Fairy sister, I am not your white moonlight

Ye Xun solemnly placed the half-broken score on the table.

This time it was Du Xiuming's turn to raise his eyebrows in surprise.

Chapter 46: Senior Sister Long is still addicted?

He obviously didn't expect Ye Xun to carry the sword manual with him, nor did he expect him to return it so straightforwardly.

The Taiqing Sect focuses on swords and does not care about anything else. Even this formation manual compiled by a powerful combined warrior was thrown in the corner of the Sutra Library, gathering dust.

But it is still a treasure. If Ye Xun had seen it with his own eyes, he would understand this even more.

"When I came across this formation manual, it had already been eroded by wind and bitten by insects, and no one had read it. After it came into my hands, I have carefully preserved it until now, and I dare not neglect it."

After Ye Xun finished speaking, he saw Du Xiuming take the half yellowed formation manual in his hand and look at it carefully.

He found that what Ye Xun said was true, there were indeed traces of insect bites on it, but they had stopped about a year ago, and although it had been frequently read since then, it was still well maintained.

In fact, it is not just the Taiqing Sect. Most cultivators in the world today regard formations as unorthodox and disdain to learn them.

This Ye Xun, who has the true teachings of the "Sword Immortal" Li Changfeng, is still studying Du Xiuming's formation, which is extremely rare.

Du Xiuming looked up and saw Ye Xun clasping his hands towards him.

“If there is any transgression, Ye Xun is willing to be punished, but I just hope that the elder can let this assistant go.

She is originally a disciple of Liuying Sect, and she was the one who prepared the new robes that the elder just wore. These days, Xiao Jinyun has only been helping me with my medical consultations, and has nothing to do with this matter. "

Actively handing over the remaining troops was a risky move on his part.

If the bet is right, you can get a chance of survival from the powerful combined monk in his prime.

If he made a wrong bet, he would most likely be silenced by Du Xiuming, who would no longer have any worries.

But facing the powerful combined cultivator, Ye Xun had no choice but to take an unconventional approach and take the initiative to gain a chance of survival.

If Du Xiuming still wanted to attack regardless, he had also prepared the Turtle Breath Pill to fake his death, and with the help of the Moon Marrow clone, it would not be a problem for him to escape unscathed.

However, this will inevitably affect Ye Xun's plan to cure Xiao Jinyun, so even if there is only a slight possibility, Ye Xun must seize the opportunity.

Du Xiuming glanced at the little mute.

The girl wore a Taoist robe, but her eyes were often hidden timidly under her bangs. No matter her cultivation or appearance, there was nothing worthy of attention.

"You are quite different from that old rogue. You value friendship much more than he does."

When the Grand Elder spoke again, his tone was much calmer and his aura gradually subsided.

But Ye Xun knew that the crisis facing him was not over.

In Du Xiuming's eyes, his purpose of coming to Liuying Sect is still a mystery, and those with unclear motives are the most suspicious.

Being loyal and righteous may sound great, but in reality it is empty and far from convincing enough.

No one would believe that he came to Liuying Sect just to treat a little mute. Besides, Ye Xun did not intend to reveal the trump card of the Heavenly Book Fragments.

“I don’t deserve it. Actually, I have always wanted to make further progress in formation, so I asked for your guidance.”

Ye Xun spoke slowly and with a serious expression, but he had already expressed the greatest respect.

This request was a bit frivolous, but it was not insignificant, and was enough to explain why Ye Xun was willing to take the risk.

As for Xiao Jinyun, his heart was now beating uncontrollably.

Just now, the Supreme Elder seemed to have the intention of letting him go, but Ye Xun's behavior at this moment was no less than an active provocation.

Xiao Jinyun's small body trembled. Without caring about being afraid, he quickly touched the spirit stones he had saved up over the past few days through his Taoist robe.

Even if all of these spirit stones were used to beg for mercy, it might not necessarily make the dignified Grand Elder take a second look at him.

But she was a little mute who was a registered disciple not long ago, and she couldn't produce more treasures. What should she do now...

Just when she was hesitating, Ye Xun patted her shoulder, and her tense body relaxed at once.

Maybe he has his own plan.

Thinking of Ye Xun's performance on the first day he reached Lingxu Peak, the little mute took a deep breath and felt a little relieved and calm.

She looked at the boy deeply and clenched her fists.

In this case, she is always ready to cooperate to the best of her ability, or at least not to fall behind.

Want to learn my own formation... Du Xiuming chuckled in his heart.

It is rare to have a desire for combat tactics in today's world where kendo is the mainstream.

However, since Ye Xun's target was not his granddaughter, Du Xiuming felt relieved.

"Your modification of the Immortal Trapping Formation is indeed quite interesting. Even I was caught off guard and was fooled. However, its lethality is still insufficient."

Du Xiuming put the half-broken score into his arms.

The reason why he was fooled just now was certainly because he underestimated the enemy, but he also saw Ye Xun's transformation of the Immortal Trapping Formation.

As a self-taught person who lacks basic knowledge, it is quite rare to have such brilliant ideas. In the field of formation, the most difficult thing is actually "seeking change".

Regardless of the purpose, Du Xiuming already had some recognition for this young man who was neither humble nor arrogant and knew etiquette.

"But let me ask you, what do you want to do after learning the formation?"

"To protect my patients, and for myself, so that I can travel the world in the future."

Ye Xun was neither humble nor arrogant, and what he said was not false.

In order to repair the remaining fragments of the Heavenly Book, Ye Xun would definitely need to work hard.

There is no free lunch in the world, and Ye Xun has long been prepared to give his all.

The old man with white beard suddenly laughed out loud, but it was not a mockery, but more of a relief after relaxation.

He finally discovered a hint of sharpness in Ye Xun, which was something he should have at his age. He was no longer as elusive as when they first met.

Traveling around the world, which means not staying here for long, is indeed somewhat similar to Li Changfeng back then.

Anyway, he had to repay the favor on behalf of his granddaughter.

I just don’t know, if Ye Xun’s capital for traveling the world is his own formation, and not Li Changfeng’s swordsmanship, how would the old man feel when he knew it?

Du Xiuming chuckled in his heart again.

"Get paper, a pen... and some wine."

All the doubts in his mind were gone at this moment. He let out a long sigh, lifted the sleeves of his Taoist robe, and spread out his palms.

Since the name is "Jiuzhenzi", it is normal to require wine when teaching and discussing the formation. In the past, poets often became inspired to write poetry after drinking.

Ye Xun's pupils shrank. He fumbled in his storage ring for a long time and found that all the stored wine was used as fuel. He placed it in the immortal trap formation outside to grill the white-bearded old man in front of him.

"Senior, I don't know..."

"You want to learn the formation, but you can't even bear to drink. Do you really want to learn?"

Ye Xun wanted to see if there was any other way, but Du Xiuming had already raised his hand to stop him, and his expression gradually became solemn.

After all, that was his life's work. Even if he didn't become his disciple, he should at least have a jar of wine. If Ye Xun really came for his formation, he should have been prepared.

Unless, he is lying.

Seeing Ye Xun's difficulty, Xiao Jinyun swallowed his saliva, suppressed his nervousness, and trotted back to his room. When he came back, he was holding two jars of wine in his hands.

The little mute bought a few jars of wine a few days ago. He originally intended to mix it with hot water and use it to wipe the sweat and cool down the young man who often boiled medicine in front of the fire.

But it’s useful now.

Paper, pen and wine were all there. Du Xiuming drooped his eyelids slightly, raised his nose slightly, sniffed the aroma of the wine, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Although it is not a rare type of wine, it is also a high-quality product that can be bought normally, and it is quite good.

"You are not my disciple, so I will only teach you once. How much you can understand depends entirely on your own understanding."

Du Xiuming called Ye Xun over, picked up the wine bowl, held the pen in one hand, and wrote and drew freely on the paper.

…………

After a night, Old Man Du was already drunk at the table.

Ye Xun sorted out the precious manuscript papers that recorded Du Xiuming's unique formation and carefully kept them in his storage ring.

Maybe he was reserved at the beginning, but gradually he got drunk, and Ye Xun always asked one or two tricky and profound questions, which had long been teased in Du Xiuming to spew out all his understanding.

It was already dawn, and the little mute's eyelids were drooping, but he still stayed stubbornly by the two of them until everything was over, when sleepiness surged over him like a tide.

"You can go and catch up on some sleep. I can ask the lecturer for leave on your behalf."

Ye Xun stood up, but saw the little mute with his eyes lowered, not moving at all.

It doesn't look like he fell asleep. Could he have fainted from excessive fatigue?

He raised his hand to check Xiao Jinyun's pulse, but was suddenly hugged by the girl.

Its height only reached Ye Xun's chest, and its little head was bent over and trembling, as if it would shatter into pieces if touched.

"I had no choice this time. Next time, I won't take such a risk again."

Ye Xun hesitated for a moment, but still patted the girl's shoulder.

The girl's shoulders shook even more violently, as if she was relieved of a heavy burden.

She was really afraid that something might happen to Ye Xun, so she had to hurry up.

At the same time, Long Lianxue quietly pushed the door open and saw Ye Xun and Xiao Jinyun hugging each other.

In fact, she was guarding the door last night because she was afraid that her grandfather would get angry and hurt Ye Xun.

But fortunately, they seemed to have a pretty happy chat last night?

Although she wanted to yawn constantly after staying up all night, when Long Lianxue saw the strong and cute little mute step into Ye Xun's arms and cry, she couldn't help but curl her lips.

Although there is still some way to go before success, a lot of progress has obviously been made.

In this case, the best apology and compensation would be to quietly take the troublesome light bulb away.

"Grandpa?"

"Hmm? Lianxue..."

"Shh, follow me and don't disturb them."

The red-haired girl made a hushing gesture to the white-bearded old man who had just woken up from a drunken night, and prepared to leave by supporting him.

"Miss Long."

Ye Xun's voice came from behind. Senior Sister Long, who was tiptoeing, suddenly stiffened. She supported Du Xiuming and looked back with a wry smile.

"excuse me……"

"Please thank the Grand Elder for me. Thank you for all his generous teachings last night."

Ye Xun shook his head with a serious face.

Looking at the girl who had separated from him at some point and was now lowering her head with a red face, the eldest sister smiled helplessly.

"I know, I know, you two continue."

In her opinion, the only man worthy of the little mute's lifelong trust is Ye Xun.

However, she quickly remembered something and a look of worry crossed her face.

"Ye Xun, in a few days, the sect will organize inner disciples to go out for trials and defeat monsters. All inner disciples must go."

Xiao Jinyun raised his head and realized something from Long Lianxue's words.

She is now also considered an inner disciple, but she has only the foundation-building level of cultivation.

The trials for inner disciples require at least the Golden Core Stage to ensure safety.

"That would be too dangerous for her, but Xiao Jinyun has not yet been officially included in the inner sect roster... If necessary, I can ask the elders to delay it."

Long Lianxue originally wanted to ask Elder Lingxu to temporarily cancel the little mute's inner sect quota to protect her.

But she thought about it again and decided that it would be better to leave the matter to the two of them to decide for themselves, and it would be best not to act on her own.

Ye Xun glanced at the obviously nervous little mute beside him and nodded.

"Thanks for the reminder. I'll get back to you later."

For Ye Xun, this trial is an opportunity to untie the knot in the little mute's heart.
