Survive, the rules of rebirth for the villain witch

"long time no see!"

Xue Zun made a gesture of invitation.

The man walked into the private room, stood in front of Xue Zun and said, "Just now someone came downstairs to report that a customer specifically requested to use the Qinglian Land Fiery Spring to make tea. Since you dared to drink this tea, I guessed it was you, Xue Zun. I came over to take a look and didn't expect that it was really you who came to the ghost market."

Youhuang listened to the tone and address of the two people's conversation and knew that they were peers and had a good relationship, so he stood up and gave up his seat.

"I was out on business, and my disciple accidentally entered the ghost market, so I came here to look for him." Xue Zun glanced at You Huang and said, "I found him. I suddenly felt thirsty, so I thought of the good tea on your second floor, so I came here to ask for a pot. I didn't expect to meet you. Why don't we sit down and taste it together?"

"Only you can afford the tea brewed with the hot spring water from Qinglian Land." After the man said this, he sat in the place where Youhuang had sat. His eyes inadvertently fell on Youhuang who was kneeling behind Xue Zun.

"Huang'er, meet Senior Shi Mingrun!" Xue Zun turned his head slightly and said, "Senior Shi is one of the external stewards of Xuanji Sect. I met him because of tea."

"Junior Xue Youhuang greets Senior Shi!" There are not many people who can gain the favor of Xue Zun, and the two of them have such a close relationship. If I had ignored him in my previous life, I would have to stand up and salute him respectfully now.

"This is my new disciple Xue Youhuang."

Xue Zun introduced You Huang to his friend: "In addition to having good cultivation aptitude, he is also very good at making tea. You can try some later."

"You know I can't enjoy it, but you still say it. You are deliberately annoying me." Shi Mingjian said with a smile on his face: "It is boiled in the hot spring of Qinglian Land. No one except you dares to use it to make tea. No matter how good the tea is, I only smell it."

"I am tasting the fine tea, how can I let you watch me?" Xue Zun looked at You Huang and said, "Take out your tea leaves and boil a pot. Please let Senior Shi taste it."

"Master, I'll give my tea and tea sets to Senior Lu Shi..." You Huang hesitated and said, "I was in a hurry to go out this time, and I forgot to make these things. Master, why don't you take out your own tea and let me make it."

"You are so generous. You are reluctant to give such good tea to your teacher, but you are willing to give it all away..."

"Senior Lu saved my life, so why should I feel bad about giving him some tea?" You Huang interrupted Xue Zun and deliberately ridiculed him, "In the eyes of Master, is my disciple not as important as a few kilograms of tea?"

"Forget it, hurry up and make some tea." Xue Zun had no choice but to take out his tea and tea sets and said, "Make more, maybe they will come over soon."

"They?" Shi Mingjian thought for a moment and said with a smile, "There are friends traveling with you."

"They can't be considered friends, but temporary allies..." Xue Zun thought for a moment and said, "I owe one of them a favor. Now I am accompanying him to the center of the wasteland to find something, which can be regarded as repaying the favor."

"Who is this person?" Shi Mingjian was a little curious.

"Demon Lord Chi Jiong and his three subordinates." Xue Zun could not bear to hide who the people traveling with him were and the purpose of this trip.

"So it was them..." Shi Mingjian smiled and said, "I roughly know what he is looking for, but a few days ago, a group of people went in to look for treasures. What he is looking for may not be in the center of the wasteland. I suggest you go after attending the auction tomorrow. It won't be too late to go in if the thing is not taken out."

"What kind of good stuff is there to be auctioned that is worth you running to the wilderness to hold an auction?" Xue Zun asked casually, and Youhuang immediately pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

"The things auctioned at the ghost market are all of unknown origin. If you want to talk about good stuff..." Shi Mingjian deliberately kept it a secret, "I'm afraid the only thing that catches your eye is a broken sword brought out from the center of the wasteland. It looks like a relic of an ancient god."

"What value can a broken sword have?" You Huang asked disdainfully as he poured water into the copper pot.

"The broken sword itself is not valuable, but it is still very valuable in historical research." Shi Mingjian explained with a smile: "After all, the center of the wasteland was the main battlefield of the war between gods and demons 100,000 years ago. There are many unknown secrets hidden in it. Perhaps we can only slowly find them from these broken weapons."

"The main battlefield is in the depths of the wasteland, at the Three Sacred Mountains..." You Huang said thoughtfully, "Senior Shi, have you been to the center of the wasteland? Have you seen the three mountains?"

"My cultivation level is not enough to go to the center of the wasteland." Shi Mingjian raised the corner of his mouth and smiled gently, "It is said that the items auctioned this time were from several seniors in the Spiritualization Stage who had reached a bottleneck in their cultivation and were about to die. They ignored the advice of their family and friends and broke into the center of the wasteland to look for opportunities."

"Look for an opportunity..." You Huang said softly, "Don't learn from the old snake in the Dead Swamp, trying to fuse the blood of the foreign devil to improve your cultivation."

The matter of the aging snake was widely spread. Shi Mingjian smiled and said, "I have let go of the path of cultivation. Just let it go and don't force yourself."

"Letting things take their course is also a way of life." You Huang smiled and said, "Senior, you can think this way, which is better than many people. I believe your achievements will be far beyond the Spiritual Transformation Stage."

"Your disciple is really good at talking. Listening to her makes me feel like I'm a genius in cultivation." Shi Mingjian took a closer look at Youhuang. Although half of her face was covered, judging from the outline, she should be a very beautiful girl.

"Junior brother Youhuang, how old are you today…" Shi Mingjian did not see any signs of time in Youhuang's eyes or face, and could not help but ask out of curiosity.

"To reply, Senior Shi, I am seventeen years old this year and have reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage." You Huang answered habitually, but Shi Mingjian seemed to have suffered a huge blow. The smile on his face froze. After a long while, he turned his head stiffly and cast a questioning look at Qu Xue Zun.

"To be my Lan Jinluo's true disciple, you must have something extraordinary." Xue Zun did not blame his disciple for being too arrogant, but explained it as a matter of course.

“You…” Shi Mingjian finally sighed, “Over the years, I have gradually accepted the fact that I cannot beat you. I didn’t expect you to bring your apprentice to annoy me. How can I cultivate naturally and believe that my achievements will not be limited to the Spiritual Transformation Stage?”

"If you believe in yourself, you will definitely succeed." You Huang said without hesitation, "Just like when I first became a disciple, my master asked me to defeat Jiuying in the Spiritualization Stage within three years. After receiving the task, I also felt that it was impossible to complete it."

"What happened next?" Shi Mingjian asked with some anticipation.

"Later, I set a training plan for myself: the first step is to find out the difference in strength between myself and the Nine Infants in the Spiritualization Stage."

"What is the second step?" Shi Mingjian asked.

"I must fill my stomach first, and then go fight Jiuying."

Ran Hai's annoying voice came again. When he looked up, he saw Demon Lord standing outside the door with Ran Hai and Lian Chi.
