Kapitel 51: Chapter 11: My Martial Sister Can't Be So Reasonable!
Su Youwei's heart wavered momentarily until Bai Lian emerged from the old house.
"正."
What an elegant script!
What powerful words!
Could she truly embody such a notion?
Her heart weighed heavily, burdened like iron, her spirit wearied as a parched steed on a lengthy journey.
How could she truly uphold the spirit of righteousness, as Bai Lian suggested? Could she bear the weight of this responsibility?
But perhaps returning the inscription to Bai Lian was a better course of action.
The burden was too great—could she truly embody such a concept?
Her internal struggle intensified, her soul weary, her thoughts tumultuous.
Yet Bai Lian's exit from the old house refocused her attention.
"正."
What a fitting sentiment, so elegantly displayed.
Could Bai Lian truly uphold such a principle? Her actions as she turned with her sword seemed to affirm it.
Perhaps her sincerity was genuine, and not a facade.
But Su Youwei's doubts persisted.
She glanced at her aunt and fifth elder resting on the flying sword. Regardless of Bai Lian's motivations, they were not alone in this journey.
The weight of her past and the allure of vengeance were real, but Su Youwei vowed not to succumb to her inner demons.
Gently caressing the "正" on her wrist, Su Youwei decided to leave it for now. She wanted to test whether this inscription could truly anchor her in moments of turmoil. If it worked, she'd inscribe another word to guide her.
Bai Lian emerged from the old house, stowing away the Dirt Free Sword in her pendant.
Xia Qingqing eagerly approached, her gaze inadvertently trailing behind Bai Lian.
"Where's the woman who was in distress? Is she...?" Xia Qingqing trailed off, unable to voice her concern.
Bai Lian clarified, "She was unconscious when I arrived. She'll awaken shortly, likely believing her ordeal was a dream."
Relief washed over Xia Qingqing. She had feared the worst, envisioning Bai Lian's decisive action extending to the woman as well.
Understanding her concern, Bai Lian had deftly averted unnecessary bloodshed.
The group continued their journey, each step fraught with tension as they remained vigilant against further encounters with Red Moon Sect disciples.
Bai Lian's proficiency and finesse in dispatching adversaries caught Xia Qingqing's admiration.
Her dexterity and calm under pressure were awe-inspiring.
Xia Qingqing couldn't help but compare herself to Bai Lian and lament her own inadequacy.
The reality of Bai Lian's scolding began to dawn on her. It was an effort to mold her into a stronger individual.
In a bid to challenge Bai Lian's rationale, Xia Qingqing mustered her courage and raised her hand.
A spark of defiance flickered, but it soon dwindled, and her inquiry lacked conviction.
"Shouldn't we treat everyone equally?" Xia Qingqing began tentatively, her resolve waning.
As she spoke, her momentum waned, and her question seemed more like a murmur.
The system task materialized once again, frequent and persistent. Bai Lian hadn't encountered such frequency before, even from Elder Gaoyi.
Bai Lian felt a sense of duty to fulfill the system's intent, even if it required scolding Xia Qingqing again.
"Very well, you want a word too?" Bai Lian responded, meeting Xia Qingqing's uncertain gaze.
Xia Qingqing extended her hand, unsure of what to expect. Curiosity danced in the eyes of Su Youwei and even the jade rabbit.
Bai Lian's index finger moved with precision, etching a character onto Xia Qingqing's wrist. The sensation momentarily left Xia Qingqing stunned.
As Bai Lian withdrew her hand, a mixture of reluctance and confusion painted Xia Qingqing's expression.
"What does it say?" She inquired, her eyes drifting down to her wrist.
A square character "傻" (stupid) met her gaze.
Xia Qingqing's reaction was swift, a blend of surprise and indignation.
"Ah..."
Bai Lian's words resonated.
Elder Martial Brother Zhao appeared at an intersection, his presence marking a long-awaited reunion.
Xia Qingqing rushed forward, her exasperation at his tardiness apparent.
"Elder Martial Brother Zhao! What took you so long?"
Embarrassment tinged his expression as he rubbed the back of his head, explaining his delay.
"I encountered some delays on the way here."
Xia Qingqing's disappointment was palpable, but Bai Lian's intervention halted her impending admonishment.
"Martial Sister Xia, it's not polite to greet your Martial Brother in such a manner," Bai Lian chided, surprising both Xia Qingqing and Elder Martial Brother Zhao.
Bai Lian's stern tone was met with an unexpected shift in Xia Qingqing's demeanor.
"I apologize, Elder Martial Brother Zhao. It was my fault," Xia Qingqing replied meekly, her change in attitude leaving Elder Martial Brother Zhao dumbfounded.
This newfound humility was unlike the Xia Qingqing he knew.
Xia Qingqing persisted, making an earnest attempt to explain Bai Lian's intentions.
Bai Lian, despite her harshness, had been acting out of concern.
Elder Martial Brother Zhao was left speechless, struggling to comprehend the transformed dynamics.
Bai Lian, a reputed figure from the Duxian Sect, had exhibited a depth of character that both surprised and impressed him.
He exchanged a few words with Bai Lian, expressing his gratitude for her assistance and the change he observed in Xia Qingqing.
As Bai Lian and her companions continued their journey, Elder Martial Brother Zhao watched them depart, his admiration for Bai Lian solidified.
