You are such a master

In a blink of an eye, five years have passed.

The snow on Xuanshuang Peak is still the same, but the short branches of the silver-clothed trees are taller than the children of those days.

The young man in the azure blue robe was already tall. After opening his eyebrows and eyes, besides the delicacy of his childhood, he also had handsome edges and corners.The watery aura lingering around his body gave him a layer of delicate temperament, and his whole person looked as gentle as jade.

This is Gu Ran who has just reached the weak crown.In five years, in addition to breaking through to the Golden Core stage, his cultivation base has further consolidated to the Golden Core stage.Living up to the name of the proud son of heaven, Gu Ran's cultivation speed is already comparable to that of Xuanlan back then.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp—" A small and exquisite ice bird flapped its wings and flew towards Gu Ran vigorously.Gu Ran reached out to catch the little ice bird, and skillfully got a storage ring from its claw.

"It's your turn to deliver the ingredients again today. Where did Xiaobai go?" Gu Ran gently rubbed the top of the little ice bird's head with his fingertips, speaking in a gentle voice.

"Chirp Chirp." Little Ice Bird's expression was a little blank. It didn't know where its boss had gone, and it would only complete the delivery task requested by the boss.

Looking at the appearance of the little ice bird, Gu Ran was a little funny. As time went by, Xiaobai's courage became more and more courageous, and sometimes he flew back after playing endlessly.Of course, none of the things it asked to do were done, but the executors became some of its younger brothers.

"Go back, be careful when flying, don't hit the tree trunk." Gu Ran let go of his hand and let the little ice bird fly back by itself.

"Chirp Chirp." The little ice bird pecked Gu Ran's palm twice, and flew away happily with its wings fluttering.

After the little ice bird left, Gu Ran sacrificed his natal spirit sword. Since his golden elixir was successful, the natal spirit sword warmed in his dantian was also successfully forged under the thunder calamity.

The appearance of Gu Ran's natal spirit sword can't be seen to be very delicate, but the two words "Yunshuang" on the sword body are vigorous and powerful, and every stroke has penetrated into the sword energy.

These two words were naturally written by Xuan Lan.It is covered with a thin book of frost, which can be regarded as reflecting its name.

The flying speed of the golden core stage monk's sword is more than ten times that of the foundation stage. After a while, Gu Ran landed firmly on the mansion.

Gu Ran was a little surprised that Master Xuanlan changed into a crimson dress today, against which his frosty and snowy face was exceptionally handsome, as if he had walked out of a painting, with a bit of disapproval. Clear temperament.

This is not the first time Shizun wears crimson clothes. Sometimes at night, Shizun is seen playing chess alone in a crimson robe.

"The disciple has met the master." Gu Ran put away his natal spirit sword, and saluted respectfully to the person in front of him.

"Well, today is the day for you and the weak crown. Go change your clothes and go to Xuanjian Peak as a teacher." Xuanlan's voice was the same as always.

It's just that Gu Ran didn't quite understand the meaning of his words. Is it Xuan Jianfeng who changed clothes?What does the days of reaching the weak crown have to do with going to Xuanjian Peak?

"It's a big day for my disciples to reach the weak crown." Xuan Lan stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked back at him, the frost and snow in his eyes gradually melted when he said these words.

Gu Ran's heart warmed up, and the weak crown, 16 years old is considered the weak crown here, if there is a man in a rich family who reaches the age of 16, they will all celebrate it.

I thought today was just cooking a bowl of longevity noodles for myself... It seems that there are more things to look forward to.

Gu Ran frowned, and went back to his room to change his clothes.The clothes in the room seemed to be prepared by my master, and the color was also bright red, and the embroidery on them was extraordinarily delicate.

"Yunran..." Gu Ran read out his Dao name softly, then changed the robe and put it on.The size of the robe fits well, the texture is very comfortable, and the material should be extraordinary.

"Let's go." Seeing that he came out after changing his clothes, Xuanlan sacrificed his natal spirit sword.

"Yes." Seeing this, Gu Ran also sacrificed his natal spirit sword, intending to fly over with his master.

Seeing Gu Ran's movements, Xuanlan couldn't help being slightly dazed, yes, the child who needed to fly with Yujian before could now come and go freely with Yujian.

Two sword shadows flew forward from Xuanshuang Peak to Xuanjian Peak, one behind the other.

Yunxu had already asked his eldest disciple Li Lang to prepare for Xuanlan's crowning ceremony, but Yunxu still felt a little complicated in his heart when he wanted to tell the public about the precious bump that had been tightly covered before.

After the crowning ceremony, Gu Ran's talent and strength were naturally exposed, and he was not afraid of anything, but it was a pity that he couldn't speak out during the three factions' competition to scare the old immortals of the other two factions to death.

With a bit of regret, Yunxu looked at the two figures who were getting closer to Xuanjian Peak in the midair with some melancholy.

"Master, please let me go, there is still something to be arranged here." Li Lang's voice sounded from behind Yun Xu, and the drive in it was self-evident.

"..." Yunxu took a deep breath, and moved a seat for his outstanding first disciple.After all—it’s better to let others do things that you don’t want to take care of. It’s better to watch more and talk less.Yun Xu is very conscious of being lazy.

This celebration is the second sect-style celebration recently, apart from Chu Shaoqing, the younger disciple of the second elder's sect half a year ago.And because of seniority, Li Lang consciously put out the best ones for the little uncle to support.

Only favored direct disciples have this honor, even if you have the status of direct disciple, it may not be possible for the master to crown you personally.

The disciples who came to Xuanjian Peak were bustling, gathering in small groups to discuss today's protagonist.

"It seems to be the uncle of the Yunzi generation..."

"No way, the Yunzi generation is of the same generation as the head of the sect, and the master uncle of the Yunzi generation has just reached the weak crown?"

"Ah, so which senior brother would it be?"

"I don't know, I heard that he is still a genius who is rare in a thousand years, and his cultivation has reached the golden core stage."

"..."

Gu Yi walked beside the group of people and closed his mouth tightly, he was afraid that if he couldn't control it, he would open his mouth and smile wider and wider.As one of the few people who knew the identity of the junior uncle, the more he heard others envy Gu Ran, the more proud he felt.

This is his own young master, and now he has become so outstanding.Gu Yi felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.

"I didn't expect five years to pass so quickly. I still remember that when I first met Young Master Yun, he didn't have Gu Yigao." Xiao He touched his head and said with some emotion.

His words were naturally heard by Gu Yi who was walking next to him, "Actually, the height of my junior uncle is not much different from mine." It's not up to me to decide whether I'm tall or not, of course, Gu Yi doesn't care I don't mind being shorter than Gu Ran or anything.

"Well, when the time comes, you must remember the etiquette when you meet the little uncle, and don't be so casual as in private." Walking on the other side of Xiao He, Xiao Rang, with a slightly sickly pale face, told him that his illness has mostly healed now. , but the root cause of the disease has not been completely removed, and it still needs time to warm up.

But in the past few years of knowing Gu Ran, Xiao Rang gradually felt the hope of recovery. He really wanted to get rid of the disease in his body, and then he would soar into the sky like a Kunpeng with wings spread.

"What brother said is true." Xiao He obediently nodded his head in agreement.Affected by him, Gu Yi would sometimes subconsciously follow Xiao Rang's arrangements. His personality has always been simple, and he would accept suggestions that he thought were right.

Apart from Gu Yi and the others, Chu Shaoqing is the one who knows the identity of today's protagonist.

Fate is really a very delicate thing, at least in Chu Shaoqing's opinion, this is the fourth time he has seen his nominal Uncle Yunran.

The first time was when the Xuanjianzong was selecting disciples, the second time was at the Xuanjianzong Introductory Ceremony, the third time was when Yunran established the foundation, and as for the fourth time...

Chu Shaoqing looked at the figure of the boy above the crowd, and there was no sound in his throat for a moment.The young man who worshiped under the Xuanjian sect with him in the past has grown to the point where he looks up to.

Not reconciled?The gap between them is no longer a matter of reconciliation, Chu Shaoqing took a deep breath, and suppressed the inexplicable feelings in his heart.

Today is the ceremony of that person's coronation. He is extremely talented and has a halo all over his body.

Looking at the orderly crowd in the audience, Gu Ran felt a little nervous. Such a scene reminded him of the introductory ceremony a few years ago.At that time, the people on the stage were the same few heads and elders, and the person who came quietly but shocked the audience was his own master.

It's just that at this time, my master is always by my side.This is a very subtle feeling, a sense of dependence that Gu Ran himself has not noticed.

"Today is the crowning ceremony for Junior Brother Yunran, the only direct disciple of Master Xuanlan's sect. According to the etiquette, I... my Master Xuanlan will crown Junior Brother Yunran."

Yun Xuzi wanted to crown his junior by himself, but after thinking about the consequences of doing so, he chose to change his mind at a critical moment.

There was silence in the audience, and even many people's hearts were stirred up.The only Yunzi generation under Xuanlan's sect, a 16-year-old Jindan middle-stage cultivator who is gifted with water spirit roots and a natural sword body.

The so-called ceremony of reaching the crown is traditionally done by the elders, while in the cultivation world, it is more respected that the elders pass on the skills to the younger generations, so as to enhance the younger generation's cultivation base, and at the same time play a role of encouragement.

Xuan Lan got a wooden comb from the jade plate brought up by the boy.This is a traditional hair-tying etiquette, but Gu Ran only felt that the air around him was about to freeze, and the cool and noble master was combing his hair... The movement of the wooden comb was very light, but it also made Gu Ran feel more clearly .

It seems that a hundred years old, handsome and soft-eyed young man quietly let the people behind him tie his hair and crown him.The two were dressed in red, and as they moved, the bright colors seemed to blend together.

Gu Ran lowered his eyes, looking at the crimson clothes, wondering what he was thinking.

"Okay." Xuan Lan's voice was cold, but it fell into everyone's ears clearly.Together with Gu Ran, it was like waking up from a dream.

"Congratulations to Uncle Yunran (brother) and Guan!" Everyone congratulated in unison, and looked up at the young man on the stage again, with more or less envy and congratulations in their eyes.

The next step is to pass on the skills. There is no doubt about Xuan Lan's cultivation base. It is hard for people to imagine what kind of frightening benefits it is to be able to get the skills taught by Mahayana monks.

Sitting upright on the futon, even though the person opposite was his master, when the spiritual power in his body began to surge, Gu Ran's mood gradually calmed down along with it, and he entered the state of cultivation.

Xuanlan's cultivation base is like a majestic source of spiritual power, and to Gu Ran, it is a boundless sea of ​​spiritual power, and strands of cold air began to gather along Xuanlan's palm into Gu Ran's meridians.

Unlike the cold air in the cold water spirit pool, the master's spiritual power is more pure than that in the spirit pool, and the temperature is also colder... A faint layer of frost quietly formed on Gu Ran's eyebrows and eyelashes.

To transform these cultivation bases into his own... Gu Ran only felt that the radiant golden core in his dantian was desperately absorbing the spiritual power from Xuanlan, as if he didn't know how hungry or full he was.

The spiritual power fluctuations around Gu Ran suddenly changed, and it was abruptly promoted from the middle stage of the Golden Core to the late stage of the Golden Core, but this is not the end, Gu Ran's breath is still growing crazily at a discernible speed.

Talented sword body rarely encounters barriers in cultivation—if it is just such a step to conceive a baby, it may not necessarily step into the ranks of Nascent Soul monks.

All the people present were breathing weakly and almost stopped. They seemed to be witnessing the birth of a 16-year-old Nascent Soul cultivator. At such an exciting moment, the first 16-year-old Nascent Soul cultivator in Lingchuan Realm.

Above the sky, large expanses of thunderclouds have already begun to emerge, gradually converging in this direction.As long as he successfully survived the thunder disaster, Xuanjianzong would have another Nascent Soul cultivator.

Then there are infinite opportunities to develop into the next real Xuanlan, and the pillars of their Xuanjianzong can be said to have successors!

When Yunxu was infinitely expanding Gu Ran's potential stock in his heart, the expression on his face became excited along with the thunderclouds in the sky.

But at this moment—the vision mutated!

The thunderclouds in the sky suddenly stopped still abruptly, and the thunder calamity that was about to fall in a mighty manner, but at that moment, it slowly dissipated—it even disappeared! ! !

There was no cloud in the sky, as if the thunderstorm fluctuation just now was just an illusion!

Yun Xuzi was in a bad mood, and his mentality almost collapsed due to his shattered ideals. He quickly turned his attention to the pair of master and apprentice who were still teaching the exercises. The two still maintained a quiet state of teaching exercises, but originally Gu Ran's rioting spiritual power returned to calm.

How is this going?

Everyone is puzzled, only the two who are still teaching the exercises know it well.

——At the critical moment of Gu Ran's advancement, Xuan Lan forcibly sealed most of the spiritual power he had inputted in the past.

"If you succeed in conceiving an infant now, your realm will be unstable in the future due to advancing too fast, and the quality of the Nascent Soul produced will not be good. Instead of doing this, you might as well rely on your own strength to comprehend that layer of barrier."

Xuanlan's words were transmitted directly along their interconnected spiritual senses, making Gu Ran's previous doubts disappear immediately, and at the same time, he accepted the teachings of his master more calmly.

When he formed the alchemy, the time was too fast. Although it seems that one step of forming a baby can add some brilliance to his outstanding talent, if it leads to instability in the future, it is really not worth the loss.

Master's approach like this is undoubtedly more beneficial to him.

With the same spiritual sense, Xuan Lan can clearly feel the trust of her little apprentice in herself, and this kind of trust makes Xuan Lan feel very comfortable.

The spiritual power revolved around the two of them again for a week, and the transmission of skills gradually came to an end.

Holding their breath, the two of them withdrew their spiritual power, as if the originally rough sea had calmed down and remained calm.

Yun Xuzi was the first to recover from the stupefaction of passing on the skills, and he was the first to congratulate Gu Ran. "Congratulations, little brother, for advancing to the late Jindan stage."

It was his sound that awakened the consciousness of everyone in the audience.

"Congratulations to my junior brother (junior uncle) for advancing to the late stage of Jindan." It's a pity that I was able to conceive a baby in one step.Everyone's expressions seemed to be full of unfinished business.

The following matters are similar to those in the mundane world, there should be banquets that should be given, and gifts that should be given should also be given.

Since Gu Ran started his career, this is the second time he received a gift and received soft hands.Xuanjianzong is rich and powerful, so the disciples inside are naturally not bad. Even if they are not rich, the gifts can be ingenious.

How can you neglect the gift of the Mahayana monks in the future?

Xuan Lan always likes to be quiet, he stayed at the lively banquet for a full quarter of an hour, and left alone after Gu Ran finished his toast.

If it was before, there would definitely not be Master Xuanlan in such a scene.Yun Xuzi squinted his eyes while holding the wine glass.One is to feel how much his junior brother is valued, and the other is to relax his mind and make future plans for Xuan Jianzong.

If one day Master Xuanlan intends to ascend to the Immortal Realm, there will also be a junior brother who will grow up to be a pillar and can continue to protect Xuanjianzong.

Yun Xuzi jingled his little abacus in his heart, but he didn't know that in the future, when Master Xuanlan ascended to the ascension, his frighteningly talented junior brother would also become a reliable pillar of strength—it was only the ascension of Master Xuanlan. Time also took the pillars away.

***

This is the first time that Gu Ran has drunk so much alcohol. It cannot be said that he is too poor or very good at drinking.

There is water in the wine, and alcohol in the water. He is cultivating the water spirit root, so he doesn't dislike wine, but the feeling of being dizzy when the alcohol diffuses into his body is still a little strange.

Flying like this, Yujian might fall from the natal spirit sword in the middle of the flight because of an unstable center of gravity.

Under Yun Xuzi's worried eyes, Li Lang, the first senior senior brother, was ordered to send his junior senior uncle back to Xuanshuang Peak as a matter of course.

The speed of the white-feathered crane is not as fast as Yujian's flying, but the victory is sure.

Fortunately, little uncle Gu Ran was quiet and well-behaved when he was drunk, without the aftereffects of drunken madness and nonsense.Li Lang still breathed a sigh of relief.

Xuanshuang Peak has been like a day for thousands of years, cold, separated, and powerful.

This is Li Lang's permanent impression of it.

It's just that when he handed over the drunk little uncle to the cold master Xuanlan, inexplicably, he felt the subtlety of the cold frost and snow being melted by the warm water.

Like the inadvertent frost and snow melting slightly, mixed with a bit of warmth.

"Disciple, leave." Li Lang bowed his head in salute, and after receiving Xuanlan's response, he returned the same way with the white-feathered crane.

The drunk Gu Ran opened his eyes in a daze, as if he was trying to figure out who the person in front of him was, he tried his best to take a few glances before he came to his senses, and obediently called out, "Master..."

Xuan Lan lowered her eyes, her expression couldn't tell whether it was anger or joy, it was a kind of complexity between the two.

Thousands of words have never been said, but in the end there is only one sigh, "Next time remember not to drink too much."

"I know I'm wrong..." Gu Ran nodded obediently, and he didn't know if he had maintained his sanity, but after tilting his head and looking at Xuanlan for a while, he couldn't help but feel dizzy. Xuan Lan rubbed against her body.

If Gu Ran was given a moment of clarity at this time, he would be so frightened by his subconscious acting like a baby that his body would stiffen.

But now Gu Ran is dizzy.The stiff body is naturally not him.Xuan Lan supported Gu Ran's limp body from being drunk, and remained silent. After a while, he stroked Gu Ran's bangs that covered his brows and eyes.

Under the fingertips, there is a peaceful sleeping face.

"Little drunk." There was a joking voice in the air, with a taste of unconscious doting.

Xuan Lan raised his hand and picked up the sleeping little apprentice by the waist.They walked into Gu Ran's room together.The road is neither long nor short, so naturally you need to let go when you arrive at the location.

It's just - the little drunk grabbed half of Xuan Lan's sleeve.

"If you delay tomorrow's training, he will definitely punish you." Xuan Lan's voice was slightly smiling, which was rarely seen in Gu Ran's memory.It's a pity that he is completely unconscious now.

Xuanlan was still talking to himself, "But I'm afraid he won't be able to urge you to practice tomorrow, this shell can't accommodate a split spirit, hey, little apprentice, you said we came from the same soul, why can't you What about reintegrating back?"

"I've told you so much, but you don't know who I am. Xuanlan is his dao name. My name is Ji Lan. Of course, this is also his name. Do you remember? Huh?"

The last sound dissipated in the air, and Xuan Lan's figure gradually disappeared in Gu Ran's room.

The room was safe, and Gu Ran fell asleep peacefully, unconscious.
