Zheng Zhizhi stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the rolling mountains, his heart full of helplessness and loss. She thought it was only a matter of time before she took over as the leader, but she didn't expect that senior sister Ding Ting would object so strongly. Zheng Zhizhi felt that he was trapped in a dead knot and could not break through no matter how hard he tried.
Master Bai Yishu walked up to Zheng Zhizhi and patted her shoulder gently. He understood Zheng Zhizhi's mood at the moment and knew how heavy his decision was for her.
"Zhizhi, I know your desire for the position of leader, but now we can't fight against Ding Ting. We need more time to prepare so that more people can understand your abilities and background." Bai Yishu's voice There was a hint of helplessness in it.
Zheng Zhizhi lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes. She understood her master's helplessness, but this decision made her even worse. She deeply loves her master, but she cannot express it to him in public, let alone marry the matchmaker.
At this moment, the female disciples came over, all of them angry and with serious expressions.
"Master, how can you treat her like this! She is just a mortal, why can she be equal to you?" A female disciple asked excitedly.
"Yes, Master, we don't agree with her, she is not worthy to be our leader!" Another female disciple also joined in.
Bai Yishu frowned. He didn't want to argue with the female disciples, but he also didn't want Zheng Zhizhi to be hurt.
"Everyone, Zheng Zhizhi is not an ordinary person. She has extraordinary talents and talents. We have witnessed her growth and progress with our own eyes, and we cannot be biased against her." Bai Yishu tried to persuade the female disciples.
However, the female disciples did not buy it. They believed that Zheng Zhizhi was able to achieve what he is today only because of luck and the favoritism of his master.
Bai Yishu looked at the female disciples helplessly, knowing in his heart that no matter how hard he tried to persuade them, it would be useless. He could only put the marriage on hold for the time being and wait for the right time.
Zheng Zhizhi clenched her fists tightly. She felt the helplessness of her master and the opposition of the female disciples. She understands her current situation and can only temporarily put aside her dream of being the leader.
"Master, I understand. I will wait until the time comes." Zheng Zhizhi's voice was full of firmness and determination.
Bai Yishu looked at Zheng Zhizhi, his heart filled with admiration and love for her. He was deeply aware of Zheng Zhizhi's ability and potential, but the time was not yet ripe and he could not let her suffer any more harm.
"Okay, let's put this matter aside for the time being and wait until three months later to hold the competition for the position of leader again. At that time, I will fully support you and let more people see your strength and talent." Bai Yishu's The voice was full of firmness and determination.
Zheng Zhizhi smiled slightly. She knew that the master was thinking about her. She decided to put her emotions aside for the time being and prepare for the next game wholeheartedly.
Three months was both a pressure and an opportunity for her. She vowed that she would use her strength to prove her worth again and win everyone's recognition.
On the cliff, Zheng Zhizhi and Bai Yishu looked at each other and smiled. The relationship between them became deeper at this moment. They both knew that this predicament was only temporary. They would work together and the day when they would come together would definitely come.
However, three months later, she failed to become the leader as she wished.
It's been like this for about half a year.
"Oh! Why are you still not pregnant?"
Zheng Zhizhi looked at her face in the mirror. She was twenty-seven years old and still not pregnant.
Bai Yishu sighed: "Oh, maybe I'm too tired."
Zheng Zhizhi said distressedly: "Then let me rub Master's shoulders, okay?"
Bai Yishu nodded in agreement.
Ever since, every lunch break, the two of them would put their hands on Bai Yishu's shoulders and gently rub his acupuncture points to make him feel refreshed.
But that night, Zheng Zhizhi had a dream.
…
She saw her and Bai Yishu sleeping in each other's arms.
She heard Bai Yishu call her name gently, his voice full of magnetism, which made her sink.
"It's."
"Um?"
Zheng Zhizhi opened his eyes and felt that his head was extremely dizzy. She rubbed her brows and found that the night outside the window was pitch black. It was already late at night!
Zheng Zhizhi exclaimed: "Oops! I overslept. Master should be anxious, right?"
She quickly put on her shoes and got up, washed up, and hurried back to the main hall.
As soon as he opened the door, he hit a wall of flesh - it was Bai Yishu!
Zheng Zhizhi was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Master, Master? Why are you standing at the door of my room?"
Bai Yishu smiled: "You're here."
"Um."
Bai Yishu held her cold hand and pulled her into the house.
Zheng Zhizhi followed him into the room and saw that it was empty and quiet without any furnishings.
She asked doubtfully: "Master, why is there nothing here?"
Bai Yishu pointed to the closet and motioned for her to open it.
Zheng Zhizhi did as he was told and opened the wooden wardrobe.
There are many robes hanging in the wardrobe, all in blue-gray color. The fabrics of the clothes are all made of top-quality silk, embroidered with simple patterns, and look simple and elegant.
However, there are many clothes piled at the bottom of the closet.
Although the clothes were old, they were neatly folded and ironed smoothly and cleanly, as if they had been taken out to dry frequently.
Zheng Zhizhi asked in surprise: "Master, are these the clothes you have worn before?"
Bai Yishu nodded lightly.
"So Master, you still have it."
Zheng Zhizhi looked through these clothes with joy and found that they were very well preserved.
Bai Yishu approached the edge of the wardrobe and took out an ancient and thick notebook from his sleeve.
"This is something I wrote when I was young. I give it to you."
"Master, did you write this when you were young?" Zheng Zhizhi was extremely surprised. He took the note and opened a page, only to see that it was filled with densely written words.
"Master, these words are very unfamiliar. Have you written them before?"
Bai Yishu shook his head: "These are things I recorded when I was practicing cultivation. Because I had forgotten them for a long time, I kept them under the suitcase. Now that you love reading these books, I will simply give them to you."
"Thank you, Master." Zheng Zhizhi was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
These words record her master's growth experience from childhood to adulthood. She knew that these words were Master's precious memories.
Bai Yishu reached out to wipe away the moisture from the corners of Zheng Zhizhi's eyes.
"Don't cry." He smiled.
"Yes." Zheng Zhizhi choked with tears and agreed.
At this time, Bai Yishu suddenly leaned over and hugged her. Zheng Zhizhi was stunned.
Bai Yishu whispered: "Little girl, don't be afraid. From now on, Master will protect you."
This sentence was like a promise, making Zheng Zhizhi's eyes turn red instantly.
Zheng Zhizhi fell in his arms and cried: "Master, you are so kind... I am so happy."
Bai Yishu stroked her hair: "Silly child."
"Master..."
Zheng Zhizhi leaned in Bai Yishu's arms, smelling the familiar smell. Master's chest is broad and strong, with a warm body temperature. This sense of solidity made Zheng Zhizhi feel extremely at ease.
Bai Yishu said: "It's getting late, go and have a rest soon."
"Well, what about you, Master?"
"I'm going to rest today too."
Zheng Zhizhi hesitated: "Can I accompany Master?"
Bai Yishu scratched the tip of her nose lovingly: "Silly girl. I am your master. Are you still afraid that the master will be lost?"
"I'm not afraid you'll lose it."
Bai Yishu pinched her cheek and turned to leave.
His back gradually faded away. Zheng Zhizhi suddenly shouted: "Master."
"Huh?" Bai Yishu paused and turned around.
His gaze fell on her through the hazy night, his eyes shining brightly.
Zheng Zhizhi bit his lip and said slowly: "Master, I love you."
Bai Yishu was stunned.
Her eyes were firm and unafraid.
Her eyes told him: she loved him and she was willing to pay any price.
Bai Yishu's heartstrings trembled violently.
"Master..." She called him again.
Bai Yishu couldn't refuse after all. He walked towards her, took her hand, and lay on the bed together.
…
The next day, Zheng Zhizhi got up very late. She got up in confusion, but found that her pillow was empty.
Bai Yishu has left!
Zheng Zhizhi was stunned for a while before he reacted. She immediately opened the quilt and jumped out of bed, finishing dressing and dressing up.
She hurried out of the room to find someone.
"Master! Master?!"
She didn't see Bai Yishu until she found the kitchen.
Zheng Zhizhi's heart was beating fast, and he quickly grabbed the maid who was passing by and asked, "Excuse me, where is Lord Bai Xian?"
"Bai Xianzun left yesterday. Before leaving, I asked my servant to tell you that he went to visit some old friends. So you don't have to worry."
"Visiting an old friend?" Zheng Zhizhi was confused. Why did the master suddenly go out to visit?
Zheng Zhizhi thought for a while and suddenly had an idea. Could it be that Master left the mountain specifically for her to visit an old acquaintance?
Zheng Zhizhi felt sweet in his heart and raised the corners of his mouth.
Bai Xianzun is really a good man.
The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and she couldn't help but laugh secretly.
At this time, another palace maid said: "The Immortal Lord said he would come back later today, so you don't have to wait."
"Oh, okay. I'm going back to the room first."
Zheng Zhizhi left the dining room happily.
At the same time, a certain valley.
A woman sits alone on the top of a cliff, staring at the sea of clouds.
She has a thin figure, pale skin, and long black hair, revealing a delicate profile.
Her expression is calm, but if you look closely, you can see that her eyes are complicated.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.
The woman looked up and saw an older man walking towards her.
The man was dressed in a simple white shirt, with a handsome face and a hint of sadness between his brows. When he saw the woman, guilt filled his eyes.
"You're finally here." The woman sighed with a melancholy tone, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"I'm sorry." The man lowered his eyes, "I didn't expect things to turn out like this..."
"It was you who asked me to help that girl in the first place. Now that she is dead, it was also you who caused her death." The woman said, "So don't blame anyone. It's your own fault."
"..." The man was speechless and asked softly after a while, "You hate me?"
The woman closed her eyes, remained silent for a moment, and then opened them again.
Her eyes were as clear as spring water, calm and calm.
She said: "We are each our own masters."
The two were silent.
After a long time, the woman asked, "Why did you come to see me today?"
"I hope you can give up your plan to kill Zheng Zhizhi." The man looked at her seriously.
The woman sneered contemptuously. She raised her head, looked up at him proudly, and said coldly, "Why?"
"I know your obsession with me, so I don't dare to ask you to let go. But I hope you can understand that our enemies are both powerful, and I can't lose to those two people." The man's eyes were firm, "I I just want to make a last-ditch effort. If I fail, I will give up revenge. If I win by chance, I hope you can quit."
The woman's indifferent eyes gradually became frosty, and she mocked: "Who do you think you are, trying to persuade me to change my ways? You are wishful thinking!"
"I know this is too difficult." The man smiled bitterly, "I just try my best."
After saying this, he seemed to be relieved.
Then, he took a deep breath and said, "It's time for me to go."
"Don't leave!"
As soon as he took a step forward, the woman blocked his way.
She said angrily: "Since you like Zheng Zhizhi so much, you might as well marry her!"
The man was stunned and said: "No..."
The woman interrupted him and said sternly: "I don't care, I want you to marry her! I want to see how you can ensure that you and Zheng Zhizhi can live a happy life!"
The man frowned, looking a little displeased, and said solemnly: "I have already made my decision. Even if it is a mistake, it cannot change my choice."
"Humph, you don't understand at all!" the woman said angrily, "The hatred between us has been entangled for thousands of years. How can it be changed just because of a mere woman? You are simply stupid!"
After hearing this, the man couldn't help but laugh. He said: "You don't understand the hatred between us, so you call me stupid. We don't need to explain our affairs to anyone."
"You——" The woman Su Ziyan was so angry that she almost fainted.
She pointed at the man: "Since you want to go against me, then let's fight each other!"
…
In the evening, Bai Yishu came to Yaolu.
An old servant came up to meet him, bowed and said: "Immortal Lord, you are finally here."
Where is senior brother? "Bai Yishu asked.
The old servant replied respectfully: "Your Highness, the princess, came to you noisily after waking up from her nap today. She is practicing her sword now."
"I see." Bai Yishu suddenly realized, "Then please take me in to see her."
The old servant smiled: "Please follow me."
Bai Yishu followed the old servant to a small wooden house in the backyard.
There are flowers, plants and trees planted outside the house, birds and insects chirping, and the scenery is pleasant.
Bai Yishu pushed the door open and entered.
He saw a girl standing by the window, her back to him, dancing with a sword.
"Junior sister!"
This woman is Bai Yishu's other junior sister, Miao Si.
Bai Yishu walked in quickly and called.
When the girl heard this, she turned around and smiled at Bai Yishu: "Senior brother."
"Junior sister!" Bai Yishu looked at her in surprise.
The girl is wearing a long blue dress, made of soft material, embroidered with pink butterflies, and tied with a green fringe girdle around her waist, which outlines her slender willow waist.
She has a beautiful appearance, her skin is as fair as snow, and her eyes are as bright as stars.
This is a graceful young girl. It is amazing that there is such a pure, refined, bright and dazzling beauty in the world!
Bai Yishu was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and murmured, "Is this really my silly girl?"
"You are stupid! Your whole family is stupid!" Miao Si glared at him, "I'm not stupid!"
With that said, she reached out and grabbed Bai Yishu, pulling him out.
Bai Yishu was confused.
"Junior sister, why are you pulling me?"
Miao Si covered his mouth and threatened in a low voice: "Don't yell!"
Bai Yishu blinked and nodded obediently: "Yeah!"
Miaosi let go of him.
Bai Yishu touched his lips, feeling a little warm from her cover, and his heart beat faster.
At this time, he noticed the wine bottle on the table. He picked it up and took a sip. The taste was mellow and fragrant.
"Junior sister, where did you buy this wine? It's really delicious."
His words made Miao Si laugh out loud: "I brewed it!"
Bai Yishu was surprised.
