Chapter 18 Meeting the Great Gu Master
Chapter 18 Meeting the Great Gu Master
"Really? Shuyi's back!"
In a dimly lit room, a Miao woman, whose appearance had aged somewhat, looked at Ah Xiong kneeling before her and murmured, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
This person is the contemporary Gu Master of Qinghe Gu Village in western Hunan, and also the person with the highest status in the entire Miao village.
To be honest, after Wei Shuyi disappeared, she sent people to search for her, but she didn't know who had erased all the clues, and she couldn't find a single trace.
(Zhao Yifan: I was only doing this for my wife's safety. I'm sorry for the trouble it caused!)
It was after that that the Grand Gu Master had to accept the fact that his carefully nurtured disciple, the next generation of Grand Gu Master successor, was very likely already dead.
Therefore, the Grand Gu Master began to intensify his training of Wei Shufen.
After all, Wei Shufen's talent was no less than her elder sister's. If she were to be properly trained, she could be trained to become a powerful Gu Master before she died.
However, the Great Gu Master did not expect that Wei Shuyi would actually return alive. How could he not be happy?
"Master Gu, although my junior sister has returned, she has married an outsider, this..."
Previously, Ah Xiong would have insisted on capturing Wei Shuyi and handing her over to the Grand Gu Master for disposal.
But after being struck by Zhang Zhiwei's thunder magic once, Ah Xiong felt that their way of dealing with the supernatural beings outside didn't have to be so simple and brutal.
The Grand Gu Master glanced at his disciple and shook his head slightly.
This disciple had average talent and a very simple personality, so the Great Gu Master could easily see what Ah Xiong was thinking.
"Let's not rush Shuyi's matter. We should listen to her own opinion on how to handle it. Besides, I also want to see what kind of charm the man who can win over my disciple possesses."
The Grand Gu Master spoke softly, the flickering candlelight reflecting in her eyes, which shimmered with an unusual brilliance.
……
"Mom, this isn't fair! I want to sleep with my older sister!"
Wei Shufen was expressing her protest to her mother.
"Alright, you've traveled for so many days, go and rest. I'm taking this little guy with me."
Shi Nanhua picked up Xiao Shufen, gave Zhao Yifan and the others a gentle smile, and then gave the three of them the largest room in the house.
"Ha, I'm going outside to look at the stars, the night view is beautiful tonight!"
As Zhang Zhiwei spoke, he flipped over and jumped out of the window, disappearing from sight.
After so many days, Zhang Zhiwei naturally understood Zhao Yifan's habits, so he would stay far away every night, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get a good rest.
Seeing this, Zhao Yifan didn't care. He grabbed one of his wives in each hand and began their nightly "cultivation."
"Mom, they seem to be arguing, it's so noisy!"
"Sleeping between my parents," Wei Shufen said innocently.
Upon hearing this, Shi Nanhua felt somewhat embarrassed. She glanced at her husband, who was already fast asleep, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Judging from this, Shuyi married quite well!"
As she spoke, Shi Nanhua glanced at her slender fingers, a hint of sorrow flashing in her eyes.
……
"It seems you've already made up your mind!"
Seeing Wei Shuyi walk in and kneel down in front of him without saying a word, a hint of helplessness flashed in the Great Gu Master's eyes.
Although Wei Shuyi didn't say anything, the Grand Gu Master already understood her meaning.
"I'm sorry, Great Gu Master, I want to walk my own path."
Wei Shuyi said.
Upon hearing this, the Great Gu Master fell silent for a moment. Although she had been mentally prepared, hearing the answer directly from her favorite disciple still left her feeling quite uncomfortable.
Turning to look at the boy beside Wei Shuyi, the Great Gu Master's lips twitched.
Indeed, even the Great Gu Master did not expect that the husband chosen by his disciple would be such a young man.
What is this called?
Oh, it seems to be what those people outside are saying: an old cow eating young grass!
"Shuyi, you go out first, he stays!"
"That's what the Grand Gu Master said."
"Master Gu Master, I..."
Upon hearing that the Grand Gu Master intended to leave Zhao Yifan behind alone, Wei Shufen felt a surge of anxiety.
"Alright, Shuyi, you can go out first. I feel that the Great Gu Master is not hostile to me. Go outside and think about where to take me to play later."
Zhao Yifan interrupted Wei Shuyi, who was about to say something.
Upon hearing this, Wei Shuyi's face showed a conflicted expression. In the end, she bit her lip and left.
……
"Junior sister, how was it? The Great Gu Master didn't give you any trouble?"
As Wei Shuyi stepped out of the room, she was met by Ah Xiong, who had just walked over.
Looking at Ah Xiong, Wei Shuyi, who was already feeling troubled, became even more annoyed.
The next moment, Wei Shuyi looked at Ah Xiong and said, "Senior Brother Ah Xiong, it's been a long time. How about we have a spar?"
"Alright, I've improved quite a bit recently. Although I can't beat that Taoist priest, you'd better be careful, junior sister."
Ah Xiong said with a confident look.
However, Ah Xiong had no idea how much he would regret this decision.
After all, how could he have imagined that Wei Shuyi's natal Gu worm would improve so much during this period!
There was no way around it; although the nightly "spiritual practice" was arduous, the rewards were immense.
Although most of the immortal energy was absorbed by Wei Shuyi herself, even the tiny bit of immortal energy that was separated was enough to greatly benefit Wei Shuyi's natal Gu worm.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Ah Xiong covered his swollen and painful cheek, looking incredulously at the colorful bee that was obediently rubbing against Wei Shuyi's face.
"Junior sister, when did your natal Gu worm reach the level of spiritual communication?"
Ah Xiong originally thought that he had made great progress during this period, and that even if he couldn't win against his genius junior sister, he could at least remain undefeated.
However, as soon as they started fighting, Ah Xiong knew he was wrong, terribly wrong!
Wei Shuyi's natal Gu worm is a seven-colored queen bee.
It possesses seven types of toxins, and its speed and defense are both top-notch.
The only drawback is that the Queen Bee is extremely difficult to tame; even a genius like Wei Shuyi would find it hard to completely tame her.
This time, Wei Shuyi also followed the instructions of the Great Gu Master and went out to train, in order to completely tame the Seven-Colored Bee Queen through the tempering of the mortal world.
Unexpectedly, Wei Shuyi had an accident shortly after leaving home.
No one expected that Wei Shuyi would be able to return safely.
Moreover, Ah Xiong discovered that Wei Shuyi not only escaped danger and returned safely, but also benefited from the misfortune by completely taming the seven-colored queen bee.
In fact, judging from the Seven-Colored Bee Queen's performance just now, it seems to have evolved and reached the "spiritual" realm that Ah Xiong has always dreamed of!
"good!"
Wei Shuyi stroked the head of the seven-colored queen bee and said without joy or sorrow.
To be honest, this was the first time Wei Shuyi had used her natal Gu worm since her recovery, and she was quite satisfied with its performance.
"It seems my guess was right. Every time I cultivate with my husband, it seems to improve my strength. It seems I can no longer complain about the hardship."
As if she had thought of something, an unnatural blush appeared on Wei Shuyi's face.
