Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 191 Blushing
The old man in black robe looked disgusted on the surface, but the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably.

Only when the figure of the old man in black robe disappeared in the air did Shen Fuyu breathe a sigh of relief, turn around, and plan to go back to the room to rest.

Unexpectedly, a black figure stood silently in front of Shen Fuyu, carrying a scabbard behind him.

The temperament is introverted and dangerous.

It’s Shen Yi!
Shen Fuyu's first master.

Shen Yi pursed his lips and did not speak, but just looked at Shen Fuyu quietly.

It seemed as if he was waiting for Shen Fuyu to confess.

Shen Fuyu's scalp suddenly felt numb and his eyes flickered involuntarily.

I always feel like I'm having an affair with a mistress and my wife caught me.

Shen Fuyu scratched the back of his head, looked up at the sky and down at the ground, but didn't dare to look directly into Shen Yi's eyes.

To Shen Fuyu, Shen Yi and the old man in black robe are different.

Shen Yi has a clear distinction between right and wrong and has a strong sense of justice.

The old man in black robe is both good and evil, with his position vague and in the dark area.

"Master."

In the end, Shen Fuyu was defeated and obediently called out "Master".

Shen Yi nodded, entered the room first and sat at the tea table, waiting for Shen Fuyu to explain. Shen Fuyu's mind was working rapidly, and she gritted her teeth, "Master, I met a master by chance. He thinks I have outstanding talent and wants to take me as his disciple."

"Master, I'm sorry. I'll punish you as you wish."

Shen Fuyu stood in front of Shen Yi, lowered his head, and admitted his mistake obediently.

In ancient times, the master-disciple relationship was equivalent to the parent-child relationship.

As the saying goes, once a teacher, always a father. A master is not only responsible for teaching his apprentices skills, but also acts like a father to them.

Even the apprentice's marriage has the right to be interfered with by the master. Some masters attach great importance to rules and decency, and do not allow their apprentices to have a second master. In their view, this is equivalent to betrayal. Of course, as long as the first master agrees, the apprentice can have multiple masters.

However, Shen Fuyu took the black-robed old man as his master without Shen Yi's consent.

Shen Yi would be angry, and Shen Fuyu could understand.

Of course, Shen Fuyu also felt guilty.

As a modern person, Shen Fuyu was not clear about the ancient rules. It was only later that Shen Fuyu learned about the master-disciple relationship.

That's why I chose to hide it from both sides.

It’s not that Shen Fuyu is timid and doesn’t dare to face this matter, but because Shen Fuyu is afraid that Shen Yi will ask to meet with the old man in black robe after knowing it.

The old man in black robe has a changeable temperament. If he knew that he was not Shen Fuyu's only master, he would definitely go crazy. At that time, Shen Fuyu would not be able to guarantee Shen Yi's safety.

Although Shen Yi's cultivation was equally high, in Shen Fuyu's opinion, the old man in black robe was still superior.

Shen Fuyu sighed. He didn't expect that the matter would be exposed so quickly.

Noticing Shen Yi's gaze, Shen Fuyu immediately stood up straight, not daring to think too much.

Looks very honest.

Shen Yi rubbed the teacup with his fingertips, his pupils deep and calm.

He is an extremely emotionally stable person.

Or in other words, many things in the mortal world cannot attract Shen Yi's attention.

It was even more impossible to make Shen Yi's emotions fluctuate.

"and then?"

The three words "light and fluttering" seemed to contain great power, and Shen Fuyu spoke with gritted teeth.

"Master, the situation was special back then."

"My cultivation had reached a bottleneck, so I chose to enter Prison Mountain to break through. There, I met my Second Master." "My Second Master, whose cultivation was unfathomable and whose moods were volatile, suddenly offered to take me in as his disciple. I didn't dare to offend him, let alone upset him."

"I had to agree because of the force value."

"I've always wanted to confess this, but unfortunately, so many things have happened recently that I haven't been able to find the right time, so I've been putting it off."

Shen Fuyu explained the whole story and embellished it a bit.

Shen Yi calmly took a sip of tea and was not angry because Shen Fuyu knew the truth but did not report it.

"Shen Fuyu." Shen Yi tapped his fingers on the table. "Since we are master and disciple, I must be responsible for you."

"This person's skills are not simple, his origins are unknown, and he is not a good person. Shen Fuyu should cut off ties with him as soon as possible to protect himself."

"I don't object to you having other masters. As long as you can learn real skills, I will be happy for you."

"I just hope you can meet a kind person instead of trying to get the skin of a tiger."

Every word makes a lot of sense.

Shen Fuyu lowered her head and smiled bitterly. She knew very well that having an intersection with the old man in black robe and having them as his disciple was like trying to get the skin of a tiger.
But what can Shen Fuyu do?

In Laoshan, the old man in black robe was very emotionally unstable. If Shen Fuyu dared to resist, Shen Fuyu believed that the old man in black robe would torture her severely.

Shen Fuyu didn't want to suffer, and he didn't have the strong master-disciple concept of the ancient people.

He just casually recognized a cheap master, and after Shen Fuyu received some knowledge, he felt something was wrong.

"Master, I know my limits."

Although he was unsure, Shen Fuyu still refused to expose his predicament to Shen Yi.

It’s not that I don’t trust Shen Yi, but I want to protect Shen Yi’s safety.

Shen Yi nodded and did not ask any further questions.

After confirming that Shen Fuyu was not in any danger, Shen Yi left.

Shen Fuyu collapsed on the bed, rubbing her brows with a headache. Master Shen Yi had passed this test, but what if the black-robed old man knew about it in the future? With the black-robed old man's irritable temper, how could she comfort him?

Shen Fuyu tossed and turned in bed, but couldn't think of a good solution.

Shen Fuyu fell asleep unknowingly and didn't get up until noon.

The Shen sisters had already been exercising in the yard.

Since encountering dangers one after another, Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning have paid special attention to their physical fitness. Even Shen Mengning, who has always been delicate, has gradually begun to practice martial arts, if for no other reason than to be able to protect herself when encountering danger.

When Shen Fuyu came out of the shower, he saw the Shen sisters exercising in the courtyard.

Shen Fuyu was embarrassed and laughed dryly, "Miss, Miss, you are really hardworking."

"Do you want to check what time it is?"

Shen Mengwu couldn't help but complain, "Shen Fuyu, you've always been diligent, why can't you wake up today?"

"Did he do something bad behind our backs?"

Shen Mengwu just said it casually, and her attention was not even shifted away from the long whip.

Therefore, Shen Mengwu did not notice that Shen Fuyu's face stiffened for a moment.

Shen Fuyu laughed dryly, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just a little tired lately."

"Fuyu, rest when you need to. Don't overwork yourself. Be sure to take care of yourself." Shen Mengning said softly, "I saved some lunch for you. I'll have the librarian heat it up now."

Shen Sishu is Shen Mengning's personal maid.

The one who is specifically responsible for Shen Mengning's daily life in the mansion.

Shen Fuyu, who was also a maid: "..."

A blush crept up the tips of her ears. Although she had obtained the indenture, Shen Fuyu was officially a servant boy and was supposed to serve the young lady, but now she was being served by others instead.
