentrated within the droplets were completely exhausted
Recalling the previous reaction of Qu Feiyan, Chu Qinghe suddenly turned his head to glance at Dongfang Bubai, who appeared calm and composed, with eyes observing the nose and the nose observing the heart
In the next moment, Qu Feiyan, who was standing still, lightly coughed and said: "Ah, it's almost dark, I will go prepare dinner"
Hmm?
The person still carries a hint of drowsiness, clearly indicating that the mind has not yet fully awakened.
Moreover, the incense that was previously taken out, which could calm the mind and enhance a martial artist's aptitude, seemed to envelop Chu Qinghe in a layer of mist, adding an air of mystery to him
Even for someone like Dongfang Bubai, one never dares to sleep too soundly
