Volume Two, Chapter Eight, Five-Star Lianzhu (Today is the last!)
"If it makes you feel better if you tell me, just tell me." Yun Yi sighed.
Last time, Chu Xier only mentioned it lightly. Due to her expression at that time, Yun Yi did not continue to ask.
But now it's like this again. Thinking about it, this heartache is indeed not a small one. If you keep holding it in, problems will occur sooner or later.
"Actually, before you, there were people who came to the Chu family to accept disciples." Chu Xier's tone was a little sad, "That was when I was eight years old, people from the Purple Jade Immortal Palace came and took Li'er away."
"After that, Li'er came back several times, but every time she came back, her attitude towards her family would become much colder."
"The last time she came back was probably two years ago when you took me in. Not only did she break up with the Chu family in front of the entire clan, but she also humiliated me in public, calling me... a waste."
"Actually, she used to have a really good relationship with me. She would often follow me like a little follower and would pester me to tell her stories..."
"Could it be that I am really such a bad sister that I have embarrassed her?"
"Do you know why even though my talent is so poor, I still haven't given up on practicing?"
"It's because I often wonder, if I could become a little stronger, even just a little bit, wouldn't Li'er dislike me and our relationship would be the same as before?"
Yun Yi said nothing, letting her tears wet his clothes, feeling very uncomfortable.
They are twins, sisters.
Can you feel good about being so hurt, alienated, or even publicly humiliated by your nearest and dearest people? Can you not feel sad?
I really don’t know what kind of ecstasy soup those idiots from Ziyu Immortal Mansion poured into Chu Lier to make her reach this point?
The dog doesn’t mind the family’s poverty! Damn it, do you really think it’s great to be the apprentice of an immortal?
"Xi'er, don't think about it. You are not wrong. It is her who is wrong." Thinking of this, Yun Yi couldn't help but feel angry. "In my heart, you have never been a waste. You are my great disciple, Yun Yi.
The senior sister of Wuxian Sect."
"Sometimes, even though the teacher doesn't say anything, the teacher sees everything you do."
"Whether it's practicing hard, or taking care of your junior sister wholeheartedly, and helping to relieve the teacher's worries, you have done a very good job."
"If anyone dares to call you a waste again, I will definitely... kill him."
"┭┮﹏┭┮Master..." Chu Xier really couldn't bear it anymore and threw herself into Yun Yi's arms, venting her tears wantonly.
Yun Yi sighed and patted her back gently, comforting her in this silent way.
After crying for a long time, Chu Xier stopped her tears and raised her head to look at him: "Master, can I make a small request?"
"Say it."
"I think tonight... Is it okay to sleep in your arms like this?"
"……good."
Looking at Chu Xi'er lying in his arms and gradually falling asleep, Yun Yi felt a little emotional.
Speaking of which, all four of his apprentices had bad fates. Compared with them, she seemed to be a little lighter.
But a few other people will act coquettishly, just like the little fox demon will get angry with themselves.
Only Chu Xier, as a senior sister, would hold back many things in her heart, and she would suffer these pains silently by herself.
She is really strong and sensible.
Forget it before, from now on, if anyone talks again, he will never let it go, no matter who it is.
After that, Chu Xier returned to her original appearance, but, compared to before, she seemed to occasionally act coquettishly with Yun Yi.
Luan Xiao from Wanjianmen was often seen by the two of them. After all, they lived not far away, so they really couldn't see each other without looking up.
This Luan Xiao is actually an interesting person. He is polite and polite, but also humorous. He has the feeling of a romantic and talented person.
After going back and forth, although the few of them could not be called friends, they got along very harmoniously.
Especially when he heard that they were going to Wanjianmen, Luan Xiao was so happy that he volunteered to show them the way, and even said that he would treat them to a drink when they got there.
On this day, several people were having dinner together in a restaurant in the VIP area.
Speaking of which, the VIP area is really luxurious, with all kinds of restaurants and tea shops, and even a theater and a brothel, so that these wealthy guests will not feel bored during the trip.
Of course, the price is a bit more expensive than ordinary places. It seems that Wanbao Merchant Alliance really understands this truth.
Whoever has money gets it. In other words, no matter rich or poor, they have no intention of letting it go.
Because there is also a gambling house in the VIP area, which is also the only place where passengers from the other two areas can spend money.
"Brother Yi, are you interested in playing with both hands?" Luan Xiao suggested after finishing the meal.
Yun Yi quickly waved his hand. It's hard to get rid of this kind of thing. It's best not to start it.
"That's all. Since Brother Yi is not interested, forget it. I'll go by myself." Luan Xiao didn't force him, he just got up and left in a hurry.
Seeing his anxious look, Yun Yi shook his head and took Chu Xier to the terrace to watch the scenery.
But tonight there seemed to be a lot of people on the terrace, as if they were waiting for something.
Not long after, a burst of bright light flashed across, and five stars in the sky were exceptionally bright, emitting dazzling light.
"Five-star continuum! There really is a five-star continuum!" Seeing this scene, someone quickly exclaimed and immediately sat down and started practicing.
Seeing this, other people also followed suit.
The Five-Star Lianzhu is a kind of vision of heaven and earth, and cultivating with its power will be of great benefit to your own cultivation.
"Xier, why don't you give it a try? Maybe you will gain something." Thinking of this, Yunyi said to Chu Xier.
Chu Xier nodded, crossed her legs and meditated, and began to feel the power of this vision.
Yun Yi himself was not idle, he also planned to use his spiritual power to sense it and see what was so special about this five-star chain.
In fact, he is already in the heavenly realm and has no need for these things at all. It's just that he is idle and he should enjoy himself.
However, as he slowly closed his eyes and fell into meditation, and the spiritual power inside his body began to circulate, something strange did appear.
Wisps of jet-black aura seemed to flow out from those stars, and slowly entered his body along the seven orifices.
In an instant, Yun Yi felt a cool and refreshing feeling in his body, and some changes also occurred in his consciousness.
At this moment, he seemed to be in the vast starry sky, surrounded by stars and boundless.
However, this feeling only lasted for half a moment, and Yun Yi suddenly woke up.
After trying to use his spiritual power, he found that his spiritual power seemed... a little purer?
What's going on?
There seems to be no record of this in my memory, which is very strange.
After a while, the five-star continuum gradually disappeared, and the other monks stood up one after another, praising the vision and regretting that it only appeared for too short a time.
The same goes for Chu Xier, because in less than half a stick of incense, some of the bottlenecks in her body showed signs of loosening.
All of this is easy to say, but the key is Yun Yi himself. He is already at the highest level of Celestial Realm cultivation. Logically speaking, there is no possibility of increasing his cultivation level?
He couldn't figure it out for a while, so he stopped caring about it and planned to find a time to study it carefully.
At this moment, Luan Xiao ran over in a hurry: "What, Brother Yi, I heard that there was a Five-Star Continent just now?"
"You're late." Yun Yi shook his head, "It's gone."
"Alas! I just won two thousand spirit coins, and I plan to come over and share the joy with you!" Luan Xiao patted his thigh in annoyance, "This... this... alas!"
"If I had known this would happen, who would have gambled?"
[Author's digression]: Today is New Year's Eve. I originally planned to watch the fifth night, but the lazy bug in my body caused trouble...
