255 You Guys Practice, I’ll Watch

“No…” Dong Xi said with a guilty conscience.
Song Qingfeng snorted and looked at the two people in front of him. He said, “Aren’t you guys practicing the sword? You guys practice, I’ll watch.”
Dong Xi looked at the wooden sword in her hand, then at Liang Yan. For a moment, she did not know what to do.
Liang Yan’s expression was indeed natural. He kept the wooden sword in his hand and said, “Weren’t you in a hurry for the pills? I’ll immediately go and refine it, I’ll be leaving first.”
With that, Liang Yan ran off. Dong Xi looked at her Eldest Senior Brother and was dumbfounded. In the past, it was Second Senior Brother who was afraid of Eldest Senior Brother. But now, it was the other way around? Dong Xi said, “E-Eldest Senior Brother…”
Without waiting for Dong Xi to say anything, Eldest Senior Brother had already run far away.
Dong Xi then looked at Second Senior Brother, who was flipping through Dong Xi’s stickman notes.
“Did you draw all of this?” asked Song Qingfeng.
Dong Xi nodded honestly. Song Qingfeng said, “That’s true. Only you could have written such ugly words.”
Dong Xi was speechless.
You can be fierce, but you can’t humiliate people like this!
Song Qingfeng tidied up the paper and handed it to Dong Xi. He said, “You’re still young, why do you have to work so hard? In terms of cultivation speed, you’re ahead of many people. It’s not necessarily a good thing to cultivate too fast. You have to be careful in everything you do.”
Dong Xi, who had always been well-behaved, shook her head and said, “It’s not a good thing to cultivate too fast, but it’s definitely not a good thing to cultivate too slowly.”
Song Qingfeng frowned and asked, “Junior Sister, why do you say that?”
Dong Xi said ambiguously, “Because… I have a reason to work hard.”
Seeing that Dong Xi did not want to tell him, Song Qingfeng did not continue to ask. It was true that she had been working hard, but he was worried that Dong Xi’s mental state would not be able to keep up if she cultivated too fast.
Song Qingfeng patted his clothes and said, “In that case, I’ll bring you along the next time I go on an experiential training, so that you can broaden your horizons.”
Dong Xi looked at Song Qingfeng in surprise and said, “Second Senior Brother, when do you have time to go out and gain experience?”
Song Qingfeng waved the fan in his hand and said with a smile, “After I enter the top three in the inter-sect tournament.”
“Good luck, Second Senior Brother!” Dong Xi said.
Song Qingfeng smiled. He did not care about the false reputation. He just wanted to know who Dong Xi was.
“Good luck to you too,” Song Qingfeng said. “You’ve also entered the top 100. It’s good to go out and broaden your horizons.”
The sparring ended with Second Senior Brother’s interruption.
Dong Xi was thinking that she would be going to the competition in a few days’ time. That place was the territory of the Thunder Sound Temple. It was originally in the Green Cloud Sect, but the things that the Green Cloud Sect had done made everyone unable to trust them, so they changed the place at the last minute. Although Dong Xi’s strength was not high, she could still take this opportunity to see the moves of other sects. Now that there was still more than half a month’s time, she had to make good use of it to cultivate.
After saying goodbye to Second Senior Brother, Dong Xi went to the alchemy room.
The primary alchemy room was already full, so Dong Xi could only grit her teeth and go to the intermediate alchemy room.
She sat in the alchemy room for a long time. When she thought of the competition, Dong Xi returned to her cave abode.
After removing the restriction, Dong Xi entered and was immediately stunned.
The Immortal’s cave was covered in hundreds of leaves. Liu Qing’s tree was also withered and listless, and the ground was covered in a layer of fallen leaves.
There were cobwebs everywhere. The flower beds and experimental fields seemed to have been abandoned for a long time. Even the pond was dry, and the soil at the bottom of the pond had cracked.
Such a scene caused Dong Xi’s brain to be stunned. She did not know how to react.
Although Dong Xi did not come back often, she had long believed that this was her home. She shared this home with Liu Qing, Songsong, and Big Snake.
That’s right, Big Snake!
Dong Xi immediately ran to the cave dwelling, opened the door, and entered. She found it empty inside.
The snake’s decorations had all disappeared, and only the stone bed and table were left.
Dong Xi’s ears rang. The surroundings were so quiet that she could even hear her own breathing.
What on earth had happened? Could it be that Big Snake was discovered?
But where were Liu Qing and Songsong?
Tears instantly rolled down Dong Xi’s face. A hand appeared and wiped the tears away.
Dong Xi raised her head in shock and looked at the huge snake standing in front of her.
The surrounding illusion dissipated little by little, and it returned to its previous lively appearance.
“Oh, so you are capable of crying?” Big Snake asked in surprise. “Why did you leave for so many days?”
Dong Xi’s body stiffened, and her eyes were filled with tears.
She could not react in time, and her emotions could not be adjusted at all.
Was it just an illusion? But why did the illusion feel so real?
In the past, Dong Xi could tell at a glance that the ghost forest that the Big Snake conjured up was an illusion!
