The Cool and Aloof Senior Sister Always Flirts with Me

Chapter 94: Sea Heart Incense

Qi Xianqing walked ahead, suddenly feeling a wave of irritation rise within her for some unknown reason.

For cultivators, having a protector is clearly a very intimate matter. Just now, it felt as if she had entrusted her life to Yan Jue, and now she felt completely exhausted...

But Yan Jue had just been holding onto her vital pulse, and in the blink of an eye, her attention had shifted elsewhere.

Moreover, breaking through the life-and-death situation had also been a huge ordeal for Yan Jue.

In Yan Jue's heart, was her own body really so unimportant?

Qi Xianqing had initially wanted to show concern for Yan Jue, but seeing Yan Jue focused on the snake, she suddenly found herself unable to voice her thoughts.

Yan Jue looked at Qi Xianqing's back, lowering her head, feeling inexplicably aggrieved.

Her whole body felt painfully burned by Qi Xianqing's electric energy, as if her bones were about to fall apart.

But did Qi Xianqing not think to pay her a little more attention...?

Qi Xianqing took a few steps forward, suddenly wanting to ask Yan Jue if she knew that being a protector actually meant fulfilling the responsibilities of a partner.

Qi Xianqing furrowed her brows slightly and swallowed the words back.

If Yan Jue knew that, it would be strange...

In fact, no ancient texts ever mentioned that being a protector was a partner's duty. Within the sect, there were indeed good relationships among female disciples who mutually protected each other.

Only partners could protect one another; this was just something Qi Xianqing had summarized from reading many books.

However, she had only shared this rebellious thought with one person.

No, with one fox.

The more Qi Xianqing thought about it, the more it felt wrong, as questions she had been doubting for a long time surged back into her mind.

Another matter gradually occupied her entire brain.

The earlier incident of slaying the snake monster reminded Qi Xianqing just how bloody and brutal the monsters were.

Within the Five Dragon Sect, no demonic beings were allowed to exist.

The education Qi Xianqing had received emphasized this point repeatedly.

But she didn't know when it had started, her worldview had already been shattered by herself.

Qi Xianqing's inner turmoil was immense, as if a pair of hands were clutching tightly at her heart.

She took two steps forward, suddenly turning around and asking, "I don't think I've ever seen Junior Sister Yan advance, yet it seems like your cultivation level is always improving. Why is that?"

Qi Xianqing's gaze was like a tangible force, causing Yan Jue's mind to buzz, and she suddenly felt chilled all over, as if her blood was flowing backward.

Yan Jue: "I have advanced too! It's just... it's just that you didn't see it."

She felt a bit guilty, but Qi Xianqing's gaze was unwavering.

Yan Jue felt a prickling sensation on her scalp under that gaze, and she instinctively took a step back, her back hitting the wall.

Qi Xianqing stepped forward, looking down at her.
