Book 11: Chapter 15 (1)
Bai Lian found Zhou Rui under a pine tree near the cliff.
Under the blue sky and white clouds.
Zhuo Rui, dressed in a blue and white dress, stood dejectedly on the bluestone.
The chilly mountain wind blew her dress wildly.
The arms and legs that were exposed occasionally look pale and ashen, as if they had been filtered through the underworld.
It's obvious to anyone who isn't blind that something is wrong with Zhou Rui.
Bai Lian thought that if she had come a little later, Zhou Rui would have jumped down right away.
Actually, it's not a big problem.
With Zhou Rui's cultivation base, even if she falls head first to the ground, she can't get hurt; probably only the earth gets damaged.
(Translated by Gravity Tales ?)But…
Bai Lian never really cared about Zhou Rui's physique - she only cares about the physical development of her master and Martial Sisters.
She is now focused on Zhou Rui's mental health issues.
Just as she has always emphasized, cultivation is cultivating the mind.
Before going through the Yin Fire Disaster, intense emotional shocks can easily lead cultivators astray.
The more emotional a person is, the easier they are to be captured by internal demons.
Zhou Rui is such a person.
Moreover, she had just broken through to the Golden Core Stage, and her cultivation base and mentality were already unstable.
When her ambition was fulfilled, she was suddenly defeated by the fourth Martial Sister with lightning speed. Bai Lian was worried that Zhou Rui would fall into a trance and become the incubator for the birth of an internal demon.
Zhou Rui's age is not big, but she is at least a Golden Core Stage cultivator, able to create her own sect in the outside world.
When she was swept off the stage by the fourth Martial Sister, she ran away crying like a heartbroken girl, not even wanting her sword.
"Do you believe it if there is no problem?"
Bai Lian doesn't believe.
So she came.
If Zhou Rui were to really give birth to an internal demon, even if no one blames the Fourth Martial Sister, she would still feel guilty about it.
She has grown a lot in these few years.
At first, her ambition was small and all she wanted was to be pleased with herself.
Later, her chest gradually grew large enough to embrace her master.
Up to now, the entire Duxian sect can already be rolled up.
Bai Lian is no longer a traveler to the other world.
She lost her roots.
But she found a new root.
The Duxian sect is her new home.
She will not hesitate to strengthen the Duxian sect's hard power!
She couldn't bear to watch such a promising seedling fall into ruin.
"Martial Sister, I'm fine. You go first and I'll wait here for a little while."
At this time.
Suddenly Zhou Rui spoke, and gently brushed a strand of hair at the temple.
She probably just wanted to show that she was relaxed.
It's a pity that the mountain wind doesn't cooperate.
A drop of water stuck to her eye and flew onto Bai Lian's cheek.
"…"
Salty.
In terms of Bai Lian's physical sensitivity and affinity for water.
Even without sticking out her tongue to taste it, she knows what kind of water this is and what it tastes like.
"Elder… Martial Sister Zhou."
It's better to call her Elder Martial Sister.
Bai Lian thought.
Zhou Rui is bigger in every area than her else except for her chest.
Zhou Rui noticed something wrong.
The sound…
She turned sharply.
At the moment of their eyes meeting, she seemed to have been mesmerized by Bai Lian and completely froze up.
"Elder Martial Sister… Bai Lian?"
Buzz.
The next moment.
As if Bai Lian had let go of her hand, she regained her freedom and said hurriedly:
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, what are you doing here? Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I got your face dirty."
She said and stepped forward to wipe away the tears on Bai Lian's cheeks.
Just as her hand was about to touch Bai Lian's cheek, she stopped.
Stop it, asshole!
What is your identity?
And what's the identity of Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian?
You actually dared to reach out and touch Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, were you not satisfied with how dirty you made Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian?
But…
After all, it was she who dirtied Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian; if she didn't take responsibility to clean it up properly, how would that reflect on her?
Zhou Rui was in a dilemma.
In her confusion, she completely forgot that she had been "betrayed" by her own sword.
Bai Lian gently wiped away the tear stains.
She didn't plan to put in effort for such small matters.
She wasn't planning to linger outside with Zhou Rui.
Therefore, she cut straight to the point, "Elder Martial Sister Zhou, you can just call me Bai Lian. I came here to return this sword to you."
Bai Lian took out the long sword hidden by her floating skirt.
"…"
Zhou Rui unconsciously grasped the sword hilt.
At first, she just felt as cold and bright as ice.
But after recognizing the sword, she felt like she was holding a burning stick.
Hot!
No.
She doesn't want it.
Zhou Rui nervously loosened the sword handle.
She backed away.
The mountain rocks on the edge of the cliff were not wide, she only took two steps back before she was about to step into thin air.
"Elder Martial Sister Zhou!"
Bai Lian immediately stepped forward and reached out to grasp Zhou Rui's shoulder.
Looking at the sword that was just within reach, even though she was facing Bai Lian, Zhou Rui still felt a sense of resistance in her heart.
She desperately turned her head to the side.
Get away, get away!
!!!?(????)?
…
Bai Lian doesn't have much hope of directly persuading Zhou Rui.
It looks like it's hard to appease her without paying something!
Bai Lian sighed softly.
She is actually quite "stingy".
After all, she alone had to take care of six "children" including her master, and the Qiongming Peak would have gone bankrupt earlier if she was too generous.
So what should I give?
While thinking, Bai Lian said to Zhou Rui, "Elder Martial Sister Zhou, besides returning the sword, I also want to apologize to you.
Apologize?
Excuse me?
Shouldn't I be the one apologizing?
Zhou Rui was stunned.
When Bai Lian saw her not speaking, she continued explaining.
"Actually, my fourth Martial Sister has already broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage recently; she didn't mean to humiliate you…"
"The Nascent Soul Stage!"
Zhou Rui screamed, she was stunned by Bai Lian's words.
As Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's standing and power, there is no need to lie to her of course.
Then the problem comes.
Zhou Rui faintly remembered that when Yu Ying joined the Duxian sect, it caused quite a discussion.
Because Yu Ying had the public identity of being the daughter of Marquis Wu'an and Heluo Country was a much stronger force than the Duxian sect.
That was a year ago.
At that time, Yu Ying only had a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation base.
But now.
?The Nascent Soul Stage!?
What the hell.
Zhou Rui was scared.
