Looking at the silent scene below the stage, Xu Canghai stood up with a smile and said, "Wendong, your swordsmanship is really strong, capable of both offense and defense, changing the ordinary perception of swordsmanship. I wonder if you’ve nad it yet?"
Xu Wendong bowed and replied, "Please give it a na, Master!"
Xu Canghai wore a bitter smile, as he wasn’t good at naming.
He then turned to Si Youyou and said, "Junior sister, why don’t you help Wendong na this swordsmanship?"
Si Youyou pondered for a mont and said, "Using water in the sword, let’s call it the Water Droplet Sword Technique!"
Xu Wendong said, "Good."
"Co, let’s continue the apprenticeship ceremony!" Xu Canghai let out a loud laugh; many people had previously opposed his exception of accepting Xu Wendong as a disciple.
Now, Xu Wendong had proven his ability.
Who dared to have any opinions?
"Master, please have a cup of tea!"
"Mistress, please have a cup of tea!"
The apprenticeship ceremony wasn’t complicated: kneeling, changing the way of address, and serving tea.
Though the process was simple, for Xu Wendong, calling her Mistress was really hard to utter.
But now, he had no choice.
Si Youyou also took out a yellow storage bag, containing a gift she prepared for Xu Wendong—several hundred spirit stones.
Besides this, she really didn’t know what Xu Wendong needed, since he had spiritual artifacts and powerful cultivation techniques.
Spirit stones could not only help him cultivate, but also set up formations.
The apprenticeship ceremony concluded.
Xu Wendong said to Xu Canghai and Si Youyou, "Master, Mistress, your disciple has other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now!"
He still had to go to Jade Maiden Palace.
After all, he had an appointnt with several beautiful senior sisters at Jade Maiden Palace, and if he didn’t go, they would surely be unhappy.
When he t them at the Nine Provinces elite competition, they certainly wouldn’t treat him well.
"Alright." Xu Canghai said, "Ensure to consolidate the Water Droplet Sword Technique after returning. This swordsmanship is extraordinary and can help you achieve excellent results in the Nine Provinces elite competition."
Actually, Xu Canghai felt reluctant to see Xu Wendong leave because, in his view, today’s farewell might be a final goodbye.
After all, his end was near, and he might not live to see Xu Wendong return!
"Master, here’s a Spirit-awakening Pill I crafted earlier, perhaps it can extend your lifespan for so ti."
Xu Wendong took out the Spirit-awakening Pill he crafted earlier.
Xu Canghai was shocked inside, not expecting Xu Wendong to actually craft Spirit-awakening Pills, all with nine pill patterns.
Ten Spirit-awakening Pills could completely extend his life by fifty years!
When Si Youyou saw those Spirit-awakening Pills, she trembled inside, her gaze at Xu Wendong filled with deep resentnt.
She hadn’t expected Xu Wendong could craft such elixirs.
It made her feel a mix of emotions.
Because, in her view, if Xu Wendong had brought out such elixirs earlier, there would have been no need for dual cultivation with him!
"Master, Mistress, take care!"
Xu Wendong bowed and cupped his hands to the two, then a longsword appeared under his feet, transforming into a brilliant flash, flying away from Sword Pavilion.
He needed to go to the place that haunted all n’s dreams—Jade Maiden Palace!
Although other n could not enter.
But he was Jade Maiden Palace’s benefactor.
He had special privilege to enter Jade Maiden Palace!
Hehe!
Just as Xu Wendong flew over a hundred kiloters from Sword Pavilion, a familiar voice echoed from behind him: "Mischievous disciple, where are you going!"
Xu Wendong turned his head.
A familiar figure ca into view.
It was his mistress, Si Youyou.
She wore a snowy white long dress, like clouds woven together, gracefully floating.
The dress gently swayed in the breeze, resembling a flowing galaxy cascading into the mortal world.
Her face was exquisitely beautiful, as if crafted from jade, captivating at first sight.
Her eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like morning stars, lips like petals, each detail exuding endless allure.
She treaded on a red longsword, its blade gleaming cold light, seemingly narrating its extraordinary origin.
The longsword complented her deanor, adding to her majesty and nobility.
Her steps were elegantly composed, as if each step left a faint fragrance in the air.
Her beauty carried a hint of icy aura, resembling an unattainable iceberg, intimidating at first glance. Her gaze was deep and indifferent, seemingly able to discern every falsehood and lie in the world.
However, precisely this fusion of ice and beauty gave her a unique charm.
At that mont, everything around dimd in comparison; she alone captivated all, becoming the most dazzling focal point between heaven and earth.
Xu Wendong’s eyes showed a trace of embarrassnt; he imdiately stopped mid-air and bowed in salute: "Mistress, why are you here?"
Si Youyou’s eyes were full of frost: "You clearly can craft Spirit-awakening Pills. Why didn’t you tell earlier?"
Xu Wendong knew she ca to demand answers, looking nervous: "Mistress, I···"
Si Youyou erupted in terrifying killing intent: "You did it on purpose, didn’t you?"
"You didn’t say anything just to dual cultivate with , right?"
"Because apart from dual cultivation with you, there’s no other way to extend Brother’s life."
"Xu Wendong, you are truly shaless!"
"Mistress, it’s not like you imagine!" Xu Wendong said anxiously: "Yes, I can craft Spirit-awakening Pills, but last night I drank too much, and thus forgot the Spirit-awakening Pills could extend Master’s life."
He truly felt wronged; the alcohol in Sword Pavilion was potent, causing his head to ache severely.
Hence, he simply didn’t recall the matter.
Seeing Si Youyou’s face unchanged, Xu Wendong raised his right hand and said, "I, Xu Wendong, swear to the heavens, every word I said is true; if there’s a single lie, may I be struck by lightning···"
"Alright, alright!" Si Youyou sighed softly, interrupting Xu Wendong’s words: "I trust you then!"
Xu Wendong stubbornly said: "No, I can’t let Mistress reluctantly trust , because I truly forgot about crafting Spirit-awakening Pills yesterday."
Everyone has their unwavering beliefs.
Xu Wendong was no exception; he didn’t want Si Youyou to look at him with colored glasses, nor did he want to be wronged.
Saying this, Xu Wendong took another vow.
"It’s Mistress’s mistake; Mistress shouldn’t have wronged you!" Si Youyou’s eyes showed a hint of guilt, fortunately, she was soone who admitted faults and expressed apologies to Xu Wendong.
After resolving the misunderstanding, Xu Wendong reluctantly smiled and said, "Mistress, let’s part ways for now. After I finish participating in Nine Provinces elite competition, I’ll co to Sword Pavilion to greet you and Master!"
Saying this, he turned to leave by sword.
Yet at this mont, Si Youyou called to him: "Wait!"
Xu Wendong turned back and politely asked: "Mistress, is there anything else?"
Si Youyou’s face quickly flushed crimson, looking alluring: "Don’t you want to know if last night, after our dual cultivation, I had any signs of breakthrough?"
Xu Wendong cooperatively asked: "Did you feel any signs of breakthrough?"
Si Youyou shook her head.
Xu Wendong then said: "What should we do?"
Si Youyou’s seductive gaze was like silk: "Why don’t we dual cultivate again?"
