Chapter 381: My Years as a Bodyguard in the Immortal Cultivation World
"It's all the teacher's fault..."
Two days later, Lu Ciyan suddenly understood the meaning of what Lu Shi had said.
It turned out that Lu Shi suddenly ran to the Cliff of Repentance, where he would reflect for ten days.
No one else knew about this. Lu Shi only told Xu Chenjue, and Xu Chenjue accidentally revealed it to Lu Ciyan.
What is the Cliff of Repentance? New disciple Xu Chenjue has no idea, he only knows that his master has gone there.
But Lu Ciyan, who had been in the sect for ten years, knew it. Not only did he know it, he had also stayed there for three days.
As the name suggests, the Cliff of Repentance is a place where disciples who have made mistakes are imprisoned. An illusion is set up there, which reproduces the mistakes made by the disciples, just like a test. Only when the disciples pass the test correctly in the illusion can their reflection be considered complete.
The disciples in the Cliff of Repentance will have their spiritual power sealed and will not be able to practice fasting, so this is a great test for the disciples' body and mind.
When Lu Ciyan heard the news, his head was spinning. He didn't know how he came to the Cliff of Repentance, but the layers of restrictions set up outside prevented him from even seeing his master.
But Lu Shi in the Cliff of Repentance could see him.
The people outside the restriction seemed to have lost their souls, with unfocused eyes. They were wobbling as they flew on their swords, as if they were about to fall off the swords.
Lu Shi raised his eyebrows slightly, not surprised at all by this scene.
Lu Ciyan thought that Lu Shi was experiencing the pain of an illusion, but in fact, Lu Shi just changed the environment and continued to live a carefree life.
The environment inside the Cliff of Repentance has no effect on people above a certain level, such as Lu Shi, and almost no disciples in the sect know this. After all, the elders in the sect would not be so bored as to spread this information.
This is also the reason why Lu Shi did not make a big fuss about it, but quietly let only two disciples know about it.
Xu Chenjue doesn't like going out and won't tell anyone about it, and it's even more impossible for Lu Ciyan to tell outsiders.
Lu Shi’s purpose in doing this was very simple.
She just wanted to provoke Lu Ciyan.
Since Lu Ciyan behaved abnormally yesterday, she suddenly noticed something was wrong.
She had already guessed that the other party in this world would follow, so she made a judgment.
After some probing, he finally confirmed that the person had really followed him, and it was Lu Ciyan, whom he had kept by his side for ten years.
She suddenly had a feeling that it was as she expected.
Generally speaking, if she meets someone in the small world that she finds difficult to deal with, it is most likely him.
This conclusion still holds true.
She didn't know why the other party had been chasing her in so many worlds, and every world was dedicated to getting involved with her, but it didn't prevent Lu Shi from secretly guessing that the other party had some plans for her.
It is very likely that the other party is using you to get through your emotional crisis.
It's really unpleasant to have someone secretly thinking about you.
Lu Shi naturally had to fight back.
She wanted to see if the other party would still dare to follow her after this world was over!
……
Ten days later, Lu Shi came out of the Cliff of Repentance. He looked much thinner, with his lips slightly pale and cracked due to lack of water.
All of this was seen by Lu Ciyan who was waiting outside the cliff. He approached quickly, but even though he was very close, he hesitated and did not reach out his hand.
"Master..."
"Well, let's go back." Lu Shi's eyes were very indifferent, and there was almost no trace of Lu Ciyan in them. The indifference made him feel uneasy.
He forced a smile and said, "I made some food. I'll take Master back to eat something."
People who have been hungry for a long time cannot go on a fast directly. They must fill their stomachs first.
Lu Ciyan had already prepared a table of food, waiting for his master to come back and eat together.
However, Lu Shi had already asked Xu Chenjue to cook some food.
"Then let's go together." Lu Shi said.
Lu Shi conjured up a large table and placed all the dishes made by the two of them on the table, with each of them taking half.
Lu Ciyan sat down silently around Lu Shi, and Xu Chenjue also sat on the other side of Lu Shi.
Xu Chenjue didn't know what was happening between the two people beside him. He didn't feel anything was wrong and started to invite Lu Shi to try the food he cooked.
"Master, please try my cooking." He seemed very confident in his cooking skills, radiating confidence from the inside out.
Lu Shi couldn't help but feel curious and picked up one of the dishes to taste.
This attempt seemed like discovering a new world.
It’s simple, it’s just so delicious.
Lu Shi nodded coldly in appreciation, but he unconsciously quickened his eating pace with his chopsticks.
Half of the dishes on the table disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, while the other half was only eaten by a few chopsticks of Xu Chenjue.
Lu Ciyan looked at the food he had cooked on the table, which had hardly been touched, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
The master always finished all the dishes he cooked in the past, so why was it different this time?
He seemed to know the reason, but he never dared to admit it.
Master, did she do this on purpose?
Because you deliberately distanced yourself from me after that incident, right?
He silently watched Lu Shi eating quietly. The dim light in his eyes overshadowed the original hope and turned into gloomy paranoia.
There was a faint smile on Lu Shi's lips, which disappeared in a flash.
In the next few days, Lu Shi avoided Lu Ciyan intentionally or unintentionally. Even if she really couldn't avoid him, she would find a reason to call Xu Chenjue and put him between the two of them.
Lu Ciyan realized what his master meant and gradually calmed down.
But giving up is obviously not his style.
On this day, the young disciples in the sect delivered things to the new disciples, and Lu Ciyan tricked Xu Chenjue into following them down the mountain. He came to Lu Shi's cave alone.
"Master."
The restriction at the door had been removed long ago, and Lu Ciyan walked in without permission.
There was a pungent smell in the air, which could be smelled before I got close - it was the smell of burning books.
He quickened his pace and saw a storybook burning fiercely on top of the fire.
At that time, he deliberately put it first, the one that his master could get as long as he stretched out his hand. It was about... the love between a teacher and a disciple.
He deliberately erased his name from the storybook, hoping to test his master's reaction when she read it.
But now there was no need for that, the gray smoke from the burning book clearly showed her attitude.
Master, she doesn’t accept it.
"Master, why?" His eyes were red, like a cub trapped in a swamp, hesitantly complaining about the indifference during the landing.
"It's extremely treasonous and absurd." Lu Shi's voice was unusually cold.
These eight short words made Lu Ciyan's heart sink to the bottom.
But soon after, he suddenly laughed.
"Master, what if I insist on asking?"
"That's impossible."
"Okay." Lu Ciyan walked out of the cave as if he had accepted his fate.
His hunched back made him look much older.
Outside the cave, Lu Ciyan stared gloomily at the rising restriction, with a red light leaking from his eyes.
The evil voice in my mind took the opportunity to sound again.
"Trust me, I will give you strength and you will get everything you want."
"Everything, including your Master."
"Relax, relax, put your body..."
"give it to me!"
The emotions in Lu Ciyan's eyes flickered, sweeping everything away like a storm, and then quickly calmed down, returning to his previous calm.
"Old ghost, you'd better give up this idea."
