Chapter 123: Not easy to fool
It seems that the last time I consumed my original power, there were still some aftereffects.
Chu Xinglan was a little confused when he saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time, and the strength in his hands loosened a little: "Master?"
Sang Yunqi came back to his senses, looked at the adorable little disciple who was so close to him, and subconsciously looked away.
"If you like it, can I do it for you often in the future?"
Chu Xinglan raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect such a pleasant surprise. He grinned and revealed his pointed little fangs.
"Will that be too much trouble, Master? How about I do it?"
How could Sang Yunqi not hear what he was thinking? She raised her hand and pinched his face, then said something along his lines with evil intentions.
"Okay, it's all up to you."
Chu Xinglan's eyes widened in disbelief, "Master, do you want to listen to what you are saying?"
Sang Yunqi looked at him innocently: "Aren't you happy even if I listen to you?"
Chu Xinglan: “…”
He felt that compared to his master, he was really too thin-skinned, especially when facing such a master, he had no way to deal with him.
He let go of Sang Yunqi and walked out angrily. He didn't want to see him. It was so annoying.
After walking a distance, the person behind him did not catch up. Chu Xinglan stopped in frustration, turned around, and his eyes were about to spit fire.
Then he saw Sang Yunqi standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.
Seeing him turn around, Sang Yunqi grabbed his wrist and rubbed his head.
"Don't be angry anymore. I'll cook for you more often in the future, okay?"
"Master will definitely not lie to you again, please forgive me this time."
Chu Xinglan snorted, but didn't shake off his hand. She raised her chin and said proudly, "Then tell me what happened before. Are you injured?"
"..."
Sang Yunqi felt very emotional. Isn't this what people often say: people from the same family stick together?
My little apprentice has learned his lesson now and it’s hard to fool him.
But since I had already said it, it would be bad to get angry right away. After thinking for a while, I said, "It's not an injury. I just lost a little bit of my original power. I can make it up through practice."
Anyway, I didn’t say how long I would practice, so it shouldn’t be considered a lie.
Chu Xinglan didn’t quite understand what the original power was. He had never come into contact with it, but when he heard that he could make up for it through cultivation, he was finally relieved.
She looked at him with some resentment: "Master, are you still hiding this from me?"
As he spoke, he thought of something and pulled out the pendant from his neck: "Is this the power of origin?"
"Well, so I took so much effort to get it for you, you have to keep it well, okay?"
This pendant was made by him when he used the power of origin to repair Chu Xinglan's soul. It was made in case he was not around, and he would feel more at ease letting Chu Xinglan carry it.
It was precisely because of this that too much of the original power was consumed at one time, which caused him to be so weak at that time.
Chu Xinglan carefully stuffed the pendant into her clothes and put it close to her body. It would be a lie to say she wasn't touched.
But he still didn't want Sang Yunqi to do something that would hurt himself in order to make himself safer.
"Master, please don't do this again. I will work hard to cultivate and protect myself, and I will also protect Master."
Sang Yunqi didn't say anything this time. He suddenly became curious about what it felt like to be protected, and he was looking forward to it.
"Well, it's all up to you."
"Let's go, we'll be late if we don't leave now."
With Sang Yunqi around, Chu Xinglan didn't have to walk by himself. He was soon brought by him to the Cangqiong Mountain Square in front.
At this moment, the square was bustling with people, and disciples wearing uniforms of various colors stood in neat rows on the square.
On the high platform in front of the square, there were a number of guys who looked familiar to Chu Xinglan. During the apprenticeship ceremony, these people came to join in the fun and watch him.
Xu Zhuo was sitting right in the middle, greeting everyone enthusiastically.
Sang Yunqi's presence was very strong. As soon as he appeared, everyone's eyes turned in his direction and they all saluted to Sang Yunqi.
Chu Xinglan stood behind him and also took advantage of the gift.
Sang Yunqi looked straight ahead and landed on the empty seat next to Xu Zhuo.
For such a grand occasion, it is still up to the head of the sect, Xu Zhuo, to preside over the overall situation. Sang Yunqi had no intention of stealing the show. If it weren't for Chu Xinglan, he might not have come at all.
Chu Xinglan stood behind Sang Yunqi. He glanced around the platform and found that there were many disciples like him standing behind their elders.
They should all be the proud disciples of these sects, and they are brought here to broaden their horizons and make themselves familiar to other sects.
Half of them are in the Jindan stage and half are in the foundation-building stage, and they should all be candidates to participate in this exchange competition.
What surprised Chu Xinglan was that, apart from those relatively famous sects and families, other small sects also had people who had reached the great perfection of the golden elixir and the perfection of the foundation building.
Obviously, everyone has tried their best for this exchange competition, and a lot of resources have been spent.
Chu Xinglan looked at a few of them curiously.
A man wearing a monk's robe and with a shaved head, with a fair face that was a little chubby and rosy lips, smiled at Chu Xinglan when he saw him. The dimples on his cheeks looked very cute. If he was holding a koi, he would be just like the lucky doll in the New Year pictures.
Next to him was a thin young man with a somewhat cold face and an indifferent and otherworldly temperament. He was holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and gently turning them.
Noticing Chu Xinglan's gaze, he just nodded calmly as a greeting.
Chu Xinglan suddenly realized that this young man should be the Buddhist disciple of Hanshan Temple. His cultivation had reached the Golden Core Great Perfection, and it seemed that he should be of a similar status to Chen Xiu.
The lucky doll next to him has reached the great perfection of foundation building. He doesn't look disillusioned with the world at all, but is rather lively.
After being glared at by his senior brother, he quickly assumed the same posture as his senior brother, slightly drooping his eyelids, and quickly fiddling with the Buddhist beads in his hand.
Chu Xinglan chuckled in his heart, thinking that this Nian kid was quite interesting. He would like to get to know him when he entered the secret realm later.
Hanshan Temple is located on the right side of Xu Zhuo, and Yuehua Palace is on the left side.
The reputation of Yuehua Palace is also very loud in the world of cultivation. Although their sect only recruits female disciples, their strength is not at all weak. Chu Xinglan took a quick look and found that each of them was beautiful.
Behind the elder of Yuehua Palace stood a graceful woman wearing a veil.
Her eyes were as bright as water waves, her gaze was full of charm, and her cultivation was at the Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir. Chu Xinglan searched in his mind and thought, should she be a saint?
This time, due to the differences between men and women, Chu Xinglan did not look at it for long. He looked away after a quick glance, and did not notice that the saint's eyes fell on him with interest.
