Hard to be a master

After finally breaking through the long-challenging sword formation, the two teenagers' reactions were a little dull, as if they had just completed a daily task.The two of them were not in a hurry to go to the peak to have a look. Instead, they sat on the ground on the steps at the entrance of the mountain, exchanging swords and chatting while watching.

After exchanging each other's new spirit swords, Zi Lan took the spirit jade handed back by Shen Ziliu with one hand, and handed Tunxiang to him with the other hand, sighed and said: "Today, I broke this sword array and got another high-grade spirit sword , we can finally formally enter Wujian Peak. Brother Shen, there is nothing to worry about, Master Rou Qing must have been waiting for you for a long time, but my future is still uncertain."

Shen Ziliu glanced at him, and said, "Who told you that I'm going to worship Rouqing as a disciple?"

Zi Lan was surprised and said: "Since Brother Shen has chosen to become a sword cultivator, and Master Rou Qing is the No. Isn't it a matter of course?"

Shen Ziliu said with a blank face: "I said two years ago that I only have one master in this life, and I will never worship other people as my teacher."

Zi Lan was shocked for a while before slowly saying: "I always thought that you have been reluctant to worship Rou Qing as your teacher because you wanted to prove yourself through the sword array first. ..."

Seeing that Shen Ziliu's eyes instantly turned cold, Zi Lan shut his mouth embarrassingly.

Shen Ziliu looked at Zi Lan with a burning gaze, and said in a cold tone: "So what if you're not a swordsman? What if you're just a real person? To me, my master is the best master in the world, and no one can compare to him."

Seeing that Shen Ziliu was angry, Zi Lan hurriedly said: "Brother Shen, don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to underestimate Mr. Guan. I just think that there is a specialization in martial arts. If Brother Shen can get the guidance of Rou Qing, the master of swordsmanship, you will be able to get rid of it. Progress on the road must be faster than anyone."

Shen Ziliu's expression slowed down, he sneered, and said, "I don't care about how far and how fast I can go in the practice of swordsmanship, whether there is any guidance from Master Rouqing. Originally, my purpose of worshiping Kunlun was to become a swordsman." , just different from you."

Zi Lan had heard a little about Guan Jingxuan's rescue of Shen Ziliu, so she automatically interpreted Shen Ziliu's maintenance and closeness to Guan Jingxuan as his gratitude to his savior and dependence on his elders, so she didn't feel too much when she heard Shen Ziliu's remarks. surprise.

After thinking about it for a moment, Zi Lan asked, "Brother Shen, has it ever occurred to you that maybe Mr. Guan hopes that you can make some achievements in practice?"

Shen Ziliu was silent, as if he suddenly thought of something, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and said: "Master's expectation of me is not in practice."

After hearing this, Zi Lan showed surprise, and said, "Is that so? Then why did Mr. Guan choose the longest three months for the trial period of the Water Moon Illusion that Mr. Guan applied for?"

Shen Ziliu heard that the expression of surprise on his face was even worse than that of Zi Lan, his hand holding Tunxiang suddenly tightened, and he frowned and said, "Water Moon Illusion?"

Zi Lan saw that he looked completely ignorant, and immediately realized that she might have said something wrong.However, what you say is like water poured out, and Shen Ziliu obviously won't let him perfunctory easily, so he had to say cautiously: "Brother Shen... don't you know? Kunlun will open the illusion of water and moon twice a year. Cultivators who enter the trial must register in advance. The first opening of this year's Water Moon Illusion will be three days later. When I went to register about half a month ago, I happened to see Mr. Guan registering for you and leaving. I thought you knew Woolen cloth……"

After hearing Zi Lan's words, Shen Ziliu's face was so cold that it could drop ice scum. After a moment of silence, his face turned ashen and said: "Master has never mentioned a word to me about the Water Moon Illusion."

Zi Lan wiped her face, smiled stiffly and said, "Maybe Mr. Guan is planning to tell you after you get the spirit sword, but it's just not in time..."

A black storm was brewing in Shen Ziliu's eyes, and he said coldly, "It's been several days since I got Tunxiang, and Master still hasn't mentioned a word."

"Uh……"

Zi Lan searched her brains for a while but couldn't think of any reason to defend Guan Jingxuan. When she was racking her brains, she saw Shen Ziliu get up abruptly, and said to him expressionlessly: "I'm going back today. I'm a member of Wujian Peak. I'm not in a hurry, if you want to visit Venerable Rouqing, you can do it anytime, don't wait for me."

Before Zi Lan opened her mouth to sink Ziliu, she summoned Zhiqiu Yufeng and left, her movements were flowing and flowing, fast and steady, without any trace of the anxious Yufeng performance when she was with Guan Jingxuan.Zi Lan watched Shen Ziliu's figure disappear into the clouds in a blink of an eye, and could only silently pray for Guan Jingxuan.

Guan Jingxuan woke up leisurely after sleeping until the sky was completely dark. Before he opened his eyes, he noticed the heavy breath nearby, only when the child came over to act like a baby with him again, he closed his eyes and stretched comfortably Then slowly opened his eyes.Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a face full of resentment, Guan Jingxuan's heart suddenly "thumped", and before the other party opened his mouth, he was already guilty.

At this time, there was no light in the bedroom, and the moonlight coming in from the window was not very bright, so everything in the room seemed dim.As monks, both Guan Jingxuan and Shen Ziliu have excellent eyesight, and they can see each other clearly even in such light, especially Shen Ziliu's scorching black eyes full of unknown emotions, which are bright even in the dark Some creepy.

After the master and apprentice looked at each other silently for a while in the dark, it was Guan Jingxuan who couldn't hold back the first, and sat up from the couch while waving his hand to light the candlestick on the desk, pretending to be calm and said: "What is Xiaoliu?" When did you come back? What time is it now?"

Shen Ziliu, who was sitting by the couch, didn't answer immediately, but just stared at Guan Jingxuan.Guan Jingxuan was very uncomfortable being stared at by his sharp eyes, coughed lightly and said, "Xiao Liu?"

Shen Ziliu suddenly raised the corners of his lips slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes, and he said softly, "It is now three quarters of Xu Shi, three days before the opening of the Water Moon Illusion."

Guan Jingxuan glanced at Shen Ziliu with a guilty conscience, laughed dryly, and said, "You already know..."

Seeing Guan Jingxuan's appearance, Shen Ziliu felt that the fire in his heart was burning hotter, but his face became calmer, and he said in a deep voice: "If I don't ask, when will Master tell me? When it comes time to enter the illusion? Or are you not going to tell me at all?"

After living together for more than two years, Guan Jingxuan has already figured out Shen Ziliu's temper. Looking at him like this, he knew that he was really angry. After sighing in his heart, he said softly: "How could it be? Find the right opportunity to tell you."

Shen Ziliu looked at him silently, obviously not accepting this reason.

Guan Jingxuan thought for a while, and then said: "Xiaoliu, you are different from my teacher. You are very talented in cultivating immortals, and you are also very hardworking. My teacher hopes that you can get the best guidance and training, so that you can show your true strength. , and don't limit your immortal journey because of your lack of ability as a teacher."
