My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 733 Traitor
The land of Nanyue

Atop a mountain in the clouds.

The vast mountains and rivers, amidst the boundless sea of ​​clouds, rise and fall like dragons and snakes, sometimes visible, sometimes hidden, their movements unpredictable.

You Longzi stood atop the mountain, hands behind his back, gazing at the vast sea of ​​clouds stretching into the distance, his eyes deep and lost in thought.

The mountain wind howled, and a corner of a garment fluttered in the wind.

"This unworthy disciple, Situ Yuan, pays respects to Master!"

I don't know when,

A streak of light came from the horizon and landed on the slightly lower rocks at the top of the mountain.

He took two steps forward, bowed and clasped his hands in a salute to You Longzi, who was standing with his hands behind his back in front of him.

"Now that you have left my Wanren Peak lineage, you no longer need to call me master."

You Longzi didn't turn around, but spoke calmly.

His gaze remained fixed on the distant, boundless sea of ​​clouds, and his voice remained completely calm.

"A teacher for a day, a father for life."

"Although I have left, I will never forget the kindness of my master's teachings for all eternity!"

Situ Yuan bowed and lowered his head, maintaining a submissive posture.

Like a disciple who has made a mistake,
Be careful when you come to ask for forgiveness.

just,

Despite Situ Yuan's respectful and humble demeanor, You Longzi's expression remained largely unchanged.

"You're still the same as before."

Situ Yuan's attitude was respectful, and there was not a single bad thing about it.

But You Longzi still shook his head.

The other party's submissive demeanor reminded him of the little disciple he had unexpectedly taken in after he came to Tiannan Region and founded the Longxiao Sect; they were almost identical.

But You Longzi knew very well that the two of them were different.

Shen Changchuan's respect was genuine.
He respected his less-than-ideal master, and also respected his fellow disciples who had entered the sect earlier.

And this person,
He is completely different from Shen Changchuan.

The reason the other party is acting this way is simply because they have greater benefits to gain.

When he took Situ Yuan under his wing,
You Longzi was very clear about his character.

At that time, Wanrenfeng's lineage was still quite strong and well-equipped. They needed fresh blood, so as long as the other party showed enough talent, they didn't care about their little schemes.

In a sense, this can be considered a mutually beneficial cooperation. The other party can climb Wanren Peak, a powerful branch of the Immortal Sect, while Wanren Peak can also strengthen its own power.

Later, Master ran into trouble.

The patriarch's time is coming to an end.
To make matters worse, Wanren Peak's most promising disciple, who had the best chance of reaching the Profound Core Realm, died unexpectedly at that time.
As a result, the massive ship known as Wanren Peak was on the verge of capsizing.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Situ Yuan abandoned the large ship that was Wanren Peak.

“Situ Yuan, actually I don’t have much of a problem with you leaving my school and departing from the Wanren Peak lineage.”

"The path of cultivation is inherently a winding and difficult one. If one is delayed by external affairs, one may never reach the peak in this lifetime."

"The path of immortality values ​​personal interests. You chose to leave for your own future, and there is nothing wrong with that in itself."

You Longzi's voice was calm, without any resentment or bitterness. He was simply speaking calmly, as if he were talking to an ordinary person or a stranger about something.

His words were not deceptive or evasive.

They openly and generously expressed their attitude.

In fact,
You Longzi did not resent Situ Yuan.
In fact, the reason he took on disciples was simply because, as a personal disciple, he had a responsibility to attract more geniuses to his own peak and strengthen its power.

This is the rule and responsibility of a direct disciple, not because he wanted to take on disciples.

Therefore, he mostly taught his disciples diligently without investing too much emotion in them. The kind of father-son-like master-disciple relationship would never appear in You Longzi's case.

This is why his teaching philosophy is to respect his students' choices.

This is why he wouldn't step in to stop the other party even if he thought they were on the wrong path.

Of course,
It is precisely because of this,
When You Longzi thought Shen Changchuan's choice was highly problematic, although he frowned, he did not step forward to forcefully stop him. Instead, he wholeheartedly helped Shen Changchuan continue on the path he had chosen.

This turned out to be the right choice.

Otherwise, Shen Changchuan would probably not be where he is today.

between breaths,

Many thoughts flashed through You Longzi's mind.

of course,

At his level, even if a few thoughts flashed through his mind, he wouldn't lose his composure.

"I have no complaints or resentment towards you, but don't expect me to still have any feelings for you."

"I know the purpose of your trip, so there's no need to test me or waste any more words."

"This journey to the Southern Yue region is crucial to my path. Anyone who dares to interfere will become my enemy, a mortal foe for obstructing my path!"

"Do you understand?"

You Longzi turned his head slightly, glancing at Situ Yuan behind him out of the corner of his eye.

At that moment,

An overwhelming aura rose up, like a terrifying tsunami that overwhelmed the world in an instant!
Situ Yuan felt as if the sky before him had suddenly turned pitch black, and his mind had fallen into an endless abyss of darkness.

Wherever his eyes fell
Only that tall and magnificent figure cast a cold, emotionless gaze!

Right now,

Situ Yuan felt as if his heart was being gripped by an invisible hand, and his whole body was drenched in cold sweat, his clothes completely soaked through!
"This disciple understands, and will now take his leave!"

Situ Yuan was sweating profusely. He quickly clasped his hands in greeting, bowed his head, and took his leave.

Situ Yuan transformed into a streak of light and departed.

Before long, it disappeared into the horizon.

“Master, it seems that your actions have been discovered by those guys in the Immortal Sect.”

"I wonder if our master can withstand the pressure. Should we speed things up?"

A few moments after Situ Yuan's figure disappeared, another figure appeared.

If Shen Changchuan were here,
You will then find that,

This person was none other than Wu Tianhao, the Wu family's prodigy who had brought him into the Dragon Sky Sect back then!

At this time,
The aura emanating from the other party had actually reached the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage!
and,

Unlike the elegant young gentleman Shen Changchuan remembered,
At this moment, Wu Tianhao had a scar on his face, and his aura was more capable and sharp.

Obviously,

This fierce spirit can only be cultivated through sufficient battles and trials.

I imagine they've had quite an exciting life all these years.

"No need."

"From the very beginning, I never expected that others would not notice anything unusual."

"Don't worry, they can't interfere with me."

You Longzi kept his gaze fixed on the distant horizon, his eyes unfathomable.
