Chapter 70: Suspecting that my sister is now a disciple of Tianyan?
Mu Fuyue looked at her sister in astonishment. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether what she said was true or false. She was confused and shocked.
The Mu Fuyun in my memory was clearly a timid, sensitive, and extremely fragile person who couldn't even look up and look others in the eye when speaking.
As a child, she was insecure and apathetic, yet desperately longed for attention. She often made deliberate attempts to attract attention. However, her clumsy and awkward appearance only served to displease her parents and neighbors.
Mu Fuyue found it really hard to connect this open and honest man, who even had a certain heroic spirit that could not be ignored, with her sister.
What exactly happened in these two years?
"Yun'er, you have changed a lot." She looked at Mu Fuyun with complicated eyes.
The blood had almost been shed. Mu Fuyun removed his other hand that was pressing tightly against his fingertips, and did not treat the small wound on himself. He just let his hand hang at his side.
The blood had not yet coagulated and the wound had not healed. A few drops slid down her fingertips, but she didn't care. She just looked at Mu Fuyue calmly.
"Do you think my changes are good, sister?"
Chu Ye, who had been silent not far away, paused for a moment, a strange feeling passing through his heart. Then his eyes fell on Mu Fuyun's hand. He silently walked to her side and cast a spell to stop the bleeding.
Mu Fuyue watched his actions calmly, her teeth clenched, and she said softly, "Okay, of course. If my parents knew that you now have a proper place to stay and are living a good life, they would definitely be as happy for you as I am."
After saying that, she suddenly turned to Chu Ye and smiled gratefully.
"Big Brother, thank you so much. You must have taken good care of Yun'er for me over the past two years."
Chu Ye's expression was slightly stiff.
Faced with Mu Fuyue's gratitude, he felt guilty, but for a moment he didn't know who he was feeling guilty towards.
Mu Fuyun glanced at him, raised the corner of his lips, and said with ruthless sarcasm: "Sister, you worry too much. A small person like me dare not trouble the care of the eldest brother."
Mu Fuyue glanced at the two of them twice, somewhat unsure of the relationship between them.
"Yun'er, why do you have to be like this?" She adopted the attitude of an elder sister to her younger sister, her rebuke mixed with helplessness and intimacy. "Big Brother, as the head of our peers, is always busy. It's already difficult for him to spare the time to care for you. Besides, it was Big Brother who brought you back from He and other places. This is already a great favor. We are grateful enough, so why should we be so demanding?"
Mu Fuyun shrugged and felt that he admired his sister even more.
Chu Ye felt uncomfortable and guilty, so he could only explain, "I really didn't do anything. Her ability to enter the sect and stay here has nothing to do with me."
"Enter the sect?" Mu Fuyue quickly caught the word, "Big Brother, are you saying that my sister is now a disciple of Tianyan?"
Chu Ye's voice paused.
Mu Fuyun answered for him, "Yes, two years ago, thanks to Senior Brother's generosity, I was able to become a disciple of Tianyan. What Sister said just now is also true. I should indeed thank Senior Brother."
When Mu Fuyue heard that it was Chu Ye who helped her join the sect, her heart finally settled down a little.
In her memory, her sister should not have any talent for cultivating immortals. If it weren't for someone's protection, she would not have had the chance to become a disciple.
He must be an outer sect disciple. After all, the Tianyan Sect's rules are strict, and all inner sect disciples must undergo outer sect assessments. Mu Fuyun had no previous cultivation foundation, so being admitted to the outer sect was unexpected. In two years, he wouldn't have made much progress anyway.
She gathered herself together and was about to say something else when the smoke that had gathered around her body began to disperse a little. Her soul, which had been watered by blood, seemed to be unable to hold on any longer.
Seeing this, Chu Ye didn't wait for her to speak and said directly: "Okay, Yue'er, now that we've met, you should rest well. This mental method can't help you sustain for too long. I'll come to see you tomorrow."
After saying this, he secretly exerted force with his hands, imprisoned Mu Fuyun with invisible spiritual power, and quickly took her out of the back hall.
Mu Fuyue was left alone, still hanging above the lotus lantern, looking at the backs of the two of them with complicated eyes.
Although Chu Ye's attitude towards Mu Fuyun was stiff and cold, Mu Fuyue could see the difference.
Outside, Chu Ye always shows his gentle, tolerant, humble and polite side to others, but he is so open in front of Mu Fuyun. Isn't this a sign of closeness?
Similarly, there is Song Xinghe's ambiguous attitude.
Of course, what made her most suspicious was Mu Fuyun's transformation.
Fortunately, Song Xinghe said that Mu Fuyun, like them, had made a vow to do everything in his power to rescue her.
Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, once a vow is made, it cannot be broken. For her, it is of great benefit and no harm.
…
It was not until he had walked dozens of feet along the mountain path outside the outer gate and could no longer see the corridor outside the back hall that he released the spiritual power in his hand and stopped by the mountain stream.
His already pale face looked even weaker.
Mu Fuyun looked at him with a half-smile: "Why, you don't want her to know that I'm now an inner sect disciple? Are you afraid that she'll be unhappy?"
"Yue'er is not that kind of person." Chu Ye explained firmly, but deep down in his heart, he couldn't deny that he was avoiding her like this because he was worried that Mu Fuyue would think too much.
He always knew that Mu Fuyue was a thoughtful person and not a naive girl who knew nothing. It was just that most of the time, she hid her disappointment and sadness so as not to worry others.
Mu Fuyun was too lazy to argue with him. He straightened his sleeves and said, "I've seen it before. It will be the same in the future. If there is nothing else, I won't come here again."
She really had no interest in having too much interaction with this sister.
Chu Ye rarely objected and remained silent.
After Mu Fuyun finished speaking, he turned and left.
The scenery of Fu Ri Peak was nice. It was a rare opportunity for her not to fly directly on her sword, but to go down step by step along the mountain path, just like when she first came to Tian Yan.
In the bamboo forest, the little Taoist boy Yunsheng was walking closely with her about a foot or two away.
Perhaps he realized that he had been discovered, so he did not hide, but followed her obediently until he heard her say "Come out". Then he jumped out happily, holding his little face and jumping in front of her.
After more than two years, he had not grown at all and was still as tall as when I first met him. His face was round and very adorable.
Many of Tianyan's little Taoist children were like him. They were injured when they were rescued, or they had congenital deficiencies and would not live long. While receiving treatment in the sect, their bloodlines were sealed or they were placed under restrictions so that they could survive safely. However, they would never grow up again in their lifetime.
"Did Song Xinghe ask you to come again?"
Mu Fuyun stopped, pinched his little round face, then took his little hand and led him down the mountain road.
Yunsheng nodded, took out a freshly picked loquat from his pocket, handed it to Mu Fuyun, took another one for himself, wiped it on his robe twice, and then brought it to his mouth to eat.
When the bright yellow loquat is bitten, the abundant juice sticks to the mouth and face, which looks very cute.
Mu Fuyun followed his example, wiped it on his clothes twice, and started eating.
The two looked at each other and laughed.
When I returned to Lingshanze, everything was quiet. Just like usual, Xie Hanyi was in seclusion in the cave, meditating and ignoring external affairs.
However, unlike before, he moved all the restrictions originally set up outside his house to a farther place so that Mu Fuyun could also enter and exit.
He didn't tell her on purpose, and Mu Fuyun didn't ask when he found out.
The two of them understood each other tacitly, and invisibly, they seemed to be closer than before.
Mu Fuyun did not return to the cave directly, but practiced sword alone by the lake until the moon was at its highest point in the sky. When he was exhausted, he put away his sword and went back.
Now that Mu Fuyue had transformed, it meant she was one step closer to the end. Before that, she had to practice even harder to advance.
On the way back, I passed by Xie Hanyi's house.
The door was closed, but the window was half-open. When passing by the window, one could just see his sideways figure.
His back was straight, his white robe was flowing, and his long black hair hung down behind him, shining softly in the moonlight.
Mu Fuyun did not stay intentionally, but just stood by the window, saluted at his silhouette, and was about to leave.
The moment she turned around, her eyes passed over him again.
There is no usual frost or ice, it is clean and refreshing. Just looking at this picture, one almost ignores the chill in the air.
Just a few inches to his side stood a small, palm-sized gilded lampstand with a cloud pattern.
Above the lampstand, blue water droplets shimmer and sparkle.
Mu Fuyun paused, a faint smile crossed his lips, then he turned back to the house, sat down cross-legged, and began to meditate and regulate his breathing.
