Everyone thought that Master Xuanjing would be angry after being humiliated twice in a row, but the opposite was true. Master Xuanjing was not only not angry, but also a little happy.
"You seem to have a good relationship with your master," said Master Xuanjing, leisurely taking down the wine gourd hanging from his waist.
"It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that their relationship is like that of father and son." Qin Moyu smiled, his eyes gentle.
"I understand." Xuanjing Zhenren took a sip of wine, his eyes sweeping over the cultivators present. Those who had talked too much fell to the ground with screams. He turned around and gestured for Qin Moyu to come over.
Qin Moyu was puzzled, but she still went up to him.
If Qin Moyu could still put up a fight against Shen Yebai using the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, then with Xuanjing Zhenren's strength, let alone fighting, it would be a miracle if Qin Moyu could even last ten minutes.
With absolute strength, Qin Moyu had no choice, regardless of whether the opponent was good or bad.
Master Xuanjing didn't say anything, but simply gave Qin Moyu a jade pendant.
A jade pendant with crooked and twisted carvings that is unbearable to look at.
Qin Moyu took the jade pendant in surprise, then suddenly remembered the jade pendant his master had given him.
He took out his jade pendant, and his eyes lit up. The two jade pendants were clearly made by the same person.
"senior--"
Master Xuanjing's lips curled slightly.
"Do you know my master?!"
This was somewhat different from what Master Xuanjing had imagined. He hesitated for a moment before replying, "...More or less. No, why are you so surprised?"
"because……"
Qin Moyu blinked and said matter-of-factly, "Master is both fierce and poor, he doesn't seem like the type to know a senior."
—Teacher, Father, Again, Fierce, Again, Poor.
The wine gourd in Master Xuanjing's hand shattered with a snap.
Chapter 18. The Road to Heaven: Wuhu, I Want to Take Off—…
Master Xuanjing gave a forced smile and said through gritted teeth, "Sorry, my hand slipped."
Qin Moyu silently took a step back. He took back his previous statement. Xuanjing Zhenren definitely harbored great malice towards him!
Qin Moyu: Afraid.jig
Master Xuanjing was so angry that he wanted to hit Qin Moyu with his wine gourd, but then he thought that since he had given such an obvious hint and the brat still hadn't recognized it, he might as well not tell him. He wanted to see what Qin Moyu would say about him behind his back.
"Fine, since you have no intention of becoming my disciple, I can make an exception for the sake of our past acquaintance, but there is one condition."
Qin Moyu's eyes lit up: "What are the conditions?"
Master Xuanjing pointed at Shen Yebai and said, "He can enter the Guanlan Sect, but he cannot leave his own residence."
As the host, Guanlan Sect was wealthy and had specially prepared accommodations for them.
Although his movements were restricted, Qin Moyu was already very happy that Shen Yebai could enter the Guanlan Sect, and nodded repeatedly.
Shen Yebai lowered his eyelids, concealing the emotions in his eyes, as if he had not yet recovered from his injury.
Now that the terms had been agreed upon, Master Xuanjing didn't want to be made a fool of here. He glanced at Gu Jia and Li Zhishan and said slowly, "We've been delayed for so long, Xuanqing must be getting anxious. You two hurry up and bring them into the Guanlan Sect. As for what just happened..."
Gu Jia, who was still reveling in the thought that "it's great that my wife didn't become my elder," was startled by these words and looked nervously at Master Xuanjing.
"Xuanqing would probably be very interested."
Xuanqing is the name of Gu Jia's father, and another junior disciple of Xuanjing Zhenren.
"Grandmaster! No! My father will definitely beat me again if he finds out—" Gu Jia said with a bitter face. He was only thinking that he couldn't tell the old man, and he never expected that Master Xuanjing would complain.
Master Xuanjing's lips curled slightly. Regardless of Gu Jia's pleas for mercy, he raised his chin at Qin Moyu and said, "Come with me."
“But…” Qin Moyu’s gaze drifted to Shen Yebai over there.
"No buts!" Master Xuanjing rolled his eyes and picked up Qin Moyu like a chick and carried him away.
Before Qin Moyu was dragged away, she struggled and shouted to Shen Yebai, "Hey, hey? Yebai! See you at Guanlan Sect!"
Before Shen Yebai could respond, Qin Moyu's figure disappeared into the distance like a streak of light.
Shen Yebai looked up and saw only the blinding sunlight. His eyes were heavy, and he seemed to have become a different person after losing Qin Moyu.
He walked through the crowd expressionlessly, showing no signs of the weakness and shortness of breath he had just displayed. People scattered wherever he went, afraid of getting involved with this guy who had "angered" Master Xuanjing.
“Mo Yuan…” Luo Yuan murmured to himself, his eyes filled with unconcealed shock.
Zhong Fei, who had been appeased, looked at him, puzzled, and asked in a low voice, "Who is Mo Yuan?"
Luo Yuan felt Shen Yebai glance at him, so he quickly turned his back and pulled Zhong Fei away. Only when he could no longer see even a corner of Shen Yebai's clothes did he recover from the suffocating fear.
He gently patted Zhong Fei's head and said slowly and earnestly, "Xiao Fei, you don't need to know who he is."
"All you need to know is that when you see him, you should run as fast as you can."

The environment is set up at the foot of the mountain, which is also the most basic defensive formation of Guanlan Sect. The higher you go up the mountain, the more various formations and mechanisms appear. Without someone to guide you, you simply cannot go up. This is why the disciple recruitment ceremony can attract so many people to sign up.
