37, Chapter Thirty-Seven(2/3)
Zhan Ri's face froze, and Wu Gang almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
It was a bit embarrassing to cover up the sun and tighten my hands.
"I was going to make a breakthrough, but I was overly worried."
Everyone originally had some unspeakable thoughts about Ning Ji taking away Chu Jinxiao, but now they completely shut their mouths.
Another breakthrough?
If they remembered correctly, Sword Master Ning Ji was in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Now that there is a breakthrough, this is...a half-step to becoming a god?
Except for those old guys who have no trace, if Ning Ji really makes a breakthrough, he can be regarded as the number one person in the world of cultivation today.
Several people were worried, and couldn't help but feel lucky that they didn't say anything.
Ning Ji glanced at them and looked away, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Seeing that it was a breakthrough, Zhenri Zhenjun naturally didn't want to say anything. He just congratulated a few words and let him leave with his sword.
…
Before Su Fengyan's injury healed, he heard the news that Ning Ji was leaving.
He lowered his eyes and paused for a moment. Seeing his bad expression, the puppet couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you worried that you won't be able to take revenge?" He thought Su Fengyan had a grudge against Ning Ji and was worried that he wouldn't be able to take revenge after he left.
Su Fengyan lowered his eyes and coughed: "I don't bear any grudge against Ning Ji."
The puppet was a little confused.
But Su Fengyan stopped explaining.
After waving for him to go down first, he frowned.
Ning Ji is leaving.
Also, he originally came to the East China Sea just for the Kyushu Competition. If it weren't for the demon clan incident, he would have left long ago.
Thinking of this, he looked down at his wound again, tightened his hands and didn't know what he was thinking.
When the puppet finished lighting the incense and was about to leave, he suddenly asked, "Did he take Chu Jinxiao with him when he left?"
The puppet nodded as expected: "Today Sword Master Ning Ji exposed the news of his breakthrough in the palace, which shocked the group of people with evil intentions."
"Those people no longer dare to set their minds on Chu Jinxiao."
The puppet doesn't understand human emotions, so he naturally said:
"Ning Ji looks cold and unkind, but he is really kind to his only disciple."
In this situation, Ning Ji was trapped himself, with people staring at him from all directions for making mistakes, but he was still able to protect Chu Jinxiao. What he did was much better than those who looked at the kind and friendly people.
Su Fengyan thought that it was true, and felt a little complicated.
——That man really did his best for Chu Jinxiao.
He didn't believe there was such a person in the world before, but now he had to admit it.
Ning Ji is different from others. He is different from the leaders of the righteous path in the world of cultivation, those people who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality.
He lowered his eyes and couldn't see his expression clearly. The puppet felt that his master seemed to be acting strangely since he was injured this time. But he couldn't say anything and just left.
After a long time, Su Fengyan looked outside.
Return to the Yuqing Sect?
He muttered to himself.
…
Chu Jinxiao practiced sword practice all day again today.
He worked day and night, and he seemed to be a different person these days. Although he was hurt by his master's words that night, Chu Jinxiao did not give up his efforts.
Long Yuan's incident made Chu Jinxiao more clearly aware of the gap between him and his master.
He knew that it was enough that the master didn't hate him now, and he had to work hard to catch up with him.
Only when you catch up with the Master can you be worthy of standing beside him.
Chu Jinxiao tightened his hands and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
Ning Ji noticed his sleeplessness many times. But he just frowned and didn't say anything.
After Chu Jinxiao put away his sword, Ning Ji said calmly: "You can follow me back to Jiejian Peak tomorrow."
He stood under the moon with a cold face.
Chu Jinxiao also heard about Master's breakthrough. Just as he was about to say something, Ning Ji said again: "After returning to Jie Jian Peak, I will use a puppet to replace you to block those people's sight, so that everyone thinks you are in Jie Jian Peak."
The meaning of his words is very obvious. After returning to Jianfeng, he can do what he wants to do.
Chu Jinxiao was stunned. He raised his head and saw his master looking at him. Ning Ji frowned, but finally said: "Long Yuan is extremely dangerous, so be careful."
His eyes were still as cold as ice, and this instruction seemed to be just said casually.
Chu Jinxiao tightened his hands and felt warm in his heart.
When the master left, he suddenly said: "Thank you, master."
Ning Ji paused for a moment and nodded.
He had made it clear to Chu Jinxiao before, and he wouldn't care what he said now.
Besides...he already had a plan in mind.
When Chu Jinxiao can protect himself, let him leave.
He won't stay in Jiejian Peak for too long.
Ning Ji caressed the egg in his hand, paused for a moment, then turned and left.
Kong Ling looked at Chu Jinxiao and then at Ning Ji, vaguely guessing some of his thoughts.
The longer he spent with Ning Ji, the more he felt the loneliness in him.
He seemed to be used to being alone, and he only planned to be alone in the future.
He vaguely grabbed something, looked at the man's cold face, and couldn't help but pause.
What kind of environment can cultivate a person like Ning Ji?
Under his mask... is it as cold as his fingertips?
When the finger was retracted, Kong Ling frowned and thought.
He didn't realize that when he looked at Chu Jinxiao during this period, his attention would always go to Ning Ji unconsciously. When he came to his senses, he shook his head again.
…
The second day.
Several people sent Ning Ji off outside the city.
Sword Master wants to return to Jianfeng, so Xie Feng naturally goes with him. He only recognizes Sword Master now. Although he is a disciple of Yuqing Sect, these things have little to do with him.
After he said goodbye to Sun-Concealing Lord, he left with Sword Master.
Chu Jinxiao was not surprised to see him.
The master had promised to give him a sword before, indicating that he admired Xie Feng, so it would not be surprising to take him with him when he returned to Jianjian Peak.
But what surprised him was.
——The owner of Guyue Tower is also here.
Xie Yuqing looked at the scenery on the cloud boat and nodded when he saw Chu Jinxiao.
Chu Jinxiao tightened his sword and nodded in response. When he saw Xie Yuqing, he was startled, and his previous composure because his master didn't hate him was gone.
Especially...when I saw Master playing chess with Xie Yuqing.
The two of them are more like people from the same world.
He tightened his hand and turned away when Xie Feng glanced at him.
Ning Ji, who had just picked up the black chess piece over there, turned around if he noticed something.
"What's wrong with Sword Master?"
Xie Yuqing saw him raising his head and looked in his direction, but saw nothing.
The Yunzhou drove quietly, and Ning Ji looked back.
"Nothing, keep going."
Xie Yuqing saw that his face was calm, so he didn't ask any more questions and made a move.
His chess style is different from his appearance. He plays a decisive and decisive chess style.
Ning Ji was a little surprised when he first played chess with him.
Xie Yuqing said: "I sincerely have friendship with the sword master."
