Outside the willow tree hole, spring is in full bloom.
A gentle breeze caressed the tender green willow leaves, which shimmered with a crystalline luster in the sunlight.
Ling Shuo crossed her arms and leaned against a sturdy ancient willow tree, her red robe swaying gently in the wind, her silver hair half-tied and half-loose.
His eyes were fixed on the willow tree not far ahead, its trunk surrounded by runes!
A blue butterfly fluttered about, sometimes alighting on a willow leaf, sometimes gracefully circling the tree.
"There's absolutely no sound!"
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to meddle in other people's business. I'd better go raise my fish!"
"Enjoy every day as it comes!"
He was about to get up, ready to use his skills to leave!
Suddenly, the sky and earth changed color, and a fierce wind arose.
The wind came rushing in like a thousand horses galloping!
In the blink of an eye, willow catkins filled the air!
Ling Shuo felt a tremendous force strike him, and his body involuntarily staggered back several meters, his back slamming heavily against another willow tree.
The blue butterfly was also swept away by the gale and disappeared into the vast sky in an instant.
Ling Shuo quickly steadied himself, his long hair disheveled and his clothes fluttering in the wind. He narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"You audacious fiend, show yourself now!"
Before he could finish speaking, a towering figure appeared before him, radiating a powerful aura.
Ling Shuo looked closely!
The newcomer wore a black Taoist robe embroidered with the sun, moon and stars, held a whisk, wore a golden lotus crown, had a ruddy complexion, and a flowing black beard.
Ling Shuo secretly thought to himself that something was wrong:
Oh no, could this outfit belong to the legendary Nine Yang Immortal?
Thinking this, Ling Shuo hurriedly stepped forward, cupped his hands in a fist salute, and said:
"My name is Ling Shuo, and I pay my respects to the venerable one! May you be blessed with boundless happiness!"
Master Jiuyang stared directly at Ling Shuo and questioned him:
What are you doing here?
Ling Shuo smiled slightly, neither humble nor arrogant:
"Waiting for someone!"
Seeing the puzzled look on Jiuyang Zhenren's face, Ling Shuo had no choice but to recount his encounter with Qingyan and Xu Wan that day in detail, without omitting a single word.
After a while.
Master Jiuyang nodded slightly, his eyes full of smiles.
"Hmm, Ling Shuo, would you be willing to cultivate under my tutelage? I observe that you possess exceptional talent; if you dedicate yourself to cultivation, you will surely achieve great things."
Ling Shuo was startled by what he heard, but his expression remained calm.
He quickly bowed and politely declined.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master. I am quite comfortable being a rogue cultivator here."
"Living freely in the mountains and fields, unrestrained and unfettered, encountering unexpected opportunities, finding joy in simple pleasures."
"The path of cultivation is not necessarily confined to any particular sect; wherever one finds enlightenment, there is a place for cultivation."
He looked up and stared directly at the person, his eyes gleaming with confidence.
"Moreover, Ling Shuo is naturally undisciplined and may find it difficult to adapt to the rules of the Taoist sect, thus failing to live up to the Master's good intentions."
Upon hearing this, Master Jiuyang was not angry at all; instead, he laughed heartily and lightly waved his whisk.
"Hahaha... Interesting, truly interesting!"
"If you have any questions in the future, you may come to the Nine Yang Divine Sect to find me."
Inside the willow tree cave, Xu Wan and Qing Yan walked side by side.
Above you are the gnarled roots of ancient trees, and inside the cave is a faint fragrance of grass and trees.
Tick tock!
Water droplets occasionally dripped from the cave wall, making a crisp sound.
Suddenly, Xu Wan's ears twitched slightly!
Master?
Why did he come looking for me?
what should I do?
If he knew Xuanqing was like this...
It's because I gave him the Emperor's heart's blood to drink...
The consequences would be disastrous!
The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Hey, that’s not right!
Master was laughing heartily just now!
Xu Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking secretly:
It seems that Senior Brother Baiyuan didn't tell Master that I gave Xuanqing the Emperor's heart's blood to drink.
She shook her head as soon as the thought crossed her mind.
Master is always very perceptive; if he really wants to investigate, he will find out sooner or later.
Xu Wan involuntarily stopped in her tracks. Seeing this, Qingyan turned around and asked with concern:
"What's wrong, Sister Wan? Are you feeling unwell?"
She reached out to touch Xu Wan's forehead, but Xu Wan gently avoided her touch.
"No, I sensed my master's arrival!"
Xu Wan forced a smile!
My heart felt like it was being drawn up with fifteen buckets of water!
Feeling extremely anxious!
Qingyan was very excited upon hearing this:
"Your master? Then I should go and meet him!"
"His master, Xuanqing, must also be a formidable figure."
Xu Wan was shocked and quickly reached out to grab Qingyan's sleeve, her voice trembling:
"You mustn't go! My master, Master Jiuyang, is a grand master of Taoism, with immense magical power!!"
"He must know about how you harmed his disciple Xuanqing, and he's come to settle accounts with you!"
"You'd better not come out with me. Your life is more important!"
Qingyan raised an eyebrow, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes:
"Then I'll see just how powerful Xuanqing's master is!"
Xu Wan quickly reached out and covered Qingyan's mouth:
Shh! Keep your voice down!
"My master has excellent hearing; if he hears this, he'll come in and take your life!"
"I won't be able to save your life then!"
"I'm afraid Xuanqing will cry to me every day!"
Qingyan forcefully pried Xu Wan's hands away, her face full of displeasure:
"Why should he cry to you? He can only cry to me and beg for forgiveness!"
Xu Wan flicked Qingyan's forehead helplessly:
"You're so love-struck, you're so stupid! If my master comes to take your life, and you're gone, won't Xuanqing cry to me every day?"
"What if he loves you without realizing it? Wouldn't I have to face a crying Xuanqing every day?"
Qingyan gripped Xu Wan's wrist tightly, her eyes filled with unwavering determination:
"Then I'll still go with you!"
"If your master wants to kill me, you should just kneel down and beg him!"
"Xuanqing is mine, and I will not hide away out of fear."
Xu Wan sighed helplessly, tears welling up in her eyes.
This woman is as clingy as bubblegum; you can't shake her off.
No, she's like a persistent leech!
Xuanqing, come and control your wife!
If you don't come soon, I'm going to get dragged down with her!
Meanwhile, outside the cave.
Master Jiuyang was standing in front of that ancient willow tree.
He gently placed his fingertips on the tree trunk, feeling the fluctuations of spiritual energy contained within, and was about to enter the hidden hole in the tree.
Suddenly, the willow tree was surrounded by a green light, and countless branches swayed. In an instant, a huge hole appeared on the trunk, which was as thick as a water bucket.
Ling Shuo, who was leaning against a willow tree, also stood up straight, utterly shocked.
Two figures, one in green and one in white, slowly emerged from the cave.
Ling Shuo rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
Xu Wan and Qing Yan were actually holding hands when they came out!
Upon seeing her master, the Nine Yang Immortal, Xu Wan immediately bowed respectfully and smiled sweetly.
"Master, you've arrived!"
Master Jiuyang raised his hand and picked up the willow leaf from Xu Wan's hair, his gaze gentle.
Next breath...
He gripped the willow leaf in his hand, his gaze fixed on Qingyan.
His gaze instantly turned sharp as a knife:
"Why don't you kneel before this humble Taoist priest!"
Qingyan rolled her eyes, showing no fear:
"Why should I kneel? I'm not your disciple! What right do you have to make me kneel?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Wan was so shocked that she couldn't speak!
Master Jiuyang was utterly speechless!
Ling Shuo gasped in shock!
I secretly said:
Monsters are monsters, they don't know any manners at all, they really have a death wish, they're in a hurry to die!
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Ling Shuo quickly stepped forward and respectfully bowed to Master Jiuyang, saying:
"Since my beloved disciple is unharmed, then Ling Shuo will take his leave!"
After saying that, he quickly transformed into a silver streak of light and disappeared from everyone's sight, afraid of being drawn into the impending conflict.
In the willow grove, the breeze still blew, but undercurrents were already stirring.
Xu Wan stood in the middle, with her dignified and unapproachable master on one side and the stubborn and unyielding Qingyan on the other, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
She knew that this meeting would likely cause a stir...
