Chapter 49049 She was afraid that if she was a second late, she would lose control and rush forward...
After Lu Qingqing dealt with wave after wave of male cultivators who came to chat her up, she suddenly sneezed.
She touched her nose and felt strange.
The monk was in good health and never caught a cold, so why did he suddenly sneeze?
"Is someone scolding you?"
Before he knew it, the ever-dancing socialite Ji Weilan had returned to his side, winking playfully. "Or perhaps someone is thinking of you?"
"I miss you." Lu Qingqing said angrily.
"It would be nice if I wanted my head." Ji Weilan pouted childishly, "I'm just afraid they're targeting you. I'll just go out and say hello to someone I know, and you, Junior Sister, will be targeted by those men."
Lu Qingqing didn't bother to pay attention to his crazy talk and sat down to drink tea.
When she was free, her gaze naturally drifted towards Feng Yingheng.
He saw his master sitting upright in his seat, slightly leaning sideways to listen to the master uncle next to him talking, with an impatient look on his face but unable to get angry.
Lu Qingqing wanted to laugh.
She was nagged by Ji Weilan, and her master was nagged by his uncle, asking why they didn't consider their fate as miserable.
At this moment, a graceful figure came slowly and landed in front of Feng Yingheng.
Fairy Yuxue bowed slightly and said a few words to Feng Yingheng shyly. Ji Haozhi laughed and pushed Feng Yingheng, meaning that he should go quickly.
Feng Yingheng really stood up and left with Fairy Yuxue.
It seems that Master Lu wants to propose marriage to Feng Yingheng on behalf of his apprentice.
Lu Qingqing silently withdrew her gaze, as if something was taken away from her heart, leaving her feeling empty, with only bitterness and a faint sadness lingering.
Although she has never been in a relationship, she has had someone she likes.
Although I don't want to admit it, my mood at this moment is almost exactly the same as when I saw the boy I had a crush on going home with another girl.
Damn it, she actually developed feelings for her master that she shouldn't have.
…
On the way back to Yunmiao Sect, Feng Yingheng was unexpectedly a little uncomfortable with the fact that his little disciple, who always liked to chatter and ask him questions, remained silent.
Turning around, Lu Qingqing, who was flying on a sword, frowned slightly, and her eyes were a little confused, not as playful and lively as usual.
"Qingqing." Feng Yingheng sent her a voice message, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Qingqing subconsciously said "Ah?" and then she realized that her unhappy look might be too obvious, so obvious that Feng Yingheng could see it.
"Master, I am fine, just a little sleepy."
"Being surrounded by so many young people chatting with each other does make me sleepy."
I never expected that Feng Yingheng, who usually seemed indifferent to everything, would actually say such a thing.
Um?
Master saw it all?
Before she could speak, Feng Yingheng said, "You are still young, so don't be anxious about finding a Taoist partner."
Lu Qingqing: …………
When did she say she wanted to find a Taoist partner? Why is this man blaming her?!
Now that we're talking about this topic, Lu Qingqing wants to ask.
"Master, am I going to have a master's wife?"
Feng Yingheng was stunned. "Why do you say that?"
"I heard about it today while we were drinking tea and admiring the flowers." Lu Qingqing continued boldly, "They said you might be with Fairy Yuxue..."
"Nonsense." Feng Yingheng said coldly, "I don't need a Taoist companion."
Lu Qingqing felt a little complicated for a moment.
The good thing is that it looks like she won't have a master's wife for a long time;
The sad thing is...
The master is not interested in anyone, including her.
The next moment she felt incredible and ashamed that she had such thoughts.
Lu Qingqing, you must be so bold as to actually have the guts to covet Feng Yingheng...
After scolding herself, she quickly began to recite the Heart Purification Mantra again.
Feng Yingheng, who had been flying in the front, turned around and saw that his apprentice's face was turning red and white, his expression was unpredictable, and his eyes were darting around. He suddenly remembered Ji Haozhi's words that asked him to prepare early and that sooner or later his apprentice's loved one would leave him, and his mood suddenly became irritated.
So the master and disciple, each with their own thoughts, stopped talking.
…
Feng Yingheng and Lu Qingqing did not return directly to Jimu Peak, but went to the side hall of Caomu Peak after receiving the notice.
Ji Haozhi looked around and saw that several junior brothers and sisters and their disciples had arrived, so he cleared his throat.
"Today, while everyone is here, I want to discuss something with you all."
"Please speak, senior brother." Third uncle Lan Wan was gentle and kind, with a sweet smile.
Ji Haozhi put down his teacup and said, "As everyone knows, the transmission array of the Dawn Continent has been guarded by my sect for the past hundred years. Zhang Shun, a disciple of Xiongqi Peak, has been in charge of it for fifty years, working diligently and tirelessly."
"Oh." Second Uncle Qian Peng, a straightforward man, interrupted him, "Big Brother, don't beat around the bush. Just say what you want to say."
Ji Haozhi coughed twice and stopped being shy.
"Although Zhang Shun is only an outer sect disciple, he is devoted to the Dao, works diligently, and is about to achieve a breakthrough. The Jindan stage is of great importance. Although he hasn't mentioned it, as his master, I cannot help but understand his situation. I have allowed him to return to Yunmiao Sect to retreat and upgrade. Therefore..."
"So someone needs to replace Zhang Shun to defend the formation." Feng Yingheng said the second half of the sentence for him.
Ji Haozhi nodded, "I wonder if there are any suitable outer disciples under my junior brothers and sisters who can replace Zhang Shun. Once Zhang Shun succeeds in forming a pill, he can continue to guard the formation."
Second Uncle shook his head, "My outer disciples are not strong enough."
The guardians of the formation stipulated that one must be at least at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment stage. Otherwise, they could not use the jade stone left by the ancient gods to activate the formation. Unfortunately, outer disciples generally lacked aptitude, and most began their training by doing chores like sweeping and cleaning. Those who could overcome their shortcomings with diligence, like Zhang Shun, and break through the restrictions, had a hope of achieving the Core Formation stage.
Third Uncle-Master looked troubled. "I do have one under my tutelage, but he's been in seclusion lately."
Feng Yingheng: "I don't have any outer disciples."
The hall was silent and no one spoke for a while.
"Master has several young men with Golden Core cultivation under his tutelage." Third Uncle-in-Chief spoke hesitantly, "But those young men have been serving him for a long time. I wonder if Master is willing to give them up."
Ji Haozhi waved his hand and said, "Don't think about going to Caomu Peak. Master won't allow it."
The atmosphere was a little awkward when Lu Qingqing suddenly spoke.
"Master, uncles, do the guards have to be outer disciples?"
Ji Haozhi: "That's not the case, it's just that since ancient times, the guards of the formation have all been outer disciples."
Lu Qingqing took two steps forward and bowed, "Disciple is willing to temporarily replace Zhang Shun to guard the formation."
When these words were spoken, everyone was deeply surprised.
Feng Yingheng said nothing, but his slightly furrowed brows revealed his mood.
"Qingqing, you have just entered the sect, and it is the time to practice with the master. Going to guard the formation now will not be beneficial to your cultivation." Second uncle Qian Peng said.
"To be honest with you elders," Lu Qingqing said generously, "I haven't been practicing well lately, and I've been having trouble breaking through. It would be better to change places, maybe I can gain new insights. Besides, the Dawn Continent is my hometown, so going back to visit is one of my wishes."
As he spoke, he looked at Feng Yingheng and bowed slightly. "You can practice while guarding the formation. Plus, with the ancient gods' prohibitions as protection, it's safe. Master, please agree."
This was the truth. Lu Qingqing was extremely anxious as her breakthrough was blocked. She thought changing her location might help.
Of course, she also had her own selfish motives - if she stayed away from Feng Yingheng, her heart would probably settle down, and those inappropriate feelings might slowly die out.
When everything returns to normal, she can return to Jimu Peak and continue to practice with Feng Yingheng without distraction.
Lu Qingqing's words were well-reasoned and she had a kind heart for others, so Feng Yingheng had no choice but to agree.
"Go ahead." He uttered three words lightly.
Since the master has agreed, others have no objection.
Ji Haozhi was deeply moved. He took Lu Qingqing's hand and promised, "Master, I will remember this friendship. When Zhang Shun successfully breaks through, I will take your place immediately. I won't delay for a moment."
"I will go see you." Ji Weilan was a little reluctant, "Just like when I went to see Junior Brother Zhang."
As he spoke, he made a move to grab Lu Qingqing's hand, but Feng Yingheng pushed him away.
"Don't bother your junior sister."
Ji Weilan touched her red hands, not daring to look at Feng Yingheng. She could only complain in her heart: Why is Junior Master acting so weird today? Did he take the wrong medicine?
…
Lu Qingqing told Feng Yingheng that she wanted to set off a day earlier.
I originally thought that the master would have some complaints, but unexpectedly he agreed readily and even took out pills and spiritual fruits.
"Half is yours, and the other half can be given as a gift to an old friend."
Lu Qingqing held the things, and her eyes became hot again.
“Master…”
"Don't cry." Feng Yingheng sighed softly, "Since you've decided to defend the formation, you must be strong, understand?"
His friendly expression made Lu Qingqing want to cry even more.
I'm so useless.
She thought silently.
A handkerchief was handed to her, "You are so old, and you are still crying."
"Thank you, Master." Lu Qingqing covered her face with the handkerchief as she did before.
With each breath, the handkerchief rose and fell. This funny and cute look made Feng Yingheng couldn't help laughing.
He took off the handkerchief and wiped away the tears for his little apprentice, gently and carefully.
Lu Qingqing: ...
Damn heart, why is it beating so fast?
But she was also very clear-headed - Feng Yingheng was just caring about his apprentice, that's all.
"Master, please take care of yourself." Lu Qingqing didn't dare to look him in the eye, and her words were a little unclear. "Anyway, anyway..."
"Got it." Feng Yingheng's eyes showed a gentle look, and he patted her head. "You must be careful at the top of Donghu Mountain. If there is anything, send me a message."
"I understand, Master." Lu Qingqing bit her lip. "Then I'll leave."
After saying that, he quickly turned around and strode away.
——She was afraid that if she was even a second late, she would lose control and rush up to hug the other person, never wanting to leave.
