The bright sun shone on the Earth as the warm breeze mixed with the faint fishy smell of seawater. Outside the Everlasting Feast Hall's HQ on Jingmen Island, a black sedan was approaching at lightning speed.
Screech …
The black sedan was tens of meters away from the gate's barricade when it suddenly braked and came to a complete stop.
"Lift the barricade!"
The moment the middle-aged man in the driver's seat stepped out of the driver's door, he shouted at the four big men who had a drastic change in expression.
After the four big men saw the man in the driver's seat, they immediately showed a respectful expression. One of them immediately lifted the barricade, while the middle-aged man returned to the driver's seat. The moment the door was closed, he stepped on the accelerator to the minimum, and the car was like an arrow leaving the bowstring as it instantly rushed inside.
"What happened to Instructor Lu? Why is he in such a hurry? "
"Did something big happen? I didn't hear about any task from the top. "
"I think I just saw our Boss in the back seat."
"Boss? Our new Boss? "
"Yes!"
Amidst the discussion of the four big men, the black sedan quickly rushed into the Everlasting Feast Hall's parking lot. The moment Tan Xiu opened the door, he saw Gu Xiaoxue dashing over.
"Grand Master!"
Gu Xiaoxue's eyes were slightly red as she quickly dashed to the front of Tan Xiu. Behind her were a man and a woman. The man was dressed in a white robe and had soft, shoulder-length hair. He looked to be about 27 or 28 years old, while the woman was dressed in black casual clothes and had a black cloak draped over her shoulders. She also wore a black mask on her face.
"Boss! I'm Light. "
"Boss! I'm Dark. "
The young man and woman cupped their fists and spoke respectfully.
Tan Xiu raised his brows and patted Gu Xiaoxue's shoulder. While rushing toward the beach, he asked, "What's going on with these two?"
"Light and Dark are the geniuses trained by Master, Boss. They are the best among thousands of people," said Gu Xiaoxue. Just like me, they had already started cultivating as soon as they stepped onto the path of cultivation. However, their identities are so special that only a few people in the Everlasting Feast Hall know of their existence. However, their names are on the list I gave you earlier. "
Tan Xiu thought about it and remembered that he had seen the words "Light" and "Dark" before, but he didn't expect them to have special identities.
"To be able to stand out from thousands of people means that your aptitude is not bad. If you perform well, I will teach you stronger cultivation methods and more powerful immortal techniques in the future. Loyalists, if you don't die prematurely, I can give you even greater opportunities. “
Light and Dark looked at each other, and then their eyes burst with surprise.
"We understand!"
Tan Xiu nodded and sprinted to the shoreline as fast as he could. He didn't even take the boat. With the use of the Imperial Wind Technique, his feet seemed to be stepping on the surface of the sea. As the layers of ripples spread, he continued to advance into the sea.
"Wind Riding Spell?"
Gu Xiaoxue, Light, and Dark looked at each other with a surprised look on their faces.
Immediately after.
The three of them also quickly used the Wind Riding Spell and followed behind Tan Xiu like a shadow, quickly rushing toward the sea ahead. Their speed was much faster than Tan Xiu's. In just a few breaths, they had already maintained a balance with Tan Xiu.
Gu Xiaoxue waved her arms and the seawater was split into two. As they quickly sprinted to the front of the exquisite pagoda, Ji Chimei, who had been waiting for a long time, personally opened the pagoda's door.
"My Lord, Master is waiting for you on the seventh floor."
"OK!"
Tan Xiu complied and instantly rushed to the upper floor. Gu Yan 'er, Light, and Dark were stopped by Ji Chimei, who silently shook her head.
"Elder Ji, Master must be very happy."
Gu Xiaoxue said softly.
Ji Chimei's old face looked a bit gratified as she nodded and sighed. "Of course she'll be happy. Master has been searching for My Lord … In short, she has suffered a lot for My Lord. I only hope that My Lord can understand her feelings … "
On the seventh floor of the exquisite pagoda.
Gu Yan 'er, clad in a white dress, was sitting cross-legged on the ice bed. Her fingers were forming strange seals as a chill surged from her body.
At this moment, the temperature on the seventh floor was much lower than when she was unconscious.
Despite having a great improvement in his cultivation, Tan Xiu still felt the chill invading his body at this moment.
The moment Tan Xiu stepped into the seventh floor, his eyes were locked on the breathtakingly beautiful face that was as pale as paper.
His footsteps instantly halted.
His heartbeat accelerated.
The warmth that came from his soul was like a gurgling spring, passing this warmth to his limbs and five bones. It was as if the chill no longer had the slightest effect on him.
Gu Yan 'er's eyelashes fluttered as her bright eyes opened. She was slightly startled, but a moment later, her eyes were filled with sparkling tears. Her tender body floated up like a fairy dancing in the air, slowly coming to the front of Tan Xiu.
"Yan 'er …"
Tan Xiu's lips wriggled, his voice a bit hoarse.
The sparkling tears in Gu Yan 'er's eyes were finally like a broken sea. Big drops of pearls fell from her eyes, sliding down her face and wetting her clothes as she threw herself into Tan Xiu's arms.
"Master!"
Her cries were like a cuckoo crying blood, like a swallow returning to its bowels. Thousands of years of obsession turned into a trembling voice, unable to express her longing.
Tan Xiu hugged Gu Yan 'er's thin and cold body. There wasn't the slightest evil thought in his heart. His heart was filled with warmth and love, guilt, and longing. Gently lifting his hand, he stroked Gu Yan 'er's smooth black hair and murmured, "It's good that you've woken up. Master can see you again. Another part of my lifelong wish has come true. Good child. You're my good child! "
Gu Yan 'er's delicate body turned stiff, and her whimpering instantly subsided. She pulled away from Tan Xiu and reached out to hold Tan Xiu's face, shaking her head with tears in her eyes.
Tan Xiu was keenly aware of Gu Yan 'er's abnormality. He quickly grabbed her hand and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Yan' er? Are you feeling unwell again? "
Gu Yan 'er shook her head and took a deep breath. Her eyes were full of deep affection as she shook her head and said, "Master, Yan' er is very well now. I'm really very well now. To be able to see Master again, even if I have to die now, Yan 'Er would be willing. Yan 'er has never been afraid of hardships and hardships in order to find Master for thousands of years. I'm already satisfied as long as I can see Master again. "
Tan Xiu pulled her hand and softly said, "Don't worry, Yan 'er! You've seen Master. He's still alive and not dead. Nothing will happen to Master again in the future, and I won't abandon you again. "
Gu Yan 'er nodded repeatedly. Although she couldn't stop her tears from flowing, there was a bright smile on her beautiful and pale face. The smile was pure and full of satisfaction.
Tan Xiu's expression suddenly turned serious. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Yan 'er, Master promises you that I'll find the Chrono Crystal and the Demonic Revival Grass no matter what price I have to pay in the future to heal your injury. Trust me. "
The person Gu Yan 'er relied on and trusted the most in her life was Tan Xiu. Upon hearing Tan Xiu's words, she nodded without hesitation and said, "Yan' er believes in Master."
Tan Xiu nodded and said, "Also, although Master has returned to Earth and my cultivation has turned into nothingness, believe me, I'll bring you back to the Immortal World sooner or later. I'll make Shade Demon Zhu Wushou pay a painful price for hurting you. You're my disciple, and only I can hit, scold, and punish you. No one else can. "
Gu Yan 'er quickly shook her head and bitterly said, "I don't want you to take revenge for me, Master. As long as you're safe and sound and Yan' er can happily follow you in the future, Yan 'er will be satisfied."
Tan Xiu seriously said, "You'll be happily following me in the future, but Shade Demon Zhu Wushou must die, and he can't die so easily. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Now that we, Master and disciple, have met again, let Master take a good look at you. "
Gu Yan 'er once again revealed a bright smile and nodded. "Master, your appearance has changed. Although you still have your shadow, this is the real you, right?"
Tan Xiu nodded and sighed. "That's right! Back then, a wisp of Master's divine sense accidentally traveled through space and entered the body of Tan Xiu, who shares the same name and surname. I thought that I could only find my way back if I could break through the shackles of Immortal World and become a Deity. I didn't expect that they … would return to Earth again. On the other hand, Yan 'er, although you look a few years older than when you disappeared, your appearance hasn't changed. You're still so beautiful, and you're still Master's favorite disciple. "
Gu Yan 'er smiled and said, "Master, it turns out that you were a wisp of divine sense that came to the Immortal World. No wonder I had to go through so many hardships to peep at some clues from the Heavenly Mystery. Fortunately, in my last gamble, I finally made the right bet. "
Tan Xiu sighed and said, "Yan 'er, Master knows that you must have suffered a lot and suffered a lot in the past thousands of years. In fact, you shouldn't have wasted so many years for me. What Master hopes for is that you can live happily and become an Immortal or a Deity in the future. Your behavior in coming to Earth this time has filled Master's heart with guilt. "
Gu Yan 'er shook her head and smilingly said, "You're the only source of my happiness, Master. I'm actually very regretful that I shouldn't have gone to that hopeless situation to find … "
Tan Xiu gently shook his head and interrupted Gu Yan 'er's words, saying, "Yan' er, if I were still in the Immortal World now, I would think that you really shouldn't have gone there. But now I feel that you're really right to go there. All the Supremes in the entire Immortal World know that you're my favorite disciple. I was ambushed by them and almost died. If you were still by my side at that time, I'm afraid you wouldn't have a good ending either. "
Gu Yan 'er fell into silence.
She knew that what Tan Xiu said made sense. Had she been by her Master's side at that time, she would have probably died at that time. If she were really killed by them at that time, there would probably be no chance for them to reunite at this moment.
