The most important thing is that the Bai siblings are top-notch talents. Since they are not taking the path of a Noble Family, they need to plan early for their path in a Sect.
As the saying goes, the mountains of White Emperor City and the waters of Jiangning.
The most famous mountain in White Emperor City is none other than Langya Mountain, as it is named after the Langya, one of the Lower Nine Sects...
"Need me to pass on a message for you?"
Due to Elder Feng's loose mouth, Han Yu hasn't even dared to meet Bai Junya face-to-face until now. Whenever they see each other from a distance, they both flee in panic, a fact that Bai Jingliang is well aware of.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come down himself, but would have sent Han Yu up.
From afar, Han Yu gazed at that alluring figure, seemingly at a loss for words, and finally shook his head.
"Then have this!"
Bai Jingliang suddenly pulled out a small box, exquisite and delicate, with a hint of a rouge scent.
Han Yu was taken aback, accepting it dazedly and said, "You're being so courteous."
If not, maybe he could give him one of the two pills?
Bai Jingliang rolled his eyes at him and grumbled, "How could a grown man give another grown man this thing? My sister asked me to give it to you."
After saying this, he suddenly looked curious and urged, "Open it and see what's inside?"
Han Yu paused, and couldn't help but look towards the ship. Bai Junya seemed to sense something and also looked up, making both their faces flush red as they lowered their heads simultaneously.
"Hurry up, don't dawdle."
Bai Jingliang kept urging from the side.
With unprecedented seriousness, Han Yu carefully opened the small box, revealing a white piece of silk paper inside.
"A message?"
His sister had something to say but didn't do it in person and left a message?
Bai Jingliang's expression was peculiar.
Han Yu evidently thought the same. He gently picked up the silk paper, turned it guardedly, and was momentarily stunned.
He thought it was Bai Junya's writing, but when he opened it, it was a reproduced painting, the ink still fresh, presumably painted in the last few days.
Han Yu wouldn't have found it strange if it were a painting, but the silk clearly depicted a map, with the words White Emperor City most prominently written.
Bai Jingliang looked particularly conflicted, both curious and not daring to peep. After hesitating for a while, he couldn't resist peeking, and after discovering it was a map, his expression turned odd.
He's seen girls give sachets, jewelry, and even poems, but what does gifting a map mean?
But then he saw the sudden smile on Han Yu's face. What kind of silent understanding did these two have?
"Tell your sister for me, I will go."
Now, Han Yu knew what to ask him to relay, but unfortunately, he had nothing worthy of giving in return.
"Inverted Dragon and Phoenix Pill."
The Little Artifact Spirit was nosily persistent, wanting to see Han Yu's lively situation.
"Get lost."
Han Yu muttered under his breath and watched as Bai Jingliang waved and flew onto the ship using sword control.
"One, two, pull!"
The boatmen called out in unison, pulling up the anchor, and the pleasure boat began to move, sailing with the current.
Han Yu watched it drift further and further away from a distance.
As the ship left the shores of Tianning Prefecture, and Han Yu's figure was no longer visible, Bai Jingliang looked puzzledly at his sister, who was still looking out over the river from the railing.
"In the end, you didn't manage to say a word to each other."
Bai Junya's ears turned slightly red, but she smiled sweetly, "There's no need to speak."
Not understanding, he could only mumble and then went to comfort the sullen Lily sitting on the deck in the distance.
Lily had been found at the old Bai Mansion site after they returned from Qin Family Castle, the poor little girl was often forgotten and left behind.
After the pleasure boat docks at the next prefecture to the south, they would part ways, and Lily would continue south by boat while their path to White Emperor City lay eastward. So, since boarding the ship, Lily had been in low spirits.
She had thought that after resolving all the trouble, she could follow her sister Junya back to the Star Sect.
It took Bai Jingliang a considerable effort to Finally see her smiling again by promising to visit her with company when he had time.
Bai Junya's memories of Han Yu weren't many, perhaps it was the encounter on the ship back then, or him holding her in the teahouse, or when he kicked open the Qin Family gate to pull up her weeping self...
The scenes weren't numerous, flashing repeatedly, but finally stopping at the moment in the sea of fire when Han Yu pulled her into his arms, desperately protecting her.
At that time, seeing Han Yu dusty but cradling her as he scrambled to his feet, she also felt a strange sensation.
Just like Han Yu described, that feeling of "suddenly feeling a tightness in the chest!"
Today they were leaving Tianning, and who knows when they would meet again, she was a bit worried the time would be too long, so she did the most embarrassing thing of her life.
When she saw Han Yu open the box from afar, she actually wanted to rush into the cabin to scream under the covers in embarrassment.
Yet she still stood there with a flushed face, observing. She wanted to see Han Yu's reaction, sometimes shyly fearing he would understand, sometimes worrying he wouldn't.
The box was a rouge box, the paper was a map she brought along...
Bailu River no longer saw the shadow of the ship, and Han Yu sighed with a hint of loneliness.
"If you're so longing, why not just go along? Who are you sighing for?"
The Little Artifact Spirit grumbled in his mind.
"How can I follow? They're moving house, would you dare? Didn't you see her parents' strange looks at me?"
