Why do you always want to be my Taoist partner?

Chapter 71: Chapter Jealousy

Bai Sheng followed Mu Bingning quietly.

Bai Sheng has known Mu Bingning for three years. In her impression, Mu Bingning is a person who never shows her emotions, even though she is her only close friend.

She rarely saw Mu Bingning smile, and rarely saw Mu Bingning sad.

But for some reason, she always felt that Mu Bingning seemed a little weak at the moment.

She couldn't describe the feeling, she just felt that when Mu Bingning stood up and was about to leave, she seemed to become particularly exhausted, so she followed Mu Bingning silently.

The two of them had already walked a long way when Mu Bingning's voice suddenly rang out, "You came here with him today. Have you reconciled?"

Bai Sheng raised his head and hesitated for a moment, "Not really..."

"what is that?"

"I don't know either." Bai Sheng shook her head, gently pinching the hem of her skirt with her fingers, feeling a little at a loss.

She didn't understand why she got together with Jiang Li again. Perhaps it was when he put his hand on her shoulder and asked shamelessly, "Can I apply for regret?", the two looked at each other and smiled ridiculously, and the distance between them seemed to be shortened again.

Mu Bingning hummed softly, "I have something to ask Master, so I'll leave first."

Bai Sheng nodded slightly and watched Mu Bingning fly up on her sword and head towards the mountain where the sect master lived.

....................................

Mu Bingning's master lives above the Hanyuan.

Her master was the fourth person in Zhongzhou to enter the tenth level of Mahayana, and was also the leader of Xuantian Dao Ji Zong. She was not the founder of Xuantian Dao Ji Zong, but took over the position of Xuantian Dao Ji Zong from her master three hundred years ago.

At the same time, she is also Mu Bingning's biological mother.

But since childhood, Mu Bingning never knew who her father was, and this was also a taboo in Xuantian Dao Ji Zong. After all, in the past thousand years, no one had ever heard that Mu Bingning's master had an affair with any man. She was always rude to men. Even the leader of Fengling Yueying Sect, Ye Chen, had pursued her for sixty years without success, and finally suddenly heard that she was pregnant. Therefore, he turned love into hate and secretly suppressed Xuantian Dao Ji Zong from then on.

Mu Bingning once asked her mother this question when she was a child, but her mother's eyes were indifferent and she just said, "You don't have to treat me as your biological mother. You have never had a father. You don't have to tell anyone about this."

So Mu Bingning never asked again.

Over the years, Mu Bingning has always addressed her as Master. In fact, Mu Bingning has not met her many times over the years. Many people are unwilling to stay by her side because her sword intent is too strong and has unknowingly affected the people around her. Anyone who stays by her side will feel the pressure doubled.

It was a particularly torturous experience.

The last time she saw her master was half a year ago. Her master had been in seclusion on the top of Hanyuan for many years and refused most visitors. Mu Bingning had already flown to the top of Hanyuan on her sword. She looked at the yard in front of her, came to the gate of the yard and knocked gently.

................................................

The door opened naturally.

Mu Bingning walked into the yard. There was not a single flower, plant or tree in the yard. Because these flowers, plants and trees would naturally wither if they stayed around her master, the whole yard was dead silent, with a heart-pounding atmosphere.

Mu Bingning's master is Mu Xuezhi.

She was sitting under the eaves. Seeing her coming, she raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at her, "You're here?"

Mu Bingning's eyes never left the woman in front of her. She answered quietly, "Master, did you know I would come?"

Mu Bingning is known as one of the two great fairies of Xuantian Dao Ji Zong because she inherited the beauty of Mu Xuezhi. The Mu Xuezhi in front of her was wearing a white long dress, which was plain and elegant without a trace of patterns, but it made her look like a banished fairy from heaven.

Anyone who has seen Mu Xuezhi will never forget her eyes.

Her pupils were pure black, but there was not a trace of emotion in them. They were as indifferent as the flowing snow and wind, as if she was a god overlooking the world above the snow and wind, so indifferent and noble that people could not help but want to surrender to her.

"I was also watching the sword fight between the Hidden Sword Sect."

She is the leader of Xuantian Dao Ji Sect. Naturally, nothing in this sect can be hidden from her eyes, although she rarely leaves this courtyard.

Mu Bingning stood where she was, staring silently at Mu Xuezhi in front of her.

The two women seemed to be carved from the same mold, the only difference being that Mu Xuezhi's figure was a little more plump. In a trance, Mu Bingning suddenly felt like she was looking in a mirror.

Will she also have such a pair of eyes that look down on everyone indifferently in the future?

"Do you hate me?" Mu Xuezhi asked calmly.

Mu Bingning didn't say anything, but silence was her answer.

"It seems that you have made no progress in these four years." Mu Xuezhi's eyelashes drooped slightly.

Mu Bingning just stood there quietly, still silent.

Gradually, the wind and snow fell. It was raining, but the cold air in the house turned the raindrops into hazy snowflakes. Mu Bingning looked at Mu Xuezhi's face through the snowflakes. Her body looked a little thin in the wind and snow.

"I have arranged a marriage for you." Mu Xuezhi suddenly said.

Mu Bingning, who was standing in front of her, suddenly trembled, and there was finally some emotion in her eyes. She looked at Mu Xuezhi in front of her, her eyes filled with surprise, shock, and hatred.

"Master, do you want to marry me to the Fengling Yueying Sect? Or to the Anyue Xuesha Sect?" Mu Bingning suddenly laughed.

But her smile did not contain any joy at all, instead it was filled with endless paleness and mockery. She suddenly felt that what Mu Xuezhi had said four years ago was like a ridiculous joke, and her life was also like a ridiculous joke.

If only we had never met, if we had never met and knew nothing, you would just be Mu Bingning, the Mu Bingning who lived for Mu Xuezhi, then you wouldn't be in pain, right?

There was suddenly a sword in Mu Bingning's hand.

Of course, she didn't intend to draw her sword at Mu Xuezhi. With Mu Xuezhi's level of cultivation, just raising her finger would be enough to kill her thousands of times. She just raised the sword and placed it across her neck. Her eyes were full of mockery, but also particularly firm.

Even though she knew that she might not even be able to die in front of her, this represented her determination.

But Mu Xuezhi's expression didn't change at all. She just raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "How could you be sure that I would marry you to those two sects?"

"Master certainly won't let you do anything he didn't do back then."

Back then, Ye Chen of Fengling Yueying Sect pursued her for a half century, but she had never even smiled at him. At that time, the situation of Xuantian Dao Ji Sect was much more dangerous than it is now, and it was on the verge of collapse, as if it would soon collapse. Ye Chen threatened the sect, thinking that she would eventually compromise, but from beginning to end, she did not give in at all.

She used her sword to protect the entire Xuantian Dao Ji Sect, allowing the sect to continue to exist.

"I have arranged a marriage for you that you will definitely be satisfied with and happy about. Stop looking at Master with such cold eyes. You will understand in a month."

"Step back." Mu Xuezhi looked deeply at Mu Bingning in front of her, and there was still no joy or sadness in her indifferent eyes.

................................................

Jiang Li was finally led away from the top of Hidden Sword Mountain by Yue Ji's arm.

There were many envious glances along the way, but Jiang Li didn't feel embarrassed. Even though Yue Ji was hugging him like this at the moment, he was not worried that he would be disliked by other girls in the future. After all, women are all strange creatures.

They will wonder why Yueji favors you so much, so you must have extraordinary strengths. On the contrary, if you try to conquer them at this time, the process will become simpler and more brutal.

The two returned to the bamboo building. Yue Ji and Jiang Li sat on the stone chairs by the garden. Yue Ji was finally able to ask all the questions that confused her, "What exactly are you using?"

"Sword power." Jiang Li answered simply.

"Sword power?"

"It is something that has been cultivated to the extreme level of sword power."

Yue Ji nodded, not quite understanding. She was not a sword cultivator, so she didn't know much about these things, but at this moment her eyes turned slightly and said, "Recently, when I was searching for spiritual medicines that could improve Jinbie's Xuanmai, I found some news."

"what?"

"It is rumored that the Sect Master once obtained a 500-year-old Blazing Fire Spiritual Ginseng, but the Sect Master herself has water spirit roots and does not need this thing. She has not been seen rewarding anyone over the years. The spiritual ginseng may still be in the Sect Master's hands."

Jiang Li's expression changed slightly.

As a cultivator of Xuantian Dao Ji Zong, he certainly knew Mu Xuezhi and had heard many rumors about her, but he had only met Mu Xuezhi a few times. Mu Xuezhi seldom showed up in the sect. Jiang Li's impression of her was still from the sect competition four years ago. He had met that woman once, and her eyes had an inexplicable charm.

Jiang Li sensed very clearly that the woman had definitely comprehended the sword power.

"At the beginning of summer, this year's sect competition will begin. If you can win the first place, you may be able to ask the sect master for the Blazing Fire Spirit Ginseng."

"I understand." Jiang Li nodded slightly.

The corners of Yue Ji's lips curled up slowly, "Are you willing to attack Mu Bingning again now?"

"Jin, of course, other things are more important than Mu Bingning." Jiang Li replied calmly. Yue Ji came closer to him again and looked into his eyes carefully. "Have you really given up on that woman?"

"I've said several times that I'm really not moved. Do you want me to dig out my heart and see it?" Jiang Li looked at Yue Ji helplessly. Yue Ji reached out her hand and gently touched his chest, and snorted.

"If Qian Tingsheng is nothing to you, then your only opponents should be Mu Bingning and Xu Jian from Feijian Peak. You have to be more careful."

“This is the first time I’ve heard this name.”

"He is number one in Feijian Peak. He has only taken action twice in the past three years. Once, he killed a cultivator who was undergoing a minor tribulation with his flying sword, and once, he injured the third elder of Feijian Peak with his flying sword. Rumor has it that his flying sword skills are exactly the same as your Yangjian Sect's. He has not taken action for more than a year. You must be extra careful."

"You know a lot."

"Do you think everyone is like you, thinking only about women all day long?" Yue Ji pointed her finger at Jiang Li's brow and said unhappily.

Jiang Li realized that he couldn't argue with the jealous person in front of him, so he simply gave up the conversation and smiled helplessly.

Chapter 72: Chapter : Dog Woman

Jiang Li suddenly felt that people’s thoughts were really strange.

If Yue Ji had turned a blind eye to his philandering over the years, he would probably have felt quite lost. After all, a woman will care about you because she loves you, but when she is always jealous, you will find it troublesome.

So at this moment he looked at Yueji's porcelain-white face with a helpless smile. Yueji sat back in the chair and basked in the moonlight with him.

Life in the mountains is very leisurely, and it is only recently that Jiangli has become a little more lively.

He is a person who likes to be in a daze. Once there is no one talking around him, he will be distracted unconsciously. In a trance, he began to recall everything that happened recently, and always felt that some things seemed to have changed quietly without his knowledge.

It was obvious that he and Yue Ji had not been in such close contact some time ago, and he would never take the initiative to kiss Jiang Jin's lips, nor would he appear bored and show off at Yinjian Peak.

Is it because of Bai Sheng? But actually... I don't love her that much.

Jiang Li thought in a trance for a long time, and Yue Ji stood up, "I'm going back."

"I'll give it to you."

"It's just a few steps away." Yue Ji said softly, but did not refuse. Jiang Li walked beside her, smelling the faint fragrance on her body, and he just sent Yue Ji to the bottom of the stairs.

Yue Ji quickly disappeared from his sight. Jiang Li climbed up the steps and walked a short distance. He simply sat down on the steps and took out the pot of wine that Zhao Qingshan had given him today.

He seldom drinks when he is alone at home, because drinking alone will only make him more lonely. Now he is sitting on the steps, and perhaps there are birds flying in the tree beside him to keep him company.

The shadows of the trees danced in the moonlight. Jiang Li held the wine jug and drank for a long time. Until the wine in the jug was all gone, he looked up at the moon. The moonlight was bright tonight and the world was silent.

..............................

He couldn't tell the time, but he could still find the way home. He stood up, stumbling a bit, but before he took a few steps, he suddenly heard the sound of a sword in his ears.

That was the sound of a sword being unsheathed.

A sword tip as white as snow appeared in Jiang Li's sight. The sword light magnified in front of his eyes. His mind cleared up at this moment, but the speed of the sword light was too fast, so fast that it was impossible to avoid it.

A strange sword.

Jiang Li didn't remember that he had any enemies. If it was Qian Tingsheng, he wouldn't have to do this to himself. After all, the rules and regulations in the sect were very strict. If something happened to him, it would not be a good deal for Qian Tingsheng to track him down.

The sword light continued to grow in his pupils. In a flash, Jiang Li neither dodged nor evaded. The astonishment in his eyes slowly dissipated. He just stood there, no longer in the slightest panic.

Until the sword light stopped before his eyes.

The sword arrived first, then the person. A hazy figure appeared in front of Jiang Li. It was hazy because Jiang Li was clearly looking at her, but he could not remember her face and figure at all, as if these "existences" were erased by something. This is a method that can only be used by those with high cultivation levels.

"Why don't you hide?"

What fell into my ears was a cold female voice, which was full of arrogance and just a little bit of confusion.

"Because I'm not afraid, I won't hide." Jiang Li stared straight at the sword in front of him, and the previous shock had disappeared.

"Why aren't you afraid?"

"Senior, if you want to kill me, of course I will die. Since I know I will die, there is no point in being afraid." Jiang Li answered seriously.

Perhaps his answer aroused the interest of the woman opposite. She slowly moved the tip of her sword down to Jiang Li's chin, and then raised the tip of the sword. Jiang Li had to raise his head a little more and look carefully at the "hazy" thing in front of him.

Before the other party could speak again, Jiang Li spoke first, "Senior is very beautiful."

These words caught the woman sitting opposite him off guard. She was slightly stunned and asked, "Can you see my face?"

"Can't see."

"Then how did you know I was beautiful?"
