Chapter 21: There's something wrong with this body!
"Does Young Master Wei not care about what others think and say?"
"As Miss Luo herself said, he's just another person. Since he's just another person, what does it matter to me how he views or criticizes me?"
"But it's not just others, there are also those around Young Master Wei, such as... the Ninth Princess who is already married to Young Master Wei." Luo Huanxi said, watching Wei Wuxian's expression change.
Wei Wuxian remained silent for a moment.
"Miss Luo, do you think the act of getting married itself is more important, or the person you marry is more important?"
"Of course, the married person is more important," Luo Huanxi replied after thinking carefully.
"Everything has its order of priority. If the person you marry is more important, shouldn't you choose the one you love first?"
"That's right..." Luo Huanxi asked tentatively, "Does Young Master Wei have someone he admires? But not the Ninth Princess?"
"I don't have anyone in mind, I'm just saying this for the sake of saying it."
Wei Wuxian shook his head: "The point isn't with me, but with the Ninth Princess. Miss Luo, do you think the Ninth Princess has feelings for me?"
"Judging from the rumors circulating outside... it doesn't seem to be the case."
"So, Miss Luo, why do you think the Ninth Princess is willing to marry me?"
Wei Wuxian sighed softly and answered to himself, "It's nothing more than a marriage alliance between families. Perhaps Miss Yunyi thinks that marrying me would benefit Great Wei and the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, which is why she's willing to sacrifice herself."
"So I asked Miss Luo right from the start whether the act of getting married itself was more important, or the people getting married were more important."
"Clearly, for the Ninth Princess, the marriage itself is more important."
"Since I'm not that important, then her way of looking at me and her thoughts about me are also not that important."
Luo Huanxi frowned slightly: "That's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"Reason is the constant way, and facts are the reality; they cannot be generalized."
"Miss Luo is right, but in the end, the person in front of you is not the one you love. If the Ninth Princess really likes me, she will not let my reputation diminish her affection. At most, she will be disappointed."
If the Ninth Princess doesn't like me, she certainly won't like me any more because of my reputation. At most, she'll think, "Oh, she's just misunderstood."
Since you don't like each other now, it doesn't matter even if you get married.
Luo Huanxi felt that Wei Wuxian's words made a lot of sense, but she still felt that something was not right.
After staring at the lake for a while, she suddenly turned her head and asked, "Young Master Wei, do you think the Ninth Princess might have a little bit of a crush on you?"
Wei Wuxian gave her an annoyed look: "Miss Luo, I, as the person directly involved, don't know how Ninth Miss treats me, but you, an outsider, seem to know?"
"Well......"
Wei Wuxian suddenly laughed and said, "Miss Luo seems quite interested in my private affairs."
Luo Huanxi then realized that she had probably asked too many questions.
After sitting for a while, Luo Huanxi couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Wei, which do you think is more important?"
"Both are important."
"Are they all important?"
"Of course, marrying the person you love is the most important thing. After all, marriage is basically choosing someone to live with, and how can life be the same no matter who you live with?" Wei Wuxian suddenly changed the subject as he spoke: "By the way, I'm a rather greedy person. I like to live with all the girls I love."
"you......"
"Ha ha--"
The laughter stopped abruptly. Wei Wuxian took a big gulp of the medicine, ignored Luo Huanxi, and closed his eyes.
Luo Huanxi wanted to continue chatting with Wei Wuxian, but seeing Wei Wuxian's serious and meditative expression, she also quieted down.
She glanced around, pursed her lips, and then set up a barrier to block out all the noise from outside, thus taking on the role of protector.
They waited from the bright sunshine until the sun set.
That is, when Luo Huanxi was thinking that she should also cultivate for a while out of boredom.
Suddenly.
The sky, once ablaze with crimson clouds, turned golden, and then quickly gathered into clouds, obscuring the sky above the Taoist temple in Guang'an City.
A few breaths later, golden fire rain, symbolizing military fortune, fell.
These golden fire rains seemed to have a preordained target, heading straight for Wei Wuxian by the lake behind the academy.
Golden raindrops pierced through the outer layer of clothing, striking Wei Wuxian's body with a sizzling sound.
Wei Wuxian seemed to be burning up, his bones crackling, his blood and the golden raindrops entering his body merging and consuming each other.
Soon, the golden sky returned to normal.
Luo Huanxi, who was standing to the side, didn't find this scene particularly strange.
Since Wei Wuxian has always been a hidden dragon, it is only natural that he would want to become the strongest in the world and advance to the second rank of martial artist now that he has officially embarked on the path of martial arts.
But the next second.
The strange phenomenon that had just disappeared has reappeared.
The sky turned golden once again, this time covering a wider area and with a deeper color in the condensed golden raindrops.
Luo Huanxi was slightly surprised, after all, having only broken through to the second rank of martial artist, he was already the strongest in the world, which could be considered as having a profound foundation.
But this only slightly surprised her.
Wei Wuxian, the son of a sage, has concealed his talents for so many years, so it's not surprising that he possesses such profound knowledge.
When Wei Wuxian was once again blessed with martial luck, and the golden flames attached to his body were about to go out, Wei Wuxian suddenly moved.
He still had his eyes closed, but he opened his right hand and struck several acupoints on his body with his palm very quickly!
"Snap! Thud! Thud!"
Wei Wuxian suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his whole body weakened, and at the same time, the second surge of martial luck that had just been bestowed upon him slowly flowed out, turning into gas and dissipating with the wind.
Luo Huanxi observed the subtle changes in Wei Wuxian's aura, her mind tense, ready to make a move at any moment.
Wei Wuxian's internal condition was truly appalling; his acupoints were dead, his meridians were blocked, and all his ribs were broken!
Only when Wei Wuxian opened his eyes, his face deathly pale, and smiled at her like a ghost, did Luo Huanxi finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Immediately, Luo Huanxi frowned.
This cultivation method, which bestows immense martial fortune upon one while simultaneously dispersing it, seems familiar to her.
Upon thinking of a name, Luo Huanxi's heart skipped a beat, and she held her breath, instinctively wanting to ask.
But when he turned his head, he saw that Wei Wuxian had stopped moving after gulping down several mouthfuls of medicine.
He was still holding the bowl to his lips, but his forehead was covered in fine sweat, and his breathing was extremely disordered. At the same time, his face, which had remained normal even after destroying his acupoints and enduring great pain, suddenly became ferocious.
Finally, the bowl in Wei Wuxian's hand fell to the ground with a thud.
Wei Wuxian's pale face turned red again.
He uttered his last words, almost through gritted teeth, in a hoarse voice: "Miss Luo, you go first."
"you......"
Luo Huanxi stood up, unsure whether to leave or stay.
If Wei Wuxian was indeed practicing the martial arts secrets of that grandmaster from Haozhou in the Central Plains, then the most dangerous moment had already passed.
What exactly is going on here?
Wei Wuxian had no idea what Luo Huanxi was thinking.
His consciousness was like a candle flickering in the wind; he couldn't even care about Li Jingming, who had just reached the Nascent Soul stage.
It wasn't physical pain, but a burning sensation originating from the depths of the soul!
It was exactly the same situation as before he logged in as Li Jingming.
Therefore, this is not a problem caused by a login character or a split in consciousness.
The problem lies with the body itself!
Having only managed to arrive at this one answer, Wei Wuxian's consciousness on his main body finally gave out. He managed to spare a thought for his avatar before collapsing into unconsciousness.
