Wu bit her lip and looked at Tang Zheng with a complicated expression. She didn't expect him to be so stubborn, even in the face of such great difficulties, he would not compromise and would not go to Wu Zong.
Seeing that Tang Zheng turned around and left, but Wu didn't catch up, she had a lot of thoughts, and finally found that she still couldn't complete the task assigned by the suzerain, and she really couldn't bring Tang Zheng back to Wuzong.
On the same day, she left the capital and returned to Wuzong.
From a distance, she saw the suzerain's wife Lan Yu, and hurriedly called out respectfully: "Master."
Lan Yu was still beautiful, more charming than the flowers blooming in spring, and said with a smile like a flower: "Wu, you are back, what task did your master ask you to perform, and it took so long to go away. Besides, your master has changed since he came back last time. It's a bit weird, and I don't want to say anything, and I have been retreating."
With a twitch in Wu's heart, he asked, "Master is in retreat?"
"Yes, I think he seems to have encountered some problem and has become taciturn, even I don't want to say more." Lan Yu said suspiciously.
Wu tentatively asked: "Master, there is a question that has been hidden in my heart for a long time. I haven't had a chance to ask it for so many years. I wonder if Master can explain it to me?"
Lan Yu touched her hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "I almost brought you up with my own hands, just like my daughter. My daughter and mother can't ask any questions."
Wu showed a rare smile, and said: "Master's kindness to me, I will never forget it in my life."
"Silly girl, ask."
"Master, I heard that you and Master once had a child?"
When Lan Yu heard this, his smile disappeared quickly, and he became extremely sad, and said, "Wu, why do you want to ask this question?"
Wu's heart tightened, and he said anxiously: "Master, it's all my fault, I shouldn't ask this question."
Lan Yu shook his head and said: "It's too long ago, if you don't mention it, I will almost forget it."
Even so, it was clear that she hadn't forgotten about it at all.
"Your master and I once had a son. If he was born in another family, he would be happy and healthy, a lively and lovely child, but he was born into the wrong family and went out to Wuzong, and his fate became a tragedy. " Lan Yu fell into the memory, with deep pain appearing between her brows.
"Master, why did you say that? It should be his luck to have parents like Master and Master?" Wu Da was puzzled.
"Wrong, having parents like us is his greatest misfortune. It wasn't long before we brought him into this world, but we finally wiped him out of this world." Tears flashed in Lan Yu's eyes, and his emotions fluctuated great.
With a twitch in Wu's heart, he asked, "Could it be that something happened to him?"
"Hmph, unfortunately? It's because some people can't tolerate him as a little baby, and even killed him, and some people can't even keep their own sons, what a loser!" Lan Yu's eyes burst out with a spark of hatred.
Wu Da was surprised!
Could this be her master
Could it be that Master killed his own son with his own hands
Wu was greatly taken aback by his own thought, a look of panic appeared on his face, he hurriedly comforted himself silently, it couldn't be like this, it was just his own wild thinking.
"Master, master is so strong in martial arts, why can't he protect his child?" Wu asked nervously.
"What's the use of high martial arts, but he obeyed the man's orders, and he didn't even have the courage to resist."
To whom does the master obey
Wu had never seen anyone with such prestige, even the elders of Wu Zong did not dare to trust Master, especially the Great Elder was the confidant of the previous Suzerain, but he did not dare to show Master's face.
The previous suzerain
With a twitch in Wu's heart, he finally guessed a little bit. If there is anyone in this world who can make the master obey, it can only be the deceased former Wuzong suzerain.
Could it be that the former sect wanted to kill the children of the master and his wife
Why is this
Wu is really confused.
Wu asked suspiciously: "Master, are you talking about the previous suzerain?"
Seeing that she had guessed it, Lan Yu didn't hide it, snorted coldly, and said, "Who else could it be? That old bastard, he killed my newborn son for an unfounded reason."
A fierce spark of hatred burst out from Lan Yu's eyes.
Wu was taken aback, and the teacher bluntly called the previous suzerain an old thing, so it seems that the conflict between the two parties is not as deep as usual.
However, this also aroused Wu's strong curiosity. Even if there were too many secrets in it that could not be understood by outsiders, she still wanted to know the right and wrong in it.
"Master, why did the old suzerain do such cruel things to a baby?"
Lan Yu stared straight at Wu, and asked, "Wu, why do I feel that you are a little strange today, why did you think of asking this question?"
"I just have a whim, just ask."
Lan Yu shook his head and said, "I raised you since childhood, how could I not understand you? Is there something you are hiding from me?"
After all, the eyes are piercing, giving people a feeling of piercing the heart.
Wu panicked, and quickly covered it up: "Master, how could I hide it from you?"
"Hehe, you still want to lie to me. If you don't tell me, I can go directly to your master and ask. You have never really hidden anything from him since you were a child. I believe he will be very clear about it." Lan Yu said.
"Don't go to Master." Wu couldn't help regretting that he was too curious. Regarding Tang Zheng's matter, since Master kept everyone else in the dark, there must be a reason.
If the mistress asks in person, but the master refuses to tell her, the already fragile relationship between the two parties will become fragmented.
As a person who has been with them day and night for decades, Wu is of course very clear about the relationship between the two. Although the two of them are husband and wife, there is not much difference in the eyes of ordinary people. In fact, the relationship between the two is very tense and they have been separated for many years.
Wu doesn't want to put Master in a dilemma, let alone his married life being affected by it.
Besides, she thought of another possibility, since the master couldn't let Tang Zheng return to Wu Zong willingly, what would happen if the master stepped in
Thinking of this, hope rekindled in Wu's heart. If this is the case, telling his wife about this may turn things around.
Even if Master would scold her in the future, she would bear it willingly.
"Master, there is one thing I want to tell you. Would you like to take a look at this photo first?" Wu opened a photo on his phone, and it was Tang Zheng.
Lan Yu stared blankly at the photo, and asked suspiciously, "Who is he?"
"His name is Tang Zheng, and he is a cultivator." Wu stared at her intently, hoping to catch the subtle changes in her expression.
"Cultivator?" Lan Yu frowned suspiciously, and said solemnly: "Wu, show me who he is. It can't be as simple as a cultivator, right?"
"Master, I have been performing missions many times these days because of him. He is a newly rising cultivator, and his strength is already higher than mine."
"How is that possible? It took so many years for you to achieve what you are today under the training of your master, and he is a cultivator. How could he have such a high level when the cultivator is facing such a big predicament? Cultivation?" Lan Yu questioned.
Although she usually ignores Wu Zong's affairs, but she has been deeply influenced by her ears and eyes, and she is naturally no stranger to the situation of cultivators.
"I don't understand either. Maybe he is the legendary genius cultivator who was born for cultivation. When I first met him, his strength was still very weak, but he surpassed me after a few months. It is also impossible to explain the whole story, and according to the investigation, he has not practiced for a full year."
"What, it hasn't been a year yet?" Lan Yu was startled, with an unthinkable look on his brows, "Impossible, where is there such a genius in this world?"
Wu also didn't want to believe it, but the facts were in front of her eyes, and she couldn't allow her not to believe it.
"But it's absolutely true."
Lan Yu's frown became tighter and tighter. Although it was incredible, she also knew that Wu would not lie to her, so she continued to ask: "Wu, why didn't your master kill him for such a genius?"
"I can't explain clearly, but the suzerain's order is for him to return to Wuzong willingly. Another point is that he has a jade pendant with the word 'Wu' engraved on him. The suzerain said it belonged to Wuzong."
"Jade pendant." Upon hearing this, Lan Yu's expression fluctuated violently, "This jade pendant is the treasure of Wu Zong, and only the suzerain and suzerain's successors are eligible to wear it. It was lost in your master's hands back then. I was almost kicked out of Wuzong by that old man, how could it be on a cultivator?"
"Could it be that Master put it on him back then?" Wu thought of a possibility and said impatiently.
Lan Yu's expression changed drastically, turning pale, and his body trembling. He grabbed Wu's hand and said, "You mean it's possible that your master put it on him?"
Seeing such a big reaction from Master's wife, Wu was taken aback, and said angrily, "This is just my guess, and only Master will know what the real situation is."
However, Lan Yu's heart set off a turbulent wave, scenes of memory fragments jumped and flashed in her mind like a movie.
"It was after that incident that he lost that jade pendant. He had always worn that jade pendant next to his body, and he would never take it off even when he was taking a bath and sleeping. Why was it lost inexplicably? Back then, I was immersed in the pain of losing my son. , I didn't notice this abnormal situation at all. No, things must not be that simple back then, I must go to him and ask him clearly. "
Lan Yu's heart fluttered, thinking silently.
Seeing Mistress's expression fluctuating and becoming more and more agitated, Wu hurriedly asked: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Lan Yu quickly said, "Send me this photo right away, and I'm going to ask your master for clarification."
"Isn't Master in seclusion? He told anyone not to disturb him." Wu said worriedly.
"Hmph, retreat, if you don't explain this clearly, he still wants to retreat? Dreaming!" In an instant, the aura on Lan Yu's body became very fierce, causing Wu's heart to jump suddenly.
