Someone in love? ! ! Cheng Nan's face turned pale in an instant. He looked at Li Shiyin. Didn't she always like him? How could she change her mind after only being out for half a year? !
He felt as if the sky had fallen, and he murmured, "No, no, absolutely impossible..."
Cheng Lixue was already shrewd enough, but when he saw Cheng Nan's look, he couldn't control his facial expression, and his old eyes stared at the young and energetic girl.
But before he could say anything, the immortal monk next to him stood up and shouted at Li Shiyin, "Bear all the consequences? Can you afford it?"
"It's just a verbal marriage that has not yet taken effect. What's there to be afraid of?" Facing this cultivator whose cultivation level fluctuates around the Golden Core Stage, Li Shiyin was not afraid and asked in a clear and logical manner.
"You have destroyed my disciple's Taoist heart and foundation. How can you take responsibility for this?!" It turned out to be Master Cheng Nan.
Li Shiyin said expressionlessly, "If his heart is so easily corrupted, then he will be in trouble sooner or later. My suggestion is..."
She looked at Cheng Nan, "I hope you don't continue practicing."
It just so happened that she had been troubled by the meaning of spiritual practice these days, and whatever she said came from her heart.
"What a sharp-tongued girl!" Master Cheng Nan was so angry that he pointed at Li Shiyin and asked, "Which sect are you from?"
"Daojianmen."
Master Cheng Nan's momentum faltered. He originally thought that Li Shiyin was a disciple of a small sect, but he didn't expect it to be a sect as big as Daojianmen.
He continued to ask: "Who is your master?!"
"The head of Danfeng." Li Shiyin had learned her lesson. She knew that no one would know Qin Ran, but the identity of the head of Daojianmen was very impressive.
Sure enough, when the word "First Master" came out, Master Cheng Nan was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a fluke in his heart: "First Master? Are you a menial disciple or an outer disciple?"
"Personal disciple."
Master Cheng Nan was completely stunned, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He knew that he had embarrassed himself greatly, especially in front of the parents of his new apprentice. He stole a glance at the reactions of the other people in the room. Although none of them said anything, the expressions on their faces were very interesting.
For a moment, his cheeks felt hot and he felt angry in his heart. He was only in the Foundation Establishment Stage and yet he was so embarrassed.
"Personal disciple?" He said coldly, "So what if I am a personal disciple?!"
He secretly mobilized his magic power and raised his hand towards Li Shiyin...
"You don't know how high the heaven is or how deep the earth is. You are not fit to continue practicing like this! I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your master..."
Once the spell is formed, it must be activated...
But at this moment, he suddenly felt an inexplicable stab in the old wound on his chest. He looked up at Li Shiyin and found that Li Shiyin's eyes were slightly condensed, with a sharp sword energy brewing in her eyes, and she was looking at his chest.
At this moment, a sense of life and death crisis appeared in his heart. He had a vague feeling that if he took action, he would die.
This feeling is so strong!
So the magic remained in his hands and was not cast.
Sword energy? He soon realized another thing, that Li Shiyin had sword energy!
So he carefully retracted the spell that was about to take shape, and calmed the surging magic power in his body bit by bit. The tense and terrifying atmosphere in the room disappeared silently.
A smile reappeared on his face... It's not shameful to survive in the world of cultivation; you have to kneel when you need to, and kneel properly and beautifully.
He smiled and asked Li Shiyin: "What is your specific level of cultivation?"
He could roughly infer what level of cultivation Li Shiyin was at, but he had to find a way out! If others didn't find a way, he would find one himself. This was the old senior in the cultivation world.
"Sir... Your Excellency?" Cheng Nan looked at his master, unable to believe it. What kind of address was this?
"It's only the middle stage of foundation building." Li Shiyin told the truth.
In fact, the realm of cultivation has long ceased to matter to Li Shiyin. You know, even with her master's wretched personality, he could easily defeat a Jindan stage cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage; and Bai Ruoxi and Su Changqing were even more powerful, with Su Changqing being able to fight a Spirit Severing stage cultivator at the Jindan stage.
The realm of cultivation is a constraint for ordinary cultivators, and she gradually understood this truth.
At this moment, she was facing Master Cheng Nan. At this distance, she was confident that Feixian Wenda would allow her to easily cut open this person's Dantian.
Upon hearing that Li Shiyin was really in the middle stage of foundation building, Master Cheng Nan didn't know what to say for a moment.
Should we say that he reached the middle stage of foundation building in half a year? Or should we say that he comprehended the sword energy after practicing for half a year? Or should we say that he felt that he could not win even though he was only in the middle stage of foundation building?
After a long silence, he smiled and said, "Young people are to be feared," and then sat down.
Cheng Nan looked at his master, then at Li Shiyin.
The sword-like edge in those beautiful eyes and the confidence on that pretty face, he realized what level Li Shiyin was at. Those geniuses in the sect, those disciples with noses on their foreheads, were probably at the same level.
But for some reason, he felt it was very reasonable and it was consistent with the Li Shiyin he remembered.
Seeing that Master Cheng Nan was scared, retreated and sat down, although there was no specific battle, the turbulent momentum change in the room still allowed an old fox like Cheng Lixue to figure out the situation at the first time.
He took a deep look at Li Shiyin, then quickly laughed:
"It is indeed just a verbal agreement of the older generation. If you young people don't like it and have no intention in that regard, then we won't force it. Besides, you grew up together. Even if you don't get married, you are still very good friends. Not brother and sister, but better than brother and sister. Why don't you call each other brother and sister from now on?"
Cheng Nan was of course extremely unwilling to do so, but he was powerless to change anything, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.
Li Shiyin looked at Cheng Nan, then at his master, and took out three bottles of pills from the Qiankun bag at his waist. He handed them to Cheng Nan and said, "I'm sorry for this. These three bottles of pills are a top-grade Soul Gathering Pill, a top-grade Dragon Elephant Pill, and a mid-grade Dust Reducing Pill. They are a small compensation."
The first two kinds of elixirs were left by Qin Ran for her own use, and their quality was incredibly high; the last kind of elixir was used for forming a pill, and Qin Ran kept it for her to use as a backup in case of any accidents.
She continued, "I will make you another promise. If you need help in the future, you can come to Daojianmen Danfeng to find me."
She was sincere enough. Those who knew the business, such as Master Cheng Nan, stared at the pill in Li Shiyin's hand with their eyes wide open, and frantically motioned to Cheng Nan to take it.
But at this time, Cheng Nan was still immersed in the state of heartbreak and the collapse of his worldview due to "his wife's infidelity", and he ignored Li Shiyin.
In the end, it was his master who took the pill from Li Shiyin's hand and said with a smile, "I am Liu Mo, the elder deacon of Yuntian Sect. My disciple is ignorant, so I will accept the pill for him. That's all about your business."
Li Shiyin looked at him, then at Cheng Nan. After a long moment of hesitation, she said, "The cultivation world is not suitable for you. With your personality, it's better for you to get down the mountain as soon as possible."
If it weren't for the arranged marriage, her relationship with Cheng Nan would be that of a big sister and a little follower. Although Cheng Nan is older than her, it doesn't stop her from treating him as her younger brother.
She quoted her master's words to Cheng Nan: "The cultivation world is very dark and dangerous. You must be more careful in the future."
In the end, Cheng Nan stopped talking to Li Shiyin and left the Li Mansion with Cheng Lixue and his master.
Li Shiyin saw him off and watched their team disappear into the street. She sighed in her heart, wondering if she would ever see Cheng Nan again.
Not everyone is as lucky as her. Most monks who enter the world of cultivation have to pay a price; the monks who survive are those whose price is not their lives.
As she thought about it, Li Shiyin's face suddenly turned red. She realized something, and it seemed that she had paid a price...
