Chapter 113: The Fool
"Master!" Ma Hongyu suddenly stood in front of Ye Cheng, his voice trembling. "My disciple is introverted and doesn't understand the ways of the world. Master, I will discipline him strictly from now on and will never let him make the same mistake again."
Zhao Wuji's expression was unpredictable.
Ma Hongyu knelt down directly.
Ye Cheng was stunned and knelt down as well.
He was even a little confused, not knowing why his master suddenly said this.
"Hongyu." Zhao Wuji showed a faint smile: "Who do you think I am? Don't worry, I just want to talk to Ye Cheng. Get up quickly, don't let others laugh at you."
Ma Hongyu didn't believe it, but since Zhao Wuji said so, he could only pull Ye Cheng up.
"Master," Ma Hongyu said hesitantly, "My disciple is a bit of a blockhead. If you have any instructions, it's the same as telling me. When I return, I will follow Master's instructions and discipline him properly."
Zhao Wuji glanced at him and said, "Nothing, just a few words."
Having said that, Ma Hongyu was at his wit's end. He could only pray silently that Zhao Wuji would show mercy to Ye Cheng, considering his hard work over the years, even though he had no merit.
"Ye Cheng." Zhao Wuji looked at Ye Cheng again.
Ye Cheng didn't think there was anything wrong with it and walked up obediently.
Zhao Wuji asked him, "What do you think of Yunjin?"
Ye Cheng thought about it carefully and said, "She's a planting genius. If possible, I'd like to discuss it with her."
Ma Hongyu: “…”
He broke out in a cold sweat.
He raised his apprentice so simply that it made people want to speak for him.
Ye Cheng was very honest. Zhao Wuji's expression darkened slightly, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his lips: "Good. You are indeed obsessed with planting techniques. You are a rare pure person. I like people like you."
"Come, this jade pendant is for you. You can wear it with you. It is the same as Danxia's before. It is a defensive magic weapon that can keep you safe." Zhao Wuji said in a gentle voice.
Ye Cheng was flattered to accept it and quickly put it around his waist.
Ma Hongyu was also a little surprised.
Based on his understanding of the headmaster, Ye Cheng's previous initiative to admit defeat would definitely make him furious.
As a result, not only was there no punishment, but rewards were given instead. Is this the style of the headmaster?
"Okay, you guys can go back now. In the future, cultivate the spiritual fields well, so that others can see the abilities of you two masters and disciples." Zhao Wuji said with a smile.
Ma Hongyu hurriedly pulled Ye Cheng and said, "Thank you, Master."
Zhao Wuji watched the two of them leave and then sneered.
How can someone who makes him unhappy still want to live?
He had imbued the jade pendant with a strange poison. Wearing it for a long time would cause death within a month. The death itself was peaceful, with no signs of poisoning.
By then, after such a long time, no one would have guessed that this matter was related to tonight's meeting.
Although Ye Cheng has some talent in planting, isn't there a shortage of talented people in this world of cultivating immortals?
Since he admires Yunjin so much, he should go underground and wait for Yunjin first!
The candlelight flickered, making Zhao Wuji's face flicker.
Outside.
Ma Hongyu looked at Ye Cheng and sighed: "I think we have passed this level. Disciple, from now on you should stay in the spiritual field and don't go out easily."
"Yes." Ye Cheng responded directly.
He didn't want to go out in the first place.
He prefers to get along with these spiritual plants rather than humans.
Ma Hongyu nodded, and the master and disciple returned to the spiritual field.
A small cave was built deep in the spiritual field, which was the residence of the two.
"Master, I'm going to take a look at the spiritual plants." Ye Cheng said, and went to the spiritual field again.
Ma Hongyu looked at his back and sighed again.
He is really worried.
His disciple is too naive. I can barely protect him when I am around.
If I am gone, what will he do...
He just said that this hurdle has been passed, and he didn't want Ye Cheng to worry.
But considering the master's personality, can he really pass this hurdle?
He had no confidence at all.
That night, Ma Hongyu thought a lot, but in the end he just sighed.
The next day.
It was just dawn.
Gu Jinghong is here again.
As usual, he did nothing but talk nonsense to some plants and looked very mentally unstable.
Ma Hongyu was no longer surprised by this and just pretended that Gu Jinghong didn't exist.
Ye Cheng had never paid any attention to Gu Jinghong before, but this time, he walked over and took the initiative to ask, "Why didn't Junior Sister Yun come? I later heard about her improvements to planting techniques, which amazed me. It's a pity that I didn't have the honor of seeing it."
Gu Jinghong raised his eyes and looked at Ye Cheng with a hint of vigilance in his eyes: "The master is busy and has no time to come."
Ye Cheng said seriously, "Improvement in planting requires communication. I actually have some experience. If you don't mind, I can..."
"Ye Cheng! Come here!" Ma Hongyu shouted immediately.
He was a little frightened when he heard it.
Does his disciple feel that his life is too long?
At this time, she was still involved with Yun Jin, so Zhao Wuji had to take action.
Ye Cheng responded and said hurriedly: "The art of planting is full of mysteries. It would be a wonderful thing if we could have another person to accompany us."
After saying that, he went to Ma Hongyu.
"Master." Ye Cheng waited for Ma Hongyu's instructions.
Ma Hongyu opened and closed his mouth, then said weakly, "From now on, you are not allowed to meet Yun Jin."
Ye Cheng was a little puzzled: "Why?"
Ma Hongyu gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you know that the master hates her to the core? If you continue to associate with her, even I can't protect you! Do you think the master gave you the jade pendant as a compliment? He is warning you to work hard for him in the future!"
There is actually this deeper meaning.
Ye Cheng suddenly realized.
He hurried to find Gu Jinghong: "Junior Sister Yun, please don't come for the time being. I will discuss my experience with her after the Sect Leader calms down."
Gu Jinghong: “…”
Could he kill the fool in front of him with just one slap?
Gu Jinghong's eyes moved slightly, and he saw the jade pendant on Ye Cheng's waist: "Is this a gift from the headmaster?"
Ye Cheng had not worn this before, but it appeared overnight.
Moreover, this jade pendant and Ye Danxia's were exactly the same in appearance. Gu Jinghong made a casual guess.
"Yes." Ye Cheng agreed directly: "The headmaster is so good to me, he doesn't like Junior Sister Yun, so I can't meet Junior Sister Yun for the time being."
The corners of Gu Jinghong's lips twitched.
He now admires Ma Hongyu very much. How did he train such a disciple?
"I understand." Gu Jinghong responded with gritted teeth.
He continued to complete the task of communicating with the spiritual plants, and only returned to Tianjian Peak when the time was almost up.
Gu Jinghong simply replied to Yun Jin, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Master, there is one more thing."
"You say." Yun Jin took out a pill and continued to practice while taking drugs.
The corners of Gu Jinghong's lips twitched.
He just saw it clearly.
What does the master eat?
Perfect level pill?
The aura is similar to that of Huan Yuan Dan? !
Gu Jinghong suddenly forgot what he wanted to say and couldn't help but said, "Master, this pill is..."
"Huan Yuan Dan." Yun Jin looked unconcerned. "Didn't I give it to you when you were seriously injured before?"
Gu Jinghong's lips trembled.
Yuanyuan Pill...
Isn’t it used to treat the meridians and dantian?
Master, what happened?
Gu Jinghong suddenly felt a panic in his heart, and he was about to ask for details.
Yun Jin poured out another ten or so and put them into her mouth in one breath like candy beans.
Gu Jinghong: “???”
