Chapter 115: Only as a Master (Fifth Update)

Yes, it's fine now.

Shen Xitong returned to Lu Ye's body, becoming a meticulous and pure system.

As for Shangguan Huanling, the system really didn't want to deal with her.

Because she was worried that this thing would lower her IQ. She had finally become smart and didn't want to become foolish again.

Shangguan Huanling knocked on the door.

Knocked.

Knocked.

...

Hmm, it seems like no one is home.

She breathed a sigh of relief. It was just as well that no one was home, so she went back.

Shangguan Huanling went back.

"What were you talking about inside?"

Sun Ruowei had secretly followed all the way, only to see Shangguan Huanling knocking on Lu Ye's door, but no one answered.

She had thought she would get some juicy gossip, but instead, she got nothing.

She couldn't hold back anymore and popped out, stopping Shangguan Huanling to ask.

"Yue Hongling said Lu Ye found a particularly beautiful woman and asked me to come see what she looks like."

"Does Yue Hongling like Lu Ye? Does Bai Qiulan also like Lu Ye? Do you like Lu Ye too? Why do you all like Lu Ye? What is Lu Ye's identity?"

A series of questions came out.

It was clear that Sun Ruowei was extremely thirsty for gossip.

"Yes, we all used to like Lu Ye..."

Bai Qiulan walked out with a dark face, looking somewhat helplessly at Sun Ruowei.

"Eat less gossip, and you'll find a lot more happiness."

Sun Ruowei gritted her teeth.

"If I don't eat gossip, I'll die!"

Bai Qiulan...

She pulled Shangguan Huanling into the barrier.

Sun Ruowei couldn't help but scratch her head, pacing back and forth.

So annoying!!!

"So? Did you see that woman?" Bai Qiulan asked eagerly.

"No!"

"Is no one paying attention to you?"

Shangguan Huanling also didn't know what was going on, "Maybe they're not in..."

"I'll go check!"

Bai Qiulan couldn't hold back any longer, she headed towards Lu Ye's residence.

Sun Ruowei had just moved a bit when a layer of frost directly froze her.

Sun Ruowei roared in her heart, Bai Qiulan, if I don't avenge this, I, Sun Ruowei, swear! Not! To! Be! Human!

When I find out everything, if I don't laugh you to death, I am not Sun! Ruo! Wei!

Bai Qiulan arrived at the door.

She took a deep breath to calm herself.

Knock.

The door opened.

A stunning face appeared before Bai Qiulan. Although Yue Hongling had described Shen Xitong as exceptionally beautiful, even with Bai Qiulan's mental preparation, the moment she truly saw her, she was struck by an indescribable awe.

Is there really such a perfect person in the world?

Shen Xitong looked Bai Qiulan up and down, her gaze lingering on Bai Qiulan's chest, a thoughtful light flashing in her eyes.

"Greetings, Master, disciple Shen Xitong."

Shen Xitong bowed lightly, holding the disciple's courtesy.

Bai Qiulan frowned, sidestepping, unwilling to accept this courtesy.

"I am not your master, and you are not my disciple, there's no need to show me such respect," Bai Qiulan said seriously.

Shen Xitong smiled lightly.

"Master jokes, disciple is now with brother, and we are deeply in love, surely we will be partners in the future. As the saying goes, marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. Since master is brother's master, then you should also be Xitong's master, so master can fully accept this courtesy."

"But you are not Lu Ye's partner!"

Bai Qiulan's face was serious.

Shen Xitong's expression was somewhat strange.

"Master, why do I not understand what you're saying? In the vastness of the nine heavens, there are countless masters and disciples, and I have never heard of a master interfering in a disciple's search for a partner."

"Does master not think that your possessiveness towards your disciple is too high?"

Bai Qiulan raised an eyebrow, her voice already filled with anger.

"As the saying goes, once a teacher, always a father. As a master, why can't I manage my disciple's search for a partner?"

"Master is right, Xitong will heed your teachings. By the way, it won't be long before I and brother hold our partner ceremony, and then we will trouble master to be the witness."

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? I said, you are not Lu Ye's partner!"

"Master, brother and I are deeply in love."

"I said I disagree!"

Shen Xitong blinked innocently.

"If Master disagrees, then you should point out the reasons for disagreement, right? Please rest assured, Master, Xitong will change."

Why disagree?

Bai Qiulan scrutinized Shen Xitong, trying to find her flaws.

But the more she looked, the more astonished she became. Flaws?

Where are the flaws?

Why is there such a perfect woman in this world?

"What is your background?" Bai Qiulan asked.

"Your disciple is the daughter of the Sect Leader of the Profound Dao Sect, with a clean background."

Profound Dao Sect?

Indeed a prestigious sect, second only to the five great sects, and a top-tier force in the Great Wilderness.

She had indeed heard occasionally that the Sect Leader of the Profound Dao Sect had a daughter, cherished like a treasure, extremely doted on, and rarely let her appear in public, fearing she might be lured away by some wandering cultivator.

A clean background.

"What is your strength?"

Bai Qiulan asked.

"Master, your disciple has just entered the Unity Dao Realm, not as advanced as Master who has reached the seventh level of Unity Dao."

"But Lu Ye has also just entered Unity Dao, our realms are similar."

Bai Qiulan carefully sensed and indeed felt the aura of Unity Dao on Shen Xitong.

A clean family background, similar realms...

Where else can she find fault?

"Master, your disciple and I are a match made in heaven. If Master insists on disagreeing, is there some hidden reason?"

Bai Qiulan gritted her teeth, expressionless.

"A disciple finding a good match should be a joyous occasion for the Master, not an opportunity for obstruction."

"Master is Master, disciple is disciple. The disciple respects the Master, the Master protects the disciple. This is the principle of the master-disciple relationship. If Master cannot find any flaws in Xitong, please, Master, bless us."

Bless...

"The etiquette of master and disciple must not be abandoned. Please, Master, know your role as Master, be a good Master, and only be a Master!"

Bai Qiulan took a step back.

These words felt like a heavy hammer, smashing into her heart.

Only be a Master.

Yes, Yue Hongling could still appear before this woman as a rival in love and engage in a battle with her.

What identity does she have now to appear before her?

Now, she only has the identity of a master.

Where is there any status like the main wife in her previous life to control what kind of partner Lu Ye finds?

To be a master, only to be a master.

Isn't this what she has always dreamed of?

But now, Shen Xitong emphasizes the word "master," which is to firmly weld her in the position of a master.

If you want to be only a master, then let you enjoy it thoroughly!

Besides being a master, don't think about anything else.

This Shen Xitong, when facing her, is not at all like when facing Yue Hongling, with full offensive power.

She is using the way of master and disciple, like a blunt knife cutting flesh, bloodily separating her from Lu Ye, and fixing it!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Avenue Bell rings at this moment.

"The Allied Races are invading, all strong members of the Great Dao Sect, prepare for battle!"

Lu Ye also opens his eyes at this moment.

His eyes are filled with intense pain.

It's finally coming!
