In the night, Ji Fan lowered his head, and his face could not be seen clearly in the dim light, but his breath could be heard intermittently, as if he was trying his best to control the trembling in his heart.

A few people nearby noticed his strange appearance, for unknown reasons, they all felt strange, Zhang Qing'er carried him lightly, he was much clearer, but he was still angry.

"The results of the martial arts competition have been announced, and a total of 112 disciples from all academies of the entire sect have won, and the finals will officially start tomorrow. ”

The next words stunned everyone, because according to the usual rules, the screening competition would last for three days before it ended.

Ye Hong paused for a moment, and then said calmly: "However, based on the uneven strength of the matching disciples in the screening competition, resulting in many injured disciples, the sect has decided to give the participating disciples a chance to give up. ”

The air quieted down, and several people looked at Ji Fan, because Ye Hong fell on him after the words fell, and it was obvious that this was only for him.

Ji Fan hung his head and was silent, with a sneer hidden at the corner of his mouth, stunned, as if he hadn't heard Ye Hong's words, or was used to Ye Hong's indifferent treatment, he didn't feel that this was said for him, and ignored it.

"Fan'er. ”

And this state lasted for a while, and with a 'Fan'er', the angry Ji Fan instantly returned to the prototype.

His heart trembled, and he didn't react at the first time, and the perennial frozen pool of death in his heart was like a stone suddenly falling, rippling layer upon layer.

How many years have it been, and this is the first time he has heard Ye Hong call him like this, which makes his breath disordered and difficult to calm down.

Raised his head a little suffocated, but what he saw was an unusually calm old face, perhaps the perennial frowning made the traces of time deep in the brow, making him in a trance.

stared at it in a daze for a long time, and he didn't come back to his senses until Ye Lin coughed lightly, and this cough also pulled him back to reality.

I saw that the slightly cloudy eyes were as deep as the nine cold pools, rippling with a trace of coldness, without any softness and emotion, and it seemed that he was not interested in it at all, but he was forced to do nothing, as if he had just heard the sound of 'mortal'...... Just a delusion.

The lake in his heart, which was about to boil, cooled down in an instant. There was a desolation in his heart, and he suddenly felt a little ironic, he was still looking forward to the day when Ye Hong's attitude towards him would change.

That's it......

Forget it......

......

"The disciple is reluctant to give up. Ji Fan spoke calmly, and his voice was so calm that Yue Qing and the others listened to it with a cool strangeness.

"Hmm. Ye Hong seemed to have guessed it, nodded nonchalantly, and then took his eyes off him and explained: "Lang'er, wait until you teach him the Spirit Broken Palm." ”

Several people looked at each other when they heard this, and they all had a strange stunnedness, this kind of performance was a question about Ye Hong's decision.

The so-called Spirit Breaking Palm is just a four-grade technique, this level of magic, according to the rules of their Tianqing Academy, when the cultivation reaches the sixth stage of the Spiritual Qi Realm, it will be taught, and at present, with the strength of the eighth stage of Ji Fan's Spiritual Qi Realm, it is only right to teach the seven-grade magic Spiritual Light Finger!

The atmosphere was a little strange, but no one dared to question it.

When Ji Fan heard his words, his pupils twitched again, and his expression became more indifferent, but he didn't particularly care, a person was disappointed in a person once, and it was just a disappointment, but a person was often disappointed in a person, so it was not called disappointment, but despair!

This emotion is not limited to any emotion!

"Yes, master. ”

Ye Lang was stunned for some reason, and when he heard Ye Hong's words, he arched his hand back to his senses.

"In the final, you have to be careful. Ye Hong looked at the faces lightly, but skipped Ji Fan, and finally gave a brief explanation, turned around and walked to the wooden house. Ji Fan raised his eyelids, looked directly at his back, and saw that he had returned to the hut and closed the door.

Only then did everyone understand why Ji Fan had such a huge reaction just now, about Ye Hong's treatment of him and others, this kind of differential treatment, a kind of naked and undisguised differential treatment that has nothing to do with motivation and talent!

Fan Ming and the others looked at Ji Fan in a complicated way, and when they saw him go from calm, to complicated, and then to calm and stunned, looking at each other and not knowing what to do, Zhang Qing'er's pretty face darkened, and she opened her mouth as if she wanted to comfort, but was stopped by Fan Ming.

"Let's go, senior brother will teach you to break the palm. ”

In the end, Ye Lang came over, smiled peacefully, and hooked Ji Fan's shoulder, like a good big brother.

There was a chill from the palm of the hand through the clothes, but there was a burst of warmth in Ji Fan's heart, Zhang Qing'er jumped over with a smile, and grabbed his arm on the other side, Ji Fan turned his head and saw the cute face that showed tiger teeth and the big eyes that bent into a crescent moon.

Several people left together, but the atmosphere before and after was two differences, the front was laughing and lively, and the back was silent, Ye Lin looked at Ji Fan's dejected back and sighed lightly, Ji Fan's performance just now felt more like he was resentful because he was not reprimanded, but in fact, he also knew that the fundamental reason for Ji Fan's anger was Ye Hong's differential treatment, so he didn't blame it, but he felt a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Yue Qing suddenly came over and hooked his shoulder, the two looked at each other and smiled, the relationship between the seven of them was as good as ever.

Tianqing Courtyard returned to dead silence, and after they left, it seemed so silent that there was not the slightest sound or life when the leaves fell.

"Crunch..."

In a moment, the door of the hut slowly opened, and the sound was extremely harsh, and a figure could be seen standing there, the silhouette of the shadow as if it had completely melted into the darkness, very faint. Only the eyes flickered faintly, straight and hooked.

............

“... Aren't you going to rest?"

Halfway down, Ji Fan paused, because he saw that Fan Ming, Li Qi, and Zhang Qing'er were all following each other, and they had no intention of leaving.

"It's boring. Fan Ming spread his hands and smiled freely, but Zhang Qing'er was yawning again and again, he glanced at Ji Fan, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless and embarrassed.

Seeing the thoughts of several people, Ji Fan felt astringent in his heart, and looked at the gentle faces with smiles in a daze, and suddenly there seemed to be something surging in his heart, like a fish in his throat, making it difficult for him to open his mouth, but it was difficult to open his mouth.

forcibly suppressed that sour feeling, but his eyes were still a lot redder, he was not in a high mood, he barely pulled out an ugly smile, pursed his lips and said: "I'm fine, senior brother, you all go back, there will be a final tomorrow." ”

Several people didn't move, and in the end, Ye Lang said: "Let's go back, it's enough for Xiaofan to have me here." ”

His voice was flat and indifferent, but there was no doubt, Ye Lin and the others looked at each other, and finally left one after another.

......

The cold wind blew in the winter night, the cold air fell to the earth, condensed into a frost, the moonlight was hazy, and a few black clouds wandered in the night, with nowhere to go.

The two stood side by side, looking at the outlines of the mountains and rivers sleeping in the darkness, hazy, Ye Lang did not say anything to comfort, and Ji Fan did not ask Ye Lang why the master treated him like this, and no one broke this Qingning.

But in his heart, an illusory ball of light rose and fell on the calm lake with a hint of coldness, and it was full of the figures of Ye Hong from childhood to adulthood, some scolding, some indifference, and some resolute.

He hesitated, cherished, and struggled, but in the end, the light still fell into the icy cold lake, rippling layer upon layer.

It continued to sink and finally fell into the dark corners that time could not reach.

In the outside world, his expression is calm, his eyes are deep and bright, it seems that people are a little impenetrable, and his temperament seems to be completely different from before, not salty, not light, no joy or sorrow, that kind of feeling is called maturity.

If it weren't for the coldness of the commitment but always in exchange, who would be willing to give up this kind of attachment ruthlessly, after all, the most touching person in the world belongs to family affection, even if this kind of family affection is not related by blood.

Ye Lang is calm and tranquil, he has never been disturbed, comfort is better than quiet, there are some things, only if you think about it thoroughly will you look down.

"Let's go, brother. ”

Until finally Ji Fan spoke by himself, Ye Lang looked at it and nodded.

On Yin Mountain, Ji Fan's movements were fierce, opening and closing, and the aura of his palm was scattered in the air, Ye Lang stood aside with his hands in his hands, and there was a complex flicker in Qingwei's eyes, Ji Fan seemed to be practicing the spirit breaking palm, but it seemed to be venting the resentment in his heart.

He didn't stop either, because Ji Fan needed to vent.

The Spirit Breaking Palm is only a four-grade technique, and it is not complicated to cultivate, just remember a few running lines, Ye Lang was pointing out on the side, and Ji Fan quickly mastered it.

"Thank you, brother. ”

"Don't be too reluctant tomorrow. Ye Lang explained, and then the two went down the mountain together.

Back in Tianqing Courtyard, Ji Fan's eyes stayed on the tile house, passing by, his steps slowed down, his calm pupils jumped, strode back to the house, and slowly closed the door, and what closed it seemed to be his cold heart......

In the hut, Ji Fan sat there in a daze, thinking about Ye Hong's indifferent expression, he finally stopped hiding it, his face changed uncertainly, the more he thought about it, the more restless he became, and finally shook his head fiercely, and then crossed his legs and began to cultivate boring again.
