Peace Order-Chapter 123 - 77 I have undergone Body Casting_3

Li Guanyi said, "Should I call out?"

Xue Shuangtao replied, "Not at all, that would be impolite."

The young man laughed and shouted loudly, "Who cares about manners at a time like this, Xue Shuangtao, are you stupid?" His Inner Qi amplified his voice greatly, startling the birds. The young lady’s eyes widened and then she began to laugh, cupping her hands around her mouth and shouting, "Li Guanyi, you are the real fool!"

After shouting several times, he suddenly felt very exhilarated.

Then she started laughing.

After watching the scenery for a while, Li Guanyi called her down. The young man said, "Be careful coming down, it’s much harder than climbing up, I’ll catch you."

Xue Shuangtao said, "I am a martial artist; there’s nothing to fear!"

She agilely jumped down, using the tree trunk for leverage, but just then, a spinning top came their way.

A five- or six-year-old child recklessly chased after it.

Just like Li Guanyi in his previous life had seen children running wildly on the roads, sometimes children are not aware of dangers. The young lady’s Jade Arm Divine Bow Skills could cause severe injury with a burst of Inner Qi if contact occurred.

Li Guanyi stepped forward as Xue Shuangtao shifted her Inner Qi.

With a pivot, she landed elsewhere, avoiding the child.

The child holding the spinning top was so frightened that he froze. Li Guanyi grabbed the fleeing youngster, scolding him sternly to prevent future mishaps. The young lady, seeing that everything was fine, said, "Don’t be so harsh."

Li Guanyi raised his eyebrows, "Otherwise, this kid will make the same mistake again."

He pinched the child’s nose, threatening fiercely:

"If you mess up again, I’ll come to your door at midnight and take your nose, then you’ll just have two holes left." That frightened the child so much that he ran off, pale-faced. Xue Shuangtao chuckled and said, "How can you behave so childishly?"

Li Guanyi was indifferent and merely continued walking back with the young lady. Initially, Xue Shuangtao walked normally, but then Li Guanyi noticed her furrowing her brows and starting to limp on the left side. He sighed and told her to stop, saying, "Did you sprain your ankle?"

"You haven’t mastered body casting, and such high-explosive martial arts can easily injure yourself, and you still rapidly changed forms... no good, I still have to scold that boy."

Xue Shuangtao laughed and cried at the same time, "Okay, enough with your nonsense."

Li Guanyi said, "This is not nonsense."

"Can you still walk?"

Xue Shuangtao tried jumping down, saying, "I can."

"No way."

Li Guanyi rolled his eyes, squatted down, and seeing that the young lady’s ankle was swollen, he turned around and said, "Climb up."

"What?"

Li Guanyi said, "If you don’t climb up and we walk back, you might have to lie in bed for another five days." The girl hesitated, thinking that her ankle was already touched by him anyway, so getting carried by him wasn’t a big deal, and gently leaned onto Li Guanyi’s back.

Li Guanyi laughed, "You’re really light."

He carried the young lady on his back, walking back along the mist-shrouded paths of Jiangnan. Along the way, they bought a string of candied hawthorns. The young lady held onto his shoulders, and he sped along, lamenting the lack of public transportation in the world, wishing for public horse-drawn carriages.

He joked all the way, making the young lady chuckle.

"What’s the matter?"

"Nothing."

Xue Shuangtao said, "I just thought, in the past, I only practiced the zither and trained, and every day seemed the same. Today was very strange, and I think, many years from now, I will definitely not forget this day."

She thought softly, "No matter how far, no matter how old."

"I will always revisit today’s events with a smile."

Li Guanyi carried her through the narrow alleys of Jiangnan, through the misty rain, with laughter in his ears.

However, when they returned, the people of the Xue Family were stunned.

The old master had earlier heard that Li Guanyi took Xue Shuangtao out for fun and just laughed it off, but upon seeing them return, he suddenly could hardly muster a smile.

His eyes twitched, he asked a maid to take the young lady, who suddenly realized what had happened and whose face was flushed red, for treatment. Then he sternly glared at Li Guanyi and said, "You rascal, come here!"

"If you don’t explain yourself today, old man here will hang you up and whip you!"

Li Guanyi said, "Because today I was a bit too merry, acting recklessly. Seeing the young lady in poor spirits, I just took her out for a change of scenery."

"Merry? Good, lad, tell me, how merry?"

The old master grimaced, an ominous look on his face:

"If you can’t explain it, I’ll make sure you ’enjoy’ it."

Li Guanyi smiled faintly, clasped his fists, and struck.

The sound was like the clinking of gold and jade.

The old man’s expression slowly solidified.

Li Guanyi said:

"I’ve mastered body casting."
