My Taoist partner has turned evil, but I can continue to become stronger

Chapter 31 Junior Sister's Speculation

"Junior sister, well, that's about it, you've been hugging me for almost half a quarter of an hour."

Lu Xuan looked at Liu Mengyao who was still hugging him tightly, and couldn't help but remind her softly.

“I’m sorry, my brother’s embrace was so comfortable that I forgot myself for a moment.

Mengyao didn't mean that, I just felt very warm, Brother, you won't blame me, right?"

Liu Mengyao reluctantly withdrew from Lu Xuan's arms, then she looked up at Lu Xuan, lightly tapped her two fingers together, with an apologetic expression.

"Junior sister, you are too kind. How could I blame you for something like this? It's better to say that I owe you too much."

Looking at her cautious look, Lu Xuan just found it a little funny. He raised his hand and rubbed her head, then took out a Qiankun bag from his arms.

"Others have offered you such good conditions, but I only agreed to do you a small favor. I feel really bad about it.

This little bit of stuff is the deposit that my senior brother gave you. We will split the profits 50-50."

"But didn't you spend all your savings a long time ago?"

Liu Mengyao weighed the heavy Qiankun bag in her hand and frowned in confusion. Then she noticed the golden lotus mark on Lu Xuan's collar.

"The silk feather coat from Miaohuafang? This piece of clothing costs tens of thousands of spirit stones. Where did you get the spare money to buy such an impractical item, brother?"

Turning her head slightly, Liu Mengyao's eyes gradually became empty. She suspected that Lu Xuan had sold his body to some old woman in exchange for these things.

If they really wanted to sell it, couldn't they just come to me? At this level, even if she added several times the price, she could still afford it.

"Well, this dress was forced upon me by my master. You, Junior Sister, know how much she cares about me.

This feather robe was originally intended to be given to me as a birthday gift.

The things in this Qiankun bag are also the start-up capital that Master gave me after hearing that I wanted to do business in the sect."

Lu Xuan explained with some difficulty. He suddenly felt a strong sense of shame for mentioning his master in front of his idolizing junior sister.

In the past, in Liu Mengyao's eyes, he was a handsome, gentle and reliable senior brother, and Lu Xuan himself thought so too.

But now, after being toyed with by Fan Qianyue several times, his self-perception has changed, and his every move is just an effort to maintain his previous personality.

Even though other people's opinions of him have not changed, Lu Xuan feels that he has fallen and can never go back to the way he was before.

"So that's how it is. I haven't heard much about Senior Brother Lu's master."

Hearing this, Liu Mengyao's eyes regained their spirit. She thought that her senior brother was already not clean, but luckily it was just a false alarm.

But would a normal master give his disciple such an expensive and luxurious gift? This is obviously a bit too much.
A woman's intuition told Liu Mengyao that things seemed not to be over yet.

"Brother, can you tell me more about your master? I remember that you are a disciple of Feiyue Peak.

That peak master is Elder Fan Qianyue. She occasionally manages the sect's Criminal Law Hall. She seems to be a very strict person."

Liu Mengyao narrowed her eyes and asked Lu Xuan with an innocent curiosity.

"Well, Master is indeed quite strict, whether it is the way she disciplined me since I was a child or in other aspects."

When Lu Xuan thought of the wax dripping punishment he suffered before coming out of Fan Qianyue's cave, the corner of his eye twitched involuntarily.

Is Master's XP originally so strange, or has it become a little distorted because of his service in the Criminal Law Hall?
"Senior Brother, have you followed Elder Fan Qianyue since you were a child?"

Liu Mengyao was a little surprised, which reminded her of something bad. Some powerful monks, on a whim, would occasionally learn a marriage custom from mortals, select good seedlings, and slowly cultivate them from a young age.

Their relationship on the surface is master and disciple, but they have done everything behind the scenes, and when the time is right, they will directly become Taoist companions.

Could it be that this is the case with my senior brother?

"Yes, my master has been very strict with me since I was a child. He wouldn't let me leave Feiyue Peak before I established my foundation.

If I didn’t have my senior sister, Ningyan, to keep me company every day, I would have gotten sick sooner or later.”

Recalling the good old days when he and Xia Ningyan spent time together on Feiyue Peak, Lu Xuan's lips curled up slightly and a smile appeared on his face.

"I see. That does sound very strict. Brother, you must be having a hard time too."

Looking at Lu Xuan's happy expression, Liu Mengyao immediately overturned her associative guesses, if her senior brother and his master really had that kind of relationship.

It would be impossible for him to become a Taoist couple with Xia Ningyan in the future. It is a completely contradictory situation.

Otherwise, the person who had been cultivated as his Taoist partner since childhood would have fallen in love with his most promising disciple, Fan Qianyue, who was in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

How could this be allowed to happen?
Anyway, if this kind of thing happened to Liu Mengyao, she would be so betrayed that her state of mind would probably be distorted.

This is just like your beloved husband cheating on you with your most trusted and best friend; it is absolutely unforgivable!
Liu Mengyao would definitely torture them both and let them experience the feeling of betrayal.

"Junior sister, junior sister?"

Lu Xuan, who was standing aside, looked at Liu Mengyao who was in a daze and couldn't help but call out softly.

Liu Mengyao had mentioned before that she had a problem with her mind wandering, so he didn't think much about it and just thought that her mind had drifted to who knows where again.

"Sorry, Brother, I'm suddenly lost in thought again."

Liu Mengyao came back to her senses, she looked at Lu Xuan and sorted out the distracting thoughts in her mind.

“It was only after I heard about my senior brother’s past that I suddenly wanted to know what he was like when he was a child.

I can’t see it, and I always feel a little regretful.”

However, in just a short moment, Liu Mengyao gave a reasonable explanation, but it was also her true feelings.

She was indeed very interested in Lu Xuan's appearance as a child.

"What did I look like when I was a child? I don't remember much myself. Maybe Master has recorded something with the Mysterious Shadow Stone?"

Speaking of the Xuanying Stone, Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

Now he was almost having a stress reaction to this thing.

On the other side, in a closed secret room in Fan Qianyue's cave,
I saw a sturdy Tiangong cabinet with several rows of crystal blue Xuanying stones neatly arranged in it and placed on a soft cushion, well preserved.

Fan Qianyue himself sat on the armchair opposite, tasting the Blood Spirit Wine in his hand while activating the images in the Mysterious Shadow Stone one by one and watching quietly.

She recorded every period of Lu Xuan's growth.

Every year on Lu Xuan’s birthday, she would use a black shadow stone to record the most beautiful scene of the day.

By now, there are more than twenty of them, filling up most of the cabinet.

This year is the most special year for Fan Qianyue. She looked at the two black shadow stones in her hands, and her red lips slightly raised.
