Hearing Jian Jian's righteous rhetoric, Qi Jibai was speechless. After a long while, Qi Jibai sighed, "Accepting an apprentice like you is really my fault from my previous life."
"Why did Master say that?" Jian Yi asked, "Are you afraid that I won't be able to accomplish what I promised you?"
"I'm just afraid that you will die before you keep your promise!" Qi Jibai threw his long sleeves and said angrily.
Jian Yi smiled, but did not continue chatting with him, but moved to the window and glanced out. From his angle, he could see a path down the mountain. At this moment, Wenxuan was going down the mountain and passed this path.
Easy to look at it so intently.
Along the way, Wenxuan was so alone, ignoring the gazes of others. He doesn't come into contact with anyone, and other people don't come into contact with him specifically, as if they were in two worlds. Simple thought, senior brother must be lonely now that he is so mixed in the sect. But thinking of Wenxuan's loneliness today, while Jian Jian felt uncomfortable for him, deep down in his heart, he was unavoidably secretly happy.
When Wenxuan was about to reach the end of the road, someone suddenly appeared and stopped him.
The one who suddenly appeared was Luo Qingquan who had just come out of Wenxuan. To say that Luo Qingquan is also boring, stop Wenxuan, in fact, there is nothing to do, he has to stand there and say a few cruel words before leaving, as if he can be satisfied.
Luo Qingquan's naive behavior made Wenxuan a little more happy, and the expression on his face relaxed a lot.
Jian Jian looked up, and his fingertips couldn't help but clasped the window lattice.
"Don't pull the paint off." Qi Jibai tapped his fingertips and reminded.
Fortunately, Luo Qingquan soon parted ways with Wenxuan, and Jian Jian also loosened his fingertips, and the window lattice finally kept the paint on it. It's just that the gaze he looked at Luo Qingquan was gloomy and full of hostility.
Qi Jibai mourned for a moment in his heart for the nephew Luo who had come in trouble, and he did not intend to hinder Jian Yi from continuing to express his perverted possessiveness here.
He got up to say goodbye and walked to his Dan room.
The simple face was gloomy for a moment, and then gradually eased. Although he was upset, he did not intend to take any measures. In fact, Jian Jian's hostility to Luo Qingquan did not last long. Because he knew it was only temporary.
A few days later passed. Jian Jian has been desperately deducing the exercises he needs, and finally achieved initial results. But if he wanted to show his face at Wenxuan, he had to take care of his complexion first.
In the past few days, Wenxuan has completely lived in the shallows, and he has never left the door even once. Fortunately, Luo Qingquan came to the door to provoke him almost every day, which finally relieved his boredom. But on this day, Wenxuan guessed that it was time for Luo Qingquan to find fault again. On a whim, he stood at the door and looked at it.
Luo Qingquan really came running again, but stopped at the foot of the mountain and was stopped by someone to speak.
Wen Xuan fixed his eyes and saw that the person who was talking to Luo Qingquan was not Zhang Xiaoqing? Thinking of Zhang Xiaoqing's attitude of running away when he saw him some time ago, Wen Xuan's heart sank suddenly.
Luo Qingquan had always had a great impression of Zhang Xiaoqing, but being stopped like this at this time made the whole person a little more excited and nervous. Afterwards, I don't know what Zhang Xiaoqing said to him, but Luo Qingquan's face was obviously a little more confused.
He glanced in the direction of Wenxuan's cave in such a stunned manner, and when he saw Wenxuan, his face became a little more embarrassed, and he quickly took his eyes back.
What Zhang Xiaoqing said again, Wenxuan couldn't hear it clearly, and only guessed what the warning was.
After Zhang Xiaoqing left, Luo Qingquan raised his head again, and his gaze at Wenxuan became more complicated. He raised his foot and took two steps towards Wenxuan, raised his hand and seemed to hesitate, but shook his head again, and finally turned around and went back along the same path.
Luo Qingquan's entanglement with Wenxuan was all because of an uncontrollable self-esteem in his heart.
However, a comparison shows that the affection he has always held for Zhang Xiaoqing is far more important than that self-esteem.
After that, Luo Qingquan never came to Wenxuan again, and he was like a stranger to other disciples in the sect.
Wenxuan sat in the cave and laughed at himself. There was a pile of letterheads on the table, all of which were simple letters from the past few days. Wen Xuan sometimes felt that Jian Yi was too clingy, but now, these letterheads have become his only solace.
Until the next morning, even the simple letterhead did not come.
Wenxuan waited until after lunch, and looked out and looked again, feeling strange in his heart, but saw a figure jumping from the door excitedly, straight to his hand, and it was Jian Yi who finally came out from Qi Jibai.
"Senior brother!" Jian Yi has taken advantage of these few days to keep himself in good spirits, and when he sees Wenxuan, he starts to stick, "I haven't seen you for a long time, do you miss me?"
Wen Xuan asked him with a smile, "How many days?"
Jian Jian counted with his fingers and laughed dryly, "It seems... five days."
Five days, it turns out that only five days have passed. It was really only a short time, but Wenxuan felt as if a long time had passed. He was very happy to see Yi Jian again at this time.
He smiled and rubbed his simple head, and replied seriously, "I miss you very much."
Jian Yi was just happy when he saw Wen Xuan sighing again, and quickly asked him what happened.
Wen Xuan told the story of Luo Qingquan again. Even though it was something that Jian Jian had already expected, at this time, Wen Xuan was still very serious.
"Senior brother," he asked Wenxuan after listening, "do you want to know why?"
Wen Xuan thought for a while and nodded.
"Zhang Xiaoqing... That Senior Sister Zhang," Jian Jian told him, "I actually had a good impression of you before."
Wen Xuan was slightly startled, but thinking about it carefully, this fact is not so surprising.
"But she is the head's disciple. In the past, when the head was still calculating against you, that's all. Later, you and the head were almost torn apart. How could the head allow her to have such thoughts?" He added, "And to dispel her thoughts of you, it's actually very simple."
Hearing this, Wen Xuan actually understood. He sighed, leaned on the table, and lowered his eyes, "That is to say, the chief will tell her the truth, right?"
Jian Yi pursed his lips and did not speak, but his eyes had already told everything.
"So it is," Wen Xuan sighed repeatedly, "So it is. In the final analysis, it is because of my background."
No wonder Zhang Xiaoqing used to be as good as him, but now he is so afraid to avoid it. It turned out that it wasn't the rumors that changed her, but the facts themselves.
Later, Zhang Xiaoqing stopped Luo Qingquan, probably just worried about the bad consequences of Luo Qingquan and Wenxuan being involved too much. As for whether she also told Luo Qingquan the truth, or whether she only used the relationship between the two as a threat, it is unknown.
"Senior brother, don't be sad. Didn't I say it before? They are now like this, which can only prove that you don't need to take them to heart at all." Jian Yi took his hand and patted the back of his hand lightly, "Let's talk about it. ," Jian Jian lowered his head again, keeping his voice low, "To be honest, I was always jealous when I saw other people around you like that before."
Wenxuan knocked on his head, "You."
Yi Yi covered his head and stepped back, puffing out his mouth.
Wen Xuan's mood was inexplicably much better. Taking the current situation in exchange for that little comfort in Jian Yi's heart, after thinking about it, it's probably worth it.
"You said you were going to retreat before," Wen Xuan asked him again, "How is it?"
"It's probably just a few days ago." Simple replied, "Master has found a suitable exercise for me."
"Then go to retreat quickly, don't worry about things on my side."
"I'm about to tell you about this." Easy said, "Anyway, you're quite empty here, how about I retreat here?"
Wenxuan heard the words, but his face turned stern, "What kind of formality? Junior brother Jian, do you have the attitude of wanting to retreat with peace of mind?"
Simple was trained, bowed his head, and was very aggrieved.
Fortunately, Wenxuan knew that he said this just because he was worried about himself, so he quickly relaxed his face and advised gently, "I know what you are worried about. But don't worry, I am not as hard to see as you think. What's more , After you retreat, I almost have to retreat."
Speaking of which, Wenxuan used to go into retreat for three years and five years. During this period, he didn't see anyone, and he lived well, and he didn't feel lonely at all. This is enough to prove that everything is really just a matter of mentality at the moment.
Having said that, Jian Jian had no choice but to cancel his original plan and obediently returned to Qi Jibai to retreat.
In fact, to a certain extent, retreating on Qi Jibai's side is more convenient and simple.
But when he left from Wenxuan, Jian Jian turned back three times in one step, and was very reluctant. Wenxuan watched from behind, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
After Jian Yi left, Wen Xuan took another deep breath, patted his cheek, and devoted himself to his own practice.
In this way, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is another half a year. During the past six months, Wenxuan has been in seclusion almost all the time, only occasionally going out to take a breath. His reputation in the Shuiyun Sect still hasn't improved much, but fortunately he doesn't care about it anymore. The other disciples in the sect have also become accustomed to his simple-mindedness, and the head of the sect, Ji Ziang, has no further action, just pretending that there is no such person in the sect.
Ji Ziang now has a bigger thing to worry about, that is, the monster that was released from the ground before.
Originally, everyone thought that no matter how powerful the monster was, it would definitely not benefit from the cooperation of so many multi-infants, but the development of the fact was beyond everyone's expectations.
The monster has been hiding its figure, so that so many real people with multiple infants can't find it. And every once in a while, that monster will definitely show its minions from its dormancy, taking the lives of several or even dozens of monks. What is even more frightening is that as time goes by, the power of the monster seems to be getting stronger and stronger, and it has even begun to attack those small sects in recent months.
And with the pursuit of the monster, the real people of Yuan Ying gradually discovered that the monster was alone at the beginning, but later there were many followers. Those are all little demons who were originally hidden in the human world, and were called together by that monster. By the time these Nascent Soul real people finally reacted and started looking for the missing little demons, the little demons in the world had already been swept away by the monsters.
In the end, the only little demon that Nascent Soul could find was the shadow demon in Chu Lian's hand.
"Would you like to set a trap? Lure it?"
"Will you take the bait?"
"Try it, it's its disciples and grandchildren anyway."
The Nascent Souls made up their minds like this. But with Chu Lian's arrogance, he was disdainful to ask him to besiege a monster with so many Yuan Yings. In the end, Chu Lian returned to the Shuiyun Sect, and after discussing with Ji Ziang, he used the power of the sect to set up a formation.
This formation is arranged in a desolate mountain. According to Ji Ziang, even if this formation is not as good as Zongmen's mountain protection formation, it is not far behind. Chu Lian put the enchanted shadow demon into the formation's eyes and waited patiently for the demon to take the bait.
The rest of the Nascent Souls would not really trust Chu Lian alone, and responded outside.
This seems like a perfect arrangement. They don't believe it anymore, can the devil really go out of the sky? The only thing to worry about is probably what to do if the devil doesn't take the bait.
As a result, the devil really took the bait.
The development of things is beyond everyone's expectations.
During the gap between Wenxuan's retreat, he heard this shocking news.
The devil actually broke through the formation, directly robbed the shadow demon, and injured both Chu Lian and Ji Ziang who was guarding the formation.
