Chapter 165 Ordinary Friends
The next morning, when Nangong Chan walked out of the room, she immediately became the focus of all the girls' attention.
In the past, she always presented herself as aloof.
She wore a tight black dress and had her hair in a simple ponytail. Her eyes were calm, as peaceful as a deep lake, giving people a sense of "keep away from me" from a distance.
Today, she changed into a plain dress for the first time.
It was a white palace dress, simple and elegant yet luxurious, with flower petals embroidered on the hem of the skirt. She still had a simple ponytail with a silver hairpin inserted diagonally on it. The lifelike butterfly wings at the end of the hairpin slowly trembled as she walked, as if a real butterfly was resting on it.
This is not a demon witch at all, but more like a fairy who is not of this world.
Today's Miss Nangong is more beautiful than they had ever imagined.
Two completely opposite temperaments can actually appear in the same person.
All the women present were top-notch in terms of talent and appearance, but when they saw her, they couldn't help but show surprise on their faces. God really gave her the best things without any hesitation.
Emei is a holy place for female cultivators and it is impossible to visit it all in just one day.
Today they continued to visit the Emei market, but Senior Sister Qin did not follow them. She did not like crowds and did not want to be watched by the Emei disciples, so she stayed alone in Yuzhen Peak to practice.
Today, Li Yu and his friends were much quieter.
Senior Sister Qin was not around, and the witch changed her clothes. Even he was stunned for a moment when he saw her. People who were not familiar with her could not recognize her at all.
They bought a lot of fairy clothes yesterday, and today they were looking at accessories.
There are many kinds of accessories for female cultivators, many of which, in addition to being decorative, also have offensive and defensive functions. However, those that can be sold in stores are generally only suitable for the Qi Refining Stage, or at most the Foundation Establishment Stage. More powerful magical instruments will need to be customized from high-level refiners.
There were so many kinds of accessories in the store that Li Yu was dazzled.
After just a casual glance, Li Yu had to admit that the craftsmanship of the weapon refiners in Emei was much better than his. Whether in terms of craftsmanship or style, he could not compare with them.
From this perspective, the hairpin he gave to the witch was actually a bit shabby.
Zhou Zixuan took a fancy to a hairpin with two intertwined phoenix feathers at the top and a very luxurious pattern carved on it. After buying it, she did not wear it herself, but walked to Nangong Chan and said with a smile: "This hairpin suits Miss Nangong's temperament very well. I'll give it to Miss Nangong..."
I have to say, women are more professional in this kind of thing.
Li Yu also felt that this hairpin suited the witch very well. The phoenix feather was elegant and majestic, and it matched her black clothes very well.
Nangong Chan was a little surprised. She could feel that Li Yu’s Taoist partner had never liked her very much. When she went to Yuxuan Peak before, she always hid How could she actually take the initiative to give her a gift today?
After a moment of confusion, she accepted the hairpin and politely said, "Thank you."
When passing by a shop, Jiang Li saw a hairpin that was exactly the same as the one Nangong Chan was wearing. The head of the hairpin was also made of extremely thin cicada wings, but the workmanship was obviously more exquisite than the one she was wearing now.
Senior Sister Zhou had already told her about Miss Nangong and Li Yu, and she felt that she needed to express her gratitude.
She bought the hairpin and gave it to Nangong Chan, saying, "Miss Nangong, do you like butterfly hairpins? This hairpin is for you."
Nangong Chan was really flattered today . First it was Zhou Zixuan, and then it was Jiang Li, Li Yu's Taoist partner. Why was he so nice to her today?
And this was just the beginning. After that, as she went along, she received earrings, bracelets, hairpins, bangles, etc. from them one after another. Xu Qingxin and the others were full of confusion, wondering why they were so enthusiastic about Nangong Chan.
Nangong Chan was already beautiful enough today, and with the embellishment of these accessories, she was even more dazzling. Along the way, she attracted the attention of the female disciples of Emei.
Even from a woman's perspective, this woman is incredibly beautiful.
However, what puzzled the girls was that although Nangong Chan wore a lot of new jewelry, the hairpin on her head was not replaced, even though the same hairpin that Jiang Li gave her was more exquisite.
After two days of getting along, although the girls were not close to the Saint of Demonic Path, the initial estrangement had disappeared invisibly.
After getting a little familiar with her, Bai Qingying looked at the hairpin on her head and asked, "This hairpin should be given to you by someone very important to Miss Nangong, right?"
Nangong Chan glanced at Li Yu and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Bai Qingying said: "The workmanship of this hairpin itself is not very delicate. It should have been made by someone who is not very familiar with refining equipment. And there is obviously a better hairpin of the same style, but Miss Nangong has been unwilling to replace it. So I guess this hairpin must have special meaning to Miss Nangong."
Nangong Chan felt a little sweet in her heart, but she subconsciously denied it: "It's not very important... just an ordinary friend."
Bai Qingying smiled and said, "Maybe to Miss Nangong, that person is just an ordinary friend, but in that person's heart, Miss Nangong's position must be very important."
Nangong Chan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"
Bai Qingying looked at the hairpin and said, "Every piece of jewelry has a special meaning. The tassel part of this hairpin is the moon and stars, which obviously means the moon is surrounded by stars. Miss Nangong should know that her name itself means the moon..."
Bai Qingying grew up in Emei, and was influenced by the design of fairy clothes and accessories, so she saw the meaning of this hairpin at a glance.
She continued, "All the stars are like the moon, and the one being raised must be Miss Nangong. Doesn't this show the status of Miss Nangong in his heart? Butterflies often fly together and live together, symbolizing love. If I'm not mistaken, this should be a gift from a man to Miss Nangong, right?"
Li Yu was stunned listening nearby.
He thought of the moon. This was originally her exclusive gift to the witch.
The stars are supporting the moon...
He really didn't expect it at the time.
He felt that just a moon was boring, and since he had a lot of materials left, he added a few stars to make it look better.
As for the fact that butterflies symbolize love, is there such a saying in this world?
Nangong Chan was also stunned when she heard this.
Does this hairpin have such a deep meaning?
As if she had thought of something, her heartbeat inexplicably accelerated, but her expression did not change. She waved her hand and said, "You misunderstood, we are just ordinary friends..."
Bai Qingying smiled slightly and said, "Maybe I really am overthinking it."
But she was wondering in her heart, what kind of man could win Miss Nangong's heart. A hairpin is not something that can be given lightly. Accepting it means rolling up your hair for the man. Even if Miss Nangong doesn't know this, would she treasure it so much if it was given by an ordinary friend?
She glanced at Li Yu.
He is undoubtedly the biggest suspect.
…
After staying in Emei for two days, Li Yu plans to set off back to Kunlun tomorrow. He will first send them back to the sect, and then go to Xuanyin Sect to make elixirs.
The Xuanyin Sect has accumulated hundreds of years of experience. At the current speed, he will need at least another year to practice.
During this year, most of the time had to be spent in the Xuanyin Sect.
It seemed like a year was wasted, but in fact it saved him countless years of hard training.
Li Yu looked inside his Dantian. All five golden pills, without exception, had two lines. The first line was very deep, and the color of the second line was very close to the first. He had only been refining pills for the Xuanyin Sect for two months. In terms of mana, he had surpassed the demon girl and Senior Sister Qin.
There were footsteps coming from behind, and the witch walked up to him and said, "After we go home tomorrow, let's go fishing for silverfish..."
Li Yu didn't even look at her, shook his head and said, "No."
Nangong Chan was stunned: "Why?"
Li Yu said calmly: "I don't go fishing with ordinary friends..."
…
The second day.
Before leaving Emei, Li Yu left enough elixirs for Senior Sister Bai and the three sisters to form elixirs for their five spiritual veins, and then took the girls back to Kunlun.
After staying in Kunlun for another day, he and the demon girl boarded the spirit boat to the Xuanyin Sect again the next day.
Inside the cabin of the spirit boat, the witch walked into the cabin and Li Yu walked out of the cabin.
The witch walked out and he walked in again.
Nangong Chan stood at the bow of the boat with a look of regret on her face.
The two Yuanying ancestors of the Xuanyin Sect looked at each other.
Last time it was the Saint Maiden, and this time it was the Young Master.
Young people nowadays.
A moment later, Nangong Chan walked into the cabin again. When Li Yu was about to come out, she grabbed his wrist in time, looked up at him pitifully, and said, "I was wrong. It's a very important friend, and it's not enough..."
