Chapter 74 - Long time no see
The moment I saw Master, I was stunned and even doubted if I was dreaming. But how could a dream be so good? I was almost driven mad by nightmares. Who knows, Master might appear in time to save me, a god sent by the heavens!
"Master, I missed you so much …" "Ling'er!" I threw myself into his arms.
The old man was hit by me until he almost fell to the ground. He scolded me in a tired voice, "You silly girl, why did you leave without saying a word? I thought something happened to you. "
When I heard that, I felt a little guilty. I chuckled and immediately pulled him in. I said coquettishly, "Aren't I fine? I didn't have the time to tell you and you weren't here either."
"That's true." The old man was stunned for a moment before he nodded helplessly.
I pulled Master over to the sofa and sat down. I poured a cup of water for him and then sat down next to him like a dog, "Master, you've worked hard and even made you come all the way here. It's really my fault.
This old man has been bringing me along since I was four or five years old. Although I don't have any blood ties with him, in reality, his place in my heart is much more important than my biological parents. We are relatives that depend on each other for life.
"Tell me, what have you been doing all this time?" My master ignored my words and told me the truth.
I scratched my head guiltily. For a moment, I didn't know where to start. After all, all of this was too dramatic for me.
"Master …" I can tell you everything, but you must not be angry after hearing it. " I looked at him carefully.
"Mm, go ahead, I won't bother with you." My master glared at me as if he hated me for not being able to meet my expectations, then helplessly nodded.
After Master left, only after Chu Yu found me did we reach an agreement. I helped him find the Jade Soul Fragment, provided him with pure Yin blood to help him recover his memories, and also told him about the matter of the Jiang Family. The Chen family's Chen Ye, and the Barren Village's Corpse Sentinel Li, both of them were attempting to refine me.
But luckily, he could be considered someone who had experienced many things before, so he was still relatively calm. After I finished speaking, he coldly snorted, "Heh, that bastard surnamed Li actually dares to stare at my disciple."
Upon hearing this, I was a little taken aback. "Eh, Master, you know him?"
He nodded his head with a look of disdain, "I've heard others mention this person before, but I didn't expect him to be a sinister villain who does corpse refining."
However, since he didn't say anything, I didn't have the time to ask. Usually, he doesn't treat me strictly, but I know that only when he's angry can I avoid provoking him. Otherwise, the consequences will be dire.
Of course, under normal circumstances, my master is still very amiable, and since I was young, I have always been able to observe his mood. As a result, he almost never got angry with me, and instead got angry when I was bullied.
"Alright, Master, I'm fine now, so you don't have to worry too much." I was afraid that Master would turn around and go take revenge for me, not to mention there being no need for it right now, that guy had already been dealt with miserably by Chu Yu and Chen Ye. Although they heard that the person had luckily escaped before death, but to pay such a huge price, normal people wouldn't dare to find him, so Master getting angry now is also something completely meaningless.
I looked at my master and realized that I hadn't seen him for a long time. He had already lost a lot of white hair, and he seemed to have aged a lot, making me feel even more guilty. I also didn't know when he discovered that I had disappeared, or if he had been looking for me for a long time.
"Oh right, Master, why did you suddenly disappear a while ago? Do you know that Ning'er is worried to death?" I'm also curious about where Master is going, but Master never likes to take the initiative to tell me about him, so every time I can only rely on acting coquettish to get information from him.
When Master saw me like this, he straightforwardly said, "I am the one who went to see an old friend in Zhong Yangshan. Speaking of that old friend, you even met him when you were young, and he was the one who saved your life when your Yin Body and Yin Eye woke up at the same time."
"Huh?" This... I don't remember at all.
When I was young, I did have a near-death experience. Even though it was a distant memory, even though there was some impression, I really couldn't remember who cured me and saved my little life. Thinking about it, I felt a little embarrassed.
Seeing my expression, Master shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't remember. Next month, Mount Zhong will hold a meeting with the Spiritual Assembly. At that time, you will come with me to pay a visit."
"Wow, I heard from someone that Zhong Yangshan is a very powerful sect. It's very rare to see such a powerful sect in the world. That senior must be a very powerful individual." I couldn't help but sigh.
His Master said proudly, "Of course, you'll know when you see him."
I couldn't help but mutter in my heart. This person seems to have a good relationship with Master. Master's attitude towards him … In fact, to me, there was even a hint of admiration. This was quite unbelievable, as my master was, after all, the famous Sect Leader of the Zhang Clan.
However, even if I had doubts in my heart, I didn't dare to mock him. My intuition told me that this person wasn't someone I could complain about, especially when it came to my master's attitude towards him.
"That Chu Yu... what he did to you. " Master suddenly changed the subject.
I was stunned for a moment and more or less caught off guard. "This … "It's fine."
It's over, it's over. Has master noticed something?
That's impossible. When I said that, I didn't mention anything about my relationship with him. I even intentionally described it to him, but Master's reaction wasn't as worried as I thought. Other than surprise, there was only calmness, no anger, and no worry …
Could it be that he had already seen through it?
"You don't have to care about your master's opinion. I just need to be sure that he won't hurt you. As you have grown up, you should make your own decisions regarding everything else. I won't interfere with you too much."
"Is that so?" I looked at my master with an ugly smile.
