Shen Miaoling motioned to Xiyun to take over the bond of betrayal. Xiyun took it over and inspected it before holding back her excitement.
"Miss, this is my contract of sale, great!"
Shen Miaoling smiled slightly, "From now on, you will keep this deed of betrayal yourself."
Thinking that the young lady was going to travel far away in two days, Xiyun felt a mixture of sadness and joy, not knowing what to say.
But Shen Zhaoran couldn't sit still anymore. His second sister became an immortal master, and one person attained the Tao, which is the right match for a chicken or a dog to ascend to heaven.
"Second sister, can you help me introduce you to your master?"
Shen Miaoling refused, "My master is very busy and doesn't like to see people waiting around."
Shen Zhaoran was a little unhappy when he heard this, but he also knew that Shen Miaoling was no longer what he used to be, and he was no longer the soft persimmon who could be manipulated by her in the past.
The identities of the two have been completely swapped.
"It's just an introduction. Since that immortal master is willing to accept you as his disciple, he might also be willing to give me some advice."
"Brother, you are overthinking. Cultivation is not as simple as you think. Only those with spiritual roots can practice. Otherwise, they are just ordinary people."
Shen Zhaoran's heart moved. The immortal master invited by the mansion had also talked about spiritual roots.
However, the former teacher spoke vaguely. He seemed to understand but did not understand at all. He had no idea what spiritual roots were.
"Then second sister, please help me see if I have any spiritual roots?"
Shen Miaoling shook her head.
"I'm just starting out, how can I tell if my elder brother has spiritual roots?"
Shen Zhaoran felt a little disappointed and asked without giving up.
"Then you can teach me these immortal skills you have learned?"
"Don't say that I don't have the qualifications to teach magic. Even if I do, if my brother doesn't have spiritual roots, he won't be able to learn it."
Shen Miaoling stood up and said, "I will be traveling with Master the day after tomorrow. If there is nothing else, brother, I will go and say goodbye to dad first."
"Second sister, don't leave in a hurry."
Shen Zhaoran felt anxious and quickly stood up and called her to stop.
However, Shen Miaoling kept walking and he did not dare to force her to stay, so he could only watch her leave.
He thought for a moment and ordered people to prepare horses and horses and generous gifts.
He wanted to visit the reclusive immortal master in person. Maybe the immortal master would accept him as his disciple after seeing his sincerity.
On the other side, Shen Miaoling went to the study room and said goodbye to her father.
"I am traveling with my master this time, and my return date has not yet been determined. I come here to say goodbye to my father."
The old Duke was a little surprised, but the power of the Duke's palace had already been handed over to his eldest son. Since Zhao'er had no objection, he naturally had no objection.
He nodded slightly, "No matter where you go, you need to remember that you are always a member of the Duke's Mansion."
Shen Miaoling felt unhappy, but did not show it, and just responded lightly.
Although the old Duke was her biological father, he never paid much attention to her as a daughter.
When her eye was accidentally injured, he only asked someone to ask about it, but did not come to see her in person.
This time she left with her master, and she didn’t know when she would come back next time.
Anyway, her greeting was just a formality, and more importantly, she asked for her mother's tablet.
"I want to take away my mother's tablet."
The old Duke paused for a moment, thinking of the beautiful and frail woman who died young.
"Your mother's tablet is well placed in the ancestral hall. If you take it with you, won't you make her homeless?"
"Instead of letting her sit alone in the ancestral hall, waiting for other people to worship her without sincerity, it is better for me to take her with me."
The old Duke was speechless and sighed slightly for a while.
"That's all, take it with you if you want. After all these years, I have failed you and my daughter..."
Shen Miaoling was too lazy to listen anymore, stood up with the bamboo pole and walked towards the door.
Just when Shen Miaoling was heading to the ancestral hall, Shen Zhaoran had already ordered horses, horses and gifts to be prepared and rushed towards the immortal master's residence.
Naturally, he didn't believe what Shen Miaoling said before.
The immortal master who came to the Duke's Mansion at the beginning was still pretending to be a master, but it didn't take long for him to give out. He was greedy for fine wine, fancy clothes, and devoted himself to having fun.
From then on, Shen Zhaoran knew that immortal masters were also mortals.
Apart from being a master of mysterious magic, he is no different from ordinary people.
Shen Zhaoran was full of confidence. With the financial resources of the Duke's government, he could do whatever the immortal master asked him to do.
Turning all the way into the alley, seeing that he was about to arrive, he got off the carriage, straightened his clothes, and went up to knock on the courtyard door.
"Is the Immortal Master in the courtyard? I am Shen Miaoling's brother. Feeling the Immortal Master's care for my sister, I came here to pay my respects to the Immortal Master."
The door creaked open, but there was no one behind it.
Shen Zhaoran was shocked at first, and then realized that this was the Xian family's method.
His heart became more and more passionate. Over the years, his biggest regret was that he could not become a disciple of that immortal master.
But God was so pitiful that he met another immortal master.
This time, he would seize the opportunity no matter what!
Shen Zhaoran took a deep breath to calm down the tension in his heart, stepped into the yard, and immediately saw the ethereal figure under the osmanthus tree.
He didn't dare to look more and bowed deeply.
"The Immortal Master is merciful and takes pity on my second sister's blindness. He accepts her as his disciple. Being valued by the Immortal Master is a blessing for my second sister and also a blessing for the Duke of our country.
I used to worry that my second sister would not find a good home, but now I can finally feel relieved. "
Xu Chunniang's eyes fell on the person in front of her. He called Shen Miaoling his sister. Thinking about it, she must be the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion.
There seemed to be some discrepancies between what she saw yesterday and what he was saying now.
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, "I already know your thoughts. If you have nothing else to do, just go back."
Shen Zhaoran was a little stunned. The immortal master issued an order to expel him so quickly?
Could it be that the Immortal Master saw the actions of those people yesterday?
Several thoughts flashed through Shen Zhaoran's mind and he hurriedly explained.
"Master Immortal, please don't misunderstand me. I am concerned about my second sister's marriage, and it is purely for the rest of her life.
However, my second sister has always misunderstood me, and she didn’t even want to go back home, so she moved here alone..."
After a pause, Shen Zhaoran continued.
"I came today to thank the Immortal Master, and I have prepared a small gift. I hope the Immortal Master will not dislike it."
As he spoke, he ordered people to bring in the things he had prepared.
"The things of this world are of no use to me."
Xu Chunniang only glanced at the courtyard door, and the door closed automatically. No matter how hard the people outside tried, they could not push it open.
Shen Zhaoran was surprised and happy. This immortal master seemed to be much more powerful than the one he met when he was a child.
As long as you can worship her as your teacher, why worry about not being able to learn the magic of immortality?
Shen Zhaoran gritted his teeth, knelt down with a thump, and kowtowed three times.
"My dear Immortal Master, please accept me as your disciple. Whatever you ask for, as long as I, Shen Zhaoran, can do it, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Xu Chunniang closed her eyes and shook her head slightly.
"You have no spiritual roots and are destined to be unable to practice in this life. Please go back."
