Chapter 108 [Spiritual Pearl] Master, Happy New Year
When Ye Musi returned to the cabin, it was already the next morning. Holding the mermaid pearl in his hand, he pushed the door open and entered, only to see Lu Lishen sitting on the bed and Zhu Jianye sitting on a chair beside him.
"How did you find this place?" He stepped into the room and closed the door.
Zhu Jianye took a deep breath and took out the Qianchen Mirror. "With the Qianchen Mirror, finding someone is effortless."
Ye Musi didn't look at Zhu Jianye again, but shifted his gaze to look at Lu Lishen who had a calm expression. He strode forward and entered the barrier he had set up. Fortunately, he set up the barrier, otherwise the two would have started fighting long ago.
"How is it? He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?" Ye Musi asked with concern. Seeing Lu Lishen shaking his head, he felt relieved.
"Ye Musi, what do you mean? Am I making things difficult for a junior?" Zhu Jianye saw in the mirror that Ye Musi had left the hut, so he came here. As soon as he entered the house, he found a chair, sat down, chatted for a few words, and then closed his eyes to rest. He was too disdainful to argue with Lu Lishen.
"Isn't it?" Ye Musi was determined to protect Lu Lishen. He stood in front of Lu Lishen and said, "You have repeatedly tried to kill A-Li. Don't think I don't know that you informed the Elders Hall in advance when you returned to the valley."
Zhu Jianye snorted coldly. He just wanted Ye Musi to face the reality. Lu Lishen not only had inner demons, but was also possessed by the devil. How could such a person continue to be the Valley Master's first disciple? He should step down as soon as possible and let Ye Musi take in another good disciple.
In the end it was his fault?
"Now I feel like an outsider. Ye Musi, you need to recognize your own identity. It's okay if you didn't know it before, but now that you know it, are you still going to be so willful?"
It's funny to say that the most willful person in Yinyou Valley is none other than Zhu Jianye. Relying on the fact that he is the disciple of the valley master and the son of two powerful elders in the valley, he is domineering and never treats anyone well, except Ye Musi.
He didn't remember when he met Ye Musi, but he only remembered that he had liked Ye Musi since he was a child, the kind of dependent liking. He still knew that he had regarded Ye Musi as his relative since he was a child.
But Ye Musi treated him as if he was dispensable, coming when he was called and dismissed when he was dismissed. Now that he had Lu Lishen, he pushed him aside. What did this mean? What did he think of him?
Zhu Jianye felt aggrieved, but he didn't say it.
"Well, come here first and let me take a look at you."
Ye Musi thought that Zhu Jianye was his junior fellow apprentice after all, and no matter how much they quarreled, they would not break up. So he took a step forward, and at this moment, Lu Lishen also grabbed his hand.
Ye Musi turned around and saw Lu Lishen looking at him hesitantly, wanting to say something. He gently patted the back of Lu Lishen's hand, signaling him not to worry.
Lu Lishen then let go of his hand. He didn't say that when Ye Musi hadn't come back just now, Zhu Jianye told him that if he stayed with Ye Musi, it would only cause trouble, and asked him to leave Ye Musi.
He didn't say a word at that time. He had thought about leaving before, so as not to drag down his master and tarnish his master's good reputation. He had thought about it a long time ago and did leave, but his master pulled him back. This meant that his master wanted to give them a chance tomorrow, so how could he give up?
But Zhu Jianye said:
"It would be best if you leave. Considering our long-standing uncle-nephew relationship, I won't kill you this time."
"Let Master choose, me or the people..." When Lu Lishen said this, his heart began to ache. A mouthful of blood was stuck in his chest, and he forced it back.
"He will definitely choose the common people."
Lu Lishen didn't say anything else, and Zhu Jianye also stopped talking.
Lu Lishen looked at Ye Musi, the smell of blood welling up in his heart, and he vomited it all out. His master had finally told him that he would never leave him, that he would be with him forever, and that he didn't need to be afraid no matter what he did, because he had his back. He had waited a long time for this, but now, everything was shattered by his master's true identity.
He knew clearly what Lingzhu's identity represented, what Ye Mushi's ending would be, and that once Ye Mushi left, they would be separated for a very long time.
He pulled Ye Musi back.
He couldn't bear to see Ye Musi jump into such a big fire pit. He couldn't bear to see Ye Musi get hurt or die, so he would make the choice for Ye Musi.
"A-Li, you—" Ye Musi's surprise turned into shock. He touched Lu Lishen's face with a distressed look and wiped away the blood. "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay." Lu Lishen said, he was just seriously injured by the Juque Sword.
"What did you do to him?" Ye Musi questioned Zhu Jianye without even turning his head.
"You set up the barrier, so you think I can't do anything to him, right?" At this moment, Zhu Jianye looked at the scene in front of him, and understood that Ye Musi would not turn back into the Ye Musi of the past.
But he was unwilling to give in. He was unwilling to accept that Ye Musi only had Lu Lishen in his mind, and even doubted himself who grew up with him.
Ye Musi pursed his lips, took out the mermaid pearl and inserted it into Lu Lishen's body. Because the saliva of the mermaid can heal wounds, the mermaid pearl can not only absorb the devil's breath, but also repair wounds.
Lu Lishen felt the wound on his chest healing at an astonishing speed, and the strange feeling disappeared in an instant.
"What now?"
Lu Lishen shook his head, "It's fine."
Seeing that Lu Lishen's injuries had improved, Ye Musi's worries eased a little. He turned to Zhu Jianye and said, "Aye, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you."
Zhu Jianye didn't care about Ye Musi's apology. He stretched out his hand and said, "Come back to Yinyou Valley with me."
Ye Musi took Lu Lishen's hand and removed the barrier. Now the mermaid pearl had entered Lu Lishen's body and could suppress the evil aura and Lu Limu. There was nothing to worry about.
He wanted to take Lu Lishen back to Hidden Valley.
"I want to take Ali back to the valley with me."
Hearing this, Zhu Jianye snorted coldly. He finally understood that where Lu Lishen was, Ye Musi's talent would be there. He didn't say anything. He didn't agree. He didn't say anything because Ye Musi wouldn't listen.
In this way, Ye Musi, Lu Lishen and Zhu Jianye returned to Yinyou Valley together.
Lu Lishen was secretly happy and behaved well for several days, doing everything Ye Musi asked for. Zhu Jianye did not disturb him during this time.
Zhu Jianye seemed to have given up and let Ye Musi go, not caring whether Lu Lishen was a demon or not. It was as if nothing had happened and everything was the same as before. The valley was the same as it should be. The Elders' Hall was in a spiritual state and cared about Lu Lishen.
As for the fact that Ye Musi was Lingzhu, Zhu Jianye did not mention it again. This matter was known to heaven, earth, and the three of them.
Within ten days, the disciples of the sect would hold an election, and ten disciples would be selected to participate in the Linghong competition.
At night, Ye Musi had already fallen asleep, and only Lu Lishen was lying beside Ye Musi's pillow, holding his fingers.
Then he heard a hurried knock on the door. Lu Li was afraid of waking up the beauty, so he patiently went to open the door.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhu Jianye standing at the door, looking exhausted. Lu Li raised his eyebrows deeply. Although Zhu Jianye often came to Yinyou Valley in the past, what was Zhu Jianye doing here so late at night?
Zhu Jianye did not stay long. He took out the golden bead in his hand, pushed Lu Lishen away and injected the bead into Ye Musi's body.
"What are you doing?" Lu Lishen became alert when he saw this. He looked at the person who was still sleeping peacefully and felt relieved again.
Zhu Jianye didn't waste any words. He said, "Your master's golden elixir."
In fact, this is not Ye Musi’s golden elixir at all. Ye Musi, as a spirit pearl, is an elixir himself, so this is Ye Musi’s true body.
The main body separated from Ye Musi, so the aura of the spirit pearl became weaker and weaker.
This is the original body of the mermaid pearl that Ye Musi exchanged for. Zhu Jianye took a long time to find it, and it took a lot of effort to get it back.
"Don't tell him."
Then Zhu Jianye left.
Lu Lishen looked at Zhu Jianye's back. For some reason, he felt that the other person's steps were a little unsteady, as if he was seriously injured.
"Ali, what's wrong?" Ye Musi heard a voice in a daze. He sat up and rubbed his eyes which were difficult to open.
As Zhu Jianye wished, Lu Lishen did not tell Ye Musi. He walked to Ye Musi and sat down, then took Ye Musi to lie down. Then he raised his hand and the door closed automatically.
"It's nothing, go to sleep." Lu Lishen kissed Ye Musi on the forehead and coaxed him to sleep.
The next day, Ye Musi announced to the public that he would go into seclusion to practice. Coincidentally, the day after he announced it, Zhu Jianye also had to go into seclusion.
The two of them were in seclusion together, and apart from these two things, there was nothing else to do.
Ye Mushi was in seclusion until the end of the year. After he came out, he found out that Zhu Jianye was also in seclusion and had not come out until now. It seemed that he did not celebrate the New Year.
"Master, Happy New Year." Lu Lishen walked into the house holding dumplings.
Lu Lishen lost his sense of taste due to the backlash, so he spent a long time preparing this dish and asked someone to taste it before serving it to Ye Musi.
"Happy New Year." Ye Musi sat down and ate the dumplings handed to him by Lu Lishen, feeling uneasy in his heart.
At this time of year in previous years, the disciples in the valley would go home to celebrate the New Year, and the elders in the valley who lived in the East Mountain would also celebrate the New Year together. Only in the West Mountain were there only him and Lu Lishen, but every year Zhu Jianye would come and celebrate the New Year with them.
He came out early just thinking about spending the New Year together, but he didn't expect Zhu Jianye to be in seclusion. I guess Aye is still angry with him.
"Is it delicious?" Lu Lishen asked Ye Musi with his head tilted.
"Hmm, delicious." As he said that, he picked up one from Nan Feng and handed it to Lu Lishen.
Lu Lishen took a deep bite and almost knocked his teeth. He spat out the dumpling and a coin appeared in his hand.
"It seems that this year's good luck is given by Master."
Ye Musi smiled gently. Actually, this was pretty good. It was nice for the two of them to celebrate the New Year together.
"You." He scratched Lu Lishen's nose lovingly, "How's the Sacred Heart Technique that your master taught you going?"
Lu Li held the coin tightly in his hand, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Master, I have almost mastered the Sacred Heart Method, but there are still some subtle details that I don't understand."
"Don't understand?" Ye Musi remembered that before he went into seclusion, Lu Lishen had already mastered the mental method by heart, so how could he not understand? "Don't let your imagination run wild."
Ye Musi, who hadn't been intimate for a long time, suddenly blushed.
"Disciple didn't say anything, Master is the one who is imagining things."
