Chapter 499 Yun Yi and Xiao Xian
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Qiuqian walked towards Zhu Yichen who was standing at the stern.
He stared at the sea in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Xu Qiuqian walked up to him.
"What are you thinking about?"
"I'm wondering where Daoist Master Ziqiu is now."
"I know."
"Well... you know?!" Zhu Yichen looked at her suddenly, "Where is he?"
Xu Qiuqian's gaze fell on the sea.
"It's right down here."
Zhu Yichen was stunned.
"You mean, he's at the bottom of the ocean?"
"Yes, what do you want to do?" After a pause, she continued, "If you want to find him now, I can show you the way."
After all, the sea is huge, and if Zhu Yichen were to search for it by himself, it would probably take him a long time.
The most crucial issue is that if Xu Qiuqian wants to show him the way, then they cannot go back to Jiangyang Island for the time being, and everyone has to accompany him.
It's impossible to buy another cloud ship from the Void Mall, right? The points spent on this cloud ship are quite expensive, and she can't bear to buy another one.
Hearing this, Zhu Yichen was silent for a long time.
"No need." He said softly, "Let's go back and talk about it first. This is my business."
He didn't want his own affairs to delay everyone's trip.
Xu Qiuqian patted Zhu Yichen on the shoulder.
"You are my disciple, so your affairs are naturally my affairs. Moreover, even if Dao Zun Zi Qiu only has a trace of soul left, you may not be his opponent. Don't worry, I will come with you. Sooner or later, he will return the luck he stole."
Zhu Yichen looked at her.
"Thank you, Master."
Xu Qiuqian raised an eyebrow: "What are you thanking me for? You already called me Master, isn't it natural for a master to have a disciple? Why are you suddenly being so hypocritical? It's unlike you to show the same stubbornness you showed when you insisted on recognizing me as your Master!"
"Master, don't mention it!" Zhu Yichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and the gloom on his face dissipated.
Hearing Xu Qiuqian's words, he couldn't help but think of the beginning.
At that time, he had not yet been reborn, but he relied on his intuition to think that Xu Qiuqian was stronger than him. Even though Xu Qiuqian's cultivation was lower than his at the time, he still insisted on asking her to accept him as his disciple.
For some reason, Xu Qiuqian really agreed to him.
At that time, he thought the other party was moved by his sincerity, but now he thought that maybe it was just a casual remark and she didn't really recognize him.
But he didn't expect that after he was reborn, due to many reasons, he did not agree to sever ties with her. At that time, he recognized her as his master as a joke, but now he acknowledged this master from the bottom of his heart and regarded her as his only master.
"In fact, before I became your disciple, Daoist Master Zi Qiu wanted to take me in as his disciple."
"You didn't agree?"
Zhu Yichen shook his head.
Xu Qiuqian couldn't help but wonder: "He is a Taoist master, why doesn't he agree?"
"I don't know why, I just feel that he shouldn't be my master."
“…”
No wonder he is God’s favorite.
Or perhaps Zhu Yichen subconsciously felt that there was something wrong with Taoist Zi Qiu at that time, so he did not agree, although he did not know why Taoist Zi Qiu wanted to accept him as a disciple and what his purpose was.
"Now that I think about it, maybe it was to meet you, Master, and accept you as my master."
Xu Qiuqian clicked his tongue twice.
"Good boy, now you have learned how to flatter, right? Come to think of it, I haven't had a competition with you for quite a while to see if you have made any progress. This ship is very big, how about we have a competition? Let me see if you have improved."
"No problem, I will definitely beat Master this time!"
“You can try!”
Then, everyone found that master Xu Qiuqian and apprentice Zhu Yichen started fighting while talking, but it seemed like it was just a competition, so everyone was not worried, but watched the competition from the side.
Xiaoxian was the first to see Xu Qiuqian take action.
He watched Xu Qiuqian's every move.
After a while, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Yun Yi who was not far away, and walked over.
Yun Yi noticed his approach, glanced at him, and then looked away.
Xiaoxian walked over and asked, "How did you know her?"
Yun Yi hesitated for a moment, but still spoke.
From Sister Qiu Qian's attitude towards Xiaoxian, he knew that Xiaoxian was a trustworthy person and would probably do things for Sister Qiu Qian in the future.
In that case, we’ll all be one family from now on.
As we are a family, he naturally has a better attitude.
"How come you, a divine beast, are in such a miserable state?" Xiaoxian looked curious, "Where are your clan beasts? Where are your brothers, sisters, and parents?"
Yun Yi lowered his eyes: "They never cared about me."
So when Xu Qiuqian asked him, he also said that he didn't want to see them again.
"Well, that's certainly what she would do. She's a... very kind person. I rarely meet such monks."
When those monks saw it, they would only think of using it or trying to take it as a spiritual pet. That was why he was injured and fled all the way to Xiyue Continent, and finally fainted on Jedi Island.
Later, he met his real master, the Immortal Lord from Heaven.
He then understood that not everyone was like those greedy cultivators. When he proposed to become the spiritual pet of the Lord of Heaven, the Lord of Heaven actually refused. At that time, he was extremely confident that the Lord of Heaven would definitely agree to him.
"What about you?" Yun Yi looked at Xiao Xian, "How did you get to know Sister Qiu Qian?"
Xiaoxian briefly explained it.
"...If it wasn't for the Celestial Lord, and I was asked to choose someone to be my master, I would definitely choose her."
After saying that, he felt the cold gaze coming from Yun Yi. He smiled, and his tender and chubby face was filled with flesh, looking very cute. His voice was also childish, but the words he said were in contrast.
"Don't worry, I already have a master, so I won't recognize her as my master."
As soon as he finished speaking, the cold gaze disappeared.
He couldn't help but shake his head in his heart.
He could see that Xu Qiuqian's spiritual roots were not low. With her strength, more and more spiritual beasts would want to recognize her as their master in the future. The possessiveness of this divine beast was really... not like that of an animal.
"Even if you want to claim her as your master, I won't stop you."
Xiaoxian was startled and looked at Yunyi in surprise.
Yun Yi had a sour expression.
"Of course I don't want her to take in any more spiritual pets or divine pets, but I also know that the more pets she takes in, the stronger and safer she will be. If I were as powerful as you, maybe I would stop her, but I don't. I'm a loser and I still need her to protect me and hold me back everywhere. How dare I make such a request? As long as she... my master is safe, I can do anything."
He spoke the last sentence very softly, but Xiaoxian still heard it clearly.
He reached out and tugged at Yun Yi's sleeve.
Seeing Yun Yi looking down at him, he squinted his eyes and smiled.
"What a coincidence, me too."
But his master is no longer here, and all he has to do is complete what his master wants done.
Yun Yi stared at him, and after a moment, he also laughed.
