Episode 20

  Back at the inn, Blue Rabbit asked, "Why are you back so early?" Xiao Li glanced at Rainbow Cat who was silent and whispered to Blue Rabbit, "Something unexpected came up."

  Lan Tu looked at Hong Mao again, then looked at everyone else, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she didn't ask any more questions.

  Rainbow cat teased the baby and turned to ask Blue Rabbit, "Blue Rabbit, how's your adjustment going?" Blue Rabbit smiled and said, "It's all good now, it won't affect tomorrow's match." Upon hearing this, Rainbow cat showed a faint smile on her face, no matter what the future holds, as long as you're by my side, that's enough.

  The atmosphere in the room began to liven up, and Shuiling said: "Tomorrow you'll be competing, so today let me personally cook for you and supplement your bodies." Chantian, Xiaoli, and Dingdang's faces changed upon hearing this. Xiaoli dryly smiled and said: "Master, it's really not necessary to trouble you, the food at the inn is already quite good." Shuiling seemed to not notice everyone's unusual expressions and continued: "No way, look at how thin you've all become these past few days. I'll make a pot of chicken soup for you, and add some scallions..." Shuiling muttered to herself as she walked out. Dingdang immediately pounced on Gujiujin, grabbing his sleeve and saying: "Father, quickly save us!" Xiaoli also chimed in: "Yes, Master, every time we eat Master's cooking, it feels like we'll lose ten years of our lives!" Chantian on the side also looked at Gujiujin with a agreeing gaze.

  Gu Jiujiu was in a difficult situation now. He was notoriously henpecked and didn't have the guts to stop Shuilinglei.

  At this time, Blue Rabbit said: "Why don't I go and help the mistress?" Everyone seemed to have grasped a lifesaving straw, nodding repeatedly at Blue Rabbit. Blue Rabbit and Rainbow Cat exchanged a smile and walked out. In another room of the inn, Arrow Heart said: "In less than a month's time, how could that kid Rainbow Cat make such great progress?" Jian Yi lowered his head, thinking about something.

  Jian Ling had already heard from Jian Xin about the Phoenix Platform, and he was also a little skeptical. Indeed, martial arts emphasize gradual progress, and in such a short period of time, his martial arts skills have improved so much, did he take something to enhance his abilities?

  They never expected that the fake they thought was actually the one they admired, the leader of the Seven Heroes - Hong Mao.

  In the kitchen, the cooks looked at Shuilingling with strange expressions as she bustled about. On the corner of the table were several plates holding extremely strange "unidentified objects". One of them asked fearlessly: "Auntie, what is this..." Before he could finish speaking, Shuilingling's sharp gaze made him jump: "Am I so old that you call me auntie? Call me sister!" The cooks were intimidated by Shuilingling's aura and trembled slightly: "Yes yes, s...not, sister, you take your time, we'll leave first." After they fled in disarray, Blue Rabbit said to Shuilingling: "Master's wife, let me help you!"

  "Great! You're in charge of cooking today!" Blue Rabbit smiled and made a hand gesture behind Water Spirit's back. Then, Dingdang quietly snuck into the kitchen and took out several dishes of "spoils". Just as she was about to go upstairs, someone blocked her way: "Dingdang Shimei..." Dingdang looked up to see Xiong Jianqiang looking at her pitifully: "Dingdang, you're not mad at me anymore, are you?" Looking at Xiong Jianqiang, a clever idea flashed in Dingdang's mind. This is a gift from the heavens, don't blame me... She said to Xiong Jianqiang with an expressionless face: "Since it's already over, I don't want to bring up old matters again. Here, these dishes are for you."

  Xiong Jianqiang's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Dingdang, did you do this on purpose for me?" Dingdang said somewhat impatiently: "Who cares who did it, just one sentence, do you want it or not?" Xiong Jianqiang snatched the dish and said: "Want, of course I want." He looked like he was afraid that Dingdang would regret it.

  As she watched Xiong Jianqiang's energetic and lively back, her mood also improved. She was worried about how to deal with these dishes without being discovered. The task is completed, and she hummed a little tune as she returned to her room. In the evening, everyone gathered together for dinner, when suddenly, the door was opened, and outside stood a woman with a delicate face. As soon as the woman saw Lan Tu, tears welled up in her eyes: "Master!"

  He closed the door and smiled, saying: "Zhaoyi, you're here." Zhaoyi excitedly asked: "Palace Master, your memories have returned!" Langtu nodded. For a moment, Zhaoyi was speechless, but gradually calmed down after a while. Langtu introduced to Zhaoyi one by one: "These are Han Tian, Dingdang Shifu and his wife."

  Zhaor hugged her fist and said, "Zhaor has seen everyone." Zhaor handed a bundle of cloth to Blue Rabbit and said, "Palace Master, this is the clothes and needles you wanted." Blue Rabbit took the bundle and said, "Thank you, Zhaor." At this time, Zhaor spoke up and said, "Palace Master, I want to stay by your side."

  Blue Rabbit shook his head and said, "Don't bother, you go back early, I'll be back in a while." Zhao Er saw that she didn't argue anymore, after all, she had always obeyed Blue Rabbit's orders without fail. In her heart, Blue Rabbit was worth giving everything for. So Zhao Er bid farewell to everyone and left the inn.

  After a day of hustle and bustle, everyone had retired early and soon fell asleep. Rainbow Cat was worried in his heart, although his skills had recovered somewhat, but he still didn't have the confidence to win the competition, thinking so, sleepless, got up and came outside, lightly jumped onto the rooftop.

  Gazing at the bright moon, Rainbow Cat involuntarily took out a flute and began to play softly. Blue Rabbit hadn't fallen asleep either, heard the sound of the flute, came to the courtyard, saw Rainbow Cat on the rooftop, leaped onto the rooftop as well, sat down gently beside Rainbow Cat, closed her eyes, and listened quietly.

  After a long time, the rustling sound stopped, and Blue Rabbit slowly opened her eyes, asking: "Can't sleep?" Rainbow Cat said: "Yes." Blue Rabbit seemed to have seen through his concerns, saying: "No confidence?" Rainbow Cat didn't speak, but Blue Rabbit smiled and said: "Rarely, even the master of Long Hong Sword has times of worry." Rainbow Cat turned her head, looking into her eyes, saying: "When did I not worry? Only for people and things that matter to me, I will worry, right?" Blue Rabbit's smile slightly paused, looking into Rainbow Cat's eyes, with a few more encouraging and comforting words, softly said: "I believe in you." Rainbow Cat was taken aback, then smiled faintly, Ah, yes, there's still you.

  Under the moonlight, two figures merged into the night...
