"No," Perfected Lord Tianlan said. "Don't be meddlesome."
Lu Chen quietened down. After a while, he nodded without saying anything.
Perfected Lord Tianlan looked at him and frowned. "Ma Xiaoyun is right. You do seem to be a little off lately."
"Because I want to collect that person's corpse?"
"Because your heart softened." Perfected Lord Tianlan said, "Ten years ago, you weren't soft-hearted or hesitant. You didn't care about other people's feelings or worry about dragging them down. I think I told you a long time ago that shadows like you don't live long. "
Lu Chen was silent. After a while, he said, "You're right. I've probably changed in the past ten years. Why? You don't like it?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan said, "Of course I don't like it because you might lose your life."
"But I think it's alright." Lu Chen said calmly, "Although my heart softened and my cultivation was crippled, I saw things that I never saw before and felt a state of mind that I never knew before. I think it's all good."
Lu Chen looked up at the famous Perfected Lord in front of him and said, "Actually, sometimes I also wonder if I would still stab Yun Shouyang to death without hesitation if I was in that desolate valley now."
Perfected Lord Tianlan narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Chen. "Why? Do you think what you did 10 years ago was wrong?"
Lu Chen shook his head. "No, I don't regret it." After a pause, he said, "You're right. I was probably soft-hearted. A shadow shouldn't be soft-hearted. I think I'm not suitable to be a shadow anymore. "
The forest quieted down. After a while, Perfected Lord Tianlan said, "It's been hard on you all these years. Fortunately, you'll be free after this matter is done."
Lu Chen smiled. "Really?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan laughed. "Why would I lie to you? You're my only disciple and I'm counting on you to inherit my legacy in the future. Oh, speaking of this, my lineage has a habit. Every generation's patriarch will pass on one of his Daoist titles to his favorite disciple, which will then be passed down from generation to generation. My master is Old Ancestor Tian Hong. He imparted the Daoist name 'Tian' to me, so I'm called Tian Lan. "
"In the future, I will also pass on the word 'Tian' to you, Lu Chen," Perfected Lord Tianlan said to Lu Chen with a smile.
Lu Chen shrugged and said, "Then what should I be called, Lu Tian? Tian Chen? Lu Tianchen? It doesn't sound imposing at all. It doesn't sound good. "
Perfected Lord Tianlan thought for a moment and said, "How about Heavenly Shadow?"
"Sky Shadow?" Lu Chen repeated.
Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled. "How is it? I think it's pretty good."
"Forget it, don't talk to me about this. Otherwise, I'll be entangled with a shadow for the rest of my life. Damn baldy, let's make a deal. This is the last time! "Lu Chen said to Perfected Lord Tianlan with a smile.
Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded. "Yes, it's the last time. But this name is really not bad. Think about it again, haha … "
Amidst the laughter, he stood up. His wide sleeves fluttered like floating clouds. A strong gust of wind blew and the fallen leaves danced in the air. The entire forest rustled. Suddenly, birds flew up in alarm. His figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
In the depths of the forest, only Lu Chen was left. He looked at the strong gale and his expression suddenly turned strange, as though he was thinking about something. After a while, he muttered to himself, "Old Ancestor Tian Hong's favorite disciple didn't take over the Kunlun Party …"
…
Amidst the clouds in the sky, on the winter peak.
Amidst the howling wind and snow, White Lotus and Zhuo Xian stood in front of the Wind Speech Disc that had been opened once again. They looked at the violent wind and snow inside and then heard Hakushin Jinkun's voice from the depths of the wind and snow.
"Lian 'er, leave the Wind Speech Disc with your second senior brother for the next few days. There are many important matters of the sect that require him to contact me from time to time. You're still young, so don't be distracted. Just focus on cultivating in the cave abode."
White Lotus lowered her head slightly and said calmly, "Yes, I understand."
"Go."
"I'll take my leave." White Lotus bowed to the Wind Speech Disc and then nodded at Zhuo Xian. Zhuo Xian smiled and then White Lotus turned and walked out.
Zhuo Xian was the only one left in the cave abode. After a while, Hakushin Jinkun's voice was heard again, "How's Lian 'er's cultivation recently?"
Zhuo Xian said, "Junior sister is a genius. Her cultivation progress is extremely fast and has long surpassed me when I was her age. I'm really ashamed of my inferiority."
Hakushin Jinkun's voice sounded like he was in a good mood. He even smiled and said, "Yes, Lian 'er was born with five pillars of bone. Her cultivation is indeed better than ordinary people. But she's still young and has a long road ahead of her. As her senior brother, you have to take care of her from time to time. "
Zhuo Xian cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I understand."
Hakushin Jinkun asked again, "How's the situation in the sect?"
Zhuo Xian said, "Everything is fine now. The day before yesterday, Senior Brother Idle Month resolutely ordered the execution of the Devil Cult's spies. His thunderous measures deterred everyone. Those rumors have decreased a lot these days."
Hakushin Jinkun sneered and said, "Those troublemakers are just people who look fierce but are weak inside. Even if they cultivate to Yuanying, they won't be able to achieve anything big. Now the only one the sect has to worry about is my junior brother Tianlan. As long as he doesn't return to the mountain, there won't be any big trouble. "
Zhuo Xian's eyes flashed. He lowered his voice and said, "Master, do you mean that Martial Uncle Tianlan … is dissatisfied with Eldest Senior Brother?"
"The person he's dissatisfied with is probably me!" Hakushin Jinkun seemed to be in a good mood today. He did not hide anything from his second disciple and said lightly, "But it doesn't matter. As long as I'm here, he can't do anything."
Zhuo Xian bowed his head deeply and said respectfully, "Master is wise."
"I'll meditate and practice. But since I promised Idle Month, I'll still go to the sect council on his behalf that night. You can come to me then. "
"Yes."
The sound of the wind and snow gradually subsided and gradually disappeared. The Wind Speech Plate also quieted down and returned to its usual quiet appearance. Zhuo Xian walked forward and gently put away the magic treasure. He seemed to be in deep thought.
…
This night, when the moon rose, a figure swept from the night sky and landed on Feiyan Platform.
The moonlight shone coldly on the left and right, and the platform looked empty. The man was about to go to the cave residence on the mountain wall to call the door when he suddenly exclaimed and turned to look at the other side. He saw a woman not far away from the wooden house. It was Su Qingjun. She was standing there looking up at the moon, lost in thought.
The man walked over and deliberately increased his pace. Su Qingjun immediately felt the movement behind her. She turned her head and was stunned at first. Then she called out, "Master, why are you here?"
The man was Masato Kihara, the leader of the Kunlun Party. He walked to Su Qingjun and looked around. Finally, his eyes fell on Su Qingjun's face. He said with some surprise, "What are you doing here?"
Su Qingjun said, "Tonight's night is not bad. The moonlight shone on the sea of clouds. It is quite magnificent. I wanted to come over and take a look."
Masato Kihara rolled his eyes and said, "You have lived here for a few years. You should be tired of it."
Su Qingjun was silent for a moment and said, "No. I was immersed in cultivation for the past few years. After I came back, I often hid in the cave residence. If no one told me about the surrounding scenery, the sun rising and the moon setting, the sea of clouds and so on, I really did not look at it seriously."
Masato Kihara looked at the sea of clouds in the distance. Under the moonlight, the sea of clouds shimmered with silver light. It was like the waves of the sea. It was very beautiful. He nodded and said, "Yes, we cultivators sometimes need to understand the nature of heaven and earth. Although this state can only be understood by cultivators above the realm of Yuanying, but for a genius with extraordinary talent like you, it is beneficial for your cultivation to understand more in the realm of Jin Dan."
Su Qingjun nodded and said, "Yes, disciple understands." She looked at Masato Kihara and said, "Master, you came here tonight. Is there something you need me for?"
Masato Kihara did not look at the sea of clouds. After a moment of hesitation, he said to Su Qingjun, "Yes, tonight I went to see an … old friend. I passed by here on my way back to the mountain. I wanted to come down to see you and have a chat with you."
Su Qingjun nodded and said, "Oh. Master, please wait for a moment. I will go get some spiritual tea. We can enjoy the moonlight together."
Masato Kihara waved her hand and said, "I don't want to drink. The taste of the tea is too bland. I will drink my own wine." As he spoke, he took out a flask of wine out of nowhere and stuffed it into his mouth before gulping down a few mouthfuls. Su Qingjun couldn't help but laugh. She shook her head and said nothing.
Masato Kihara drank the wine and let out a satisfied sigh. "Qingjun, you have been my disciple for so many years. Do you have any regrets?"
"Regret?" Su Qingjun was taken aback. She said in astonishment, "Master, why would you say that? I have never regretted it. It is all thanks to your guidance that I can improve day by day. How could I have any other thoughts? "
Masato Kihara smiled and said, "Yes, you are a good child." As he spoke, he drank another mouthful of wine and continued, "But I think you know what's going on in our Kunlun Sect. Our Tie Zhi has been declining for many years, and there are still many areas where we suffer losses. Although I've tried my best to help you fight for it, sometimes it's inevitable that there will be times when we can't do it well. I'm afraid that you'll be wronged because of your talent."
Su Qingjun smiled and said, "Master, you think too much. I am very good."
Masato Kihara stared at Su Qingjun's beautiful face and suddenly smiled. He said, "Yes, you are really a good child. But don't worry, there will be a day in the future when Master will properly train you and let you be like all the other geniuses in the sect. You will be able to display your strengths and make our Tetsu branch flourish! "
As he spoke, he seemed to be a little excited. He unconsciously exerted force in his hand and directly crushed the wine bottle with a muffled sound.
The wine splashed out. Under the moonlight, the countless water droplets in the air refracted a magnificent and strange rainbow, as if leading to the distant depths of the night.
