Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

The sunlight shines through the treetops and casts a mottled shadow on the bluestone path.

Xuanyu walked out of his courtyard, his steps light and steady, each step seemed to resonate harmoniously with the surrounding nature.

He was calm until the oriole's sweet voice broke the silence.

"Senior Brother Yu..." There was a barely perceptible hint of joy in Lan Xi's voice.

She emerged from the shade of the tree, looking like an orchid bud, fresh and refined. Her eyes gleamed with anticipation, as if awaiting Xuanyu's response.

Xuanyu is Ling Ziqian's junior fellow apprentice, and he knows who is coming without even looking.

Xuanyu stopped and turned around, his smile full of fondness, "Well, Junior Sister, why are you here?"

His voice was gentle, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, stirring up ripples.

"Brother Yu said, can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?" Lan Xi pouted deliberately, her voice full of coquettishness.

Her eyes curved into crescents, and the smile on her lips was like peach blossoms blooming in spring, which made people feel pity and love.

"Yes, of course. So, Senior Brother Yu should thank Junior Sister?" Xuan Yu slapped Lan Xi's forehead with a smile. His movements were gentle and full of brotherly intimacy.

Lan Xi let out an exaggerated "ouch" and pretended to be angry, "Senior Brother Yu is bullying me." There was a hint of playfulness in her voice, but her eyes were full of smiles.

Xuanyu shook his head and said nothing more.

Knowing Lan Xi's personality, this little junior sister has been spoiled by her master and her fellow disciples since she was a child. Every little emotion of hers touches their hearts.

"Hey, Senior Brother Yu, are you going out? Where are you going?" Lan Xi seemed to suddenly think of this and asked.

There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes, and she seemed to be very interested in Xuanyu's whereabouts.

"Well, I'm going to my master." Xuanyu said, and took a step forward.

His steps were firm, as if he had a mission that had to be accomplished.

Upon hearing this, Lan Xi said innocently, "Oh, then I'll go with you. I haven't seen my master for a few days." There was a hint of expectation in her voice, as if she wanted to complete this journey with Xuanyu.

"Okay, let's go." Xuanyu nodded, his eyes full of doting, as if he could never refuse Lan Xi's request.

The two of them arrived at Dou Yuntian's courtyard door, one in front and one behind, and heard voices coming out. Xuanyu was about to push the door open, but was stopped by Lan Xi.

He turned his head and looked at Lan Xi in confusion, only to see that her face was a little pale and there was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

The two of them just stood in front of the door, listening to what Dou Yuntian and Bo Jian were talking about.

While Dou Yuntian and Bo Jian were playing chess, they were also discussing Ling Ziqian's interest in Xue Yao. They didn't expect these two people to come and hear everything they talked about.

Now, Lan Xi refused to do it.

Ling Ziqian and she have been engaged since childhood, and she is still waiting to fly together with him. How could he be interested in another woman?

A strong sense of dissatisfaction and jealousy surged in her heart, and her hands tightly grasped Xuanyu's sleeves, her nails almost digging into the flesh.

Xuanyu knew his junior sister's temper, and he was afraid that this matter would cause trouble.

He had no other choice but to secretly worry about his master.

He wanted to turn around and leave, but he couldn't. The junior sister insisted pulling him aside, saying that she had heard about it too and couldn't pretend not to know.

Since she was little, not only has Master doted on her, but her fellow apprentices have also been doting on her. I'm afraid the little apprentice won't let this go.

What can he do?

Let’s go into Master’s yard together.

Xuanyu took a deep breath, he knew that what was going to happen next would not be easy.

He patted Lan Xi's hand gently, signaling her to relax.

Then, he slowly pushed open the gate and walked in with Lan Xi.

Dou Yuntian and Bo Jian's conversation came to an abrupt halt, and their eyes turned to the door at the same time.

Dou Yuntian's brows furrowed slightly, a hint of displeasure in his eyes. Bo Jian, on the other hand, was surprised. He obviously didn't expect Xuan Yu and Lan Xi to appear at this moment.

"Master, Uncle Bo." Xuanyu bowed respectfully. His voice was calm, and he didn't seem embarrassed by the sudden interruption.

Lan Xi bit her lip, a hint of stubbornness in her eyes. She said nothing, just stood there quietly, waiting for Dou Yuntian to speak.

Dou Yuntian's eyes swept over Xuanyu and Lanxi, a look of scrutiny in his eyes. He knew Lanxi's temperament, and seeing her unfriendly expression, he understood why she was like that.

He took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Did you all hear it?"

Xuanyu nodded, he did not deny it.

Lan Xi pursed her lips tightly, her eyes showing a hint of determination, "Master, I..."

Dou Yuntian sighed, he knew that this matter could not be solved easily.

He glanced at Bo Jian, then turned to Xuan Yu and Lan Xi, "You two should sit down first, and let's talk."

Xuanyu and Lanxi looked at each other, then slowly sat down.

They knew that the following conversation would determine many things, including Ling Ziqian's future and Lan Xi's engagement.

The atmosphere in the yard became solemn and the sunlight seemed to dim.

The four of them sat around the stone table, each of them filled with mixed emotions. Dou Yuntian took a deep breath. He knew he had to make a decision, a decision that would be fair to everyone.

"Xi'er, don't worry. We know you're engaged to Qian'er. Your uncle and I will take care of this matter for you."

A hint of surprise flashed in Lan Xi's eyes, "Thank you, Master!"

Dou Yuntian continued, "However, love can't be forced. If Qian'er really falls in love with Xueyao and you force him to be with you, I'm afraid you'll end up being a couple of enemies in the future."

Lan Xi's eyes welled up when she heard this. "But Master, we've been engaged since childhood. How can we change it just like that?"

Xuan Yu softly advised, "Junior Sister, Master is doing this for your own good. A forced melon won't be sweet."

Lan Xi glared at Xuan Yu, "Brother Yu, who are you on the side of?"

Bo Jian spoke up at this point: "Xi'er, you're a good girl. We'll first find Qian'er and ask him about his feelings. If he still has feelings for you, then we'll all be happy. If he's still interested in someone else, we'll also give you an explanation."

Lan Xi was silent for a moment before saying, "Okay, then I'll wait for news from Master and Uncle-Master. But if Ling Ziqian betrays me, I won't let it go."

After saying that, she stood up, bowed to everyone, turned around and left quickly.

Seeing this, Xuanyu hurriedly followed, leaving Dou Yuntian and Bo Jian sighing as they watched their backs. They knew that no matter what the outcome, this storm would not be easily quelled.

"Brother, we should call Qian'er over and listen to his opinion first. This matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later." Bo Jian crossed his arms, sighed, and said to Dou Yuntian very seriously.

Dou Yuntian nodded and immediately sent a message to Ling Ziqian.

Not long after, Ling Ziqian hurried over. Seeing the two elders' serious expressions, he couldn't help but start to speculate...
