After being reborn, I became the apple of my enemy's eye.

Chapter 120 Demand it from him

Jing Yue did not respond to Yan Yun's question.

He reached out and stroked the white eagle's head, but the texture felt strange. He frowned and handed the eagle back to him.

"Back to you."

Yan Yun stretched out her arm, and the white eagle immediately flew back onto it. She was no longer afraid at first; after all, the white eagle was far more endearing than a human.

Yan Yun returned the white eagle to the screen. She looked at the eagle's flawless white feathers and thought that it was because it had been well cared for that its feathers had grown so well.

"Even when the window was opened, it didn't fly away, nor was it closed, but it didn't choose to leave."

Jing crossed his arms.

He said casually, "How could a creature that has already been tamed possibly dare to fly away again?"

Jing said it casually, but it made Yan Yun think of something.

She looked at Jing Yue and responded somewhat angrily.

"I have not been tamed."

Jing Yue looked at Yan Yun, somewhat puzzled as to why she answered that question.

His sudden silence made Yan Yun realize that he had said the wrong thing.

She immediately broke the silence.

But what brings you here today?

Jing said, "It's been a while since I've seen you, so I came to check on you. Have your skills declined? I heard you're at the academy; it seems you don't want to learn martial arts anymore."

Yan Yun naturally wanted to learn martial arts. Although she didn't tell anyone else, she still trained every day according to the book Jing Yue had given her.

As Yan Yun spoke, she realized her tone had become more forceful, and she looked out the window.

There were far fewer maids patrolling outside tonight.

"How about we go out?"

Seeing Yan Yun's eager expression, Jing Yue did not agree to her request.

He just came to check and make sure Yan Yun had received the letter he sent.

When he arrived, there were more and more maids guarding the place, and even the courtyard walls had been raised considerably, making Zheng Courtyard increasingly secure.

As Yan Yun listened to his words, there was an echo in the room, and she seemed to be thinking of something else.

Yan Yun immediately pointed to the window. She slowly walked over, reached out and pushed open the window. There were no maids guarding the window like last time.

Yan Yun immediately closed the window.

Jingyue guessed her worries.

"Don't worry, they won't find me."

Hearing his certainty, Yan Yun felt even more that he had some ability.

How about we talk somewhere else?

Jing Yue grabbed Yan Yun's arm and pulled her up onto the roof beam.

Yan Yun looked at him strangely and asked the question that had been bothering him.

"How could a normal person jump from such a height?"

The height from the ground to the eaves is completely beyond what ordinary people can achieve.

Yan Yun may have tried and trained, but he could not climb those trees and scale the walls with the same ease as Yan Yun.

Just as Jingyue pushed aside the roof tiles, he led Yan Yun out.

The two sat on the roof.

The black eagle that landed on it immediately spread its wings and took flight.

Because the eagle suddenly spread its wings without warning, Jing Yue was startled. He hadn't expected there to be such a creature here. In his fright, he looked up at the eagle.

Yan Yun saw the movement clearly and immediately grabbed his hand.

"Don't hurt her."

The object that flew out of Jingyue's hand hit the tile with a "smack".

Yan Yun immediately looked at the tile, which was already shattered into pieces, as if it had been hit by something.

The black eagle had already taken flight and was far away from them.

Jingyue looked at Yanyun in confusion, "Why is there another one here?"

Yan Yun wasn't entirely sure either. She had only heard Lu Shan say that when they brought the white eagle back, the black eagle had been following behind and had come back with them.

Yan Yun spoke of it in a very casual manner.

Jing Yue turned his gaze to the sky, staring at the black eagle for a moment, before he could even ask a question.

Yan Yun asked him with a puzzled look, "Why can you jump up so easily, but I can't?"

Jing said, "You really can't jump directly." As he spoke, he pulled open his long sleeves, revealing something that looked like wristbands on his hands.

The thing wrapped around his arm; it seemed to be something else entirely. Yan Yun found it strange and moved even closer.

Her hand braced against Jingyue's thigh, just as she was about to reach out and touch him.

Jing Yue stood up and pulled Yan Yun away.

He reached out to show the mechanism hidden in his arm, pulled out a steel needle, tossed it in his hand, and then held it in his hand again.

"Just pull this out and throw it at the place you want to go, and you can use it to climb up directly."

Yan Yun thought he was so powerful because of his martial arts skills, but it turns out he also relied on these tools.

Yan Yun wanted to reach out and touch it.

Jing stopped her from having the idea.

"It will hurt your hand."

Jing Yue not only showed off his weapon, but also told Yan Yun that it was not only for scaling walls and roofs, but also for attacking.

Yan Yun pointed to the shattered tiles and asked Jing, "Was that the one that flew out just now?"

Jing Yue nodded.

Yan Yun looked at it more carefully.

She looked at the thing on Jingyue's arm, then suddenly looked up at Jingyue's face and asked an unexpected question.

Do you know Nan Yunjing?

Jing Yue was slightly taken aback, and immediately asked Yan Yun with some curiosity, "Who are you talking about?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Yun asked himself in return, "If that's the case, then you don't know him."

She said casually, "If you don't know, do you think the black market can be found out?"

Jingyue was puzzled, and she asked Yanyun, "Why are you suddenly asking about this person?"

Yan Yun's eyes darted around. It wasn't sudden; she deliberately told Jing Yue about Nan Yun Jing.

Her explanation was, "Because your name is Jingyue and his name is Nanyun Jing, you both have the character 'Jing' in your name, so I'm asking you."

Jing Yue was somewhat unconvinced. He pulled down his sleeve and looked at Yan Yun, "Judging whether someone recognizes something based on the characters? There's no basis for that at all. You need to study harder and stop thinking about these useless things all day."

Jing Yue's sudden lecturing made Yan Yun feel that he had changed.

He even said, "I thought you would be in a bad mood today because your father is taking a concubine, but I didn't expect you to be so happy."

Yan Yun naturally didn't have any suicidal thoughts, after all, he had everything now and could have whatever he wanted.

Yan Yun reached out her hand and looked at Jing Yue, pleading, "Could I see this in your hand?"

Jing refused outright.

"You want it from me? I'll give it to you, no way. You really have a bad habit of being a rich young lady."

He refused bluntly, which made Yan Yun feel somewhat awkward.

However, Yan Yun did not give up.

"Can I buy it?"

Do you think I'm short of money?

"Then I'll just take it."

As Yan Yun spoke, she reached out her hand to Jing Yue, as she had wanted to test her skills earlier.

Now is a good opportunity. Jing Yue is a rare master. By exchanging a few moves with him, Yan Yun can also learn how to advance further.

That was Yan Yun's thought, but when she took action...

Jing said he was not going to take action.

It was already unsafe on the roof, and the tiles had already been moved by her, so when she saw Yan Yun's movements, Jing Yue immediately reminded her not to move around recklessly.

Before Yan Yun could even listen, she rushed towards Jing Yue and lost her footing, falling straight down through the gap.

Jing Yue immediately followed, pulled up his long sleeves, stuck the steel needle into a wooden pillar, and jumped down directly towards Yan Yun.

He whispered to Yan Yun, "Hold my hand."

Yan Yun looked at the distance; it was too late.

Careless.

"catch."

Yan Yun looked at the fallen belt and, as if it were a lifeline, immediately grabbed it.

As Jing Yue stopped moving, he grabbed Yan Yun's hand.

Just as Jingyue steadied himself.

Yan Yun looked up at the roof. The light filtering through the roof revealed what supported Jing Yue and himself.

Jing said that he must have wrapped the shimmering silver threads around the roof to hold them back.

Like spider silk.
