131: A confession in the name of a sword

At dusk, Gu Yuan walked out of his room, looking somewhat like a guilty thief.

He carefully looked left and right, and upon seeing that no one seemed to be paying attention, he finally breathed a sigh of relief Qi.

Tonight, Xi Nian and Tian Mei seemed to have some secrets to share, so the two of them were sleeping together.

To be honest, if he didn't have an appointment with Luoying, Gu Yuan would have definitely joined in.

After all, when it comes to secrets and such, it's better if three people talk together.

Gu Yuan shook his head and left the small courtyard the next moment.

However, after he left, a figure appeared in the courtyard.

She looked at Gu Yuan's departing back, pouted her lips, and gave a light snort.

"Stinking Gu Yuan, I knew you were going to find Revered Master, how hateful...!"

This person was none other than Yun Qingci.

However, at this moment, the expression on Yun Qingci's face was very complex.

She didn't know what she was thinking, but in the end, she just lightly stomped her foot on the ground and then returned to her room... Gu Yuan arrived at Di Luoying's room with practiced ease.

Well, if there was one place in the Liyue Sword Sect he was most familiar with, it was Luoying's residence.

When Gu Yuan arrived in Di Luoying's room, he found that she was already waiting for him.

It was just that... Gu Yuan curled his lips in slight disappointment.

Why wasn't she wearing that Ruqun from earlier today? It looked so good.

Seeing Gu Yuan arrive, Di Luoying wrapped her long robe tighter around herself and said coldly:

"Since you're here, why are you just standing there in a daze? Do I have to invite you to sit down?"

Uh... Gu Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this and gave a sheepish smile.

How is she still Life Qi?

Gu Yuan cleared his throat, sat down beside her, and then skillfully caught her little hands.

"Luoying, why are you dressed so tightly in the middle of the night, ahaha..."

Di Luoying pursed her lips and gave him an annoyed glance.

She knew exactly what was on this fellow's mind.

Looking at her hand being held tightly by him, Di Luoying tried to break free.

But she couldn't pull away, so in the end, she could only let him hold it.

"Why aren't you going to find your Little Saintess Xi Nian, or that Tian Mei? What are you doing here with me?"

Good grief, look at that, the jealousy is almost filling the entire room.

Looking at the Sword Immortal before him, who was pouting with an 'I am very Life Qi, come coax me quickly' expression, Gu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.

"You, what are you laughing at!?"

Di Luoying saw Gu Yuan's smile and asked with some embarrassment and annoyance.

She felt as if all her little thoughts had been seen through by Gu Yuan.

This usually cold and aloof Sword Immortal felt extremely shy in her heart right now.

Gu Yuan shook his head slightly at her words, took her small hand, and brought it to his lips for a gentle kiss.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt a bit dazed. To think that a woman as cold and aloof as Luoying belongs to me... it feels a bit surreal."

Gu Yuan murmured to himself.

After all, a woman like Luoying would have been someone he could never touch in his previous life.

Hearing Gu Yuan's sudden sentiment, Di Luoying's heart softened a bit.

Her originally tsundere expression also became a bit softer now.

"Why the sudden surge of such melancholy? Gu Yuan, at this moment and in the future, I will always be by your side."

Di Luoying turned her hand to hold Gu Yuan's large hand and spoke softly.

Long ago, during her time with Gu Yuan, Di Luoying's long-frozen Sword Heart had been gradually melted by him.

Now, Di Luoying's pure Sword Heart was completely filled with Gu Yuan's figure.

In other words, to Di Luoying, Gu Yuan was her Sword Dao.

Gu Yuan gave a soft hum, then with a gentle tug, pulled Di Luoying into his arms.

He rested his chin on Di Luoying's head, holding her tightly.

"Luoying, to have won your heart is the greatest fortune of my life."

Di Luoying pursed her lips; she could feel Gu Yuan's overflowing love for her.

This caused the corners of her mouth to turn up slightly, and the jealousy in her heart had long since vanished.

Gu Yuan was sniffing the delicate fragrance from the woman's body in his arms when he suddenly heard Di Luoying's slightly shy voice.

"Gu Yuan, you... um... take off my long robe..."

Eh...?

Gu Yuan blinked upon hearing this. What did Luoying mean?

Although he was surprised, Gu Yuan's hands moved very quickly.

After all, he was always willing to listen to such requests.

Once Gu Yuan removed the long robe from Luoying's body, he saw what was underneath.

It was exactly the Ruqun Gu Yuan had seen during the day.

"Eh...! Luoying, you, you're wearing it!?"

Gu Yuan said with great pleasant surprise.

In Gu Yuan's arms, Di Luoying shyly covered her face upon hearing his surprised voice.

When she saw how much Gu Yuan liked this Ruqun during the day, she had already had this thought.

And later, Gu Yuan had even leaned into her ear and asked her to wear it.

Well... although she didn't want to pay him any mind at the time.

But for some reason, when night came, Di Luoying still ended up putting on the Ruqun as if possessed.

It's just that... as if to hide her strange and subtle emotions.

Di Luoying had put on a long robe in a fit of self-deception.

Just now, when she saw Gu Yuan arrive, she had wrapped the robe tightly around her to prevent him from discovering what she was wearing underneath.

"My little Luoying really is the most obedient. Come, let me have a good look~"

Gu Yuan gave Di Luoying's cheek a loving kiss.

Then, he impatiently had her turn around and stand before him.

At this moment, soft moonlight spilled into the room, making it seem very tranquil.

As this contemporary Sword Immortal wore the soft Ruqun with the moonlight bathing her, Gu Yuan felt as if a goddess had descended to the mortal realm.

"Luoying... you are so beautiful..."

Gu Yuan said blankly.

Facing this scene, he had no flowery words to describe it, only the simplest ones: beautiful.

Seeing how much Gu Yuan liked it, Di Luoying's face couldn't help but flush with a bit more color.

In the next moment, a long sword appeared in her hand.

"Gu Yuan, tonight... I want you to see my dance."

Di Luoying holding the long sword, spoke softly, her voice trembling slightly.

"This is a Sword Dance I perform for you alone. In the past, present, and future, you are the only one who will see it."

With that, Di Luoying, dressed in the Ruqun, danced gracefully with the long sword under the quiet moonlight.

Unlike her usual sharp and proud divine sword that pointed to the heavens.

At this moment, Di Luoying's sword displayed only infinite tenderness and affection.

Because this was her unique way of confessing.

Yes, this performance by the Sword Immortal under the moonlight tonight.

Was Di Luoying's confession to Gu Yuan.

A confession in the name of the sword.
