He counted the other person's eyelashes.
Normally, he wouldn't dare to look at him so presumptuously, for fear of exposing the things he had hidden in front of this person. Only at night could his suppressed emotions be slightly released.
The twisted shadow spread from the ground and climbed onto the bed frame of the carved bed. It swayed with Shen Shu's breathing.
His eyes grew darker.
He thought, this person was usually cold and lonely, like a lotus blooming silently on a distant mountain. Even if his body was stained with his blood, he was still noble and untainted.
… But he had schemed and plotted, and was full of lies.
He didn't tell this person the truth about many things. One of the most important things was his constitution.
That person only knew that he was a half-finished devil puppet and that there was still a chance to turn things around. But he didn't know that he was not only a devil puppet, but also a natural … monster.
The shadow on the bed frame twisted crazily.
If this person knew the truth, would he still treat him so well?
He probably wouldn't. He thought.
Shizun.
He murmured these two words and moved slightly closer. He lowered his head to smell the cold and gentle fragrance on the other person's body.
Shizun.
He murmured again in his heart. A satisfied smile slowly appeared on his pale face.

The morning light broke.
In the open space in front of the bamboo building, Ye Yunlan was teaching Shen Shu swordsmanship.
Shen Shu's body was still polluted, so he couldn't use his Qi to cultivate. But if he only learned swordsmanship, there was no harm.
"There are five realms of swordsmanship, Qi Manipulation, Mind Concentration, Master, Hinayana, and Mahayana," Ye Yunlan explained.
"Shizun," Shen Shu asked, "You told me before … there are nine realms of cultivation. Now you say that there are five realms of swordsmanship. I don't understand. Between cultivation realms and swordsmanship realms, which one … is more important? "
"The nine realms of cultivation represent the process of a cultivator refining his body between heaven and earth and transcending from the mortal world. The five realms of swordsmanship represent the depth of a cultivator's understanding of swordsmanship. "
"If you ask which one is more important …" Ye Yunlan said lightly, "Cultivation is the foundation of everything. If the mortal body isn't refined, it's just a hundred-year-old skin. But if you want to transcend the mortal world and become immortal, it's not enough to just accumulate cultivation. "
Shen Shu still looked confused.
"Let me give you an example." Ye Yunlan said, "Tenzong Sect Leader Qiyun Jun … has reached the mortal evolution state, but before he reaches the mortal evolution state, his sword dao will reach the grand completion state first. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to successfully cross the Mortal Shedding Tribulation. "
Shen Shu was suddenly enlightened. "I understand."
Ye Yunlan: "Good that you understand. Now, let me see your sword. "
Shen Shu nodded and did as he was told.
Ye Yunlan observed from the side. He had already experienced Shen Shu's sword when he was in the Medicine Hut. However, at that time, the light was dim. Now that he looked at it carefully, he saw more problems.
Shen Shu's movements were swift and powerful.
However, he had probably never held a sword before.
"When a sword cultivator wields a sword, one must calm one's heart and focus one's mind. One's mind must be connected with the sword, and one's heart must be one with the sword. This is the beginning of the way of the sword."
"When you hold the sword, the web between your thumb and index finger needs to be facing the blade of the sword. Your five fingers need to be tightly wrapped around the sword hilt … like this."
Ye Yunlan walked behind Shen Shu and leaned over to hold his hand, carefully adjusting his posture.
Shen Shu's body stiffened slightly. "Shizun …"
