  "Master, what are you doing? You're hurting me."
  
  Zhao Shining rubbed the soft flesh on his waist that was a little painful from his pinching, and stared at him with aggrieved eyes, as if he had done something very unforgivable.
  
  Xie Linzhuo slowly clenched his fingers. He didn't want to do anything, but he didn't want her to leave so easily.
  
  Why did she drag him into the mud, but she could act as if nothing happened and go to find others with peace of mind.
  
  He inevitably hated her ruthlessness.
  
  "Go."
  
  After a while, he whispered.
  
  Half of Xie Linzhuo's figure was hidden in the shadows, as if the darkness around him was slowly swallowing him up completely.
  
  Zhao Shining didn't know what he was crazy about, but he just felt that he was unreasonable.
  
  "Then I'm leaving."
  
  She casually re-combed her messy bun, recited the cleansing spell again, and prepared to go out to find Shen Wuheng.
  
  "Zhao Shining, stay away from Shen Wuheng."
  
  Xie Linzhuo's figure was completely hidden in the darkness. She couldn't see his expression clearly. She responded impatiently and pushed open the door happily. The
  
  dazzling sunlight came in through the crack of the door, driving away the darkness in the room, but the light could not fall on Xie Linzhuo.
  
  His stomach felt uncomfortable again, and he finally didn't have to endure it anymore, and he retched in pain.
  
  ——
  
  Zhao Shining just trotted through the courtyard and looked everywhere, but couldn't find Shen Wuheng.
  
  She walked out of Wuji Pavilion and looked into the distance. Sure enough, she saw Shen Wuheng practicing sword in the wind on the edge of the cliff not far away.
  
  Her Taoist robe danced with the wind, and the sword intent was strange and feminine, like the flow of silver light, and the sword style changed rapidly, which made Zhao Shining admire and stunned. When
  
  Shen Wuheng saw her, she immediately put the sword into the sheath, and there was a clang, like a whine.
  
  She flew up, like a light bird, and slowly landed in front of Zhao Shining, and returned to the gentle appearance that Zhao Shining was familiar with.
  
  "Aning, you're looking for me?"
  
  Zhao Shining's words were stuck in her throat, and she felt a little ashamed of being a waste. She whispered: "Nothing."
  
  Shen Wuheng was surprised, "Aning, you broke through."
  
  "It's just... building a foundation..."
  
  Zhao Shining said a little embarrassedly.
  
  "That's also amazing. A foundation-building cultivator should have spiritual power in his body, but the spiritual power is too little to use for the time being. Aning, what do you plan to cultivate in the future?"
  
  Shen Wuheng understood Zhao Shining's embarrassment. She has never been a person who cares about other people's thoughts, but she sincerely considers Zhao Shining's future.
  
  Zhao Shining also showed a blank expression when he heard this, "I don't know what to cultivate either. Do cultivators have to choose one path to cultivate?"
  
  "You are not interested in sword cultivation, talisman cultivation, weapon cultivation, magic cultivation, and alchemy cultivation?"
  
  Shen Wuheng wanted Zhao Shining to be a sword cultivator. After all, she and Xie Linzhuo were both sword cultivators, and she was confident that she could teach Zhao Shining to become the best sword cultivator in the world.
  
  Zhao Shining shook her head. She was determined to cultivate Hehuan and was not prepared to temper her spiritual roots and practice hard.
  
  But she didn't dare to tell Shen Wuheng this.
  
  She had been a beggar since she was a child and her life was already very hard. If she had to practice hard for hundreds of years, it would be better to kill her.
  
  If she had to learn something, she just wanted to learn a weapon that could be used for sneak attacks.
  
  It would be great if she didn't have to fight people head-on and could just run away after the fight.
  
  Zhao Shining told her this idea. She was afraid that Shen Wuheng would say that she had no future, but she didn't expect Shen Wuheng to smile and transform into a silver longbow.
  
  She pulled the bowstring and aimed at a tree on the opposite mountain. There was no arrow on the longbow, but as she moved, the white spiritual power turned into three long arrows, flying out like a few streams of light, piercing the entire sky.
  
  Zhao Shining saw the trees on the opposite mountain suddenly fall down and fall into the bottomless cliff, and her heart was beating wildly.
  
  [This is too cool. ]
  
  The system's voice and her heart exclaimed at the same time.
  
  "Is this the weapon you want?" Shen Wuheng handed the longbow to Zhao Shining.
  
  Zhao Shining nodded quickly, her eyes shining, and carefully took the bow and arrow. She learned the posture of Shen Wuheng just now and slowly pulled the bow. A faint green spiritual power appeared on the bow and arrow. She was happy, but the spiritual power disappeared in an instant.
  
  She tried several more times, but it still didn't work.
  
  She drooped her shoulders, like a puppy falling into the water, and returned the bow and arrow to Shen Wuheng.
  
  "I don't have spiritual power, I'm afraid I can't use this bow and arrow."
  
  "It's normal that you can't use spiritual power after just breaking through. This bow and arrow is not suitable for you. I will go down the mountain in a few days to make a longbow suitable for you." Shen Wuheng hurriedly comforted her.
  
  Zhao Shining was silent for a moment, "Uncle Shen, why are you so good to me?"
  
  Zhao Shining was not used to Shen Wuheng's enthusiastic attitude towards her. She was a sensitive and suspicious person by nature. Not only would she not be confused by Shen Wuheng's kindness to her, but she would suspect whether Shen Wuheng had other intentions.
  
  "Aning, do I need a reason to be good to you?" Shen Wuheng couldn't help but chuckle.
  
  Zhao Shining's eyes moved slightly when she heard this, but she still said: "If Uncle Master wants to take back the soul, just take it away. There is no need to do this to me."
  
  "I won't take the soul away. If I do, my bond with you will be gone. If I really want to take it away, I will kill you the first time I see you."
  
  Shen Wuheng didn't want to talk about this with her anymore, so she changed to another topic, "This Wuji Pavilion is empty, and I'm really bored staying here. Aning, are you willing to go to the human world with me?"
  
  "The human world?"
  
  Zhao Shining heard the word "human world". It was obviously her hometown, but she felt extremely unfamiliar.
  
  "Uncle Master, can I really go to the human world with you?" She asked tentatively with a slightly lighter voice.
  
  The human world and the cultivation world are separated by a barrier. Only cultivators with high cultivation can pass through this barrier to reach the human world. Even if they reach the human world, they cannot use magic at will.
  
  "Of course." Shen Wuheng extended her hand to Zhao Shining, "Aning, hold my hand, I'll take you to the human world."
  
  Zhao Shining hesitated and looked back at Wuji Pavilion. She was a little afraid that something might happen to the pregnant Xie Linzhuo, but the temptation to return to the human world was too great. She hesitated for a moment and held Shen Wuheng's hand without thinking.
  
  Shen Wuheng held her hand and flew towards the sea of ​​clouds.
  
  Zhao Shining covered her eyes tightly at first, not daring to look around, but after a while she became a little bolder and saw the soft clouds through her fingers, but that was all. She was really afraid that Shen Wuheng would not hold her firmly and she would fall down and die.
  
  But in a moment, Shen Wuheng had landed steadily with her.
  
  Zhao Shining tentatively moved her hand away, but found that she was already in a crowded street, with the familiar shouts of hawkers in her ears.
  
  She really returned to... the human world.
  
  It was already night in the human world. I don't know what festival it was today, but there were a lot of pedestrians on the street. The shops around the street were brightly lit, with elegant people, BMWs and carved cars, making it particularly lively.
  
  "It's a rare trip to the human world. I'll take you to the restaurant I used to go to."
  
  Shen Wuheng had already changed her appearance. She was no longer dressed as a Taoist nun. She was wearing ordinary clothes, with an ordinary bun and a layer of gauze on her face. She looked no different from the women around her.
  
  Zhao Shining then realized that she had also changed her clothes and her face was also covered with a layer of gauze.
  
  "Okay."
  
  As long as she was not in Wuji Pavilion, Zhao Shining was in a good mood wherever she went.
  
  Shen Wuheng took her through the crowd. Zhao Shining occasionally heard other people's conversations. She heard someone talking about "Shangsi Festival" and "The emperor will ascend the Suzaku Tower at midnight"...
  
  [Hey, Zhao Shining, it's a rattle. Don't you want to buy one for your child? ]
  
  Zhao Shining definitely didn't want to buy it. He just pretended not to hear the system's words, but the system was not so easy to give up.
  
  [Zhao Shining, can you be a little more compassionate? You didn't bring gifts for your children when you went on a long journey! Too much! Too much!]
  
  Zhao Shining stopped by the stall selling rattles, her face full of anger, and she picked up a rattle at random
  
  . "Madam, there are other toys here. Do you need anything else? Children are playful, and one rattle may not be enough." The vendor recommended other things to her with a smile on his face.
  
  "No, one is enough."
  
  Zhao Shining could only buy a rattle, and handed the silver money that Shen Wuheng had just given her to the vendor, and turned away in a hurry.
  
  The rattle kept knocking with her hurried steps, making Zhao Shining upset and inevitably thinking of Xie Linzhuo again.
  
  She was only away for a while, how could something go wrong?
  
  Soon, Zhao Shining followed Shen Wuheng to the restaurant. Shen Wuheng seemed to be very familiar with this place. She took her up a few stairs to the top floor. Sitting by the window, she could almost overlook the entire Shendu City, as well as the Suzaku Tower not far away.
  
  "Oh, you are Monk Shen? Monk Shen, I haven't seen you for almost 20 years. You are still so young, the same as you were back then."
  
  Shen Wuheng turned around and looked over. She saw a young servant wearing a towel. She said gently, "Who are you?"
  
  "Look at my brain. I was just a seven-year-old boy serving here back then. Now I have grown up and my appearance has changed a lot. It is normal that the monks don't recognize me. Thanks to the monks' help, otherwise I would have been beaten to death by the drunk people who came here." The young servant was about to cry as he spoke.
  
  Zhao Shining didn't care about it. She sat at the table and admired the night view of the capital city. She thought that she was in a corner of this huge capital city back then. She went out to beg during the day and went back to the dilapidated fox fairy temple in the city to sleep at night.
  
  The days passed in a daze .
  
  Now thinking about it, it seems like a lifetime.
  
  Shen Wuheng finally dealt with the young servant and sat opposite Zhao Shining.
  
  Zhao Shining held his cheek and smiled, "I didn't expect that Master Shen was so kind-hearted and would do justice in the human world."
  
  Shen Wuheng's expression was indifferent, "I didn't want to save him, but those troublemakers were too noisy and disturbed me, so I just killed them."
  
  Zhao Shining's heart choked, and he didn't know what to say.
  
  The waiter quickly served the wine and dishes.
  
  Zhao Shining hadn't seen human food for more than ten years. She only had jujube paste cake yesterday, but that was far from satisfying her craving. She stared at the roast chicken in front of her and looked at Shen Wuheng.
  
  Shen Wuheng filled a glass of wine for Zhao Shining, "Aning, you are the only one in this world who can drink with me."
  
  "But I don't know how to drink. What should I do if I get drunk?" Zhao Shining pinched the wine glass and sniffed it with his nose, only to smell the spicy taste.
  
  "If you get drunk, you can stay here for a day. If you stay drunk forever, you can stay here forever." Shen Wuheng drank a glass of wine and looked at the Suzaku Tower in the city with Zhao Shining. The
  
  prosperous and brilliant lights inlaid a layer of gold edges on the huge attic. From time to time, a few gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the sky, which was beautiful.
  
  Zhao Shining inexplicably felt that Shen Wuheng was not in a good mood. She tentatively sipped the wine in the glass. The spicy and strong taste made her frown.
  
  "Puh, phuh, it's really hard to drink."
  
  "Drink a few more sips, you will get used to it."
  
  Shen Wuheng's cheeks were a little more flushed, and the cinnabar mole between her eyebrows was as red as before, which made her more lively and less scary.
  
  "I see that you don't seem to be able to drink much. If you can't get used to it, then don't drink. Why force yourself to adapt? I never force myself."
  
  Zhao Shining couldn't drink, which was convenient for her to eat. She ate with relish. In the end, she ate almost all the dishes on the table. At
  
  some point, the Suzaku Tower was already crowded with people. People stood on Suzaku Street, looking up at the emperor who was about to ascend the tower.
  
  "I have never seen an emperor in the world." Zhao Shining murmured.
  
  "So what about the emperor in the world? Although he is born as an emperor and the master of a world, he is destined to have no chance to cultivate immortals. He is just a mayfly that lives in the morning and dies in the evening." Shen Wuheng poured herself another glass of wine.
  
  "Why can't I cultivate immortals?" Zhao Shining asked puzzled.
  
  "Good fortune and bad fortune go hand in hand. If you gain something, you must lose something. Being the supreme emperor is already a rare fate. If you can cultivate immortality, wouldn't that be a great advantage? It's just like the fact that most of the gods and immortals have difficulty in having offspring. This is God's will."
  
  Shen Wuheng was already a little drunk. She always drank the strongest liquor every time she came. Now that she hasn't drunk for nearly 20 years, her alcohol tolerance has decreased a lot.
  
  The people under the Suzaku Tower knelt down one after another, shouting "Long live the emperor", and their voices shook the sky.
  
  Zhao Shining stretched half of her body out of the window with great interest, ready to see what this supreme emperor in the world looked like.
  
  She looked up unexpectedly, and her eyes collided with Si Henan, who was looking down at the people in the Suzaku Tower with an expressionless face.
  
  "Ah, why is it a child?" Zhao Shining looked away with disappointment on his face.
  
  The little emperor looked only ten years old, too thin, and wearing a very mismatched black dragon robe.
  
  Shen Wuheng drank another glass of wine. She counted with her fingers, "I calculated that this little emperor will definitely be a tyrant in the future. It just so happens that I have nothing to do today. Why don't you come with me to do something fun? Kill this little emperor in front of the people?"
  
  Shen Wuheng suddenly laughed, her dark eyes flashing with a strange light, "It's interesting to think about it. It just so happens that my sword hasn't drunk the blood of the royal family for a long time. The purer the blood, the purer the sword spirit."
  
  Zhao Shining reacted slowly.
  
  What Qi Bumian said at that time.
  
  Shen Wuheng... seems to be a real lunatic.
  
  Shen Wuheng brought her to the human world, didn't he just want to refine the sword with the life of the little emperor! ?
