He didn't know where he came from, and he didn't know when he came to Bright Moon Tower. This was simply … Was his memory too poor?
A hint of seriousness appeared on Yu Lian's face. She looked at Qin Xuan sincerely and said, "I don't know where I came from. When I could remember, I was already living in the Bright Moon Tower."
Realizing that Yu Lian wasn't joking, a profound look appeared in Qin Xuan's eyes. It seems that Yu Lian's background was not simple. Someone sent her to the Bright Moon Tower, allowing her to grow up here.
Afterwards, Qin Xuan did not pursue the matter any further. Since Rain Lotus did not remember the past, then let her forget it. Perhaps, this was a good thing for her.
The two of them walked forward for a distance before they returned to the Bright Moon Restaurant. When they arrived at the Bright Moon Restaurant, Qin Xuan looked at Yu Lian and said with a smile, "Go back and rest."
"Right." Yullian nodded obediently and took a few steps forward. Suddenly, she stopped and turned back to Qin Xuan with a sweet smile, "Brother Qin, I'm actually surnamed Shangguan, Shangguan Yulian."
With that, Shangguan Yulian turned her head and walked forward quickly with a faint blush on her face.
"Shangguan Yulian, what a nice name." Qin Xuan muttered as he watched the girl leave. He couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
Just as he was about to return to his room to rest, an ice-cold energy landed on his body. At the same time, a cold voice rang in his head, "Leave Ming-Yue House immediately and don't alert anyone. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Many thoughts flashed through Qin Xuan's mind. The other party was a woman who was much stronger than him, but she did not have much killing intent towards him. Otherwise, she would have directly killed him instead of sending a sound transmission to him.
Therefore, Qin Xuan listened to the other party and quietly left the Bright Moon Tower. He continued to move up until he reached a void far away from the Bright Moon Tower.
"There's no one else here. Can you show yourself now, senior?" Qin Xuan asked the empty air.
The moment Qin Xuan's voice fell, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. It was a woman wearing a long white dress with her hair tied neatly behind her head. Her expression was as cold as ice, as if she was a beautiful woman from a thousand miles away, and no one dared to get close to her.
Qin Xuan looked at the lady in white and his face revealed a hint of surprise. He had seen this woman before today. She was the person in charge of all the fairies in Bright Moon Tower.
"Senior, what can I do for you?" Qin Xuan cupped his fists and asked. Although the other party looked to be very young, even to the point of being around his age, his cultivation had already reached the Saint Stage. It was obvious that he had cultivated for a long time compared to Qin Xuan, so calling him senior was not wrong.
The woman glanced at Qin Xuan and said, "In front of me, there is no need for you to hide your true identity."
As the woman's voice fell, Qin Xuan's eyes became slightly cold. His expression did not change as he said, "I don't understand what senior means."
"Not long ago, you were brilliant in West Heaven City. You were ranked 7th on the Azure Sky Ranking, and you defeated Shen Wuqing of the Sky Spill Pavilion. What kind of fame do you have? How come you're so low-key now?" The woman continued to speak as she stared at Qin Xuan. It was as if she could see through him.
Qin Xuan's heart trembled. First, there was a hint of shock in his eyes before he gradually calmed down. He looked towards the woman and said, "It seems that I haven't been deceived by senior. I wonder when senior will know my identity?"
"Your temperament speaks for itself." The tone of the lady was as calm as ever. How could a follower of the Vault of Heavenly Secrets possess such an extraordinary temperament?
"Just because of this?" Qin Xuan's brows twitched. Judging by his temperament alone, he was too careless. Furthermore, he couldn't be sure that he was Qin Xuan.
"His surname is Qin, and he appeared together with someone from the Hidden Heaven Pavilion. When others were comparing him to Qin Xuan, you couldn't help but voice your thoughts. Is this reason enough?"
With just one glance, Qin Xuan felt his entire body go ice-cold, as if he had fallen into an endless ice cave. His body couldn't help but shiver.
"Enough." Qin Xuan responded. At the same time, he thought of something and Genuine Essence began to surge crazily in his limbs and bones, dispersing the chill. Of course, this was because the woman had only given him a slight punishment and not a heavy blow.
The girl's eyes were filled with a bone-piercing coldness as she said, "In the future, stay away from her."
"She?" Qin Xuan was stunned, then he seemed to realize something and asked, "Is it the Rain Lotus?"
"Why ask when you already know the answer?" The woman looked at Qin Xuan coldly and said, "Your existence will bring change to her life and harm her."
"Does Senior know what she's thinking?" Qin Xuan suddenly asked the woman, causing her to freeze for a moment and not respond to Qin Xuan's words for a while.
"Senior should have watched her grow up, and I believe that she will not be harmed. However, she is no longer a child, and she has the Monarch Stage cultivation now, so if she doesn't even dare express the thoughts in her heart, then what's the point in growing up?" Qin Xuan continued to speak.
"She is still too weak and is not suited to come into contact with the outside world. When she becomes a little stronger, I will let her make her own choice. This is not something you can worry about." The woman said with an extremely calm expression. Her eyes were still filled with ill intent, as if she was accusing Qin Xuan of being nosy.
"This is just what senior thinks." Qin Xuan said lightly.
The lady's eyes flashed with a cold light. She glanced at Qin Xuan as she spoke without fear, "Earlier, I was walking with her. She told me that she doesn't know if she will have the chance to leave the Southern Immortal Region. It can be seen that she doesn't want to stay here any longer."
"Senior can definitely force her to stay here. This is to protect her. I don't have any objections, but I hope senior can respect her wishes. After all, she isn't the ignorant little girl from before." Qin Xuan said seriously to the woman. Although in his eyes, Shangguan Yushi was still like a girl.
The moment Qin Xuan finished speaking, the woman surprisingly did not refute him and fell into silence.
She wondered if she had been wrong to do so.
Her task was to bring up the young lady, so that she would not be disturbed by the outside world and would grow up carefree. However, no one told her what to do next.
Should he continue to protect her, or should he allow her to freely wander around?
