Away from Anhou Mansion.

Backyard atrium.

"Is this true?"

Li Wuji looked at the old man Wuji and asked with a smile.

"Do you think the old man will talk nonsense to coax you little doll?"

Old Man Wuji smiled and asked dissatisfiedly.

"Of course not!"

Li Wuji replied with a smile, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

Originally, he thought that Old Man Wuji said that at that time, just to make Yue Lingyao give up the idea of continuing to do it.

"If you want to become the future sect master of the Wuji Sect, you must be a member of my Wuji Sect, since the old man has agreed, are you willing to worship my Wuji Sect?"

The old man Wuji looked at Li Wuji seriously and asked in a deep voice.

"Meet the master in vain!"

When Li Wuji heard this, he didn't hesitate at all, and directly bowed to the teacher, and said with a respectful face.

"Teachable!"

The old man Wuji smiled and stretched out his hand to help Li Wuji up, his face filled with a smile of relief.

It can be seen that he does like the new apprentice of Li Wuji.

According to age, at the age of the old man Wuji, he can already be the grandfather of Wuji, so the old man Wuji always inadvertently reveals a kind tone that can only be found when dealing with children.

"Master drink tea!"

Li Wuji got up with a smile, took the teapot in Cao Zi'an's hand, and personally poured a cup for the old man Wuji, who was well-behaved like an obedient child.

So far, the old man Wuji is the person he respects the most, even when he first met the empress, he never knelt down to salute, but just now he knelt.

It was the first time he had bent his knees in front of someone!

"Good!"

"Since you have worshiped the old man as a teacher, then the teacher must give you some greeting gifts."

The old man Wuji said with a smile as he reached out and took out two old books from his arms and handed them to Liwuji's hand.

Li Wuji took it respectfully, and after opening it, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide, and his eyes were full of joy.

These are two secret books, one records the method of true qi cultivation, and the other is a sword book containing profound sword intent!

"These two cheats are the results of the old man's lifelong practice, and now the old man is already old, and he has been looking for a successor to the mantle, I hope you don't disappoint the old man."

The old man Wuji looked at Li Wuji and said in a serious voice, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"Master rest assured, the apprentice will study diligently in the future, and you will not be disappointed!"

Li Wuji nodded affirmatively and said loudly.

Hearing Li Wuji's assurance, the old man Wuji smiled with satisfaction, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

"Master, how do I think your two cheats seem to have been prepared a long time ago?"

"It can't be that you had planned to take me as an apprentice in the first place, right? From the Purple Maple Forest to the Lianhou Mansion, along the way, you are just testing me, right? ”

After putting away the cheats, he suddenly realized something, looked at the old man Wuji with a wicked smile, and asked tentatively.

"You're so bold, you've just apprenticed, and you're starting to suspect the old man's mind, right?"

The old man Wuji blushed, picked up the dust and gently tapped it on Liwuji's head, pretending to be dissatisfied and reproached.

Li Wuji grinned and hurriedly dodged to the side, and then the master and apprentice couldn't help but laugh.

In the midst of laughter, Li Wuji also officially became a disciple of Wuji Sect, and was pinned on by the old man Wuji, and turned into a candidate for the next sect master of Wuji Sect!

The world is unpredictable, and perhaps all the hardships experienced in the first half of life are the trials and tribulations experienced for the glory of the second half of life.

Early the next morning.

After a long conversation with Li Wuji all night, the old man Wuji finally said goodbye, planning to leave the capital and return to Wuji Peak, which was thousands of miles away.

In front of the Hou Mansion, Li Wuji led everyone to send the old man Wuji to the carriage, with a reluctant face.

Although he had only known this old man for one day, he was like a friend who had not seen him for many years, and he always felt very cordial.

It's in a hurry, but it seems to be doomed in the dark.

"Wuji, the capital is deep, although the temple is not as bloody as the rivers and lakes, but it is more of a battlefield where you can't see the light of the sword, and you can't afford to be negligent."

"As a teacher, I know that there are some things you must do, but I hope you will remember that everything must be done first, not just forward, remember."

The old man Wuji stood in front of the carriage, looked at Li Wuji with a kind face, and said very seriously.

"The apprentice understands, please rest assured, one day, the apprentice will cut off all the thorns and return the world to a bright future!"

Li Wuji nodded seriously and said with a firm face.

"Okay, I believe in you for the teacher!"

"Gone!"

Old Man Wuji nodded slightly in relief, then waved his hand and turned to get into the carriage, accompanied by two disciples, and slowly drove in the direction of the city gate.

"Congratulations to the master! Have a safe trip! ”

Li Wuji knelt on one knee, arched his hands, and looked at the direction in which the carriage left, and the sound was like a bell.

Seeing this, the others followed Wuji and knelt on the ground to salute, watching the carriage gradually move away.

It wasn't until the carriage drove out of sight that Li Wuji slowly stood up, glanced at the direction of Broken Yin Mountain, turned around and returned to Fuzhong, and the persistence in his heart was a little firmer.

...

Two days later.

Away from Anhou Mansion.

Li Wuji sat in the gazebo in the backyard garden, lazily leaning back on a chair and basking in the sun.

The sudden calm made him a little unaccustomed, he has not left the house for the past two days, and he has studied the two secret books left by the master for two days, and has benefited a lot.

The car dealership has also opened, and now the streets and alleys of the capital are full of rickshaws, forming a dazzling landscape.

In fact, he didn't plan to watch the car dealership make money, but in this way he weaved a net in the streets and alleys of the capital.

An intelligence network that can send and receive messages at any time, and the coachmen are all selected from the Tianshu and the Heavenly Abyss.

In fact, he has been waiting for the empress and the court to react for the past two days.

With the exposure of the Sword of the Son of Heaven, the empress should take action, including Lijing.

After all, the word Son of Heaven and everything in the previous dynasty have long been taboo in the capital.

But two days passed, and it was still calm, as if everyone had deliberately avoided it, when it had never happened.

However, this is also the result of Wuji's expectations, because it can be confirmed that the hidden identity of his future Wuji Sect Master has played its due role.

That's a good thing, at least for now.

Then, Li Wuji can do things more reliant and unscrupulous.

People can't be too cautious, especially people like Li Wuji, who have super abilities and backstage, but can still act cautiously and take ten steps in one step.

If that's really the case, then someone can't sleep at night, so he must have a flaw, a weakness.

And all this is just a play directed and acted by him, even if some people suspect it, in order to buy or use him, they will choose to turn a blind eye.

At this moment, footsteps came, and Cao Zi'an slowly walked from the front yard.

"Childe, Luo Ping asks to see."

Cao Zi'an bowed and said respectfully.

"Let him come."

Li Wuji pursed his lips and sneered, and said lightly.

Soon, Luo Ping, who was full of flattery, walked into the pavilion with Cao Zi'an quickly.

"I've seen Master Hou!"

Luo Ping secretly glanced at Li Wuji and saluted respectfully.

Li Wuji ignored it, closed his eyes slightly, and pretended not to hear anything.

"Master Hou, the lower officials are here to atone for your sins!"

Luo Ping frowned, then suddenly knelt on the ground and said bitterly.

"Lord Luo, where is this, as the commander of the capital camp guard, you are in charge of the Five Elements Division, and you are acting according to the orders of the empress, what qualifications does this Hou have to condemn you?"

"It's not that I drank too much last night and regarded this place as a Cloud Palace."

Li Wuji pursed his lips and said lightly, still closing his eyes and recuperating, without raising his eyelids.

"Of course Master Hou is qualified, with your status, even if you order the immediate execution of the lower official now, the lower official will not dare to have any objections."

Luo Ping shook his head and said with an affirmative expression.

"Really?"

Li Wuji opened his eyes, silently looked at Luo Ping who was kneeling on the ground, and asked seriously.

"Really!"

"But Master Hou, you will definitely not do that, just this cheap life of an official, can you still do errands for you?"

Luo Ping nodded vigorously, but then he changed his words and said.

Hearing Luo Ping's answer, Li Wuji couldn't help but let out a sneer.

"Now that you know you're wrong, tell me what happened to you?"

Li Wuji snorted lightly and asked coldly.

Hearing Li Wuji's cold words, Luo Ping's heart tightened, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes...
