Upon hearing the words "Master Dao Yi," Lu Shao looked up at Xuan Yuanzhan in disbelief: "You...you...you..."
Before Lu Shao could even finish uttering his shocked words, Xuan Yuanzhan already knew what he was going to ask: "You want to know when I recognized you?"
Lu Shao swallowed hard before regaining his composure and his voice: "You little brat, you really recognized me?"
"What else!" This time, Xuan Yuanzhan didn't hold back and stepped forward to rip the black face mask off his face.
That face, so familiar it couldn't be more so, was now exposed before Xuan Yuanzhan.
Heron's whistle...
No, it was too late for Dao Yi to cover it up.
"Did Doctor Luo tell you?" Dao Yi was a little afraid to meet Xuan Yuanzhan's gaze.
But Dao Yi's words shocked Xuan Yuanzhan: "You know Doctor Luo? How do you know Master?"
Xuanyuan Zhan was a little confused at this moment.
After all, in his mind, the two masters should be completely unrelated, and they had never met. He had never even mentioned Zhulin and Ning'er's master and uncle to his master, so how would he know about Doctor Luo?
Dao Yi was taken aback by Xuan Yuanzhan's use of "Master": "You're pretty good at calling me 'Master'!"
I still remember how he used every trick in the book to trick him into calling him "Master"!
Now it's so easy for me to call people that.
Xuan Yuanzhan really didn't expect Dao Yi to mind this, and said innocently, "Doctor Luo is Ning'er's master, and I am Ning'er's husband, so isn't Ning'er's master my master? If I don't call her master, what should I call her?"
...That makes sense!
Dao Yi really couldn't refute it, and after thinking for a moment, he added, "But your wife didn't call me Master either!"
No matter how he calculates it, he's losing out!
Xuan Yuanzhan looked helplessly at the sleeping girl in his arms: "We just haven't had the chance yet. When she's awake next time, I'll definitely bring her to formally pay her respects to you."
Fearing that he would keep dwelling on this question, Xuan Yuanzhan asked again, "How exactly did you get to know Ning'er's master?"
He never imagined that the two people knew each other.
"It's a long story, you just need to remember that Doctor Luo was kind to our Xuanmen sect." The matter is too complicated to explain in a sentence or two.
Dao Yi then asked curiously, "Since it wasn't Doctor Luo who told you, how did you know I was your master?"
Xuanyuan Zhan stared at Dao Yi, recalling his childhood.
At that time, his mother found him a master to teach him martial arts. Because the martial arts the master taught were different from ordinary martial arts, he almost went insane when he was learning the mental techniques. So his mother took him to Bailong Temple to visit Master Daoyi.
When he first met Master Daoyi, he felt that his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat familiar, but at that time he did not recognize him clearly.
Listening to Master Daoyi's sermons would calm him down considerably, and his chaotic mind would relax. Master Daoyi would even treat the injuries he sustained from martial arts training.
Besides his mother and master, he also liked Master Daoyi very much, so he would often go to listen to Master Daoyi's lectures. He and Master Daoyi were both teachers and friends.
He truly recognized his master because his master always taught him martial arts and mental techniques while masked. In fact, his master would even cover his head, leaving only his eyes visible. And after each lesson, his master would always let him leave first.
He was genuinely curious about his master's identity, so one time after he left, he hid and followed his master after he came out.
At that time, his lightness skill hadn't been mastered very well, so he couldn't keep up. Just as he was anxiously looking for his master, he found that his master had returned. It was on that occasion that he discovered his master couldn't discern directions. That day, he wandered around the forest like a headless fly for a long time before finally emerging from the woods.
Perhaps because he had been spinning for so long, when he used his lightness skill to follow him, he was able to keep up without being detected.
Only later did he realize that his master had gone to Bailong Temple. When he saw him enter Bailong Temple, he instantly understood where the sense of familiarity that Master Daoyi gave him came from.
Later, in order to verify this, he deliberately cut his master's hand while practicing swordsmanship. The day after finishing his martial arts practice, he went to Bailong Temple to play chess with Master Daoyi. Didn't he find out the truth in one test?
"Ahem~" Xuan Yuanzhan coughed lightly and said, "This matter is a long story, I will tell you in detail next time when there is an opportunity."
Dao Yi had been waiting for a long time, only to receive this reply, which made him so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks: "How exactly did you recognize your master? Tell me!"
Xuan Yuanzhan was used to seeing Master Daoyi's calm and composed demeanor, so it was quite amusing to see him so anxious. "I'm not available right now, am I? I'll explain in detail when I'm available next time."
Then, as if struggling, she said, "I can't carry Ning'er anymore, so I'll head back first. Remember to go south, and don't get the direction wrong again."
As he spoke, Xuanyuan Zhan leaped into the air and disappeared once again.
This time, he's really gone.
Dao Yi watched Xuan Yuanzhan's disappearing figure, his face turning ashen with anger.
If that little brat knew which way was south, would he need to give him directions?
Dao Yi looked at the forests that all looked the same and was troubled once again.
Which side is south?
It was almost midnight when Xuanyuan Zhan carried Su Xuening back to the bamboo forest.
Xuan Yuanzhan carefully placed Su Xuening on the bed, and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he even stole a kiss on her lips.
Su Xuening seemed to sense something and snuggled closer to Xuan Yuanzhan.
Seeing that she kept hiding in his arms, Xuan Yuanzhan had no choice but to pull her into his embrace.
Looking at Su Xuening's peaceful sleeping face, Xuan Yuanzhan himself was not sleepy at all. He took out the Xuanmen secret manual that his master had just given him.
Upon seeing the cultivation techniques in the manual, Xuan Yuanzhan understood what his master had just said.
It really is different from ordinary martial arts techniques. His master had taught him many martial arts techniques before, but they were completely different from this manual. The techniques in this manual were similar to the mental cultivation methods he had learned before.
No wonder his master said he could understand this technique; he truly could.
It wasn't just that he could understand them; just seeing these techniques made his internal cultivation method uncontrollably begin to follow suit.
Thinking that Long Jiaojiao's Free and Unfettered Divine Skill had already advanced to the eighth level, Xuan Yuanzhan became even more determined to learn this skill and began to cultivate it diligently with the manual in hand.
Having learned the Xuanmen mental cultivation method and thus possessing a foundation, Xuan Yuanzhan found learning Xuanmen techniques relatively easy. However, just as his master had said, it was quite painful.
It hurts a lot, a dense, tingling pain all over my body. I can't pinpoint where it hurts; it feels like my skin hurts on the outside, but it also feels like my bones and tendons hurt inside.
No matter how painful it is, Xuan Yuanzhan has to endure it!
