d to be found out.The servant still blocked him: "Your Highness, the Emperor has already gone to rest. Please come back another day."Helian Yu nonchalantly said, "Then I'll just wait here for the Empe...Tiānqí Fēng.

Inside the dwelling of Shen Wu Zun, there was a sound of dripping water from the bed.

A tall and muscular man pinned the boy beneath him, leaving him powerless to do anything but lie there. His red lips were alluring, tinged with a touch of lusty crimson at the corners of his eyes.

Si Kong Hengyu raised his hand and extended it.

Ning Shu was a little dazed, as if sensing what his master was about to do. His eyelashes trembled incessantly: "Master..." He couldn't help but turn back, his eyes filled with a hint of fear.

with a touch of pity and pleading in its tone.

The God descended, kissing his lips.

"No."

.....

Ning Shu once again fell into a drowsy sleep, unable to lift even a finger.

These days, Si Kong Hengyu would spend all his free time cultivating with him.

The white ball inside him didn't shrink at all. Instead, it grew larger and larger. When he was on the bed earlier, he had cried out to his master, begging him for help. But Si Kong Hengyu seemed not to hear his pleas.

Ning Shu couldn't help but feel a little lost. Was he supposed to stay on Tian Qifeng forever, cultivating alongside his master

Ning Shu naturally didn't want to, but Sikong Hengyu seemed to have soft-imprisoned him. There wasn't a single day he could get out of bed.

"Host," Zero seemed to have received the host's call and appeared immediately.

This is serious.

"Zero exclaimed, "Host, what's wrong with you"

Ning Shu opened her eyes and covered her body with the clothes. Her face was flushed, she hesitated for a moment, then told everything that had happened during this time to Lingling.

Lingling said: "So the host is being locked up by your master now"

It's not an exaggeration to say that this is about the word "bond," but Ning Shu was more aware of the fact that his master seemed serious when he said they would become Dao partners. But he...didn't want to cultivate together right now.

Liling couldn't help but ask, "Host, isn't double cultivation a good thing I see that Si Kong Hengyu's favorability towards you is now very high, at ninety-eight."

Ning Shu was also taken aback. She had already lived to be ninety-eight.

After hearing Ling Ling's words, he couldn't help but say, "But Master wants to practice with me every day..."

Moreover, his master would also have to practice double cultivation with him for two months, meaning that for these two months, he would have to continue practicing double cultivation with his master. How could this be possible

Even a cultivator would find such a dual cultivation method unbearable.

Ning Shu couldn't bear the mental strain more than anything, and every time he was completely vulnerable under his master's control, letting him manipulate and bully him.

...and she burst into tears.

The master wouldn't pity him; he would only make things worse.

Ning Shu pursed her lips, and couldn't help but think of Cang Ming. She couldn't help but be stunned, it had been a long time since she remembered this name, she almost forgot about that handsome young man.

Cang Ming and his master are the same person.

They are essentially not much different, but facing such a master, Ning Shu would rather face Cang Ming instead.

But he hadn't seen Cang Ming for a long time.

Ning Shu thought of how he had previously misunderstood the other party, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

....

Perhaps the boy's avoidance was too obvious. Even Kami-sama, being so benevolent, didn't force himself upon his precious disciple day and night.

Ning Shu could finally take a breath and savor a few sips of the hot soup she was holding.

He lowered his head and couldn't help but ask, "Was Cang Ming your master during the Golden Core period"

Si Kong Heng Yu paused, his outstretched hand stopped mid-air. He pointed with his fingertip: "Yes."

He raised his eyes and said, "Why suddenly bring up Master's youth"

He seamlessly shifted the concept of that thread of affection to a younger version of himself, whether intentionally or not, it was unclear.

But Ning Shu didn't notice. He was slightly startled, then said: "Master, when you were younger, you were a little different from now."

Si Kong Hengyu looked over and quietly watched the young man, saying, "What is different"

Ning Shu pursed her lips: "...His appearance is a bit different, but his temperament is still very similar." She actually wanted to say that when her master was young, he didn't have such a captivatingly cold aura.

Si Kong Hengyu remained silent. After being separated from Cang Ming for so long, he naturally didn't like using the same face as him. Besides, to avoid being discovered by others, he used a similar face instead.

Then, which do you prefer: Master when he was younger, or now

Si Kong Hengyu asked, his shallow eyes gazing at the young man.

Ning Shu lowered her head slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Master, why hasn't Cang Ming come out"

He still remembered what Cang Ming had said to him, could it be... were all the things Cang Ming said true He would eventually have to return to his master's original body.

After he spoke, the air around them seemed to grow cold for a moment.

Ning Shu fell silent, a faint awareness dawning on him that he had perhaps asked an unwise question. He shifted his gaze away in a fluster, unable to meet his Shizun's face.

For a while, Si Kong Hengyu only faintly said, "You really want to see him"

Ning Shu didn't know how to answer. He seemed to have noticed that his master wasn't very fond of him mentioning Cang Ming. But he didn't quite understand, Cang Ming was also a part of his master, they were clearly the same person.

"Master..." The boy hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Are you angry, Master"

But Si Kong Hengyu spoke up, "If you want to see him, it's not impossible."

Ning Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought for a moment and said, "Last time, I had a bit of a falling out with Cang Ming. I'd like to apologize to him, is that alright"

He thinks Cang Ming might be imprisoned in the forbidden zone and may not have returned to his original body yet.

Si Kong Hengyu's light-colored pupils looked over quietly: "Since that is the case, then you will meet tonight."

Ning Shu nodded and said, "Thank you, Master."

Sikuohengyu said nothing more.

Ning Shu couldn't immediately see the expression on his face.

....

Night fell.

Cyan Ming truly kept his promise to his master, and came as agreed. The young man's tall frame remained much the same as always.

"Cang Ming."

Ning Shu spoke.

Cang Ming looked at him and said, "What do you want from me"

Ning Shu looked at those eyes, and for a moment, she felt an indescribable shame. Perhaps because he was also her master, she pursed her lips. Seeing the other person's indifferent expression, she thought that it was normal for the other party to be angry after their previous unpleasantness.

"...I know what you said before was true."

He thought for a moment and said, "At that time, I didn't know any better. If you're still angry, then I'll apologize to you."

Cang Ming lowered his head and quietly looked at him, "How can you make amends"

Ning Shu was a bit embarrassed. He couldn't think of how to apologize for a moment. Everything he had on him was given to him by his master, and it wouldn't be good to take it out and give it away. He remembered the sword tassel he had bought before, which had been taken away by his master.

"I couldn't help but say, "When I go down the mountain, I'll bring you a gift, how about that"

"Buy another identical sword tassel" Cang Ming said faintly.ter thinking about it, he decided not to bother Shen Ji. 。So he hurried back to his place. 。...But Ning Shu hadn't expected that as soon as he opened the door, he would see a strange man in the livi...
