"You actually came out of seclusion! Last time Tingxue... ahem, I heard from Master Yan that you were practicing in seclusion. It seemed that you were practicing a magical skill at an important point. I didn't dare to come to you for fear of affecting your practice. ." Zu An's words were true. As a bunch of newlyweds, he and Chu Chuyan had been separated for too long.
Sensing the sincerity in his tone, Yan Xuehen's face turned pale: "Originally, I had to stay in seclusion for a while, but the master suddenly came back and told me that it would be better to go into seclusion alone to experience it in the world of mortals and find demons by the way. The saints who taught me competed with each other, so I came out."
Zu An was surprised and happy: "Yan... the temple master is back? Is she injured or something?"
Although he had guessed that she would leave without saying goodbye, and his cultivation was more than enough to protect himself, he was still worried about whether she would encounter any accidents. Now that he knew that Yan Xuehen was safe, his heart was completely relieved.
Chu Chuyan glanced at him strangely, wondering why he cared so much about his master: "Master's cultivation is so high, how could anything happen to him?"
】
"That's good, that's good." Zu An breathed a sigh of relief, then realized that his question was a bit strange, and hurriedly added, "I have fought side by side with Guanzhu Yan before, and we are considered friends. She was in the Monster Clan before. She left suddenly, but I was worried that something would happen to her."
"Master and I mentioned it briefly, but you said you are friends?" Chu Chuyan looked strange. She knew the master's temperament best. He was an existence even more icy than an iceberg. His whole person had a kind of indifference that was far from the world. In fact, It was unimaginable that such a person would become friends with Zaun.
Moreover, they are friends. Doesn’t Zu An count as my elder?
Zu An's expression froze: "She hasn't told you about it?"
It seems that Yan Xuehen still can't face the relationship between the two, and subconsciously avoids it.
Chu Chuyan shook her head slightly: "She didn't mention that we have a good relationship, but since you can ask her to bring me the gift, I guess we should have a good relationship."
"Gift?" Zu An was stunned. In that situation, he had no nerve to ask Yan Xuehen to bring gifts to other women. Isn't this just adding salt to the wound?
Chu Chuyan lowered her head and looked at the ribbon on her waist, her jade cheeks seemed to be flushed by the color on it: "I like this Hun Tianling very much, thank you."
Only then did Zu An react and smiled: "As long as you like it."
In his heart, he sighed melancholy. What did Yan Xueghen mean? Did he want to say goodbye to himself completely?
"By the way, there is indeed something a little strange about Master's return this time." Chu Chuyan said suddenly. "What's weird?" Zu An's head jumped.
"Sometimes she would sit alone and suddenly be in a daze, with a silly smile on her face and then anger and so on. I was also worried that there was something wrong with her cultivation in Taishang Wangqingpian. When I asked her, she said no," Chu Chuyan said with a beautiful eyebrow. He frowned, and then looked at Zu An in confusion, "You have been with her for so long, do you know the reason?"
Everyone has a gossip mentality, and Chu Chuyan is no exception. She really wants to know what happened to the master, and she still can't tell me.
Zu An looked a little embarrassed. Of course he knew the reason, but it was a pity that he couldn't tell him directly.
All he could say was: "Maybe she encountered some immortal beings in an unknown place, and it probably touched her a lot."
"Immortal?" Chu Youzhao, who was holding his sister's arm, looked curious and immediately let go to pull Zuan, "Good brother-in-law, tell me quickly."
Seeing Chu Youzhao's behavior, Chu Chuyan frowned slightly. The Chu family had spent a lot of effort to educate Youzhao like a real heir apparent. Why did he look like his former daughter now?
Seeing Murong Qinghe's ears pricked up, Zu An couldn't help but laugh. After all, none of the people present were outsiders. The relationship between Murong Qinghe and Youzhao could be considered half insider, so he roughly summarized the things in the unknown land. After talking about it, of course it was relatively simple. As for the specific details, he could communicate with Chu Chuyan in private. Knowing too much about the other two little girls would bring trouble to them.
But this was enough to make several girls exclaim again and again, and even Chu Chuyan was a little moved. For some reason, after the master came back this time, she felt as if she was a different person, and she was much stranger to him. She even felt that, It was as if the master was afraid of seeing him.
Therefore, the master only briefly talked to her about the situation in the unknown land. She knew very little about it. Now when she heard Zu An talk about it, her beautiful eyes were filled with brilliance.
However, as keen as she was, she also heard that he was hiding some details, but she did not doubt it. She thought that Murong Qinghe and You Zhao were nearby, and she could ask him in private later.
At this time, Zu An suddenly realized: "By the way, you said you would compete with the devil's saint this time?"
Chu Chuyan nodded slightly: "Yes, the master and Demon Sect Leader Yun are getting better and better. The disciples of the two sects are going to hold several battles between good and evil. However, the latest agreement was originally made one or two years later. I don't know why the master suddenly If you change your mind, I’m not sure whether the Demon Cult will agree with it or not.”
Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she felt a little hasty when she left the mountain this time, as if the master was driving her away on purpose.
Zu An looked at her carefully and felt the fluctuations in her energy, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Are you already at the ninth level?"
Chu Chuyan hummed: "Master spent a lot of effort to teach me, and Bai Yujing also thinks highly of me. He provides me with all kinds of genius treasures, so I improve quickly. If I come out naturally, there is a high chance Someone who can break through the Grandmaster."
This is also what puzzles her the most. According to her progress, she should be able to break through the Grandmaster after she naturally exits the level. By then, she will be more confident in dealing with the Demon Saint.
But she had always admired and admired her master, and knew that she was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, so this move must have a purpose. In addition, she really missed Zu An, so she agreed to go down the mountain.
"Sister is so awesome!" Chu Youzhao's eyes were full of admiration, thinking that sister is indeed my idol since childhood.
Murong Qinghe also looked shocked. How old is she? Less than twenty, right? He is already at the ninth level, and he can be considered a genius, but compared to Chu Chuyan, he can't even keep up with him.
It is not that the younger generation in the Monster Clan is higher than this, but the so-called younger generation of the Monster Clan can be regarded as middle-aged uncles or even old men in the human race, not to mention that most of the Monster Clan rely on blood to inherit their strength.
At this time, Chu Chuyan's expression suddenly changed, and she took Zu An's hand to check: "What's wrong with you? Why are you not as good as when we were separated? Could it be that you were injured and your cultivation level..."
After all, this world depends on cultivation. If he really became an ordinary person without cultivation, how sad he would be.
For a moment, she even thought that she had to work harder to become stronger so that she could protect him properly.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that the skill has some mutations, and it's difficult for others to detect fluctuations in vitality." Zu An comforted him, and with a gentle wave, he cut a falling leaf not far away into two pieces.
"That's good," Chu Chuyan breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly she thought of something and said with a strange expression, "You almost changed the subject. Where did you spend the night last night?"
The hairs on Zu An's whole body stood up. Although she knew her relationship with Zheng Dan, there was a saying in this scene that was right. If you confess, you will be put in a lenient jail, and if you resist, you will be punished and go home to celebrate the New Year.
Fortunately, he had already thought of his words at this time: "I was investigating the Sang family last night. Sang Hong was assassinated and disappeared. Speaking of which, I also bear some responsibility..."
Chu Youzhao and Murong Qinghe both heard their family mention the dispute in the court, and they all offered words of comfort, saying that it was not his fault.
At this time, a strange look flashed in Chu Chuyan's eyes: "Sang Hong? I know where he is."
