The fresh fragrance that gradually rippled between his lips left him with an endless aftertaste.
Wang Lu gently touched his lips and subconsciously smiled.
Almost the same lines, the same touch, made the memory of the two lives intertwined at this moment. And the figure of the beauty in front of him became blurred.
In a trance, he seemed to see the Junior Sister who was crying in his arms and full of fear for the future. His heart surged with an endless desire to protect her, wanting to protect her safety at all costs.
However, when he came back to his senses, the woman in white was already standing on the top of a hill with a newly plucked bamboo branch on her waist. Facing the setting sun, she stretched her infinitely beautiful body.
The setting sun pulled out a long shadow, which was long and narrow. Even the shadow of the mountain under her feet extended all the way to him. Looking up, Wang Wu seemed to be high in the clouds, in the fiery sunset glow.
After more than one hundred years, the delicate and timid Junior Sister had grown into the Fifth Elder of the Lingjian School, the number one King Pill in Nine Regions. Even his cultivation in this life had started because of her.
Things remain the same, but people have changed.
"As for me, I am no longer the same person as before."
On the top of the hill, the voice of Wang Wu clearly passed into his ears.
"I still remember that time, in the Savage Land, you wanted me to live happily no matter what, one hundred years, two hundred years … Then you promised that I would come back. Later on, you really did it, but nearly one hundred and fifty years have passed. How many one hundred and fifty years can a person have in his life? Of course, I don't blame you for coming too late. I just want to say that everything is different. "
Of course, Wang Lu knew that everything was different, but he also knew that what Wang Wu wanted to say was not what she meant.
"At that time, I once asked you why you chose me. You said a lot, but I won't say those nice things. However, I remember very clearly that you once said that my biggest problem was that I lacked a sense of responsibility, because I wasn't interested in anything around me, and I didn't care about anything. But at that time, with my mixed spirit root, I had to do my best to keep up with the progress of my Senior Brothers and Sisters, so how could I have time to think about other things? Later on, you gave me your inheritance, which made me enlightened, greatly improved my perception, and also improved my spirit root. Only then could I really open my eyes, just like now. "
With that, Wang Wu pointed her foot and her figure soared into the sky like an arrow, leaving the mountains behind her. After an unknown period of time, Wang Lu could no longer see her with the vision of Daoist Master King Pill.
In Nine Regions, there was a strong wind in the sky. The higher one went, the stronger the wind, like an indestructible barrier. It was said that even True Immortals could not resist the fierceness of the wind at the highest place. Of course, Wang Wu was far less than a True Immortal, but the scenery that she could appreciate must be far better than most people.
"Senior Brother, guess what I'm looking at right now?"
Wang Lu was silent for a while and did not answer.
Of course, his vision at this time was not as good as that of the number one King Pill in Nine Regions. However, he was the biggest witness of the crisis that nearly destroyed the Lingjian School one hundred and fifty years ago. No one knew the crisis of the Fallen Immortal better than him. However, the more he knew it, the heavier it was.
"One hundred and fifty years ago, it was you, Senior Brother, who supported the situation. Although you were just a small Daoist Master King Pill at that time, you led the situation with your own strength and temporarily resolved a big crisis that might spread to the whole Nine Regions. In the past one hundred and fifty years, I have seen all the heroes in Nine Regions, but no one can compare to you. I have taken over your legacy, inherited your inheritance, and also have your responsibility. I don't know how far I can go in the big wave in the future with my ability, but Senior Brother, please believe me, in the past one hundred and fifty years, Junior Sister really didn't slack off … "
Wang Lu thought about her daily scenes on Non-Phase Peak and felt that it was really difficult to accept the conclusion that she had never slacked off. However, considering that she was, after all, a woman, if he just turned a blind eye … then let it be for the time being.
Moreover, from another point of view, she had really done an excellent job. Among the several Elders of Heavenly Sword Hall, although her stage was the lowest, her actual combat ability was firmly in the forefront. In the whole Nine Regions, she could be said to be one of the few experts. What was the concept of this? Those at the same level as her were at least Peak Deity Stage or even Supreme of Unity Stage. Those who could reach Deity Stage or even Unity Stage were basically the geniuses of the present age with excellent perception and aptitude. And almost all of those guys had been cultivating for less than five hundred years.
How long had Wang Wu been cultivating for? Not even half of them!
Of course, Feng Yin and the others were not simple either. At the beginning, they each inherited the legacy of the golden generation. In less than two hundred years of cultivation, they became the top experts in Nine Regions, which could be called as a world-shaking achievement. At the beginning, the reason why Lingjian School was able to maintain its reputation as one of the Five Uniques in times of crisis was that it relied on the peerless method of suppressing the Fallen Immortals in the Savage Land. But now, the Lingjian School had a very high prestige solely by virtue of the Heavenly Sword Hall brand.
Everyone didn't waste time. Thinking about it, Wang Lu could only smile bitterly when he looked at himself, who had just touched the peak of the King Pill and whose foundation was unstable.
"More than one hundred years is indeed a long time."
"So, Senior Brother, what are you going to do?" With that, Wang Wu's figure flashed and returned to Wang Lu's side. She looked at him curiously, looking forward to his answer.
Wang Lu was silent for a while and then sighed, "From now on, don't call me Senior Brother. Being your Senior Brother ended one hundred and fifty years ago. And more than twenty years ago, I did the ceremony of acknowledging you as my Master. "
"Mm." Wang Wu was not surprised by this answer.
In her impression, although her Big Brother's mouth was a bit vicious and his character was occasionally jumpy … After experiencing a reincarnation, he had changed quite a bit from the past. However, one thing had never changed: he knew when to advance and when to retreat.
Of course, it was a bit hard to describe him as knowing when to advance and when to retreat. However, her Big Brother was indeed very proper when it came to treating his own people.
Yes, he was the Big Brother of the golden generation, the savior of all the survivors, and the person who made the greatest contribution in that peerless meritorious service. However, more than one hundred years had passed.
If the identity of the reincarnation of the Big Brother was revealed, what would Feng Yin and the others do? At that time, it would simply be an unsolvable problem!
Hand over the position of the Sect Master?
Not to mention the fact that the Lingjian School had been built from the dying day to today, it contained a lot of effort from the ten people of Heavenly Sword Hall. Not to mention the Sect Master of one of the Five Uniques of the Wanxian League, giving it to a cultivator with the King Pill would cause a huge sensation and put a lot of pressure on the sect. From Wang Lu's own point of view, he did not think that taking over the position of Sect Master was a good thing. He was still in the period where his cultivation was rising the fastest. It was best for him to focus on cultivation and experience without any distractions.
Then, what if he did not mention the position of Sect Master and only promoted Wang Lu to an Elder of Heavenly Sword Hall and enjoyed a high status? That was still not feasible. At that time, when the Heavenly Sword Hall meeting was held, with just one word from Wang Lu, who would dare to openly oppose him? That power would not be inferior to that of the Sect Master.
And if they turned a blind eye to Wang Lu and still let him be their lead disciple … when they met in the sect, Wang Lu would greet them as a disciple. Except for Wang Wu, whose worldview was different from ordinary people, who would dare to accept it? Who would really dare to see him as a disciple?
In his previous life, the prestige of the Eldest Senior Brother was actually an extremely cumbersome thing. It was better not to have it, so Wang Lu did not intend to expose it.
Wang Wu said, "But, in fact, I can't hide it for long. Everyone will find out sooner or later. After coming back from the Demon Realm this time, your temperament ….. is becoming more and more similar to the past. "
"It doesn't matter. As long as I don't say it, they won't be able to confirm it, and they won't take the initiative to confirm it. And ….. the root of the problem is that my strength and prestige are not enough, and I am not worthy of the title of Eldest Senior Brother. But the gap between me and you is actually only a hundred years. With my accumulation in this life, once I explode with Qi, catching up to you is just a matter of minutes. "
As soon as Wang Lu finished speaking, he unconsciously shrugged. Because if this kind of words were heard by Wang Wu, she would almost certainly retort: How could a cultivator with Void Spirit Root who has cultivated for more than twenty years to reach the King Pill Stage have the face to explode with Qi? In the past few years, she had quarreled with similar topics on the Non-Phase Peak countless times.
But this time, Wang Wu gently nodded her head. "Yes, I look forward to it."
Wang Wu's back was facing him, so that people could not see her face. However, Wang Lu always felt that her so-called expectation seemed to not only refer to his rapid advancement in cultivation base, but also that he could become the omnipotent Eldest Senior Brother again. And then … thinking of that, Wang Lu could not help but feel confused.
After that, there was no word for a long time.
Both of them had too many problems to think about. For example, for Wang Lu, he faintly felt that when Ouyang Shang traveled through the endless void twice, it was not just for survival. At least after the second time traveling and returning to Nine Regions, the qualification of Void Spirit Root was not a coincidence. Unfortunately, the memory belonging to Ouyang Shang was not completely inherited — it seemed that it was an inevitable loss in the process of traveling — so many things could only be guessed. At present, according to Wang Lu's view, it was likely to be related to the providence.
He still remembered that Mr. Feng Yue seemed to have said that the providence of Nine Regions was a joke to him. At that time, the golden generation obviously had deep providence, and it was reasonable to say that each of them was an expert who jumped off the cliff to pick up the secret books. However, in that crisis, they were almost killed and injured. On the contrary, people like Wang Wu, who had bad providence, survived until the end.
The reason for this was obviously not simple. Unfortunately, it was still not clear. But it didn't matter. With his King Pill Stage cultivation base, it was useless to figure it out. If he really wanted to be the opponent of the Fallen Immortal, according to the current Immortal Cultivation Route, he would not be able to reach Deity Stage.
After no one knew how long, Wang Lu broke the silence.
"We have already sighed with emotion. Next, let's break through this immortal dream land."
