Li Nan held the bottle of medicine, his hands trembling, and tears of excitement almost fell from his eyes.
Master has come to find him! Master has come to find him!
He knew it; his master still cared about him.
His master once disregarded worldly opinions and boldly offered himself to him.
How could I possibly treat him like this now?!
Sure enough, Master's previous punishments were just for show; otherwise, why wouldn't he have let the Discipline Hall give him four hundred lashes at once?
Master loves him!
He could no longer hesitate; he had to explain things clearly to his master tonight!
… …
After finishing her dinner, Si Jin returned to Qing Jin Villa around 9 PM.
Hiding in the corner, Li Nan, who was waiting for him to return, immediately became excited and limped towards him.
To everyone's surprise, before they could take two steps, they were trapped in a corner by a barrier.
He tried to break free, but he couldn't.
Just as he was sweating profusely with anxiety, he saw Jun Linyuan appear in front of his master.
The tall apprentice grabbed Si Jin's hands and pinned him against the wall in two steps.
A deep kiss.
She only embraced her master and pushed open the palace door after she had driven him to the point of weakness.
Before entering the hall, Jun Linyuan glanced in Li Nan's direction and gave him a meaningful smile.
This shattered all of Li Nan's illusions about his master.
The master originally belonged to him!
That piece of trash isn't worthy of even thinking about him!
… …
Inside the barrier, Li Nan was struck dumb.
They stood there, stunned, unable to react for a long time!
Master and Jun Linyuan... have already...
How could this be? How could Master, such a noble and aloof person, take a fancy to Jun Linyuan, that bastard of unknown origin?!
Li Nan was trembling with rage. He used all his strength to ram the barrier repeatedly, trying to break free of this cage.
However, his cultivation level was greatly reduced, making him too weak to contend with Jun Linyuan.
No matter what they did, they couldn't break free of the barrier and could only stand there in the cold wind all night.
Finally, the wind made his already weak body sick again, and he almost didn't recover when he received the fifty lashes the next day.
On his deathbed, his mind was filled with thoughts of his master.
The Master's usual care for him gradually came to light.
When he was sick, it was his master who brought him hot porridge. His master clumsily fed him and even burned his own hand in the process.
When he made a mistake, his master would always come to comfort him, give him some medicine after he was punished, and even awkwardly plead for him in the disciplinary hall.
When he was confused, it was his master who patiently guided him...
All the good things about his master flooded his mind at once. Li Nan reached out to hug his master, but Jun Linyuan suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Jun Linyuan smiled and stabbed him in the heart, causing him to bleed profusely, ruthlessly stealing all the kindness his master had shown him!
It gripped his heart, making him feel both sore and aching, and he almost shed tears.
"Master..."
"Master...don't go..."
"Master!!!"
Li Nan suddenly sat up, covered in sweat, and found himself lying in Si Yu's Danxin Palace.
Si Yu sat smiling at the head of his bed. Seeing that he was awake, he chuckled softly:
"Awake? How was your brush with death?"
Li Nan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, saying, "Immortal Lord Si Yu, how did I get here?"
"You fainted in the Discipline Hall and almost lost your life, so you were brought here."
Si Yu laughed and said, "Having a nightmare? You're utterly disappointed in your master?"
Li Nan wiped the sweat from his brow with his wide sleeve, sat up from the couch, and said alertly:
"What does the Immortal Lord mean?"
"What I mean is, your master has a Heavenly Spiritual Root with all five elements. The power of a Heavenly Spiritual Root isn't only obtained through dual cultivation; you can also directly pluck his spiritual root and put it into a pill furnace for refining..."
Li Nan frowned deeply: "You mean..."
Si Yu: "What I mean is, if you want to improve your cultivation, you don't necessarily have to go to the trouble of pleasing your annoying master. You can cooperate with me, and we can work together..."
Li Nan: "So, you want me to help you remove your master's spiritual root?"
