Mr. Ji’s Taoist partner
Aze originally thought that the female cultivator in front of him just knew Mr. Ji, but he didn't expect that they had such a close relationship. Although he was almost a prisoner and marginal figure in Jiufeng Mountain, he still knew some common sense about this kind of thing.
Taoist companions are extremely close people in the practice, not necessarily limited to men and women. Some are both teachers and friends. Of course, there are also many male and female Taoist companions who develop feelings for each other and become closer, and the probability is not low.
In addition, the other party told him that he was alone in Jiufeng Mountain, which made Aze's trust in the woman in front of him suddenly increase to a considerable level.
"If you have nowhere to go, come with me and tell me how you have been through all these years."
"I, can I..."
Lian Ping'er smiled and nodded.
"Just treat me as your master's wife."
Aze's face lit up with joy, but then he looked a little disappointed. Lian Ping'er saw everything about his expression. She understood in her heart that her guess was correct. He admired Ji Yuan and wanted to become his disciple but was not allowed to join. Then he had no choice but to join Jiufeng Mountain. However, there must be some hidden story behind this person.
Seeing Aze's reaction, Lian Ping'er immediately added another sentence.
"It is indeed difficult to become his disciple."
Lian Ping'er left first, and Aze hurriedly followed after he came to his senses. Perhaps it was a psychological effect, Aze felt the same gentle care from the woman in front of him as Mr. Ji, the kind of care from an elder that he had not felt for a long time.
Sometimes people's feelings are very strange. At the beginning, Aze was quite wary of outsiders, but when Lian Ping'er accurately guessed some key information, some information that Aze was sure only Mr. Ji knew, trust and closeness were established very quickly.
Aze talked as he walked, and under the guidance of Lian Ping'er's words, he told all his experiences in Jiufeng Mountain over the years. He also "recalled" and recounted his meeting with Ji Yuan, his experiences in Jiufen Cave Heaven, and his own life experience.
Although Aze did not call this "Ning Fairy" "Master's Wife" directly, he treated her respectfully with the etiquette of a disciple. He had been in Jiufeng Mountain for nearly twenty years and had never shown such sincere courtesy to the immortal masters in Jiufeng Mountain.
To show his affection, Aze affectionately called Fairy Ning Xin "Aunt Ning", and the latter did not show any dissatisfaction but accepted it with pleasure.
When they arrived at the inn, Lian Ping'er appeared easy-going on the surface, but there were already waves of turmoil in her heart.
It turned out that the man in front of him was a person with deep demonic roots, but he cultivated the foundation of immortality under such circumstances. This was not the case of an ordinary immortal cultivator whose Tao heart was unstable and thus taken advantage of by the demons, but rather that he cultivated the foundation of immortality while already having the demon in his heart.
Because Aze has no psychological guard against Lian Ping'er now, Lian Ping'er can get more information through observing the qi and calculating, and even take Aze's pulse and use his magic power to explore Aze's practice status.
It can be said that when the devil was born in Aze's heart, Ji Yuan was definitely the first to feel it, but he did not choose some conventional methods that would cause irreversible harm to the young man at the time. Instead, he pierced the immortal vein on the growing devil root.
Although due to the "superb handling methods" of the idiots in Jiufeng Mountain, Aze's evil heart seems to have been growing stronger in the past twenty years, while his immortal vein has grown limitedly, but Aze's spiritual platform is surprisingly clear. That strand of immortal vein has taken deep root, like a touch of green in the ice and snow black soil, with small seedlings but deep roots.
This unprecedented and incredible situation made Lian Ping'er come up with a new word based on his thoughts.
'The devil's heart planted the Tao... The devil's heart planted the Tao... Ji Yuan was able to plant the foundation of Tao in the heart of a person who was destined to become a devil...'
Lian Ping'er's cultivation level cannot be considered earth-shattering, but her understanding of cultivation is definitely unique. After hearing all of Aze's stories, she reacted immediately, or was more willing to believe that what happened to Aze was definitely not something that could be achieved by the immortal cultivators who imprisoned Aze in Jiufeng Mountain simply giving him some cultivation methods.
The reason why Aze is the Aze he is today is because of the time when Ji Yuan accompanied him. It was Ji Yuan's subtle influence. There was an agreement at first and love came after. Even the girl named Jin Xiu was a love lock and an insurance set by Ji Yuan.
"What a powerful method! Immortals are not only using immortal methods, but also using the principles of worldly affairs, human emotions, the aspirations of youth, and the kindness in their hearts as methods... No, this is also an immortal method, an immortal method based on fate..."
Lian Ping'er suddenly felt a little creepy. Was Ji Yuan really just an immortal cultivator born in this era? Could the current world of immortal cultivation really produce a true immortal like Ji Yuan
"Aunt Ning, Aunt Ning..."
When Aze followed Aunt Ning to the inn, he found that she was in a daze and couldn't help but call out to her twice.
"Ah? Oh, we're here..."
Lian Ping'er came back to her senses and immediately showed a heartbroken expression on her face. She even reached out and touched Aze's cheek. This kind of skin contact made Aze a little uncomfortable, but he still didn't hide.
"Poor child, Ji Yuan is indeed a bit cruel. With his level of Taoism, he couldn't have predicted that Jiufeng Mountain would not treat you well..."
"This can't be blamed on Mr. Ji, it's Aze's own fault!"
"Well, let's go into the inn. Some of the dishes in this inn are famous in various fairy ports, and some of them are even famous here. This is where they originated. I'll take you to taste them."
Aze smiled.
"Thank you, Aunt Ning."
"Haha, why are you being so polite to me? Just think of it as Mr. Ji inviting you."
The building in front of you is more like a treasure pavilion than an inn. It looks simple from the outside, but once you step inside, the space changes immediately. The interior is decorated luxuriously and warmly. There are some little elves with butterfly wings flying around holding signs.
As soon as Aze and Lian Ping'er came in, several little monsters flew over.
Aze could see clearly that these little monsters had beautiful wings like butterflies, but their bodies were like a child shrunken many times. They wore red, green and yellow jackets and looked chubby and festive.
"Welcome, two immortals. Would you like to stay here or eat? We have upper rooms and private rooms. If you need, there is also a forbidden secret room."
Lian Ping'er answered with a smile.
"Please, fellow Taoists, arrange a private room for us to eat. Bring us all the ten delicacies here, as well as Sanhua wine and Biling fruit."
"Can we have the Lingshan elegant seats on the third floor of Xuan?"
"Okay, you guys arrange it."
The words on the sign in the hand of a little elf immediately changed, and then he called out to the counter in a soft but loud voice.
"There are guests at the Lingshan Elegant Seat on the third floor—"
"Alright! Please follow me, two immortals. There are many rooms here, so don't get lost!"
After the little goblin finished speaking, he flew towards a corridor first. Aze was still staring at him blankly, and Lian Ping'er patted him.
"Let's go. The shopkeeper here is also an immortal. The waiters are either spirits or immortal cultivators. Even the chef knows immortal magic. The dishes he cooks are not only full of spiritual charm, but also very delicious!"
…
At about the same time, Dahui and Xiaohui had already returned to Yuhuai Bao Pavilion.
As an important treasure pavilion that is about to be opened, Wei Wuwei attaches great importance to this place. There are many independent cultivators in the Qianjiao Island area. To put it in a good way, it is a place where a hundred flowers bloom, and to put it in an unpleasant way, it is a place where good and bad people mix together. However, he attaches more importance to this kind of place than the fairy ports of some important immortal gates. He even came here in person to arrange related matters in his busy schedule, and by the way, he had a meeting with a person in charge of Lingbaoxuan in a subtle way.
At this time, Wei Wuwei came out of Lingbaoxuan and saw Dahui and Xiaohui coming over. He quickly and solemnly saluted them.
"Master Gray, is this harbor city in the sea interesting?"
"Master Wei!"
After the two returned the gift, Xiao Hui spoke directly.
"It's quite interesting and really an eye-opener, but Da Hui and I also saw two weirdos, one of whom looked peculiar."
"oh?"
Wei Wuwei looked at Dahui. He knew that Dahui was the calmer of the two gray Taoists. The latter also spoke.
"Yes, there is one who seems to be a disciple of Jiufeng Mountain, but she has some affinity with us, and the woman is more evil..."
As Dahui said this, Wei Wuwei frowned repeatedly.
"That woman spent three thousand taels of gold to buy it, and now she wants to give it to you?"
"Yes, Dahui thinks there is something wrong with that woman, but he can't put his finger on it."
Wei Wuwei nodded.
"You two are right. A woman who spent a fortune to buy all the deep-sea pearls must love this treasure very much. She can grab the pearls and give them to others, and she also wants to give them to you. Even if she is a fairy, she will love this kind of thing that she just got and will not let it go. It is impossible for her to give it to others."
"Oh, by the way, since you two are here, I will naturally entertain you well. Otherwise, I will be embarrassed to go to Yunshan Temple next time. Let's go to Xianyun Tower and try the ten delicacies!"
"Great!" "Thank you for letting Patriarch Wei spend so much money!"
Wei Wuwei's suggestion certainly made Dahui and Xiaohui very excited. It was good to go out and see the world, especially with the head of the Wei family.
"It's okay, it's rare to come here. I'm also very curious about the taste of the dishes!"
Wei Wuwei took Dahui, Xiaohui, and two other Wei family members to the Xianyun Tower, which was the inn where Aze and Lian Ping'er were.
After ordering the dishes in an elegant room, Wei Wuwei led a few people into the room but went out again and came to the counter of Xianyun Tower.
The shopkeeper was calculating the accounts with a pen. When he saw Wei Wuwei coming, he looked up at him.
"If you want more dishes, just call us. You don't need to come out yourself."
Wei Wuwei saluted with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist, I want to inquire whether there are two cultivators, a man and a woman, here."
"I have many male and female monks here, and everyone here is a guest. Fellow Daoist, you don't want me to speak out directly when someone asks about you, right?"
The shopkeeper said this and lowered his head to count the bill.
"That's natural."
Wei Wuwei nodded repeatedly.
"Doing business does require integrity. I won't break the rules. I will only look for people without disturbing them, and I won't do anything in the store."
The shopkeeper frowned, looked up at Wei Wuwei again, and suddenly a look of realization appeared on his face.
"It turns out to be Patriarch Wei!"
