Chapter 114 - Is It Funny That the Reincarnated Senior Sister Is Also Being Pursued?

As she looked into Bai Lian's clear eyes, Gu Qing Qing's pupils suddenly contracted, and the sullenness in her eyes instantly disappeared. She suddenly began to pant urgently, like a fish out of water. Then, she pushed Bai Lian away forcefully. "Master and disciple should not be too close. You suddenly throwing yourself into my embrace, how improper is that!" "If others saw, they'd think I'm spoiling you too much and demand something in return!" "Oops~ Lian'er was just too happy and feeling a bit embarrassed." Bai Lian innocently scratched her face. She did indeed have the intention to please Gu Qing Qing. After all, although she had some savings, when she thought about the price of purchasing materials for the Meiwén, she suddenly felt like a penniless ghost. She even thought about mooching some spiritual medicine from Mu Xinghe. After all, Mu Xinghe usually helped people with feng shui and healing, and seemed to be quite wealthy. But she still didn't know what price she would have to pay to mooch the medicine from him. And now, the master had taken out these spiritual medicines and talismans, it was truly a timely help. But... was the master's reaction a bit too much? Clearly, she used to throw herself into her embrace and rub and play with her arms, and the master seemed to enjoy it. Although she didn't know what she was enjoying. But pushing her away like this was a first. "Hmph, don't make this a habit, you cheeky girl who disrespects her master!" Gu Qing Qing said indignantly. She didn't know why she reacted like that. Given that Bai Lian was her disciple, jumping into her embrace and acting cute was just normal. That's what she used to think. But just now, she suddenly felt very scared. Scared that she... couldn't control herself. "Anyway, this sword energy is condensed from my spiritual power, and it contains my awareness. It's enough to injure a Sunlight Cultivator, and I can use it three times," she changed the subject and said. "This time in Xiadu, we'll inevitably encounter the Esoteric Sect. You must be careful," she warned. "Thank you, Master, Lian'er will remember," Bai Lian said, gazing at the sword energy in Gu Qing Qing's hand, her eyes sparkling. Wasn't this the life-saving card that many novels' main characters' masters gave to them? Actually, it was quite normal to think about it, given how dangerous the cultivation world was; a single mistake could lead to death. Though everyone had gotten used to this kind of cultivation world, which master wouldn't treat their direct disciples as their own flesh and blood? Oh, except for some who practiced a forgetting doctrine. In any case, most masters, even if they were willing to let their disciples experience the world, would usually give them some means of protection. It's just that the manifestation of this varies. In short, after being reborn and transmigrating for three years, Bai Lian finally understood what it felt like to be the main character! "And also," Gu Qing Qing said, pausing slightly. Then she took out a long sword from her ring. The scabbard of the long sword was a mixture of blue and white, with each color swirling from both ends to the middle and eventually transforming into two interdependent and blooming lotus flowers in the middle. "It's been so long since you started, but it seems you still don't have your own personal sword," she said. Bai Lian was a little stunned and replied, "Yeah, I've always been using the standard sword given by the sect." "But the standard sword is also very good, after all, Lian'er rarely goes out." "You don't need to make excuses. This is indeed my neglect," Gu Qing Qing looked at the lotus flower on the scabbard and said lightly. "This sword was casually forged by me, it's nothing special, but it's better than what you have. Use it for self-defense." As she spoke, she fell into a moment of silence, looking suddenly a little lost. "Lian'er, I'm sorry for these years." From beginning to end, she couldn't be considered a good master. In her last life, she had almost forgotten her identity as Bai Lian's master, and in this life, she still saw Bai Lian as a shadow of Bai Lian. Even after finding out that Bai Lian was a girl in this life, she only took Bai Lian back to Moyo Peak to test if she really was Bai Lian, and then to take revenge. This kind of her...she really didn't deserve to be Bai Lian's master. Especially when she saw the pure look in Bai Lian's eyes, her guilt grew stronger. "Master has never let me down," Bai Lian suddenly said. Gu Qing Qing looked up in astonishment, only to find Bai Lian looking at her earnestly. "Master was able to pull me out of the worldly quagmire and put me on the path to immortality. To become today's Senior Sister Bai Lian of Taihua Sword Sect, Lian'er is already very content." "Lian'er has her own abilities. These things are not the master's duty at all, so where is the need for apologizing?" "Even if, even if in Lian'er's past life...or future life," Bai Lian bit her lip gently and said firmly, "being able to meet Master, I will definitely be grateful!" Gu Qing Qing was stunned. She looked at Bai Lian's sincere and bright eyes, and a sense of panic rose in her heart for no apparent reason. She blushed and turned away, saying somewhat grumpily, "Always so glib! Is that what I taught you?" Bai Lian blinked. Indeed, in your previous life, you did teach me that way. "Anyway, I have nothing good to give you. Whether you want them or not, throw them away if you don't." "Anyway, I know you have admirers, you don't lack such things. Zhan Li, Jiang Miao, Mu Xinghe. Hmph!" "I'm going back to seclusion; take care of yourself." With that, Gu Qing Qing was about to leave. She was just too embarrassed. "Master, Lian'er will definitely cherish what you've given me as precious!" "P-precious...it's up to you!" "Oh, Master, you haven't told me the name of this sword yet!" As Gu Qing Qing's figure was about to disappear, she paused slightly, turned back slightly, and said softly, "The sword is called, Twin Souls." As her words fell, she disappeared. "Twin Souls?" Bai Lian scratched her head, not quite understanding why her master's sword was called that. After all, her master's own personal sword had a very simple name, just called the Blue Lotus Sword. Even her sword energy, title, and so on, were directly related to the Blue Lotus. It could be said that naming seemed to be a tradition passed down in the family. So she thought her master's sword for her would be simply called the White Lotus, Two Lotus Flowers, Blue and White Lotus, or something similar. "Twin Souls," Bai Lian touched the warm scabbard of the Twin Souls sword, feeling her heart filled with warmth. Speaking of which, her master seemed a bit strange today. Not only did she resist her close proximity, but she also left in a hurry just now. Could it be...? Bai Lian suddenly had a bright idea and thought of something. Could it be that the master finally realized that she no longer dwelled on memories from the past life and decided to change their relationship, eventually developing into a pure master-disciple relationship? Otherwise, it was hard to explain why the master suddenly resisted her closeness and made so many actions that fit a perfect master. That way, wouldn't the danger of her turning into a furry ball be greatly reduced? The more Bai Lian thought about it, the happier she became, and her eyes curved into crescent moons, even her cherry lips formed a W shape. Happy! Only the fox girl was watching from the corner with cold eyes. What a fool. She didn't even realize that her own master was almost falling into her inner demons. Serves her right if she gets wiped out. I tried resting a bit yesterday and rearranging the plot of the second volume. There will be today's double update (the fox girl is targeting her).
