Chapter 204: A joke bet, traces of the spirit realm

As if sensing the gaze of the woman behind him, Li Ye did not turn around, but just asked:
"What are you thinking about?"

Li Qingmu's pretty face turned red as if she was seen through. She suppressed her restless heart and responded:

"Nothing, just when can you teach me the body training method and your swordsmanship?"

After making a few evasive remarks, she quickly changed the subject.

Li Ye laughed and did not continue to pester her. He followed Li Qingmu's words and said:

"Your current body is not yet capable of practicing the Heavenly Man Method directly. You still need some time to hone your skills. In addition, my swordsmanship is tough and fierce, which is not in line with your graceful and agile style. It will be useless for you if I teach it to you."

After listening to Li Ye's words, Li Qingmu realized that he had been deceived by him. Since you can't teach me, why do you use this as bait to lure me?
But Li Qingmu found that she was not angry at all, just a little bit of resentment arose in her heart. Before she could open her mouth, she heard Li Ye continue to speak.

"But I can help you improve your current swordsmanship. Swordsmanship is about intention, not form. It's good to learn from the strengths of many schools, but the most important thing is still yourself."

Li Qingmu had heard the principles that Li Ye talked about once from her master, Li Guangxiao, the Taoist Xiangtian. However, she was not at the level she is today at that time. Now, after hearing it again, she felt a little more enlightened.

Li Qingmu looked at this handsome, extremely talented and powerful young general, and his already uneasy heart was now filled with ripples.

"Got it, thank you."

"It doesn't matter."

“This road, there is also a waterway from the south of Xiangqing Mountain into the North District.”

After walking for several days, Li Ye estimated their walking speed and time and found out where they were now. They had reached a fork in the road.

Li Ye rode on a white horse, raised his hand and pointed forward, saying with certainty.

Li Qingmu looked at Li Ye and tilted his head slightly:

"How did you know? Didn't you say this was your first time walking this way? Are you lying to me?"

"Ha ha……"

Li Ye looked at the road ahead and said with a smile:

"No, I haven't been there, but I've looked at the map and I remember correctly. At our current speed, we'll reach the fork in half an hour."

With the purpose of teasing Li Qingmu, he turned his head to look at Li Qingmu, who was wearing a white dress, and asked with a smile:

"If you don't believe it, how about it?"

Seeing his confident look, Li Qingmu suddenly remembered that Li Ye was a famous young genius. For someone like him, memorizing a map might not be a difficult task.

During the past few days, although it was a dull day with Li Ye hunting and she cooking along the way, Li Ye's occasional guidance on cultivation made her understand the actual operation and she felt that her strength was slowly improving.

Therefore, after the two people became more familiar with each other, Li Qingmu completely abandoned her image as an ice beauty. In Li Ye's eyes, she was an absolute enchantress.

In addition, Li Qingmu has a rather stubborn personality. After Li Ye's words were put here, could she just obediently nod and get away with it?

Let's bet! Who's afraid of who?
She rolled up her sleeves, galloped forward, turned back and shouted to Li Ye:
"I'll go take a look ahead first. If it's not what I told you, wait for me to come back! How am I going to deal with you?"

Li Ye listened to her clear and pleasant voice without saying anything, nor did he ask what she would do if what he said was right.

He just nodded, and then watched Li Qingmu, dressed in snow-white clothes, riding a horse and disappearing at the end of the road.

The steed below snorted, and it was obvious that it was in a good mood. Its eyes fell on the snow-white horse that had disappeared with Li Qingmu in the distance. The horse of dreams...

Li Ye was alone for a while, and without the fairy who was pleasing to the eye and chat with him, his thoughts drifted away involuntarily.

As he floated, he thought of the people around him.

Yaye, Diao Lingyun, Yang Luoqi, Sun Zhantian
“Will they miss me?”

Diao Lingyun and Sun Zhantian are both heroic women, and they should be doing their own things.

Yaye, Yang Luoqi might be it. Speaking of which, I haven’t seen Yaye for a long time.

Half an hour later, the white-skirted female warrior rode her horse dejectedly, falling behind Li Ye, and followed him slowly on horseback. Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes also became more depressed and less lively.

It was obvious that Li Qingmu had lost completely in this gamble on whether there was a fork in the road ahead.

Just a while ago, when she rode her horse at full speed and saw the tributary of Qingjiang River surging on another path with bursts of roars, her pretty little face suddenly fell.

Faced with Li Ye's photographic memory, she was completely defeated.

"Go ahead, I'm a girl of my word. If I lose, I lose."

Li Qingmu pursed her lips. Li Ye was in front of her with a smile on his face, humming a little tune. He didn't see the wonderful moment he wanted to see, nor did he answer her question.

"?"

When Li Qingmu saw that Li Ye did not respond to her, she thought that Li Ye must be thinking of some bad ideas, trying to take advantage of her in a roundabout way. Then she kicked the horse's belly, rode to his side, frowned, and looked at him.

"Don't make excessive demands!"

Listening to her angry words, Li Ye expressed his innocence. He spread his hands, looked at the bright and charming Miss Lu next to him, and said:
"I am a gentleman, how could I have any evil intentions? How about this, I will let you take care of the food on the road, how about that?"

Li Qingmu pinched his smooth chin, thought for a moment, and nodded very reluctantly.

"walk slowly."

At this moment, Li Ye suddenly turned over and got off the horse, which made Li Qingmu puzzled. Then she subconsciously clamped her legs together to prevent Li Ye from squatting down and looking up at the stars.

Li Ye squatted down as expected, but he did not look up to the side. Instead, he frowned and looked at the ruts on the road.

"Is there something wrong with this track? There were tracks like this all along the way..."

Li Qingmu asked the man below about his strange behavior.

"Of course there is. The soil is too fresh, and it was obviously turned over by the wheels... and the indentation is a bit deep, as if something heavy was transported..."

Li Ye answered while looking at the darker colored soil beside the ruts.

"Since you are transporting heavy objects, why don't you take the main road, but choose this small road?"

Li Qingmu followed his line of thought and found that it was indeed a bit strange, but she didn't think much about it.

"Maybe it's on the way, or some other special situation."

Li Ye sensed the special aura and said in a deep voice:
"This is the unique aura of the Spirit Realm!"
