After Xuan Yue left, Xiao Ming stood silently for a long time holding the sword in his hand.

He finally realized that his previous feelings did not seem to be fantasies made out of nothing. After he did those things and said those words, Xuan Yue still liked him—even if only a little bit, which really made Xiao Ming feel inexplicably incredible , can not understand.

People are really different... Xiao Ming was so disturbed that he couldn't help shaking his head.

Is it the real him that Xuan Yue likes now?Or is he still indulging in the illusion he once created?And what did he think about Xuan Yue?

Xiao Ming doesn't understand what love is, what liking is, he has never had time to think about such extravagant things, how to survive, how to gain stronger power, and how to climb up step by step, this has taken up all his energy .

Outsiders see that he and Xuanyue are very affectionate and their love is stronger than gold, it is just that Xiao Ming is imitating Xuanyue's attitude towards him.Xiao Ming knew that he was somewhat dependent on Xuanyue, because the other party was the first person to give him a sense of security, and he also owed Xuanyue because the other party was the first to show him pure goodwill—and to rely on, Are guilt and love the same thing?

Xiao Ming tried to get Xuanyue to forgive himself because he did not want to have such a powerful enemy, and also because of his guilt and dependence on Xuanyue. Of course, he probably did not reject Xuanyue if he could be with Xuanyue for a hundred years. However, Xiao Ming was not sure that he could equally respond to Xuan Yue's feelings.

Of course, Xiao Ming can naturally respond without any scruples, put on the mask of affection like before, and then use the east wind of Xuan Yue to stand tall again in the cultivation world, but how long can he keep such a mask?

Xuanyue is indeed taciturn and quiet, but he is not stupid. His cultivation of transforming gods has also made his senses sharper and his mind more transparent.Now, in Xiao Ming's hands, there is no Gu worm in his hands that can make Xuan Yue so fanatical that he ignores all abnormalities, and the other party has already known his true face, it is impossible to be defenseless against him, Xiao Ming cannot guarantee that he will not be seen through by Xuan Yue , and then become enemies with each other again.

...Look, this is him. When he confirmed that Xuan Yue still has feelings for him, his first reaction was how to use him. For an indifferent and selfish guy like him, it is better to stay away from Xuan Yue.

Xiao Ming raised the corners of his mouth in a self-deprecating manner, but finally hesitantly put the long sword in his hand back into the storage ring.

Xuan Yue is probably still bewildered by the nearly a hundred years of getting along with each other, after all, the habits left over from such a long time cannot be erased in a short time.

For Xuanyue's sake, as well as for his own sake, Xiao Ming felt that it would be more appropriate for the relationship between the two of them to stop at "friendship". Xuanyue has always been determined, and after a long time, he will get rid of the strange feelings at the moment, right?

Having made up his mind, Xiao Ming stepped out of the rockery, but his mood was already terrible, and this bad feeling intensified even more when he saw his little apprentice being bullied.

Xiao Ming lowered his face and flicked his sleeves to dissipate the coercion of the Jindan cultivator opposite Lu Tianyu. His voice was cold and gloomy: "What does this fellow Taoist mean? Isn't it a little bit uncomfortable to bully the small like this?" kind?"

Standing in front of Lu Tianyu, Xiao Ming glanced at him to comfort him, then ignored the sparkling eyes of his little apprentice, and cast his eyes on the half-white-haired Jindan cultivator opposite.

This cultivator is at the peak of Jindan, a little stronger than Xiao Ming, but he is not afraid of it. After all, it is not like Xiao Ming has never done such things as killing people by leaping over the ranks.When I was a casual cultivator, there were many cultivators who were not courageous enough and always liked to bully weak persimmons who were lower than their own realm, and Xiao Ming's cultivation base was poor, so it happened that he was always chosen as prey by this group of cowardly guys , It is almost commonplace for the weak to defeat the strong.

This Jindan cultivator was named Zhou Wu, and Xiao Ming knew him well. The Xuanji Sect belonged to a middle-level sect, and there were two Nascent Soul True Monarchs in it. It is the most important one, and Zhou Wu has been in the realm of Jindan Dzogchen for some time, the real essence is strong, and he is only one step away from the broken pill becoming a baby, and Xuanjimen has high hopes-if another Nascent Soul can be produced Zhenjun, the status of Xuanji Gate will be further improved.

Obviously, Zhou Wu has been high above the top for a long time, and he completely dismissed Xiao Ming, who can't wait for the "middle stage" cultivator of Jindan, he glanced at Xiao Ming indifferently, as if he was looking at an ant: "Who are you, this kid?" ?”

"I am his master." Xiao Ming's eyes darkened, "I don't know what this fellow Taoist has to teach?"

"See the teacher? Of course!" Zhou Wu flicked his sleeves, "Your apprentice injured my apprentice! Shouldn't I come here to ask for an explanation?!"

"It was his disciple who provoked him first!" Lu Tianyu gritted his teeth, "I just didn't want to sit still and had to fight back! Many people present at that time can prove it!"

"However, it's a fact that my disciple was seriously injured!" Zhou Wu looked sullen, and charged towards Lu Tianyu with a savage aura, but was blocked by Xiao Ming again.

"It's because his skills are inferior to others!" With the support of his master, Lu Tianyu's courage suddenly became bolder, and he refuted it.

"Then if the old man hurts you, you are considered inferior to others, right?" Zhou Wu sneered, and Lu Tianyu was stunned for a moment by the other party's shamelessness, "You are——"

"Okay, Tianyu." Xiao Ming raised his hand and stroked Lu Tianyu's head, interrupted gently, "Don't you know the rules of the cultivation world?"

Lu Tianyu: "????"

Not catching up with his master's train of thought for a while, Lu Tianyu was a little dazed and looked at Xiao Ming blankly.

Xiao Ming smiled slightly: "The rule in the cultivation world is 'If you hit the young one, the old one will come'. If you hit his apprentice, the master will naturally come to find a place. There is no reason to say."

Zhou Wu: "..."

Lu Tianyu: "..."

——Hehe, Master, you are so sincere.

"They have already settled the matter between the apprentices. Since you, as a master, are here to find a place, it is natural that I, the master, should respond. Why do you use the big to bully the small, making it so ugly and making people laugh in vain." The words in the inscription are gentle and kind, but imply sharp thorns, which made Zhou Wu's complexion turn pale from time to time.

"Okay, since you want to take it on behalf of your disciple, this old man will help you!" Zhou Wu gritted his teeth and sneered, with breath floating all over his body, obviously impatient to teach the brazen kid in front of him a lesson.

The coercion of the golden core peak was finally released. Even though Xiao Ming used his true energy to resist, he couldn't help but turn pale. He even needed to devote some energy to protecting his weak little apprentice who was only in the foundation establishment stage.

Seeing Xiao Ming's pale face, Lu Tianyu remembered that his master was only in the mid-Gold Core stage, no matter how powerful he was and possessed a rare treasure, it was difficult to make up for the gap in realm.For a moment, Lu Tianyu panicked, and secretly blamed himself for being overwhelmed by the favor of his master and the admiration of everyone in the Tianxuan Sect during this period of time. In a moment of anger, he stabbed such a big basket, and even caused Master to be involved in disasters and made enemies.

Lu Tianyu's originally vain and volatile mind due to his youth suddenly settled down, and his state of mind has obviously improved a lot, but the current Xiao Ming doesn't have the energy to pay attention to these.

Even if he won the Lingxiao Palace, Xiao Ming's cultivation base is still not as good as Zhou Wu's because of the time. Even if he has a rare treasure, it is impossible for him to sacrifice it in public and make people covet it—or, in other words, Xiao Ming also didn't think Zhou Wu was worth the risk of his treasure being coveted.

Although the whole body was suppressed by the other party's coercion, it was difficult to move, and even the muscles and bones were slightly creaking, but Xiao Ming's expression was still calm, and he even hooked the corners of his lips: "This fellow daoist, are you sure you want to move?" Do it here?"

Zhou Wu's breath stagnated, and his mind, which had been irritated by Xiao Ming just now, suddenly sobered up, and finally remembered where he was now.

Fighting between disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage is not a big deal, but conflicts between Golden Core cultivators are different.After all, most of the disciples around here are Foundation Establishment disciples, and the coercion leaked by Jindan cultivators when they fight is enough to hurt them. If this causes the dissatisfaction of Luoshuizong, then he will become the sinner of the entire sect .

Gritting his teeth, Zhou Wu finally withdrew his coercion, and stared at Xiao Ming as if he was looking at a corpse: "I'll forgive you now, boy, after this big competition, I will come to ask for advice!"

"Zhao Han of the Tianxuan Sect, waiting for this fellow Taoist." Xiao Ming cupped his hands slightly, seemingly neither overbearing nor humble, but contemptuous, piercing the other party very annoyed, but he had to hold back.

Seeing Zhou Wu throwing his sleeves and leaving, Xiao Ming's gentle eyes flashed a trace of hostility - he can't do anything in public, but if he troubles him in private, then he has countless ways to deal with him.The only headache is that after cleaning up this person, I don't know whether other people with higher cultivation levels will be attracted, so this ending method needs to be thought about.

Xiao Ming recalled the information about Zhou Wu and Xuanjimen in his mind, but suddenly felt his sleeves being tugged lightly, and then remembered that he had forgotten his little apprentice.

Turning his head, Xiao Ming was looking at Lu Tianyu's apprehensive and self-blaming eyes, and raised his eyebrows clearly: "I know I'm wrong?"

"Disciple knows his mistake." It was rare for Lu Tianyu not to be coquettish, but solemnly saluted Xiao Ming as a disciple, "It's because this disciple acted too arrogantly and forgot to be cautious."

Xiao Ming nodded in satisfaction: "If you encounter this kind of thing again in the future, what should you do?"

"...Admit defeat on the surface, and solve it in private, so as not to leave any future trouble." Lu Tianyu's eyes flickered slightly, and his voice was ruthless and decisive.

Xiao Ming: "..."

Sighing for a while, the little apprentice really inherited his mantle, Xiao Ming raised his hand and patted him on the head: "Actually, it's not entirely your fault, after all, there were other Luoshuizong disciples by your side at the time, so if you admit defeat too simply , On the contrary, it will damage your prestige. Besides, it is not a bad thing to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, but if you are too weak, then besides wolves, wild dogs will come over to bite you beyond their means, which will be more troublesome. Specifically Analyzing the situation in detail, if the opponent's cultivation base is better than yours, you can try your best to resist and then pretend to be invincible, and if the opponent's cultivation base is inferior to yours, you don't need to attack too hard, at least let the opponent leave completely. As for the follow-up to resolve it in private, if there is suspicion, there is reason to shirk."

Lu Tianyu: "...the disciple has been taught."

Silently surprised by his master's "rich" experience for a moment, Lu Tianyu raised his head and looked at Xiao Ming, with a bit of puzzlement in his tone: "But the previous actions of the master do not seem to be in line with what you said, it is... …for what?"

Xiao Ming's complexion that had improved suddenly sank again, and he waved his hands perfunctorily: "It's just that I'm in a bad mood, and I'm too lazy to make false claims with others."

Lu Tianyu closed his mouth obediently, and did not continue to annoy his master, but his mind became active.

Although he wanted to narcissistically think that Master was angry because he was being bullied, but Lu Tianyu was very self-aware. He understood Xiao Ming's endurance, and there were very few things that could cause him to have excessive emotional fluctuations— —Except for that person, Xuan Yue.

Contacted that the organizer of the Zongmen Grand Competition this time was Luoshuizong, Lu Tianyu probably understood something, he curled his lips in his heart, and slandered Xuan Yue's ghost, it seemed that every time he met this guy, his master The mood is always not high.

In the little black book in his heart, he made another note for Xuan Yue, Lu Tianyu obediently followed Xiao Ming's pace, and decided to be more obedient during the Zongmen Grand Competition, so as not to cause any trouble -- of course, the more important thing The most important thing is to stay by his master's side every step of the way, so as not to let that damned Xuan Yue run over again to gain any sense of existence.

With such a decision in his heart, Lu Tianyu did the same. Except for a few competitions where he needed to go on stage, Lu Tianyu followed Xiao Ming all the way, and Xiao Ming also took the opportunity to explain to him the methods of fighting monks on stage, which made Lu Tianyu win the prize. Benefit a lot.

Although there is no opponent in the Tianxuan Sect, there are people outside the people, and there is a sky outside the sky. Lu Tianyu's opponents are also elite disciples carefully selected by various sects, so it is naturally difficult to deal with them.However, Lu Tianyu has the momentum of becoming more and more courageous when he is frustrated. If his opponent is strong, he will also become stronger. The young cultivator who was attracting people's attention made all the elders of Tianxuan Sect happy and excited.

However, compared to the dazzling Lu Tianyu, Xiao Ming's performance as a master is much more ordinary.He has no intention of showing off, he just intends to pass this big competition dutifully, which is nothing but merit.

He wins well against opponents whose cultivation level is lower than his own; against opponents with the same cultivation level as his own, he struggles and barely wins; enough.Xiao Ming had a great time paddling in the Grand Competition, but unexpectedly, in the eyes of others, his actions turned out to be incompetent and weak, so he was once again regarded as a soft persimmon.

When Xiao Ming stood on the stage again, but found that the extremely familiar opponent was grinning at him with malicious eyes, he silently gave a "tsk" in his heart.
