"Master..." Ji Beichen called out to Master Xuhai reluctantly. He raised his eyes to look at Master Xuhai who was still far away, and his eyes were red again.
People often drop all their defenses in front of their loved ones and become vulnerable and powerless. Ji Beichen was still a calm and calm man just now, but the moment he looked at Zhenren Xuhai, he seemed to have transformed back into the young boy he was ten years ago.
Master Xuhai was also reluctant to give up, but now was not the time for master and apprentice to reminisce. He waved his hands cruelly and said: "I'm very well. If you are in Cangxu, you can come and see me at any time. Go quickly, don't let you go." Uncle Master is impatient to wait."
"Disciple understands, master, take care." It was hard to disobey the master's orders, so Ji Beichen could only obey, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and went out.
Ji Beichen followed Lu Shenji back to Qingtan Peak, and the two of them were speechless all the way. Lu Shenji knew that the matter of Shenjian Pavilion was not something he could interfere with. He was afraid that Ji Beichen would be embarrassed, so he did not talk to him. Ji Beichen was still thinking about meeting his master today.
Today, Ji Beichen saw the head master with his own eyes. It was already a gift from God. How could he be greedy and ask for more.
Moreover, the master's physical body has not yet matured since he was discharged from the army, and his current state is very weak. He cannot even be called a human being, he is just a spirit body. If they are seen by powerful cultivators, their spiritual energy will be taken away. Hiding in the Divine Sword Pavilion is the safest way.
"Hey..." Ji Beichen couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. Now that the master is suffering, what can he do for the master as a direct disciple of Zhenren Xuhai?
The two of them walked to the gate of Qingtan Peak without knowing it. Yan Mingxin and Yan Mingxiu had been waiting here for a long time.
Yan Ming saw that Ji Beichen's expression was not good, and he said displeasedly: "Lu Shenji, why are you talking about Xiaochen again? This child has suffered a lot. After finally returning home, you said righteously to him again, If you don’t feel sorry for me, I feel sorry for you!”
Lu Shenji felt aggrieved and pursed his lips without saying anything. However, Ji Beichen felt embarrassed at first: "Master Yan, Master Lu didn't say a word to me."
Yan Mingxin glanced at Lu Shenji, knowing that she had wrongly blamed Lu Shenji, but she didn't want to apologize in front of the junior.
Yan Mingxiu was watching the excitement from the side. Seeing his eldest sister in trouble, she froze there for a moment and started fighting.
"Sister, you really know how to joke. It was my brother-in-law who asked me to bring Beichen back. My brother-in-law didn't have time to hurt him, so how could he scold him for no reason?" Yan Mingxiu said as he stepped forward and put his arms around Ji Beichen familiarly. shoulders, leading back to his courtyard.
Naturally, Yan Mingxiu didn't just drink. He mainly wanted to trick Ji Beichen. He urgently wanted to know what Xi Yue, the master of Shenjian Pavilion, said to Ji Beichen!
The Divine Sword Pavilion is a forbidden area of the Cangxu Sect. Xi Yue, the leader of Lin Yuan Peak of the Cangxu Sect, was ordered to guard the Divine Sword Pavilion ten years ago, but no one can enter it yet.
Ji Beichen went to the Divine Sword Pavilion alone, but he was not trapped outside the barrier and successfully entered the pavilion. This was something that had never happened before.
You must know that when Yan Yueli came to see her mother Xi Yue, she could only stay far outside the Divine Sword Pavilion.
Therefore, when Ji Beichen entered the Divine Sword Pavilion this time, he must have something important to handle. I think something unusual might happen in this world of cultivation...
Ji Beichen saw Yan Mingxiu's intention at a glance and quickly refused: "Brother Yan, please stop prying into my words. If Master Lu hears it, he will definitely expel you from the school. It will be Master Yan who will be sad."
Seeing that this trick was not effective, Yan Mingxiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: After joining the world, Ji Beichen was not as easy to deceive as before. Speaking of which, there is also the contribution of Yan Yueli's "little witch", which is really a trick of fate.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, do you just want to see the new treasure I brought back? You used to like it very much, but this time there are a lot of novelties!" Yan Mingxiu invited again, but he didn't believe that Ji Beichen's preferences had changed. .
Ji Beichen was very excited by what he said. Not to mention the powerful spells, the spiritual beasts he raised were enough to open his eyes, not to mention the novel magical weapons from all over the world.
When he mentioned spirit beasts, he thought of the three-tailed red fox in the Trial Valley. Yan Yueli really liked spirit foxes. If he got a high-quality nine-tailed white fox in the future...
"You brat! What are you thinking about? Are you going or not? The house has been packed by Yan Nianxin. If you don't want to live with me, Xin'er's room is also available." Yan Mingxiu slapped Ji Beichen on the back. , and you can still get distracted while talking to him. This kid really has something on his mind.
Yan Mingxiu's mouth didn't stop all the way, and Ji Beichen was so annoyed that he had to agree: "Go, go, of course. I have something to say to you before I leave."
When Yan Mingxiu heard this, his expression changed slightly. He had just captured this kid, and not even a day later, he was about to leave. Could it be related to the secret of Shenjian Pavilion?
"Stop guessing, I left to find the five-color demon pill." Ji Beichen saw through Yan Mingxiu's thoughts at a glance, and his strong curiosity caused countless troubles.
Yan Mingxiu is now over 30 years old, but he is still as young as ever, and his temperament of meddling in world affairs still has not subsided. No wonder Master Lu had a headache for Master Yan during the time she was in seclusion.
There are few people in the world who don't know about the magical treasure Yan Mingxiu, but he has never heard of the five-color demon elixir. He then raised his eyebrows and asked: "What is the five-color demon elixir? How can the demon elixir have five colors?"
It was rare for Ji Beichen to see that Yan Mingxiu didn't understand something, so he gradually smiled and explained to him: "Some time ago, Shen Qingxi found an ancient elixir recipe in the Trial Valley. The elixir, mixed with various auxiliary materials for refining, will eventually produce a five-color demon elixir. This medicinal elixir can recast the Dantian and restore my damaged sword heart."
Yan Mingxiu's eyes rolled slightly, and he had doubts in his heart: Ancient elixirs can only be found but cannot be obtained. How could a little girl Shen Qingxi get it so easily? Could it be that that boy Wang Yuanting did good deeds without leaving his name?
"Brother Wang is really troublesome. Tell me, is it better for him or me?" After Yan Ming finished speaking, he deliberately patted Ji Beichen's shoulder with a smile on his face.
"Of course it's all good." Ji Beichen grinned after saying that, ignored Yan Mingxiu's trick, and pushed the door into the small courtyard behind the mountain.
Seeing him looking so happy, Yan Mingxiu felt happy in his heart: This guy may have been depressed for too long. He probably encountered something good today, and he felt much less depressed.
He strode into the small courtyard and sat directly on the bamboo chair in the courtyard. He poured a cup of tea leisurely, drank it slowly and said: "Don't brag. Wang Yuanting helped you because of my sake. The two of us People are no less friendly than you."
Ji Beichen nodded and sat across from Yan Mingxiu. He had to admit this, but when he saw Yan Mingxiu's embarrassed look, he wanted to rub his anger: "I know that Wang Yuanting didn't know about your friendship before. , He can help me because, Yan Yueli..."
"Woman, woman, woman again! It seems that you drank too little last night!" Yan Mingxiu argued angrily, ran to the backyard and brought two large jars of fine wine, and called to Ji Beichen: "Come on, come on! Come with me again Drink!"
Ji Beichen knew he was wrong and couldn't refuse, so he took a jar of wine and followed him into the house. Yesterday Yan Mingxiu stayed with him all night, and today it was him who stayed with Yan Mingxiu. He had no complaints: "Come just come, whoever is afraid of whom!"
Halfway through the wine, I suddenly heard a female disciple calling softly from outside the courtyard: "Senior Brother Yan, I made some peach cakes today and brought them here for you to try!"
"Looking for you?" Ji Beichen subconsciously thought that this "Senior Brother Yan" was Yan Mingxiu.
"Harm! I'm looking for a new kid. I don't like old cows eating young grass!" Yan Mingxiu waved his hands repeatedly. He would not accept this "peach blossom" randomly. Besides, although he and Ji Beichen were both disciples of Lu Shenji in the Cangxu Sect, , but no one dares to call him "senior brother".
"Nian Xin is so popular?" Ji Beichen raised his eyebrows slightly. He had never noticed this before.
"Yes! He has the same style as I did back then! Who wouldn't be confused by the tall ponytail boy with broad shoulders and narrow waist? It's just that Rui'er has known you since he was a child. If he met my new son first, he wouldn't be as good as you. It's okay!" Yan Mingxiu looked confident. Although his words were exaggerated, Yan Nianxin was indeed outstanding among the disciples of the Cangxu Sect.
Ji Beichen rolled his eyes and couldn't help teasing: "I don't believe it, I want to tell Yan Yan! You wear a pink shirt when you go down the mountain on weekdays. You don't want to taint them, but you can't control those women who are in love with you. Use all your strength Move forward."
This Cangxu sect has many female disciples who are secretly committed to Yan Mingxiu, not to mention those young girls in Wuyou Town who are in love.
Yan Mingxiu could only cough lightly and scolded in a low voice: "Nian Xin is not here, please leave quickly."
"Senior Yan! You are polite..." The female disciple was so frightened that her branches trembled, she hurriedly saluted, grabbed the food box and ran away.
Yan Mingxiu had sobered up for the most part and returned to the topic again: "Look, she ran away in fear. Don't worry about it! Let me ask you, are you setting off tomorrow? Can Brother Wang follow?"
"This..." Ji Beichen hesitated again and again, his eyes evasive, and finally nodded. He was indeed leaving for Canglan Sea tomorrow, but Wang Yuanting had decided on the day after tomorrow.
Wang Yuanting and Shen Qingxi were disciples of the Yan Yue Sect. If Yan Wugui knew that they were secretly helping him, he might punish them. So Ji Beichen wanted to secretly go to the Canglan Sea alone to continue looking for the water attribute demon pill, not wanting to cause any trouble to the two of them.
"Really?" Yan Mingxiu frowned slightly, not quite believing what Ji Beichen said. He waited for a long time without seeing Ji Beichen's reply, and became even more certain that Ji Beichen would be on his way alone tomorrow.
"You, you, the worst thing in your life is lying." Yan Mingxiu murmured while looking at the sake in the glass. He drank the wine in one gulp, rolled his eyes, and thought of a compromise.
Early the next morning, Ji Beichen took advantage of Yan Mingxiu's drunkenness before he woke up. He quietly walked out of the room, carried the luggage he had packed last night, and was ready to set off again.
"Good morning, senior brother Ji!" Yan Nianxin walked into the small courtyard neatly dressed and greeted Ji Beichen face to face.
"Good morning, Junior Brother Yan. I made a promise to your adoptive father last night. I will go down the mountain right now. Say hello to Junior Uncle Lu on your behalf."
"Where is Senior Brother Ji going?" Yan Nianxin looked like he was there, but he always had to ask clearly, otherwise he would not be able to explain to his adoptive father Yan Mingxiu.
"Cang Lan Hai." Ji Beichen said three words briefly, then he held his hand and ran away.
When Yan Nianxin heard this, he immediately understood the reason why Yan Mingxiu asked him to return to the small courtyard in the back mountain early in the morning.
He no longer hesitated, strode into the courtyard and stood in front of Ji Beichen. He raised his hands and asked, "Xin'er is eighteen this year. Senior Brother Ji, please take me with you when we go out this time!"
"Okay." Ji Beichen could only nod. He knew that Yan Mingxiu didn't trust him to go alone, so he agreed since he proposed it, so as not to worry about it.
