Chapter 254 Extra: Snail Prince (11)
Seeing this, Lai Xiujie thought he had lost him, so he looked around anxiously but could not find Bai Su.
Could it be that the person I just saw was really an immortal?
He felt sad and lost, but he couldn't find any clues about Bai Su. In desperation, he could only give up for the time being.
Because of Bai Su's appearance, Lai Xiujie lost his mind to enjoy the scenery. He thought it would be better to go directly to his master to relieve the depression in his heart and tell him about his encounter with the fairy in the back mountain. Maybe his master could help him find a solution.
As for Bai Su on the other side, he didn't even notice that Lai Xiujie was in the back mountain.
They were already far apart, so being watched from afar wasn't a big deal. This place was still the Flame Dragon Cult's territory, after all. Even if someone was watching, Bai Su would have attributed that gaze to just an ordinary member of the cult.
Estimating the time, Bai Su felt that his lover should be back soon, so he hurriedly left the pavilion. When he reached the corner where he would not be discovered by anyone, he used magic to quickly teleport back to the yard.
When he returned, Bai Su was relieved to find that Yan Fengchen had not returned.
Fortunately, I was not discovered. Otherwise, if my lover noticed that I had left the courtyard without permission and no one knew about it, I am afraid he would worry or have wild thoughts again.
Bai Su thought as he walked into the courtyard. He noticed the changes in the courtyard. It seemed that since he arrived, Yan Fengchen had been working hard to transform it, making it more and more cozy. It was completely different from the beginning when it was completely deserted.
The flowers, plants, and trees here were not only carefully cared for, but there were also bamboo couches for cooling off, rattan tables and chairs for drinking and enjoying the scenery in the courtyard. Yan Fengchen had also had a swing built in the courtyard. The swing was wide, had a backrest, and was covered with a thick layer of cushions, making it very comfortable.
He could even sit on it with his lover, snuggling up together, and still have plenty of room to spare.
Bai Su liked the swing very much and would occasionally lie on it to bask in the sun.
Seeing that the sun was shining brightly today, he simply sat on it, basking in the sunshine, gently swinging on the swing, waiting for his lover to return.
However, it wasn't Yan Fengchen who arrived at the courtyard first. Not long after, Lai Xiujie arrived. Although he seldom came to the master's courtyard, because Yan Fengchen used to live in the small house in the valley, he was still happy to come and see him as long as he knew Yan Fengchen had returned.
Lai Xiujie was trained by Yan Fengchen at a very young age. He felt that although his master was strict, he also cared about him sincerely, so whenever he really encountered any problems, Lai Xiujie was willing to talk to his master.
The guards at the door saw that the person coming was the current leader, so they naturally didn't dare to stop him. So, Lai Xiujie entered Yan Fengchen's courtyard smoothly as usual.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he felt that the place seemed to have changed drastically. When did his master change his nature and start liking flowers, birds, fish and insects?
The large pond in the center is quite impressive. Moreover, a swing was added there at some point.
But this is not the point. The point is the young man on the swing. Isn’t he the person he has been looking for?
Who is this person? Could he be a servant serving in the master's courtyard?
He is so naughty and cute that he actually took advantage of the master's absence to play on the swing by himself!
Thinking of this, Lai Xiujie couldn't help but smile.
He never thought that Bai Su would have any relationship with Yan Fengchen. He claimed that he knew his master very well. His master had never been interested in love affairs, so how could he keep a little lover by his side?
Just when Lai Xiujie felt that he was so lucky to have met someone he fell in love with at first sight so quickly, and wanted to take this good opportunity to strike up a conversation with Bai Su, he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps coming from behind him.
He subconsciously turned around and saw that the person coming was his own master.
Yan Fengchen finally dealt with the urgent matter that the elders of the sect had asked him to deal with, and rushed back to the yard as soon as possible, wanting to see his little snail.
Who knew that the first person he saw when he entered the yard was not Bai Su, but his own stupid apprentice.
Seeing this, Yan Fengchen frowned and said, "Why are you here?"
Lai Xiujie noticed the man's disdain and said aggrievedly, "Master, I am your disciple after all. Isn't it normal for me to come and see you?"
However, being disliked wasn't just a matter of days, Lai Xiujie was used to it. In the past, his master always had a cold face. He didn't treat him well, but he didn't treat others well either!
Lai Xiujie is particularly open-minded about this.
So soon, he started laughing again and said to Yan Fengchen, "Master, I wanted to come to you because I was feeling a little depressed and had hit a bottleneck in my practice. Later, other things came up. But now, there's no need. I actually have something to ask you, Master!"
"What's up?"
Yan Fengchen asked, took two steps forward, glanced at Bai Su who was napping in the sun on the swing, and his expression softened a lot.
However, before he could feel better, he heard his stupid disciple say to him, "Master, I've found someone I want to ask you for money!"
"You've taken a fancy to someone, so why are you asking me for something?"
Yan Fengchen's mind was on Bai Su, and he didn't take his apprentice's words seriously. Lai Xiujie was the leader of the Flame Dragon Sect, and many people were willing to follow him, and many even wanted to be noticed by him.
He knew that his apprentice was not the kind of person who would force others, so he just let him do whatever he wanted.
Thinking that there were outsiders here, Yan Fengchen didn't go directly to Bai Su. He also wondered why his apprentice suddenly came to him to ask for someone. Could it be that he had taken a fancy to the person at his disposal?
I have never liked other people serving me closely, but I wonder if my disciple is interested in the servant who occasionally comes to clean here, or the guard outside. Could it be the secret guard?
Yan Fengchen was just guessing when he noticed that Lai Xiujie had walked up to him at some point, his eyes fixed on Bai Su on the swing.
The look of admiration in his eyes made Yan Fengchen's heart tighten. He immediately said to his apprentice, "You are not mistaken again, are you? He is not my brother!"
Lai Xiujie was stunned when he heard this, and his face flushed when he thought of how he had treated Gu Qingliu as his brother. Then he realized why his master said that.
But the last incident had had a huge impact on him, and he thought about it carefully after returning. In fact, it didn't matter whether she was a brother or a man, the most important thing was that he truly loved her.
He even felt envious when he learned that Gu Qingliu and Shi Tian were both men and very strong, yet they were still determined to be together.
Therefore, even with Yan Fengchen's reminder, Lai Xiujie did not back down. He said to him seriously, "Master, don't worry, I didn't admit my mistake this time. It doesn't matter if they are brothers or not. The most important thing is that we are in love with each other!"
After he finished speaking, he pointed directly at Bai Su who was sitting on the swing and said, "Master, this is your attendant, right? Can you give him to me? I was delighted when I saw him. He is just an attendant anyway. You can find someone else to do the cleaning and serving tea and water.
Look at him, he's not very old, still at the age of playing around, and he may not be able to do his job well, so just give him to me!"
When Yan Fengchen heard this, he realized that his stupid disciple was really after his own little snail monster, and he immediately became furious.
But they were still in the yard, so he couldn't get angry. Turning around and seeing that his beloved hadn't opened his eyes yet, he simply grabbed Lai Xiujie by the back of the collar and used his Qing Gong to lift him out.
Lai Xiujie was already a little confused when Yan Fengchen grabbed his collar and took him away. He had no idea what was going on.
After leaving the yard and being released by Yan Fengchen, he saw the murderous gaze of his master opposite him and shuddered subconsciously.
His master never showed his emotions. Even at the martial arts conference, he remained calm in the face of misunderstandings and insults from the crowd. He surpassed all the others in skills and used his strength to slap the faces of those so-called famous and upright sects.
Why did he show such anger towards me today? Although he didn't know the reason yet, Lai Xiujie was already scared. He shrank his neck and asked cautiously, "Master, Master, did I do something wrong?"
Yan Fengchen looked at his apprentice's foolishness, reached out his hand and slapped him hard on the back of the head, angrily saying, "What else have you done wrong? I think you are tired of living. You even dare to covet your own master's husband!"
"What husband?"
Lai Xiujie was completely stunned. After realizing what was happening, he suddenly remembered the young man he had seen in the yard. He had just been asking his master for...
So, he was not a servant at all, but his master's husband!
How is this possible?
His master, who was destined to be alone for thousands of years, had unexpectedly found love and was looking for a husband! Not only did the love blossom, but he was also looking for a young wife!
Looking at the young boy just now, he looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old at most. How could he guess that?
But since he was his master's husband, he naturally didn't dare to covet him. Although Lai Xiujie felt that Bai Su was absolutely stunning, it was impossible for him to have such deep feelings at that first glance.
To put it bluntly, he just likes beautiful women.
Knowing that he had not only done something wrong but also said something wrong, Lai Xiujie quickly begged for mercy from Yan Fengchen, saying all the nice things he could, just asking for his master's forgiveness.
I swear to God, even if he loves a beautiful woman, he wouldn't dare to set his sights on his master's people!
Although Yan Fengchen was very unhappy that his partner was coveted by others, when he saw his apprentice's servile look, he obviously knew he was wrong and did not pursue the matter any further.
However, whether or not to pursue the matter is fine. As a responsible and good master, it is my duty to care about my apprentice.
Hadn't his foolish disciple said before that his martial arts skills had hit a bottleneck? The best way to deal with a bottleneck is to practice and gain true knowledge. After practicing a few more moves, a flash of inspiration will surely come.
So, Yan Fengchen began to work tirelessly to "tutor" personally.
After countless moves, Yan Fengchen nodded as he looked at Lai Xiujie lying on the ground with a bruised face. After teaching his apprentice for a while, he felt much better.
Only then did Master Yan turn around and leave, going back to the yard to look for his own little snail monster.
The author has something to say:
Lai Xiujie: I will find a loving husband in the future! QAQ
Onlooker System 002: It could also be my husband~
