Chapter 138 Who is not a high-ranking rebel?

Luo Xinlian looked at the girl whom she had picked up casually and taught some skills to casually. Their fate as master and disciple all originated from her momentary casualness.

But even though she was her disciple, apart from providing her with a place to live and teaching her some martial arts, Gu Xinlian basically left her completely alone.

Gu Xinlian heard that her apprentice later joined a killer organization called "Yanluomen", became a gold medal killer, and made a name for himself in the martial arts world.

With red hair and blue eyes, people called him "Blood Rakshasa". Well, it was indeed a popular naming style at that time.

If it were this year, she would probably be called the red-haired devil. After all, times are changing and popular styles are also constantly changing.

Gu Xinlian also heard that this organization was later destroyed by the imperial court and those famous and upright sects, and her disciple's whereabouts were unknown, and his life or death was uncertain.

Some people said that Blood Rakshasa had died in the heavy rain on the night when the organization was destroyed, while others said that Blood Rakshasa was still alive, had been rescued, and was living in seclusion in a place.

For Gu Xinlian, if she died, it would just be like the little wild cat she picked up on a whim and died while wandering outside. She could only blame herself for her lack of skills.

But after learning that his apprentice was still alive, Gu Xinlian still had to come and see what the little wild cat he had picked up had become.

But it seems that the wildness in her has been tamed and she has become a docile house cat.

"Little Wildcat, Blue Eyes, or Blood Rakshasa, what should I call you now?"

Gu Xinlian spoke slowly, his pair of enchanting red eyes fixed on the black-clad girl in front of him.

Her eyes and hair were normal black at this time. This was the self-defense technique that Gu Xinlian taught her to cover up her most striking features.

"Master, my current name is Tongxin, which was given to me by the master."

Tong Xin took a deep breath, her hair gradually turned from black to red, and her dark eyes turned into a pair of green eyes, revealing her true face.

Tongxin hadn't seen her master for many years, but there was no emotion in her heart. It was as if she had met a familiar stranger. She was neither familiar with her nor had any good feelings towards her.

However, if her master had not picked her up and taught her martial arts, she would not be who she is today, and she would never have met the person she would spend her whole life protecting.

Tongxin has always kept in mind the kindness of her master.

"Master? Is that the man in white? He seems to be the current prime minister. I didn't expect him to be so young. Are you serving him?"

Luo Xinlian thought about it. She had just come out of confinement not long ago and did not have much information at hand.

She only knew that the disciple she picked up back then was still alive and serving someone, and that person was the current prime minister.

She also knew that the prime minister had married the empress's own sister... and was secretly plotting a rebellion.

"Ah."

In response, Tong Xin nodded slightly.

Luo Xinlian slowly came over, walked around Tongxin's body, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and said:

"Tong Xin, your eyes are not as sharp as before, your claws have become blunt, and the wildness in your body is almost gone. If you go back to the past, can you still survive?"

"The past is over, and I am no longer the Blood Rakshasa. I am now just the master's personal maid. My name is Tong Xin."

Tong Xin said solemnly to the white-haired woman in front of her, she is no longer the same person she used to be.

"No, Tongxin, you can't escape your past. The past will still chase you, but can you face your past now?"

Luo Xinlian shook her head and said lightly.

Tong Xin's expression changed slightly, she couldn't help but sighed and said:

"Master, if you came here to tell me this, I have something else to do, so I will leave you alone for now."

Tong Xin said this expressionlessly, and then prepared to leave.

She still has responsibilities to fulfill and cannot leave her master for too long to avoid any accidents.

"Haha, why are you in such a hurry to leave? We haven't seen each other for many years, so we naturally have to reminisce about the past. Don't you have anything to say to Master?"

Luo Xinlian couldn't help but shrugged. She didn't expect her disciple to be so indifferent, so she imitated Tong Xin's tone and movements, rubbed her eyes and said:

"For example, wuwu, Master, Tong'er misses you so much."

"No."

The only response she got was Tong Xin's voice which was devoid of any emotion.

But she also knew that her master treated her the same way.

Luo Xinlian's expression changed instantly. She looked at the girl in front of her and asked her:

"Are you still a virgin?"

"……Um."

Tong Xin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and after a long time, she nodded slightly.

"Is your master blind? Such a beautiful girl is by his side, obeying his every word, but he doesn't have any thoughts at all. Is he castrated?"

Luo Xinlian suddenly stood up for her disciple.

Her disciple is so good-looking and obedient. If it were her, her disciple would probably be preparing for a second child.

"My Lord has his own plans, and I have no intention of trying to figure out what he is thinking."

Tong Xin just sighed softly and spoke in a calm voice.

In fact, she tried many methods, but failed in the end.

"Master, if you can do it, come here?"

Tongxin suddenly asked, her master has been in the world for so many years, he must be very experienced.

When she suddenly asked this, Luo Xinlian was stunned for a moment, and her expression became a little embarrassed.

"Tong Xin, although the master also wants to teach you, but the master... is known as Master Miejue."

Rather than saying that she can't find a man, it's better to say that she is not interested in men at all. She doesn't even have a man at her age. The only one who can compare with her is probably the old maid in Yujingfang.

"Tong Xin, your lord, is he colluding with the rebels?"

At this time, Luo Xinlian suddenly asked her.

Tongxin immediately became alert, even though the other person was her master.

The collusion between the lord and the rebels is a secret. If the court knows about it, it will be a capital crime.

She couldn't help but frown and asked Luo Xinlian:

"Master, where did you get this information?"

"Haha, you don't have to be so vigilant. Master is also a rebel, and a high-ranking one. His slogan is to fight against Yan and restore Qin."

Luo Xinlian introduced herself and said that she had always been a member of the rebel army and a high-ranking one, but she had never mentioned this to Tongxin.

The lord that Tongxin currently serves is also a high-ranking rebel, and he is lurking even deeper in Dayan. The reason why he married the empress's younger sister is to prepare for future rebellion.

"Your lord is also a high-ranking member of our rebel army. Master will naturally support him with all his strength. What you have to do is to protect him and not let anything happen to him."

Luo Xinlian explained to Tong Xin calmly that this time when she came out of seclusion, in addition to meeting her apprentice, she also planned to meet this high-ranking rebel who was lurking deeply in Dayan.

Chapter 139 Talented Woman Seeking a Marriage

"Master, are you a high-ranking member of the rebels?"

Tong Xin frowned slightly. Why did she feel that there were rebels everywhere around her?

No, it would be more accurate to say that the rebels had already infiltrated Dayan.

"I think I am."

Seeing that Tong Xin was a little unconvinced, Luo Xinlian shrugged and said:

"You don't want me to take off my shoes to show you the Fan Yan Fu Qin on my feet, do you? That's used by the lower-level members of the rebel army to confirm their identities, and it's not needed by the higher-ups."

After saying that, she didn’t care whether Tongxin believed it or not. She turned around and, just like when she came, her figure gradually blended into the darkness, and even her breath gradually disappeared.

Before, she deliberately released her aura to attract Tongxin to see her.

I didn't expect that she still remembered my breath. It was worth it that Luo Xinlian picked her up.

"I have some things to deal with now. After a while, I will come to see your master in person. I want to see what kind of person he is. How can he resist the beauty of his disciple?"

After the last word was uttered, Luo Xinlian's voice came to an abrupt end, and her breath completely disappeared.

If she wanted to leave, no one would be able to find her whereabouts.

After Luo Xinlian left, Tong Xin thought of what she had just said, and she couldn't help but look at her hands.

Once upon a time, these hands were still covered in blood, and her claws were extremely sharp, a deadly weapon.

But now, she has pulled herself out of the environment of constant fighting, and her claws have gradually become dull because she has not used them for too long.

Her past will catch up with her sooner or later.

If that happens, will her hands without claws still be able to protect the people most important to her?

Tong Xin shook her head and put the idea behind her. She patted her cheeks hard and murmured:

"Don't think too much. We have to go back quickly. The master will be anxious if he can't see anyone."

After saying that, Tong Xin lightly stepped on the lotus feet, jumped onto the house, and returned to the outside of the temple fair.

She stood on a nearby rooftop, her eyes swept across the bustling crowd, and soon locked onto a familiar figure in the crowd.

At this time, Xu Chengling was extremely anxious and was looking for Tongxin everywhere, but he didn't know where this girl had gone.

At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of Xu Chengling, with a smile on his face, and greeted him:

"Master, are you looking for Tong'er?"

Seeing Tong Xin appear, Xu Chengling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He gently scratched the girl's nose with his fingers and said angrily:

"Where have you been? I thought you were kidnapped."

Of course, with Tongxin's martial arts skills, it is not certain who will abduct whom.

"Tong'er just went to meet an acquaintance and will be back soon."

Tong Xin smiled slightly.

"acquaintance?"

In Xu Chengling's impression, Tongxin didn't know many acquaintances, but she knew more dead people.

"Is it Li Li?"

He couldn't help but think about it and asked, if there was anyone Tong Xin was more familiar with, it seemed that the only one was Mo Li.

"No, it's another person, whom Tong'er once mentioned to you."

Tong Xin shook her head slightly and also hinted at him.

"He mentioned it? Let me think... could it be your master, the peerless master?"

Xu Chengling thought for a moment and then spoke.

Among the acquaintances that Tong Xin mentioned, besides Mo Li, it seemed that the only one who was still alive was her mysterious master.

Judging from the tone of voice when Tongxin mentioned this master, he should be a person with extremely high martial arts skills. After all, it was she who taught Tongxin these martial arts.

"Well, it's her."

Tong Xin nodded, and there was no emotion on her face, as if she was meeting a stranger.

"How is she doing now?"

"Fortunately."

"If I have the chance, I would like to meet her and thank her. After all, if she hadn't accepted you as her apprentice, I wouldn't have met you now."
