My apprentice is a little weird?

"But what happened today made me change my mind."

Shen Ming looked at Jiang Yan with some complexity. Her teacher was always so smart and respected her from beginning to end.

And this is true for everyone.

He hardly ever asked anything of her, nor did he ever force anything upon her. He would choose to meet all her requests and would not delve into them further.

He does not have the ability to understand the inner voices of all things, but he can see through the hearts of everyone.

"Master..."

Jiang Yan reached out and grabbed Shen Ming, gently pulling her into his arms.

"Tell me slowly, there's no rush. In fact, even if you don't say it, I can guess something."

"Since I learned that you came from the abyss, I have been able to guess some of it."

"...Master...why don't you first tell me what you think..."

Shen Ming was silent for a moment, and simply stopped worrying and relaxed completely, no longer thinking about anything about herself, and gave everything to Jiang Yan. She just needed to enjoy the Master's arms to her heart's content.

Jiang Yan didn't care at all. He was his own disciple. If he didn't love him well, why would he expect others to love him well?

"First, if you can get out of the abyss, then you must be the hope of the whole village."

Shen Ming: ???

"Don't question it, put down your lofty thoughts, get close to your daily life, come, follow my way of thinking slowly."

"Your village is in a poor mountainous area. For thousands or even hundreds of years, no top scholar has ever left the mountain. Suddenly one day, you finally produced a top scholar."

"Master, I am a girl..."

"Don't interrupt!"

"Oh…"

"You have worked so hard to raise her. I will definitely devote all my efforts to giving you everything I can. I hope that one day you can lead everyone out of the mountain village."

"If you think about it this way, maybe your body was also created by them, and maybe your soul, not to mention your talent~"

Shen Ming subconsciously grabbed Jiang Yan, but the other party gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

"Just speak openly. There is no point in being afraid. So, you can ask me all your doubts and bugs, and I will argue with you."

Shen Ming was stunned. She...

"Uh...ok...ok..."

"Shen Ming wants to ask, why am I still alive? After all, I only had talent at the beginning. As for what Grandmaster Mu Jinhua said, there will be consequences if you kill me, I don't believe it..."

"After all, as you said before, Master, I am the only top scholar in the village. But since all my efforts have been poured into me, what consequences will my death have on the world? Doing this will also waste the hard work of the abyss, how great..."

slap~

Jiang Yan snapped his fingers.

"That's a good question. You are indeed my disciple, and you have great insight."

Shen Ming squinted happily, and then he was hit on the head.

“Good understanding, but useless”

"You have made another mistake based on basic common sense in the world of immortal cultivation."

Shen Ming pouted and said angrily: "I don't accept it!"

"Haha~ Not convinced? Let me ask you, why do the formation puppets and cloud mirror processors I made need the Xuanhun Shenshu as the core driver?"

"Because it is dead and has no soul"

"Why not create a soul?"

"How to create a soul? How is it possible to create a soul? Although some evil cultivators often take apart other people's souls and spirits and patch them up, doing so will be punished by heaven. If you do it too often, you may even attract punishment from heaven."

"That's right~ Souls cannot be created, this is common sense, right~"

Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Ming, just looking at him quietly.

Shen Ming was angry and unconvinced at first, but gradually he seemed to realize something, became shocked, and then a little bit unbelieving.

"Master...you...you can't be saying...my soul is...made..."

Jiang Yan held Shen Ming's hand tightly, letting her feel the warmth of his palm, but the words he spoke were so cold.

"No~really?"

"No... Impossible! How could I be created? I... Maybe I could be a creature from the abyss? Or maybe I could be the daughter or offspring of some creature. How could I be created?"

Jiang Yan's expression was gentle and he hugged Shen Ming tighter.

"I wasn't sure about this at first, but until I arrived in Lianshan City, I saw the power of heaven lingering in the passage opened by the former city god~"

"The punishment from the sky struck down mercilessly ~ very decisively, which proves that the way of heaven is very taboo about the abyss or anything that has anything to do with the abyss."

"If that's the case, how do you think you were able to escape the punishment from heaven after walking out of the abyss? Would heaven have mistaken you for someone else?"

"I have no idea…"

"The people in the abyss used unknown price to create a soul and body that fits in with this world, allowing her to avoid the supervision of the heavens. Then they gave her the ability to listen to the voices of all spirits, but did not give her the switch to turn it off~"

"Let her soul be drowned by the voices of all spirits, lose herself, and can only act according to some instructions given from the beginning~"

"As for what the instruction is, I think it should be this~"

Jiang Yan said, and then raised his right hand~

I saw that she was wearing a bright red bracelet on her wrist, which was an obvious match with the one on Shen Ming's wrist.

You have to know that he is his soul now. Even his clothes are conjured by him in his soul state. Shen Ming has no clothes at the moment.

But this ordinary bracelet was extremely stubbornly placed on them, locking them tightly like a shackle.

Seeing this, Shen Ming felt guilty and said in a low voice...

"Master...you already know everything...I'm sorry...I...I was too impatient at that time...so..."

Jiang Yan shook his head and chuckled magnanimously.

"Forget it, it's all in the past. At that time, you were not only affected by this bracelet, but also by another existence."

"It was because of 'it' that you forcibly connected my fate with yours..."

"Who...Who influenced me?"

Jiang Yan took a deep breath and then slowly looked up at the Lingtai sky blocked by the gray ball, and said with a dim gaze.

"Of course it's the way of heaven... Do you really think that you, who haven't even become an immortal, can connect our fates with a simple witch clan spell~"

"You can't even look directly at the thread of fate. You may not even be able to find it, so how can you connect the two..."

Jiang Yan gritted his teeth in hatred when he said this.

"I seriously suspect that my poor sense of direction is the result of the influence of the way of heaven!!"

"I'm a high-level monk! How could I be so directionally challenged that I can't even tell the difference between front, back, left, and right? I was clearly walking forward but ended up turning back to Lianshan City? F*ck me!!"

"This dog *heaven*! I *you*!"

Rumble~

A burst of thunder suddenly sounded in Shen Ming's mind, and a small thundercloud slowly rose above Jiang Yan's head.

The shadow of lightning inside is dim, exuding a powerful aura~

thump!

Jiang Yan knelt down decisively.

"Good luck to God, Father."
