She should have become his master; that would have been a perfect match for him.
But in front of everyone, and even after the sect leader tacitly approved her taking him as a disciple, she rejected him indifferently, as if in her heart, his talent was completely unmoving to her.
That disdain and contempt were a thorn in his heart, making him feel that his dignity had been trampled on. Even though his current master was very good to him, responsive to his every need, and spent a lot of resources to cultivate him, he could never forget Lingxiao Daozun. He always wondered if Lingxiao Daozun was his master, then he could have received more.
Why won't you accept him?
The anger hidden in Yue Xizhi's heart vanished when he saw the smile on Lingxiao Daozun's cold and beautiful face.
It was as if ice and fire were blended together, and coolness and gentleness were harmoniously intertwined, filling her with a captivating beauty that made it impossible to look away.
Therefore, his gaze carried a hint of arrogance.
Ling'er's loud rebuke, though it slightly annoyed him for interrupting this pleasant moment, made him happy again after seeing Lingxiao Daozun's gaze fall upon him.
He held the jade slip that Shen Wangshu had tossed into his hand, his eyes shining brightly, his appearance stunning and extraordinary.
"Take this to the Enforcement Hall to receive your punishment. Do you know what crime you committed by being loud and disrespectful in front of me and Xi Wu?" Shen Wangshu wouldn't slap Yue Xizhi's face with her own hands. She simply looked coldly at Yue Xizhi, who seemed struck by lightning, and watched the young man look up at her with disbelief. She then stroked the fox's soft fur and said casually, "Even if you are a genius, you should still abide by the sect's rules. Besides, what is a genius? Do you think you're so great?"
Her cold humiliation, right in front of Yue Xizhi, made him feel as if he were back on the day he accepted her as his disciple, when she spoke to him with the same disdainful expression.
His face turned pale instantly.
The passionate emotions suddenly turned cold.
He was currently at the height of his popularity, surrounded and flattered by his fellow disciples. However, if he were punished by Lingxiao Daozun and sent to the Enforcement Hall, he would lose all face.
Why was he sent to the Hall of Law Enforcement?
Even if the Lingxiao Daozun personally punished him, he wouldn't be made to lose face like this.
She disdained to punish him, so she sent him to the Hall of Law Enforcement, making it even more apparent that he was insignificant in her eyes.
"Why doesn't the Daoist Master punish his disciple immediately?!" Yue Xizhi couldn't help but ask loudly.
"You dare to lay a hand on me, the Daoist Master?" This arrogant and disdainful voice descended from the clouds and settled in Yue Xizhi's heart.
Daoist Xiwu silently covered his eyes, then couldn't help but chuckle.
He knew that Lingxiao Daozun's mouth never knew the meaning of leaving room for virtue.
But the young man below, who had been so spirited just moments before, now revealed a look of grief and indignation. His eyes were bloodshot, and the spirit sword on his back emitted a series of sword cries, seemingly announcing the anger in its master's heart.
He stared intently at the woman, who had regained her icy demeanor, watching a fluffy little creature roll around happily in her arms, its large, fluffy tail wagging like a windmill. The woman's cold eyes clearly held a hint of indulgence towards the fox. He couldn't help but ask loudly, "This disciple doesn't understand, what is it that displeases the Daoist Master?!"
"Add another crime when you go to the Hall of Enforcement." Shen Wangshu waved his sleeve and disappeared into the clouds in the blink of an eye.
Her clothes fluttered gracefully as she soared through the air, yet she exuded an arrogance and imposing aura unlike that of ordinary female cultivators.
Xi Wu Daojun looked at the boy standing on the ground, head tilted back, his face showing resentment. He saw that the boy was staring quietly in the direction Shen Wangshu had left, even forgetting the girl Ling'er in his arms. Thinking of Shen Wangshu's indifference towards the boy, he felt a little unkind, but also felt very comfortable.
Without even glancing at Ling'er, who was defiantly hugging Yue Xizhi, he helplessly caught up with Shen Wangshu ahead, walked through the air, and sighed gracefully, "This kid is indeed exceptionally talented. If he doesn't die prematurely, he will probably be another Nascent Soul cultivator a hundred years from now. Why do you already want to make an enemy of him?"
Once Yue Xizhi grows up, how could he not seek revenge?
"Then you'll have to pray he doesn't die young so he can come after me," Shen Wangshu said coldly.
“I’m concerned about you, Junior Sister.” Daoist Xiwu paused, then smiled, “in the name of your elder brother.”
Shen Wangshu gave the self-satisfied young man a cold look and then looked away.
After a long silence, she said coldly, "To repay evil with kindness, you are truly a saint."
"If that girl likes him, so be it." He wasn't going to cuckold Xi Wu Dao Jun anyway, so he didn't bother to threaten Yue Xi Zhi.
Otherwise, if Ling'er were to become Xi Wu's Daoist partner, he would definitely chop her into dumpling filling.
Shen Wangshu admired his open-mindedness. Her lips twitched as she glanced at Xi Wu's innocent face, and thinking of Yue Xizhi's sharp and arrogant demeanor just now, she curled her own lips into a smile.
"His cultivation level is increasing very quickly." In the blink of an eye, Yue Xizhi was already able to begin his attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
When he joined the sect, he was just a Qi Refining stage disciple with the lowest strength. But in just a few days, he began to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage. No wonder the cultivators in the sect regarded Yue Xizhi as a future great cultivator.
However, Shen Wangshu understood even more clearly that the faster one's cultivation level increased, the more unstable one's foundation would become. If the foundation is not solid, cultivating day after day on this unstable foundation may not be noticeable in the early stages of cultivation, but as Yue Xizhi's cultivation level increased, it would become increasingly precarious. Once his cultivation collapsed, even a deity could not save him.
