In the inner gate of Tianling Holy Land, each peak lineage comes from the same sect, and they have a relatively harmonious relationship with each other.
When passing by the square connected to Hongqiao, we will all chat with each other.
A huge square, paved with white jade.
The clouds are lingering and steaming.
Although the costumes of the disciples of each lineage are different, they all maintain their magnanimity. They are all young people of similar age. The core figures of each peak, the Holy Son and the Holy Lady, are the leaders of the Tianling Holy Land.
"I heard that the Holy Master has accepted a new disciple, I don't know if it's true or not." A female disciple from the inner sect said with a rather curious tone.
"The Holy Lord has always liked peace and quiet, so how could he suddenly accept a disciple again? It's probably just a rumor."
Another female disciple echoed: "I think so too. With such status as the Holy Master, how can he accept disciples casually?"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the fairy mist dispersed, and the girls saw a female disciple not far away who looked like a beautiful woman. She was dressed in rosy clothes and had a peerless grace, just like a goddess in a painting.
The surrounding disciples recognized this stunning woman and showed admiration. They stopped to watch or greeted her respectfully.
"Maybe senior sister knows."
They looked at each other, smiled, and immediately stepped forward to salute and ask.
The stunning woman turned out to be Ji Hongye. Apart from working for the master's office, she spent the rest of the time practicing alone, so she just came back.
"New disciple?" Ji Hongye smiled and shook his head.
'That's not a new disciple, he's Master's husband. '
Ji Hongye added in her mind without speaking out, then she glanced around and continued: "Junior sister, you guessed wrong. She is not Master's new disciple."
"Senior Sister, was he really carried back to the temple by the Holy Lord?"
"Yes, yes, I heard that the Holy Master doted on him. Not only did he give the treasure elixir, but he also escorted it himself!" The female disciple agreed, with a hint of jealousy in her expression.
Ji Hongye thought for a moment and said, "That's right."
Anyway, Master has an affair with his father-in-law, and the secret will be revealed sooner or later. It is the same for the disciples in the sect who know it sooner or later.
If that master walked out of the temple and heard that the master in the sect loved him deeply, I think he would be moved.
Wow!
After receiving Ji Hongye's reply, all the surrounding disciples were shocked, but the old disciples were all confused.
Who is it? What virtues and abilities are there?
From the beginning to the end, they had never heard of the Holy Lord giving special treatment to a person, let alone carrying him back to the temple.
"Sister, what kind of person is that?"
Ji Hongye shook her head. She had only briefly met her master once. At that time, he was still lying in his arms. At that time, she felt that this person must be of noble status.
The junior sister on the side guessed: "To be treated like this by the Holy Lord, he must be some kind of extraordinary genius, or he must be the future leader of the temple."
"How is it possible? Senior Sister is the one we all hope for."
"Could it be that there is something with three heads and six arms?"
"..."
This matter immediately became one of the topics that many inner disciples talked about.
Ji Hongye said goodbye with a smile and left.
She herself is actually very curious, what kind of person is her master who can win the heart of her master?
However, Ji Hongye did not ask. After all, this was a private matter between the master and his master. How could he dare to pry into it?
She only knew that her master's name was Jiang Yunyi, that he was young but his cultivation speed was astonishingly fast, and she didn't know anything else.
At the same time, the Supreme Elder and others were obviously aware of the existence of their master, and even had a close relationship with him. They wanted to visit him several times, but were stopped by their master for a simple reason.
The master is still cultivating, so it is not appropriate to disturb him.
It's obvious that Master doesn't want others to get close to him...
While walking on the road, Ji Hongye thought of what Master once said: "When a person wants to leave, why do you always want to lock him in a cage forever?"
It seems that Master has a strong desire to control.
Thinking of this, Ji Hongye couldn't help but feel ripples in her heart. She was looking forward to meeting that master.
While walking, a strange voice interrupted Ji Hongye's thoughts.
"Lu Ningshuang, are you free?"
He called him by his first name without any inhibitions.
Ji Hongye looked up and found that he had arrived at the back hall of the temple without knowing it!
When she saw the handsome young man in the hospital, she was stunned for a moment.
This place has been rebuilt into a warm courtyard by Lu Ningshuang.
The fragrance of flowers floated in the courtyard, covered by green trees, while Jiang Yunyi was practicing with his sword, while his master sat aside and gave instructions.
The breeze blows slowly and the fallen leaves drift, as if depicting a beautiful picture.
"Yun Yi, if you want to practice sword practice, I'll teach you."
"unnecessary."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Ningshuang's aura suddenly changed.
Jiang Yunyi was startled by her sudden momentum, and felt chills all over her body, as if she was being stared at by some kind of danger.
"Lu Ningshuang, what are you doing!?"
Jiang Yunyi felt inexplicably flustered.
Lu Ningshuang was usually isolated from the world and as cold as ice.
Why did he react so loudly when he refused? Could it be that he had angered her?
I saw Lu Ningshuang flicking her wrist, a gust of cold wind blew, and the red door outside the courtyard closed tightly with a "snap"!
Ji Hongye, who was outside the hospital, was affected and flew backwards, knocking over several giant trees before stopping.
His internal organs were shaken and his mouth was bleeding.
'Suffer it! '
Ji Hongye could feel the master's murderous intention just now, and he really wanted to put her to death!
at the same time.
Jiang Yunyi in the courtyard suddenly turned to look at the door, as if he noticed something, then turned to Lu Ningshuang and asked, "Is there someone outside?"
Lu Ningshuang nodded and didn't hide anything from him.
"Nothing, Yun Yi, you continue to practice swordsmanship, I will teach you."
After saying these words again, Jiang Yunyi pursed his lips, but ultimately did not refuse.
He was not afraid, because he knew Lu Ningshuang's character very well and would not be angry for no reason.
Now it seemed that the person outside had touched Lu Ningshuang's bottom line, so he was repulsed by her behind closed doors. After witnessing Lu Ningshuang's power with his own eyes, Jiang Yunyi no longer refused her advice.
After all, it is obviously much better to have a Holy Lord personally guide you than to figure it out alone, saving you decades of detours.
........
In the temple, after instructing Jiang Yunyi, she quickly arrived here.
The moment he entered the hall, he saw Ji Hongye kneeling there not far away, and she looked like she was vomiting blood.
"You should know why."
Lu Ningshuang walked past her, climbed the steps and sat on a high seat, with a low voice and a pair of cold pupils, without any warmth or mercy.
As long as Jiang Yunyi is involved, he will be extremely sensitive.
Lu Ningshuang did not let Ji Hongye come to the back hall, but she went there privately. Suddenly, the immortal pressure swept over her, as if a demonic mountain had fallen on her, making Ji Hongye's face pale.
When Lu Ningshuang controls a person's life and death, she uses not only power, but also powerful strength!
"If a disciple goes too far, he is willing to be punished."
Ji Hongye quickly knelt on the ground and did not dare to say anything.
Looking at Ji Hongye crawling in front of him, Lu Ningshuang hummed softly, and the sound was ethereal, reaching Ji Hongye's eardrums.
"I don't want something like this to happen again. I will go to Lenghan Waterfall on my own to receive my punishment. I am not allowed to take any pills and will be punished for seven days and six nights."
Ji Hongye did not leave, because death would not be far away if she left.
With her current injuries, she couldn't withstand the cold erosion of the cold waterfall, even if she didn't die.
She raised her head and called out: "Master..."
"Anything else?"
Ji Hongye gritted her teeth and suggested: "Master, my master has been focusing on cultivation and has obviously made up his mind. Since you want to leave, you can actually arrange it in the outer sect. As long as you have experienced suffering, you will be able to understand your master when you come back. With good intentions, I will no longer resist Master."
Lu Ningshuang was a little absent-minded. It was not until she heard Ji Hongye's suggestion that she slowly raised her eyes, with endless chill: "It's not your turn to dictate my affairs."
"Master, calm down, Hongye doesn't dare." Ji Hongye trembled, lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Lu Ningshuang.
Her master is her enemy, how can she tolerate other people's irresponsible remarks?
And Lu Ningshuang didn't understand her intention. She was obviously trying to fight for a chance of survival for herself, so she had the courage to give her advice.
However, Ji Hongye does her best to fulfill her duties on weekdays.
She said indifferently: "Recuperate first, then go and receive the punishment."
After Lu Ningshuang finished speaking, she brushed her sleeves and passed by her.
The slender and graceful figure left, leaving Ji Hongye kneeling there blankly, her face pale, and she did not recover for a long time.
Ji Hongye was still frightened, even after the master left, she still felt great pressure.
I have been practicing with Master since I was a child, but I have never seen Master get angry for someone.
This time, I have a long memory.
Ji Hongye breathed a sigh of relief. Although the master allowed her to recover from her injuries, the punishment was a foregone conclusion.
.......
A week passed in the blink of an eye. In addition to practicing in the house, Jiang Yunyi occasionally practiced in the courtyard and went to bed to rest at night.
Now Lu Ningshuang comes to the wedding room every night, and then sits at the desk and reads books.
As for Jiang Yunyi, he slept on the bed with his back to her, not disturbing each other.
Lu Ningshuang's current cultivation level has long been out of the scope of the mortal body, and she will not feel any fatigue, so sleeping or something depends entirely on her mood.
She will not feel hungry. Even so, Lu Ningshuang will still prepare three meals a day for Jiang Yunyi.
Although the taste is average, it is at least within the edible range.
"Lu Ningshuang, do you have something to say?"
At the dinner table, Lu Ningshuang had a cold temperament, and her cold face showed little emotion.
It stands to reason that Lu Ningshuang is not the kind of indecisive person, and she can say anything she wants to say simply, but Jiang Yunyi can sense that she has something to say, but she doesn't want to say it.
When Lu Ningshuang saw what he had pointed out, she also said directly: "Yun Yi, you stay at home and are not allowed to go down the mountain."
From the previous 'I'll talk about it later' to the decision made now.
Jiang Yunyi didn't understand why he didn't let his go down the mountain? It didn't seem to bother her.
"Lu Ningshuang, I don't remember that you like to imprison someone." Jiang Yunyi ate from the bowl, chewed slowly, looked at her and said slowly.
In recent days, Jiang Yunyi has been practicing at home, and he is not in a hurry to go down the mountain. After all, the sword control skills are not yet available.
As a result, Lu Ningshuang's words aroused rebellion in Jiang Yunyi's heart.
He didn't remember Lu Ningshuang being so possessive.
In this situation, Jiang Yunyi felt that possessiveness was very appropriate. It was clear that Lu Ningshuang was not interested in love, but she still wanted to control his destiny.
Lu Ningshuang picked up the chopsticks, put vegetables into the bowl for him, and said: "Yun Yi, I was with you five hundred years ago, and I will still be with you five hundred years later. But I don't want to go down the mountain."
Indeed, five hundred years ago, the two of them were always together and never separated. After his death, he never expected that Lu Ningshuang would bring him back to life.
Jiang Yunyi stretched out his bowl, did not refuse the food she brought over, and asked, "Why?"
Lu Ningshuang uttered one word coldly: "Annoying."
She doesn't like the hustle and bustle of the world and prefers tranquility.
Moreover, Lu Ningshuang didn't have much favorable impressions of the mortal world.
I just want to stay in a place to practice quietly, and quietly protect the people who can make a ripple in my heart.
"..." Jiang Yunyi thought she had some special reason, but she didn't expect it to be just that.
"So? It's not like you have to follow me. I can go down the mountain to practice by myself."
After all, he is also a genius, so naturally he does not need protection from others.
"If you want to experience it, you can go to Chuanxian Hall to pick up the mission. You don't need to go down the mountain."
Going down the mountain is a kind of experience and a long journey. I will not be protected by the sect. Whether I want to return to the sect is entirely up to me, so Lu Ningshuang refuses like this.
"My contribution points are enough, the mission is useless."
Seeing that the dissuasion was useless, Lu Ningshuang suppressed her chill and calmly took out a token and handed it to him: "Yun Yi, see for yourself."
Two lifelike dragons are engraved on the left and right sides of this token. The dragons hold their heads high and seem to be roaring. The two sword-shaped patterns on the back are lifelike.
The 'Holy Son' is depicted in the center.
'Tian Ling' is engraved on the back.
This is Jiang Yunyi's former imperial order, which symbolizes a person's identity and status. At the same time, there is always a formation, and the contribution points earned by the individual will be imprinted in the mind in the form of spiritual thoughts.
His contribution value still had many zeros, but when he saw a negative sign in front of it, the sect was owed a total of more than one billion. Jiang Yunyi coughed twice when he regained consciousness.
Lu Ningshuang stroked his back and lightly opened her lips: "Yun Yi, you can leave if you want, but the contribution you owe is more than one billion. Logically speaking, you are no longer the Holy Son, but a servant disciple of the outer sect, and you have no right to go down the mountain. .”
"You, I...how could I owe so much!?"
Jiang Yunyi put down the bowl and chopsticks with a look of disbelief.
I have never done anything else, let alone caused trouble, how could I owe the sect more than a billion in contribution value!
"In the five hundred years since your death, I have been working hard to preserve your seven souls and six souls. The ice coffin is worth five thousand a day, the incense is four thousand, and the other heavenly materials and earthly treasures have been replaced for five hundred years. .”
Lu Ningshuang said coldly: "If you insist on going down the mountain, you can't even take a step forward unless you repay your debt first."
Jiang Yunyi opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak.
He never imagined that when he came back from the dead, he would be heavily in debt!
If he had known this, he might as well not have lived.
Besides...it was you who resurrected me in the first place!
Jiang Yunyi complained in his heart, but did not say it out loud, because he believed that even if he said it, Lu Ningshuang would not pay attention to him.
"Yun Yi, you don't need to stay with me."
"Just because you are the Holy Master?"
"Um."
"..."
Tianling Holy Land is under her control. She doesn't have to pay it back if she stays with her, but leaving... is difficult.
After hearing these words, Jiang Yunyi fell silent.
In the end, he made the choice that ordinary people would choose, so he said: "I don't have to go down the mountain, but I still need to experience it, right?"
Lu Ningshuang nodded: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
"ah!"
Jiang Yunyi was shocked: "Why are you following me? Besides, you are the Holy Lord, how can you have free time?"
Lu Ningshuang maintained her aloofness and looked at him, with a strange light shining in her eyes, and said quietly: "I said yes, so it happened."
"But you clearly said you don't want to go down the mountain."
"I just said I don't want to, but for you, I do."
Whether intentional or not, Jiang Yunyi was caught off guard by the sudden words, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Ambiguity mixed in the air, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward.
He suddenly felt hot inside and looked away.
He pretended to ignore it, but in the end he couldn't help but peek at Lu Ningshuang, and found that this iceberg beauty was staring at him without blinking.
Jiang Yunyi moved his lips: "Really?"
Lu Ningshuang nodded slightly, her attitude unquestionable, her voice was as clear and sweet as ice cutting through snow: "Yes."
The wedding room immediately became extremely quiet.
Only his breathing and heartbeat could be heard clearly.
Jiang Yunyi suppressed the turmoil in his heart and continued to eat. Suddenly, he felt that the tasteless food became slightly more delicious.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Pour him a glass of water.
Beside the dinner table, Lu Ningshuang sat with a dignified and elegant posture.
Although she is wearing plain clothes, there is nothing out of place. She even looks more heroic than ordinary fairies.
