Chapter 1121 Let's just forget about it.
"I'll probably be back soon these next few days, Master. Just wait a moment." Xie Zheng carefully put the things away. "Thank you for bringing me these things, Master."
"Well, and most importantly, the Youth Preservation Pill. I bought it from an alchemist. You must take it carefully," Master Han said casually, looking him over. "I don't want anyone to think I'm your disciple next time we meet."
This remark drew laughter from everyone.
Xie Zheng said helplessly, "Master, I don't really care about my appearance. It's just that Xue doesn't care about my looks."
The words had a hint of boasting.
Master Han scoffed lightly, "Is that so? Then why is it that these past few days in the Upper Realm, she's been glancing at handsome young men more often, and even striking up conversations with them?"
"Uncle-Master, you're making fun of me! What did I do?" Song Chunxue felt helpless and anxious, as if she had been falsely accused. "How can you be a master like this?"
"Then I must have misjudged it?" Master Han toyed with the jade thumb ring, his tone mild, yet tinged with a hint of annoyance.
Song Chunxue turned to look at Xie Zheng, her expression unusually coquettish.
Others looked away, indicating they couldn't bear to watch.
Lord Zhao said, "Why did you provoke her? Even so, Lord Xie will forgive her. It's not like she ran away with someone else. Why are you in such a hurry, as her teacher? You're already so old, are you afraid she'll be seduced?"
"At such an old age, ha, I know that among the snake clan, fox clan, and mortals, there are plenty of cases where people change their hearts in their old age. How old is she? Can cultivators be compared to ordinary people? She looks as lively and energetic as a street child. She fought Qingxuan for nine hours. She's still young."
"..." This statement makes it hard to tell whether it's good or bad.
Song Chunxue reassured Xie Zheng with her eyes, then readily stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your praise, Uncle-Master."
Master Han glanced at her, then looked helplessly at his disciple, "You've already believed her sweet talk. In a few years, she won't be so compliant. If you two start arguing, you won't be able to beat her. You need to practice your swordsmanship and cultivate diligently."
"Master's teachings are correct." Xie Zheng nodded with a smile, looking gently at Song Chunxue to indicate that she was alright.
Lord Zhao chuckled, tilted his head back and laughed, looking at him with great interest, "You know all this?"
"I've walked among mortals all these years, witnessing countless births, aging, sickness, and deaths of ordinary people, the mundane details of old couples' lives. Young man, I see things much more clearly than you do." Master Han suddenly felt a sense of helplessness, like an elder talking to a younger person.
"Never mind, you'll find out later." Master Han raised his cup to the Moon-Companion Immortal, "Senior Brother, a toast to you."
At this time, peers seem especially precious, which brings great comfort.
Fortunately, he is no longer the oldest and loneliest one.
"Okay, junior brother, feel free to do as you please."
After drinking his wine, the Moon-Accompanying Immortal placed the wine cup aside.
"I don't think it's strange for people to get tired of each other, whether they are married couples or spiritual partners. It's human nature. There will always be a few years when they are indifferent to each other."
He took out a white porcelain wine bowl, saying, "Just like my wine cup has been with me for countless days and nights, but when I happened to see this white porcelain wine bowl, I immediately decided to get it regardless of how much gold or silver it cost."
Master Han's face darkened for a moment.
Isn't his senior brother his age?
So if he says that, then all those loving couples who grow old together are just pretending to be in love?
Why bother becoming partners then? Let's just live our own lives.
Wasting time and energy is like trying to fill a basket with water—it's all for nothing. What's the point of all that effort?
ah?
These people are just bored out of their minds!
Song Chunxue sighed, "Xie Zheng didn't even seem to care, but he's so oblivious."
It seems that Master Han, like his face, is still quite young.
The fact that he turned sour because of these issues shows that Master Han is still quite naive when it comes to matters of love and romance.
After all, he and that fox demon hadn't even lived a peaceful and uneventful life together before they were separated by death.
Han Mo's appearance reopened his healed wounds.
He must be a snake who values loyalty and righteousness.
That's rare.
Snakes are inherently lustful, yet he is so innocent.
Thinking of this, she suddenly looked at Lord Zhao.
The eldest brother has been through countless romances, he wouldn't...
Cough. Meeting Master Han's gaze, she quickly looked away, silently chanting Amitabha Buddha in her heart, wishing him boundless blessings. She really had no intention of having any wild thoughts or trying to matchmake someone.
She used to have too much free time and read too many storybooks.
See, this is the downside of being literate: after witnessing the legends of countless unofficial histories and anecdotes, one's mind is hard to keep as pure as it used to be.
"Is a stubborn donkey a dragon?"
Suddenly, Tudan shouted, "Master, you said the stubborn donkey can transform into a dragon?"
“I saw it with my own eyes,” Zhang Chengxuan said irritably, pushing him away. “I’m not deaf, why are you yelling so loudly?”
"Haha, the stubborn donkey is actually a dragon? How is that possible!" Tu Dan'er tugged at Wuji's sleeve. "Let's go take a look."
Wuji was eating fresh grapes when he was pulled into his arms. He hadn't had any for a long time and was really craving them; there was only one left.
"Don't pull me, you have to pay for my grapes." Wuji shook off his hand in annoyance and bent down to pick up the grapes that had rolled away.
"Don't pick them up anymore, I'll give you all my ones, okay?" Tu Dan'er picked up the one he couldn't reach and fed it to himself, then handed him a plate from his table. "Here, come with me to take a look."
Ye Bai was already used to it, and slowly and methodically ate his food with his head down.
"I'm going too, wait for me."
"A stubborn donkey can't be a dragon! How could that be!"
Changfeng and Changyun also ran out.
Ye Bai reluctantly got up, knowing that if he stayed any longer, he might interrupt the elders' conversation.
He had no choice but to carry his belongings and slowly step out the door, squinting in the blazing May sun.
He walked down a few steps and slowly sat down.
It's good to replenish your Yang energy.
The Moon-Accompanying Immortal looked at Song Chunxue and said, "Come forward and speak with me."
"It's Master."
Song Chunxue walked nervously to the Moon-Accompanying Immortal.
"Sit down, let me take your pulse," said the Moon-Companion Immortal. "Don't be nervous, I just want to know why you were able to fight that brat Qingxuan for so long."
Song Chunxue thought to herself, "No way."
He must have wanted to find out about her physical condition because of Zhang Cheng's lawsuit.
Song Chunxue stretched out her arm, anxiously waiting for her master to take her pulse.
Everyone looked at Song Chunxue with curiosity, barely saying a word.
The Moon-Accompanying Immortal closed his eyes, stroked his beard, and then stretched out his hand, gesturing for her to switch to the other hand.
Song Chunxue became even more uneasy, not daring to look around.
She didn't want her master to take her pulse in front of everyone.
The moon-accompanying immortal remained silent for a long time, his eyes lowered.
Then, he released Song Chunxue's arm and said, "Xie Zheng, come here."
Xie Zheng got up and sat in the seat that Song Chunxue had just sat in, obediently placing his hands on the table.
Everyone held their breath, intently waiting for the Moon-Accompanying Immortal's reaction.
The Moon-Accompanying Immortal frowned slightly, a half-smile playing on his lips, but not very obvious.
It made the others extremely anxious.
"Come here, let me take a look," Master Han said in the tone of an elder to a junior. "We've never been Daoist partners, so I don't know if his situation has any impact on this."
Song Chunxue stood still. "Let's forget it. I'm perfectly fine."
She's being so secretive because she doesn't want to uncover any secrets that everyone will find out.
