Pure Yang Demon Zun is cultivating

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Hearing this sentence, Li Zhao was stunned for a long time before opening his mouth, with a trace of helplessness in his brows: "Every time Master disappears so suddenly, I have too many things to ask after the Taihua Immortal Sect is farewell. However In the past 50 years, I have also obtained some clues several times, but every time I can't catch up..."

In the past 50 years, Gu Ziyan has spent all his time in various secret realms. He has been tossing and turning between the secret realms that have been opened and those that are about to begin. It can be said that he has traveled almost every corner of the Nine Heavens Continent.Every time he stayed in the last secret realm for enough time according to the scroll of blueprints given to him by Tianji Sanxian, and at the same time, after collecting all the important treasures of heaven and earth, Gu Ziyan would immediately rush to the next secret realm.

The aura in the secret realm is often purer than other places. With that volume of blueprints, Gu Ziyan just spent 50 years breaking through from the Jindan realm to the Nascent Soul realm, and now his cultivation has reached the stage of transformation .

So even if Li Zhao has been sending people to look for him, it is impossible to find him.

Speaking of the farewell to the Taihua Xianzong, Gu Ziyan also felt a little sorry in his heart. He originally planned to find a suitable time in the future, and then slowly talk to Li Zhao about the reasons for the incident.It's just that a series of things happened later, so that he was so focused on his cultivation that he didn't have the heart to think about it, so the procrastination took too long.It wasn't until a while ago that he passed by a city near the Cangming Sect, and happened to see a natural phenomenon, wind and thunder rising from the Cangming Sect, and then he remembered that Li Zhaohua's divine period had come to an end, and it was about a few days before he crossed the catastrophe .

But since it was a tribulation, Gu Ziyan stayed in the city for a few more days so as not to disturb him.

After the vision above the sky gradually disappeared, Gu Ziyan set off to return to Cangming Sect.After Li Zhao has passed the catastrophe, he will enter the catastrophe period mainly to absorb spiritual energy. Who knows how long this period will last?If Gu Ziyan went to a few more secret realms, he might not be able to see Li Zhao's face during the time he came and went.

Hearing Li Zhao's grievance-like tone, Gu Ziyan raised his brows: "I'm coming back to look for you, I think you must have nothing to do during the time of your tribulation, and it's the right time to come back now."

"No matter when Master comes back, it's just right." Although Li Zhao felt a little helpless, he thought that seeing Gu Ziyan again in the last period of time would be his last wish fulfilled.

In his life, aside from what happened when he was young, the following days can be regarded as smooth sailing.Even if you encounter difficulties occasionally, misfortune and blessing always depend on each other, and you can get what you want in the end.He encountered many adventures, and his practice improved much faster than others, and even the revival of Cang Ming Sect seemed to be a matter of course.Among all the things, the only thing that can be regarded as regrettable is probably Gu Ziyan.

In fact, counting it, it was only ten years since Li Zhao and Gu Ziyan got along with each other in Cang Ming Sect.But Li Zhao always remembered that when he was led to this dormitory, Gu Ziyan's expression was cold, but his movements were gentle.

When Li Zhao was young, he was murdered and hunted down one after another. Even before these two incidents, he had never received any care from his parents who were at odds with each other.

To this day, he can still recall the scene when he met Gu Ziyan for the first time - at that time, Gu Ziyan walked towards him step by step, exuding an indifferent but powerful aura, then Gu Ziyan slightly lowered his head and held Li Zhao's wrist .His appearance was already very deceiving, he was clearly a Demon Lord, but he had a pair of light-colored facial features, coupled with a head of white hair, it made people feel fairy-like.

It was just such a face, coupled with the gentle movements that stayed on Li Zhao's wrist for a long time, made Gu Ziyan's first impression of Li Zhao very high.Even though it was later discovered that Gu Ziyan raised his wrist to test his aptitude, it didn't prevent this impression from continuing.

At that time, Gu Ziyan had just come into this world. Even though his face was trying to play a cold role, he was habitually light on body contact.After all, he was facing a child who was only around his waist, and Li Zhao was too thin at that time, so Gu Ziyan, as a normal person, would naturally lower his movements subconsciously.

After a while, Gu Ziyan said, "From today onwards, you are my disciple."

In the next ten years, Gu Ziyan was due to systematic reasons and rarely saw Li Zhao.Occasionally, when they meet each other, they always give a few harsh words. Li Zhao was a little disheartened at first, but later when he always found something in the room by chance, he understood something.Although Li Zhao couldn't guess the reason for Gu Ziyan's two diametrically opposed behaviors, as long as he knew that Master still cared about him in his heart, Li Zhao was already very satisfied.

He originally thought that it would be good to continue living like this, although Master always seemed to be closer to Lin Jing.

Then one day, Li Zhao had a conflict with Lin Jing because of some things.The two fought, although Lin Jing's cultivation was relatively high, but because of several adventures in the past, Li Zhao insisted on fighting Lin Jing and hurting both sides.That day Lin Jing felt ashamed and didn't want to be found out by others, so he left Cangming Sect and went outside to recuperate.As a result, Li Zhao had the opportunity to replace Lin Jing's previous position.

If Li Zhao knew at that time that Lin Jing had decided to completely betray Gu Ziyan based on this incident, then he would have killed Lin Jing first even if he tried his best.

It was not until a long time later that Li Zhao slowly found out.When Lin Jing left Cangming Sect to recuperate from his wounds, he met Shen Yue who had sneaked into Cangming Sect for a period of time, and after Shen Yue revealed his identity, he came into contact with Xuanhuai through her.Many people know that the only son of Xuanhuai, the law enforcement elder of Taihua Xianzong, died under Cangyan Mozun many years ago, so he can be said to have a sworn hatred against Gu Ziyan.

Because of Li Zhao's incident, Lin Jing not only secretly suspected that Gu Ziyan was biased, but also gradually became dissatisfied with his current situation.His cultivation base is not low, but apart from the title of chief disciple, he has no other position in Cangming Sect.So when Xuan Huai promised him a series of benefits, he was moved.

What Xuan Huai wanted him to do was to tamper with Gu Ziyan's sword, and he would just report a letter when the time came.Leaving aside the easy work of reporting the letter, Lin Jing usually served Gu Ziyan's side, and it was not difficult to touch his sword.Since these two conditions can be exchanged for generous rewards, Lin Jing, who was already hated, naturally agreed.

After all kinds of things, Li Zhao hardly dared to recall the situation in that barren valley.

If he hadn't held back that breath at that time and didn't conflict with Lin Jing, would Gu Ziyan not have died?This thought appeared in Li Zhao's mind countless times, so much so that later on he was almost paranoid to believe that Gu Ziyan's death was inseparable from himself.

This is a kind of obsession, which cannot be torn apart by others.

That's why Li Zhao lost his usual calm when he knew that Xing Chi was lying to others and insisted on blocking the reborn Gu Ziyan from the Cang Ming Sect.At that time, when he faced Xing Chi, he was almost furious.If Xing Chi hadn't accompanied him through life and death in the ancient domain, if it was any other person, maybe he wouldn't even have the chance to be imprisoned in the Blood Prison River.

Speaking of which, what kind of feelings does he have for Gu Ziyan?

Perhaps Li Zhao himself could not explain clearly.

A teacher for a day, a teacher for life, he remembered Gu Ziyan's gentleness for a long time. When a sudden death took him away completely, everything turned into a pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.Once a person disappears into this world, every trace left by him is precious.

He cared about Gu Ziyan a lot, but he didn't have too many extravagant hopes, as long as...everything is safe within his reach, that's enough.

What Li Zhao misses is only the tenderness, the tenderness that was lost and returned again.

"Master, how long are you going to stay this time?" Li Zhao retracted his wandering thoughts, slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Gu Ziyan thought for a while, and finally looked at Li Zhao's eyes and finally softened his heart: "Until your completion of the tribulation period... But it has been agreed in advance, you are not allowed to deliberately suppress your spiritual power so that it will not soar!"

"Well, I won't." Li Zhao nodded.

The dangerous and willful right to deliberately suppress spiritual power so as not to ascend, belongs to another person only.

Li Zhao didn't feel unhappy at all, he just felt a little lost - anyway, if Gu Ziyan felt happy, he, as an apprentice, of course felt the same way.

It took Li Zhao 20 years from crossing the catastrophe to ascending.

These 20 years, plus the ten years in the Cangming Sect, plus the seven years in the Taihua Xianzong.

A total of 37 years, accounting for nearly one-fifth of Li Zhao's entire life.

He has no regrets, because he has waited every time.
