Chapter 2: Meeting Rong Yan Again, Not Saving Him
Not long after, a errand disciple in green clothes came out from the side hall beside the mountain gate. He looked Shen Yubai up and down and asked rudely, "Who are you? What are you doing in Xialing Peak?"
Chen Yubai bowed slightly and said, "I am Chen Yubai, a disciple of Qingyue Peak. I have now left Qingyue Peak and come to see Master Ye. I would like to practice under him."
When the servant heard the name Qingyue Peak, a trace of disdain appeared on his face, but he suppressed his impatience and said, "Wait here for a moment. I will go in and report."
After saying that, he turned and entered the peak, passed through the winding spiritual corridor with ease, and came to the front yard of Xialing Pavilion.
"Reporting to the Peak Master, a man has arrived outside the mountain gate, claiming to be Shen Yubai, a disciple of Qingyue Peak. He wishes to see the Peak Master and become his disciple."
On the steps, Ye Wange was leaning on the beauty couch, wearing a moon-white long dress that trailed on the ground, with a gentle and soft look between her eyebrows.
She was wearily flipping through an ancient book. Hearing this, she just nodded lightly, as if she didn't take it to heart.
But the next moment, her slender fingers paused, "Who are you talking about?"
The disciple bowed his head and replied, "Peak Master, it's a person named Shen Yubai, who claimed to be a disciple of Qingyue Peak. He has now left Qingyue Peak and wants to join us at Xialing Peak."
Ye Wange sneered, "Chen Yubai, is that the good-for-nothing with three spiritual roots? Ye Zhao himself despised this disciple as a burden, so he wanted to dump him on me. Does he really think that Xia Lingfeng is a garbage collector?"
"Drive him down the mountain." Ye Wange said coldly.
The disciple nodded in agreement.
After a moment, he quickly returned to the mountain gate, glanced at Shen Yubai, and said in a cold voice: "Our peak master said that Xialing Peak will not accept people with low qualifications like you. If you know what's good for you, leave the mountain as soon as possible and don't pollute the pure air in front of our gate."
Chen Yubai looked up in disbelief, "You...are you mistaken? Didn't Master Ye Feng say that she never rejects disciples who want to join based on their aptitude? As long as I am willing to come, then..."
"When did our Peak Master ever say that?" the disciple sneered. "Xia Ling Peak has always valued talent and aptitude when recruiting disciples. Why don't you look in the mirror? With your rubbish talent, you still dream of joining our Xia Ling Immortal Sect? Aren't you afraid of damaging our Peak Master's reputation?"
"Get out!" The errand disciple raised his hand impatiently and pushed Shen Yubai, causing him to stagger. He sneered, flicked his sleeves, and turned back to the peak.
Shen Yubai slipped and fell down the stone steps, his eyes full of surprise and confusion.
How could it be? Didn't she say that as long as he came, then...
He stood up with the help of his hand that had not yet stopped bleeding, took a few more steps stubbornly, and stood in front of the stone steps, refusing to leave.
It must be that the menial disciple was deliberately making things difficult for him. He wanted to wait here for Fairy Wangyue to come out and ask her in person.
And the other side.
Ye Zhao also left Qingyue Peak.
In her previous life, she put all her energy into teaching her disciples, and her realm stagnated at the peak of the Golden Core for many years. Now she wants to give up those ungrateful people and pursue her own path.
The Wenxin Sect is one of the top four sects. There are spiritual veins crisscrossing the sect, and there are a total of nine main peaks.
Tongming Cave is located deep in the sect's secret realm, Youji Valley. It is only open to the masters of each peak and the elders-level cultivators. The spiritual energy here is extremely pure and condensed, and it has miraculous effects on practicing mental methods, nourishing the soul, and breaking through bottlenecks.
Ye Zhao walked into the Youji Valley with a sword in hand. Deep in the valley, vines were entwined around the stone walls, and spiritual light was faintly visible. Ye Zhao broke through the barrier and stepped into the cave entrance.
After entering the cave, Ye Zhao closed his eyes for a moment and was about to enter into meditation and practice, when suddenly his brows slightly frowned.
Ahead, at the end of the dark cave, the spiritual energy seemed to be disturbed by some force, causing the surrounding rock walls to tremble faintly.
Ye Zhao walked slowly closer and saw a blood-stained figure rushing out from behind a rock.
It was a young man with disheveled black hair and fiery red eyes. His demonic energy was turbulent, as if his soul sea would explode at any moment. His body was covered in scars, a lightning streak nearly burning through his left shoulder, and he exuded an intimidating aura of murderous intent.
After seeing the man's face clearly, Ye Zhao felt relieved.
It turns out that I was reborn back to this point...
At this time, she only had six disciples, and the one in front of her was Rong Yan, the posthumous son of the demon clan who would soon become her disciple.
Rong Yan is her youngest disciple and also the most difficult one to teach.
He was the posthumous child of the demon clan. The demonic energy in his body was naturally violent and incompatible with the human cultivation method. He often went astray during cultivation. Other peak masters privately advised him to give up, saying that this child had an unstable mind and would eventually become a disaster.
But she didn't.
She personally rewrote the spell for him and used her own skills to suppress the runaway demonic energy.
He had also treated her sincerely, picking red bamboo in the spiritual field to make a flute for her, and weaving a tassel rope with clumsy hands. He also stayed outside the door when she was in seclusion, and never left even when he was shivering with cold.
But everything changed from the moment he stepped into Xialing Peak.
He said that it was because she had meddled in his affairs and taken him back to Qingyue Peak to take back his disciples that he missed Ye Wange.
What Ye Zhao didn't expect was that in order to help Rong Yan suppress the evil spirit, she tied him up in the cave to prevent him from hurting himself, which actually became the reason for him to hate her.
At this time, Rong Yan also saw Ye Zhao, and his eyes instantly turned cold.
"roll!"
The sound carried the unique shock force of the demons.
"Stay away from me... Don't worry about me! I don't want you to save me!" His body was full of demonic energy, and strange black lines appeared on his pale face. It was obvious that he had gone crazy.
But he still stared at Ye Zhao, afraid that she would come to save him.
In his previous life, he was rescued by Ye Zhao, brought back to Qingyue Peak, and became her apprentice.
It was nothing at first, but later he found out that not long after Ye Zhao took him away, the Fairy Wangyue, whom he had always admired, came. In other words, if Ye Zhao had not meddled in his affairs, he would have been taken back to Xialing Peak by the Fairy Wangyue.
Although Ye Zhao was gifted and was the only one among all the peak masters of Wenxin Sect who had Dan spiritual roots, she was in the Golden Core Realm until her death in her previous life. Not to mention comparing with her own disciples, she was not even as good as many ordinary inner disciples.
How can such a person be worthy of being his master?
Not to mention that Ye Zhao later embarked on a wrong path...
"I'm telling you, you..."
Rong Yan wanted to say something harsh, but Ye Zhao ignored him and walked straight past him into the cave...
Now it was Rong Yan's turn to feel uncomfortable. He had thought that Ye Zhao would come to his rescue again, but she didn't.
For a moment, a look of surprise and doubt flashed in Rong Yan's eyes.
But on second thought, isn't this exactly the result he wants?
If she doesn't save him, there is still Fairy Wangyue.
The beautiful figure from his previous life emerged in his mind, and Rong Yan's expression softened.
This time, away from Ye Zhao, he no longer had to be tied up in the cave by her, nor did he have to practice her confusing martial arts that made him breathless and in excruciating pain.
Fairy Wangyue will definitely treat him a hundred times or a thousand times better than Ye Zhao.
