"Cough cough cough..."
You Ruo coughed violently, then punched Jiang Bai with her small fists, crying, "Why did you save me? Why? Can't I even die if I want to?"
You Ruo burst into tears, thinking that it was her maid Ding Ning who had saved her.
The reason I sent Ding Ning away earlier was that I wanted to end my life on my 18th birthday. After all, the World Society is no longer under my father's control, and the forbidden place, Lakeside Pavilion, could be discovered by outsiders at any time.
You Ruo was actually very clear about this.
"Why are you so young and so depressed? Isn't it good to be alive?"
Jiang Bai held the person in his arms and spoke softly.
"Who...who are you, and how dare you come to this forbidden area?"
Upon hearing the unfamiliar voice, You Ruo immediately snapped out of her daze and instinctively pushed Jiang Bai away.
Once she saw what the other person looked like, she was completely captivated.
Since she was old enough to understand, she had been confined to the lakeside pavilion and had never seen another man except for a few times when she met Xiong Ba.
Jiang Bai has a handsome face and an elegant demeanor. As a terrestrial immortal, his temperament is extraordinary. Moreover, he has just taken the Youth-Preserving Pill, so he can naturally charm countless young girls.
"The world has changed now. I can come and go as I please."
Jiang Bai responded casually, without revealing his identity.
As he spoke, he was also sizing up You Ruo in front of him.
have to say.
Xiong Ba's only daughter was indeed very beautiful. She had bright eyes and white teeth, exquisite features, and a touch of arrogance. Her slender waist... and the alluring figure of her most prominent parts left a deep impression.
This was the first beautiful woman Jiang Bai had seen after transmigrating to the Nine Provinces Continent; it was impossible for him not to be moved.
"Thank you for saving me."
You Ruo said in a low voice. Facing a handsome man like Jiang Bai, she put away her former arrogance and acted somewhat reserved.
Jiang Bai was speechless. Just now, the other party was trying to commit suicide, but now she was thanking the person who saved her. Her mentality changed too quickly!
"I was just passing by."
Jiang Bai casually remarked, then immediately offered words of comfort: "In life, there are many things you shouldn't worry about too much. Just keep your mind at peace and content, and you'll be free from worries. Actually, being alive is quite good."
You Ruo fell into deep thought, seemingly savoring Jiang Bai's words, and finally said absentmindedly, "I've lived on this island for more than ten years, living a life isolated from the world, and I'm getting a little tired of it."
As a time traveler, Jiang Bai naturally understood You Ruo's situation.
He then chuckled and said, "That's true. Staying alone on this island all year round can be quite boring. Let me take you out to see the world."
Done.
Without waiting for You Ruo's response, he simply grabbed her hand and left the attic.
Chapter 48 The small boat trembles precariously, revealing the secret of the Dragon-Slaying Saber.
evening.
Near the lakeside pavilion, Jiang Bai, along with Xiong Ba's only daughter You Ruo, rowed a small boat on the lake.
You Ruo looked cheerful, a charming smile on her face.
"This is my first time rowing, and I didn't expect it to be so much fun. Thank you for spending the day with me."
As You Ruo spoke, she slapped the oars against the water, splashing water that wet her white dress.
In fact, she was not an ordinary woman, but had received part of Xiong Ba's true teachings and had reached the Grandmaster level of cultivation.
Jiang Bai had already seen through this, and casually asked, "With your abilities, leaving the Lakeside Cottage shouldn't be difficult, so why have you stayed here all these years?"
"Do you think I don't want to?"
You Ruoshui looked at Jiang Bai with a bright and clear gaze, and then added, "Xiong Ba had been keeping an eye on me. If he saw that I was planning to leave the Lakeside Pavilion, he would stop me and seal my cultivation. I still can't break through the seal."
"I see!"
Jiang Bai nodded, then raised his hand and tapped You Ruo's shoulder a few times, instantly breaking the seal within her body with his true essence.
An aura of a master at the peak of his skill spread out.
It is not hard to see from this that You Ruo inherited Xiong Ba's talent and potential, and was able to become a Grandmaster at the age of 18, which already surpasses many martial arts masters.
"My strength has been restored? Thank you..."
You Ruo was extremely excited. She immediately spread her hands and looked at herself, completely unaware that her soaked dress revealed her stunning figure.
"It was just a small favor. By the way, today is your 18th birthday, so I'll give you this Youth Preservation Pill."
Jiang Bai coughed a few times, then took out a Youth-Preserving Pill from his backpack.
He only recently learned that Xiong Ba's only daughter, You Ruo, had just turned 18. He still had two Youth Preservation Pills left from his previous check-ins, which would come in handy now.
Jiang Bai felt that the Youth-Preserving Pill was something that young girls could not resist.
Which girl in the world doesn't love beauty?
Who doesn't wish to stay young forever?
as predicted.
During the ensuing conversation, when Youruo learned about the effects of the Youth-Preserving Pill, she jumped up excitedly, almost capsizing the small boat.
"Waaaah, you're so good to me."
After consuming the Youth-Preserving Pill, You Ruo burst into tears and instinctively threw herself into Jiang Bai's arms.
She lacked love growing up, and she is easily moved by even the slightest kindness shown to her.
Today, Jiang Bai took her out of the lakeside pavilion for a day of fun, and she even received a youth-preserving pill from Jiang Bai on her 18th birthday. At this moment, she felt as if she had found someone to rely on.
"This……"
Jiang Bai felt a little embarrassed, then patted You Ruo on the shoulder and began to comfort her: "It's okay, everything will be alright in the future. You're free now."
"Ok, I know."
You Ruo came to her senses. Actually, she wasn't stupid. She had already guessed that Jiang Bai was the current master of the World Society.
otherwise.
How could the other party remove the seal left by Xiong Ba for her in an instant?
However, she did not blame Jiang Bai. Her father, Xiong Ba, had committed many evil deeds over the years, and You Ruo was very clear about them. She felt that this was just karma and retribution.
The small boat glided across the lake, circling the small building in the center of the lake several times.
Unknowingly.
It's already midnight.
The moonlight shone on the lake, and the handsome man and beautiful woman, a perfect match made in heaven, eventually got together.
……
81173766 Early morning.
Jiang Bai didn't wake You Ruo. Instead, he used his true essence to dry his robe and cover her with it. Then, he opened the Multiverse Communication Group and clicked "ignore" on the 999+ unread messages.
What he didn't expect was.
As soon as I opened the multiverse communication group, I saw a series of review request messages. Someone was selling cultivation techniques again.
[Ding! A ten-year-old boy from Icefire Island is selling "Ladder to the Clouds," with a buyback price of 7000 points. Group owner, please review as soon as possible.]
[Ding! A ten-year-old boy from Icefire Island is selling "Tai Chi Swordplay". Buyback price is 10000 points. Group owner, please review as soon as possible.]

"What's going on? How come Zhang Wuji suddenly got it?"
Jiang Bai looked surprised, then glanced back at the chat history.
A ten-year-old boy from Icefire Island: "Is the group owner here? It's been ten days. Could you please review my cultivation technique?"
Qiao Feng: "I say, Brother Wuji, you're quite something, possessing so many martial arts manuals."
The ten-year-old boy from Icefire Island said, "According to the valuation given by the Myriad Realms Mall, it only adds up to 38,000 points, which is far less than what you have. I remember that the most expensive martial arts technique you sold before, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, was worth 20,000 points."
Qiao Feng: "That's for sure. The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms is my most prized martial art. To be honest, I think it's a bit undervalued to sell this palm technique for 20,000 points. (Grinning face)"
Qiao Feng: "Young brother, once the review is approved, could you lend me some points? I urgently need points to become stronger, as I've been locked up."
The ten-year-old boy from Icefire Island: "Sure, sure. You want to borrow a few thousand?"
Qiao Feng: "Lend me at least 1; anything less is useless to me."
The ten-year-old boy from Icefire Island said, "No, I don't have enough points to use. I'm planning to use them to exchange for a peerless divine skill. I also want to secretly become stronger."
Qiao Feng: "How about I teach you the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms for only 1 points? That's a fair price, isn't it? Hahaha. (Drinking.jpg)"
A ten-year-old boy from Ice and Fire Island: "The price is okay, I can consider it."
Just at this time.
