After rebirth, I picked up my mortal enemy as my apprentice Chapter 148

The next day, when the first ray of sunlight in the morning fell on Ke Jiu, she slowly opened her eyes.

Feeling the true Qi flowing in her body at this moment, although not as abundant as when she was innate, it was more condensed than the true Qi she had when she was practicing Qi.

A few fallen leaves floated past her eyes. She stretched out her fingertips, and an invisible sword energy burst out from her hand, causing an invisible wave in the air.

The fallen leaves were cut into several pieces in an instant.

Ke Jiu glanced at his fingertips, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

“It’s true. This retraining should be considered a blessing in disguise. My current amount of Qi can only be considered as an ordinary Qi training perfection, but I can release Qi externally, which is something that only the innate can do.”

“Once I regain my original state, I will be completely different from before.” Her eyes were dazed for a moment.

When the true Qi flowed, everything it touched seemed like an extension of her perception, as smooth as the movement of her arms and fingers. This was something she could not feel from the techniques she had practiced before.

No wonder Lianyun Jue is so difficult to practice. If you want to gain powerful strength, there will naturally be more demanding prices and higher risks.

Ke Jiu closed his eyes, feeling the subtle differences in himself at this moment.

After a while, she slowly opened her eyes and turned around.

“Miss Huo, did you sleep well last night?”

Huo Xiaoliang pursed his lips slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

She asked back, “Where’s Miss Nan? Was she okay last night?”

Ke Jiu nodded: “All right.”

“I’m not okay.” Huo Xiaoliang’s palms began to clench.

Ke Jiu looked at her quietly without saying anything, but he could probably guess why she did that.

After some psychological struggle, Huo Xiaoliang finally made up his mind and went for it.

Her clenched palms loosened and her eyes stared at her intently.

“Last night, Xuan came to see you. What did he say to you?”

Ke Jiu was not surprised by this. She had felt it last night. Besides Lin Xuan, Huo Xiaoliang’s presence was also nearby.

From observations over the past few days, Huo Xiaoliang always cared about him. It seemed that Lin Xuan’s action of getting up in the middle of the night woke her up.

“We had a small talk and discussed where we should go today.”

“If that’s all, I could have talked to you in the morning. Why would I come to talk to you alone at night?”

Ke Jiu shook his head.

“Miss Huo, if you want to know the answer, why don’t you just ask Master Lin yourself? Why do you have to come to me?”

“You…” Huo Xiaoliang choked.

Ke Jiu asked back: “Are you worried?”

“I, what am I worried about?”

“These words are not good to say from my mouth, but…” Ke Jiu’s eyes flickered, “You should have vaguely realized that, Mr. Lin, I am beginning to feel tired of being with you on this matter.”

She sighed and continued, “So you are worried that he will leave you in the future, right?”

It seemed that Ke Jiu had touched upon something that he had already sensed in his heart, but was not willing to face.

Huo Xiaoliang’s face suddenly turned pale.

“You, what are you… talking about? Ah Xuan will never abandon me. We… are very important to each other.”

She looked at Ke Jiu anxiously and argued uneasily, as if she wanted to convince Ke Jiu, but more importantly, she wanted to convince herself.

“You know nothing about my past. You don’t know how we got to where we are now. Stop…stop trying to sow discord between us.”

Ke Jiu looked calm and waited patiently for Huo Xiaoliang to finish his words.

“Miss Huo, I don’t think you are a stupid person. You have your own sharp judgment on many things. The facts cannot be denied by emotion.”

Huo Xiaoliang’s chest heaved. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

However, I still couldn’t do it. It felt like there was a gasp in my chest.

“It’s obviously you. If it wasn’t you, Xuan wouldn’t…”

Ke Jiu frowned, feeling that Huo Xiaoliang was beginning to be a little bit puzzled.

“I have nothing to do with Master Lin. No matter what the reason is, you cannot use me as a target to vent your resentment.”

“Anyway, if you hadn’t shown up in the first place, this wouldn’t have happened.”

There was a slight chill in her eyes, and she said in a slightly cold tone: “Miss Huo, you need to let her calm down.”

Huo Xiaoliang’s expression changed slightly. Before this, she had not noticed that when Ke Jiu was dissatisfied, he had a domineering aura without even getting angry.

At this moment, Ke Jiu looked at her coldly. Although she had a plain little face, her eyebrows were raised and there was a cold light floating faintly in her eyes.

Huo Xiaoliang’s heart felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock, and even the temperature of his skin seemed to have dropped a few degrees.

At this moment, Lin Xuan’s voice came from afar.

“Hey, Xiaoliang, I asked you to call Miss Nan to come over for some grilled fish. Why did it take you so long?”

“If it’s any later, the fish I grilled will get cold.”

Hearing Lin Xuan’s words, Ke Jiu was startled and restrained the spiritual pressure and spiritual awareness emanating from his body.

The moment the pressure on Huo Xiaoliang was relieved, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

“What did you just do?” She looked at Ke Jiu in surprise and doubt.

Ke Jiu looked at her calmly, as if the pressure he had just put on her was just an illusion.

“Miss Huo, Master Lin is calling you now.”

Huo Xiaoliang’s expression changed and he turned his head.

His eyebrows were drooping just now, but after hearing Lin Xuan’s words, he seemed like a different person.

She turned around and waved to Lin Xuan who was far away: “Ah Xuan, wait for me, I will bring Miss Nan with me soon.”

Seeing this, Ke Jiu sighed inwardly.

Is this another girl obsessed with love? In the current world of immortal cultivation, such girls are really rare.

Although the world of constant deception is boring, but…

Speaking of which, Lin Xuan doesn’t look that special. I wonder why Huo Xiaoliang likes him so much?

However, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Perhaps there is something special about him that only she can see.

Just like the kid Xiaofan, although he sometimes can’t think straight, his stubborn emotions can also help him overcome obstacles that are difficult for ordinary people to overcome.

Ke Jiu was slightly stunned.

Somehow, her thoughts suddenly drifted to Ji Fan.

“Miss Nan, hurry over, Xuan is already urging you.”

Huo Xiaoliang subconsciously avoided her eyes and just reminded her from the side.

Ke Jiu came back to his senses and nodded slightly.

After a while, the two arrived at the river, and Lin Xuan had almost finished grilling the fish.

He stood by the river with an excited smile on his face.

Lin Xuan carefully picked up two freshly grilled fish from the fire. The fish skin was baked golden and crispy, exuding an enticing aroma.

“Come and try it!” he called to the two girls.

Huo Xiaoliang took it and started eating it happily.

Lin Xuan looked at Ke Jiu, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

But she shook her head.

“Thank you, I’m not hungry.”
