After introducing several senior brothers and sisters, Xiaoyao looked at the black tiger in the distance again, and the black tiger also stared back with a ferocious expression. Although its face was that of a wild beast, Ma En could also feel the black tiger's eyes. The hatred is so strong that it almost overflows.
It can also be seen from the fight during their "practice" just now that the relationship between Xiaoyao's disciples and this tiger is not very harmonious, otherwise the chains used by Yu Weijie to restrain it can be tied directly to its body without actually Pricking the flesh with hooks.
Judging from the situation just now, if it could really knock down Zhong Ruixue, it would definitely tear her throat into pieces without hesitation.
"This is Ji Minru, the youngest daughter of the head of the Hollow Sect." Xiaoyao said with the same expression as introducing the disciples just now, "The body of the black tiger she was imprisoned in was once her favorite pet, and it was also the one who killed me. Murderer of wives and children.”
These sudden words made Ma En a little surprised. Not only him, but also the other three disciples were quite surprised by Xiaoyao's "confession". This matter is almost taboo in Xiaoyao Sect, and no one is allowed to discuss it. Master has not mentioned it again for many years.
None of them expected that the master would talk to the disciple in front of him about this matter with such a calm expression.
"Is this your revenge?" Sensing that Xiaoyao wanted to discuss the matter, Ma En took the initiative to ask him.
Xiaoyao looked like he was recalling the past:
"Yes, this is my revenge.
"You know, I was only thirty-seven years old back then, and I was just a golden elixir monk. But at that time, I had nothing else to ask for, because I had already found my true love when I became a disciple. After only two years in the master's school, I fell in love with the master's daughter.
"She was the person I was destined to meet, so I withdrew from the mainstream spiritual practice world early, hid with her and lived a peaceful but lively happy life, while concentrating on practicing slowly, until this evil beast broke into Entered our home.
"It brutally killed my seven-year-old daughter, eleven-year-old son, and my wife who was about to break through to the golden elixir.
“But you know what’s the most ridiculous thing when you think about it now?
"I never thought about taking revenge on Ji Minru. To be honest, I didn't dare at all. Her father is a very respected Nascent Soul monk. I had heard of his reputation before that. The old gentleman also told me Very admired.
"I just want to put it simply, but that's the problem.
"Ji Minru loves her pets very much."
Having said this, Xiaoyao glanced at the black tiger with a dull expression:
"Now she can stay with it forever.
"But back then, she just rejected my offer to avenge my family and offered me a generous compensation. To be honest, I was not unswayed before the compensation. After all, it was just a beast, so The answer I gave her at that time was not acceptance or rejection, but that I needed some time to think about it again.
"But after returning to the empty house, I tossed and turned, but still couldn't make up my mind to make a decision. Finally, I went back to find her, and told her that I still insisted on killing her favorite pet, and her The answer was still no.
"I think maybe it was because the answer I was thinking about gave her hope, which made her mistakenly believe that there was still a way to keep her pet. She directly threw the generous apology in front of me, and then pretended that I had agreed. Lie Ban took Black Tiger back to the sect.
"Her attitude towards me has always been pretty good, but she's just not willing to let her pet die.
"And it was impossible for me to break into that heavily guarded place, so I went to the Heavenly Court, hoping that they could seek justice for me, but at that time they just dealt with me casually. I could tell that they were serious about my case. I am very impatient. This kind of case involving monsters and Nascent Soul monks is inherently troublesome.
"And they still have more urgent problems to deal with. The demonic cultivators back then were far more active than in previous centuries.
"So in the end, I spent half a year changing my name and surname, and finally got into the hollow door. And while Ji Minru was out, I quietly found the black tiger, and started using the cruelest way I could imagine.
Torture the beast.
"Now I have to admit that I was actually blinded by hatred at that time, which also made me make a bad mistake. At that time, I was too obsessed with torturing Black Tiger and did not kill him immediately.
"What happened next started to slowly turn crazy. Ji Minru came back at the wrong time by coincidence, and then she saw me hurting her favorite pet, so she went crazy and killed me. come over.
"She is a disciple of a famous sect, and the magic weapon in her hand is ten times that of mine, so she cut off my left arm with a ruthless hand, and I also used her concern for the black tiger to blind her eyes, and then hurriedly escaped from the hollow door.
"But the damage I caused to her did not hurt her soul. After finding the Yuanying monk, she healed her eyes easily, and I became a criminal who broke into the Hollow Sect. I was wanted by the entire cultivation world and became a criminal. He became an evil cultivator in their eyes.
"Actually, if this matter were judged by heaven, I would not have reached this stage. In fact, Ji Minru and I should both be beaten back to the foundation and thrown into the dungeon for decades, but her father He is a Yuanying monk.
"He knew how to deceive the inspections of the Heavenly Court, lied to them, and fabricated the scene as if I had come to assassinate his daughter, saving his useless daughter's life, because normally she would be thrown into the dungeon and the wasteland. It is impossible for people who have lost their cultivation to break through the Nascent Soul.
"And Ji Minru was his favorite heir, so he was a little careful.
"But you know what's the worst thing that can happen?"
Ma En said with some confusion:
"What?"
Xiaoyao shook his head amusedly:
"Back then, I was too young and too weak, so I didn't kill the black tiger immediately when I attacked it. And after Ji Minru came back, I had to use it to get out of the hollow door alive, and I only cut it open in a hurry at the last moment. Its throat failed to crush its soul.
"So Ji Minru saved it after spending huge amounts of resources.
"After that, it was naturally impossible for me to find an opportunity for revenge. Moreover, because I was slandered as an evil cultivator and was hunted down by decent cultivators and heavenly soldiers, I could only remain anonymous again and kill people in the next ten years or so. I met many good people who found me, and I knew that if I was caught by them, I would never have the chance to turn around again, and I gradually got closer and closer to the real evil cultivator.
"Finally, Ji Minru slowly relaxed her guard as time went by, and I seized this opportunity. After more than ten years of ups and downs, I am no longer as naive as I was back then. When I met her, I instantly understood her. Black Tiger's palm beat her to death, and also beat Ji Minru's body to pieces, but her soul escaped into Black Tiger's body before I could take action.
"At this time, Ji Minru's father appeared. I could feel that he was filled with grief and anger and wanted to kill me directly. However, there were other monks who followed him, so he could only hand me over to heaven. Feel down.
"How do you think I survived?"
Ma En asked curiously:
"Because you broke through to the Nascent Soul?"
Xiaoyao smiled:
"That's why I said you are a Federation citizen.
"No, I had actually given up everything since I had already taken revenge. Although I failed to kill Ji Minru, her fate was enough in my opinion at the time. According to the standards of heaven, I had done everything. .
"So I was actually ready to accept my fate, but the Heavenly Court noticed my previous record of seeking justice from them, and immediately realized that something seemed a little fishy, and then launched an investigation into the whole matter.
"Then Ji Minru and her father were both sent to the sky prison, and I was also sent to the dungeon for three years. But their trial against me was actually quite fair. Of course, this was because they didn't know what I actually did. What.
"And on the eve of leaving the world of cultivation, I took the opportunity to find her again.
"Because in the eyes of heaven she has paid for her crimes, but I don't think she has really suffered enough."
Ma En said with some surprise:
「
So in the end, the person who upholds justice for you is actually the organization in the world of cultivation called Heavenly Court. "
Xiaoyao nodded:
"Yes, this is what I want you to realize before you practice. Your master is not actually a good person in the secular sense, and the morality of the practice world must not have any problems in your eyes. If you think about other practitioners Maybe he will insist on revenge, but when he finally attacks Heihu, he won't want to kill Ji Minru as easily as I do.
"They will want to make her pay for what she has done, but they will not directly ask her to repay with her life. After all, she only protected the monster that killed my family and did not actually kill anyone. .
"On the contrary, the lives of several innocent good people were stained on my body."
Ma En asked:
"So you actually think what Heaven is doing is right?"
Xiaoyao replied:
"Yes, they did the right thing."
Ma En asked:
"Then why do you still..."
Xiaoyao smiled and said:
"Why are you still trying to break something that I also agree with? This goes back to the problem I told you in the first place...
"Why didn't they return the aura to you?"
Ma En asked with some confusion:
"What's the meaning?"
Xiaoyao said:
"The purpose of what I say is that you can clearly realize what Heavenly Court is. They are completely different rulers from your Federation here, and they are not even completely equivalent to the rulers here.
"They are good people like Shen Xiao as you understand, but I am actually the guy who stands on the opposite side of the right path.
"In the decades before I left the dungeon, I actually appreciated and agreed with Heavenly Court's approach. I even joined Heavenly Court. It was because of this that I was able to learn a lot of inside stories, but in the end I still governed them morally. The ways of the world raised objections.
"Because we have some principled differences, but you don't need to know these yet.
"Okay, now that I have met your junior brothers and sisters, it's time to come with me to do the most basic physical training."
After explaining the origins of the three brothers and Black Tiger, Xiaoyao took Ma En and walked towards the distant practice area.
After Xiaoyao and Ma En disappeared, Yu Weijie and Zhong Ruixue looked at each other for a few times. They both felt that it was strange for the master to bring Ma En here to say these things, but they did not dare to say anything to the master while standing in the mist. view.
However, junior sister Guan Yi didn't seem to be completely aware of the strangeness, and asked directly to her senior brother and sister:
"So he is our senior brother now, but didn't he just kill senior brother Du?"
Yu Weijie replied quite tactfully:
"Since Master has accepted Ma En as his disciple, it means that his killing of Senior Brother Du is nothing at all. I think Senior Brother Du may have done some evil deeds behind his back that embarrassed Master..."
Zhong Ruixue interrupted him rather disdainfully:
"Du Jin is already dead, so don't blame him. Master naturally has his own ideas when doing things, but we as disciples don't have to explain anything to Master. This has nothing to do with us."
Guan Yi still said with some worry:
"But why did Master accept Ma En as his disciple?"
"Of course there is a reason." These words made the three people tremble, because this was exactly the voice of their master, and then the floating clouds slowly condensed into a completely new image in front of them. body.
Xiaoyao stood in front of them and asked:
"What do you think of this new senior brother?"
Yu Weijie said with a natural expression:
"I think there must be a reason for Master to accept him as a disciple, but I feel that it is very difficult for these mortals in the Desolate Realm to really start practicing. I see that other disciples in the Desolate Realm you accept seem to encounter all kinds of problems. Such questions."
Zhong Ruixue also nodded and agreed:
"And some of them are also very smart, but they are inherently inferior to us when it comes to practice. I'm worried that they will make the same mistakes as other junior brothers and sisters in the desolate world."
Guan Yi was still in a state of being frightened by Xiaoyao and didn't know what to say.
Xiaoyao smiled and said:
"Yes, it is almost impossible for mortals in the desolate world to embark on the path of cultivation.
"Even the geniuses of the Desolate Realm who have the chance to achieve Nascent Soul will find it difficult to break through to the Golden Core here, and this is already the end of them. If they want to move forward, they must follow their master back to the world of cultivation, unless... …
"He is a peerless genius with more than just that."
Several other people looked surprised, and Yu Weijie asked worriedly:
"So Senior Brother Ma En is..."
Xiaoyao replied:
"That's right, this Ma En has the body of a heretic demon."
These words made the other three cultivators fall into shock. The heretic demon body can be regarded as one of the best physiques in the world of cultivation. However, it is not so famous because there are few techniques suitable for cultivation.
But what they practice is Xiaoyao Tianmo Kung.
This means that Ma En is likely to catch a glimpse of the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul before them, and they all know that the master's resources in the Desolate World only allow one disciple to break through to the Nascent Soul.
Originally, after Du Jin's death, both Yu Weijie and Zhong Ruixue were a little bit ready to make a move, thinking that they would replace Du Jin and achieve the position of Nascent Soul, but now it seems that they are all stepping stones for this new senior brother.
And they will have to work hard to teach this competitor for a long time to come.
Xiaoyao looked at them and smiled, then took out three small boxes:
"This is the elixir you will use for your next practice. If you don't practice well...
"The opportunity to become enlightened is about to be taken away."
