Cheng Shuyan never understood why it was more beneficial for Wu Yuelan to hold Li Zhiyi, the pride of the family and the future hope of the Li family, as a hostage.

But she chose Cheng Shuyan.

Only after Master Wuwei said this did she understand.

The fact that she and Wuwei Zhenren lived in Li Zhixing's house before was no secret, and the Li family would find out as soon as they checked.

Regardless of whether Wu Yuelan went to the Li family to cause trouble in the end, Li Zhixing was a hidden danger to them. Given the temper of the Li family's ancestor, he would probably choose to kill Li Zhixing to eliminate future troubles.

After Wu Yuelan's death, if the Li family wanted to track down Li Zhixing's whereabouts, they would definitely think of the two of them first.

This will only increase the risk of Li Zhixing being exposed and the danger to the Hidden World Sect.

So Wu Yuelan chose to use her last life to turn the Li family upside down and even kidnap her, making the Li family think that Wu Yuelan was ungrateful and that Master Wuwei would definitely not tolerate her behavior.

In this way, Cheng Shuyan became the victim, and Li Zhixing would be much safer if he followed them, master and disciple.

After all, the Li family would never have thought that Wu Yuelan would dare to hand over her son to Wuwei Zhenren and Cheng Shuyan, who were her "enemies".

It is true that parents always think about their children until they die.

……

After crying for a while, Li Zhixing's condition was obviously much better.

Expressions began to appear on his face, showing sadness over his mother's death, guilt towards Master Wuwei and Cheng Shuyan, and shame for having just cried in front of them.

After calming himself down, he solemnly knelt before Master Wuwei and said, "Senior, as a son, I must avenge my parents' blood feud. I beg you to promise that I will be prudent and will not implicate any innocent members of the Li family."

Wuwei Zhenren looked at him with some relief in his eyes: "My Yinshi Sect has always adhered to the principle of non-action. As long as you don't do anything that harms the world or goes against the right path, you can do whatever you want.

As for revenge, as long as you don't harm innocent people, I won't interfere. So, are you willing to become my disciple?"

"Disciple Li Zhixing, I pay my respects to Master!"

"Good! Good! Good! Xiao Shuyan, you have a little junior brother now, are you happy?"

Master Wuwei said three good words in a row, which shows that he really likes his disciple Li Zhixing.

He is resourceful, courageous, mentally tough, and can adjust his mentality in a short time.

It is not easy for him to achieve this at such a young age.

As for aptitude, Master Wuwei does not value these. He himself has the aptitude of three spiritual roots, and his master has never despised him for his poor aptitude.

Cheng Shuyan hurriedly helped Li Zhixing up and replied, "Of course I'm happy. Congratulations, Master, on having a beloved disciple."

She said this sincerely, but after hearing it, Wuwei Zhenren leaned close to her ear and said awkwardly:

"Xiao Shuyan, don't be jealous. In my heart, none of the three of them can compare to you."

Li Zhixing couldn't help but smile when he heard what Wuwei Zhenren said: "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will definitely not be able to surpass you."

Cheng Shuyan: ???

Is she really that mean, or is she just acting mean?

……

"Disciples, the master is back!"

Outside the Hidden World Sect, Immortal Wuwei stood with his hands on his hips and shouted at the broken wooden door.

"Come back if you want. Why are you howling at the door? Come in quickly, aren't you embarrassed enough?"

It was still that powerful female voice, and Cheng Shuyan felt that this scene was inexplicably familiar.

Li Zhixing was stunned when he saw the tattered wooden door in front of him and the crumbling "Hidden World Sect" plaque above his head.

However, he asked more tactfully than Cheng Shuyan did at the beginning: "Master, do I still have a chance to take revenge?"

This sect didn't seem very reliable no matter how he looked at it, and for the first time he began to doubt himself.

Could he have been abducted by human traffickers?

Or was it because of what Wuwei Zhenren had laid out before, that he had too high expectations of the Hidden World Sect?

"Junior Brother." Cheng Shuyan patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "When judging people and things, one should not look at them superficially. No matter how magnificent they are, they are only external possessions. What is important is to cultivate oneself."

Then he laughed loudly, pushed open the gate, and hugged Jiang Hongyue who was about to open the door.

"Senior Sister, I miss you so much!"

Jiang Hongyue hugged her back, and the two of them jumped and spun around.

"Oh, Xiao Shuyan, Senior Sister misses you so much too!"

Wuwei Zhenren said to Li Zhixing, who was stunned, "Well, that's good. Your senior sister's ideological awareness has improved a lot!"

Then he ran towards the chicken coop.

"Qinglin, my dear son, Master misses you so much!"

Ji Qinglin ruthlessly pushed her away.

"Brother, sister, let me introduce you. This is Li Zhixing, our junior fellow apprentice."

Seeing that Li Zhixing was still standing there in a daze, Cheng Shuyan hurriedly pulled him over and introduced him to Jiang Hongyue and Ji Qinglin.

"Zhixing, this is our senior brother Ji Qinglin, and this is our senior sister Jiang Hongyue."

"Hello, Senior Brother and Senior Sister." Li Zhixing bowed quickly.

Ji Qinglin stopped feeding the chickens and said, "Junior brother? Very good, I accept it."

Jiang Hongyue glanced at Li Zhixing, then at Master Wuwei: "Old man, you're not kidding me, are you? It was fine that you kidnapped my junior sister, but you kidnapped a child this young? Do you still have a conscience?"

Li Zhixing's eyes suddenly filled with tears. Senior sister understood him!!!

He said that he must have been abducted by human traffickers!

"Hahaha, Senior Sister, you've wronged Master. I was the one who kidnapped Junior Brother first."

"Ah! So it turns out that this is the little junior brother that our junior sister personally selected and brought back to me? No wonder he is so adorable!"

Ji Qinglin on the side cast a look of contempt.

Master Wuwei covered his face and denounced Jiang Hongyue's double standard behavior.

Li Zhixing was left disheveled in the wind.

"Let's go, ignore them, and come with me to kill a chicken. We'll have chicken tonight."

Ji Qinglin came over with the chicken he had just caught, patted him on the shoulder, and brought his wandering thoughts back to reality.

"Big Brother, you're biased! Why didn't I get any chicken when I came here? I've been here for so long and I haven't had any chicken!"

Cheng Shuyan was disgusted when he heard this and immediately shouted that Ji Qinglin was biased.

Ji Qinglin turned around and gave her a slap on the face. "It's your own bad luck that the chickens weren't even bred when you came! You heartless little thing, besides not having the chicken to eat, what delicious food did I not share with you?"

"I don't care, I don't care. You have to compensate me! Only if you give me ten servings of Zuixianlou's signature dishes can I calm down!"

"Yes, yes, yes, you have to give me ten of them, then I will let my junior sister forgive you!"

"And me, I want ten too!"

Jiang Hongyue and Wuwei Zhenren also joined in the fun.

Ji Qinglin snorted coldly, but his eyes were full of smiles: "I'll let the three of you die."

Watching this scene and feeling the warmth from Ji Qinglin's hand on his shoulder, Li Zhixing felt a surge of bitterness in his heart and tears gradually appeared in his eyes.

so good!

Just let it go, it's fine this way.

He thought silently in his heart.
