12 years ago--

In a remote town in Mortal Realm, the young Zhan Nanzhou was dressed in a patched coarse sackcloth, his face was dusty, and his original appearance could hardly be seen.

Both his parents fell ill and passed away when he was young, and he grew up eating a lot of food. Thanks to the support from everyone in the neighborhood, he has been able to grow up to this day.Only because of long-term malnutrition, he is much thinner than his peers.

I don’t know why there are very few people on the street today, and the shops are also deserted, and most of them are closed.Zhan Nanzhou is so unclear, he is too young, even if these shops are looking for someone to work, they will not find him, so he can only ask those shops for some leftovers every day.When luck is good, there will be one or two bowls left over. When luck is bad, there will be only some cold soup to drink, but that is better than nothing.

Just when Zhan Nanzhou was at a loss, Aunt Wang, who lives next door to his house, hurried past and was surprised when she saw him, but she quickly understood: "Xiaozhou, the town has not been very peaceful these two days. , Several people have disappeared. You... why don't you come to Aunt Wang's house first? You'll stay at home for the past few days, it's best not to come out."

"Thank you, Aunt Wang." Zhan Nanzhou pursed his lips and thanked him quickly.

Aunt Wang sighed: "You're welcome, hey, you're also a poor one."

They watched this child grow up, and they would always call him when they cooked more meals at home on weekdays.Many people in their town have also been helped by Zhan Nanzhou's parents, and now it is appropriate to help them take care of their children.

"Aunt Wang, what happened to the disappearance you mentioned earlier?" Zhan Nanzhou followed behind Aunt Wang, raising his face and asking.

This year's harvest is good, and every household has a bit of food in stock. If they stay at home like this, they can last for a while.But he was young and had no way to earn food. If he stayed at home obediently, he might starve to death.As for the two children in Aunt Wang's family, they didn't live a very lenient life. It was okay to take Zhan Nanzhou in once in a while.

Letting Zhan Nanzhou stay at Aunt Wang's house to eat and drink all the time, he himself felt very sorry.But if no one took him in, he would be unwilling to starve to death like this.

If only he could grow up faster.

"I don't know about it. The first one to disappear was a hunter in the town. He went to the mountain at the west end of the town in the morning and didn't come back for two whole days. Later, he went to two people looking for him, but he didn't come back either. So everyone is saying that there are monsters that eat people on that mountain." Aunt Wang said it seriously, she was actually hearing it, but she also knew the Orion, and it was true that she hadn't seen it for two or three days.

This kind of thing, I would rather believe it than believe it. They have people in their families, and they don't want to lose their lives in vain.

The incident broke out two nights later, Zhan Nanzhou was lying on the thin wooden bed at home tossing and turning, unable to sleep no matter what, and was about to get down to drink water when he heard a loud noise outside.

Zhan Nanzhou quietly walked to the window and looked out cautiously. In the darkness, he saw only a huge figure falling on the street, but because it was too dark, he couldn't see what it was at all.

The sound of heavy breathing came, as if it was ringing in his ears, Zhan Nanzhou leaned against the door panel and held his breath, not daring to breathe out.

"boom--"

"Ah—the monster—"

The loud sound of houses being destroyed and collapsed, accompanied by screams of extreme horror, broke the silence of the entire town.However, no one dared to step out of the house at this time. They hid at home shivering, praying that the monster would leave by itself.

In Zhan Nanzhou's heart, heaven and man were at war, and the scream just now seemed to be Aunt Wang...

"Who, who will open the door for me, help, help..."

Zhan Nanzhou, who couldn't bear it anymore, opened the door tremblingly and rushed out, letting Aunt Wang and her two children in, but when he raised his head, he stopped breathing.The monster was extremely ugly, with disgusting sarcoma all over its body, and a pair of yellow eyes shimmering in the night looked over faintly.

Zhan Nanzhou swallowed, and quickly closed the door.Although he knew in his heart that this door couldn't stop the monster at all, but doing so seemed to give him a psychological comfort, so he couldn't help but feel lucky.

The monster's voice was very close to the door, and Zhan Nanzhou and Aunt Wang's family huddled in the corner of the room, almost desperate.

At this time, no matter how many times Zhan Nanzhou thinks about it in the future, his memory is still fresh.The cyan light was extraordinarily dazzling at night, and it suddenly crossed the night sky, cutting the monster that was about to break through the door into two pieces.

Standing against the wind, Tang Yixuan holds a blue long sword in his hand, and wears a water-blue robe with cloud patterns fluttering in the wind. In the eyes of the town residents who came out to check, it is the descending of a fairy.

At that time, Zhan Nanzhou's mind fell on that person, captured by his expression.

"Immortal, it's an immortal!"

"Thank you fairy!"

"..."

The townspeople knelt down and kowtowed, thanking him constantly for his saving grace.

"I just noticed that the evil spirit passed by here, and I am not the fairy you are talking about. Besides, it is my job to subjugate demons and eliminate demons. You don't need to thank you." Tang Yixuan smiled and waved his sleeves, and everyone was helped by a gust of wind uncontrollably rise.

Zhan Nanzhou was also one of these people. Feeling the breeze lifting his body, he couldn't help yearning for such a magical power.

He raised his eyes and met Tang Yixuan's gaze.

Tang Yixuan smiled at him: "Little guy, you did a good job. It's very brave to come out and open the door under such circumstances."

At that time, Zhan Nanzhou had only one thought in his mind, the fairy's smile was so pretty.

In just an instant, Zhan Nanzhou had a decision in his heart. He took two steps forward and said in a trembling voice, "Excuse me, can you accept me as an apprentice?"

"Huh?" At that time, Tang Yixuan seemed quite surprised, but he had a pressing matter in mind, so he couldn't take this child to the sect.

The Cangshan Sword Sect is not so easy-going. Although this son is kind-hearted, he still needs to pass certain tests.Tang Yixuan did some calculations and found that they did have the fate of master and apprentice, but it was so indifferent that it almost didn't exist.

Zhan Nanzhou nervously waited for his answer, and Tang Yixuan smiled at him: "I have important matters to attend to, so it's not convenient to take you with me. If you really want to be a teacher, you can go to the Cangshan Sword Sect."

If this child is really destined to be with him, he will meet again in the future.
