Please Spare My Life, Disciple of the Demon Lord

Jiang Tingwan accepted the fact that she was a loser as quickly as possible, but she felt much more relaxed after realizing this.

Let's just say that it's okay to be a loser. Being ordinary doesn't necessarily mean you will die young, but internal friction wastes time and energy.

But after thinking all this through, Jiang Ting finally remembered something very important:

Mu Yun finally went to Liuhua Peak, so what should she do for food?

They are real monks, and it’s okay for them to fast from time to time, but she is just a mortal now!

Thinking of this, Jiang Tingwan hurried to the small kitchen in the yard. Because Mu Yunzhong had been "occupying" the kitchen in the past few days, he had no chance to see what was inside.

Now she could only pray that there would be some rice, flour, grain and oil left in there, enough for her to survive.

But after she searched the kitchen, she finally confirmed that the Sanyuan Sect was serious about fasting! The kitchen was so clean that even an oil thief didn't come to visit!

My goodness, others are traveling through books and killing people in the world of immortals, but I am trying to survive in the wilderness of the sect!

It’s so unfair!

After being hungry for a day, Jiang Tingwan suddenly remembered the kindness of Mu Yunzhong. Although life with him was like having a knife hanging over his neck, at least he could still have a meal every day, and if he died, he would rather die with a full stomach.

It is said that man is iron and rice is steel, and if you don't eat, you will be hungry. This is an eternal truth!

"Mu Yunzhong, this is the first time I think it's a good idea for you to stay in Tingfeng Courtyard."

Jiang Tingwan lay on the bed with his back facing up. After being hungry for a day, he finally remembered Mu Yunzhong's cooking skills and spoke out almost in tears.

If there are two ways to die, one is being hacked to death, the other is being starved to death. At this moment, she chose the former.

"Master, do you really think so?" A faint voice came from the door, scaring Jiang Tingwan so much that he sat up immediately.

"You...why are you back?"

How come this guy is so elusive? Jiang Tingwan wondered in his heart.

No, it's because these immortal cultivators are so elusive that they make no sound when they walk. Mu Yunzhong is like this, and so is Lin Shuyu. If they continue like this, I'm going to be scared to death.

"Today is exactly the seventh day. The sect's kitchen is open, and the head master gave us a meal break. Thinking of the agreement with the master, I brought food back and ate with the master."

It was getting dark as evening approached. Mu Yun, who was standing at the door, was facing away from the sunlight, so his expression could not be seen for a moment.

When Jiang Tingwan saw the lunch box in his hand, he thought of what he had said to him before. Did this kid come back just to have dinner with him?

"Haha... I didn't expect you still remembered it." Jiang Tingwan forced out an awkward smile and said so.

"Master, where do you want to eat?" Mu Yunzhong seemed to be staring at Jiang Tingwan's words.

Jiang Tingwan took a long time to react, but before she could speak, Mu Yun finally made a decision for her for the first time, "Why not just stay in the courtyard! There are stars tonight."

The movement of turning his head to look at the stars revealed half of his face, which was handsome yet a little dangerous.

For some reason, an indescribable strange feeling arose in Jiang Tingwan's heart. Although Mu Yunzhong in front of him was still respectful and filial, his inquiring eyes were no longer cast with lowered eyebrows, nor were they filled with timidity and fear.

Jiang Tingwan smiled stiffly, "As you wish!"

Mu Yun finally smiled, turned around with the food box and walked towards the stone table in the yard, taking out the food in the box and placing them out one by one.

Today there were a few simple side dishes. The only meat dish was braised lion's head with the thickened soup evenly coated on the surface. But for some reason, Jiang Tingwan lost his appetite when he saw it.

"Master, please use it."

Mu Yun finally handed the chopsticks to Jiang Tingwan and sat down naturally.

Never mind, never mind, just eat whatever you can. Out of the hungry wolf's instinct, Jiang Tingwan put aside the strange feeling just now and reached for the only meat dish with his chopsticks.

"You are growing up, eat this first." Jiang Tingwan routinely picked up what he got with his first chopsticks and gave it to Mu Yunzhong.

Mu Yunnian picked up the bowl as if he had expected this, and just took the meat from Jiang Tingwan's chopsticks.

Jiang Tingwan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little strange but unable to figure it out. He just thought about it for a moment and then continued to solve the urgent problem in his stomach.

As soon as he took a bite of the dish, Jiang Tingwan frowned and the strange feeling just now was forgotten.

He cursed in his heart: Where did this sect's chef come from? I won't judge the cooking temperature or the taste, but did he buy the sect's salt with his life? Why is he so reluctant to use it?

The food tasted like chewing wax. If Jiang Tingwan wasn't extremely hungry, he would have gone to argue with the cook.

"What's wrong, Master? Are these dishes not to your liking?" Mu Yun finally noticed Jiang Tingwan's expression and asked.

"These dishes are far worse than what you cook!" Jiang Tingwan said this subconsciously and didn't think there was anything wrong with it for a moment.

Mu Yunzhong's eyes narrowed, and he also said, "It is a little bland. The sect's food has always been like this. Master also said that if a cultivator does not have basic physical needs, the desire for food will only affect their cultivation."

"I..." Jiang Tingwan's words froze in his mouth. He looked at Mu Yunzhong bitterly, unable to express his pain.

I actually said such a stupid thing! ? ? That's right, no desire, no desire, no emotion, this is Bai Wangshu's personality, but now it's different, now she, Jiang Tingwan, is his master.

Noticing that Mu Yun was still waiting for him to finish what he had said, Jiang Tingwan immediately restrained his expression and spoke earnestly, like a hermit.

"While this is true, practitioners should not only pursue different levels of spiritual power, but also make progress and changes in their mentality. Most practitioners seek to purify their minds and focus their spirits, and require themselves to abandon human desires, and regard desires as a flood and a beast. Little do they know that just distinguishing between good and bad and abandoning human desires is not enough to be considered a pure mind and a focused spirit."

Jiang Tingwan started talking nonsense again, speaking in a mysterious way, not caring whether you could understand him or not.

Mu Yunzhong on the opposite side seemed to be learning a lesson and actually began to think carefully about Jiang Tingwan's words.

Seeing this, Jiang Tingwan felt more confident and continued, "Therefore, if you really want to achieve a pure mind and a focused spirit, you should view everything as one thing, without seeking to gain or giving up. Then the desire for food and drink will no longer be the desire itself. You will be able to let the wine and meat pass through your intestines, and your heart for Tao will naturally remain."

After saying a lot of things, Jiang Tingwan finally figured out why he had to eat all day long - it was not that he was really greedy, but his state of mind had reached a higher level and he could face his desires directly.

After saying so much, Jiang Tingwan began to admire himself. Thanks to the fact that he was an online writer, he could easily make up the word count!

"This is the first time that Master has told me this." Mu Yunzhong replied thoughtfully, and there was more thought in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Tingwan.

691!

The number above Mu Yunzhong’s head flashed again!

What a blessing from the sky! Jiang Tingwan celebrated excitedly in his heart!

He immediately took advantage of the victory and said, "Actually, you are very smart. It doesn't matter whether I say these words or not."

Jiang Tingwan seemed to be praising him sincerely, and his eyes were filled with the expectations and pride of a master for his apprentice.

"Now you have gone to Liuhua Peak, where the spiritual energy is abundant, and you and Mu Qingge are both receiving guidance from Senior Brother. Master believes that in time you will definitely be better than them."

Jiang Tingwan rolled his eyes in his heart: Of course I believe it, because you are pretending!

Today, Jiang Tingwan said many things that Mu Yun would never hear before.

The pair of eyes that were staring at her turned slightly, as if avoiding something, but then seemed to remember something, and replied unconfidently, "I am ashamed. I have been gathering Qi for thirteen years. Even if I receive the Three Yuan Jue from the head master, I still cannot comprehend its true meaning. My master's hard work is in vain."

Having said that, Mu Yun finally lowered his head and returned to his previous inferiority complex and cowardly appearance.

When Jiang Tingwan saw his look, he instantly understood that he was trying to show weakness to her and use this opportunity to inquire about the practice method of San Yuan Jue.

Jiang Tingwan narrowed his eyes slightly and snorted in his heart. Although he did know this key method, after all, this setting was also made by him, but...

but……

But how can you, Mu Yun, finally know about this?

I haven't found a way to protect myself yet, so how can I make you strong?

What's more, the Sanyuan Jue is indeed a secret method that is both good and evil, and can be used to cultivate immortality or the devil. The key to success is extreme love and hate. Only those who completely abandon human nature and ruthlessly kill and those who have a heart of great love and responsibility for the world can avoid being backlashed by the Sanyuan Jue.

That is to say, when the practice of the Three Yuan Secrets reaches a critical stage, it does not matter which option you choose, whether it is choosing benevolence or choosing to abandon human nature.

This is what is called one thought makes you a Buddha, and one thought makes you a devil.

This is also the reason why Bai Wangshu did not suffer any backlash, because Mu Xingzhi's abandonment made her cut off all feelings and thoughts, and she willingly gave up all human desires.

However, when the last choice appeared, she was unable to achieve absolute hatred or absolute love for Mu Xingzhi, so she failed.

In the later period, Mu Yun finally understood the secret of San Yuan Jue after his ultimate blackening, and thus learned it without a teacher and broke through to the heavenly level in one fell swoop. Presumably, this was also the reason why he later stepped into the path of magic and became the ruler of the entire world.

Therefore, Mu Yun must never know this secret before he finds a way to protect himself.

This is the bottom line!

Jiang Tingwan warned himself in his heart.
