The next day, when Cen Xi woke up, she saw her master sitting on a stone bench in her courtyard, disheveled and unkempt, drinking the tea that Bai Ze had poured for him.
"Master! What's wrong?"
Cen Xi had a rough idea of what was going on, but she still wanted to ask a question out of mischievousness.
"Where does Master live? Take me there quickly!"
Gongsun Li glared and said, her beard bristling.
"Ugh! I'm in such a hurry! Let me finish washing up!"
Cen Xi glanced at her, then went to the courtyard to fetch water. After a quick wash, she took Gongsun Li to the back mountain where she had previously trained.
Standing outside the thicket of thorns, Cen Xi said to Gongsun Li:
“Master, use your powerful inner strength to tear open a gap in this thicket of thorns. Grandmaster is inside.”
"You're saying Master is in this thorn bush? How is that possible?"
Gongsun Li looked at Cen Xi with a suspicious expression.
"Hmm! Why do you think I betrayed my master? It's because my internal energy wasn't strong enough to get in!"
To achieve her goals and to satisfy her pent-up desires, Cen Xi had no choice but to bring Gongsun Li with her.
To be honest, she felt a little ashamed, after all, what she had done was somewhat immoral.
"Hmph! You treacherous girl, get out of my way! Watch this!"
Gongsun Li glared at her, then suddenly poured his inner strength into his palm, and in an instant, a large hole appeared in the thicket of thorns.
"Let's go! I want to see if my master is inside!"
After saying this, Gongsun went inside by himself.
After squeezing through the thorns and walking along a passageway, we finally arrived at a hole and saw an old man with white hair inside.
"Girl, you broke your promise! Didn't you say you wouldn't tell anyone I'm still alive? What you did today is really dishonest."
The old man stroked his beard, not seeming particularly angry, but he didn't hold back in his words against Cen Xi.
"Isn't it because I can't get in to see you? So I had to ask my master for help!"
Although Cen Xi was a little embarrassed, she was always thick-skinned, so the old man's words were not enough to tickle her.
"You brat, so that's what you were up to when you started bothering me as soon as you got back yesterday!"
Gongsun Li only then realized that Cen Xi, that shameless woman, had taken advantage of him.
"It's waste utilization! Oh! No! It's resource utilization, resource utilization! Master, look, haven't I helped you find your grandmaster? Don't be angry!"
Cen Xi slipped up and said something she shouldn't have, then quickly tried to cover it up.
"snort!"
After giving him a cold shoulder, Gongsun Li immediately changed her attitude and respectfully addressed the white-haired old man:
"Master, you have suffered so much all these years!"
"Just pretend I'm dead, why are you so fixated on finding me!"
The old man couldn't help but glance at Cen Xi again before speaking to Gongsun Li.
Cen Xi received a reproachful look from the old man, touched her nose, and felt a little ashamed. It seemed she had truly made a mistake. But with her personality, she was destined to be unable to keep a secret sooner or later. She had no choice!
"It seems that I have disturbed your peace and quiet, Master. I only heard that you were still alive and forgot that you love tranquility. I know I was wrong!"
Gongsun Li was heartbroken and filled with remorse!
Cen Xi couldn't help but shudder at the sight. Was her master teaching her how to respect her teacher? He was truly setting a good example for his disciples!
"Alright! Now that you know, don't blame yourself! Girl! Tell me, why did you betray me? What major event happened to you? Who was that person you mentioned last time who knew unique acupressure techniques?"
The old man Cangming pointed to a seat for Gongsun Li to sit down, and then asked Cen Xi directly.
Based on his limited understanding, he felt that this girl was definitely not someone who would only come to him for a reason; if she didn't have something to ask, she wouldn't have had the chance to betray him.
"I want to learn that acupressure technique, and I also want to know if this person is Emperor Taizu of Yan, and what shape the birthmark on Emperor Taizu of Yan's left thigh is, and whether it can be removed with medication."
Cen Xi took out the portrait she had prepared and handed it to the old man Cang Ming. Her answer was also straightforward. She was not a person who liked to drag things out. She wanted to deal with Yan Taizu as soon as possible and go live her carefree life as a god!
"This man has the appearance of nobility, but he is destined to be lonely and short-lived! And you should be the turning point in his life!"
The old man Cangming looked carefully at the man in the picture, and then looked at Cen Xi several times before speaking.
"What do you mean, old man? You mean he'll keep bothering me?"
Thinking about her two experiences, Cen Xi's feelings were indescribable.
"That's pretty much it. Now that you've met him, it means your destiny charts have been activated. You are destined to be entangled for life!"
The old man counted on his fingers again and finally came to the conclusion he expected.
"Then is he Emperor Taizu?"
Cen Xi asked coldly.
"No! He has no relation to my junior brother, but it seems like there is some connection between them."
The old man did a couple more calculations and came to an ambiguous conclusion.
"What do you mean by that? Are you suggesting he is another part of Emperor Yan's soul?"
Cen Xi looked at him and asked. It's no wonder she thought that way; she had indeed read too many novels in the past. So, she naturally brought in fantasy and martial arts themes.
"No! Yan Shengxiao changed his fate, and he seems to be influenced by him, also having a misty feeling. He can only glimpse part of the mystery."
The old man Cangming calculated it again carefully, but still couldn't come up with an accurate answer.
"Yes, Master is right, and my deduction is the same!"
Looking at the noble and imposing man in the portrait, Gongsun Li couldn't help but make some deductions.
"Hmm! Since the fates of all three of you have been altered, I can only deduce a little bit of information about the final outcome. But one thing is certain: Yan Shengxiao is a menace. If he is not eliminated, you and this person will be doomed!"
"Old Man Cangming said with a heavy expression."
"Then we must do everything in our power to kill him! Grandmaster, what does the birthmark on Yan Taizu's left thigh look like? Once we get out, I'll dig three feet into the ground to find him!"
Thinking about her bound fate, Cen Xi really wanted to immediately take a knife and split that Yan Taizu in two.
"After you left last time, I used that clay sculpture to deduce the birthmark again. It should be that his evil spirit was born in response to his death. It is immortal and can change its shape in countless ways. It will only disappear on the day he dies!"
"After you go out, you can look in this direction. As long as you see the birthmark constantly changing, then that person must be Yan Shengxiao."
The old man walked to a corner, looked at the clay sculpture that had turned completely black, and then spoke to Cen Xi.
"Okay! I'll search carefully once we get out. Old man, now you can teach me that unique acupressure technique!"
After Cen Xi nodded, she began to talk about the most important thing that had brought her back. Having been controlled by others twice and even harassed, Cen Xi simply couldn't swallow this insult.
"Who is the person who knows that unique acupressure technique? Is it the person in this painting?"
