Chapter 32
"All these years that I've been searching for you, I've always thought,
If I find you,
I will definitely not let you go. "Shangyi looked at Qin Jiao.
His gaze was fixed.
You, your Buddhist Dao,
Your Shizun,
Your All Living Things and Jade Buddha Sect! "Qin Jiao's eyes were filled with panic, not daring to look at him.
"With distracting thoughts, how can I pray to Buddha? Without sincerity,
How can I dare to accept Shizun's expectations? I am no longer a member of Jade Buddha Sect to find you. As for all living things in this world, they all have their own fate.
I can't even protect you.
Why talk about all these? "
"You actually left Jade Buddha Sect, are you crazy or stupid?" Qin Jiao couldn't believe what he had heard.
"Jade Buddha Sect rules.
The disciples of the sect who are greedy for the mortal world will be expelled. "He then smiled at Qin Jiao," Lianlian, you have to take me in. "
"What does it have to do with me!"
Although his tone was firm, there was a trace of guilt in it.
"Back then, a certain little purple bamboo shoot made a promise to me.
She said,
If I was expelled from Jade Buddha Mountain,
She would definitely take me in. "
"At that time, I was just a little demon and didn't know."
I didn't know anything, "Qin Jiao defended herself.
"Don't talk about age. Everyone knows that demon cultivators have spiritual intelligence before they can transform. Why, do you want to deny it?"
Qin Jiao only felt that this monk had become a demon!
He was no longer that easy to fool and obedient person. Thinking of the past …
"Shangyi, Shangyi, why is Shizun punishing you when you are injured?"
The little bamboo shoot demon looked at the person kneeling in front of the Buddha statue with tears in her eyes.
Looking at the little girl who was not even as tall as her kneeling body, Shang Yi's heart softened as she said, "Since you have made a mistake, you have to accept the punishment." After saying that, she reached out to wipe her tears and touched the two little buns on her head that were tied with Jade Spirit Flowers.
"Can't I not punish him?"
Little Bamboo Monster thought, 'Last time when I dirtied Shangyi's Buddhist scriptures and did something bad, Shangyi did not punish me. Why did Shangyi kill a devil cultivator and do a good deed, yet Master still punished me?'
No matter how much the little bamboo shoot monster thought about it, she could not understand.
"If I don't punish him, I'm afraid that Shangyi will be banished from this Jade Buddha Mountain." Shangyi was in a good mood as he teased Little Bamboo Demon.
"So the Jade Buddha Sect will chase us out!" The Little Bamboo Demon who had grown up in the Jade Buddha Sect felt a shock in her heart.
"Of course it's possible." Shangyi was amused by her changing expressions.
"Don't be afraid. When the Lianlian grows up, if Shangyi is driven out, the Lianlian will take Shangyi in." At that time, the Little Bamboo Demon, who had just turned seventy years old and was still a little bean, made a promise to the Jade Buddha Sect's Half Immortal Shangyi, who was five thousand years old.
Qin Jiao hated herself for being naive when she was young. That was why she was coaxed by this' old monk 'to make so many promises. She regretted her past, regretted her past …
“
Good Lianlian, I know that you're a demon who keeps her promises. "Shangyi patted her head.
Qin Jiao: Can I say that I'm not …
"You just don't chase me out."
"I didn't chase you out." Qin Jiao decided to deny it and change the situation.
"Oh ~ Then I must have remembered wrongly."
Qin Jiao, who had already prepared how to refute him, was speechless.
"Good girl, this time I really have something to ask of you."
"Oh ~ What is it? Why would an 'expert' like you, who is at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, ask a 'small trash' like me for help?"
Qin Jiao did not admit that she was envious of his cultivation level.
"No matter how high my cultivation level is now, it can't be compared to a seventh-grade alchemy genius like you." Shangyi was naturally familiar with her temper.
Although Qin Jiao's cultivation level was ordinary in the past, she could really be called an 'alchemy genius' in alchemy. Compared to those alchemy Immortal Supremacies, although she was only at the lower seventh-grade, this was already the limit of her cultivation level.
Alchemy was not only related to one's talent in alchemy, it was also restricted by the cultivator's cultivation level. To be precise, it was closely related to the cultivator's soul.
Alchemy masters needed a strong enough soul to be the foundation for the alchemy process.
No matter how outstanding one's talent was, without the support of a strong soul, it was impossible to complete alchemy.
Qin Jiao's talent was already enough for her to become an eighth-grade alchemy master. Unfortunately, her cultivation time was too short and she did not have a strong enough soul to support it.
This was also the reason why Shangyi was willing to let her go in the end.
After all, there were very few seventh-grade alchemy masters in the Sao Ruo Continent, and she was temporarily unable to advance because of her cultivation level.
More importantly, she was only a little over three thousand years old.
In the Sao Ruo Continent, the cultivators were easily over ten thousand years old. She was really too young and had too many possibilities in the future.
Almost no one was willing to offend a high-level alchemy master. However, they did not expect that such an accident would happen.
Although her cultivation level was only at the third level of Qi Refining, her seventh-grade alchemy master's talent was branded on her soul. She just needed to slowly raise her cultivation level.
"Hmph ~ At least you understand." Qin Jiao followed the 'ladder' he gave her and walked down.
"It's just that my cultivation level is too low now, so I can't refine many pills." Qin Jiao was really sad when she thought of this. Alchemy was one of the rare things that she really liked, and it was not a technique that she cultivated to save her life.
Shang Yi felt a stab of pain in her heart when she saw Lin Mengya's downcast mood.
When had his Lianlian ever been sad about the hardships of alchemy …
"Don't be afraid. I'm here, aren't I? Besides, there's also the water spirit. It's only a matter of time before your cultivation level recovers. Very soon ~ Lianlian, be good ~" Shangyi coaxed her softly.
Qin Jiao, who was suddenly pulled into Shangyi's arms, was shocked.
!
!
"Of course I'll recover soon. Let go of me ~" Qin Jiao struggled to get out of his arms.
Looking at Qin Jiao in his arms with her delicate red face, Shangyi felt like his heart was about to melt. He reached out and hugged the struggling Qin Jiao tightly and said softly, "Lianlian, I haven't hugged you for more than two thousand years."
Hearing his words, Qin Jiao stopped struggling.
After a long time, Shangyi heard, "When I asked you to leave, you really did. When I asked you to return to the Jade Buddha Sect, you never left the mountain again …"
"When I asked you to leave me alone, you really didn't care about me for two thousand years … I thought you really wouldn't care about me anymore …" Her voice was full of grievance.
"Lianlian, I didn't leave the Cave of Illusions. I was always by your side.
During the two thousand years on Jade Buddha Mountain, I used the Soul Transferring Technique to come to your side every month and stay with you for half a day.
Lianlian, how could I bear to leave you alone?
“
"Then why didn't I feel it?" Qin Jiao asked in a muffled voice.
"If I didn't want to, how could you?" Shangyi paused. "I just didn't want you to be angry if you found out."
"Really?
You're not lying to me? "Qin Jiao asked softly, still buried in his arms.
"I'm not lying to you, Lianlian."
Qin Jiao suddenly struggled out of his arms and cried, "I'm so tired, so scared … I want to go back to Jade Buddha Mountain, but I'm afraid you really don't care about me anymore … I thought you didn't want me anymore … the snake demon wanted to eat me and hit me so hard … the fox demon …" Qin Jiao told him all the grievances she had suffered for the past two thousand years.
Qin Jiao grew up in the Jade Buddha Sect. Until she was five hundred years old, she rarely even left Jade Buddha Mountain.
After the incident in the Xuwang Cave, Qin Jiao was scared and at a loss. Later on, when Shang Yi really disappeared for more than two thousand years, she became a genius alchemist in the Sao Ruo Continent from a little bamboo monster who knew nothing about the world.
"It's all my fault. I made Lianlian suffer. I made Lianlian afraid." Shangyi gently wiped away her tears.
"It won't happen again, Lianlian."
"Shangyi, I miss you so much." Qin Jiao threw herself into his arms.
Like before, Shangyi gently patted her back and coaxed her, "Lianlian, be a good girl." But in his mind, he was thinking about before he went down the mountain …
"Shixiong, you're trapped in the formation, but you don't know it. I just hope you can find the direction this time.
For the past two thousand years, you've suffered, but she hasn't.
There's no need to think about the past. It's better to cherish the present. "
Shangshan's parting words didn't sound like what he said in the past.
Forget it, forget it, there's no need to think too deeply about whether it's admiration or dependence …
Shangyi finally coaxed Qin Jiao and heard her say, "Shangyi, Shangyi, you haven't seen my mansion yet. I've never shown it to anyone."
"Are you waiting for me?" Although it was a question, he was already certain in his heart.
"Yes, yes. Didn't I promise you that when I built my mansion, you'll be the first to see it?" Qin Jiao nodded vigorously. Her eyes were watery and full of smiles.
"I'm also waiting for you to show it to me." Shangyi tidied up the messy hair in front of her forehead.
"Then I'll take you there now." The little one looked as if she couldn't wait to share.
"Okay." Shangyi smiled and replied.
As soon as they entered, Qin Jiao couldn't wait to share everything in her mansion with him.
"This is the spiritual spring. This is the spiritual field. There's Green Rice and Black Resplendent Rice in it … This is the spiritual fruit. There's the Reverse Spiritual Fruit and the White Gan Fruit … This is the bamboo house …" Qin Jiao happily explained to him little by little.
Shangyi also listened to her carefully. From time to time, he replied, "I'll fill it up for you in the future … I'll plant it for you in the future …"
"How do you know about my Water Spirit?
Do you want to see it? "
After asking, Qin Jiao regretted it. Since he went to her side once every month, he must have seen it.
"Okay." Shangyi patted her head.
"But you've seen it before." Qin Jiao said in a muffled voice.
"I've never seen it in its true form."
"Yes, here. Take a look." Qin Jiao immediately stretched out her left wrist happily for him to see.
The Water Spirit could feel Qin Jiao's extremely happy mood at this moment. It was rare for it to be so noisy. Once it was dissolved, it dispersed from Qin Jiao's wrist.
"Hey, why are you so disobedient today?" Qin Jiao was angry at the little blue ball's uncooperative behavior.
"Come back quickly. Let him see it." Qin Jiao looked at the Water Spirit that was flying further and further away and said anxiously.
It didn't take long for it to disappear into the air.
Shangyi looked at the little girl who was sulking at the side and asked her, "Do you want me to see it that badly?"
Qin Jiao didn't react. She just nodded subconsciously.
Shangyi waved his hand and the little blue ball appeared in front of Qin Jiao.
"Alright, let's see how you can run. Let's see how you can run." Qin Jiao knew that the Water Spirit didn't have a true form, but she still made the action of "hitting" it.
This time, the little blue ball was very obedient. It didn't run again and just let her "hit" it.
After "hitting" it for a while, she finally reacted. She turned her head and asked Shangyi, "How did you 'get' it back?" Wasn't it only a Nascent Soul cultivator?
"Yes, there are no restrictions in the mansion. My cultivation will recover."
"There's such a thing?"
