“Senior, I’ve thought about it for a few days. In the end, I still feel that I need to go through more difficult training to achieve greater growth. My talent is too poor, and my Dantian has been destroyed. If I go to Jade Mirage Sect, the environment of such a big sect should be more comfortable than Water Moon Dock. For me, it will only wear down my will.”
Xue Yan stood in front of Liu Yuan and said firmly, “I understand that what I need is not only the resources for cultivation, but also the motivation. It is not suitable for me to focus on cultivation, seeking Immortality and discussing Dao. I can not be satisfied with the current situation, or I will be dragged down by my own aptitude and become that waste again. So, Senior, please allow me to go to the demon sect and betray the Righteous Path with the reason that I was bullied by the Water Moon Dock. I will also use the failed recruitment by Ma Shu as a cover to find the demon sect to pledge my allegiance. It is reasonable.”
Liu Yuan looked at the determined Xue Yan with a complicated expression.
He even felt a little ashamed.
The protagonist template was indeed the protagonist template. To be able to say the famous line ‘turning over a new leaf’, it was really inexcusable if he did not have a forbearing, determined, hard-working, and indifferent character.
In comparison, he, a transmigrator who relied on cheats to live off a woman, seemed very poor and weak.
However, he did not have the desire to conquer the world and become the strongest in the Immortal cultivation world. He just had to live off a woman, find cards, and fight to be strong enough not to be killed by the Asura arena.
Liu Yuan coughed twice and said, “It’s good that you have this awareness. I also believe that you have the ability to resist the temptation and threat of the demonic sect. Originally, if I couldn’t defeat the spying third elder, I would have arranged for you to enter the demonic sect. But you must remember, you must never forget your own heart!”
Seeing that he chose to believe in him without any hesitation, Xue Shao said excitedly, “I won’t let you down, Senior!”
He raised his hand and made a vow. “I, Xue Yan, swear that I will never forget my original intention. I will remember my mission of eliminating evil and protecting the Dao. I will open up a bright path for the righteous cause in the dark. Otherwise, I will be struck by Heavenly Lightning and be consigned to eternal damnation!”
A white light flashed, and a mysterious rune appeared on the back of Xue Xiao’s hand. It used the power of heaven and earth as a shackle, and once violated, one would suffer the Heavenly Tribulation.
The rune disappeared on the back of his hand, and Xue Yan’s eyes became more determined. He clenched his fist and said, “I will definitely repay Senior’s cultivation. No matter how cruel the demon sect’s methods are, I won’t be afraid, because Senior has already given me a huge belief, allowing me to believe in myself.”
No, I’m not. I didn’t.
I’ve only given you a cultivation technique that’s very difficult and painful to cultivate. The rest is just your own imagination.
But… why did it feel like even he was a little excited?
Liu Yuan’s expression was subtle. He felt that he had taught some strange person.
However, what was done was done, and there was no room for dissuasion. He could only sigh and express that he hoped that Xue Yan would take care of himself. He also conjured a Vajra Subduing Demon Spell and added it to him.
The next day, Xue Yan arrogantly retaliated against two Water Moon Dock disciples who looked down on him. After the conflict broke out, he talked about his previous life without restraint. He was very dissatisfied and resentful in his heart. After betraying Water Moon Dock, he ran to a stronghold of the demonic sect that Ma Shu had provided.
That stronghold was the only useful information that Ma Shu had provided. When he was a spy, he was completely under the command of the Third Elder. He did not know much himself and was basically a tool.
From the looks of it, Ma Shu was quite miserable.
That stronghold was the only one he knew of, but it was only a brief description. Liu Yuan had to combine the information he knew and sort it out before he could confirm that this stronghold was a small sect.
When Xue Yan left, he did not forget to beat up those who had humiliated him before. He did not say how aggrieved he was, but he said that he disdained to be associated with the mud frogs.
Liu Yuan felt that what he said was the truth, so he had to use the most intense way to prove himself. Whether he betrayed the sect or went undercover, he did not need to care about what others thought.
Xue Yan was only 16 years old. At this age, he was still in his puberty. When her rebellious mind became serious, he would do anything to oppose things. No one could persuade him.
After Liu Yuan had obtained the approval of Lady Wan, he successfully brought Gu Chang to Chiyu Villa to be taught. Gu Siyin also followed suit. Because the Water Moon Dock was still busy, Ning Xiangrong also stayed at Chiyu Villa for a period of time.
Unexpectedly, they got along quite well, but Zhiying, who appeared from time to time, made Ning Xiangrong very jealous.
Gu Siyin and Zhiying were around the same age, but Gu Siyin was lively and talkative by nature, while Zhiying was a person who cherished her words like gold and had a very distant personality. When they were together, Gu Siyin was very depressed. Fortunately, Gu Siyin was addicted to cultivation now. She was as happy as a lark when she was with Liu Yuan every day, and she could even endure the boring cultivation.
For Gu Siyin, who had been labeled as a ‘Golden Beauty’ by the System, this was indeed not easy.
Apart from that, what Liu Yuan came into contact with the most every day was Chuichui, who he had just received.
Every day, he stroked her by her hand. Her fur was smooth and shiny, and her meowing was getting more and more pleasing to the ear. At first, she was a little pretentious, but later, it was completely natural and coquettish.
Liu Yuan had the most peaceful and comfortable days since he transmigrated. As for Ning Xiangrong’s wedding, after a private conversation with Gu Siyin one day, it became a shocking white school scene for the three of them.
Of course, that was in private.
On the surface, because of Gu Siyin and Liu Yuan’s master-disciple relationship, it was impossible for them to get married directly. Thus, Gu Siyin even planned a betrayal.
However, the plan had not yet been officially implemented, and the marriage between Liu Yuan and Ning Xiangrong had not been carried out.
Because after the Water Moon Dock incident was resolved, the happy days with Ning Xiangrong and Gu Siyin passed in less than a month. Then, a piece of news that shocked the entire cultivation world came.
Shen Sifan, also known as the ‘Green Lotus Swordsman’ appeared. She was the younger sister of the Pavilion Master of the Taiqing Pavilion, which was one of the two major Daoist sects alongside the Jade Mirage Sect. She had suddenly come out of seclusion a few days ago and was riding a sword all the way to the southeast of the central continent.
It was said that she was aggressive, as if she was seeking revenge.
Because the Water Moon Dock had been in chaos for the past few days, the news had been delayed. By the time the news reached here, Green Lotus Swordsman was said to have already reached the border of the Jiang Kingdom in the southeast of Central Plains.
In other words, it would take about three days to reach the place about ten thousand miles West of Water Moon Dock by riding a flying sword.
On the day Liu Yuan received the news, he was happily playing with Chuichui, using Foxtail Grass instead of a cat stick. He was happy to see the chubby orange cat rolling around on the ground.
Then, he said, “Green Lotus Swordsman is coming in the direction of Water Moon Dock.”
His happy smile instantly froze.
The Foxtail Grass was torn in half by Chuichui’s claws.
