cular, was terrifying.Bai Lu even had a moment where he thought, Ning Shu must definitely be killed by Ji Huai. This intense excitement diluted some of the fear in his heart.He endured the immense pai...Cang Ming remained silent, his aura as still and icy as if frozen. He stared intently at the young man before him, then reached out and grasped his arm, asking, "What exactly have you done"

Ning Shu didn't speak, his anger made his whole body tremble. Then, with a pale face, he shoved the other person away: "Don't play dumb anymore! You picked me up and kissed me... touched me..."

The young man, when he got to this point, felt only shame. His cheeks flushed a lovely crimson, and his eyes were slightly misty with anger.

Then she composed herself somewhat: "Cang Ming, I owe you my life. I can pretend nothing happened and won't tell Master. From now on, let's just not see each other again."

"I don't want to see you again."

Cang Ming stood rooted to the spot, the hand that had been swatted away tingling slightly. The young man was clearly truly angered, his eyes filled with a touch of coldness and disappointment as he looked at him.

His expression grew increasingly cold: "That's not me."

Ning Shu didn't know why he still refused to admit it. She closed her eyes slightly, not wanting to dwell on it anymore, and simply said: "Regardless of whether it is or not, don't come find me again."

Cang Ming's expression was icy. He certainly didn't want to be scapegoated over and over again. Although Si Kong Hengyu was also him, he was just a part of his emotions that had been extracted. He could only be considered a fragment within the other's body.

But thinking about it, he hadn't taken any advantage. On the contrary, he had repeatedly taken the blame for Sirin Yuheng, this hypocrite.

Everything good was taken by this deity.

He got nothing but trouble, and even his sword tassel was stolen.

"I told you, it was me, but it wasn't me. Why don't you believe me"

Ning Shu's brain also quieted down somewhat. He pursed his lips: "You want to cultivate together with me."

"I'll admit, that night was my fault. But what happened after...it wasn't me." A hint of jealousy flashed in his pale eyes. "They just used my identity and appearance."

How could Ning Shu only listen to his one-sided words: “You forced me to do what a courtesan would do to a demonic cultivator last night.”

Cang Ming: "..."

His long fingers tightened slightly: "A brothel"

Ning Shudao: "If someone else were impersonating you, how could they possibly know the ins and outs of that matter He's not a fool."

Cang Ming remained silent for a long time before saying, “Because as long as he wants to, my memories can be shared.” However, Si Kong Hengyu’s memories, he couldn’t share, because he wasn’t the main subject.

Though reluctant, it is true.

Ning Shu looked over a little dazed, unable to understand the other person's words.

"Cang Ming stared at his face and said, "Haven't you always been curious why I was locked up" He paused, then calmly said, "Because I am just a trace of affection from Si Kong Hengyu. He has kept me imprisoned for two hundred years."

Two hundred years ago, he crossed the tribulation. He almost went insane from demonic energy, and out of desperation, he pulled that thread of love out. But he couldn't hide it, so I was born.

"In the secret realm, it wasn't me who saved you. It wasn't me who forced you..."

As for who it is, he has made it quite clear.

Ning Shu probably understood, he widened his eyes slightly, showing an expression of unbelievable shock and astonishment.

Seeing this, Cang Ming spoke out, “I warned you a long time ago.” He said, “Si Kong Hengyu is a hypocrite. You didn’t believe me.”

Ning Shu interrupted him: "Why should I believe you"

He was incredibly confused, his first reaction was disbelief rather than shock. He thought of his master's cold and ruthless appearance, yet he had been so kind to him.

Even if Ning Shu were a wolf, she would have been domesticated.

On the contrary, Cang Ming said those words to him in the brothel. He even made a second attempt to get physical and wanted to practice dual cultivation with him. How could Ning Shu possibly believe the other party's one-sided account at first He was full of doubts.

Even felt this was Cang Ming's frame-up.

That's right, Cang Ming has always been cold and even resentful towards his master. Perhaps it's because he holds a grudge against him for locking him away in the forbidden grounds. Ning Shu thought of this, and her tone became wary: "Master is so good to me, do you think this will work Trying to sow discord between us"

Cang Ming was extremely upset.

But his handsome face was expressionless, and he only whispered: "Why would I lie to you I have no idea what happened in the secret realm. I know nothing about last night's events either."

"Don't you think Si Kong Hengyu has been a little too good to you"

Ning Shu's heart sank when she heard his words.

But soon, he came to his senses. How could he question his master His master practiced the Way of Unfeeling. The venerable God Supreme, what he wanted, he got. Moreover, he was the other's disciple.

How could Si Kong Hengyu possibly....

Ning Shu raised her eyes, her brows and eyes cold as she said: "Go away, I don't believe you. If you dare to slander my master again, I won't be polite."

Cang Ming remained silent, staring at him for a long moment before turning and leaving.

Before leaving, she left a sentence: "Whether you believe it or not is fine, but if Si Kong Heng Yu had no ulterior motives, even as heartless and cold as he was, there's no way he could be so good to his disciple that it seemed abnormal."

....

That day Cang Ming's words left a deep impression on Ning Shu's heart.

He was shaken but quickly regained his composure. How could his master possibly be that kind of person

If Ning Shu truly suspected him, then Si Kong Hengyu's affection for him would have been wasted.

"Why is your mind so absent today" a voice said.

Ning Shu came back to her senses and sheathed her sword. Then, she pursed her lips and whispered, "Disciple knows her mistake."

A man clad in snow-white robes walked over, his steps seeming to tread upon empty air. An aura of immense power surrounded him. Sikong Hengyu's cultivation base was incredibly profound, and to this day, no one knew the true extent of his mastery.

Ning Shu only sensed a chill of frost and snow approaching.

Then he was momentarily stunned.

Si Kong Heng lowered his eyes and wiped the cold sweat from the boy's forehead, saying coldly, "Is something bothering you"

Ning Shu's expression was a little dazed. He subconsciously felt a strange sensation. He and his master... weren't they a little too close These actions had always seemed ordinary in the past, but now, they seemed to carry a different meaning.

The young man involuntarily took a step back and said respectfully, "Nothing, Master. The disciple is a little tired."

Si Kong Hengyu remained silent, merely standing there, gazing at his disciple.

Ning Shu's gaze met those pale, light eyes, and his heart tightened involuntarily. He quickly shifted his gaze away, but then he saw something, causing his pupils to narrow slightly.

That was a red sword-like plume.

At this moment, she was hidden discreetly at the waist of the divine sovereign.

However, the young man seemed to have his eyes burned, quickly retracting his gaze. Then his throat tightened, wanting to say something, but unable to utter a word. He could only feel that his heart was in turmoil at this moment.

That tassel, he remembered when Cang Ming had asked for it, he had given it to him.

How could this be in Master's hands

Ning Shu was filled with doubts, but they were quickly dismissed by him. Such a simple sword tassel couldn't signify anything.

But at this moment, he was unable to face Si Kong Hengyu. He could only barely pull his thoughts back, and said in a low voice: "Master, this disciple will take his leave first. Tomorrow.... " He hesitated for a moment and continued: "Tomorrow, this disciple will practice three thousand sword swings as scheduled. With Master not here, this disciple will not slack off."

Si Kong Hengyu's expression remained unreadable. He said indifferently, "Do you mean that from now on, I won't need you here anymore"

Ning Shu moved his lips and said, "Disciple only feels that Master spending time on disciple is a waste." He felt a bit disheartened in his heart, but he said with his mouth that he believed it.

But in my heart, there was still a hint of doubt.

That's why I feel uneasy and timid.

Si Kong Hengyu gazed at him for a full quarter of an hour, then coldly turned away and said, "This master knows. You dislike this master's constant guidance. This master understands. Since you dislike it, I will not bother you any further from now on."

After the other person turned and walked away, Ning Shu felt a surge of regret in her heart.

He instantly became disheartened and lost.

Sikong Hengyu is a god, and everyone in Tianzongmen has to give him way. Even demon cultivators, when they hear his name, have to show respect. But how could someone like that possibly do...that kind of thing

Ning Shu stood there for a long time, especially since Si Kong Heng Yu had been so kind to him.

He couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt in his heart. Tomorrow, he should go to find his master and apologize properly.

Ning Shu, having figured things out, also felt a bit relieved.

Just a short while later, Ning Shu received an invitation from Zhou Wu Chang. After all, the two hadn't seen each other in two years. Ning Shu hastily tidied up her attire and went to meet Zhou Wu Chang.

Zhou Wu Chang said enviously, "Your cultivation has improved so quickly. You've reached the middle stage of foundation building in just two years! Your fame has already spread beyond the sect gates."

Ning Shu heard this, and her heart felt a bit guilty.

He pursed his lips, then told the truth: “It's all thanks to Master.”

Zhou Wu Chang said nonchalantly, "If one lacks talent and aptitude, even the finest treasures will be useless." He then scrutinized the young man from head to toe. The boy now stood tall and handsome, with clear and bright eyes.

She has a refined temperament, and her features are becoming even more delicate and beautiful.

Zhou Wu Chang couldn't describe what kind of temperament it was, he didn't even feel this way when he saw his fellow disciples from within the sect. But he felt that Master Ning in front of him seemed very much in need of affection

He quickly retracted his wandering thoughts and said, "By the way, you haven't seen Liu Shumei for so long, have you Why don't you go see her"

Ning Shu hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said: "No... I don't want to cause misunderstanding from others."

His face was pale, and he didn't look well.

Zhou Wu Chang noticed and couldn't help but ask a few questions.

Ning Shu shook her head.

Zhou Wu Chang thought again of Cang Ming, who had been with him when they left the mountains, and asked about his whereabouts.

Ning Shu's expression changed slightly, and she said with a hint of coldness, "I don't know."

Zhou Wu Chang said, "The Divine Venerable is truly too lazy to choose a name. This demonic beast's name is the same as his Nascent Soul stage dharma name, Cang Ming."ursed 。Mrs. Jiang found a place to sit down: "You've made up your mind, then" 。“Mr. Jiang looked at Jiang Xiao, “Did you hear Quickly apologize to Aunt Wang… then, that’s it. We can pretend nothing...
