I don’t know how long it took, Zhou Shaobai woke up and found that he was lying on a bed. The furnishings in this room were different from Yuping Peak, but I don’t know where it was. There was a round table in the room, and a person was sitting next to the table, eating melon seeds with his legs raised. Seeing Zhou Shaobai woke up, the man approached and leaned over his head and said with a smile: “You are so awake~”

This person is Li Yuankang. Zhou Shaobai frowned and asked slowly, "Senior Brother Li? Where am I? What's wrong with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt pain in the forehead, so he reached out and touched it, but Li Yuankang held it down. He laughed and said, "Junior Brother Zhou, your forehead is injured and has been bandaged, so don't move around."

"I'm injured?" Zhou Shaobai then wanted to stab Mu Ning's sword just now, so he was unconscious and hurriedly said, "Did I lose? How was Miss Mu injured?"

Li Yuankang laughed and said, "You fainted for so long. If you win, Miss Mu shouldn't have cried so hard that she was covered in ice beads!"

When Zhou Shaobai heard this, he said that Mu Ningzhi was so hurt that he was so painful that he was so sad that he said in a frustration: "I am really reckless and actually hurt her. What should I do now!"

Seeing his face full of regret, Li Yuankang smiled and said, "You really love to be self-indulgent. Haven't you been hurt by her? But you are full of others. Don't worry, she is not seriously injured, but after all, her arm is injured and it is inconvenient to use a sword. She lost to Senior Brother Zhang in the last game."

When Zhou Shaobai heard that this was already true, he was even more upset, so Li Yuankang helped him up and stood in the house. Zhou Shaobai looked around the room and saw that several fellow disciples who had fainted during the competition just now were also sleeping in this house.

"How are they?"

Li Yuankang replied: "The head sent someone to see it. They all have stable pulses and there is no serious problem."

"Uh, where is Miss Mu?" Zhou Shaobai asked again hesitantly.

"You really can't live without her in three words. Miss Mu followed her master Lingmeng Taoist to rest in the room in the east. Tonight, a celebration dinner will be set up for Jiuyang Peak, and the head of the sect wants us to attend. You might as well prepare. After all the notifications, I'll go and rest." Li Yuankang stretched and left the room with a swagger.

Only Zhou Shaobai was left indoors. He came to the table by the window and saw that it was almost night outside the window, but the snowflakes were still falling down, and wherever he saw, it was white.

He couldn't help but think of the woman who was like snow and ice. When he recalled everything on the ring, he felt guilty in his heart, so he made up his mind and turned around and left the door.

After passing through the courtyard hall and walking along the corridor, the Jiuyang Peak Taoist Temple is quite large. If Zhou Shaobai hadn't asked a few Jiuyang Peak disciples, he would have never found a resting place for Danxia Peak Sect members.

Asked about the road, Zhou Shaobai came all the way. When he passed by a pavilion, he found a girl in white watching the snow in the pavilion. Who is it not Mu Ningzhi?

Zhou Shaobai was wandering on the road, and finally walked over and coughed: "Miss Mu, it's such a coincidence."

But Mu Ningzhi ignored it and still looked at the trees covered with branches and snow that were flying all over the sky.

Zhou Shaobai had no choice but to say again: "Miss Mu, I accidentally hurt you on the ring today. I am very sorry. I am here to apologize to the girl."

Then Mu Ningzhi spoke quietly: "The ring competition is full of eyes, and there is no accidental injury or injury. Besides, I have hurt you too, so there is no need to worry about it."

Zhou Shaobai indeed hit a nail: "Uh... Actually, what I said on the ring is all to disturb your mind... Miss Mu, I know I have said it too much, so no matter how you deal with it, I am willing to do it."

Mu Ningzhi paused and said, "During the competition, my mind was disturbed by you. It was because I was not good at learning skills and my master punished me. I will practice diligently in the future, so there is no need to mention all kinds of things on the ring."

Zhou Shaobai wanted to speak again, but Mu Ningzhi had turned around: "I want to go back and prepare to attend today's dinner and say goodbye."

"Ah, Miss Mu, be careful of snow and slow walking." Zhou Shaobai had no choice but to bow.

Mu Ningzhi nodded, took a few steps, and then turned around and said, "By the way, I have said before that I am your uncle of the generation. Don't call me Miss Mu in the future, just call me uncle of the master."

After saying that, Mu Ningzhi left without looking back.

Zhou Shaobai sighed. Every word of her was a little colder than the snowflakes on her face. I don’t know if she was relieved.

"Shaobai."

Suddenly, the master's voice came from behind him. Zhou Shaobai hurriedly turned around. It was indeed Taoist Chengyu.

"Master!" Zhou Shaobai bowed and said with his head down, "Master, my disciple failed to win the championship this time, which disappointed Master."

Chengyu laughed and said, "No, you have already made me overjoyed when you can achieve such a good result. You can't win in the second round, not because you don't work hard, but because you are not as skilled as others. However, you can force Mu Ningzhi into a busy look, which really made me unexpected."

Zhou Shaobai blushed with shame and said embarrassedly: "That's really a traitor, and the disciples feel guilty."

"No, what if you were not on the ring at that time, but facing an enemy who wanted to take your life?" Chengyu suddenly said seriously, "In the face of this situation, you naturally have to make victory the first priority, otherwise your life will be difficult to save. Shaobai, what you lack the most now is practical experience. My teacher has always been worried that you will not be able to adapt. He memorizes the moves and Taoisms, so I am really relieved to see that you can come up with those ways to disturb your opponent's mind."

Zhou Shaobai thought to himself: Master is so caring about me. Seeing that I am depressed, he even specially enlightened me.

So Zhou Shaobai nodded and said, "What Master taught me is that the disciples understand. In actual combat, the situation changes rapidly, and it will definitely be thousands of times more dangerous than the competition on the ring. Naturally, we must win with all our strength."

Chengyu nodded: "That's true. You are one of the four disciples who won this time. At the dinner later, the head of the sect will let you go down the mountain to experience it soon. You should know that there are so many young people in the world, and there are countless people in their side and left-wing paths. You must be more careful and not be obsessed with their own way. When you encounter a crisis, you must not only care about the identity of a famous and upright disciple, but be like today-"

Chengyu suddenly whispered: "Even if you use any means, you must win so that you can protect yourself. Do you understand?"

Zhou Shaobai was moved. He went up the mountain at the age of eight and was under Chengyu's seat for eight years. Chengyu was both a master and a father. This conversation was even more heart-warming, and his love for his disciple was beyond words. So he couldn't help but feel sad: "Yes! I will remember my master's teachings! I dare not forget for a moment!"

Chengyu nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, please follow me, let's go to the banquet hall."

The master and apprentice left the pavilion and walked away along the corridor in the snow.
