Chapter 38: Intercession
Just when Lin Xiaoyi thought that he had broken through the threshold of cultivation and ran back to Chi Yuefeng to tell others, the place where he was standing just now was next to the "stalagmite pillar" that fell. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
I don't know when, there is already a girl in a light green shirt, with cloud-like hair, a charming and delicate face, is the extremely beautiful facial features, and her clear eyes are gently looking at the "stalagmite pillar" divided into two under her feet at this moment.
She leaned down and stroked the cracked half of the stone pillar with her jade-like fingers, and a crack was actually cracked in the middle of the originally solid rock pillar, and it was this gap that split the stone pillar that had stood for 10,000 years in two.
She was stunned, and after a long time, she heard her sigh softly, and then slowly stood up.
She walked to the pavilion at the top of the mountain, looked at the direction where Lin Xiaoyi had just gone, and frowned slightly, as if she was preoccupied.
She didn't know if she was doing the right thing.
She just didn't want to see this little junior brother continue to torture herself like this, and watching him chop with his bare hands on this rock as hard as iron swelled up with an indescribable pity and sympathy in her heart.
What made her even more reluctant was that she always had a feeling for this little junior brother.
Why do you care so much about him?
On Chi Yue Peak, there is no disciple who makes her so obsessed, is she really a little fond of this little junior brother?
Thinking of this, the girl lowered her head slightly shyly, as if a crimson color had stained her cheeks.
But when she was contemplating, her eyes instantly stayed in the lush bamboo forest in the distance, and a trace of hesitation quickly passed in her heart, but she still pretended not to find anything, and still stood in place, and after a while, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Then, she didn't say anything, just took a gentle step and walked towards the road where Lin Xiaoyi went back just now, stepping on the soft bamboo leaves with her feet, and there didn't seem to be the slightest sound.
Not long after she walked a few steps away, and somehow, she suddenly stopped, as if she had made up her mind, she turned back at dusk, and did not see any of her actions, only to see a green light already flying out of her hand, breaking through the sky in the bamboo forest in the distance!
As far as the light could see, dozens of thick bamboos broke off from the middle and fell into one piece.
At this time, behind these fallen bamboos, there was a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe, a figure she was all too familiar with.
When she saw the person on the other side, the girl snorted slightly and said, "Master, you scared me!" β
This person is none other than the peak master of Chiyue Peak, Xuanye Dao Chief!
Daoist Xuanye smiled slightly, walked out of the bamboo forest, and said with a smile as he walked: "Yu'er, I haven't come to guide you in your cultivation for a long time, judging from the green silk immortal suo you drove just now, your cultivation has reached the fifth level of the 'Hongyuan' realm, 'two forgets', and the teacher is very happy for you!" β
Su Qiyu ran over, pulled Master's sleeve, and pouted: "Master, I'm no longer a little girl, do you think I'll be happy if I praise me a few words?" β
Daoist Xuanye smiled and tapped Su Qiyu's nose with his fingers, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Yes, yes, our Yu'er has grown up, it's time to leave the pavilion, so naturally I don't pay much attention to cultivation!" β
When Su Qiyu heard this, she was ashamed and anxious, threw away her master's sleeve, turned around, stomped her feet and said, "Master, you're making fun of me again!" β
Xuanye Dao Chang raised his head and smiled, put his hands behind his back, walked towards the center of the mountain, and said thoughtfully: "Sixteen years, sixteen years, Yu'er is already sixteen years old, time flies so fast, hehe, in a few years, it will be the age for you to talk about marriage-"
"Master, if you say it again, I'm going to be angry!" Su Qiyu walked to the side of the Xuanye Daoist with a slight annoyance, raised her fist and slapped Xuanye Daoist on the shoulder a few times.
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it," Xuanye Daoist smiled and stroked the long beard on his cheeks, and suddenly saw the "stalagmite pillar" split by Lin Xiaoyi just now, so he asked, "Is this where that kid practices external skills?" β
Su Qiyu glanced at the master, his eyes stayed on the split "stalagmite pillar", and said, "Yes, you look down on him again, then he is the only one who cultivates here!" β
Xuanye Dao Chang snorted in his nose, glanced at the 10,000-year-old rock that fell to the ground, and said: "With his cultivation, even if it takes another hundred years, he won't be able to split this stone pillar, and it's not that someone has shattered this stone pillar with the power of True Yuan in advance, so that this kid will mistakenly think that he has broken through the second level of external cultivation!" After saying this, Daoist Xuanye turned around and looked meaningfully at Su Qiyu, who he had always regarded as his daughter, and continued: "Do you think you can hide the eyes of your teacher?" β
Su Qiyu knew that she was unreasonable, lowered her head, bit her lip, and pretended not to say a word.
Xuanye Daoist smiled, didn't look at her, turned his head and looked at the two halves of the "stalagmite pillar" that fell to the ground, and then said lightly: "However, this kid still seems to be very persevering, there is no trace of true qi in his body, and he has been splitting on this stone pillar for two years," Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and after a while, he suddenly said meaningfully: "But this path of cultivation is not something that can be solved by diligence alone, and sometimes, it may be said that it depends on personal talent to a large extent!" β
When Su Qiyu heard this, she immediately raised her head and defended the little junior brother: "Master, don't blame me for being too talkative, if you hadn't deliberately embarrassed him, maybe his progress in cultivation would have been very fast." β
Daoist Xuanye looked at Su Qiyu's reaction, and only smiled faintly at her obvious complaint, then changed the topic and asked, "Yu'er, if I ask you something, you must answer me honestly." β
Su Qiyu looked at the master suspiciously, not knowing what unimaginable questions he would ask.
Daoist Xuanye suddenly stopped and said to her solemnly, "Are you a little fond of this kid!" β
Su Qiyu's delicate face flushed slightly, and a trace of trance flashed through her bright eyes, as if she was thinking about something, but she immediately realized her gaffe, and turned her head arrogantly to avoid Master Xuanye's inquiring gaze, and only after a long time did she lower her voice and said faintly: "Where does Master say, how could I be - I will like him?" Just--didn't I take him to heart? β
"In that case, why did you help him? What does the quality of his practice have to do with you? Daoist Xuanye continued his question.
"No...... No...... I didn't help him...... What is there to do with us? Su Qiyu said two words in a row, and she didn't seem to be able to clearly state what she meant, and she didn't know how to answer Master's question.
Looking at Su Qiyu's embarrassed and shy appearance, Daoist Xuanye seemed to smile a little helplessly, as if he had let go of the burden in his heart, and he said lightly: "So, even if this kid has been doing chores on Chiyue Peak all his life, you won't care, right?" β
Su Qiyu was very surprised why the master could say such a thing, but when she raised her clear and bright gaze and saw the imperceptible smile on the master's face, she understood that the master was testing her heart.
The little girl's hidden heart is the most elusive, Su Qiyu's secret that has been buried deep in her heart was suddenly told by the master, and she suddenly felt a kind of shyness in her heart, but there seemed to be some indescribable sweetness in her heart.
Su Qiyu turned around, not daring to look at her master, and wrapped her long hair around her slender and delicate fingers, trying to hide her inner uneasiness.
At this time, the Xuanye Daoist behind her let out a loud laugh, and after a while, she heard the master persuade her again: "Okay, okay, Yu'er, Master won't ask you, hehe, it seems that that kid is really not simple, and even our Yu'er will worry about him." β
When Su Qiyu heard this, she lowered her head, and felt even more ashamed.
I don't know what's going on, Daoist Xuanye seemed to sigh, and then said: "Alas, okay, I won't hide it from you as a teacher, two years later will be the day of the new Wufeng Sword Competition, I want to give him a good advice after that sword meeting, I hope he will not disappoint me in the future!" β
Su Qiyu suddenly turned around and looked at Master, her eyes were full of surprise, and she asked, "Master, is this true?" Would you like to teach him personally? β
Daoist Xuanye nodded affirmatively and slowly, but his eyes looked at the bamboo forest in the distance, his expression was thoughtful, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he remembered something else?
Su Qiyu didn't dare to ask more, and after half a ring, she saw that the master turned around again and said to Su Qiyu: "When did the master lie to you?" β
Su Qiyu smiled, like a flower with dew drops in the forest in the early morning, so she didn't care about what she was respectful of, revealing the innocence and cuteness that only a little girl has, she pulled up Master Xuanye's cuffs and said with a smile: "This is my good master!" β
Contrary to Su Qiyu's happiness, Xuanye Daoist seemed to remember something, but his face was solemn, looking at a bamboo forest in the distance, his eyes were empty, and after a long time, he heard him mutter: "Yu'er, do you really think that cultivating to the supreme Dao realm will really be a happy thing?" β
It's just that Daoist Xuanye's words were too vague, and even Su Qiyu, who was beside him, didn't seem to hear clearly, and was still immersed in the joy of her daughter's family alone.
At this moment, there was silence on the top of the mountain where the two were locatedβthe sunlight was shining through the sparse bamboo leaves.
The breeze blows in the bamboo forest from time to time, changing the hue of the light and shadow in the forest.
