Master's Chief Disciple

June happens to be a hot summer.

"Senior Sister, when did you come here?" Nan Xi asked.

"Ever since Shangguan Mengrou fainted."

Nan Xi was very happy to see Mu Huayan coming, and completely forgot about Bai Yu and the others, "Senior Sister, you are so amazing, how did you do that?"

Mu Huayan reached out and tapped her forehead, then put her index finger next to her lips, signaling her to be quiet.

"Then how do we take Shangguan Mengrou away?" Nan Xi whispered in her ear.

"That fox is almost dead, so you just need to send her back directly." Mu Huayan said as she leaned against a tree nearby.

"No way? They can't be together?" Nan Xi's expression became lonely, as if she felt sorry for the couple.

Mu Huayan touched her hair, smiled and said nothing.

In fact, I was thinking in my heart: "There are cases like theirs, but they all end in tragedy."

Shangguan Mengrou leaned on Yuan's shoulder and looked at the stars in the sky. The two talked about interesting things in the past. About three hours later, the sun rose from the east.

"Yuan, the sunshine is so warm!" Shangguan Mengrou stretched out her hand to touch the golden sunshine that was falling down.

She seemed to have sensed something, and for a long while she didn't dare to move, nor did she dare to turn around to look at him. She called out softly for a long time but didn't get a reply from him, "Yuan?"

Two lines of clear tears suddenly rolled down from her eyes. She slowly turned to look at Yuan beside her and raised her hand to touch him lightly. Then he fell silently into her arms with a faint smile on his lips.

"Yuan? Pei Yuan? Pei Lang?"

She called him three times but he didn't respond. Her tears flowed like a spring. "We agreed to watch the sunset together, travel around the world together, and stay together forever. You just fell asleep, right? Look, the sun is rising, you should wake up."

Her heart felt as if it was being bitten by thousands of ants, and her tears dripped onto her cheeks, accompanied by sobs. Suddenly, a fishy-sweet liquid spurted out of her throat, and her blue and white dress was instantly stained with bright red.

Shangguan Mengrou sobbed for a while and laid Pei Yuan flat on the ground. She used her spiritual power to draw a talisman on Pei Yuan and chanted an ancient spell, "I wish to use my life as a guide and my soul as a sacrifice, so that the demon and the god can become one and merge!"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, dark clouds filled the sky, and a red array appeared on Shangguan Mengrou's body. Mu Huayan recognized that this spell was an ancient forbidden spell, and clenched her fists and muttered: "Reverse Evil Spell! Is she crazy? She would go to such lengths for a demon!"

"Senior Sister, what kind of magic is she casting?" Nan Xi put her hands in front of her eyes to block.

Wu Xiwen and the other two who noticed the movement also woke up, "What's going on?"

"Senior Sister?" Bai Yu asked in surprise.

Mu Huayan patiently explained, "An ancient forbidden technique, the anti-evil technique! Once successfully performed, the lifespan of the caster will be bound to that of the demon until death. The price is that his soul will never be able to reincarnate!"

Nan Xi couldn't help but admire Shangguan Mengrou's persistence when she heard this. At the same time, she also felt a little pity for this unrequited love. She turned away and didn't want to look at it anymore. She leaned on Bai Yu's shoulder and thought to herself, "It turns out that a person can really do anything to save the one he loves."

"She must be stopped. Our mission is to bring her back safely." Wu Xiwen said loudly.

"This is her own choice. We have no right to interfere!" Mu Huayan said as she looked at the scene happening in front of her.

"Wait until this spell is complete, then take her back!"

"But..." Wu Xiwen had a worried look on her face.

"Don't worry, Captain Wu, she..."

Before Mu Huayan finished speaking, a force surged into the formation and interrupted Shangguan Mengrou's spellcasting process.

"Yuan in another world won't be happy if you do this!" Xiao said in a low voice.

"..."

"Forget about him! Just treat it as a sweet dream!" Xiao picked up Yuan and walked forward step by step.

"Yuan, I'll take you home!" Xiao Nian said.

A dark figure in the distance landed in front of Xiao, with wounds all over his body, panting, "Zuo Si, the tribe is in chaos, and the high priest is slaughtering the best of our tribe to seize the elixir, saying that it is to awaken the elder in the tribe."

Xiao was extremely shocked when he heard the news. He recalled what Yuan had said to him. It meant that if he went back now he would be committing suicide.

The black shadow looked back in horror and said, "Zuo Si, run away quickly! Go to other tribes to hide from the spotlight."

He just said "hmm" in a faint voice, then looked at Yuan in his arms and thought to himself: "Why does he always maintain his human form? Could it be?"

"The only possibility is that his demon core has not yet been absorbed by that adult, and he still has a chance of survival!"

So he quickly walked back to Shangguan Mengrou, put him down gently, and said, "Take good care of him. I'll go get his demon pill back."

Shangguan Mengrou came back to her senses and said, "I'll go with you!"

"No! Your cultivation is not good enough and you will only cause trouble!" After Xiao said this, he disappeared from the spot.

"Senior Sister, what's going on with them?" Nan Xi said.

"Let's wait and see!" said Mu Huayan.

Wu Xiwen and Mu Huayan looked at each other and nodded. Then Wu Xiwen walked up and told Shangguan Mengrou her purpose and identity.

Nan Xi didn't understand what it meant, but she vaguely felt that things were not that simple. "Senior Sister, just tell me, is something terrible going to happen?"

"You guys have been lazy in your practice, right?" Mu Huayan changed the subject.

Bai Yu stepped forward to pull Nan Xi away, realizing that Senior Sister didn't want them to be in danger, "Senior Sister, let's go practice now."

"Senior Sister, I'm not afraid of danger, just tell me!" Nan Xi turned back and muttered.

"Nan Xi, what happens next is probably not something we can get involved in." Bai Yu said.

"But I want to help my senior sister." Nan Xi felt a little distressed when she looked at Mu Huayan's back. She always tried to find ways to protect them behind her.

Nan Xi's own strength was far inferior to that of her senior sister. She could not help at all and would only cause her trouble.
