She went up
The only thing that made Lu Xuan doubtful was the secret book in He Yuanfeng's hand.
After the death of the old dean, because he was worried that someone would use this technique to do evil, Lu Xuan took away the manuscript containing the secret technique and took it out of Sancai Academy.
So the question is, where did He Yuanfeng's technique of worshiping and becoming a saint come from?
Lu Xuan recalled the scene in the morning. When he discovered the origin of this technique, He Yuanfeng was extremely surprised.
In other words, he had no idea that this secret technique was created by his master.
It's more like I got the secret book by some kind of "chance".
"If someone deliberately passed on the art of sacrificing Taoism and becoming a saint to He Yuanfeng, with the intention of destroying the Confucian tradition..."
Lu Xuan frowned slightly, thinking of the rebirth of the ancestral witch he had experienced when he was fighting demons in Dongping Kingdom.
There are also people hiding in the dark, adding fuel to the flames.
"The resurrection of the ancestral witch will cause great disaster. He Yuanfeng will become a demon and destroy the foundation of Confucianism and Taoism. The Cangyuan world will also fall into great turmoil..."
Lu Xuan tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
If the same force is secretly behind these two incidents...
Lu Xuan organized his thoughts and his expression gradually became serious.
He wanted to take a sip of wine, but reached out and touched something soft.
Lu Xuan pinched it twice, it was Cheng Lingzhu's... hand.
Lu Xuan took a closer look and found that his cup had been taken by Cheng Lingzhu.
While holding his hand, she raised the wine cup and took a sip.
So there was only half of the wine left in the glass. The girl's face was red, her eyes were blinking, and she held the wine cup with her white catkins and handed it over:
"Here."
She put the wine cup to her mouth, naturally she didn't want Lu Xuan to fill it up for her.
Lu Xuan glanced down and saw the wine liquid remaining on the edge of the wine cup, leaving a faint lip mark.
Cheng Lingzhu raised his chin, his cheeks flushed.
I don't know if it was because of drinking or other reasons.
Lu Xuan reached out to take it, opened his mouth to hold the edge of the wine cup, and slowly drank the wine in the cup.
When he put down the wine cup in his hand, the mouth of the cup was smooth and there was no trace of wine left.
The corners of Cheng Lingzhu's mouth raised, and she held a small wine jar on the table in her arms. She pulled Lu Xuan's sleeve and said:
"Let's go back."
"tired?"
Lu Xuan glanced at the banquet that was not over yet, nodded and said:
"Walk."
Cheng Lingzhu was about to stand up, but someone hugged her waist. The person's other arm supported her leg and lifted the girl horizontally.
Many people around noticed the situation here and looked over.
Lu Xuan walked through the bustling banquet hall, looking ahead without squinting, but Cheng Lingzhu raised his chin with pride on his face.
When a male disciple from Sancai Academy saw this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, as if the wine in the glass and the food on the plate had lost their taste.
Damn it, you can't hold it with a man, right?
He sneered, kicked off his shoes, and jumped into his senior brother's arms.
Huh, I have one too.
………………
The hustle and bustle behind me gradually faded away.
The moonlight is cold and the night is as cool as water.
Lu Xuan slowly exhaled and his body gradually relaxed.
He has lived for so many years, but he still has some reserve in his heart as a senior.
Fortunately, Lu Xuan is different from Cheng Hongtan back then.
When the life wheel is reset, all the aura of mortals and traces of time stained on his spiritual platform will be removed, allowing him to maintain a youthful mentality.
So Lu Xuan held Cheng Lingzhu in his arms, and Cheng Lingzhu held the small wine jar in his arms, and the two returned to their residence.
The door of the room was opened, and there was a spiritual wood table with two high stools placed near the bed.
Lu Xuan put Cheng Lingzhu down and was about to go to the side to get a basin of hot water, but his sleeve was pulled.
Cheng Lingzhu put the wine jar on the table, puffed out his chest and said:
"You haven't drank with me yet."
Lu Xuan blinked:
"Didn't you drink half a glass just now?"
"That doesn't count."
Cheng Lingzhu is unreasonable.
"All right."
Lu Xuan agreed with her statement.
The two of them live in the same courtyard, but not in the same room.
Lu Xuan lives next door to Cheng Lingzhu, and they are very close to each other, only a few steps away.
Since she wants to stay with her for a while, she just needs to stay here for a while.
Cheng Lingzhu took two glasses from the table and filled them with wine.
Lu Xuan sat next to her and watched her movements.
Cheng Lingzhu lowered his head, took a sip of wine, and said after a while:
"You...have become very powerful now."
"Um?"
Lu Xuan raised his eyebrows, and as his mind wandered, he understood why she drank so much wine today.
It turns out that the person who was most touched by my appearance as a saint in front of others today was actually Cheng Lingzhu.
This is indeed the case.
Although Cheng Lingzhu had witnessed Lu Xuan's various outrageous operations before his memory awakened, his perspective at that time was different from now.
Today, when she saw Lu Xuan taking action and showing off in front of others, she actually felt a little dazed in her heart.
The disciple who needed her protection back then has now grown into a towering tree.
"What, you're not used to it?"
Lu Xuan had a bit of a smile on his face.
"A little bit."
Cheng Lingzhu nodded, "But I'm happy, very happy. Before I went through the tribulation, I was still thinking about whether you would be bullied after I left..."
She looked at Lu Xuan and said with a smile:
"But now that I think about it, it must be someone else who is being bullied."
"This is a bit unfair. I have such noble moral character..."
Lu Xuan defended himself, "And in terms of actual strength, he's not that strong."
"Even the monks who have successfully transcended the tribulation have been suppressed by you. Isn't that strong enough?"
Cheng Lingzhu said, "You have grown into a senior."
After hearing this, Lu Xuan took her hand and placed it on his heart:
"If you are really a senior, no matter what happens, your heart will definitely be calm.
It's a pity that I am a person whose inner emotions change drastically. When you are not around me, my heart feels empty and I always miss you.
How can such a layman be called a senior?"
When Cheng Lingzhu heard what he said, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and said deliberately:
"If you put it this way, a person who is trapped by the love between a man and a woman must have an extremely unstable Taoist heart."
