Chapter 150: Apprentice vs. Immortal (27)
He put away his bamboo flute and sat next to Chu Junhe. Suddenly he remembered something very important and excitedly held Chu Junhe's hand.
Chu Junhe was startled by his sudden action. He felt a warm touch on the back of his hand, but he had no time to care. He asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Xu Jinxiao blinked her bright fox eyes at him, "Master, is your birthday coming soon?"
Chu Junhe was stunned, immediately recalled, and nodded hesitantly.
"Which day exactly?"
When Xu Jinxiao asked further, he remembered that this matter was mentioned in the plot.
Chu Junhe frowned slightly. He had hardly ever celebrated his birthday, so he couldn't remember it clearly. However, under Xu Jinxiao's expectant gaze, he could only try hard to search for memories from long ago.
He pondered for a while, then hesitantly gave a date, "It seems to be the day after tomorrow."
Xu Jinxiao was silent. His wife really didn't know either. Since neither of them knew, they would just go with the date his wife said.
It's just to make his wife happy.
Thinking of this, he smiled brightly, "Okay, disciple understands."
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
Chu Junhe's phoenix eyes were full of doubts. Most immortal cultivators have a much longer lifespan than mortals. The birthday that mortals value is not important to them, and is being increasingly ignored nowadays.
Xu Jinxiao's eyes were filled with affection, "Of course I want to give Master a surprise."
Chu Junhe laughed when he heard this, "Is it still a surprise now that it's been said?"
Xu Jinxiao smiled mysteriously and winked at him cunningly, "The day hasn't come yet, how can Master know there won't be a surprise?"
Chu Junhe smiled and shook his head, "Then I will wait and see what kind of surprise you bring to me."
This time, Xu Jinxiao just smiled and said nothing, keeping a mysterious air.
"Go and practice with your fellow apprentices. They must have missed you."
Chu Junhe's ears turned red and he took Xu Jinxiao's hand away from his.
Xu Jinxiao took his hand and held it close to his face, blinking her fox eyes filled with mist.
"Master, I just came back from the secret realm. Can you bear to let me go out to practice at this time?"
Chu Junhe's pupils shrank, and his palm was close to the young man's handsome profile. The warm temperature was transmitted from his palm to his heart.
He felt as if he was burned and quickly withdrew his hand, but he never expected that Xu Jinxiao would hold it tightly.
His cheeks were flushed now, and the pink blush on his fair, cold porcelain skin made his eyes look a bit cute.
Xu Jinxiao was immediately moved by the cuteness. She stared blankly at Chu Junhe in front of her and asked foolishly:
"Old...oh no, Master, why is your face red?"
Xu Jinxiao's heart skipped a beat, and he was so scared that he almost called her "wife".
Upon hearing this, Chu Junhe glared at him shyly, retracted his hand with force, and then waved his sleeve to push him out the door.
Xu Jinxiao quickly adjusted his body and landed safely, and the door in front of him was closed with a "bang".
Xu Jinxiao gritted his teeth unwillingly, pinched his throat, and whispered coquettishly, "Master~"
"It's already noon, go back and rest first."
Chu Junhe's indifferent voice came from inside the door, with an unquestionable tone.
Xu Jinxiao pouted in grievance and obediently returned to his residence.
I turned over and lay down on the bed to rest for a while, but unexpectedly I suddenly felt drowsy and fell into a deep sleep in a short while.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already late at night. Outside the window, the bright moonlight hung high in the night sky, and the stars were sparsely scattered.
The room was brightly lit by the moonlight. Xu Jinxiao sat up and rubbed his eyes lazily. The cool breeze blew in from the wide-open window.
He stood up and walked to the window. The slanting shadows of bamboos swayed by the window, and the bamboo leaves were blown by the wind, making a rustling sound, which was light and healing.
Xu Jinxiao raised his hand, and the white paper suddenly appeared in his hand. He slowly turned to the first page.
The green indicator line that originally led from the Wumian Sect to the Canglan Secret Realm disappeared. What surprised Xu Jinxiao even more was that the Canglan Secret Realm could no longer be found on the map.
"Xiaobai, why is the Canglan Secret Realm gone?"
'This secret realm will change its location each time it is entered, and will only appear on the map once its location is determined.'
Xu Jinxiao was amazed. There was such a secret place? This was a new experience!
But even though he was surprised, he had more important things to do.
"Then where is the next secret place?"
Secret Realm 2: Cloud Rising Forest, Entry Level: Middle Golden Core Stage – Great Golden Core Perfection
Xu Jinxiao drooped his eyelashes, stroked the paper twice, and decided to wait until after his wife's birthday before going.
Although strength is important now, his wife is more important.
After standing outside the window and looking at the moon for a while, he returned to his bed to meditate and practice.
Early the next morning, he rushed to chat with Chu Junhe, touching his hand from time to time, trying to deepen their relationship.
However, he returned to his residence early in the afternoon, without even Chu Junhe urging him.
Chu Junhe was shocked. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Xu Jinxiao's back, his eyes full of disbelief.
The disciple who usually sticks to him like a sticky candy and cannot be urged to leave, actually left early on his own initiative today.
Xu Jinxiao did not return to his residence. Instead, he came to the dining hall, rented a small room, and made cakes according to his memory.
After working until nightfall, they managed to make a pink and white cake with two cute Q-version figures on top, both dressed in snow-white clothes, which was particularly eye-catching.
However, if you look closely, you will find that the features of the two little people are very similar to Xu Jinxiao and Chu Junhe.
Xu Jinxiao smiled contentedly, put the cake into the system space, and went straight to Chu Junhe's residence.
"Knock knock knock"
He raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.
Crunch
Soon the door was opened, and a face as white as falling snow appeared before him. The white robe on his body had some wrinkles, and the immortal king who was detached from the world had fallen into the mortal world.
Xu Jinxiao's heart moved, and he stared into Chu Junhe's eyes, "Master, can I come in and sit for a while?"
Chu Junhe pursed his lips speechlessly. He wanted to sit in his room in the middle of the night? Was he crazy?
But he still made way.
Never mind, he dotes on his apprentice.
Xu Jinxiao smiled and walked in quickly, waiting for Chu Junhe at the table.
He pushed Chu Junhe to sit on the chair and then covered his eyes with his hands.
"Master, open your eyes when I count to one."
Xu Jinxiao's words successfully made Chu Junhe put down his hands and sit obediently on the chair.
He had some thoughts in his mind, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. It seemed that he would soon see the surprise that his disciple had talked about.
He had a premonition that the next scene would be remembered by him for the rest of his life.
"three"
"two"
"one"
Xu Jinxiao let go of his hand, and at the same time a pink and white cake appeared on the table. The cake was a bit rough, but the two little people on it were extremely delicate and cute.
But Chu Junhe was still shocked. He stared blankly at the beauty in front of him. He had never seen such pastries before. They looked extremely soft, and the rich sweet aroma filled his nose.
Seeing Chu Junhe's shocked expression, Xu Jinxiao smiled and said, "Master, I told you there would be a surprise, and here it is for you, isn't it?"
