In the early morning, the mountain wind that had ravaged Zixia Peak for a whole night finally stopped, and the morning sun gradually emerged from the mountains, covering this mountain with a layer of golden glow! The clouds and white air waves were churning between the mountains, and the strange rocks were craggy, and occasionally the cranes stood on it, looking up to the sky and singing, looking at it from a distance, it was really like a fairyland.

A lonely courtyard has also become extraordinarily warm because of the warmth of the sun. Looking closely, this lonely courtyard is dilapidated, except for the two wings on the east side, the rest of the rooms are already dirty, like ruins, and even the main hall of the hall is a dilapidated scene.

At this time, in this small courtyard, there was already a figure, busy cleaning up the messy scene in the courtyard. Suddenly, the wooden door of the small courtyard was pushed open with a creak, and a person entered in response to the call, and after the person entered, he couldn't help frowning after seeing the scene in the courtyard.

The people in the courtyard obviously recognized the person, but they saw him pointing at the person with wide eyes, and his mouth was endless, "You, you, what are you?"

However, the visitor was not very cold to the people in the courtyard, just glanced at him lightly, then moved away, and then walked to the only room in the courtyard with an open door. The furnishings of this room are very simple, with only a table, a bed, a chair and a desk for reading and writing. And at this time, on the only small bed, there was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy lying down, looking at that immature and slightly resolute face, who was Ye Xiaotian who had just returned to the Heavenly Sword Gate yesterday?

Ye Xiaotian slept on the bed, only feeling a burst of fluffy on his face, but with a little itchy feeling. He subconsciously fiddled with it, but unexpectedly touched something soft, which frightened him to wake up directly from his deep sleep.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a snow-white thing dangling in front of me, and a pair of black eyes staring at me, so unexpected. Isn't it the foodie, who is Xiaoxue?

"Xiaoxue, aren't you ......" Ye Xiaotian hugged Xiaoxue away and was about to ask something, but suddenly he seemed to realize something, and immediately stopped and sat up. The beautiful figure bathed in the morning light, and the world-splendor face, aren't they the Shi'er sisters who I think about day and night?

Seeing Ye Xiaotian wake up, Ye Shi'er hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Xiaotian, you're awake!"

"Hmm!" Ye Xiaotian responded, and after a pause, he suddenly asked, "Sister Shi'er, why are you back......?"

"Hmph, what else are you talking about!" Ye Shi'er rolled her eyes, "If I don't come back, are you going to stay here?" Ye Xiaotian didn't know why, but Ye Shi'er walked over and sat on the bed. Ye Xiaotian looked at this beautiful face in front of him, and he didn't feel in a trance, and he was slapped on the head coldly, and he let out an "ouch" in pain, but he saw Ye Shi'er glaring at him again, "You stupid, I said I was going to send you back yesterday, but you don't want it, now it's okay, I was tossed here by that nerd of the seventh senior brother!"

When Ye Xiaotian heard this, he couldn't help but secretly think in his heart, "That Senior Brother Qin Hai is obviously handsome and has an extraordinary temperament, how can he become a fool in the mouth of Sister Shi'er!" He didn't dare to refute more, but just said: "Sister Shi'er, this place is very good, and besides, Senior Brother treats me very well......"

"What's good!" Ye Shi'er interrupted Ye Xiaotian with an angry voice, she glared at Zhou Yan, who seemed to be eavesdropping in the courtyard, and continued: "This small courtyard is not a good place to cultivate, and moreover, it also allowed you to set up such a lazy guy as a senior brother!"

"No!" Ye Xiaotian immediately retorted, "Senior Brother Zhou is a very hardworking person, he just ......"

"What diligence, since you are diligent, this yard is still so messy?"

"That's because ......" Ye Xiaotian wanted to say something more, but Ye Shi'er knocked on his head again and interrupted him. Then she stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, Xiaotian, Sister Shi'er won't let you stay here, I'll go and tell Master later, and beg him to accept you as a personal disciple!"

"Disciple himself?" he ...... Will you agree?" Ye Xiaotian remembered that Senior Brother Qin Hai had told him that Sister Shi'er was now the personal disciple of the first seat, so her master, isn't it the first seat? Thinking of this, he thought of the short and fat middle-aged man in Dexing Hall who was extremely serious and angry with himself, that person, would he really accept himself?

"Yes!" Ye Shi'er looked confident, "Master, although he is a strict old man, he also loves me the most, so he will generally agree to any request I have!"

"Oh, that's it!" Ye Xiaotian replied in a low voice, somehow, after hearing Ye Shi'er's affirmative reply, he couldn't help but be happy, in his mind, he couldn't help but recall last night, Senior Brother Zhou Yan's helpless smile and the two of them were eating, he was concerned from the bottom of his heart! If he left like this, he should be lonely again!

Ye Shi'er didn't notice his loss, she picked up Xiaoxue, who was put aside by Ye Xiaotian, and said to Ye Xiaotian: "Without further ado, I'll take you to intercede with the master now, and let him accept you as a personal disciple!"

"Sister Shi'er, I'...... I still won't go!" Ye Xiaotian avoided Ye Shi'er to hold his hand and said softly.

"Why?"

"I want to stay here and cultivate!"

"What, this small courtyard is ......" Hearing this, Ye Shi'er couldn't help but be surprised, she looked at Ye Xiaotian with a deep look of annoyance. This is a common expression she used to lose her temper with Ye Xiaotian before, if before, seeing her expression, Ye Xiaotian would probably retreat due to timidity, but this time, he looked into Ye Shi'er's eyes, and said slowly but firmly: "Sister Shi'er, I want to stay here, with Senior Brother Zhou Yan, and wait for the master to come back!" That person, the person he has never met, should be his own master! Ye Xiaotian thought in his heart.

"Xiaotian, ...... you" Ye Shi'er stared at Ye Xiaotian, wanting to say something, but looking at his determined eyes, she didn't say it after all. Speaking of which, this should be the first time Xiao Tian rebelled against himself, the little guy who used to only obey his own orders now has his own opinions, it seems that in the past few years, he has also grown a lot!

Ye Xiaotian looked at Sister Shi'er's unhappy face, and he didn't feel surprised, but he wouldn't change the decision in his heart, so he had to say again: "Sister Shi'er, you also know! In the past, I was very difficult to condense because of my poor qualifications. Now, it has been measured that my spiritual root talent is also very low, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to cultivate the Heavenly Cultivation Technique in the future, so ah, where I stay to cultivate, it will be the same!" In fact, he still had a sentence that he hadn't said, that is, he had successfully built a foundation and become an inner disciple of Zixia Peak. So, he no longer had to worry about being sent back down the mountain at the age of sixteen. For him, being able to stay by Sister Shi'er's side all the time is nothing else to ask for. As for the speed of cultivating the Heavenly Technique in the future, he didn't care much about it.

"However, I heard that Senior Uncle Tianhe has been missing for a long time, and if you stay here, who will guide you in your cultivation?" Ye Shi'er pondered for a while, but said with a frown.

"It doesn't matter, Senior Brother Zhou's realm is much higher than mine, he can guide me in cultivation first!" Ye Xiaotian said with a smile.

"Hmph, that lazy man, how can I guide you well, even if I want to guide, I will guide you, which round will you get him?" Ye Shi'er didn't have a good breath.

Hearing this, Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and then he was happy, "Sister Shi'er, so you said, did you agree?" For him, it is undoubtedly the happiest to let Sister Shi'er, who cares most in his heart, agree.

However, Ye Shi'er glared at him, and said quietly: "You have said everything to this point, I don't agree to you or not, it doesn't seem to matter much!" In this regard, Ye Xiaotian had to smile and didn't dare to say anything more.

The hut ushered in its brief silence, and then it was broken by Ye Shi'er again, "Xiaotian, I won't pursue this matter for the time being, but there are some things, you have to explain it to me clearly!" Saying that, Ye Shi'er sat down again.

However, Ye Xiaotian didn't know why, and asked blankly, "What are the things?"

"Hmph, what else do you dare to ask? Let me ask you, why did you suddenly leave that day three years ago? Also, what have you experienced in the past few years? You have to tell me all these things clearly!" Ye Shi'er's silver teeth were bouncing, it seemed that her anger at the moment was not ordinary.

Taken by her majesty, Ye Xiaotian had no choice but to restrain his mind and speak slowly. Speaking of which, it was only after he saw Ye Shi'er on Tongtian Peak that he learned from Ye Shi'er that he had been in that strange forest for three years, and he was extremely shocked when he heard this.

Staring at the quilt on his knees, Ye Xiaotian slowly told his experience in the past three years. From the time he left the Purple Cloud Residence, to the time he returned to the Heavenly Sword Gate for selection. Of course, he also has something to hide. Like the "black shadow" that he thought was the elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, he only said that he was a master outside the world, and the "Soul Sutra" he cultivated was said by him to be a strange exercise, anyway, the black shadow told him to keep it secret, and he didn't say a word. In addition, he didn't say that he had ever arrived in Blackwater City, only that he had cultivated for three years, and after successfully building the foundation, he was released by the master of the world. And the spirit beast Xiaoxue was also known to him in that cultivation place. He was originally not good at lying, he almost talked nonsense, maybe there were some places where he didn't know what he was talking about, but that's it, Ye Shi'er seemed to believe it!

She didn't ask anything more, but said angrily: "Why didn't you tell Sister Shi'er when you left at that time, I thought you had an accident, and you went out to find it for a month, and you even caused Senior Brother Qin and them to be with me!"

Ye Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, and then there was a burst of joy in his heart, but he also covered it up well, "Sister Shi'er, at that time, Brother Qingshan said that if you were known, you would definitely not allow us to go down the mountain, so I didn't tell you at that time!"

"Hmph, what does he know, he will come up with some bad ideas all day long!" Ye Shi'er said angrily. It's just that she secretly muttered in her heart, if she knew at the time, she really wouldn't let them go down the mountain, she really couldn't stop it, she was likely to go down the mountain with them.

"Hmm, Xiaotian, you said that you succeeded in building the foundation with your brother and them, but why did you come back and not see your brother?" Ye Shi'er stroked the long hair that drooped in front of her eyes, and suddenly asked.

"Well, Brother Qingshan, they said that cultivating immortals is too difficult for them, so it's better to live in the world and finish this life!" Ye Xiaotian said embarrassedly.

Ye Shi'er sighed again, and said quietly: "Forget it, since that stupid person wants to choose like this, there is no way! In the future, the two of us can't be separated!"

"Hmm!" Ye Xiaotian nodded heavily.

At this time, Xiao Xue, who had been staying quietly in Ye Shi'er's arms, suddenly became restless, attracting the attention of the two.

"Hey, this spirit beast really knows how to eat, and now I'm hungry again!" Ye Shi'er looked at Xiaoxue in her arms and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Ye Xiaotian was not angry and said: "It's not, this foodie will only be active when he wants to eat, most of the time it is lying still on its stomach, I really doubt that it only knows how to eat!"

Ye Shi'er heard his muttering, she covered her mouth and smiled: "Xiaotian, Xiaoxue is indeed going to eat some, but it is a real spirit beast! Well, okay, I've taken care of you for a day, and now it's time for the thing to be returned to its original owner!" said as he said that he was about to put Xiaoxue on the bed again.

However, Ye Xiaotian stopped: "Sister Shi'er, didn't I say it, this guy will give it to you!"

"Xiaotian, this senior sister can't afford it, don't you know, when the spirit beast grows up, it signs a contract with the master, and it doesn't help the master at all!"

"This ......" Hearing Ye Shi'er say this, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but look embarrassed, he knew that if he gave Xiaoxue to Sister Shi'er like this, Sister Shi'er would never accept it, but he thought about it for a while, but it was a sudden plan, since Xiaoxue loves to eat so much, why don't you start here.

So he deliberately glared at Xiaoxue, and said quietly: "Sister Shi'er, I also want to raise it, but this gluttonous eats all spiritual grass, and every time he eats a lot, he is hungry quickly, so ah, I can't afford to raise it in this place, so I can only ask Sister Shi'er to raise it!"

Ye Shi'er snorted and said with a smile: "Xiaotian, I haven't seen you for three years, I didn't expect you to be so careful! It seems that I can't help this favor!" Ye Xiaotian was about to be happy, but when he saw Ye Shi'er, he said again: "However, when Xiaoxue grows up, I will still give it back to you, and at that time, its owner will still be you!"

"Ah, this ......" Ye Xiaotian wanted to say something more, but Ye Shi'er had already stood up, "Okay, after resting for so long, you should have rested enough, I'll go and settle Xiaoxue first, and when I come back, you are not allowed to lie on the bed anymore!" After speaking, he began to walk out, and in a blink of an eye, he disappeared from Ye Xiaotian's sight. Only Ye Xiaotian sat on the bed with a stunned face.

He didn't know that after Ye Shi'er left the courtyard, a trace of unprecedented sadness suddenly appeared in her eyes, "Xiaotian, what have you experienced in the past three years? Why do you lie to Sister Shi'er, and why is there more and more demonic energy in your body?"

At this moment, there was an inexplicable cold wind in the courtyard, and the morning light suddenly darkened a lot!
