Yu Yan knew she was in the wrong.
She walked around to Shen Qingyi's front, and the two of them walked backwards, one in front of the other.
“Senior brother, I came to you before because I wanted you to be my witness for the apprenticeship ceremony for the two little ones.”
Shen Qingyi paused in his steps.
He looked at Yu Yan, a cryptic smile slowly curving his lips.
He said,
"Junior sister is indeed a competent master. I didn't expect you to consider your disciple so thoroughly. It seems you really care."
These were just a few ordinary words, or even a compliment.
Yu Yan was able to detect the man's sarcastic tone in his voice.
She was stunned.
Shen Qingyi withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at her.
Regardless of what she thought, he strode up to Yu Yan.
Shen Qingyi: "Why not wait four years for the apprenticeship ceremony? By then, my junior sister might have taken a liking to some promising talents. It would be much easier to hold it together."
Yu Yan thought she must have been imagining things.
Why would my senior brother be sarcastic? My senior brother is never sarcastic.
The man's words as he left still echoed in her ears.
A promising talent?
I must say, what my senior said makes a lot of sense.
It would be safer to have more people at Yan Hui Palace.
Shen Qingyi went out to find Yu Yan as soon as he came out of seclusion.
Upon returning to the main peak, he summoned Mu Nanyu.
"Nanyu, I heard that you took your master's two disciples on a training trip before."
Shen Qingyi spoke as if they were having a normal conversation.
But when he asked so bluntly, Mu Nanyu, who had been convinced that his master had something important to discuss with him, suddenly felt a strange unease.
Is this what Master summoned him to ask?
Regardless of her inner thoughts, Mu Nanyu answered truthfully.
"Yes, Master, that is indeed true."
Then what?
Shen Qingyi looked at him. He had already asked so many questions, and Nanyu only said this one sentence?
The man in blue had a smile on his lips as he stared intently at Mu Nanyu, until his little apprentice felt a chill run down his spine.
After hesitating for a moment, Mu Nanyu asked carefully.
"Master, is there something you wish to discuss with me?"
Shen Qingyi was filled with disappointment and frustration, and he sighed softly.
"It's nothing. You should go back and focus on your cultivation."
Mu Nanyu froze, then turned and walked out of the main hall with a slightly bewildered look on his face.
As if he had suddenly realized something, he turned and glanced back at the main hall.
Could it be that Master wants to know what happened during the last mission?
However, after he had been a disciple of his master for a hundred years, his master rarely asked him many questions after each training trip, as if ensuring his safety was all that mattered.
Mu Nanyu looked away, amused.
He's probably overthinking it.
His master told him to cultivate diligently.
Every time she saw her Martial Aunt Yan, she would remind herself to cultivate diligently.
A smile graced the man's gentle, handsome face.
Since his master and uncle have said so, he certainly cannot let them down.
Four years have passed in the blink of an eye.
After the wild geese returned to the palace
The two thousand-year-old peach trees still have lush canopies and are covered with peach blossoms.
The few years that can be counted on one's fingers are pitifully short for an ancient tree.
rustling, rustling
There was no wind on the hilltop, but the peach tree near the side of the hall made a rustling sound.
Peach blossoms drifted to the ground like falling snowflakes.
It was quickly turned into a pink carpet.
Among the tree canopy and branches.
A rabbit, almost entirely stained red, was lying on it.
Only the rabbit's tail, as white as a snowball, adorned its rump.
It raised its upper body and licked its front paws.
The faint red light surrounding him gradually dissipated.
Red Hare leaped from the branch to the ground, rolling around on the ground as it touched the ground.
