'g? Isn't this a bit too much?!' Yun Wuji stood there, stunned. 'Why did she have su intense rea to such a small gesture? Did it trigger some memories?' He quickly started to ponder.
Since Yun Wuji knew both her past and future, it wasn't difficult to uand her odd behavior toward him. After her behavior, he easily deduced that she was treating him as a rept for her deceased lover.
When he realized this, he decided to py along.
Naturally, he had no problem with it.
Did being made a rept for another man make him angry? Well, if it had been a womaruly cared for, like Chu Yue, Xia Qingyue, or his other wives, he would, of course, never be able to accept it. But in this situation, what was there to care about?
To him, Luo Guxie was merely a tool to help him quickly reach greater heights. Since he was treating her as a tool, why should he be angry if she was doing the same?
That would just be hypocrisy.
Although he was fident and arrogant, that didn't mean he was foolish. On the trary, he was very flexible, able to bend and stretch when necessary, especially in this new enviro where most people were strohan him.
Needlessly provoking others out of pride isn't fide's insecurity and stupidity.
He leaned forward aly wiped the tear from her cheek, his voice soft as he asked, "Master, are you alright?"
Hearing his voice, Luo Guxie seemed tain her posure. However, instead of answering him, she raised her hands, gently holding Yun Wuji's hand, which was toug her cheek, and pressed her cheek against it.
She closed her eyes, leaning into his touch as she gently rubbed her cheek against his hand.
After a moment, she stood up, her hands gripping Yun Wuji's shoulders. She stared at him with unfocused eyes, her vision blurring as the face of Ning Danqing began to overp with Yun Wuji's. Slowly, she leaned in closer.
"Master?" Yun Wuji suddenly called out.
"Ah?!" His shout woke Luo Guxie from her trance. Her eyes regained focus, and as she realized what she was doing, she softly excimed.
She quickly let go of him and, after giving him a plicated look, turo leave. After taking two steps, her figure vanished.
Staring at the empty hall, Yun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to be pushed down agaiill remembered clearly what happened with Jasmin.
'Just you wait, once I catch you, I'll spank your butt,' Yun Wuji muttered inwardly, gritting his teeth as he thought of that unreliable portable Star God.
He slumped bato his chair and closed his eyes. Holy, he never expected her to have such a stroion. Even after thhly assessing her obsessioill uimated Luo Guxie's obsession with Ning Danqing.
'Well, the more she's obsessed with that guy, the better it is for me,' Yun Wuji quickly pushed the thought aside.
...
One day ter, the profound ark arrived at the Holy Eaves Realm. Stepping out, Yun Wuji gazed at the vast realm before him.
It was a massive star realm, far rger than the Snow Song Realm, and not only was it bigger, but the tration of profound energy here was more thaimes denser. Yun Wuji felt refreshed simply from breathing the air.
This was just the ordinary area of the Holy Eaves Realm, and it was already this impressive. What about the cultivation rooms, optimized specifically for cultivation? And if the High-Rank Star Realm was already this extraordinary, what must the King Realm be like?
No wonder all the High-Rank Star Realms had a Divine Master. The Middle Rank and High-Rank Star Realms were oirely different levels.
'Sooner or ter, all of this and more will be mine,' Yun Wuji thought silently as he took a deep breath and gazed at the vast expanse before him.
"Let's go meet Luo gsheng and the Realm King," Luo Guxie said, holding his hand. She then pulled him along and flew toward the ter of the Holy Eaves Realm. After being alone for a while, she had already regained her posure, after all, she was a ten-thousand-year-old monster.
'Wait! Mu Xuanyin, Mu Bingyun, and Chi Wuyao are also ten-thousand-year-old monsters. I'd better not call them that,' Yun Wuji suddenly shuddered and he quickly bahis thought.
If any of them knew what he was thinking, even the usually gentle Mu Bingyun would make him suffer.
With the speed of a Divine Master, it took only a few seds to reach their destination.
When they arrived, a group of people was already waiting for them.
Leading the group was a middle-aged man, his bck beard reag down to his abdomen. He had a handsome face, though the long beard rui. Standing with his hands behind his back, he gave off an imposing aura.
By his side stood a young man in white clothes, appearing to be around 17 or 18 years old, with fresh, clear skin. His feminiures gave him a appearance, adding a touch of delicacy. At first gnce, he resembled a schor.
When the middle-aged man saw Luo Guxie, a smile spread across his face. He stepped forward and said, "Guxie, you're finally back."
Right after he greeted her, the group of people behind him also stepped forward and said, "Greetings, Fairy Guxie."
The young man, Luo gsheng, smiled and walked to her side. "Master, you've been away for a long time. This disciple was worried about you," he said. He then g Yun Wuji, his eyes narrowing as he frowned. "Master, who is this?"
Why is this boy, with only the cultivation of the Divine in Realm, standing beside Luo Guxie?
It's worth mentioning that before leaving the profound ark, Yun Wuji ged his appearance. After all, even if Luo Guxie wasn't afraid of offending ao protect him, that didn't mean she had the ability to keep him safe.
Ign Qianye Ying'er's own strength, the Brahma Mod Realm's power could make anyone in the Eastern Divine Region despair. Their strength alone surpassed the bined might of the three other King Realms.
This was ign Gu Zhu and the two Old Aors, whose strength was on par with Qianye Fantian.
After ging his appearance, he now looked like a very handsome young man, with pure white hair and gem-like purple eyes.
The middle-aged man, Luo Shang, and the other elders also looked at Yun Wuji. They had noticed him before he and Luo Guxie even arrived.
Though curious, none of them spoke.
"This is my new disciple, Fei Yang," Luo Guxie said, pg her hand on Yun Wuji's shoulder as she introduced him. She turo Yun Wuji and added, "Fei Yang, this is your senior brother, Luo gsheng."
Yun Wuji csped his hands and bowed slightly. "Greetings, Senior Brother," he said, before turning to the others. "Greetings, Seniors."
"A disciple?!" Everyone present was taken aback, but Luo gsheng, in particur, stared at Yun Wuji in disbelief. How could someone like his master take in another disciple?!
However, even though he had many questions and pints, he was smart enough not to voice them right now.
After all, there were other fools who could do that for him.
"Fairy Guxie isn't... isn't this inappropriate?! This boy's cultivation is only at the 2nd level of the Divine in Realm. Why would you..." At this moment, an elder couldn't help but speak up.
"What do you mean, only at the Divine in Realm? Do you expect me to take in a Divine Sn or a Divine Master as a disciple?!" Luo Guxie gred at the elder who had spoken. "If that were the case, what would be the point of taking him as a disciple in the first pce?!"
"..." The elder's words froze in his throat as he met her gre. His legs began to tremble, and he quickly retreated behind Luo Shang.
"Sister, don't be angry. Elder Hei is just ed about your reputation," Luo Shang quickly stepped forward, trying to calm her.
"My reputation? Heh! Isn't it your Holy Eaves Realm's reputation you're worried about?" Luo Guxie narrowed her eyes and scoffed. "But it seems you've fotten something...I'm...not a member of this realm. So what does your reputation have to do with me?! I've already given you face by inf you, and now you're telling me what to do?"
"The gall!"
She k was her brother who had pushed that elder to speak. She uood all too well how much this so-called good brother of hers valued his reputation and that of the Holy Eaves Realm. He was just like that dog of a father of theirs. It recisely because of this obsession with reputation that they had killed Ning Danqing!
"Master!" At that moment, Luo gsheng's voice rang out. He quickly stepped between her and Luo Shang and said, "Father and Elder Hei are just surprised and ed. Please don't misuand them."
"Right, Father?" he said, turning around to look at Luo Shang.
"Hmm, Guxie, we were just surprised by your decision. Since you personally took this boy as your disciple, he must have somethiraordinary about him," Luo Shang said, giving Yun Wuji a deep, scrutinizing look before nodding.
"..." Luo Guxie ignored him and turo Luo gsheng. "gsheng, take your junior brother to look around," she said.
"Yes, Master," Luo gsheng replied respectfully. He then smiled at Yun Wuji and said, "Junior Brother Fei, please e with me."
'Your skills are not bad; you be qualified to be half a hypocrite,' Yun Wuji thought as he looked at the man's smile. He returned a simir smile and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Senior Brother."
While leading Yun Wuji, Luo gsheng pyed the role of a host, showing him around.
While talking, he also introduced the structure of the Holy Eaves Realm. Uhe Snow Song Realm, which had many subsidiary sects, the Holy Eaves Realm had only o, the Holy Eaves Sect. However, there were many kingdoms that served u.
Usually, the kingdoms had to pay tribute every 100 years.
They were also where the sect recruited new disciples.
"Junior Brother Fei, I'm somewhat curious. you tell me how you met Master?" After walking for a long while, Luo gsheng suddenly asked, his expression filled with curiosity.
Although he had maintained a gentle and refined appearahe whole time, deep down he was boiling with ay and anger. He couldn't accept that his aunt, who had raised him and poured all her attention and effort into him since he was young, would actually take on another disciple!
All along, he had felt special, the way Luo Guxie treated him made him believe he was the ter of her world, her raison d'être!
So when Fei Yang suddenly appeared, he exerted an untold effort to maintain a ral expression; he couldn't accept it! It was as if a child, used to having his toy all to himself, was suddenly forced to share it with another.
'Oh, so you're asking how I met your master, my dear stepson?' Yun Wuji gnced sideways at Luo gsheng's feminine appearand sneered. 'Nah, I wouldn't want a son like you.'
He smiled and replied, "Hmm, the way I met Master was a very fortunate ce. How should I put it... Master saved my life, and then took me as her disciple. She said that I am very talented."
"So to me, she is not only my master but also my lifesaver."
"...Master saved your life?" Luo gsheng was surprised. He suddenly ughed and said, "Junior Brother Fei, it must've been fate that we became brothers then, haha."
"Hahaha, it is my honor to be your junior brother, Brother Luo," Yun Wuji also ughed and patted him on the shoulder.
They resumed their walk, ughing and talking amiably. Along the way, Luo gsheng tio probe Yun Wuji's background, but of course, Yun Wuji only fed him some random nonsense. If even Luo Guxie didn't know his true background, how could he reveal anything to this sissy?!
After half a day, Luo gsheng brought Yun Wuji to a small pad handed him an exquisitely made brooken. "This is your authority token. With it, you go anywhere in the Holy Eaves Realm, except for a few forbidden areas. Please keep it safe."
He then looked around and added, "This will be your new residence. Master lives in that pce over there," he poio a pace a few kilometers west, which was Luo Guxie's. "And I usually live in that pace. If you need me, you always e to my pce, Junior Brother." He poio another pa the southern dire.
"I'll keep that in mind, thank you, Senior Brother," Yun Wuji took the token from him and thanked him with a smile.
After saying a few more words, Luo gshe.
'I hope you take good care of me, dear senior brother, hehehe,' Yun Wuji stood in front of the pace gate, watg Luo gsheng recede into the distance.
