Three years later: Possessiveness
Time flies.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
After Xiao Cha was taken back as the master's apprentice, Song Liubai, in the name of care, announced to the public that Xiao Cha was unwell, but in fact he was under surveillance.
During the three years, Song Liubai was in seclusion, and Xiao Cha never left the mountain. In fact, the only people who had seen him were the elders and his direct disciples, and there were no more than ten people in total.
Regarding this, the other people in the sect only knew that the leader had accepted a disciple, but they had no idea who that person was or what he looked like.
Of course, no one noticed that the new good-looking gentleman in the library had disappeared.
…………
There is a place in the Hengyuan Sect where the cloud-breaking mountain peaks are filled with spiritual energy.
Many rare herbs grow there, and even the spiritual beasts in the mountains are taller.
A stream flows slowly down from a high place.
The black-haired man sat in a bamboo pavilion by the stream, the sun shining on the railings, and his white knuckles tapped on the railings intentionally or unintentionally.
The black-haired man propped up his head and closed his eyes, feeling the warmth of the sun on his body.
"Buzz—"
Summer red dragonflies fly up from the green plants beside the stream.
Then.
It slowly landed on the stone table in front of the black-haired man.
The red dragonfly rubbed its hands and feet, its dark eyes fixed on the person who was sleeping in front of it.
The black-haired man was handsome, wearing a snow-white robe. He took off his long hair behind his ears with a simple headband and braided it, ending with a purple tassel. His eyelashes were like a small fan, casting a shadow. His nose was small, tall and straight, and his pink lips were really delicate.
Three years had passed, and the somewhat childish aura in Xiao Cha had faded away.
More mature, more tempting like a fruit.
"Oh."
"How long are you going to look at me like this?"
The black-haired man slowly opened his eyes and looked at the dragonfly on the table and asked.
The red dragonfly didn't move, and tilted its head as if it didn't understand.
The black-haired man didn't react at all when he saw it. He just picked up the teacup beside him and turned it upside down and put it on the dragonfly.
Three years have passed, and Song Liubai still can't change his peeping habit.
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
The dragonfly dodged quickly and flew into the air flapping its wings.
At this time, I paid attention to the red dragonfly. Its originally dark pupils were strangely empty.
The dragonfly rolled its eyes with a sinister look, and it was obviously not a living creature.
The black-haired man weighed the teacup in his hand, wondering what the probability would be if he threw the teacup at the red dragonfly.
But he hasn't taken any action yet.
The sound of hurried footsteps came from far away, and if you listened carefully, you could also hear the tinkling of other silver bells.
“Xiao Cha, Xiao Cha!!”
Shangguan Qing saw the man in the forest waving his hands excitedly.
The boy has grown a lot.
However, what remains unchanged is that he still carries the priceless longevity lock.
Xiao Cha looked up at the person who came, and with skillful movements, he placed a cup of tea that had already gone cold on the person.
It seemed that he had expected Shangguan Qing to come.
"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?" Xiao Cha said lightly.
"Xiao Cha Xiao Cha... cough cough..."
Shangguan Qing licked his dry lips, picked up the cold tea and drank it all in one gulp. He pulled up a wooden stool and sat down, saying hurriedly, "The demons from the southern border are invading, and this time they're coming with great force. It's said that a fairyland has appeared between the human and demon realms, formed by the spiritual sea after the fall of a powerful being hundreds of years ago."
"Coming in force?"
"That's right!"
Shangguan Qing grabbed the teapot, poured himself another cup of tea, and let it cool. He then said, "As the head of the Immortal Sect, we received a warning from the Immortals above to prepare for war long ago."
"We must not let them snatch all the opportunities and treasures."
Shangguan Qing took out a rolled-up piece of paper from his sleeve pocket. Then he looked around furtively, making sure that no one was around, before handing it to Xiao Cha.
Xiao Cha unfolded it with her slender fingers and took a closer look. There were three words written on it.
Huai Zusu.
Xiao Cha was not unfamiliar with this name. He was the prince of the demon tribe, and he also gave the male protagonist experience in the book.
Every time I meet him, it means that opportunity is coming. He is simply a walking 'opportunity detector'.
[Detected key figure in the plot - Huai Zusu, identity: Prince of the demon world, cultivation: late Nascent Soul stage, age: 19]
The familiar system sound rang again after three years.
The plot finally begins.
Xiao Cha's hand holding the paper froze and he lost his focus involuntarily. At this moment, a red dragonfly landed on his shoulder, but Xiao Cha didn't even notice it.
"Xiao Cha, why do you have to look at this paper for so long?"
Shangguan Qing raised his hand and pulled out the piece of paper with his name on it.
"Is there anything else?" Xiao Cha looked calm and withdrew his hands and placed them on his knees. He expected that Shangguan Qing liked to pretend to be profound, and there were still some things he hadn't finished saying.
"nature."
Shangguan Qing blinked his smart eyes and said, "That's the prince of the demon clan. If he succeeds in killing him in the fairyland where his cultivation level is crushed."
"The Immortal Supervisor Office will definitely give me an immortal position when the time comes."
The small world has a suppression on cultivation level, even if one enters the small world at the Mahayana stage, they will all be affected.
Therefore, in the fairyland, killing people of higher levels is no longer a difficult task.
but.
Xiao Cha's eyes dimmed slightly.
In the end, it was the strong who were suppressed. The strong were experienced, so the probability of being killed in return was actually not high.
It seems that the young and reckless Shangguan Qing does not seem to realize this problem.
Xiao Cha thought about it and decided to start as a friend, but he also needed to teach Shangguan Qing a lesson for his recklessness.
"The demon race can operate spiritual energy since childhood. Their physique and talent are simply beyond the reach of humans."
"Even if we are at the same level, the demon race has an innate advantage. You..."
"Hmm!! What's wrong with me?"
"Xiao Cha, you poured cold water on me and backed down. I haven't done anything yet." Shangguan Qing turned down the corner of his lips in displeasure.
But Xiao Cha was merciless and said cruelly: "Let's talk about the facts. Even if Huai Zusu is in the Qi training stage, he is the prince of the demon clan and has grown up in battles between humans and demons since he was a child."
"But you... forget it. Even at the Jindan stage, you might not be sure of killing him alone."
"What……"
Shangguan Qing instantly wilted, his eyelids half drooping as he muttered in disappointment, "Why is it so difficult to obtain an immortal position..."
Xiao Cha noticed his emotions and realized that he had gone a little too far. He lowered his brows and thought for a few seconds.
Xiao Cha looked away, raised his hand and placed it on the furry head, patting it as if to comfort it, and said with a light cough: "In fact, with your aptitude, it won't be difficult to obtain an immortal position in the future."
Shangguan Qing's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really?"
"so……"
"Why dwell on this matter so much? If you act too hastily, you'll end up getting stuck in a rut."
Xiao Cha spoke earnestly and didn't notice that Shangguan Qing's eyes were filled with unknown emotions when he looked at him.
Shangguan Qing was stunned when he saw Xiao Cha's face reflected in his eyes.
Since he was a child, his family sent him, a useless illegitimate son, to the sect to practice, to avoid him competing with the legitimate son for the right to live.
Shangguan Qing, who has never experienced the love of his parents, is a complete fool when it comes to feelings. He will repay those who are good to him double no matter what. He doesn't care even if that person uses him for ulterior motives. He just wants a moment.
So when he first came to the sect, Shangguan Qing was called a "money bag" and was often fooled by others. Fortunately, Lin Xingwan intervened later.
Shangguan Qing looked at Xiao Cha who was talking, and thought that there was another person in the world who was truly kind to him.
"Xiao Cha..."
Shangguan Qing lay on the table, his eyes a little sore, and he was cautious in his heart, wanting to touch this illusory love.
"Hmm?" Xiao Cha waited quietly for Shangguan Qing to speak.
“…”
Maybe it's shyness.
Shangguan Qing buried his face in his arms and said in a muffled tone: "Can I call you brother from now on?"
At this moment, Shangguan Qing felt as if the time around him had slowed down.
His face flushed red, thinking that he had been too reckless just now. How could he have said such a thing?
No, no, that's too abrupt. How can I make this sound right?
Haven't thought about it yet.
Shangguan Qing heard a chuckle from the man in front of him, and he looked up cautiously.
The black-haired man had curved eyebrows and eyes, as if there was light flowing and shining between them. The breeze blew up the hair beside his ears, making him look very gentle.
"So...it's because of this."
Xiao Cha noticed the shyness in his words and felt uncomfortable because she understood that the child wanted to get closer to her.
The little bully who always opposed the original owner in the original novel was just a child who lacked love.
Xiao Cha clenched his fist and put it in front of his mouth, "Of course.
"Although I joined late, I'm older than you, so it's not excessive to call me brother."
Shangguan Qing didn't react for a while. When he realized what the person in front of him said, he was immediately delighted. He stretched out his arms and rushed forward to pounce.
"Brother Cha... No, Brother Xiao!"
But what he received was an empty arms.
Shangguan Qing opened his eyes and found that he had been changed to another position without knowing when. He was squatting outside the small pavilion, and in front of him was a red dragonfly that was common in mountain streams.
"What just happened?"
Shangguan Qing muttered softly.
Then he touched his forehead belatedly, and felt something wet on his fingertips.
Only then did he realize that someone had set up a position-changing talisman for him without him noticing when.
Instantly, Shangguan Qing seemed to understand something. He looked at Qingting with a hint of respect and timidity and said, "Brother, aren't you in seclusion in the mountains?"
On the other side, Xiao Cha put his hands in his sleeves and slowly walked out of the bamboo pavilion, looking at the man and the "insect" facing each other on the ground.
Xiao Cha listened to Shangguan Qing's slightly complaining words and stared at the dragonfly with deep meaning in his eyes.
I don't know when it started, but Song Liubai has become a bit strict in his supervision of me.
Three years ago, he could still move around freely in the sect, but now... it seems that he is trapped in the "cage" of the mountain by Song Liubai.
Xiao Cha took a deep breath and his intuition told him.
Song Liubai's possessiveness towards him was no longer just towards a novel 'toy'.
More like a... darling.
impossible.
"Brother Xiaocha, what are you going to do?"
Shangguan Qing noticed from the corner of his eye that Xiao Cha passed him and walked towards the fork in the road.
This is the way back to the courtyard.
"I basked in the sun for a while and felt a little sleepy."
"Go back and take a nap."
Xiao Cha said this while carrying Shangguan Qing and Qingting on his back.
His tone seemed very calm.
In fact, Xiao Cha was already upset and tried to escape from it all.
