Sword Master Fengchen was simply angry with nowhere to vent his anger, and his cold gaze fell on Lu Chaomu like an ice knife.
There was nothing special about his appearance, his body was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and there was nothing special about him. His cultivation strength was neither good nor bad, and he was even more unremarkable.
How did she take a fancy to such an ordinary man and bring him back to the sect?
"He is the man you brought back."
The corners of Yu Xingwu's lips twitched. These words sounded like something else, as if she had a wild man.
"Master, did you misunderstand something? It is true that I brought Chaomu back to the sect, but he is my secret guard! I found the secret guard for myself!"
Lu Chaomu was stunned.
Secret guard?
She saved his life because she wanted him to be her secret guard.
Now he is homeless and being hunted by his enemies. Logically, he should not stay with her to avoid causing trouble for her.
But the life-saving favor had to be repaid. Since she wanted him to be her secret guard, he would be her secret guard from now on, and he would also take care of his own affairs.
"Lu Chaomu, a casual disciple, greets Sword Master Fengchen."
Lu Chaomu saluted Feng Chen respectfully and did not deny Yu Xingwu's words, thus acknowledging his identity as a secret guard.
His respect for Feng Chen was from the heart. In fact, Lu Chaomu was shocked the moment Feng Chen walked in.
Lu Chaomu was not a disciple of the immortal sect, so it was normal for him not to recognize Ye Su and Shen Zhuo when he saw them. However, as a sword cultivator, everyone knew Sword Master Fengchen.
Lu Chaomu guessed that Yu Xingwu was the direct disciple of Tianlan Sect, but he did not expect that her master was Fengchen Sword Master, who was known as the number one Sword Master.
Everyone knows that Sword Master Fengchen has three disciples. The eldest disciple is an expert in both alchemy and swordsmanship, the second disciple has the rarest thunder spiritual root, and the youngest disciple has an excellent natural spiritual root.
Not long ago, he accepted a third disciple who had five useless spiritual roots, which caused heated discussions in the world of immortal cultivation.
While eating, Lu Chaomu heard Ye Su and Shen Zhuo calling Yu Xingwu "Junior Sister", so the moment he saw Feng Chen, he knew the identities of Yu Xingwu and the other two.
Sword Master Fengchen looked at Lu Chaomu with scrutiny. When he heard the word "Chaomu" just now, the four words Chaozhaomumu popped into his mind. He even thought that Chaomu was the name Yu Xingwu gave to him when she recruited him as a secret guard.
She felt a little angry in her heart - day and night, her thoughts were so obvious to her that she was afraid that others would not know!
Now that he knew he was overthinking, his expression looked better.
As for the secret guards...
"Tianlan Sect has a top-level mountain protection formation, and Yanyun Peak is also equipped with restrictions. Tell me who can break in and endanger your life!"
"If you are really worried about your own safety, then you can live on Zhaoyao Peak, on my peak. I want to see who dares to come in and harm you!"
Yu Xingwu was stunned. These words clearly told her that she was not allowed to keep secret guards around her.
System: "Ahhhh! Host, you must find a way to keep Lu Chaomu here! It's all the host's fault for not doing enough for the male protagonist, otherwise the male protagonist would definitely agree to let Lu Chaomu stay!"
Yu Xingwu: ...Is this a matter of a bowl of rice?
I don’t know and I don’t dare to ask.
An idea suddenly struck him, and he instantly became possessed by the spirit of acting. He took a step forward, grabbed the sleeve that was sealed, and began to act: "Woo woo woo, Master, please listen to my story. No, please listen to me!"
“There is a saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place, and similarly, the safest place is also the most dangerous place!”
"Tianlan Sect is safe, and Master's Zhaoyao Peak is so safe that not even a male fly can fly into it. But so what? Didn't Yu Yuefu still get beaten up by the spirit beasts and was seriously injured?!"
The atmosphere froze for a moment, and the four of them were thinking about Yu Xingwu's words.
Sword Master Fengchen: You sharp-tongued traitor, I can’t even respond to you!
Ye Su: So this is the reason why Junior Sister kept Lu Chaomu by her side.
It seemed that the junior sister was indeed frightened during the day, but he only realized it now. No wonder the junior sister felt that the sect was not good and always wanted to leave. It was because they did not care about the junior sister enough.
Shen Zhuo: If I didn’t know that Lu Chaomu could be useful to you, I would really believe that you were scared.
Lu Chaomu: It turns out that even if you live in a top sect, danger is everywhere. He will fulfill his duties as a secret guard and protect her safety.
System: "6, there is nothing wrong with what the host said! The host is really smart!"
Yu Xingwu was so into the role, and seeing that Feng Chen didn't say anything, she continued to act hard: "Master, when I think of Yu Yuefu being knocked away by the donkey and kicked and trampled by other spirit beasts, my legs become weak with fear!"
"It was because of Yu Yuefu's experience that I left the sect and found myself a secret guard. With Lu Chaomu protecting me in secret, I feel more at ease wherever I go!"
"Master, you have always hated to see me and my brothers get hurt. Just for my safety, will you agree to let Lu Chaomu stay and protect me secretly?"
"Master Yunci doesn't know about this yet. If he knew, he might arrange another secret guard for me. Master, you are the Grand Master, you don't want to lose to Master Yunci, right?!"
System: “…” This system is tired of saying the word 6.
Yu Xingwu still understands Feng Chen to some extent. Although the male and female protagonists now have a romantic relationship, Feng Chen still treats her the same as before.
So she first acted like a disciple and then compared herself with her master, because she didn't believe that Feng Chen would not agree.
Sword Master Fengchen lowered his eyes slightly. He was no longer thinking about whether he should agree to let Lu Chaomu stay, but was thinking - the traitor actually pulled his sleeve in order to keep him.
The last time the traitor poured him tea, she was thinking about touching his hand. Now she is getting bolder and bolder and even dares to touch him directly.
Yu Xingwu didn't think so. When she was acting excited, the sleeves were just a prop to help her perform.
But when she noticed Feng Chen's gaze on her hand, she immediately let go of Feng Chen's sleeve, and did not forget to straighten the sleeve that was wrinkled by her, looking like a good disciple who was respectful to her master.
"Well, Master, if you don't say anything I will take it as your consent! Thank you, good Master, for considering my life!"
Sword Master Fengchen stared at his still wrinkled sleeves, and after hearing the words "good master", he showed a compromising expression.
Forget it, it was rare for her to talk to him like this. Although it was very irritating to bring up Yun Ci, he really couldn't lose to Yun Ci!
As for the secret guard, just let her be. The Yin-Yang mark is on her body, so it is a good thing to have someone protecting her secretly.
He still needs to investigate this person's identity.
"This time, I will agree to your decision. But next time, you must inform me before making a decision. Do not make decisions without my knowledge."
Yu Xingwu was delighted when she heard this and quickly nodded and said yes.
Feng Chen got up and left, but before leaving he saw the empty bowls on the table.
The cold voice said calmly: "When it is ready, send it to the master tomorrow."
After saying this, he walked out of the hall and flew away on his sword.
Yu Xingwu: “…” If she cooked one more bowl of rice, would she be able to keep Lu Chaomu without so much effort?
