Chapter 17: Favoritism

It's just October, and the weather has cooled down, and this year it seems to be colder than usual, and before there are many fallen leaves, I'm already wearing thick clothes.

In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since Red Lotus came to the Jixuan Sect, and during this month, Red Lotus has almost always stayed in the inner gate and rarely goes out, she doesn't want to see anyone, because this place has not left her any good memories.

Red Lotus used this month to wander around the library pavilion of the inner gate, which not every disciple of the Jixuan Sect could enter, such as those disciples of the outer sect who had entered the gate two years ago.

There are a lot of exercises in the library pavilion, but there are very few exercises suitable for the cultivation of mutant spiritual roots, and Red Lotus has only found a few exercises that are slightly suitable for his temporary cultivation, which are for physical training, as well as for strengthening internal force, or for improving speed, and one of them is the only one that Red Lotus thinks can be regarded as a serious eight exercises, the technique of thousands of wind blades, this spell is just like its name, extremely destructive, and can turn the strong wind generated by Red Lotus itself into thousands of wind blades, and then attack the enemy.

In addition to these exercises obtained in the Jixuan Sect's library now, Red Lotus also has the exercises that he got in the secret territory of the city, and that exercise focuses on speed, that is, he integrates himself into the wind, and he can fly without a sword, and the speed is also like the wind, Red Lotus has often fought against demon beasts in the past two years, and has also encountered many monks with high cultivation and bad intentions, and it is by relying on an exercise to escape, and with the improvement of cultivation, continue to practice this exercise, the speed will also increase, and the speed is not known how many times faster than the average monk flying。 Therefore, Honglian still attaches great importance to this exercise.

During these days in the inner gate, the sect master has always favored the red lotus, taking the best pills, and living in the inner gate residence with the strongest aura, the red lotus has never experienced this kind of treatment in her previous life, which makes her see the difference between the inner disciples and the outer disciples more clearly, no matter when, the strength is the most reliable.

On this day, Honglian was sitting in the room practicing the exercises to strengthen the body, when she heard the transmission of the sect master.

"Come on. ”

Honglian hurriedly stood up, and with one arrow step, the person had disappeared in place.

The sect master was very appreciative of the fact that the red lotus could quickly reach his eyes every time, and he was afraid that among the children of this generation, there was no one faster than her.

"Red Lotus, there are two things that the teacher called you this time. ”

"Why is the master?" asked Honglian respectfully.

"One thing...... Did you take those pills that the teacher gave you in vain, how could it be that when the teacher first met you, you had already cultivated to the late stage of the fourth layer of the Qi cultivation period, but now you have not seen the slightest growth. The sect master frowned slightly, and asked with some concern.

"Master, you don't dislike the apprentice's cultivation speed is too slow, don't you fight?" Honglian asked deliberately, in fact, she also knew that the master didn't mean this, she just wanted to divert some attention, she didn't want to break through, but for some reason, the spiritual power in her body in the past two years has never been able to be full, the dantian is like a bottomless pit, no matter how she condenses the spiritual power, it is only a little worse.

"Look at what you said, how can a teacher dislike you, I am concerned about your cultivation. The sect master put on a childlike look.

Red Lotus rolled her eyes at him.

The sect master is also very helpless, this little apprentice in front of him, he really attaches great importance to it, he is reluctant to say that he is reluctant to scold, he can only persuade him softly, he has never treated any apprentice like this, but Honglian is not on his way at all, like a little adult, he has some ideas of his own. I knew that when she begged to worship herself as a teacher, she didn't show so excitement, and she should have held the shelf.

"Hey......" The sect master couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.

If the other disciples knew about the current actions of the two of them and the thoughts of the sect master, they would definitely go crazy with jealousy, how could a small disciple actually embarrass the sect master, how dare she......

Although Honglian has a good impression of this master now, she doesn't want to tell him that her dantian has black spots, even if he is her own master, Honglian has not completely handed over her heart, she has already tasted a lesson in her previous life, and she will not trust anyone in this life.

"I have encountered a little problem in my cultivation, master don't worry, maybe after a while, I will have a breakthrough. Honglian casually found a reason to prevaricate this matter.

"What's the problem, do you need help with the teacher?" at this time, the sect master was interested and asked.

Since he entered the sect as a little apprentice, he has never asked himself any questions, normal children will encounter all kinds of questions in their cultivation, but the person who wants to answer the questions most does not come to ask him, which makes the sect master feel that he does not have the pride of being a master.

Hearing Honglian say that she had encountered problems in her cultivation, the sect master didn't even know whether she was anxious or happy.

In Honglian's eyes, this sect master, who was cold and powerful on the outside, was actually an immature old naughty boy on his heart, more than four hundred years old, and he would still show all kinds of children's expressions.

In fact, Honglian didn't know that the sect master would only release his heart like this when he was with her, just because this was the last disciple Wei Liaohua received, and it was also the only disciple who decided to teach all the exercises in his life the most, so he had no reservations, maybe Honglian should be glad that when she came to Jixuan Sect, the first person she met was Wei Liaohua.

However, Red Lotus's answer in the next moment made the sect master's heart cool down instantly.

"No, no, I can fix it. Red Lotus refused quite directly.

The sect master was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly, looked at the red lotus, and said:

"How's the preparation for the outer door big competition this time?"

"I'm already an inner disciple, do I still need to participate in the big competition of the outer gate?"

Honglian actually knew that she was the last to enter the sect, if it weren't for the sect master accepting her as a personal disciple, she would only be an outer disciple now, and the inner disciples were all foundation building period monks except for the personal disciples, otherwise they would not be eligible to enter the inner gate. In the previous life, because of his poor qualifications, the red lotus was still doing some miscellaneous work at the beginning, and only after entering the fifth layer of the qi training period was he accepted by the outer gate, and then it took more than forty years to build the foundation successfully, and then he entered the inner gate, and the red lotus at that time was already in his sixties.

Over the years, she has experienced too much sadness, if it weren't for Baishu City, she would probably have given up and entered the inner door to help him, but in the end she ended up with such a miserable result. If the Red Lotus in the previous life was too dependent on others and believed in feelings too much, then the Red Lotus in this life decided to use her own strength to get out of this cage, and she would not fall in love with anyone again.

Honglian is also looking forward to this big competition in the outer gate, she also wants to know what her current combat strength is, and what will be the result of meeting a monk of the same realm, but she still jokes in her mouth, I don't know why, she just wants to look at this master's anxious appearance, maybe this is a manifestation of her extreme lack of love.

"You...... Of course you have to participate, don't think that you don't compete with others because you have good qualifications, you will stagnate, how can immortal cultivators be so proud......"

The sect master babbled a lot, and the red lotus naturally listened to the left ear and the right ear bubbled, and then gave the sect master a smile and said:

"Yes, the master is right, the disciples follow the teachings. ”

The sect master was stunned by her sudden change of attitude, and she didn't ease up for a long time, the little apprentice smiled, it was like a dead wood in spring, and it was extremely splendid, which made this sect master powerless at all.

"Hey, you must listen to what the teacher says, and if you encounter any difficulties in the future, come and ask the teacher, you go down first. Regarding Honglian's respectful attitude, Wei Liaohua really had no other way, and he couldn't bear to punish her, so he had to let her leave.

Honglian smiled, she didn't expect to have a beautiful face, and it was very convenient to do things. Red Lotus saluted the sect master again before leaving.
