"Go check it out," he instructed them, the two disciples immediately ran towards the direction where they heard the noise come from then he waved his hands, signalling her that it is safe to come out.

She quickly scurried over to where he is then he held her hand and started sprinting before the disciples' return.

​​

After a while of checking and cross-checking, they returned to their post but there were surprised to see that he was already gone.

As soon as they got away from the sect, he took her into one of the famous hotels in the street. He booked a room to stay in for an hour then he took her to the room.

"What are we doing here?" she questioned with a confused look on her face but he just smirked in response and started unfastening the belt on his waist, she widened her eyes in shock and confusion then she quickly turned her back to him.

"You...You...what are you doing?" she queried with a shaky and anxious tone in her voice in no time, he moved closer to her and held her shoulder then he turned her front to him while she still had her hands covering her face.

"What are you thinking?" he teased

From his tone, she wondered if she was mistaken so she slowly uncovered her face, she was surprised to see him wearing a white hat with a veil covering it and his sect uniform also disappeared, he was now wearing a blue tight fitted robe.

"Why did you change?"

"I can't be recognised, now that I am not in my sect uniform, we can have fun freely," he answered, she nodded her head in support of his thorough thinking then she raised her gaze to meet his.

"Then what are we going to do now?"

"There will soon be a dance performance downstairs, when we are done with watching that, then we will go to the streets," she shook her head in excitement, just imagining what a dance performance looks like, she can't wait to see it.

He held her hand and pulled her down the stairs, as soon as they got there, they found a lot of people surrounding the stage where the dancers were going to perform, he looked around for a place with a good view of the performance and he found one at last.

He pulled her to a seat and took his seat beside her.

The drummers started beating the drums in unison while the dancers got into their formation. They were dressed in the tightly fitted skirt at the waist and really large sleeves with feathered fans in their hands.

The dance started when the dancer started waving to the fans as they bent their back 180 degrees backwards in a flower-shaped formation, she cheered in excitement just seeing how artistic the scene looks.

The dancers lifted their legs, causing their skirt to flow upwards in a swift movement, she sprung up from her seat and started cheering loudly and clapping her hands, everyone turned to her, seeing how enthusiastic she is, they wondered why a female is cheering so hard when the men are not even that excited.

Bohai quickly pulled her back to the seat.

"They are all looking," he cautioned.

She quickly composed herself, not wanting to do anything that would make them stand out and then put themselves in trouble.

After an hour, the performance finally ended.

"Let's go," he held her hand again then they left the hotel together.

As soon as they got to the crowded streets, her eyes widened and her mouth agape at how crowded the street is, she felt she has never seen so many people in one place in her entire life, some were buying snacks on the street stalls, some were performing tricks to earn money, some fighting and some gossiping.

Her eyes kept scanning everyone as she walked behind him even with his hand still holding hers.

"What are you looking at?" he asked when he noticed that she is not walking with the same stride, she snapped out of her thought and turned to him.

"I...I have never seen so many things going on in one place, those snacks and that magic shows, Su Ci always told me that there are many things I haven't seen in this world and today I totally agree with her," she answered in a sentimental and sobbing tone, he knew that she must be crying tears of joy so he parted the veil a little to wipe her tears with his finger.

"You can see many of those things you haven't seen today, just tell me anything you want to do,"

"Then....can I have that?" she pointed her hands towards a direction so he turned to see what he is pointing out but it turned out that the sugar figured molded into different shapes, he let out a little chuckle seeing how childish her mind is.

He nodded and pulled her towards the store.

"Boss, can I have five of this," the boss handed it to him in no time then he gave it all to her but then she started pointing at almost all the stalls present in the streets, he wondered if she can finish everything he wants to buy but he still bought them for her.

In no time, their hands were already filled with no way to hold anything else.

"You see, there is no space to hold anything else, why don't you finish these ones before we buy anything else," she shook her head in agreement then he started handing them to her little by little as they strolled while stopping to watching some magic trick shows and other performance at which she cheered really loudly, attracting more attention to her.

He was already walking towards a restaurant when he noticed that she wasn't behind him anymore, he became very anxious when he turned his back, he quickly went back in search of her until he found her standing in front of a circus performance.

He quickly rushed to her.

"You..."

She swiftly turned to him in excitement and exhilaration, holding his hand tightly.

"I want to try that," she requested, pointing to the mam doing some stunts while tightrope walking, his eyes widened, seeing what dangerous stuff she wants to try.

"No, you can't," he quickly refused.

"Why..." her face turned downcast even though he couldn't see it, he could imagine how her face looks when she is sulking.

"That is too dangerous, what if you fall,"

"I won't fall, have you forgotten that I really powerful, I might have poor cultivation but my flame power is really strong," she boasted, raising the thumb with confidence but he sighed and held her hand.

"Huo Lan, your flame power cannot help you with this and if your glove falls off...."

"It won't, I am still going to do it no matter what you say," she folded her arms on her chest and looked away from him.

"Alright...." he reluctantly agreed, deciding to catch her before she falls if anything dangerous happens then she turned to him with a smile even though he couldn't see it, just then, the performers announced a chance for one of the spectators to try it out.

She quickly raised her hands and started shouting on top of her voice for them to pick her, everyone turned to her because of her desperate shouts but when they saw a girl with an average height and size wanting to try something so dangerous, they all started to murmur.

"Another girl wanting to try something so dangerous..." one of the performers remarked, remembering when Huo Ying did the same.

"Let her try it," Lin Bohai interceded.

The performers finally agreed, as soon as she climbed the rope his eyes became fixated on her, not willing to miss any move of hers.

They all watched her intensely, just waiting for the moment when she falls.

"How can a girl do this,"

"She will definitely fall..."

"Children of nowadays don't care for their lives,"

Bohai although unwilling to say anything personally agreed with them, he didn't believe that someone who has always been confined and has never seen anything like this will be able to successful tightrope walk especially since she doesn't have good cultivation.

He rubbed his hands nervously until she took her first step slowly with her hands spread out in the air, then she took more steps steadily to their surprise but they were still expecting her to fall until she started walking at a fast pace.

"What is she doing, that is dangerous?"

"Is she crazy, who walks that fast on a tightrope?"

"She must not want her life anymore,"

His eyes widened and his heart raced, he needed to call out her name and tell her to stop but he couldn't call out her name and she looked too happy doing something so dangerous.

"Slowly!" he shouted, hoping she can discern his voice.

"This is just too much fun," she responded, recognising his voice, he finally regretted letting her try and he already braced himself for the moment when she falls until....

She started dancing on the rope!
