Chapter 95 Coaxing the Master
Jiang Xianwan felt a chill run down his spine when he met the beautiful woman's eyes, which were slightly upturned at the corners and devoid of any emotion.
I instinctively took a step back.
"Ah, hahaha."
She chuckled dryly twice, stiffly raised one hand, and forced out a sincere, obsequious smile, "Master, what a coincidence."
The flowers remain silent, their eyelashes drooping.
Jiang Xianwan: "..." For some reason, she felt a strange pressure.
However, listening to Elder Tie's heart-wrenching curses from halfway up the mountain, Su Qingliu and Bai Ziye, fearing they would be dragged back again, couldn't wait any longer and secretly nudged her from behind.
Keep it up, you'll win over the beautiful girl.
Jiang Xianwan was the only female disciple, so she still received a little bit of favoritism.
I hope that the last shred of conscience that Hua Buxiu has left has not been extinguished in this world.
Thinking of the ruler Elder Tie wielded with such force and the intensity of his roars, Jiang Xianwan steeled himself and flew up to the branch.
She sat down next to Hua Buxiu with an innocent and obedient expression, took out a bowl of lychees, and peeled one off in no time.
A smile (fawning—scratch that!) was held close to the lips of the beautiful master.
“Master, look how white and sweet these lychees are.”
"It carries the heartfelt wishes of my disciple!"
Hua Buxiu remained silent and did not look.
The scroll in his hand was tilted slightly, and the title line, "After becoming pregnant with the Sword Master's child, the junior sister ran away with the baby," happened to face Jiang Xianwan.
Jiang Xianwan: "..." silently withdrew her hand.
But then, Hua Buxiu's delicate fingers, deftly sifting through powder, slowly and deliberately picked up a page.
The bolded headline, "She fled, he chased; she could not escape even with wings," once again caught my eye.
Jiang Xianwan: "..." silently shrinking back.
The person lightly traced a line with their fingertip, as if brushing across an ink-wash landscape, casually glancing over the two names.
Hua Xuan.
Lin Ranran.
Jiang Xianwan: "..." Silently tightening her skin.
That was written before she came to the Southern Territory and Broken Mountain!
Jiang Xianwan broke out in a cold sweat, guiltily averting his gaze and decisively pretending to be blind.
Holding the lychee to his lips again, she forced a dry laugh and said, "Master, aren't you going to eat it?"
She secretly peeked at his expression from under her eyelashes, with only one thought in her mind.
It's over.
The beautiful woman is angry!
It's still grand.
He didn't even smile, let alone scold her for being a wicked disciple. Look at that expression; he had no expression at all and didn't even spare her a glance.
Jiang Xianwan broke out in a cold sweat. Mustering her courage, she gently nudged his shoulder, her voice twisting and turning as she scolded in a high-pitched voice, "Master~?"
Hua Buxiu swayed back and forth, expressionless, as if that book was his entire world.
Jiang Xianwan: "..."
In an instant, Jiang Xianwan's mind raced, frantically reflecting on what he had done that had angered the beautiful woman so much.
In a life-or-death situation, she actually came up with a solution.
He parted the book and leaned closer, saying expectantly, "Disciple shouldn't have gone to the black market."
Hua Buxiu never cared about it before.
Never mind, admitting your mistake is the right thing to do.
The book was held by a slender, snow-white hand, but Hua Buxiu remained motionless... slowly closing her eyes.
Jiang Xianwan: "..."
Not this one?
Or is there more than just this one?
She tentatively continued, "Disciple, shouldn't you...skip class?"
"Disciple shouldn't...have run away?"
Hua Buxiu: "..."
Jiang Xianwan: "..."
As Elder Tie's roar grew closer, Jiang Xianwan jolted awake, as if from a dream, and suddenly grabbed the blue sleeve. "Master has protected your disciple for four days. Your disciple... your disciple is truly happy!"
She was indeed very happy.
She knew that Hua Buxiu had never left.
She was also aware of the conversation between Hua Buxiu and Yun Weize.
Unbeknownst to Jiang Xianwan, she gripped the soft fabric in her hand tighter and tighter, her expression softening as she desperately wanted to escape.
"Master," she said softly.
Like a lost and helpless fawn finding shelter, it held a hint of caution, and a faint smile like a cat that had stolen some meat.
The man, whose beauty was like a begonia in the night, trembled slightly with his eyelashes and finally reacted.
He glanced at her for three seconds, then parted his thin lips and gently bit the lychee flesh from her fingertip.
But when he heard his wicked disciple shyly seize the opportunity and shamelessly say, "If I eat this lychee, can Master grant me one more request...", he stuck out his tongue.
Jiang Xianwan was prepared and quickly covered his mouth, stuffing the lychee back into his mouth and forcing him to eat it.
In the blink of an eye, he smiled slyly, "Disciple doesn't care. Since Master has already eaten my food, please be more considerate of me."
Having said that, before he could react, she jumped down from the tree branch and ran off with the two boys who had been secretly preparing to attack.
Hua Buxiu did not stop the three wicked disciples.
His dark eyelashes drooped like butterfly wings, and the sunlight filled the hollow of his collarbone, shrouding it in a jade-like hue.
One cheek was slightly puffed out, and her lips, stained with juice, were slightly red from the abuse.
Her bony fingers, resembling bamboo joints, gently held the book to her face, and the blush on her ear tips gradually turned into the color of lip rouge in the dappled light.
Bai Ziye withdrew his gaze and chuckled, "It's rare that the beautiful Hua has shown some conscience today."
Seeing the dog acting suspiciously from afar, Lin Yujin, who had just crawled out of the dog hole with her butt sticking out, immediately followed.
Su Qingliu lifted his long leg, looked straight ahead, and leisurely stepped over Lin Yujin's back to look at the information on the jade slip.
"A small secret realm has appeared. The entrance hasn't been opened yet. It's not too far away. We can get there in half a day. Shall we go?"
Since she had nothing better to do anyway, and it seemed like a better option than writing clan rules, Jiang Xianwan walked past Lin Yujin, who was half-stood up, and said, "Come on, senior brother, take me with you, my back hurts."
Bai Ziye cupped his face and stepped over Lin Yujin's back as he walked past, "Junior Sister, aren't you going to ride on Second Senior Brother's roulette wheel?"
"Come back and sit down."
Lin Yujin, lying on the ground with two shoe prints on her back, was speechless.
The four spent half a day arriving at Qiyuan Town.
Perhaps because the secret realm is small, as far as the eye can see, there are countless rogue cultivators.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, the four of them wore a layer of black clothing over their blue coats.
After all, the news that the Phoenix Sword Master had taken on four personal disciples in one go has been quite a hot topic recently.
Of course, with the hot topic of the Phoenix Sword Master's return from his travels, their unified blue robes from the Phoenix Terrace became quite eye-catching.
Especially Su Qingliu.
At its peak.
It is said that this person was born with a sword bone, and his talent is one in ten thousand. He defeated Shi Yunxiao, who was also born with a sword bone, in the Taixu Sect's disciple competition. He is known as one of the two most outstanding talents in the Taixu Sect and has become the object of many female cultivators' marriage proposals.
Under another tree, a wandering monk recounted how Hua Buxiu was spied on while bathing by a man during his travels.
Bai Ziye, while diligently eating the packaged dessert, mumbled, "I've heard that men and women chasing after beauties, demons and monsters, circle the two realms and three domains."
"Those people's eyes must have been shut down by their butts."
Lin Yujin ate without even looking up, with a large bowl of spicy wide noodles in one hand and a scallion pancake in the other.
"I really want to show them what the real beauty is like."
He beat his apprentice mercilessly, aiming to kill him with every strike.
Even Jiang Xianwan, Hua Buxiu's only female apprentice, never received any special treatment from him.
