Yu Xuanzi burst into tears, respectfully kowtowed to Zhang Daoling three times, begging to be by his side often, and promised not to make any other requests.

This is said very clearly, and anyone who is not stupid or stupid should be able to understand it, which means: Although I like you, I only want to like it silently in my heart in the future, and I will not take any practical action again, and I will not beg for any results.

This should be the daydream of most men in the world!

However, Zhang Daoling, who wanted to seek the Tao and become an immortal, still rejected her ruthlessly, and resolutely told Yu Xuanzi that his ambition in this life was to pursue the highest level of Taoism, and he did not want to be disturbed by any mortal world, and ruthlessly threatened to sever the master-apprentice relationship with her.

After saying that, he returned to his room and slammed the door shut.

Yu Xuanzi did not give up, but knelt in front of Zhang Daoling's house, and knelt for three days.

In the past three days, Zhang Daoling's heart was also uncomfortable, he had to sit cross-legged, silently recite the calming mantra, trying to calm his heart, he also didn't eat or drink for three days, and didn't even stand up once.

On the evening of the third day, he heard Yu Xuanzi outside the door shouting in an extremely hoarse voice, "Don't dare to face your own heart, what kind of way is this?" Blindly evading, this is the real practice? Aren't you going to pursue the highest level of Taoism? All right! I will defeat you in Taoism and make you feel ashamed. ”

Yu Xuanzi said every word like a needle, and it pierced Zhang Daoling's chest fiercely.

Oh, yes! What is the way you are pursuing? At that moment, he was also a little dazed.

What is the Tao? Isn't the Tao supposed to be in accordance with the will of God, go with the flow, and follow the laws of nature's development!

I feel like my brain is a mess! The cut is still messy.

In the next three years, he didn't see Yu Xuanzi again, and gradually let go of this matter, only in the dead of night when he faced a bitter lamp, he would occasionally think of her, accompanied by a faint pain in his heart.

He knew he was in love, but he didn't know what it was.

In the past three years, he has visited Dachuan in search of famous mountains, and his reputation for chivalry has become more and more famous.

At that time, there was still a lot of uncultivated land on the land of Yanxia, the miasma was pervasive, and demons were rampant.

Moreover, there are many more demonic things than now, and ordinary people or ordinary weapons can't deal with them at all, so Zhang Daoling has devoted himself to studying the swordsmanship to deal with them.

Counting it up, Zhang Daoling had a slight understanding of the swordsmanship of exorcism before saving Yu Xuanzi, so in addition to "Zhang Tianshi", he also broke out of another name - exorcist.

Maybe Zhang Daoling is the earliest exorcist in China!

This year, he thought that the exorcism sword technique had been completed, and the ordinary evil spirit could not complete ten moves in his hands.

In the past two years, there is another person who understands Taoism in the rivers and lakes and gradually broke out of the world, Zhang Daoling just heard her name and knew that she was a woman, but he never had the opportunity to meet her.

In the summer of that year, the Yellow River flooded, and a large snake with three heads appeared in the river, this snake was more than 30 meters long, its waist was thicker than the large water tank in the countryside, and the scales on its body were larger than copper coins, and it was extremely hard and invulnerable.

Strange snakes come out of the Yellow River every night, causing wind and waves, endangering hundreds of miles, killing many people, and countless livestock eaten by him.

The people nearby complained of suffering, so they invited Zhang Daoling.

At first, Zhang Daoling didn't take it too seriously, after all, he had not failed once in dealing with all kinds of demons and ghosts in the past few years.

This time, he held the green steel sword in his hand and followed the people who led the way to the section of the river where the three-headed monster snake often haunted.

What Zhang Daoling never expected was that this strange snake was more powerful than all the evil spirits he had encountered before, and the two sides fought from dawn to dark, and the strange snake seemed to be tireless, but Zhang Daoling gradually lost his strength and fell behind.

He realized that if he continued like this, he would have to die or be seriously injured, but if he wanted to escape, he was unable to do so.

At this moment, suddenly there was a crisp scolding sound behind him, and then a white light flashed, and the strange snake hurriedly retreated again and again, half of its body retreated into the Yellow River.

Zhang Daoling was startled, turned around hurriedly, and saw a woman with a sword standing behind him.

The woman was dressed in a navy blue robe, with a slender figure and a majestic atmosphere, which looked a little familiar.

The woman glanced at him, then raised her sword and jumped at the serpent.

Zhang Daoling was stunned, and then recognized it, it turned out to be his apprentice Yu Xuanzi, who he hadn't seen for three years.

Yu Xuanzi was also holding a green steel sword, and with a wave of his hand, seven or eight sword flowers immediately appeared in the air.

Zhang Daoling had never seen this kind of swordsmanship - Yu Xuanzi's body was as light as a butterfly flying, and like a bee stinging, waving left and right, and in an instant, a sword seemed to turn into thousands of swords, all of which stabbed at the huge strange snake.

The strange snake let out a heart-rending scream, its body twisted as if it was in pain, and its whole body retreated into the Yellow River.

This surprised Zhang Daoling a lot - he didn't expect Yu Xuanzi, who hadn't seen him for three years, to learn such a profound swordsmanship, and he had already killed the strange snake in pain with only two moves.

Zhang Daoling had never seen this kind of swordsmanship.

When he reached the seventh move, he saw Yu Xuanzi raise the green steel sword high, and then a white light pierced the sky, like lightning, the entire earth and the Yellow River were illuminated, and there was a dragon groan faintly, which shook Zhang Daoling's ears and instinctively closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw something that made him unbelievable.

The strange snake was already in a different place, and his docile apprentice back then held the green steel sword high, staring at the dead snake coldly, standing between heaven and earth like a god.

He couldn't believe his eyes—it was obvious that Qing Xuanzi's swordsmanship was far superior to his own at this moment.

The shocked Zhang Daoling looked at Yu Xuanzi dumbfounded, and Yu Xuanzi also looked at him.

At this moment, Zhang Daoling had a very special feeling, and even with his years of cultivation, he couldn't restrain this inner impulse.

At this moment, he understood his intentions - it seemed that he had long had a love for this extremely intelligent and talented apprentice.

After knowing each other for a full minute, Yu Xuanzi gently asked Zhang Daoling where is the highest realm of Taoism you are pursuing?
