Chapter 19: Become a Master and a Disciple
Xiao Liyue looked at him and couldn't help but sigh secretly, this boy is so handsome now, if he grows up, he will definitely be more handsome than the male protagonist Mo Jingxuan.
However, she simply admired his looks and did not speak up to compete for this genius like the other elders. Instead, she leisurely ate snacks, looking as if it had nothing to do with her.
As a result, the young man looked at her coldly and whispered: "Disciple Yu Fengchen is willing to take Ninth Elder Xiao Liyue as his master."
"Puff... cough cough..." Xiao Liyue was frightened when she heard the three words "Yu Fengchen". The snack that had just entered her mouth got stuck in her throat, choking her so much that tears came out.
Seeing this, Wei Zisu immediately poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her, patting her on the back and saying, "Ninth Elder, drink some tea."
Xiao Liyue thanked him with tears in her eyes, took the teacup, and drank from it in big gulps, finally washing down the snack stuck in her throat.
Then she slammed the table reflexively, "I don't want to..."
When everyone heard her say no, they were shocked.
The Great Elder showed displeasure, "What nonsense are you talking about, girl Yue? He has a mutated spiritual root, and you actually said you don't want to."
When the other elders heard this, they all thought she was stupid. For someone with her useless cultivation level, to have such a talented disciple was simply a great fortune, a blessing earned through several lifetimes of cultivation, and yet she still refused.
And Yu Fengchen has good talent, but he is too short-sighted. He actually wants to choose Xiao Liyue, a person with useless spiritual roots, as his master. He is a typical person with talent but no brains.
The Third Elder stood up and said, "Yu Fengchen, right? The Ninth Elder's cultivation is low, you won't learn anything from her, it's better to take us as your teachers."
"That's right. All the elders present here are stronger than her. You have to think it over carefully." said the Sixth Elder.
Liu Ruxi couldn't believe her ears. Yu Fengchen actually chose Xiao Liyue, who had the lowest cultivation level, as his master. It was such a waste of his talent.
Xiao Liyue looked towards Yu Fengchen, only to see that he was also looking at her with cold eyes, without a trace of emotion in them, which made her feel a chill.
But think about it, the original owner destroyed his spiritual roots in the later period. If she didn't harm him in the future, the things that happened later would never happen, so she felt that her worry was unnecessary.
So she smiled awkwardly, cleared her throat and said, "Ahem... I didn't finish what I was saying just now. What I wanted to say is that it would be strange if I didn't want to, haha... Don't get me wrong! After all, I'm so happy to have such a talented little apprentice!"
Seeing this, the Great Elder shook his head helplessly, "What a fool you are, can't you finish your words in one go? Someone who doesn't know would think you really don't want to."
"Haha...how could that be! That's not the case." Xiao Liyue waved her hands and glanced at Yu Fengchen awkwardly.
Yu Fengchen had a blank expression on his face, just staring at her quietly, because he was the only one who saw that there was a hint of fear and resistance in her eyes just now, so she blurted out "I don't want to."
This made Yu Fengchen's eyes become more solemn, and he became more and more certain of her changes in the past year. She might even be reborn like him, otherwise she would not have said she was unwilling. You know, in his previous life, Xiao Liyue competed with Liu Ruxi to take him as a disciple, and even offered many tempting conditions, so he was moved and chose her as his master.
He thought that by choosing her, the sect leader's daughter, he would be protected by the sect leader in the future, but it turned out to be just the beginning of his descent into hell.
That’s right, Yu Fengchen was reborn. You should know that in his previous life, after her extracted his spiritual roots and gave them to Mo Jingxuan, he began to practice magic with Su Jiuji, and in the end he also abolished Xiao Liyue’s spiritual roots.
After abolishing her, he devoted himself to cultivation, wanting only to surpass Mo Jingxuan and get his spiritual roots back.
Unexpectedly, Mo Jingxuan obtained his own spiritual roots and his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. In just a thousand years, he became the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal World.
In the battle between him and himself in the fairyland, although he successfully took out his spiritual root from Mo Jingxuan's body and destroyed it in front of him, he was also seriously injured and was ambushed by Liu Ruxi, and finally killed by Mo Jingxuan's three wives.
If he were to live his life over again, he would naturally not allow the people who hurt him to live well.
Now that he has been reborn, Mo Jingxuan has no chance of defeating him since he does not have his own mutated spiritual roots.
Xiao Liyue glanced at Yu Fengchen, who looked solemn. She always felt that her new disciple seemed to be very dissatisfied with her. Could it be that her rejection just now hurt his young heart? Thinking of this, she felt extremely guilty.
How could she have a prejudice against him because of something that hadn't happened in the book? Thinking this way, she slowly accepted Yu Fengchen. You know, he was actually quite pitiful. His spiritual roots were taken away by his respected master, and he became a waste. In the end, he became a demon because of hatred.
While she was still thinking, the Great Elder winked at her, signaling her to go down.
She reacted, stood up immediately, and walked towards Yu Fengchen with trepidation.
Xiao Liyue took out the space ring that Su Jiuji had given her, and a storage ring from the diamond-shaped space. There were many spirit stones and various elixirs in them. She then picked out a spirit sword that suited him. She wanted to use these things to compensate Yu Fengchen.
Xiao Liyue looked at Yu Fengchen with a smile: "I'm so sorry! I didn't really reject you just now, I was just a little excited. Also, these are some gifts from your master. There are some spirit stones, pills, and some cultivation techniques in them. Just accept them!" After saying that, she handed the things to him.
Yu Fengchen looked at her guilty eyes, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. When did she become so kind? However, his eyes were immediately attracted by the space ring in her hand. He was surprised and accepted it without hesitation.
He thanked her coldly, "Thank you, Master."
"Haha...as long as you like it." Xiao Liyue said with a smile.
Seeing that he liked it very much, Xiao Liyue felt relieved a little.
When the people in the hall saw what she gave, their eyes widened.
"It turns out to be a top-grade Holy Spirit Sword. The Ninth Elder is really willing to spend a lot of money on it." Chu Mingyou exclaimed.
The second elder knocked his forehead hard, "Has your grandfather been bad to you? Don't you also have a top-grade Holy Spirit Sword? What is there to envy?"
Chu Mingyou rubbed his head and smiled helplessly. "Yes, yes, Grandpa, you are the best to me."
"Hmph...it's enough for you kid to know me best." The second elder snorted arrogantly.
Nangong Yu, who was watching the funny grandfather and grandson from the side, was also amused.
And Xiao Liyue was also envied by everyone. A useless elder actually received a disciple with a mutated spiritual root. It was such a waste of talent.
On the way back, Xiao Liyue took Yu Fengchen, who was silent, back to her palace. I remember the original owner in the book, because she didn't like him very much, she deliberately arranged him in the most remote house.
From then on, whenever she was in a bad mood, she would either beat or scold him. Thinking of this, she felt that the original owner was such a bad person. No wonder Yu Fengchen hated her so much.
So in order to show her importance to him, Xiao Liyue directly took Yu Fengchen to the room next to hers.
Her delicate jade finger pointed at the door and said to him very gently, "Little Chenchen! From now on, you can live in the room next to mine! If you have any questions or needs in cultivation in the future, just tell me, Master."
Yu Fengchen stood at the door of the room, startled by her excessive tenderness, and his thoughts went back to the past. She used to arrange him in the most remote small room with an impatient look on her face, and warned him not to step into her residence without her permission, otherwise she would destroy him.
But now she arranged me to stay in the room next to her. When had I ever been treated like this and had received such an attitude in my previous life? So was she making up for what she had done to him in her previous life?
Yu Fengchen looked at her coldly, as if he was looking through her eyes to see what tricks she was playing. After watching for a long time, he walked in without saying a word.
Xiao Liyue felt a chill down her spine when she saw his deep and cold eyes.
"Damn... this kid's eyes are so cold and scary. He's only thirteen years old, but he's already so cautious. He deserves to be the future villain." Xiao Liyue muttered softly and went back to her room.
Yu Fengchen, who was hiding behind the door, was even more confused about what she said. If she was really reborn like himself, then why did her personality become so strange and her speaking style was completely different from before.
Xiao Liyue seemed to no longer be the Xiao Liyue she used to be, but who was she now? Why did she know her own name but not me?
And if she was reborn, her first reaction when she saw me that night should not be the look of seeing a stranger, but today when she heard my name, she looked incredible and surprised, why is that? All kinds of doubts made Yu Fengchen fall into deep thought again.
