"Miss Zi Yan, I am only a few years older than you. We are of the same generation. You can call me Senior Brother Hua." As Second Senior Brother spoke, he tilted his head slightly and looked at Zi Yan while maintaining his tilted head posture.
His gaze was gentle, and there was a smile on his face that was like the spring breeze. Second Senior Brother had an extraordinary appearance, and his smile was extremely amiable. At this moment, when he maintained this posture and smiled under the sun, with the blue sky and white clouds as the background and the flowers and grass as the background, there was an indescribable charm to him.
Zi Yan frowned and took a few steps back. She looked at the man in front of her warily.
"Miss Zi Yan, I heard that you are looking for my Third Junior Brother. I know a little about this …" Second Senior Brother looked at Zi Yan and paused.
Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and did not speak.
"I am deeply sorry about this. I hate this kind of behavior. Miss Zi Yan, don't worry. If you can't find Hu Zi, I can help you. We must find him!"
"Are you serious?" Zi Yan looked doubtful.
"Of course it's true. Don't worry, Miss Ziyan. I'll bring you to him right now. I hate this kind of behavior the most. I would never do such a thing." Second Senior Brother coughed and his expression became stern.
"However, Miss Zi Yan, my Third Junior Brother is very pitiful. He has been an orphan since he was young. In reality, you should understand why he went to … to investigate.
Sigh. He is a child who grew up without parental love. I am like his brother and father. I hope Miss Zi Yan can forgive this child. " Second Senior Brother sighed and maintained his posture with his hands behind his back. However, he moved his feet slightly and let the sun shine on the side of his face.
Zi Yan stared in shock. She didn't know much about Hu Zi, so when she heard his words, she hesitated. If these words had come out of Hu Zi's mouth, she would definitely not have believed them. However, she had personally witnessed the power of this man before her. A powerful expert with a mysterious cultivation base like this, when he said these words, she couldn't help but believe him a little.
"I am like his brother, like his father. I will take responsibility for the child's mistakes! Miss Zi Yan, don't … don't make things difficult for this child. "Second Senior Brother looked at Zi Yan with an extremely sincere expression.
"Child?" Zi Yan hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Of course he's a child. Don't be fooled by his big appearance. In fact, he's still a child," Second Senior Brother said without hesitation.
"This …" Zi Yan became even more hesitant. She looked at the man before her. There was not a single trace of falsehood in his expression and expression. Especially at this moment, as she stared at him, she felt that there was an indescribable feeling to this man's gentleness under the sunlight, causing one to be unable to help but be convinced.
"Therefore, Miss Ziyan, you and I are of the same generation. Don't make things difficult for me. I will take responsibility for his mistakes. Whatever punishment you want, I will bear it alone!" Second senior brother flicked his sleeves and changed his position, causing the sunlight to fall on the side of his face as he stared at Zi Yan.
Zi Yan was silent for a moment before she shook her head.
"Forget it. He's quite pitiful. I can understand his behavior. Let's leave it at that. Second Martial Uncle …"
"Senior Brother Hua!" Second Brother corrected him sternly.
Zi Yan paused for a moment, then softly said, "... Senior Hua, Zi Yan has disturbed you for the past few days. I'll take my leave now."
"Miss Zi Yan!" Second senior brother's expression instantly became even more stern.
"I told you that I will take responsibility for his mistakes. How about this? I'll go with you to the seventh summit and punish myself for protecting you for three years. I'll use these three years to pay for Hu Zi's mistakes." Once second senior brother finished speaking, he sighed. His gentle expression and firm words … if Hu Zi was by his side, perhaps … just perhaps, he would be very touched?
"Senior brother Hua … there's really no need for that." Zi Yan could not take it anymore and took a few steps back.
"Three years isn't enough? Alright then. Ten years. I'm willing to punish myself for ten years and go to the seventh summit to protect you. " Second senior brother was just about to take a step forward, but after a moment of hesitation, he did not move forward, because the sunlight one step away from him was not as bright as this place.
"Ah, there's really no need for that," Zi Yan said anxiously. Zi Yan asked anxiously. Su Ming's second senior brother's enthusiasm was starting to scare her a little.
"Miss Zi Yan, in truth …" Second senior brother looked at Zi Yan and a solemn expression appeared on his face.
"In truth, I was also one of the people who watched you that time. That's why you have to accept my apology."
When Zi Yan heard his words, she was momentarily stunned before a wry smile appeared on her face.
"Senior brother Hua, stop joking around. I know you weren't there. Ah, that's it then. I'll take my leave first." As Zi Yan spoke, she quickly retreated to the stairs, intending to quickly leave the place.
Her entire body felt uncomfortable in this place.
"Miss Zi Yan, I'm really there!" When he saw that Zi Yan was about to leave, second senior brother took a few steps forward.
"That's it then. I'm leaving …" Zi Yan did not even turn her head back. She quickly ran down the stairs in a pathetic manner. By the looks of it, if second senior brother chased after her, she would definitely jump into the air and escape.
"No way!" Second Senior Brother took a step forward and immediately appeared in front of Zi Yan who was speeding away.
"Miss Zi Yan, you're a magnanimous person, but I'm not someone who doesn't know what's right and wrong. If you won't accept my apology, then you have to accept three promises from me. You can come and find me anytime you want," second senior brother said sternly.
"Alright, alright. I'll remember it. Senior brother Hua, I'll take my leave first. You don't have to send me off, you don't have to send me off …" Zi Yan quickly nodded her head and quickly flew up, avoiding second senior brother and charging into the distance. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared without a trace.
Just as Zi Yan was frightened by second senior brother's enthusiasm and quickly left in a pathetic manner, not caring that Han Cang Zi was still around, Su Ming's right hand finished the final stroke on his drawing board outside his cave abode.
The drawing was completed. When Su Ming handed the drawing board to Han Cang Zi, she looked at the drawing board and fell into a momentary daze. After a long while, she put the drawing board down and cast a glance at Su Ming. Then, with a calm expression, she turned around and left into a long arc.
The drawing board was completely blank.
Those who could see it would definitely be able to see it, and those who could not see it would not be able to see it no matter how hard they tried.
Su Ming did not know whether Han Cang Zi saw the drawing. He looked at Han Cang Zi's departing figure and closed his eyes after a long while. When he opened his eyes once again, they were still as calm as still water.
He picked up the drawing board quietly and immersed himself in copying Si Ma Xin's sword slash once again. Every single time he copied it, he would gain some sort of epiphany. Bit by bit, he would accumulate his knowledge, and gradually, he could feel the might of heaven when he swung that one line.
Three days later, Hu Zi quietly came out of his hiding spot. When he saw that Zi Yan was no longer paying any attention to him, he became pleased with himself and spent all day drinking in his cave abode. As he mumbled under his breath, he would fiddle with some ice cubes and combine them together. When he felt uncomfortable, he would even let out a strange laugh.
Second senior brother was still the same as usual, fiddling with his plants. However, he gained another hobby, and that was to search for an angle where the sun shone the brightest during the day so that the sun would shine on the side of his face. It was as if he really liked this action.
As for his Master, Tian Xie Zi, he also gradually walked out after Zi Yan stopped coming to the ninth summit. Every single morning, the people in the ninth summit would hear long roars coming from the top of the mountain.
Those roars were like thunder and rumbled in the air. As they roared, Tian Xie Zi would fly out and head in different directions to do something. Usually, he would only return in the afternoon.
As time passed by, Su Ming also learned about his Master's hobby.
At the same time, as time passed by, and another month went by, Su Ming discovered another unique hobby of his Master, Tian Xie Zi!
Su Ming only learned about this hobby from his second senior brother's words and his own observations.
"Look, Master is wearing white clothes today. He should be flying towards the north." Second senior brother was sitting on the platform outside Su Ming's cave abode. Su Ming was sitting by his side. At that moment, second senior brother lifted his head and looked at the mountain before he spoke with a sentimental tone.
As he spoke, a roar came from the mountain, and Tian Xie Zi, dressed in white, flew up and charged towards the north.
"If Master is in a good mood in the morning, he'll do this. Youngest junior brother, you have to get used to it."
"Master is wearing a red robe today. He's flying to the west."
"Master is wearing black today. He must be flying south …" Hu Zi was sitting beside second senior brother. He held a pot of wine in his hand and mumbled under his breath one morning without even looking at the sky.
Just as he expected, Tian Xie Zi, dressed in black, was flying south from the mountain.
"Master is wearing green today and a green straw hat. Look, you're in a bad mood today. He's flying east …" Second senior brother did not lift his head. He held a blade of grass in his hand and spoke softly.
Su Ming was drawing Si Ma Xin's sword slash. When he heard this, he instinctively lifted his head to look, and a stunned look appeared on his face.
As the roar came from the top of the mountain, Tian Xie Zi, dressed in green and wearing a green straw hat, stepped into the air and flew … towards the north.
This scene immediately stunned Hu Zi, who was drinking, and he quickly rubbed his eyes.
"That's not right. Why is Master flying north?"
Second senior brother also lifted his head at that moment, and his expression suddenly turned grave.
"Master, something's wrong!"
Zi Che, who was meditating not too far away, had gained a deeper understanding of the strangeness of the ninth summit over the past few days. When he heard this, especially when he saw the changes in Su Ming's second and third senior brothers' expressions, his heart immediately raced. He had a feeling that he was about to discover some sort of secret.
At this moment, Tian Xie Zi, who was dressed in green, was flying towards the north. Suddenly, he paused in the air for a moment and seemed to mutter a few words. Then, he turned his head and flew towards the east …
Hu Zi rolled his eyes and picked up his wine cup to continue drinking, as if he was displeased with Tian Xie Zi's actions.
Su Ming frowned and cast a glance at his second senior brother. He saw a rare hint of seriousness in his second senior brother's eyes.
"The last time Master made such a mistake was fifteen years ago … Could it be that the purple robed him is about to appear again..?" Second senior brother sucked in a deep breath and looked at Su Ming and Hu Zi.
"Purple robes?" Su Ming also looked at his second senior brother.
