"This disciple greatly admires True Lord Shangling."
Seeing Ling Mubai relentlessly pursuing Qin Wan, a hint of impatience and disgust flashed in Ji Jue's eyes.
An old man who lacks self-awareness.
Not only is he old, but his cultivation level is also lower than his master's, his appearance is not worthy of his master's, and his temperament and comprehension are extremely poor.
How dare a useless man like him covet his master?
A woman as outstanding as Master is unworthy of any man in the cultivation world!
With her master's talent and cultivation, the existence of romantic love would only delay her cultivation to become an immortal.
"Envious of Senior Brother?" Qin Wan was taken aback, seemingly not understanding what he envied about Ling Mubai.
"Yes, I envy True Monarch Shangling for having such an outstanding and perfect junior sister as his master."
As he spoke, a hint of disappointment appeared on Ji Jue's devilishly handsome face. "I have never been as lucky as True Lord Shangling in this life."
"..." Qin Wan paused for a moment before saying, "If A-Jue really wants a junior sister, I can consider it."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jue quickly waved his hand to refuse, "No need, no need, I can't bear to see Master work so hard."
"Our master is a genius, and his cultivation should not be hindered by us blockheads. Being able to become his disciple is a blessing we have accumulated over several lifetimes."
"Your disciple only asks to stay by your master's side; I have no other desires."
Qin Wan: "..." You are the epitome of a green tea b*tch.
Seeing Qin Wan remain silent, Ji Jue looked slightly troubled. He glanced at Qin Wan cautiously, then hesitated to speak.
"Master, did I say something wrong?" Ji Jue asked.
Qin Wan gently shook her head, "No."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jue pretended to breathe a sigh of relief and said softly, "It's good that Master isn't angry."
Ling Mubai frowned, his gaze towards Ji Jue growing increasingly displeased.
My junior sister's little apprentice speaks in a very sarcastic and unsettling way.
Not likable!
"True Lord Shangling, our master has already gone through so much, having to protect the sect's disciples as well. Could you please not cause her any more trouble?"
Ling Mubai hadn't even had a chance to express his dislike for Ji Jue...
Ji Jue's sudden question immediately darkened Ling Mubai's expression, making it extremely unpleasant.
"A-Jue, you mustn't be rude." Qin Wan frowned slightly and glared at Ji Jue, signaling him to watch his manners.
"Master, I'm sorry, it was I who overstepped my bounds and put you in a difficult position," Ji Jue quickly apologized.
As she spoke, Ji Jue looked at Ling Mubai with a sincere expression, "Shangling True Lord, I am truly sorry for what happened just now. I spoke without thinking and offended you greatly."
"I hope that Lord Shangling will be magnanimous and not hold a grudge against a lowly disciple like me."
"And please don't be angry with my master because of me. My master actually cares a lot about you, her senior brother, True Lord Shangling!"
"A-Jue," Qin Wan gently reminded him to stop.
After being reminded by Qin Wan again, Ji Jue finally obeyed and shut up.
But he had said almost everything he should and shouldn't have said, leaving Ling Mubai sitting there with an ugly expression.
"Senior brother, calm your mind and focus your energy."
Just as Ling Mubai was about to get stuck on his own thoughts again, Qin Wan's voice, carrying a faint spiritual energy, reached his ears and startled him awake.
A clear and lucid mind...
Ling Mubai looked up at Qin Wan, their eyes met, and looking into her clear eyes, Ling Mubai lowered his eyes to hide the fleeting look of loneliness in them.
In the end, he crossed the line...
In the end, it was he who disturbed us...
Ling Mubai snapped out of his daze, sat down cross-legged, entered a meditative state, and circulated his spiritual energy, repeatedly practicing the Heart-Cleansing Mantra.
Seeing that everyone was alright, Qin Wan pulled Ji Jue along to help the disciples and elders present to heal their injuries by circulating their internal energy.
When it was Nangong Rou's turn, Qin Wan and Ji Jue exchanged a glance, then turned and left in tacit agreement...
For a moment, neither of them mentioned helping Nangong Rou with her treatment.
Watching Qin Wan's departing figure, a hint of hesitation flashed in Jiang Shuyu's eyes.
Junior sister...
"Second Senior Brother?" Nangong Rou's eyes were full of unease, and she looked at him with a look of complete dependence.
Instantly, Jiang Shuyu's full attention returned to her.
"Junior sister, is there anything else that's bothering you?" Jiang Shuyu asked with concern.
Nangong Rou shook her head, but her eyes kept glancing at Qin Wan and Ji Jue's departing figures.
Especially Ji Jue...
What a pure body.
Despite possessing the aptitude of dual water and fire spiritual roots, the purity of his body is even better than that of someone with only a single spiritual root.
Thinking of this, Nangong Rou bit her lower lip lightly, a greedy glint flashing in her eyes.
Such talent...
"Rou'er..."
Nangong Rou snapped out of her daze and looked at Jiang Shuyu with a naive expression, blinking her innocent big eyes and looking at him timidly.
"Second Senior Brother, is Master angry with me?"
"No, Rou'er, don't overthink it." Jiang Shuyu patted her little head affectionately.
"Second Senior Brother, you're so kind..."
As she spoke, "Nangong Rou" threw herself into Jiang Shuyu's arms, tightly hugging his neck and waist with both hands, and gently rubbing her face against his chest.
"Second Senior Brother..."
Within the Tianyun Sect, Nangong Rou is gentle, playful, and understanding, making her a character that evokes sympathy.
In the Heavenly Demon Realm, because she was constantly facing life and death, Nangong Rou became weak and helpless, and subconsciously became close to and dependent on him, which softened his heart and made him feel extremely happy.
Does Rou'er's reliance on and trust in him mean that she also has feelings for him?
Thinking of this, Jiang Shuyu's heart trembled.
Qin Wan was about to take Ji Jue to support Xiao Han and the others when, upon reaching the cave entrance, she discovered that the entrance had abruptly vanished...
"Master?"
Ji Jue rushed to Qin Wan's side immediately, gripping his sword and protecting her tightly.
"Master?"
“It’s an illusion.” Qin Wan frowned. “If I’m not mistaken, we must have accidentally wandered in and gotten trapped.”
Ji Jue looked around, her brows furrowed.
"Give it a try."
Qin Wan calmly took out a manual on formations and handed it to Ji Jue.
Ji Jue: "???"
"Master wants me to learn now?" Ji Jue pointed to herself and asked incredulously.
"Unwilling?" Qin Wan asked, frowning.
"...Disciple has none." Ji Jue shook his head.
Ji Jue took the array formation manual and began to study it, while Qin Wan chose a propitious spot, sat down cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
Seeing that she was truly not in a hurry at all, Ji Jue felt rather complicated and didn't know what to say.
Finally, Ji Jue calmed herself down and opened the array manual in her hand, studying it carefully.
"Little good-for-nothing?"
"...Just say it." The system sighed softly, fully aware that Qin Wan had come with ill intentions.
Qin Wan: "I want to watch a play."
[...Xiao Han?]
Qin Wan raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "You really do live up to your name."
[...]
After a brief period of self-isolation, the system cleverly transmitted the entire scene unfolding between "Nangong Rou," Jiang Shuyu, Ling Mubai, Xiao Han, and others to Qin Wan's mind.
Watching those wonderful scenes unfold, Qin Wan raised an eyebrow in satisfaction.
"The little good-for-nothing finally showed some intelligence for a moment."
[...] The system cursed and locked itself in a dark room, severing all contact with Qin Wan.
