Chapter 699: #699 - Chapter 699 Return

After Mu Qingfeng and Mu Qingyi left, Mu Qingfeng asked Mu Yunxi to entertain Li Beifei and the others, but usually, whether at home or visiting others, she was always the one being entertained. How would she know how to entertain others?

So, the thirteen-year-old Mu Yunxi appeared a bit uneasy.

"Nervous?"

Li Beifei asked.

"Yeah!"

Mu Yunxi nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook her head, "Not nervous!"

"We're not going to eat you, why are you so nervous?" Li Beifei shook his head. Logically speaking, he was so handsome, even if he wasn't universally loved, he shouldn't cause this much nervousness, right?

"Can I go play with her?"

Mu Yunxi looked at Wei Min, still bothered by the arena event. Now that her aunt was back, she could ask her to teach her swordsmanship. She wondered who her master was.

"Go ahead!"

Li Beifei said with a smile. The two were only a few years apart in age, just right to be in the same age group. He couldn't be happier that Wei Min had someone to play with.

"Thank you, Uncle!"

After saying thank you, Mu Yunxi got up from her seat and walked to Wei Min.

"Can I call you Xiao Min?"

Mu Yunxi had learned Wei Min's name during the arena competition.

"No!" Wei Min said.

"Why?" Mu Yunxi was a little disappointed.

"You have to call me Xiao Min'er. My master, my grandmaster, and my master's siblings all call me that," Wei Min said seriously.

"Xiao Min'er?" Mu Yunxi was taken aback.

"No, your tone is wrong. The 'er' sound has to be very, very light. I'll say it again, Xiao Min'er~!"

Wei Min earnestly taught Mu Yunxi how to address her.

Actually, it was simple, just a retroflex suffix. Because the nickname Xiao Min'er was created by Gu Changsheng, only he knew what a retroflex suffix was.

Wei Min taught very seriously, and Mu Yunxi learned very seriously. Before long, Mu Yunxi had learned it.

"Xiao Min'er!" Mu Yunxi tried calling out again.

"Yes, that's right," Wei Min said with a smile, "Then should I call you Sister Xiao Xi in the future?"

"If you like," Mu Yunxi said.

"Sister Xiao Xi!" Wei Min called out, her tone very sweet.

Li Beifei and the others, watching the two little girls getting along so harmoniously, had gratified smiles on their faces.

Especially Tuoba Beier, who had been keeping Wei Min by her side for the past few years. She could sense a unique loneliness in Wei Min, a loneliness she had felt before.

It was a loneliness of being alone in a vast world.

Fortunately, as time passed, this loneliness in Wei Min gradually faded away. No, rather than fading away, it was slowly hidden deep in her heart. After all, Wei Min was a very sensible child.

Because Wei Min had a unique ability to perceive, she could sense how the people around her felt about her. Although there were many people of Wei Min's age in the Gu family, precisely because it was the Gu family, they would be even more respectful to Wei Min. After all, Wei Min was their ancestor's grand-disciple, on the same level as Gu Youxian.

So even if there were peers playing with Wei Min, their respect outweighed everything else. Even if it was hidden well, Wei Min could still sense it.

It could be said that Wei Min had not yet made a friend she could truly talk to, which worried Tuoba Beier. But she couldn't stop others from respecting Wei Min, so she often took Wei Min to travel around Tianhuang Star. This time, they happened to come to Zhenmo City and heard about the arena competition, so Tuoba Beier let Wei Min go up and play.

Although she lost, seeing Wei Min so happy now made her very happy.

As the two little girls chatted, they talked about the previous arena competition again.

Mu Yunxi said, "Xiao Min'er, I really think you wouldn't have lost to me if you hadn't used the messy swordsmanship your master taught you. I definitely wouldn't be your opponent."

"Shh, Sister Xiao Xi, keep your voice down!" This time, Wei Min wasn't angry, but raised a finger to her lips, signaling Mu Yunxi to keep her voice down.

"Why...?" Mu Yunxi asked.

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, Li Beifei coughed a few times.

Mu Yunxi looked back and found her uncle's expression strange, so she asked, "Uncle, are you okay?"

Li Beifei's face darkened, and then he said in a deep voice, "Xiao Xi, actually, I am the misleading master you mentioned earlier, and of course, the creator of the messy swordsmanship you just mentioned."

"Ah... How is that possible?"

Mu Yunxi was stunned.

"Why is it impossible?" Li Beifei asked.

Mu Yunxi thought for a while and said seriously, "I learned from my father that you are a peerless genius in swordsmanship, and even my aunt is not your opponent. No one can compare to you in swordsmanship. If you are Xiao Min'er's master, how could her swordsmanship be so poor?"

Although Mu Yunxi didn't know why Wei Min was with her aunt and uncle, she had never thought that Wei Min's master was her uncle. A famous teacher produces outstanding students. Her uncle was a well-known swordsmanship genius back then. No matter how bad his disciple was, she shouldn't be like Wei Min, with no rules in her swordsmanship and a lack of basic skills.

"Wait, what did you say I am?" Li Beifei asked.

"A peerless genius in swordsmanship, no one can compare to you!" Mu Yunxi emphasized again.

"Good eye!" Li Beifei gave her a thumbs up. As for the things just now, after hearing this sentence, he said that Xiao Xi had said nothing before.

Tuoba Beier rolled her eyes at him after hearing this and said disdainfully, "Senior Brother is more powerful than you."

"Can you compare me with someone else?" Li Beifei said helplessly.

"My master is also more powerful than you." Tuoba Beier really changed someone, but this person was Houtu.

Li Beifei almost wanted to vomit blood and said, "Change someone who is about the same age as me."

"Shameless, you are Senior Brother's disciple. You are actually comparing yourself to someone of the same age. It's too shameful." Tuoba Beier shook her head and sighed, looking like she was ashamed for Senior Brother.

"..."

Li Beifei was completely speechless.

"Hehe..."

Liu Yanran and Liu Yuran secretly laughed as they saw their young master being defeated.

Li Beifei glared at them when he saw this.

At this time, Wei Min said to Mu Yunxi, "Actually, my master didn't teach me swordsmanship. I just practiced it randomly myself. I'm cultivating martial arts."

"Martial arts?"

Mu Yunxi was puzzled by this unfamiliar word.

"Yes, martial arts is a cultivation system that is different from immortal cultivation but has potential no less than immortal cultivation," Wei Min said.

"A new cultivation system, so amazing!"

Although Mu Yunxi didn't understand, she felt it was very amazing.

"Right?" Wei Min said proudly. She didn't know how to explain it now, but she could feel that Mu Yunxi really thought it was amazing, so she was very proud.

"Yeah, yeah!"

Mu Yunxi nodded, completely lacking the maturity of an older sister, while Wei Min behaved more maturely.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a vibration came from the universe, and a huge vortex appeared in the dark starry sky. Such a phenomenon attracted the attention of the powerhouses in the universe.

Immediately afterward, a slender figure walked out of the vortex, with a nine-story pagoda exuding a chaotic aura floating above his head.

"Red Dust Realm, long time no see!"

This person was naturally the Desolate Ancient Great Emperor, Gu Sheng!
