When Liuli Zhenzun saw Shangyue, he forced a smile on his tired face.
Chong Shangyue waved gently and said, "Child, come here, let me, an old man, see your face."
It was really strange to see a woman who looked only about 30 years old calling herself an "old lady", but Shangyue still walked up to her as she said.
"Child, come closer." She waved gently at Shangyue, with a hint of kindness in her voice.
Shangyue took another step forward, and Liuli Zhenzun finally seemed to be able to see Shangyue's appearance clearly, and stared at her face for a while.
Then, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good, good, you are a good boy."
"As soon as I saw you, I liked you very much. Please come and see me, an old man, often when you have time." As he said this, he held Shangyue's right hand with both hands.
Liuli Zhenzun's hands were wet and cold, which made Shangyue very uncomfortable. She pulled out her right hand calmly.
A cold look flashed in Liuli Zhenzun's eyes, but she adjusted herself immediately.
She stroked the jade pendant in her hand, lost in deep memories.
"This piece of jade was originally intended as a gift for Xian'er."
Liuli Zhenzun looked up at Shangyue and continued, "Back then, my Xuan'er, your master, was known as Fu Mingxuan. Look at me, I'm really old and confused. You were Xuan'er's disciple, so he naturally told you everything."
Shangyue paused and remained silent.
Liuli Zhenzun continued, "Xuan'er was still young at that time, but he fell in love with his youngest disciple."
As she spoke, she looked at Shangyue's face, as if remembering something. Suddenly, she said, "Oh, that little disciple's name is Bai Xianxian. He looks quite similar to you, almost indistinguishable. He brought that little disciple with him to my courtyard. As soon as they entered, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times solemnly."
"At that moment, an old man like me was shocked by their actions. I quickly reached out to help them up and asked what had happened. It turned out that they wanted to become Taoist couples, so they came to me and asked for my blessing and support."
Liuli Zhenzun said with a somewhat nostalgic expression: "As for me, what's there to be satisfied with? As long as Xuan'er likes it, I'll let him be. How many people can a person truly love in his lifetime?"
Liuli Zhenzun looked at Shangyue and said, "Child, don't you agree?"
"Yes, you are right." Shangyue nodded, and his eyes moved, revealing that he had already thought about it.
Liuli Zhenzun looks kind and amiable, but what he said is really quite sarcastic.
The person that Chihua Immortal Venerable loved the most was Bai Xianxian, who passed away a hundred years ago. The reason why Shangyue was accepted as a disciple by Chihua Immortal Venerable was simply because her appearance was too similar to Bai Xianxian, so she was used as a substitute.
If Shangyue had not clearly understood the reason why Chi Hua accepted her as his disciple, and had not had any romantic feelings towards Chi Hua, she would have been overwhelmed by jealousy after hearing what Liuli Zhenzun said.
However, is the Fu Mingxuan that Liuli Zhenzun mentioned a hundred years ago really the same person as her current master Chihua?
Last month, I fell into deep doubt.
Liuli Zhenzun looked at Shangyue calmly, with a gloomy look in his eyes.
"Unfortunately, that child also had a tragic fate. After the battle at Taicang Mountain..."
She sighed, her face full of sadness, and fell into sad memories.
Shangyue looked at her quietly, with no intention of going forward to comfort her.
And so, a moment passed.
Finally, Wanyan, who had been standing by in silence, spoke up to comfort him, "Master, don't be overly sad. Life and death are all determined by fate."
Upon hearing this, Liuli Zhenzun's expression looked better.
"Hey, why am I saying all this for no reason?"
Liuli Zhenzun's sad expression changed, and he said gently, "I think you are a sensible and well-behaved child. When elders speak, the most important thing is not to talk too much. It would be an honor for my child to accept you as his disciple."
"I dare not!" Want to use the sweet medicine jar to charm her?
Last month, I didn't buy it.
"Don't be arrogant or impatient. I really didn't misjudge you."
Liuli Zhenzun was not annoyed, but nodded with satisfaction again.
Then she changed the subject and continued:
"It's a pity that the child died at such a young age. He was unlucky. Now that you are Xuan'er's personal disciple, and you have a certain connection with the child, I will give you this jade pendant. It will also fulfill one of my wishes."
As she spoke, she took out the jade pendant from her arms and was about to put it into Shangyue's hand.
Shang Yue took a step back and politely declined, "Thank you for your kindness, Master Zhenzun, but Yin Yue does not accept gifts without merit. I simply cannot accept such a valuable gift."
Liuli Zhenzun's expression turned a bit ugly. She sighed and said, "It's just an ordinary jade pendant, not worth a few spirit stones."
A breeze blew by, and a ray of sunlight shone through the swaying shadows of the trees, just shining on the jade hairpin worn on Shangyue's head.
Afterwards, when Liuli Zhenzun saw the Nine Heavens Jade Phoenix Hairpin worn on Shangyue’s head, his face suddenly darkened.
"Xuan'er actually gave you this phoenix hairpin? Such a precious thing, he actually..."
Liuli Zhenzun took back the jade pendant and snorted coldly.
"Well, since your master has gifted you with something so precious, I guess you wouldn't look down on this broken jade of mine."
Liuli Zhenzun's expression changed from one moment to the next, and it was extremely ugly, but Shangyue turned a blind eye.
She said calmly, "If the True Lord has nothing else to do, Yin Yue will take her leave first."
After talking for a long time, I guess Master Liuli must be thirsty.
Of course, participating in the sect competition held every fifty years is much more important than this trivial matter of "family affairs".
"Hmph, go ahead!" Liuli Zhenzun snorted coldly, but did not force Shangyue to stay.
After receiving the reply, Shangyue left gracefully, her steps light and brisk, completely unaffected by anything.
Wanyan looked at Shangyue's departing back and said worriedly, "Master, are you just going to let her go like this?"
Liuli Zhenzun sneered and said, "Look at her condition. Will it be useful to force her to stay?"
Wanyan frowned, thought about it again and again, and said hesitantly: "Master, how about we just forget it!"
"Shut up!" Liuli Zhenzun's face turned cold, and he said gloomily, "That lowly little bitch surnamed Bai actually coveted my Xuan'er. Now this little loser with no background and no spiritual roots is even more hateful. He dared to use his appearance that is similar to that bitch to covet my Xuan'er. He deserves to die."
"But, looking at her now, it doesn't look like she has any desire for the young master." Wanyan said so.
Liuli Zhenzun's sharp eyes swept over Wanyan, and Wanyan lowered her head instantly, feeling frightened inside.
After a moment, Liuli Zhenzun sneered, "After all, you have lived a hundred years less than me. You are completely incapable of understanding the terrifying nature of some people's hearts."
