Afterwards, Hua Lingjiu followed Sheng Wu to the peach blossom forest.
"The peach blossoms here are blooming brilliantly as always. They are so beautiful."
Hua Lingjiu stood diagonally to Sheng Wu's side, her eyes bright and clear, but with a hint of melancholy, so deeply buried that it could not be seen.
Hearing this, Sheng Wu raised her eyelids and looked at these peach blossom demons that had already gained some intelligence, and pursed her lips.
"You always loved to pick them back then. I'm afraid the peach blossoms in the vase in the main hall have withered in the past ten years."
Hua Lingjiu was startled, then curled his lips and said, "So Master is missing the peach blossoms that I picked."
"Then Master, you have to wait a little longer. These flowers seem to have developed intelligence, so they won't be picked easily for me."
After saying that, she stepped forward and stretched out her hand towards the peach trees.
But the peach trees actually shook their branches as if to avoid her, which really fulfilled her words and awakened their spiritual wisdom.
Hua Lingjiu paused.
But the next second, Sheng Wu gave a look and the peach trees instantly became obedient again. They even took the initiative to press down the best peach branches for Hua Lingjiu to choose and pick.
Sheng Wu, dressed in a light purple and gold-gilded fairy robe, was watching from behind. Her beautiful face contained an unclear expression, and flying peach petals fell on her head.
Absolutely beautiful and dreamy.
Afterwards, Hua Lingjiu walked slowly towards Sheng Wu, holding a bunch of extremely fresh peach blossoms in her hand. Her eyes were no longer as childish and ignorant as before, but she looked at Sheng Wu with a hint of fox charm and tenderness.
"Master, peach blossoms." She handed the flowers to Sheng Wu.
Under the ten-mile peach forest.
One is a cold and banished immortal, the other is charming and lively.
Suddenly, it started snowing in the winter sky.
Against the backdrop of falling snow, the peach blossoms appear even more vibrant and beautiful.
Sheng Wu looked at her, her beautiful eyes lowered slightly, without saying a word, then reached out and took the bouquet of flowers she handed over.
"Master, you seem to have not changed at all in the past ten years. On the contrary, your disciples have grown up and no longer cause you as much worry as before."
Hua Lingjiu slowly stretched out his hand. Although he was a little shorter than Sheng Wu, he was not much taller.
I could actually feel the peach blossom petals falling on her hair with my fingers.
Sheng Wu stared at Hua Lingjiu, who was only half a meter away from her. Although she didn't know what she was going to do, she didn't stop her. Until she saw peach petals in Hua Lingjiu's lowered hand, she understood.
"What do you want to ask?"
Suddenly, she looked up at Hua Lingjiu directly.
Seeing her like this, Hua Lingjiu paused, then smiled helplessly.
"You are still as calm as ever."
"If... I want to ask you what you have done in the past ten years, will you be honest with me?"
There was a complicated look in her clear eyes.
Sheng Wu blinked and said concisely, "Kill people, practice."
"......" Hua Lingjiu didn't expect her to answer like this. She pursed her lips, knowing that Sheng Wu would not lie to her.
"I, the disciple, would like to ask Master a question. Are your feelings towards your disciples still the same as before?"
Her hands were clenched tightly under her sleeves, and her eyes were filled with unspeakable sadness.
Sheng Wu met her gaze without any concealment, almost without hesitation.
"Never changed." She never changed.
[Ding! The heroine's favorability is 57!]
Hearing this, Hua Lingjiu chuckled, as if relieved. Then he lowered his head and restrained his emotions. When he raised his hand again, he looked as carefree and lively as ever.
"As expected, disciples know that Master is the best and will not let disciples worry."
After saying that, she turned and looked towards the main hall in front of her.
"Master, the peach blossom wine is just ahead. Please go to the main hall and rest for a while. I'll call you when I'm done."
Sheng Wu nodded lightly and then walked forward.
The flying snowflakes left traces of her footsteps on the ground.
Hua Lingjiu looked at her back, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
[System, Master's dark power has really not decreased at all in the past ten years?]
The system was silent for a moment, [...Not at all.]
In an instant, Hua Lingjiu's eyes dimmed and his breathing became much heavier.
[Zhao Wuji offers Master the method of killing her husband to prove her Dao. Master, have you decided who to choose?]
Strangely enough, Sheng Wu treated Huai Jin, whom she had kept by her side for five years, like a slave, while she hadn't contacted Yu Chen Ming for five years. Her thoughts were unclear.
Hearing this, Hua Lingjiu still couldn't let go of the choking feeling in his heart.
She turned around and prepared to dig out the eleven jars of peach blossom wine, and the next second.
A somewhat panicked voice came from the system, "Host, this is bad! The Xianyun Sect's trial isn't just a competition for the younger generation. Zhao Wuji is also planning to rally other sects that have been oppressed by Sheng Wu to unite and kill her!"
If Sheng Wu was plotted against, the host's mission of redemption and elimination of the blackened value would also fail completely.
Hua Lingjiu's eyes darkened. [Didn't Zhao Wuji give Master a way to kill her husband and prove her Dao? It shouldn't happen this soon.]
In the original plot, Zhao Wuji would wait until Master and Yu Chenming had developed feelings for each other and were about to get married before taking action, but why is it happening so early now!
The system hesitated for a second, but was ready to tell her, "Zhao Wuji offered Yu Chenming the position of the next sect leader and promised not to kill Sheng Wu, but only to cripple her cultivation. This was how he tricked Yu Chenming into deliberately seducing Sheng Wu..."
After all, Yu Chenming was once Sheng Wu's eldest disciple and had the best talent, so he might have caught Sheng Wu's eye in the end.
Hua Lingjiu's breath trembled. [...Big Brother, you agreed?!]
The system was silent and didn't speak.
But Hua Lingjiu also understood. She twitched her fingertips and asked, "Where is Yu Chenming now?"
She no longer called Yu Chenming "Senior Brother".
[We have reached Piaomiao Mountain, but we are still at the foot of the mountain. We are not flying with a sword, but walking up step by step.]
Upon hearing this, Hua Lingjiu turned around without saying a word, without even having time to explain to Sheng Wu.
