"Nonsense. Even if I did, my niece is the only daughter of our sect apart from me. Pei Zi Yun has to teach her a lesson. If not, how would he know how to cherish her?"
"Yes, yes, Senior Sister. I'll let you do all the good things, but leave all the bad things to me. Before this, when you took Ye Su 'er away, you gave me a three year promise. I'm afraid that Pei Zi Yun hates me, and thinks that I was the one who kidnapped and sold Ye Su' er." The Monastery Leader said.
"When I found her, I was very excited. I didn't want her to be entangled with mortals. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he had already reached the ninth level of cultivation, and was nearing the threshold of the gates of heaven." The Sect Leader sighed. She had missed out on a genius, and should have investigated him more thoroughly.
"Senior Sister, you mean to say that we should teach him a lesson? It's just that deep feelings are hard to come by. Su 'er was living here with me, and I can still remember how much she missed me. If we teach her a lesson, she might change her mind. "The Monastery Leader sighed as she spoke.
"This little girl dares to do that." The Sect Leader said coldly. She then thought of something and sighed, "This little girl doesn't know that deep feelings don't last forever. She gave her heart away just like that. Besides, Pei Zi Yun was hiding his intelligence, and didn't reveal it. He was just a mortal, how could I allow him to do that?"
"Of course it's different now. We can be together forever, and be together forever." The Sect Leader seemed to have thought of something, "Maybe this young girl thinks that I'm snobbish, but I love her dearly."
"Your heart has softened." The head of the Peach Blossom Origins Monastery looked at her senior sister and sighed.
"Hm, do you think I'll agree to it so easily? How can it be so simple? Even a mother-in-law in the mortal world would find it difficult to teach him a lesson, much less someone from a sect like us. "
"Senior Sister, what do you think of people from a sect like us?" The Monastery Leader asked with a smile.
"I've long heard that he has a literary reputation. When he was in the capital city, he even went to the Princess to recite poems. How despicable. For Su 'er's sake, I have to make things difficult for him. If not, he will use his talents to flirt with other women. Wouldn't that hurt Su' er's feelings?" The Monastery Leader said angrily.
"Pei Zi Yun, it's your fault for reciting poems and flirting with women. You've offended my Senior Sister. You're going to have a good life ahead of you." The Monastery Leader said, expressing his sympathy for Pei Zi Yun.
As the two of them spoke, the flute came to an end. The melody lingered on, unwilling to part. As soon as the music stopped, the noisy peach forest suddenly became cold and cheerless.
Although the two of them had not met, the unfamiliarity of not having seen each other for two years seemed to disappear in the flute.
Pei Zi Yun hung the flute on the back of the horse and leapt off. He walked towards the peach forest and turned a corner before he pushed aside a branch. He raised his head and saw a young girl opposite him pushing aside a branch as well.
The two of them looked at each other. She was a little different from what they remembered. The girl in front of them was no longer as thin and weak as she was in the past. Her purple silk was tied around her slender waist, and her traditional court lady attire showed off her curves and her flawless skin.
All of a sudden, Pei Zi Yun felt his memories of Ye Su'er's past and present lives shatter like glass. The barriers between them were gone, and everything became colorful.
"Brother Pei!" The moment the young lady saw him, she ran towards him.
Pei Zi Yun pulled the young lady into his embrace and called out, "Su'er!"
After not seeing each other for two years, Ye Su'er's beauty had returned. Her eyes were filled with life, and there was a hint of spirituality in her eyes. It was mesmerizing. At this moment, all of his memories came together.
Without hesitation, Pei Zi Yun kissed Ye Su'er.
It felt like an eternity. Ye Su'er was out of breath. She stretched out her hands and gently pushed Pei Zi Yun away and said, "Brother Pei, that year, that year I …."
Seeing that Ye Su'er was about to speak, Pei Zi Yun stopped her. Who hasn't been a fool before? Especially when he became an Elementary Scholar, and she was just an orphan.
"I thought that I would only be able to see you after three years. I didn't expect you to give me such a pleasant surprise."
"Let bygones be bygones. Don't think about it anymore. It's not your fault that you left, I believe you." Hearing Pei Zi Yun's words, Ye Su'er hugged him tightly, tears streaming down her face.
After a while, he spoke softly as he left, "My master told me that when I open the gates of heaven within three years, I can come and look for you. These past two years, I have been concentrating on my cultivation. I have already reached the seventh level."
As Ye Su'er said this, her face was filled with pride.
"You're already at the seventh level?" Pei Zi Yun looked at Ye Su'er in shock. Although he knew that the Three Ye's and Two Guo's were extremely talented, he did not expect her to be able to reach this level with just her talent alone.
"Hm, you're still talking about me? You're already at the ninth level." Ye Su'er lifted her head from Pei Zi Yun's embrace.
Pei Zi Yun listened to Ye Su'er's words and could only laugh bitterly. He had the memories of his past life, and had the Plum Blossom as a cheat. Ye Su'er, on the other hand, had relied entirely on her talent, which was terrifying.
"Let's go and see my aunt, who is also my master." Ye Su'er said as she pulled Pei Zi Yun's hand.
Hearing Ye Su'er's words, Pei Zi Yun's face darkened. Ye Su'er's aunt had thought that he had no potential, and had secretly abducted Ye Su'er. Opening the gates of heaven within three years was also a form of deception. The difficulty of opening the gates of heaven, even the Three Ye's and Two Guo's might not be able to do it within three years.
The two of them walked towards the monastery. The monastery leader of Peach Blossom Origins Monastery was talking to a lady, creating a beautiful scene. She stood there quietly, dressed in a bright purple dress. She looked calm and serene, completely different from the harsh image he had of her. Pei Zi Yun could not help but laugh bitterly, "Even I'm affected? Such a woman, in my mind, is like a witch. "
"Brother Pei, she's my aunt." Ye Su'er whispered into Pei Zi Yun's ear, and blew on it, tickling Pei Zi Yun's ear.
"Mm!" Pei Zi Yun replied softly. Seeing the two of them being so intimate, the lady's face did not look too good.
"Master!"
"Senior!"
Ye Su'er and Pei Zi Yun stepped forward to pay their respects to the Sect Leader. The Sect Leader then said coldly, "Get up. You are such a dishonest person. You wrote a poem for Su'er to steal my Su'er away, that's fine. But why did you write a poem for the Grand Princess, 'Looking back, that person is only there in the dusk'? Are you going to write a poem for the Grand Princess? Why did you write it so frivolously? "
Pei Zi Yun raised his head and saw that Ye Su'er's aunt had an ugly expression on her face. He thought to himself, "When I first came to the capital city, I wanted to be conferred a title. Because of the urgency of the situation, I decided to start with the Grand Princess. I didn't expect the Sect Leader to be so petty, to be so picky about this poem."
"Senior, this poem was written for the Sect Leader to confer a title …" Pei Zi Yun was about to explain when the Sect Leader interrupted him, "I don't care if you did it for the title, or if you like the Grand Princess. But why did you write such a poem? It's so frivolous. If you don't give it to Ye Su'er privately, but to the Grand Princess, are you treating Ye Su'er well?"
The Sect Leader of True Element Sect said coldly. Hearing this, Pei Zi Yun felt as if he was meeting his mother-in-law in his previous life.
"Senior …" Pei Zi Yun was about to explain.
"Master, brother Pei wrote this poem because he wanted to do a great service for the sect. Please don't be angry!" Ye Su'er walked up to the Sect Leader and coaxed her. The Sect Leader's expression softened, "Let me tell you, don't be blinded by men. You have to keep your eyes open. If not, you don't know when they will lie to you."
Hearing these words, Ye Su'er's face turned red. Pei Zi Yun was a little confused as well. No matter how decisive Pei Zi Yun was, he could not understand his future aunt's thoughts.
"Cough cough." The Sect Leader of Peach Blossom Monastery laughed and said, "Do you have any poems to write today? If you write a good poem, maybe Su'er's master will forgive you for not taking care of her. "
Pei Zi Yun had a look of helplessness on his face. However, he could not reject the Sect Leader's request. If the Sect Leader really got angry and tried to break them up, that would be bad.
Pei Zi Yun paced around a few steps. His heart was in China. His feelings from his past life were all mixed together. The regrets of his past life, the longing for each other, the loss and the inability to reminisce.
All of a sudden, he thought of something, "The original owner of this Sect Leader seemed to remember that she had fallen in love with a High Scholar. However, this High Scholar threw himself into chaos and assisted the Emperor to ascend to the throne. His Dao and Imperial Qi clashed, and she had no choice but to leave. It was said that this High Scholar was conferred the title of Earl.
"Since you want me to compose a poem, I shall use it to stab you. Let's see if you can still remain calm." Pei Zi Yun started reciting.
"There are fifty strings on the zither, each string is a pillar of remembrance of the years.
Zhuang Sheng dreamt of a butterfly, looking at the Emperor's heart in love with a cuckoo.
The moon in the sea has tears of a pearl, the sun in the lantian is warm.
Can this love be remembered? But at that time, I was lost. "
He recited the poem very slowly. Each word was like a clang of metal, striking the hearts of the crowd. Especially when he said, "Can this love be remembered?" But at that time, I was lost. As soon as he said this, the crowd fell silent.
The Monastery Leader paused for some time before realizing that something was wrong. It was obvious that he wanted to recite the poem for a long time, why did he end up saying that he was lost?
"Hm, what kind of poem did you compose? To think that I even wrote a topic for you, hoping to gain Su 'er's understanding. Who knew that you wouldn't be able to answer the question. Although this poem is good, it doesn't fit the mood."
As the Monastery Leader spoke, he heard someone sobbing. He turned around and saw the Sect Leader covering her face. Her entire body was trembling. This was the first time Ye Su 'er had seen her aunt in such a state. She was about to say something when she saw her aunt turn around and leave.
"This!" Pei Zi Yun was shocked. The Monastery Leader had already chased after her. At this point, only Pei Zi Yun and Su 'er were left.
"Brother Pei, reading this poem makes my heart ache, and I feel sad." Ye Su 'er tugged at Pei Zi Yun's sleeves and said, "Although the poem is good, we are not fated to be together. Thinking about it makes me afraid."
"Also, don't blame my aunt. Many years ago, she fell in love with someone, but he went to the capital city. I've heard from my fellow disciples that she has only cried three times in the past few years. The first time was when she had to leave that person. She cried."
"When she heard that he got married and had children, she cried again."
"The most recent time was when she heard that he had been conferred the title of Earl by the Emperor. She said that he had finally gotten what he wanted. That day, she drank a lot of wine and cried again."
"Don't be fooled by her looks. She's been through a lot."
"Su 'er, don't be afraid. I won't let you end up like this!" Pei Zi Yun mumbled to himself. He thought of the Sect Leader's stumbling footsteps and felt a tinge of regret.
