"Unless you reconnect with your junior brother, your emotions won't fluctuate much."
It's as if he's just an ordinary junior brother who met with misfortune. Although you're saddened by his death, you wouldn't be tempted to die for him.
Master thought Junior Brother was truly dead, and that you would never feel any emotion towards him again. But no one expected that Junior Brother wasn't dead, and that he would take you with him.
"Senior brother, you knew all of this, didn't you?"
Xuwen lowered his head in remorse: "I also thought Junior Brother was dead. I didn't want you to die either. We've lived together for so many years, I've long regarded you as... as my sister. Of course I didn't want to see you die."
He admitted that he had different feelings for his junior sister, but he would never force her if she didn't like him. He had long regarded her as family, and even if she didn't want to marry him or like him, he only hoped that she would be safe and healthy.
"Senior brother, can you take me with you? Ah Zhao must be very worried because he can't find me."
Xuwen sighed and shook his head: "I'm sorry, junior sister. This is Master's barrier. No one but him can break it."
"I understand, thank you for telling me all this, senior brother." After saying that, Wan Ge stood up.
"Junior Sister, what are you going to do?"
"Since I can't get out, I can only focus on my cultivation."
Seeing that she seemed to have come to terms with it, Xuwen reached out and patted his shoulder: "Perhaps Master just doesn't want you to take risks. Don't think too much about it. If I have the chance, I will go and check on your junior brother."
At this moment, a voice came from behind Xuwen: "You can't go anywhere. He's not your junior brother anymore. He beat you so badly last time, haven't you learned your lesson?"
Wan Ge looked behind Xu Wen. The person who came was the sect leader, who was also Xu Wen's father.
"What do you mean by being beaten last time?" Wan Ge asked, looking at Xu Wen in front of her.
Xuwen looked at Wange again: "I'm sorry, junior sister. I heard that you were arrested. I wanted to rescue you, but I didn't expect the other party to be junior brother."
Because of some previous conflicts with my junior brother, I fought with him and got a few injuries, but I'm fine.
I want to apologize to you because if it weren't for my master and my father, we might not have known where you were.
Wan Ge shook her head: "It has nothing to do with you. If Master wants to find me, he will naturally be able to find me."
Xuwen opened his mouth but didn't say anything. What he really wanted to say was that if he hadn't told his father, his father wouldn't have known that his junior brother was still alive, wouldn't have gone to find his master, and his master wouldn't have found out about this so quickly. Perhaps his junior sister wouldn't be here now.
He dared not say it, fearing his junior sister would hate him even more. Because of his junior brother's fall into the demon's den, his junior sister had been unwilling to see him for a long time. He had been hated once before, and he did not want to be hated again.
Countless times he wondered if he had died back then, would he have been the one forever remaining in his mind's thoughts?
There are no "what ifs"...
…
The sect leader stood in front of Wan Ge, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made a very important decision before speaking: "Wan Ge, I have treated you like my own daughter all these years. There are some things I want to talk to you about in private."
“Father!” Xuwen immediately grabbed his father’s sleeve and shook his head as if to tell him not to say anything.
"Wen'er, what time is it? Don't you want your father to say it?" The sect leader looked very distressed for him.
Finally, he sighed heavily, looked at Wan Ge, and said, "Originally, I wanted to talk to you privately, but now there's nothing wrong with saying it in front of both of you."
Ge'er, I did have my own selfish reasons for sending you to your master's sect. You have a pure wood spirit root, which complements your senior brother. I sent you here so that you two could develop a relationship.
I know this is despicable, but your senior brother's spiritual root was damaged when he was young. I thought I had repaired it, but after he reached the Foundation Establishment stage, it was difficult for him to make further progress because of the damage to his spiritual root.
This is why your senior brother hasn't made much progress over the years; only your pure wood spirit root can heal him. I hope you two can become Daoist partners.”
"Father!" Xu Wen's face instantly turned cold.
Then he immediately turned back to look at Wan Ge in front of him: "Junior sister, you don't need to care about what my father said. Everyone has their own destiny. My fate is already like this, so you don't need to feel any burden. You saved my life back then, so you don't owe me anything."
The sect leader wished he could immediately cover his son's mouth. Looking at Wan Ge in front of him, he said again, "Wan Ge, you and your senior brother have had such a long relationship. Do you really want to watch him die? If he continues to stagnate, he won't live much longer."
After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, one has a lifespan of at least five hundred years, but for cultivators, five hundred years is really nothing.
Xuwen shook his head at Wange, indicating that she didn't need to listen to what her father was saying.
Just then, another voice came from the side: "I have found a way to deal with Wen'er's damaged spiritual root. I will hand it over to the sect leader later. Ge'er does not need to marry someone she does not like."
Sword Master Mu Yun suddenly appeared in front of them, and the sect leader was also stunned for a moment. In fact, he wanted the two of them to get married, not only to help his son repair his spiritual root, although he had been searching for a way to repair spiritual roots for many years.
Although he didn't understand why Sword Master Mu Yun would suddenly interrupt their conversation, since the other party had already said that, they could only awkwardly reply with a smile, "In that case, thank you very much, Sword Master."
