Chapter 314 – Do you like him? (1)

Ning Xuemo felt a little embarrassed. Of course, she wouldn’t get into a confrontation over a measly favor.

She took the opportunity to pry Ji Yunhuang’s hand off and walked away.

Ji Yunhuang stared blankly at her with his mouth opened as if he wanted to say something, appearing worried about something. However, in the end, he couldn’t utter a word. After a moment, he only spoke a few words to Ning Xuemo, “Xuemo, be careful…”

Ning Xuemo didn’t turn back. She only made a waving gesture behind her back, signalling that she had understood him.

Finally, she looked at the painting that Han Shanyue had just drawn. The sight of it suddenly gripped her heart!

The painting was that of an incomplete scenery of a mountain range with numerous peaks. The peaks had all kind of different heights with their summit covered in clouds and mist. Within the encirclement of mountain peaks, there was a waterfall. Beside it, there was a terrain filled with weird shaped stones…

‘This… This looks just like the scenery on the 9th Peak of Heavenly Book Mountains after the protection barrier surrounding the lake had vanished!’

Ning Xuemo lifted her eyes to look at Great Master Han Shanyue near her. From her position, his facial traits were still as obscured as before. Unexpectedly, despite their close distance, Ning Xuemo was still unable to make out what his face looked like at all.

A thought suddenly popped into Ning Xuemo’s mind.

‘Great Master Han Shanyue couldn’t be a transformation of Jiu Zun, right?!’

The thought scared her as she couldn’t help but give a few more glances at Han Shanyue.

However, Han Shanyue didn’t spare her a glance. He only instructed her, “Grind the ink stone.”

His palm fell on the incomplete painting. In a flash, the painting vanished into white smoke without leaving a trace.

Ning Xuemo asked, “Why did you destroy the painting?” She somewhat felt it was a pity. The painting had both harmony and soul in it. After looking at it for the first time, she couldn’t help taking a second look. Even after she looked at it for the second time, she had the illusion that she was sucked into the painting and stood inside it…
