Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The next day after Bai Xianyu made wine, she did not really want to go and listen to Master Yu Chan preach.

Green Pearl had never seen such a scene before. Now that she had seen it and also listened to him, she quickly lost interest like Bai Xianyu.

Since breakfast, Bai Li had been looking at Bai Xianyu hesitantly.

A glint flashed across Bai Xianyu’s eyes as she called him to his side. “Bai Li, can you teach me the sword?”

Bai Li’s eyes widened and he immediately said, “No, Miss. If Third Young Master finds out, I’m afraid I’ll be in trouble.”

“If you don’t say it, and 1 don’t say it, how could this be leaked?” She gestured for him to look around. “Only you, Green Pearl, and I are here. I’ve already sent out the guards in the residence. No one will know.”

Bai Li was in a difficult position. “Miss, you’re precious. If you get injured, I won’t be able to answer for it.”

“I just want to learn some self-defense moves. How about this?” Bai Xianyu raised her eyes and looked at the fallen branches in the forest. “How about I use a wooden sword?”

Bai Li was a little hesitant.

“Alright, stop hesitating. Help me make a wooden sword now. This is an order.” Bai Xianyu was not joking. She smiled very seriously and said, “I’ll explain to Third Brother myself when I get back.”

Bai Li also knew the temper of Miss. She looked delicate, but if she had set her mind on something, she would definitely do it.

He finally said, “Yes.”

It was not easy to have this rare leisure time. When Bai Xianyu was eight years old, she enrolled in Lushan Academy with Bai Jinyan. They went to school from sunrise to sunset. The amount of free time they had was about the same as the imperial court’s rest days for baths. Now, it was almost time for the end-of-course assessment. Unfortunately, in the Great Kui dynasty, women could not sit for the imperial examinations and be promoted to officials.

Soon, a well-maintained wooden sword was brought to Bai Xianyu. She picked it up and felt that it was a little heavy.

However, who wouldn’t suffer when learning such things?

Bai Xianyu was in a good mood. She stood on a protruding mountain rock and pointed at a spot. “That spot there. It looks quite spacious.”

Bai Li nodded. “Then I’ll go and open the way first.”

In the depths of the forest, haphazard tree roots intertwined. In the middle, it was like a boulder or a mountain that had been polished fiat. Crystal-like dew slid from the leaves and dripped into the small puddle.

The young girl held a wooden sword in her hand, and her hair was neatly tied into a high ponytail. The auspicious-cloud jade belt floated behind her. Her moves looked jerky, but they had already taken shape.

Bai Xianyu’s expression was serious. She drew a sword with her right hand and suddenly turned around to stab at Bai Li with an icy aura.

Bai Li was stunned for a moment, but he did not move. Instead, he reached out and grabbed the tip of the sword just as it was about to reach his heart.

With just a gentle squeeze, Bai Xianyu could not take another step forward.

She panted lightly. Green Pearl, who was at the side, quickly took a handkerchief to wipe her sweat. “Miss, do take a rest. It’s been six hours.”

Bai Xianyu was a little defeated. “Didn’t you say that 1 improved quite quickly? Why can’t 1 move my sword with just a gentle squeeze?”

Bai Li turned his head and smiled. “Miss, if you could hurt me after practicing for six hours, 1 don’t know how many times 1 would have died outside.”

Bai Xianyu was indeed a little tired. She took a sip of tea and found a clean tree stump to squat on.

She replied flatly, “Oh.”

Bai Li smiled and said, “Miss, don’t be discouraged. 1 guarantee with my life that Miss is indeed talented in this aspect. When I first entered the sect, my sword wasn’t as stable as Miss’s. As expected, an outstanding father doesn’t have a mediocre daughter.”

Bai Xianyu was not so gloomy anymore. After all, she was a daughter of a general. He could not embarrass her too much.

“Let’s carry on,” she said, getting up.

Green Pearl was worried that Bai Xianyu might be too physically tired. She pressed down on her sword and said anxiously, “Miss, rest for a while more. I’ll get your lunch ready first for you before you continue.”

Bai Xianyu was about to refuse when she suddenly saw a wild rabbit jumping past them.

“No need. Let’s have roasted rabbit for lunch.”

She glanced at the little white rabbit that was eating grass and whispered, “Don’t move, don’t move. Green Pearl, go back and get some seasoning.”

Green Pearl nodded and carefully trod on the leaves on her way back.

Bai Li did not move when he heard this. He quietly looked into the depths of the forest.

As expected, among the lush green leaves, there was a young man in black clothes and black boots. He bent one leg and casually placed the other leg between the intertwined branches. The silver-white scabbard of his sword was chilling.

And under the tree stood a young man who looked like a guard.

[That’s right, Miss. You didn’t even blink when you met such a demonic man. No wonder you weren’t even moved when the Young Marquis of the Xie Family chased after you like this]

Bai Li also heard this in the peach blossom forest and was stunned.

He did not expect Xie Xingyun, who had been in the limelight recently, to have such thoughts about Miss.

He even lowered himself to be her guard.

However, he only dared to look at her from afar.

Bai Li had been by Bai Jingyuan’s side for more than ten years. Other than Miss, his master had never praised anyone except Xie Xingyun.

His paper ranked top in the question paper which his master had personally written.

To this day, Bai Li still remembered his master’s smile.

[Xie, Xing, Yun. Finally, there’s a good one… How could the one with golden scales be an ordinary creature in a pond? It can transform into a dragon when it encounters a storm.]

This was a high evaluation.

It was a pity that he had taken a fancy to Miss.

Miss was the apple of the eye in the General Manor. In this world, Bai Li felt that no one was worthy of Miss.

Bai Xianyu pounced forward to catch the rabbit and suddenly lowered her eyebrows. “Ah… I forgot that killing is prohibited in the forbidden Buddhist grounds.”

Bai Li also remembered that there seemed to be such a rule.

Bai Xianyu’s stomach growled at an inappropriate time. “Forget it. Bai Li, take it and keep it first. I’ll roast it when we bring it back to the residence.”

Bai Li laughed. “Alright, Miss.”

There was some greediness in Bai Xianyu’s gaze. First, she was really hungry. Second, she remembered the drumstick Xie Xingyun roasted that day.

Bai Li passed through the forest, but he was stopped by someone.

He knew that the man in front of him had no ill intentions, so he asked, “What’s the matter, Young Marquis?”

Xie Xingyun glanced at the rabbit in Bai Li’s hand and reached out to grab its ears with an indifferent gaze.

Bai Li thought, “Don’t tell me Xie Xingyun is fighting with Miss for the rabbit?”

Just as he finished thinking, the person in front of him disappeared, leaving only an afterimage.

Bai Li,”…”

Xiao Zheng, who was behind Xie Xingyun, was also stunned.

What was Young Master doing?

Snatching a rabbit from Fifth Miss Bai?

He and Bai Li stared at each other for a while before he took out a gold ingot from his sleeve in a daze. “Young Master wants to eat this. Go and catch another one for Fifth Miss Bai.”

Bai Li said angrily, “Are you bandits?”

Xiao Zheng was embarrassed. “Then i’ll help you catch another one.”

Bai Li snorted and frowned as he went to look for a rabbit nest.

However, not long after, Xie Xingyun returned.

He was still holding the rabbit.

However, the rabbit was already dead.

He used his fingers to remove the weeds on the rabbit’s body and said, “I killed it on the adjacent mountain. Give it to her..”
