Chapter 193: Chapter 101: I Chose You

The wind lifted the silver hair at the girl’s temples, her expression distant and tranquil.

Her robe sleeves, under the moonlight, took on a divine and indescribable isolation that suddenly made Li Guanyi understand the description in the poem ’I wish to ride the wind and return.’

Then Li Guanyi saw the girl lower her head, looking at the wall’s upper edge to its lower height.

She pursed her lips.

Squatting down, she stretched out her hand to measure the height, her face slightly pale.

Then she looked up at the youth on the other side.

Her face still showed no expression.

Li Guanyi smiled, tossed the scroll he was holding, and the white paper scattered under the moonlight like butterflies. He then quickly walked to the corner, just as before, lifted his hands to support her, and the girl blinked, first squatting down.

Then, she sat in the corner.

She swung her legs, swaying her body in tune.

Without hesitation or doubt.

She jumped down.

The silver hair elongated under the moonlight.

Li Guanyi felt his palms touch the girl’s knees and shins through the thin fabric, then a gust of wind as if pushed against him, Li Guanyi’s Golden Muscle and Jade Bone might react and bounce Shaking Light, but he fell backward, skillfully diffusing the force.

The youth lay on the ground.

The silver-haired girl knelt on his chest, her hair flying and then falling, the moonlight pure.

Her hair strands brushed past his temples, ticklish.

In the distance, the sound of birds flapping their wings, the wind passing through the trees, the rubbing of the leaves, far and slowly connecting with the edge of the sky, disappeared, and outside came the sound of the night watchman striking a wooden clapper, pulling at his throat:

"The weather is dry."

"Be careful—"

"of candles."

The voice gradually faded away.

Instead, it felt more silent.

Shaking Light’s expression calm.

Then she stood up, bent down to dust off her clothes, thought for a moment, and reached out her hand.

The silver-haired girl under the moonlight looked tranquil, as if the moonlight itself was reaching out to her. Li Guanyi smiled and extended his hand, imagining that if he were now like General Xue, gallant and suave, he should forcefully pull the girl into his embrace.

That guy would certainly do that.

He just exerted force, seamlessly standing up while Shaking Light turned behind him, patting off the dust on his back.

Li Guanyi went out and indeed saw the girl’s enormous bundle outside the courtyard.

Li Guanyi couldn’t imagine how Shaking Light had carried this large bundle on her journey, just thinking about it made him want to laugh, saying, "Why did you suddenly come?"

Shaking Light said quietly, "I thought, you needed help."

Li Guanyi suddenly thought of the Formation Maps that trapped him, then informed Shaking Light, who perused some classics, surprised, stretching out her hand, thus entwining the moonlight around her fingertips, the moonlight and starlight flowed and changed in the air, deducing the variations of the formation.

Shaking Light’s voice tranquil, said:

"This way, the changes in the formation are very clear."

Li Guanyi saw the variations of the Formation Map that he hadn’t thought of before, presented in a three-dimensional way in Shaking Light’s hands, suddenly much clearer than the earlier deductions, and immediately overjoyed, picked up the scattered scrolls from the ground, and together with Shaking Light deduced these Formation Maps.

The progress was much faster than before, if previously Li Guanyi couldn’t grasp the variations even if he stayed up all night, now it seemed possible with all his might. Under the light, the girl’s voice tranquil without causing ripples.

Every time she spoke, Li Guanyi would have new ideas.

Those complex variations were like a heavenly book to Li Guanyi.

The girl could perceive the changes at a glance, and after a slight contemplation for a few breaths, she could discern the profoundness within, also understanding parts of the "Imperial Pole Worldly Scripture," the East Continent Star Observation of the Three Sects of the World, continuously extending for such a long era, was not undeservedly famous.

And that Shaking Light at such a young age, receiving the title of [Shaking Light].

Was certainly not amongst the common.

They were not skilled in outright combat of Martial Artists, but in other aspects, they far excelled.

Unknowingly, time passed, and the starry sky had gradually darkened, first the sound of bird chirping suddenly lit up, and then a streak of white gradually appeared on the horizon, Shaking Light and Li Guanyi dismantled the last Formation Map.

Li Guanyi stretched, feeling invigorated.

The thing that had been pressing on his heart, finally set aside, flipping through the Formation Maps, he remembered yesterday’s event, saying, "Yesterday, Breaking Army came to find me."

The silver-haired Shaking Light, her expression tranquil, tilted her head: "Hmm?"

Then after thinking for a moment, she responded:

"Hmm."

Li Guanyi laughed: "He came looking for me, aren’t you as a descendant of Shaking Light, concerned?"

Shaking Light kneeled in front, her palm gently resting on her knee, her voice tranquil, replied:

"Each generation’s Breaking Army is skilled in military strategy, even if they aren’t under the banner of the White Tiger Sect, they would still provide strategic advice. Eight hundred years ago, that Overlord had both Shaking Light and Breaking Army, but he didn’t heed the strategic advice of Breaking Army, allowing the Red Emperor to leave three times."

"When that Overlord met his defeat, Breaking Army still found a way to break the situation, unwilling to give up, even though he was gravely ill, he still sailed through the Red Emperor’s encirclement to find the Overlord, trying to forge him a final path of life."

"The Overlord just apologized and let Breaking Army leave, choosing another path on his own."

"In the records, the initial Breaking Army, in his old age, cursed vehemently but still with tears streaming, remembered the late Overlord, and thereafter, just like our lineage has our rules, the Breaking Army descendants also need to confirm the other party’s capability before choosing whether or not to assist."
