Mountain dwelling practice: I am a gentle guest in the world

Chapter 932

Perhaps the two of them had a deep past relationship, as one could hear their concern for each other from their casual conversation.

The posture of the Immortal Venerable in practicing martial arts has never changed. The only change is the cold expression on his face, which is like the melting of ice in early spring. His eyes staring at her are as clear as a blue lake, and his gentle gaze is like the gurgling stream in the mountain stream, flowing slowly.

It flowed into the heart of the person in his eyes, as if he could clearly hear the deepest call from the bottom of his heart.

Frightened by his fiery gaze, Sang Yue quietly moved away, not daring to look him in the eye again. Sang Yue looked away, trying to stay awake, and sticking to her principle of not getting into emotional trouble:

"A look like that would get you struck by lightning in the fairy tale drama back home."

It was too late to dissuade them now, as neither she nor he could restrain their emotions. They probably didn't want to restrain themselves, especially when they were alone, and couldn't help wanting to let the other know their attitude.

Not only him, but she too, otherwise how would they dare to come in the middle of the night?

"Fiction and reality are different after all. Don't let your past life's cognition affect your present life. As far as I know, the God Realm advocates the practice of ruthlessness. We are in the lower fairyland." He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had returned to his indifference.
"The Immortal Emperor has a partner, so if we want to kill him, we should kill him first."

If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked too. My status is just below the Immortal Emperor, so I am not responsible.

This is true, but she still wants to make one last effort:
"We have no right to control what others do, I..."

"Escape will only make regrets continue and the pain will be hard to stop." The Immortal Venerable interrupted her self-persuasion and said calmly, "It is not shameful to face desires. We, the sentient beings in the lower realm, are already floating in the five desires and six dusts. If you want to be pure, you must not cling to anything and not lose anything.

You have a chaotic mind, and your nature is more obsessed with gains and losses than ordinary immortals. Instead of forcing yourself to follow the so-called good nature of human beings, why not follow the way of heaven and follow your heart for once?"

She formed a partnership with him and absorbed his cultivation to help her improve her skills quickly.

With his current skill, he didn't dare to help her remove the divine curse easily, not to mention that she still had a magic curse. With her current tortoise-like training method, she couldn't break even one of them even if she died.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll hold you back?" Sang Yue couldn't help but ask what she cared about the most. "There are many fairies in Qingyu with high attainments..."

If you don't like fairies, there are more male fairies with high Taoism.

"I always act according to my heart," the Immortal Venerable said calmly, without any trace of tenderness and affection on his face. "Since we were destined to be together in the previous life, it is only right that I find you to solve this problem."

His change of attitude was as easy as turning the pages of a book. Sang Yue felt a little safe immediately.

To be honest, she didn't like having too strong emotional fluctuations, as that would make her feel completely different and her words and actions would become incredibly strange.

She declined the emotion of making a person lose himself.

So the deep affection on the face of the Immortal Venerable just now made her wary, fearing that she could not respond to the same degree and that the two of them would eventually become a pair of resentful lovers. It was better not to have such an affection that could be seen through at a glance, as it would only cause sadness, but he could restrain himself.

Only when you can't help yourself show your affection; being able to control yourself is quite average.

Although Sang Yue had never experienced love affairs, she had seen a lot of them and believed that she had some experience. Carrying the two curses of gods and demons, if she had no external help, it would be very difficult for her to survive, not to mention solving the problem.

She hesitated before because she was worried that he was too deeply in love with her to control himself and protect her from disaster.

"I am grateful that Your Excellency has not abandoned me," Sang Yue knelt before him and spoke earnestly, "I am a humble immortal with no talent and a long life ahead. I hope Your Excellency will tolerate me."

She bowed her head to the ground, so she didn't see the excitement and joy flashing in the eyes of the person she was kneeling to.

He had originally stretched out his hand to stop her from kneeling, but stopped halfway, and then returned her half-salutation with the gesture of an equal. He was a high-level Taoist, and could bear the kneeling of lower-level beings, but lower-level beings could not bear his full courtesy, and she was one of them.

After the two of them finished the ceremony of forming a couple, they could endure the spiritual practice for a while. When Sang Yue finished the ceremony and raised her eyes, the Immortal Venerable in front of her still looked indifferent and cold. He calmly accepted her greeting and then said slowly:

"Tomorrow I will go to Xiaojing to report this matter to Emperor Yun and choose a day to perform the ceremony."

This process would take quite some time, because Emperor Yun might first adopt her as his adopted daughter, which would require a recognition ceremony to be held.

"Adopted daughter?" Sang Yue asked incredulously, "Is Emperor Yun's habit of adopting children so serious?"

"He and Immortal Master Yilan are immortals from the lower world, they are kindhearted and adopted children out of kindness..." As the children they first adopted grew up and were able to help him and his wife with many trivial matters, they became obsessed with it.
"After I had my own child, I found that it was easier to give birth than to educate him, so I stopped. I recognize you now for no other reason than because Emperor Yun told me a fortune when he went to the Snow Region to invite me out of the mountains..."

He was the lord of the Snow Region. When he left the Snow Region and saw the beautiful scenery elsewhere, he took the initiative to include it in the Snow Region.

Anyone who disagrees can go and challenge me. The loser will become a snowy undead without regrets.

As many people died, all living beings dared not provoke him anymore, but went to Xiaojing to report to the Immortal Emperor. The Immortal Emperor went to tell him personally that he would become his son-in-law in the future, and asked him to follow him out of the mountains and become the supreme being who protected the immortal domain.

When Sang Yue heard this, she was even more surprised:
"You agreed to the marriage proposal?"

Are you so easy to deceive? In the mortal world, it is at least a marriage contract, because words are not enough.

"Why not?" The Immortal Venerable said nonchalantly, "I have never considered forming a relationship with anyone before, and I don't need any help in my cultivation..."

It is even more ridiculous to be emotionally attached, as he has never had any awareness of this from the beginning.

Sang Yue lowered her eyebrows and eyes: "..." Really? Why doesn't it look like that?

"I didn't believe it at the time, so I read my fortune for myself," and then I found out that Emperor Yun was right. The fortune showed that he was definitely the other party's son-in-law. "I was curious, so I followed him out."

He was very curious about who the other person was who made him agree to be their partner.

"..." Sang Yue sincerely closed her eyes when she heard this. The chill in her heart surged up and down. She said calmly, "So, Your Majesty, the person you are waiting to kill is not her, right?"

"Yes." The Immortal Lord admitted.

The hexagram shows that he is willing. How can such a person exist? If there is, he must be eliminated. Based on this mentality, anyone who actively seeks to form a partnership with him must first pass the test of strength.

In his eyes, the person who can form a partner with him must be of equal strength.

But the females who came to court him could not even survive a single whip from his men, which made him feel quite bored. As for the male immortals who came to provoke him, he simply killed them because he was disgusted by their arrogance when they provoked him.

For this reason, despite his great military achievements, the immortals in Xiaojing still often caused trouble for Emperor Yun and demanded that he be expelled from Qingyu.

All of them were rejected by Emperor Yun, who said that it was only because those people disturbed his peace and that they had brought this upon themselves. Besides, the Immortal Venerable did not beat those people to death, and the fact that they still had a chance to be reborn was already a mercy from him.

Because of Emperor Yun's protection, no one can shake the Immortal Lord's position in Xiaojing.

“Then you’re still going to kill me?” Sang Yue opened her eyes in despair. It was a triple curse. She must have committed a great sin in her previous life.

"If I want to kill you, can you escape?" said the Immortal with his eyes closed.

All explanations are in vain. Only by letting her see the reality clearly can she be firm in her determination and keep her promise without regrets.
