Ding Huan really couldn't move. Suppressing the demon had exhausted all his strength. He looked at Gu Chang and suddenly said, "Wait a minute, my friend."
Liu Yuan exclaimed, turned around and asked, "Senior, is there anything else?"
Ding Huan let out a long breath, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "My friend, you said that you are a casual cultivator, right?"
Liu Yuan nodded: "No sect or school."
Ding Huan looked at Liu Yuan and whispered, "I originally had no choice but to pass on my inheritance to Chang'er, but he is still young after all. If there is no one to guide him, there is a high probability that he will go astray..."
Liu Yuan felt a little annoyed after hearing this. What the hell... Could it be that Gu Feidao has possessed you again?
"So?" Liu Yuan asked cautiously.
Ding Huan paused, and said seriously: "Although I have been away from the world for hundreds of years, I am confident that my ability to judge people has not declined. My friend's character is not bad, and he is also a relative of Chang'er. What's more rare is that he has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age without any sect or school. It can be seen that he has outstanding talent."
Liu Yuan's eyes twitched: "Then?"
Ding Huan said solemnly: "I can teach you everything I know, but I hope you can accept Chang'er as your disciple and pass on the knowledge to him."
Liu Yuan opened his eyes: "No, this..."
Ding Huan said, "I understand that this may be difficult for you, but the orthodox inheritance of Yuxu Daoism is not unfair to you. I will disappear from the world in a few days, and the master-disciple relationship is just an empty title. If you don't want to, I won't force you."
Liu Yuan shook his head: "I took advantage of you, but you were so careless... um, I mean..."
Ding Huan smiled and said, "I know what you mean. I have concerns in my heart, but I am going to die soon. I have no other choice... Seven days at most is my deadline. This is the only solution I have. If you don't believe me, please swear an oath with me, and heaven and earth will be your witnesses."
Liu Yuan felt something was strange.
But he knew that what Ding Huan said was true. If not, he would not have passed on what he had learned to a child like Gu Chang.
Gu Chang was even more confused. Suddenly he had an uncle, and suddenly his uncle seemed to become his master.
However, Liu Yuan's arrow that was as bright as a tree of fire and silver flowers just now also left a very deep impression on him. Most children are visual animals. Although Ding Huan had taught him before, it was obvious that Liu Yuan was more powerful.
Uncle becoming master... doesn't seem to be a problem?
Liu Yuan was very hesitant, as he actually already had a skill tree, but he was a player... and players were not greedy for too much, so as long as they could put in the skill points, they would be willing to come up with several skill trees.
The key point is that they can be replaced independently without mixing with each other.
Liu Yuan has a deep understanding of this point. He himself has both melee and ranged professional skills, while some people even have skills compatible with different sects.
As long as you practice both, except that the tasks will be a bit tiring, it's almost the same as taking a secondary degree in college.
This is a necessary ability if you want to go undercover in other sects.
Liu Yuan suspected that the fact that he had no sect or school was the main reason why Ding Huan was willing to hand over his inheritance.
Because there is no sect or school, it also means that there is no system in one's cultivation, and it is likely to be changed.
There's no harm anyway, just a little bit...
However, if Gu Chang follows Liu Yuan, the risk factor will actually increase instead of decrease. Those characters who have a favorable impression of him may be looking for "Jun Xuan" all over the world, and no one knows what consequences will be caused.
Liu Yuan was struggling over and over again, and after thinking it over again, he suddenly remembered that he still had a paper wife in the Yuxu Taoist sect.
And it is a very rare trait of tolerance.
Be virtuous, generous and not jealous.
-
"From today on, I will be your master."
"..."
Little Gu looked at Liu Yuan's serious expression and felt that something was not right. Why did his uncle suddenly change his attitude and become so active in launching the robbery?
Chapter 40 is full of hints
Liu Yuan took Gu Chang down the mountain. When they reached outside his yard, he let Gu Chang go in by himself and told him not to reveal his identity.
Although Gu Chang was young, he was also a precocious type. He said "oh" and walked in by himself: "Mom, I'm back."
Wan Niang's gentle voice came from the yard: "Chang'er, you're back. Drink some water first."
Liu Yuan was secretly shocked. Compared with his previous brutality, the difference was really huge. But when he thought about the fact that he could let Wan Niang temporarily put aside her revenge and raise him, Gu Chang should be more important than anything else in her heart.
The skills of Yuxu Taoism have already been memorized in his mind.
Those words shining with golden light are like being engraved in the mind and will never fade. One can meditate and practice at any time.
However, if I want to learn some special skills and break through the bottlenecks in my martial arts, I still have to go to Ding Huan to learn.
After all, this is not only Yuxu's orthodoxy, but also what Ding Huan has learned in his life. Those experiences are the most valuable things.
It took Liu Yuan almost half a day to go back and forth.
Fortunately, thanks to his current Nascent Soul attributes, he has many more skills to use in terms of mobility, such as flash, sword flying, and walking in the air.
He is a Dou Zong level warrior! (No)
It can move long distances, otherwise it will take longer.
When he returned to Chiyu Villa, Ning Xiangrong was there too. She had just finished contacting Shuiyuewu these days. There was chaos over there. After the death of Yue Longzhang, some people in Shuiyuewu could not help but stir up trouble.
The first was Yue Longzhang's father, Yue Zong. His promising son died suddenly, so he was naturally angry to the point of going crazy.
But then he received news that his son was an undercover agent of the evil cult. Besides being angry, he was most worried about his position as an elder.
And things did develop in this way. Some people who had a grudge against Yue Zong began to spread the matter widely, and Ma Shu began to add fuel to the flames. His connections and relationships at the bottom of Shuiyuewu quickly confirmed that Yue Longzhang was an undercover agent.
Although Yue Zong didn't believe it at all, the news was delivered by Ning Xiangrong.
Everyone knew what kind of person Miss Ning was. There was no reason for her to spread false information, so things quickly turned into an internal fight.
Strangely enough, even though his son was dead, Yue Zong didn't think much about revenge. Instead, he quickly threw himself into the struggle to defend his position.
It was not until a few days later that they found time in their busy schedule to ask who had killed Yue Longzhang.
"..."
Liu Yuan was speechless for a moment.
It turns out that what humans like most is infighting, and they are addicted to it.
Ning Xiangrong looked helpless at Liu Yuan's expression. She was also very confused and contemptuous of the phenomenon in Shuiyuewu. She sighed and said, "Compared with those big sects in Zhongzhou, Shuiyuewu is just a small pond. Whether it is the elders or disciples, their talents are limited. The way to longevity is hard to find. After a long time, it is inevitable that they will lose sight of the main goal and focus on competing for fame and fortune."
Liu Yuan nodded, very pleased: "Rongrong is far-sighted, not trapped by fame and fortune, and has a free and easy mind. She will have great potential on the road of cultivating immortals."
No matter what your wife says, just praise her.
Do you plan to analyze it rationally instead of praising it?
"Slippery tongue." Ning Xiangrong spat at him, but from the curled corners of her mouth, she was obviously very happy, and her beautiful eyes were full of affection: "What's the point of not being trapped by fame and fortune? Aren't you still trapped by love?"
Liu Yuan's heart was numb with the coquettish and complaining tone. He clasped his fists in his heart and thought, when it comes to love words, you win.
Liu Yuan looked touched. Ning Xiangrong blushed, then she held his hand and smiled, "If they ask, I'll tell them that this is the person I've been looking for, the husband I've chosen."
"!!!"
Liu Yuan's expression was horrifying.
Ning Xiangrong comforted him, "I will protect you. It's okay. I've already told my father that I will not marry anyone but you. Otherwise, I will just go to Yuxu and become a nun."
She said it resolutely, but Liu Yuan twitched his mouth.
No, no, no... Don't go to Yuxu Taoist Sect. There is a woman there who is very virtuous, generous and not jealous. She might be looking for me.
No, it's obviously fine, why is he so guilty?
Liu Yuan coughed twice and said in a teasing tone, "Don't joke around... If you go to be a nun, I will have to climb over the wall of Yuxu and make you break the rules."
Not to mention, this is exactly what he did when he conquered the man named Yourong Naida.
Ning Xiangrong's face flushed and even her neck turned pink. She stretched out her hand and pinched him: "You just talk nonsense."
"You're talking nonsense, and I'm talking nonsense too, so we're even." Liu Yuan smiled, then hesitantly asked, "What does your father say?"
Ning Xiangrong hummed softly, "What else can I say? He has always loved me, so he naturally obeyed me. He just asked me to take you back to let him see you."
Liu Yuan nodded calmly: "Just take a look, I guarantee he will be satisfied and marry his daughter to me."
As soon as she finished, she regretted it. He wasn't an exclusive agent now, and there was Gu Siyin here. How could she marry him with confidence?
Ning Xiangrong saw his calm smile frozen on his face, and immediately raised her hand to poke his chest, saying knowingly: "I knew you were still thinking about that little girl."
Liu Yuan flatly denied it: "I am not..." The word "that kind of person" had not even come out of his mouth.
"I don't really care." Ning Xiangrong's smile was still faint, but her eyes were full of burning love. "I've been looking for you for three years, and the longing in my heart almost burned me dry. At that time, I was so worried that you didn't want me anymore. What would I do if I disappeared from now on... But now I've found you, and that's enough."
She leaned on Liu Yuan's chest, listened to his real heartbeat, closed her eyes and said, "I was just trying to scare you before. You care about that little girl so much. How could I bear to let you make the choice and be sad?"
"As for my father and Yue Zong, don't worry. I said, this time I will be the one to save you. They won't be able to hurt you in the slightest."
The woman spoke firmly and pursed her lips, but there was a glimmer of tears in her eyes, and the slight sourness in her heart was just hidden.
After all, she is the one she loves. How can she not be sad when there is someone else in her heart? But for the light in her heart when she was ignorant, she can change herself and look less sad.
Liu Yuan was moved and reached out to touch her back. He hesitated for a moment whether to tell her that he had already reached the Nascent Soul stage and she didn't need to worry about his safety.
But after not seeing him for a few days, he suddenly advanced from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Nascent Soul stage. This cannot be explained by common sense, so let’s not talk about it for now.
After hugging quietly for a while, Ning Xiangrong let him go and said calmly as if nothing had happened: "I will take you back to Shuiyuewu tomorrow morning and stay next door to you tonight."
Before leaving, Liu Yuan felt that her eyes were full of hints.
Chapter 41 Liu Yuan Under the Table
That night, Liu Yuan finished his practice in his room and breathed a sigh of relief.
The authentic scroll of the Yuxu Taoist sect, "Shangqing Tianyan Xinding Baolu", is indeed the premier Taoist canon. It is really difficult to understand. Fortunately, after traveling through time, it seems that even this embarrassing situation of not being able to understand it has been avoided. I can understand the meaning just by visualizing it.
If it weren't for the attribute value of comprehension, Liu Yuan felt that he would definitely be off the charts now.
"Ah, when can I find a weapon that suits me? I will be invincible in the Novice Village."
Liu Yuan stood up, stretched his body and sighed, looking at the fine iron sword next to him, and thought about the Flying Star Sword in the storage bag that was almost scrapped.
That’s right, the Flying Star Sword is almost scrapped.
Unfortunately, Liu Yuan's skill at that time was "Your mother's spiral explosion with fireworks", commonly known as [Northward Wolf], which is specially used for heavy crossbows, special effects attack on the city, and also greatly consumes the durability of the weapon.
The entire sword body was not twisted due to the excessive force it was bearing, but it still had dense and tiny cracks on it.
Although it is still usable, it is still a question of how many times it can be used.
This sword has completely become a consumable.
Liu Yuan thought about giving it another try next time and making the best use of the sword.
He walked to the table and poured a cup of tea. He sensed it roughly and found that Ning Xiangrong was really waiting next door, neither practicing nor sleeping.
Probably waiting for him to come over.
Liu Yuan took a sip of tea.
He took another sip of tea.
Then I found that no matter how much I drank, my lips and throat were still dry.
He wasn't thirsty at all, he was nervous.
"Are you kidding me? How can I, the God of Strategy, be nervous?"
Liu Yuan slammed the cup on the table with a stern expression, "No, Ning Xiangrong originally thought that I was a wanton playboy. Now that she has taken the initiative, I have retreated. This doesn't make sense."
He stood up and was about to go out, but his hands were on the bolt and he stopped.
Liu Yuan took two steps back and muttered, "But if I go and hesitate, wouldn't that ruin my image? I've been single for 19 years and have no practical experience. I hope something unexpected happens..."
Liu Yuan was in a dilemma. After thinking for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth.
The door opened with a creak.
Go next door and open it.
Ning Xiangrong was sitting on a stool next to the table inside the room. When she saw Liu Yuan opening the door with a little breath (caused by the intense psychological activity and jumping back and forth), she subconsciously lowered her head, a faint blush suddenly appeared on her face, and her eyes, which were pretending to be calm, became a little evasive.
But she still clenched her fists, stood up and walked towards Liu Yuan, saying softly: "A Yuan..."
Liu Yuan stared at her blankly, closed the door with his hands behind his back and bolted it.
