The sacred tree is about to pass, and the cannon fodder's wish countdown is coming

When Lu Ciyan woke up from a sweet dream in a daze, the first person he saw was not Lu Shi, whom he had been thinking about, but Xu Chenjue with a complicated expression.

Thinking of the other party's kind advice to him before leaving, Lu Ciyan smiled and said, "Hello, Junior Brother."

"Why are you in my room?"

Xu Chenjue bit his lower lip lightly, as if he was undergoing an intense psychological struggle.

After a long moment, he seemed to have made up his mind. He looked up at Lu Ciyan and said, "Brother, do you like Master? The kind of love between a man and a woman."

Lu Ciyan was stunned for a moment, then realized that it was Lu Shi who confessed their relationship to him. He was delighted, his face full of smiles, his eyes filled with a hint of shyness, "Yes, I like Master."

When he said this, it seemed as if all the stars fell into his eyes, or perhaps the stars in the sky were not as dazzling as his eyes.

Xu Chenjue couldn't bear it and turned his eyes away, saying softly: "Brother, this is against etiquette..."

"None of your business is my business!" Lu Ciyan had good intentions to share his joy with the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to interfere in his feelings. He immediately became impatient and his tone became a little harsh.

"You are my junior brother. Don't take advantage of your age to lecture me. I know exactly what I am doing!"

He has now got what he wanted, and it is worth it even if he has to fight against the whole world.

So what if the world doesn’t tolerate it? No one will care about their ideas.

"What about Master? How do you expect others to see Master?"

Xu Chenjue's eyes turned cold, and the domineering aura of a male protagonist was faintly revealed. "You are only twenty years old. Others will just think you are young and ignorant. What about Master? Have you ever considered Master?"

"Do you want to tarnish the image of a person who has been a role model to everyone since childhood?"

Lu Ciyan was dazed for a moment, but the next second his eyes cleared up and he began to argue logically, "Master and I are in love and have a mutual affection. Why would this be a stain?"

"Master has become a role model for everyone because she has great kindness in her heart, is gifted, and is very powerful. Now that she's with me, these things no longer exist?"

Xu Chenjue closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he did not argue with him, but just began to state the facts lightly.

"I saw it. You forced Master to be close to you, and she was ice cold when she broke away from you."

He exhaled a sigh of frustration, "Master said she's going into seclusion, and the timeframe is uncertain."

Lu Ciyan's high spirits seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water. He trembled and his hands under the quilt shook uncontrollably.

His throat felt like it had swallowed thousands of razor blades, and his words were hoarse and unpleasant. "You mean, Master... doesn't want to?"

"Yes!" Xu Chenjue answered solemnly.

"I do not believe!"

Lu Ciyan's expression was already somewhat crazy.

how could be?

He and his master had done such intimate things before, and for seven whole days, they were inseparable.

He thought they both tacitly agreed that they had a relationship over the past few days.

He thought his master had finally accepted him.

He thought...

Is this what he thought?

He doesn't believe it!

He wants to find his master!

Lu Shi lifted the quilt and couldn't help but rush out wearing only a thin inner garment.

Seeing this, Xu Chenjue did not stop him, but just picked up the outer robe hanging beside the bed and let it fall far behind him.

Lu Ciyan was wearing a white inner garment and no shoes. He walked barefoot on the white snow. His face was as pale as the snow.

The pure white sky made him almost invisible between heaven and earth. Only his loose black hair fluttered gently in the cold wind, allowing people to see clearly that it was a human figure.

Footprints appeared in the snow, and Lu Ciyan stumbled towards the cave where Lu Shi was.

At this moment, he forgot about his spiritual power and his ability to fly with a sword. He just took steps based on his body's instinct.

Finally arriving at his destination, the glaring restriction at the cave entrance slapped him in the face. At that moment, he seemed to have lost all his strength, his legs softened, and he fell straight to his knees.

"Hour……"

"Master..."

He shouted towards the cave, again and again. The cold wind flowed into his throat through his mouth, causing his throat to ache, but his hoarse voice never stopped.

Later, he gradually lost his voice, and his lips opened and closed but no sound came out.

“…”Master.

The snow beneath me gradually began to melt and turned into a pool of snow, but I didn't know whether it contained more snow water or tears.

Master...

Why, why did everything change suddenly...

He was kneeling on the ground, his eyes bloodshot.

The Zhu Wu in his mind began to assert his presence again, but this time, his voice became somewhat unbearable, "I told you, your master doesn't like you."

"Even if you get her, she still won't like you."

"Those pursuing the Great Dao have the hardest and most ruthless hearts. You are just a major obstacle to her ascension. She will just kick you away. There is absolutely no other possibility."

I don’t know whether it was persuasion or provocation, but Zhu Wu fell silent after saying this.

Lu Ciyan shook his head, as if he had lost his soul and was only a body left. He instinctively defended Lu Shi, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that he was deceiving himself.

He was just shaking his head mechanically, muttering inaudibly, "No, no..."

He just repeated this action and this sentence.

The system standing in the cave looked out, its eyes full of pity, "Host, you are so cruel."

Lu Shi didn't reply, but just turned over silently.

"He looked like he was freezing to death and ran over here with no clothes on."

Lu Shi turned over again, staring straight at the ceiling of the cave.

"he……"

Lu Shi stood up irritably, scaring the system so much that it forgot what it hadn't finished saying.

She picked up a pen and paper, wrote a few lines, and threw them to the system, "Take it out to him!"

The system took the paper and ran out happily.

There was a rustling sound of footsteps, and Lu Ciyan looked up suddenly. When he saw that it was the system, the light that had just lit up in his eyes instantly went out.

The system handed him the paper in its hand and said, "This is what the master asked me to bring to you."

The cold wind made the system shiver, and it couldn't help but shrink its neck. It glanced at Lu Ciyan, whose face was as pale as paper, and advised him: "Go back quickly, it's too cold outside."

"Besides, the master won't come out."

Although my host seems to be soft-hearted, he can sometimes be very hard-hearted. This time it seems to be the latter.

However, the system didn't know why Lu Ciyan had been chasing his host through so many worlds. It was afraid that he was really using a beauty trap to confuse the host's mind.

Therefore, when the system saw that Lu Ciyan listened to its words and had no intention of leaving, it walked into the cave on its own.

The moment it entered the cave, the restriction at the door closed again.

Lu Ciyan picked up the paper with trembling fingertips.

"I have transformed myself into Qi Jin. I believe you already know that our relationship as master and disciple ended when you fed me that red fruit."

"You help me resolve the effects of the medicine, and I will help you break through to the Mahayana stage and protect you from the heavenly tribulation. The deal is done."

"After that, you can leave on your own, or you can stay at Xinglan Peak. I will still bear the title of your master, but please do not cling to me. We can just be strangers from now on."

He holds the title of Master, but not the true master and disciple...

The light paper seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, trembling as it fell from my fingertips. It was wet by the snow water beneath me, and the ink became a mess, making it difficult to distinguish the handwriting.

"It was me...I fed Master the Vermillion Fruit?"

There was no one else here, only Zhu Wu within him answered his doubts, "The one called Fu Chen cast a spell on you, manipulating you to pick the Vermillion Fruit and feed it to your master when she wasn't paying attention."

"It turns out...that's it."

Lu Ciyan has no memory of this.

He only knew that his master was not by his side when he was awake. Zhu Wu in his body told him that his master had taken the red fruit, which had aphrodisiac effects, and must have sex with someone to avoid exploding.

And since his master was kidnapped by Fu Chen, one can imagine what will happen to the two of them.

So he tried his best, killed the ancient tree at the cost of his life, and escaped.

He didn't expect that he would be the one who harmed his master.

No wonder... He told his master how much he loved him countless times during those seven days, but his master never said a word in response.

He thought his master was reserved and was too embarrassed to speak out.

I didn't expect that she didn't do it voluntarily.

In her eyes, it was just a deal, and he had forced it through trickery.

His master no longer wants him.

Lu Ciyan spat out a mouthful of blood and fell powerlessly in the snow. The snow soaked his clothes, but he didn't feel cold at all, as if his heart had become numb and he was like a walking corpse.

He slowly closed his eyes, losing all will to live.

He was suddenly covered with an outer robe. Lu Ciyan's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he became completely motionless.

Xu Chenjue picked him up and said with a pursed mouth, "Stubborn donkey."

He glanced at the forbidden cave and walked back.

The system breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally left."

"That male protagonist is quite stupid. If you, the host, hadn't sent a message, I don't know how long he would have stood there!"

Lu Shi closed his eyes and turned over, "You talk too much."
