Chapter 25: My position as a disciple will always be reserved for the girl
Yue Qiran was silent for a long time before shaking her head and saying, "I'm sorry, Sect Master Wen, I can't give you an answer right now."
"Once a teacher, always a father. Becoming a teacher is indeed a big deal. You can take your time to think about it."
He paused at this point and added, "The position of my disciple will always be reserved for you, young lady."
This solemn look shocked Yue Qiran, and Han Yueshan and the others also found it incredible.
After Sect Master Wen returned to his room, Xi Jing hesitantly asked, "Big Brother, have you seen him?"
She didn't finish her words, but Han Yueshan knew what she meant. He shook his head woodenly and said, "No, the closest time was three years ago, but that time he didn't look so serious and solemn."
Xi Jing shifted her attention: "What happened that time? Why haven't I heard about it?"
Zhao Xue added earnestly, "That time, Widow Li from the foot of the mountain came up and asked Master to allow Senior Brother to be her child husband."
…
There was silence.
Han Yueshan's eyes darted around as he said, "I was just saying it casually. I never thought she would take it seriously. But that's not important now. What's important is, what happened to Master? Why is he so serious all of a sudden?"
Xi Jing frowned and proposed what she thought was the most likely possibility: "Could it be that Master thinks we are useless and wants to take in another one?"
Zhao Xue immediately shook his head and rejected this hypothesis, saying, "Big Brother is indeed useless, but we two still have a chance."
Yue Qiran on the side became more serious. This sect didn't look normal.
The three of them pondered for a while, made a decision, and looked at Yue Qiran at the same time, saying in unison: "Otherwise, just agree to it."
She looked at them in confusion: "Huh?"
The three of them looked at each other, and it was Zhao Xue who spoke first: "Master rarely looks so serious. Perhaps his time is coming, and his temperament has changed drastically. If you really don't want to be here, you can wait until the time comes before leaving."
What does it mean… the day is coming? For the first time, Yue Qiran felt that there was something wrong with her comprehension.
The two people on the side were stunned. Han Yueshan gave his junior brother a slap on the face and scolded him, "Although Master looks like he's going to die from time to time, when has he ever really died? The nickname "Old Immortal" wasn't given for nothing."
"That's right, don't curse Master."
He looked at them in surprise: "So that's not what you thought?"
"Nonsense!" Han Yueshan said angrily, "I was thinking that Master admired the girl's beauty and couldn't bear to see her face the dangers of the world alone. Ouch! Xi Jing, why did you step on me?"
She stepped on him again: "You think your master is you, and all you have in your mind is beauty?"
"Then what do you think is the reason?"
"Of course it's because Master feels that our sect has a connection with my sister! Besides, if I want my sister to join us, I have to be polite."
Watching them quarreling there, Yue Qiran's already complicated mood became even more complicated. She felt that she might need to think about it for a while.
After the commotion, Xi Jing took her hand and said expectantly: "Sister, just agree. Our sect is simple and you can live a stable life here."
She asked softly, "Xi Jing, do you really want me to join the sect?"
Xi Jing answered very seriously: "The first time I met you, I felt that you were very familiar."
Her two senior brothers nodded. It was strange because they also had this feeling of déjà vu when they first met this girl. It would be great if they could become fellow brothers and sisters.
Yue Qiran seemed to be lost in thought. There must be a divine will in everything. Perhaps she could seriously consider it?
That night, she had just finished washing up when her inner demon was waiting in the room. She was not surprised by this and even greeted him leisurely, asking, "What do you want to say?"
It crossed its legs and hummed a song slowly.
Yue Qiran frowned and said, "If you don't tell me, I'll go to sleep."
The inner demon stopped and said with a smile: "I am your inner demon, can you give me some face?"
"Do you think you have a demon? Normally, demons appear when something crucial happens or when you're experiencing major emotional fluctuations. But you? They appear all the time."
It shrugged. "You can't blame me for this. My formation wasn't my idea. Besides, if there are such cute corpse demons, there must be such a well-behaved inner demon like me."
"Well-behaved?" Yue Qiran smiled helplessly, "You just haven't found the opportunity yet."
The inner demon chuckled softly and said, "Then don't give me the chance. After all, my instinct is to lure you into the devil."
She put away her smile, of course she knew this.
"Go away, I'm going to sleep."
The inner demon faced her expulsion and said indifferently: "If you want to have a good sleep, you'd better let me finish what I want to say."
Yue Qiran's expression turned grim. She didn't want to be dragged into those terrible dreams in the middle of her sleep. "Speak."
"Are you going to make the same mistake again?" Its eyes were bright. "One master, three fellow apprentices, what a coincidence."
She shook her head and replied calmly: "I joined later, so I should be a junior sister, not a senior sister."
The inner demon grasped the key point and said, "So you really want to become my disciple?"
Yue Qiran fell silent. She was very envious. She had envied the atmosphere of this sect for a long time.
The inner demon sighed and said temptingly, "Your spiritual veins are already broken, so what's the point of taking him as your master? It would be better for you to become a demon."
She glanced at it and said, "You can go now."
It spread its hands and disappeared.
However, she still had dreams at night.
"Why would I accept a loser like you?"
"Junior sister, you are actually Yue Qiran? Get out of here!"
"Yue Qiran, we were all killed by you, are you happy?"
"Hahaha, Yue Qiran, you're such a loser. You're useless except for repeating the same mistakes and making things easier for others!"
She woke up from her dream and saw her inner demon standing in front of the bed, looking at her quietly.
"You're here again."
"This dream was not created by me."
"I know."
After the man and the demon finished speaking, they fell silent again. As daylight approached, the inner demon finally spoke again: "Have you decided?"
"Um."
"Why?"
Yue Qiran stood up and looked outside, saying, "We have to give it a try."
"Aren't you afraid of repeating the same mistakes?"
Of course she was scared, otherwise she wouldn't have had this dream, but so what? She couldn't give up the dream she had had for so many years just because of those few people. It wasn't worth it.
No one knew that the deepest wish of the notorious Yue Qiran was not to become an immortal or to strengthen the sect, but to live in a relaxed and happy sect, leading a leisurely life, with brothers and sisters who could play and fight with him, and an ordinary master.
And all of this now seems within reach.
