Embers

Ye Bozhou never thought in the previous nine years that one day, his favorite little apprentice would draw his sword against him.

But maybe it can also be explained as an accident, because Ember's breath at this time is really too weird, as if she had felt it somewhere before.

Ye Bozhou had never seen such a situation before, and while secretly frightened, he had to quickly dodge Ember's attack.

The swordsmanship of the person in front of him was messy and unstable, but the impact was very destructive, as if the little apprentice he was familiar with changed overnight.

But the abilities of the two are still different after all.

Ember has been learning magic skills behind everyone's back, and the fire is not yet ready, and she often makes mistakes in some places, so her internal skills are still very unstable.

But Ye Bozhou is already a top-notch expert who can confront Nie Budu, so it is not difficult to suppress him.

Even if Ye Bozhou didn't draw his sword at all.

Ember's wrist was firmly held by Ye Bozhou, and she struggled vigorously, trying to attack Ye Bozhou with her limbs disobedient.

Ye Bozhou hugged him firmly in his arms with all his strength, then grabbed his sword and smashed it to pieces with his internal force!

"I taught you swordsmanship so that you can attack me!"

At this time, Ye Bozhou was unscathed and did not become embarrassed by his attack, but the expression on his face was sullen like never before.

Hearing this, Ember finally regained her sanity bit by bit, and slowly stopped moving.

Ye Bozhou breathed a sigh of relief, and felt warm liquid dripping on his arm.

When I raised my hand, it turned out to be blood!

Turning Ember over to look, the boy's lip has been bitten open, blood dripping down the corner of his mouth.

Ye Bozhou felt his heart twitch violently.

Ember's face was as pale as paper, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Ye Bozhou's face: "Master...I...I didn't mean to..."

Ye Bozhou didn't speak.Of course he knew, how could his Jin'er attack him!

However, another extremely bad premonition spread rapidly in his heart, making him feel restless and anxious.

She grabbed Ember's wrist, tapped his pulse lightly with her fingers, and her expression changed drastically!

This kind of pulse does not belong to Xiaxianmen's martial arts at all, nor does it belong to his Jieyou swordsmanship.

The path of this vein is strange and arrogant, rather like... the kung fu of the Devil's Cult.

He suddenly remembered, wasn't it just four years ago, he had fought against Nie Budu at that martial arts conference.And the aura brought by Nie Budu at that time was exactly the same as that of Ember now!

His heart sank a little bit.

Ember looked up and saw his face, and knew that everything was over.

After a while, Ye Bozhou spoke with a livid face.

"I need your explanation."

Ember took a step back, his lips were still trembling slightly, but there was no expression on his face.

"I am the child of the Qiao family whose family was exterminated in Chengtian 25 years ago. My real name is not Ember, but Qiao Chuyang."

Ye Bozhou's eyes widened in disbelief: "What? Not all of Qiao's family..."

Ember interrupted him in a low voice: "No, it was the Devil's Cult that made Qianji Pavilion fake. When Nie Budu wiped out my entire sect, there were two people left behind, one was me, and the other was my elder brother Qiao Chuhe."

Ye Bozhou was extremely shocked.

He didn't expect that Qianji Pavilion, which was the most authoritative in Jianghu, had secretly colluded with the Demon Cult nine years ago!

He even didn't expect that Ember turned out to be Qiao Chuyang, the young son of the Qiao family!

No wonder he hates Nie Budu so much, no wonder he never mentions his own life experience, that's how it is!

While he was shocked, he suddenly felt unspeakable panic in his heart. He always felt that what Ember would say next might completely overturn everything he saw, and make everything completely out of control!

He wanted to stop him, but his body was already frozen in place and he couldn't control it at all.

Ember had no time to care about his thoughts, and continued: "Back then, Nie Budu killed my family members just to find a copy of the "Wrong Flower Heart Sutra", but later found out that it wasn't at my house. "

After a pause, he continued: "Nie Budu finally left us two brothers. One was taken by him to the Demon Sect to be his male favorite, and the other was asked to sneak into the Xiaxian Gate and steal the "Wrong Flower Heart Sutra."

Ember's voice was a little stiff: "...The reason why I was able to meet you and become your apprentice was all a long-planned plan."

Ye Bozhou felt that a certain part of his heart had completely collapsed, even his breathing began to tingle, the chill spread from his limbs to his whole body, his mind went blank, and his body was trembling almost imperceptibly.

"why?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that his voice was already so hoarse.

"Because Nie Budu threatened me with my elder brother's life. I was supposed to be Nie Budu's male favourite, but elder brother asked to replace me."

After saying this, Ember raised her head and glanced at Ye Bozhou, suddenly feeling as if all her strength had been sucked out.

He looked like he was about to cry.

That 31-year-old man, that old man who looked as good as a painting, stood there with a gray face, so sad that he seemed to be able to shed tears in an instant.

Ember knelt down in front of him.

Ye Bozhou's mouth trembled.

"...why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Ember lowered her head and didn't speak.

Ye Bozhou slowed down for a while, squatted down and raised his chin, and smiled: "Jin'er, this is all a trick for you to fool your master, right? Look at you...you are so big and you still treat your master like this..."

Ember closed her eyes: "It's all true."

……

a long time.

Ye Bozhou laughed suddenly, let go of him, got up, staggered back, until there was no way to retreat behind the wall, he leaned against the wall, laughing so hard that he couldn't breathe.

"Stupid, stupid! Qiao Chuyang, I, Ye Bozhou, are not worthy to be your master! I am the most stupid person in the world, yet I was deceived by the closest person for nine years! Hahahaha..."

After laughing for an unknown amount of time, he finally stopped, raised his hand slowly, and covered his eyes.

Ember also experienced for the second time in her life what life is worse than death.

"Master..."

Ye Bozhou's shoulders shook violently, and he laughed in a tone worse than crying: "Don't call me master, I'm so stupid, I don't deserve to be your master!"

His words were like stabbing a knife in Ember's heart, ruthlessly and accurately, dripping with blood.

Ember staggered to her feet, stumbled in front of him, and pressed him against the wall with all her strength.

"Don't you want to know what's going on with the magic power on my body?"

Ye Bozhou let him press him without moving, slowly took his hands off his eyes, and looked at him with a smile: "All ears."

His eye sockets were still red, but the corners of his mouth were raised.

Ember didn't dare to touch him again, and could only look into his eyes.

"Because I practiced after stealing the "Wrong Flower Heart Sutra"."

Ye Bozhou blinked.

"If I gave the book directly to Nie Budu, he might not let us go, and he might even kill me to silence him. If I don't give it to him, he will take revenge and save the elder brother when he becomes a magician!"

Ye Bozhou twitched the corner of his mouth: "What about me?"

In everything you have planned, can you leave room for me?Or, in your eyes, I am just a useless chess piece?

"I'm taking you away!"

Ember also began to hoarse: "I'll take you away if I rescue elder brother! Let's live in seclusion in a place where no one knows us, and spend the rest of our lives together there, until we die of old age!"

Ye Bozhou just looked at him like that, without saying anything.

Ember stared straight at him, only feeling a sharp pain in her chest.

"I've made a plan, whether you agree or not, I will take you away! No matter what happens to others!"

Ye Bozhou still didn't say a word.

Ember saw something colliding fiercely in his eyes.

"We've already been married...you are my wife now, you can only follow me..."

"..."

"...You said it yourself, we are husband and wife, there is no doubt about love and affection..."

"..."

"I... can't do without you..."

Ye Bozhou still didn't say a word.

His blood cooled down little by little, and the hand pressing Ye Bozhou's chest also began to slide down slowly.

Ye Bozhou lowered his eyes slightly, only to see a swarthy head pressed against his chest.

"Master...my chest hurts..."

"..."

No matter what kind of injuries he suffered during martial arts training, or how badly he was injured during the fight with Zheng Yijun, Ember never said a word of pain to Ye Bozhou.

With just this one sentence, Ye Bozhou was completely defeated and surrendered.

Ember's heart was as dead as ashes, and when she was about to leave him, her whole body was surrounded by a pair of hands.

Looking up in disbelief, Ye Bozhou sighed softly on top of his head, and hugged his arm even harder.

"...Bad boy, do you know that Master hurts a hundred times, a thousand times more than you..."

A hot tear fell down and landed on the top of Ember's head.
