Chapter 274 Bold speculation
But it doesn’t matter. The young master seems to have a good relationship with Ruan Xihe, so he can rest assured.
Finally, several elders and high-ranking guards brought by the Xia family's ancestor took Xia Zhirou's body back to the Xia family.
Only the head of the Xia family and the ancestor of the Xia family are left here.
Facing the gazes from the two of them, Xia Yuanbai swallowed guiltily, shrank his neck, and slowly moved behind Ruan Xihe.
The ancestor of the Xia family stared at Xia Yuanbai leisurely, but he was talking to Ruan Xihe, "I still have many doubts about the holy object. Can Miss Ruan answer them separately?"
Finally, under the gossiping and onlooker gazes of the crowd, the few of them went to a private room in a restaurant in Longyang City.
The head of the Xia family first asked Xia Yuanbai why the holy object had come into Ruan Xihe's hands before.
Xia Yuanbai realized that he could no longer hide the fact that he had lost the sacred object, so he simply told the truth.
But what Xia Yuanbai couldn't understand was why the restrictions on the dagger would sometimes disappear and then suddenly appear in the next place, as if the connection had been forcibly severed.
Thinking of this, he asked out of curiosity.
Ruan Xihe was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly.
When she doesn't use the Beiwen Knife, she keeps it in the Qiankun Bracelet.
This means that it was probably the Qiankun bracelet that cut off the restrictions on the Beiwen Sword, so Xia Yuanbai lost his target while chasing.
She said, "I put it in the storage bag, so the restriction may be isolated by the storage bag."
Everyone has no doubt about him.
Xia Yuanbai believed it without thinking much.
Patriarch Xia said, "Miss Ruan, please give me the holy object first. I will help you remove the tracking spell on it and sharpen the knife."
Ruan Xihe nodded, then passed the dagger to the head of the Xia family across the table.
The dagger floated in front of Master Xia, and then complex marks began to form on Master Xia's hands.
The mark rushed towards the blade with a bang.
After a long time, a cold light flashed on the blade. Just by looking at it, one could feel that it was much sharper than before.
"Wow, it's graded higher in an instant!" Xiao Yin is also a weapon refiner, so he can naturally see that the dagger's grade has become higher.
Ruan Xihe took the dagger, played with it in his hand for a while, and then thanked the head of the Xia family.
Finally, several people had a meal, and Xia Yuanbai naturally got the mixed doubles from the head of the Xia family and the ancestor of the Xia family.
When Xia Yuanbai left the restaurant, he was carried out by Xiao Yin and Jimo Qianyi. Ruan Xihe led the way in front, and the two of them followed behind, carrying Xia Yuanbai.
After returning to the inn, they no longer had the desire to go out again.
It was still early, so Ruan Xihe returned to the room and first took a bath in the Hongmeng Spring in the space. Then he changed into clean clothes before leaving the space.
She came to Xia Yuanbai's room and gave him a healing pill. Xia Yuanbai lay on the bed wailing and screaming.
Xiao Yin and Jimo Qianyi both felt that their cultivation was about to break through due to the long battle today, so they returned to their rooms to practice.
Xia Yuanbai felt a little guilty, "Ruan Ruan, I'm really sorry for you today. If I hadn't been deceived by her, you wouldn't have been hurt."
"It's okay." Ruan Xihe lay on the table and shook his head.
At this moment, her mind was not here at all.
Thinking that tomorrow would be the day when the Saint Maiden Cult would recruit disciples, but until now Fu Ling had not come to see her...
Seeing that she didn't care much, Xia Yuanbai felt even more guilty. "I'm serious, Ruan Ruan, if you have any requests, just ask. I will never refuse."
Ruan Xihe didn't say anything.
Suddenly, she thought of something, suddenly got up from the table, then turned her head and stared at Xia Yuanbai.
"I do have one thing I might need your help with."
Then, she waved her hand to create a barrier, and lowered her voice to tell Xia Yuanbai about her plan to disguise herself as a couple and enter the Holy Maiden Church.
She also told Xia Yuanbai about her previous appointment with Fu Ling to play the role of husband and wife, but she did not tell Xia Yuanbai Fu Ling's name and identity, only saying that he was her good friend.
She said that Fu Ling had left suddenly for something, and if he didn't come back tomorrow morning, she would let Xia Yuanbai replace Fu Ling and enter the Holy Maiden Church with her.
After hearing this, Xia Yuanbai naturally agreed.
Because this matter is not only to help her, but also required by the academy's mission. Not to mention letting him play the role of a woman, he can even play the role of a corpse.
Finally, Ruan Xihe explained the plan to him in detail, and then the two of them discussed the entire team's battle strategy for tomorrow.
Time quickly came to the next day.
The streets were bustling with noise.
After Ruan Xihe got up, she still didn't see Fu Ling. She couldn't explain how she felt, but she just felt a little uncomfortable.
She attributed her discomfort to Fu Ling's breaking of his promise and not helping her as he had agreed to do.
Xiao Yin and Jimo Qianyi were both promoted, and their mental state today is much better than usual.
The two men came to find Ruan Xihe and Xia Yuanbai, and then Ruan Xihe told them the plan and asked them to be prepared and wait for instructions to contact the other two teams at any time.
As for the other disciples, they all disguised themselves and blended into the crowd watching the fun, waiting to see what would happen.
In the end, Xia Yuanbai and Ruan Xihe both disguised themselves and mixed into the team on their way to the Holy Maiden Sect to recruit disciples.
The Holy Maiden Sect recruited disciples in an empty hall at the foot of the mountain.
The two followed the team and poured into the square in front of the hall. The square was crowded with people, and all they could see was a sea of heads.
The disciple recruitment process requires that identity information be registered at the entrance of the hall first, and then verified by people from the Holy Maiden Church.
Only if the identity information is correct can one enter the hall to undergo a test of talent and cultivation, which will ultimately determine whether the disciple stays or leaves.
If you are left behind, go into the backyard and wait. After the recruitment process is completed, go back to the Holy Maiden Church with the people from the Holy Maiden Church.
But now...
Ruan Xihe looked at the tightly closed door of the hall. There was no one at the door, which proved that the people from the Holy Maiden Church had not arrived yet.
She didn't want to be squeezed, so she simply pulled Xia Yuanbai to the edge of the square.
"Ruan Ruan, do I look particularly good in women's clothes?" Xia Yuanbai suddenly asked her this question out of nowhere.
Ruan Xihe was a little curious about where his confidence came from. "How did you come to this conclusion?"
When Xia Yuanbai heard this, he pointed to a place not far away with disapproval.
"Because there was a woman over there who kept staring at me. I felt like her eyes were about to penetrate my back."
"I boldly speculate that she must have never seen a woman as beautiful as me and was jealous that I was prettier than her. Otherwise, why would she keep staring at me with such resentful and cold eyes?"
Ruan Xihe grinned and said, "You are indeed quite bold."
