Are all the love-brained villains my apprentices?

"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?"

Lin Wenyu sat down with a playful smile and started to look through the ancient books here.

"You can come to me if you have nothing to do, but Immortal Venerable Wen Yu, you usually come here for something."

Chen Kai spoke the truth, but it rarely choked Lin Wenyu.

But who is Lin Wenyu? This level of embarrassment is nothing to her.

Lin Wenyu put the ancient book back on the table.

"Well, I've finished reading those ancient books, and I'm asking you to return them to you."

As she spoke, she took out the ancient book that Chen Kai had given her last time from the space.

In fact, Yayin had finished reading it a long time ago, but Chen Kai had been in seclusion at that time, so Yayin didn't find a suitable opportunity to return it to Chen Kai, so he kept it with himself.

Just now, Lin Wenyu specially went back to Lingyun Peak to ask Yayin for these ancient books.

Chen Kai took the ancient books from Lin Wenyu with great care, picked up the top one and flipped through it. After confirming that the ancient books were well preserved, he carefully put them away.

Lin Wenyu watched Chen Kai's actions.

"Besides that, I actually have something I want to talk to you about."

Chen Kai showed an expression of "as expected" and put his hands behind his back.

"Just let Immortal Venerable Wen Yu speak."

"Have you ever seen this thing?"

Lin Wenyu took out the jade pendant that dropped from the stall owner last time and placed it in front of Chen Kai.

"What jade pendant...?"

When Chen Kai's gaze came into contact with the strange pattern on the jade pendant, his expression changed from calm to shock.

Chen Kai picked up the jade pendant and looked at the pattern on it carefully, as if he wanted to engrave the pattern in his mind.

When Lin Wenyu saw Chen Kai's look, she knew that she had found the right person this time.

He didn't disturb Chen Kai, but just waited quietly for Chen Kai to calm down.

After a while, Chen Kai reluctantly took his eyes off the jade pendant.

"Where did Immortal Venerable Wen Yu get this jade pendant?"

"From a man who tries to suck the soul out of others."

Lin Wenyu's face was calm, and she was observing Chen Kai's expression while saying this.

When Chen Kai heard the word "soul", he closed his eyes reluctantly, as if he had anticipated this result.

"You recognize the pattern here, right?"

Although it was a question, Lin Wenyu's tone was very affirmative.

Chen Kai put the jade pendant back to its original place, but his eyes were still on the pattern on it.

"Yes, of course I know him."

Chen Kai recounted a memory hidden deep in his heart.

--------

At that time, he was still a disciple in Wenxiu Pavilion.

Chen Kai learned from the old Pavilion Master Wen Xiu and was the old Pavilion Master's direct disciple.

Besides him, the old Pavilion Master has two other disciples.

One is the old Pavilion Master’s biological daughter, Pu Mingli.

The other is the Decayed Star who was adopted by the old Pavilion Master.

So even though Chen Kai is the eldest senior brother, he is the last one to enter Wenxiu Pavilion.

However, although he was the last to enter the cabinet, they got along quite well with each other.

One day, Chen Kai was called to a place by the old Pavilion Master alone and told him a story.

Since the day Pu Mingli was born, the old Pavilion Master spent thirty years of his own life to calculate Pu Mingli's fortune. The fortune showed that Pu Mingli had a great disaster in his life.

Over the years, the old Pavilion Master made many calculations before he finally figured out the exact month in which the disaster would occur, which was May of this year.

Although Wen Xiu Pavilion’s rules are not to interfere in the fate of others, when disaster really befalls one’s loved ones, who can remain indifferent?

So the old Pavilion Master handed Pu Mingli over to Chen Kai, and asked him not to let Pu Mingli leave Wenxiu Pavilion at least for the month of May.

The old Pavilion Master planned to hide this from other people in the Pavilion and wanted to resolve this disaster for Pu Mingli.

Because this matter was against the rules of Wenxiu Pavilion, the old Pavilion Master felt guilty and planned to resign from the position of Pavilion Master after this incident and pass the position to Chen Kai.

If it weren't for the fact that this matter required someone to look after Pu Mingli and let her try her best to avoid some risks, the old Pavilion Master originally planned to keep this matter buried in his heart.

"Kai'er, I'm giving you the choice now."

The old Pavilion Master finally said these words to Chen Kai.

Although Chen Kai has always strictly followed the pavilion rule of not interfering with the fate of others, when the disaster really happened to his junior sister, Chen Kai still hesitated.

Although Pu Mingli is his junior sister, after so many years of getting along with her, he also regards her as his own family member, and naturally does not want her to get into trouble.

In the end, selfishness prevailed over Chen Kai's reason.

“Master, I…promise.

But there is one thing I don’t understand, why is it me?”

Chen Kai was confused.

In terms of close relationship, Xiuxing, as the adopted son of the old Pavilion Master, is actually more suitable than him.

The old Pavilion Master did not explain too much, he just sighed and said.

"Xiuxing's child's temperament is... not suitable."

Then the old Pavilion Master looked at Chen Kai eagerly and changed the subject.

"Mingli is a restless kid, so I'll leave her to you."

Chen Kai nodded in agreement.

"Only you and I know what happened today. Don't tell anyone else."

The old Pavilion Master gave his final instructions.

May is here soon.

The old Pavilion Master found an excuse and left Wenxiu Pavilion.

Others just thought that the old cabinet leader wanted to calculate the stars, but only Chen Kai knew the inside story of this matter.

Although the old Pavilion Master repeatedly told Pu Mingli to practice in seclusion for a month and not to go out and make trouble before leaving.

But Pu Mingli had been spoiled since he was a child, so he was naturally not afraid of the old Pavilion Master. Facing the old Pavilion Master's repeated instructions, he only obeyed on the surface. After the old Pavilion Master left, his mind could not be idle.

At the beginning, Chen Kai could still use the title of Old Pavilion Master to intimidate Pu Mingli, but as time passed, the title of Old Pavilion Master was no longer so effective.
