Initial Volume: Reborn in a Different World, Blooming Youth 2016 Heart Racing

  "Qin er, how do you feel?"

  Ling Jinlan saw the sparkling light in her eyes, like a river of stars in the pitch-black night sky.

  "It feels better than ever!"

  Ruan Qincen's smile was like a lotus flower in clear water, and her beauty was captivating as she turned around with a smile that could charm hundreds.

  For a moment, Ling Jinlan was slightly stunned, and even her breathing stopped for a few seconds.

  Qin is really dazzling at this moment!

  "One flower, one world; one leaf, one pursuit. One melody, one sigh; a lifetime for one person."

  Perhaps it was the lights that were too dazzling, perhaps it was the night that was too beautiful.

  It was just that moment of gaze, which made him feel dizzy and his heart racing. It turned out that in an instant, the little girl he had loved like a younger sister had grown up to be so stunningly beautiful, captivating and peerless!

  A frown and a smile can both stir his heart.

  Or perhaps, in the daily interactions of past years, his doting and pampering of her had long since turned into a subtle affection. Only, he had never realized it!

  "Let me see!"

  Ling Jinlan stretched out his hand, his slender fingertips gently falling onto her wrist. He listened carefully to her jumping pulse, not as weak and feeble as before, for the first time feeling that her pulse was beating so clearly.

  "Huh? Such a pure and thick inner power, Qiner has never practiced martial arts before, how can she have such strong inner power?"

  Ruan Qincheng saw him holding his own hand in a daze, waving his fingers in front of his eyes. The bright and shiny pupils sparkled with an enchanting light in the candlelight. The red lips close at hand were like enticing cherries, intoxicating people's hearts.

  Ling Jinlan caught a whiff of the faint scent of lotus flowers and suddenly came back to her senses. Seeing the captivating red lips in front of her, her cheeks immediately flushed with a shy blush. Her heart racing violently, it seemed as if it would jump out of her chest at any moment. She stumbled backward two steps, quickly retreating behind him.

  "Haha!"

  Ruan Qincheng couldn't help but laugh out loud at his frantic appearance, her heavenly laughter piercing straight to the bone.

  "Qin'er, don't make fun of your brother!"

  Ling Jinlan helplessly shook his head. Ever since that day when he went to the War King's mansion, he felt that Qincen had changed. Now he could confirm that this girl was no longer foolish at all. Perhaps it was because the strange poison from that day just happened to suppress the Gu poison, allowing her to recover normally.

  However, nowadays Qiner always makes him feel restless and unable to control himself!

  How can this be good?

  "Right, this is the 'Ethereal Sword Manual' passed down by Master. He once said that you are his first disciple. If it weren't for you, Master wouldn't have come out of seclusion either. In terms of seniority, you're actually the eldest sister! Now that you've recovered, I'll pass on this sword manual to you on behalf of Master."

  Ling Jinlan handed her a set of swordsmanship manuals, explaining them in detail. The warm orange candlelight cast on his handsome face, outlining sharp features and exuding an air of elegance that made one feel at ease.

  Ruan Qincheng was already very familiar with ancient martial arts, having received various devilish training in her past life, including the study of ancient martial arts. Her mastery of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting was for the purpose of carrying out tasks, while her study of medicine and toxicology was for survival. Human potential is boundless; she wasn't a genius to begin with, she just had one more ounce of determination and obsession than ordinary people.

  Strive to live on and make herself stronger, only because she wants to find her only relative. She knows the enemy is too powerful and she can't resist.

  But she can strive hard, pay a thousand times, a hundred times more effort, just to fulfill the promise made in front of her parents' spirits!

  She didn't want hatred to fill her heart, she just wanted to live a peaceful life with her brother. But even this small wish was not fulfilled by heaven!

  Ruan Qincheng shook her head, and a hint of sadness floated in her eyes. She concentrated on listening to Ling Jinlan's explanation, relying on her past memories, she quickly grasped the key points. Her ability to learn was truly astonishing to him. Seeing that she could follow his demonstration, mimicking the basic sword moves of "Xiao Xiao Jian Jue" perfectly, he felt a few strands of admiration amidst his surprise.

  "It's dawn already, Qiner. I'll send you back to the manor to rest! It was all because your brother didn't consider things thoroughly enough; your body has just recovered from illness and needs to be well taken care of."

  Ling Jinlan reached out to brush away the bangs that had fallen in front of her forehead, letting out a soft sigh filled with tenderness. He walked over to the bookshelf and retrieved an ancient tome from within a hidden compartment.

  "By the way, this 'Wan Wu Yi Yuan' records various medicinal materials and prescriptions. If you have time, take a look!"

  "Hmm!"

  Ruan Qinchun's eyes lit up with surprise and delight as she happily accepted the book and carefully tucked it away.

  "Let's go!"

  Two people walked out of the courtyard, and the gentle breeze brought in the moist morning mist. A thread of gold at the horizon, like ink dripping into water, slowly spread out. The overcast sky added a few more brilliant colors.

  In the Imperial City, peach blossoms are in full bloom, as far as the eye can see, it's all purple paths and brocade, a scene of prosperity.

  Suddenly, a sense of crisis arose from her heart, and Ruan Qincheng's face turned slightly cold.

  There's a killing aura around here!

  "Be careful, Qiner!"

  Ling Jinlan reached out with one hand and pulled her into his arms, shielding her behind him.

  A poisonous arrow flew over with a "whoosh" sound, and the strong energy was absorbed into the ground, emitting waves of white smoke.

  "Since you're here, show yourself! Why hide and seek?"

  Ling Jinlan's gentle and elegant voice took on a hint of coldness. With a flash of silver light in her hand, she accurately shot towards the hiding place of the ambusher.

  "Tianyi indeed lives up to his name as Tianyi, this move can save lives and cure wounds, but also take people's lives, the silver awl is truly divine!"

  A dark shadow leaped out of the peach blossom forest first, followed by several other eerie black shadows that surrounded them in the center.

  "Doesn't the Despair Building know that some businesses can't be accepted?"

  Ling Jinlan's warm and gentle voice was neither light nor heavy, yet it thundered in their hearts.

  "Taking people's money and helping them spend it! What a sin!"

  A cold and ruthless voice fell, four powerful gold medal killers surrounded Ling Jinlan.

  Another ten figures, well-trained, rushed towards Ruan Qincheng's direction. The curved knives on their arms flashed a menacing cold light under the rising sun.

  Ruan Qincen glanced at these killers with a faint gaze, neither surprised nor afraid. She leaned against the roadside peach branch, plucked a heavy peach blossom, held it in her arms, and smiled brightly, her eyebrows relaxed. The absolutely beautiful flower face, under the radiant peach blossoms' foil, was elegant and unparalleled.

  A lone flower in the mortal world stands out.

  That smile, which was unaware of the dangers and hardships of the world, even a ruthless and cold-blooded killer would be stunned by it.

  Just as they hesitated for a moment, Ruan Qincheng's lips curled up with a hint of a smile, and her figure flashed by.

  Between his eyebrows, there was nothing but a calm and ruthless decisiveness!

  "Whoosh whoosh whoosh——"

  With a flick of his long sleeve, the peach blossom in his hand suddenly burst forth like fireworks in the night sky, scattering into a bloody, beautiful mess.

  The most beautiful peach blossom can also become a deadly weapon!
