Chapter 442 Impossible! My Master can only be mine. If he chooses Shuangyue, I don't want him.
As the talisman touched the ground, the rune light gradually faded.
Xu Wan and others landed on the bluestone slabs of Lingshan Square.
Si Yao was kneeling in the middle of the square, sorting medicinal herbs. When she heard the noise, she immediately stood up, lightly brushed the hem of her skirt with her bare hands, and bowed respectfully:
"Hello, Senior Sister Xu."
"Hello, Chief Taoist!"
"Hello, Senior Brother Wei!"
She was dressed in a snow-white disciple's uniform, with a silver ribbon tied around her waist and a white veil covering her face, looking mysterious and attractive.
Xu Wan quickly stepped forward, grabbed Si Yao's wrist, and took her to the ancient pine tree in the corner of the square.
The pine trees are towering, with lush branches and leaves, casting a cool shade.
Xu Wan lowered her voice, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes:
"Si Yao, you have to be careful of Shuang Yue, she is not a good person."
"If she can treat Liu Xiaohan like this today, she will definitely not let you go in the future!"
"Why don't you go to my adoptive father and become his disciple!"
Upon hearing this, Si Yao just shook her head slightly, with a complicated look in her eyes, but did not speak.
She knew Xu Wan had good intentions, but some things...
At this moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps.
Shuangyue was already standing in front of Xu Wan.
The gorgeous snow-white dress, the high bun, the hands behind the back,
The tall and straight jade peaks and the height of 1.7 meters made Xu Wan envious. That was the figure she dreamed of having.
Shuangyue glanced coldly at the two people under the tree, especially when she saw Xu Wan holding Si Yao's hand, her brows frowned instantly and her face showed displeasure.
"Xu Wan, you and Si Yao are quite close."
Frost Moon's voice was as cold as ice, yet full of jealousy.
Xu Wan rolled her eyes and said unhappily:
"What? You have an objection?"
Frost Moon's right hand, which was behind his back, turned over, surrounded by silver light.
She wanted to teach Xu Wan, the ignorant cat demon, a lesson, but gave up because of the Emperor's will!
Jin Xi, who was applying medicine to the injured monk, keenly noticed the strong coldness emanating from Shuang Yue.
He put down the medicine bottle in his hand and found an excuse to step forward and interrupt. He saw Jin Xi walk forward with a smile and look up at Shuangyue.
"Master, the pills you gave me are all used up!"
As he spoke, Jin Xi stretched out his hand towards Shuang Yue.
Shuangyue's gaze shifted away from Xu Wan and she glanced at Jin Xi coldly!
Then, he turned to Luo Ge who was treating a monk in the distance.
"Go ask Luoge for it. I'm tired."
Shuangyue didn't want to get entangled with Xu Wan, so she could only choose to walk away!
The words have not yet been spoken!
Her figure flashed, leaving only a faint silver light.
Xu Wan widened her eyes, clenched her fists in anger and raised them up.
"No way, you left right after I arrived. You must have done something wrong!"
Si Yao hurried forward, gently pulled Xu Wan's sleeve, and said in a soft voice:
"Senior Sister Xu, don't say that."
"Shuangyue Sect Leader...it's not easy for her either!"
Bai Yuan and Wei Ranzhu stood aside, looking at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Cough cough!"
Bai Yuan coughed lightly, trying to break the awkward atmosphere, but Wei Ranzhu just shook his head slightly, signaling him not to say anything more.
The two of them just stood there silently, as if they had become two stone statues in the square.
Seeing this, Jin Xi had an idea and squeezed in between Xu Wan and Si Yao, grabbing Xu Wan's hand:
"Xu Wan, why don't you sign up for the planting competition?"
"Today, our sect leader Shuangyue proposed that disciples sign up for a planting competition to plant soul-nourishing grass and refine soul-nourishing pills."
"The Emperor needs the Soul Nourishing Pill to stabilize his spirit while he is in seclusion practicing!"
"Also...if you sign up for the Planting Competition, you can receive one thousand taels of mid-grade purple gold spirit stones!"
"It was Shuangyue herself who paid out the spirit stones herself!"
Xu Wan was stunned when she heard this.
Then, she hurriedly grabbed Jin Xi's hand, her eyes full of confusion and worry:
"Jin Xi, why don't you call me aunt now?"
"And how is Shuangyue treating you well? Has she ever bullied you?"
"Don't be bribed by her few spirit stones!"
Jin Xi smiled.
"Shuangyue is quite good, she just has a cold personality and doesn't like to talk much."
"Do you have any misunderstanding about her?"
"She's been very kind to me and taught me a lot. She's even more caring than my own mother!"
"I... quite like her..."
Xu Wan snorted coldly when he heard this, and frowned:
"Hmph, Jin Xi, you were raised by my master and me, why are you siding with outsiders now?"
"Shuangyue is being nice to you... but she clearly has ulterior motives!"
"I want to buy your heart! You're still a child, you don't understand the treacherous nature of human hearts!"
"And...your mother is Yan Wu!"
Jin Xi shook his head slightly, with a serious look in his eyes:
"Of course, no one can replace my mother. I mean, Shuangyue takes good care of me!"
"It's not wrong for Shuangyue to like the Emperor, and the Emperor didn't marry you."
"As for who I'll choose in the future, marry Shuangyue or you, or both..."
"I think... if you really love him, you should go along with him instead of causing trouble for Shuangyue!"
Jin Xi said this simply because he didn't want to see Xu Wan and Shuang Yue fighting and getting themselves bruised and battered!
On the other hand, Xu Wan was instantly enraged and her face turned red.
Then a roar sounded!
"Impossible! Master can only be mine. If he chooses Shuangyue, I won't accept him. I find him dirty!"
She turned around to leave, but was grabbed by Si Yao.
Si Yao soothed softly:
"Senior Sister Xu, don't leave yet."
"Emperor Zun... he has recently encountered a bottleneck in his retreat and needs a large amount of soul nourishing pills."
"The Frost Moon Sect Master proposed holding a planting competition for the Emperor's benefit."
"If you really care about the Emperor, why not sign up for the competition and refine the Soul Nourishing Pill for the Emperor?"
"And there are spirit stone rewards for signing up for the planting competition!"
"Although the registration has ended, you can go to your godfather to apply!"
Xu Wan stopped and looked back at Si Yao with a look of grievance.
"Humph, I don't want to make medicine for him..."
"Brother Bai Yuan, let's go back to the Dao Sect!"
Suddenly, Xu Wan held Bai Yuan's hand.
The cool and soft touch instantly made Bai Yuan's heart flutter and his ears turn red!
He just laughed heartily:
"Haha, Junior Brother! What are you doing?!"
Seeing him like this, Xu Wan realized her rudeness. She hurriedly let go of his hand, lowered her head, and began to apologize.
"Senior Brother Bai Yuan, I'm sorry! I'm so rude!!"
Hearing this, Bai Yuan smiled calmly and flicked his sleeves.
"It doesn't matter!"
His eyes were as clear as a spring. He turned to the silent Wei Ranzhu and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Master Wei, your injuries also need to be healed."
"If I go back to Shuangyue now, I'm afraid it will only cause her more trouble and become an eyesore!"
"Why not follow me and listen to the teachings of the Tao, and let the resentment in your heart dissipate like clouds and mist."
“The way of nature follows nature. Only when your mind is as still as water can you see the road ahead clearly.”
Wei Ranzhu hesitated after hearing this.
He lowered his head and thought for a moment.
Finally, he nodded slightly, then clasped his hands together and said:
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for taking me in. Ranzhu is very grateful!"
Seeing this, Xu Wan stepped forward and gently patted Wei Ranzhu on the shoulder:
"Brother Lingzhu, you have to be happy! Take good care of your injuries and practice well!"
"This way... we can fight side by side and rescue Liu Xiaohan."
She paused, raised her head and looked at the sky. The floating clouds made her feel a lot of emotion.
"I can understand the pain of being separated from the one you love!"
"Whenever it's late at night and everyone is asleep, I always think of the days when I practiced with my master in the Azure Sky Palace!"
"That kind of unforgettable longing makes me unable to sleep."
"But because of this, we must be stronger and become stronger so that we can reunite soon."
A breeze blew by, and the bamboo leaves rustled, as if responding to Xu Wan's words.
The figures of the three people stretched out in the sunset, intertwined with each other, like a bond that was already destined by fate.
Bai Yuan looked at the setting sun in the distance and thought to himself:
The way of Taoism is boundless and friendship is priceless. May this ray of warm light illuminate their way forward.
