"Not really!" Shenji glanced at Linghu Lan with his dark eyes, his answer honest and devoid of emotion. "My lineage has always been passed down through a single successor. I need to confirm whether you are dead before I can take on a disciple."
Linghu Lan coughed up a mouthful of blood and silently mourned for Ji Liang for three minutes.
Your master is unreliable. Don't be angry, don't be angry, I'll take revenge for you slowly!
"Can you tell me what happened to me? I'm totally confused."
Shenji gently extended his finger and touched Linghu Lan's forehead, sending a long memory belonging to Shenji into Linghu Lan's mind.
Linghu Lan closed her eyes, silently processing the coldness in Shenji's eyes.
When Ji Liang followed Shen Ji, he was still an infant, while Shen Ji was tall and elegant, dressed in ancient costume.
At that time, Ji Liang's body was very weak, like a corpse. Shen Ji then found rare and precious herbs to nourish Ji Liang's soul.
This nurturing process lasted for over a hundred years, and the once-cooled soul finally showed signs of awakening.
At this moment, Shenji's enemies came knocking, forcing Shenji to place a restriction on Jiliang and deal with the enemy himself.
When they chased the people away and returned, Ji Liang had already disappeared.
The restriction was placed by him personally, and it was impossible to break from the outside unless Ji Liang inside decided to come out on his own. However, Ji Liang was just a baby and had no ability to come out on his own.
It wasn't until later, when Shenji successfully advanced and returned to fight his way back, that he found out what had happened. He learned that not long after he left, Ji Liang opened his eyes. His enemy had tricked Ji Liang into reaching out his little hand with a lollipop and slowly crawling out of the barrier.
After obtaining Ji Liang, the enemy intended to kill him, but unexpectedly, Ji Liang had a protective talisman on him. The enemy severely injured Ji Liang, but the talisman also disappeared with Ji Liang.
Shenji's memories were only transmitted to this extent. After Linghu Lan finished reading them, she slowly opened her eyes.
She paused for a moment, then could only sigh: It seems that all babies in the universe are powerless against lollipops; you could say that the power of foodies is truly formidable.
Moreover, to everyone's surprise, Ji Liang was actually a baby who had lived for over a hundred years.
However, the memory given by Shenji was incomplete, missing the beginning. It was clear that an infant could not be born with serious injuries; it could only have been beaten by someone. As for who beat it, Shenji did not say.
Shenji saw through Linghu Lan's thoughts at a glance and said calmly, "I will tell you about your background after you have completed your cultivation. From today onwards, I will teach you my cultivation techniques."
Linghu Lan was not surprised. The cultivation world is always cruel. There are many instances of people fighting over cultivation resources, especially in the Dharma-ending Age, when the resources available for cultivation are actually very scarce, making it increasingly difficult to advance.
Even if she knew about Ji Liang's deep-seated hatred, without the corresponding ability, knowing it would only hinder her cultivation and make her prone to developing inner demons.
"Okay!" Linghu Lan replied with a smile.
Shenji looked very doubtful: "Don't you have any questions?"
Linghu Lan keenly sensed Shenji's subtext: "Are you stupid? You believed me so easily."
She sighed silently. What could she do? Was it wrong to believe unconditionally?
But in order not to make Mo Tang think she was a fool, she managed to come up with a question: "What's your name?"
