Poor girl is hated by everyone, villains drive her crazy

When Mu Xiaoran saw Yu Xi smiling, even though it was his first time meeting her, he felt a sense of joy similar to regaining something he had lost.

It was as if he had really become the same person as himself in the illusion.

But this is not possible.

He suppressed the sour and happy feeling in his heart and tried to stay rational.

There was no way he would allow a half-demon to be his apprentice.

I won't be nice to a half-demon either.

Everything before my eyes... is just an inexplicable illusion.

Just as I was thinking about it, Yu Xi had already entered the study.

She came in very carefully. Although she was just a tiny creature, she made no sound when she walked.

She seemed hurt.

There were faint purple patches on the wrists that were exposed between the narrow sleeves.

Mu Xiaoran couldn't control his gaze. He stared at Yu Xi's injured hand. Before he could speak, he saw Yu Xi speaking nervously:

"Master, I don't understand a lot of things when I read the book. When I absorb spiritual energy, I always feel that the speed of spiritual energy absorption is faster than the book. I don't understand why this is happening. Did I do something wrong?"

She was very nervous when she spoke, her hands were clutching the clothes at her sides, but her eyes were looking at him without avoiding, obviously trusting him very much.

Mu Xiaoran knew that it was impossible for him to teach a half-demon how to practice.

Sure enough, he said the next second:

"You just need to do what the book says, or can't you do even that?"

After hearing this, Yu Xi became even more nervous. His eyes, which had been bright and expectant, dimmed a little bit. He lowered his head slightly and his voice became a little softer:

"It's my fault... I won't do it again next time."

Seeing her depressed, Mu Xiaoran's mood also became bad for no reason.

Although she is a half-demon, she is kind and pure...you don't have to be so cold towards her.

Then he quickly said, "I heard that you haven't had a good meal for a few days?"

Yu Xi's shoulders trembled slightly.

After seeming to struggle for a long time, she raised her head and said, "Master...they all dislike me, saying that I am not a human being and not worthy of eating the food here."

Although he tried his best to hide it, Yu Xi's eyes still looked misty and a little hazy, "But, but am I not also a disciple of Xuyun Sect?"

"I will not do it again."

Mu Xiaoran said, "I will have your three meals a day delivered to you from now on. Since you know that you are not likable, don't show up in other people's sight."

He thought his words were harsh enough, but he didn't expect that after hearing his words, although Yu Xi still had tears in her eyes, her originally dim eyes became bright again, and she smiled happily, revealing a pair of small tiger teeth:

"Then I won't have to go hungry anymore? Thank you, Master! You are the best to me!"

Mu Xiaoran's heart suddenly felt as if it was being pinched, and he began to feel a sour and stinging pain.

His throat moved slightly, wanting to say something, but Yu Xi had already bowed to him politely and said happily:

"Master, I'm going to practice. I will try very hard and won't embarrass you!"

After saying that, she ran out happily, running in the sunshine-filled courtyard, and finally turned into a small dot and disappeared from sight.

Mu Xiaoran closed his eyes.

He tried to tell himself that it was all an illusion, but the overly real feelings and touches made him fall into a trance for a moment.

Everything that is happening now does not seem like an unfounded illusion, but rather like something he has experienced before.

But he was sure that he had never seen Yu Xi.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered Wen Muyin, who seemed like a different person after being resurrected.

Wen Muyin once said that if he hurt Yu Xi, he would regret it.

Just as he was about to think deeply, he heard a familiar voice coming from the sound-gathering bowl beside him. It was from a fellow Taoist:

"Elder Mu, Yuanshan Sect elder Nan Lingjun committed suicide for unknown reasons. Do you want to go and pay your respects?"

"Don't go."

Nan Lingjun was a female elder of Yuanshan Sect, and there was no friendship between him and Nan Lingjun.

"Very good, then I won't go either... By the way, when the half-demon next to you comes of age, can you give me half of the demon pill? Wouldn't it be a waste to only give it to Wen Muyin?"

Mu Xiaoran was silent for a moment.

That’s right, the demon pill was the only reason why he took in the half-demon.

"My disciple will use it first."

"Hey, hey, hey, please be flexible..."

Before the other party could finish his words, Mu Xiaoran had already cut off the spiritual power connection.

Mu Xiaoran sat quietly at the desk. At this moment, he was not thinking about why the illusion was so real, nor how to leave, but the look on Yu Xi's face when he trusted him and called him "Master".

Is it really right to treat a child who has never done anything bad as a remedy for cultivation?

But that's a half-demon, not a human...

While Mu Xiaoran was struggling in his heart, he had unknowingly forgotten that everything before him was an illusion.

He seemed to be truly living in this world, watching Yu Xi grow up little by little, from always liking to stick to him to later staying in his own place and practicing martial arts alone from dawn to dusk.

But as long as he was there, Yu Xi would definitely look at him and call him "Master" in that pleasant voice.

In other words, no matter where Yu Xi is, as long as he sees him, he will definitely show a relieved expression.

"why?"

He looked at Yu Xi, who was already eleven years old but still looked very thin, and asked, "Why do you trust me so much?"

Yu Xi was practicing martial arts with a sword. He was startled when he heard this and his movements became disordered.

But she quickly adjusted herself, first glanced at him secretly, then bit her lip, and then whispered, "Isn't it natural to trust Master? Master is the best person to me. He took me to find the sword spirit, gave me a place to live, and taught me lessons..."

She paused, hesitated, looked at him again, and then continued, "I am very grateful to Master."

Having said this, she smiled shyly while holding the sword. She seldom smiled now, but when she did smile, she was still bright and likable.

Mu Xiaoran looked away.

But the guilt in his heart made him lose his mind, and it felt like his throat was blocked and he even had difficulty swallowing.

At this time, Xuanxing Sect already knew about Yu Xi.

This means that Xi's inner elixir had been removed, and Xuanxing Sect wanted to use Xi's half-demon body as a medicine man.

By then, Yu Xi will be living a life worse than death.

Even without the Xuanxing Sect, the Songshan School and the Yaotian Sect had already set their sights on Yu Xi.

The trading chain between the five major immortal sects has matured. Yu Xi is still a minor, but her appearance has already taken shape to amaze the world. What about when she becomes an adult...

It was impossible for him to take action against the people from the Immortal Sect. He could only let Yu Xi avoid the filthiness of the Immortal Sect and watch Yu Xi grow up without knowing anything.

"Elder Mu."

During a gathering of the immortal sect, the elders of Xuanxing Sect came to discuss Yu Xi's price with him again.

As they chatted, an elder said with a smile: "By the way, do you know? Fellow Daoist Wang from Songshan Sect has a mortal Daoist partner and has a daughter."

"Daughter? I prefer son."

"Enough of you, you don't even have a Taoist partner, what are you talking about? I've seen that girl, she's lovely, and I think she'll have good talent in the future. Songshan Sect will have another genius."

Mu Xiaoran listened to their conversation, and for some reason, he suddenly said impulsively: "I also have a daughter."

He watched her grow up.

Watching her grow from a child into a graceful young lady.

Everyone was stunned and looked at him in shock.

He knew he had said the wrong thing, his face changed slightly, and he immediately stood up and left.

But at this moment he couldn't deceive himself anymore.

Yu Xi...Xier, he had unknowingly treated this child as his own.

He wants to save Xier.

Only ambergris can turn Yu Xi into a human.
