Pushing open a palace door, Yao Yue and Lian Xing stepped in with the awed eyes of the slaves outside.
"Disciple, you are here!"
A weak voice came from the inner hall.
An old woman sat up from the jade bed and opened the curtain. A smile appeared on her wrinkled old face.
Seeing this face, Yao Yue inexplicably remembered what she would look like a hundred years from now. Her heart trembled, and her fear of aging increased.
The master is very old. She once accidentally mentioned that he was said to have lived for nearly two hundred years.
At that time, the master was quite proud. After all, at this age, he was considered to have a long life among the masters.
Martial arts masters can only rely on the power of heaven and earth, but their strength is stronger than that of innate warriors, but the gap in the nature of life is not so big that it is insurmountable.
Unless you can be promoted to Grand Master, master the laws of heaven and earth, and improve your life level, your longevity will not increase significantly.
"I failed to break through to become a Grandmaster!"
There was a trace of regret in the old palace master's eyes.
"It stands to reason that if one's lifespan exceeds one hundred years, there is basically no hope of being promoted to a grand master. But as a teacher, he is not convinced. Over the years, he has tried almost every ten years, but unfortunately, he has failed every time."
She sighed, "I didn't believe in fate before. I always felt that even if my fate was determined, there would definitely be a chance of survival. But now, I accept my fate."
Yao Yue muttered: "Master, it stands to reason that Yihua Palace belongs to the holy land of martial arts. You have always been able to become the master of this holy land, and your martial arts qualifications are definitely among the best.
You always need qualifications, skills, and resources, but why..."
"You are asking why I was not promoted to Grand Master before I turned 100, right?"
Yaoyue nodded.
"Actually, there's nothing that can't be said, it's just a little embarrassing."
A trace of reminiscence appeared on the wrinkled old face of the old palace master.
"I was only seven years old when my master, your master, accepted me as his disciple."
"I have practiced in Yihua Palace for more than 20 years. At the age of thirty, I became a Double Flower Grandmaster, and he is still the top one. Your master speculates that under normal circumstances, as long as I don't slack off, before I am sixty years old, There is a high probability that he can become a grand master.
Even if there are some deviations, there is no problem in being promoted to Grand Master before the age of 100.
Therefore, your master felt relieved and passed on the position of Palace Master to me, and then went to sea to travel around the world.
After more than a hundred years, I never saw her again. I don’t know if she is alive or dead now.
But come to think of it, there is a high probability that she is still alive. After all, your master is a great master, who single-handedly founded the Holy Land of Yihua Palace, and is also recognized by the court. He is powerful and has a long life, not a short-lived ghost like me. "
Yao Yue snorted and said with a faint smile, "Then Master, how did you end up like this?"
"Because of men!"
The old palace master looked tired and his voice was very low. "After taking over the position of palace master, I couldn't hold back my yearning for the outside world. I left the palace to travel. Then, I met a person who I can't forget to this day. man."
Invitation and sister Lianxing looked at each other, then touched their chins and analyzed: "Master, did you meet a scumbag, cheated on your feelings and body, and then abandoned you?"
Old Palace Master: "......"
You just met a scumbag. Your whole family is a scumbag!
"No, he and I had a very good relationship, and we knew each other and loved each other. However, when I was sixty years old, he failed to forcefully break through to the Grand Master realm and became possessed and died.
His death left a huge shadow on me, which made my soul as a teacher no longer perfect. Since then, I have wasted decades and even missed the best opportunity for promotion. "
Yao Yue was in awe. She thought it was a story about a scumbag cheating on the saint's feelings, but it turned out to be a story about pure love for the God of War, who was hurt by love and even delayed his cultivation.
My husband said that I am the yandere version of the pure love god of war, so what version of my master is that?
"Ask what love is in this world, and it will teach you how to make love between life and death!"
Yaoyue said with emotion: "Master, don't worry, after you leave, I will definitely bury you and master together. You will not be alone on the road to hell!"
The old palace master lowered his eyes and snorted coldly, "Don't joke around with me here. With your intelligence, you should understand what I want to say!"
The smile on Yao Yue's face faded, "Master, are you going to pass the position of palace master to me?"
"I want to pass it on to you, but you have to agree to a request as a master!"
Yaoyue didn't speak, just stared at her.
The old palace master thought to himself and said: "As long as you are willing to swear that you will never marry or have feelings for a man in this life, the position of the third generation palace master of Yihua Palace will be passed on to you as a teacher!
Moreover, my teacher will also tell you all the secrets in Yihua Palace! "
Yao Yue shook her head.
"You don't agree?" The old palace master's face darkened.
"Why did I agree?" Yao Yue said expressionlessly, "You have enjoyed the love between men and women, but now you ask others not to do it. You are playing a double standard with me, right?"
"Yao Yue! I am your master!" The anger in the old palace master's eyes seemed to burst out, "Look at you, you look like you respect your master!"
"Master!"
Yaoyue glanced at her and said, "I call you master to save you some face. The relationship between master and disciple between you and me is not very deep!"
"I'm doing this for your own good, teacher!"
The old palace master sighed: "The love between men and women is the most hurtful. Whether it is true love or tragic love, it will always make people sad. If one thing is not done well, the road to martial arts will be cut off!
Do you also want to follow the old path of being a master, stuck in front of the threshold of a great master for more than a hundred years, unable to make any progress, and finally turn into such a gray-haired old woman? "
Yaoyue's expression remained unchanged, "Even so, I will marry him!"
There was a coldness in her eyes, and she stared at the old palace master and said solemnly: "Counting the time, it won't be long before he comes to marry me. I have been waiting for this day for a long time.
Whoever stops me will be my life and death enemy. Master, please don’t put this disciple in trouble! "
The old palace master stared at her, was silent for a long time, and hummed: "In that case, I won't embarrass you as a teacher. The position of palace master is no longer destined for you!"
She turned to look at Lian Xing beside her, her face softened a little, "You swear that you will never marry for the rest of your life. This position of palace master will be passed on to you as my master!"
Lian Xing shook her head, pursed her lips and said softly: "I don't dare to snatch my sister's things!"
puff! !
The old palace master spat out a mouthful of old blood and pointed at Yao Yue, "You said, voluntarily give up the position of palace master and give up the position to Lian Xing, say it quickly!"
"That's not possible!" Yao Yue shook her head and refused again, "I'm getting married, so I have to bring some dowry, right?
He is going to be the commander of the Xuanyi Guards. As the owner of Yihua Palace in the Holy Land, my wife, he has a bright face, right? "
