On top of the thousand steps, next to the threshold of the main peak hall, there is a small wooden table and a pot of tea.
A mature woman who dug out her eyes twenty years ago is sitting cross-legged on a futon, holding in her arms a fat white cat with hair as thick as snow.
Opposite her was Tantai Jinse, who had recently returned to Ziwei Palace.
At this moment, the master and the disciple were all focused on the Red Luan star that caused the strange phenomena in the world.
Tantai Jinse was anxious, so anxious that he had no master.
She was worried that Suning, the young man who made ripples in her heart, would die in this Hongluan disaster that he should not have suffered.
Xiao Xiuyan, on the other hand, was uncharacteristically calm.
Drinking tea, playing with the cat, and asking my disciples about their daily routine in Kyoto.
Until Kunlun's world-shaking sword suddenly appeared, her face finally lost its calmness and indifference.
"Meow."
The big white cat, which had always been extremely well-behaved in front of Xiao Xiuyan, felt pain and ran away in embarrassment.
Hiding in a dark corner, shivering and chirping miserably.
"master."
Tantai Jinse suddenly stood up and begged with a hint of sadness: "Can we help him?"
"Headmaster Ji is fighting for his life. After this, the end will surely come."
"Xuanmen's blood-devouring killing array loses the people in the main array. It's nothing to worry about."
"But, Yunzong..."
"Suning is too busy to compete."
"This will cost him his life and Lingxi's life."
Xiao Xiuyan couldn't move her eyes away. Her focus, the place where her heart and mind were focused, was only on Kunlun.
On that long sword, on Ji Xuanqing's body that appeared in her mind.
The past is swept away.
She couldn't explain the unexplained sadness, the bad fate she had let go of.
"Why bother?"
She lowered her head and said softly: "Why bother?"
"master."
Tantai Jinse knelt down with tears in her eyes and said, "Disciple, please help Suning."
Xiao Xiuyan was unmoved, secretly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, raised her head and said, "How can I help?"
"You only saw Xuanmen and Yunzong teaming up with Liu Sansheng, but you didn't see Buddhism waiting for an opportunity."
“I didn’t see Suning, who changed his name and transformed into Tesco, as a thorn in the side of the Taoist.”
"God-given opportunity, do you think Blind Tong will sit back and watch the tiger fight?"
"No, he won't."
"He will definitely fish in troubled waters and use the power of the three parties to find ways to get rid of Yi Laomo, who has turned the Six Meridians of China upside down."
"If the crape myrtle does not move, it will be fine. If it moves, it will represent its future stance."
"Causing trouble for no reason has attracted the attention of the three schools of Xuanmen, Yun Zong and Buddhism, as well as the embarrassment of Liu Sansheng and Blind Tong."
"This fire is really too strong."
"It's so prosperous that I can't stand it as a teacher, and the foundation of Ziwei is not stable."
Tantai Jinse's delicate body trembled and said: "How could it be?"
Xiao Xiuyan sneered: "Why not?"
"With your intelligence, it is not difficult to see this clearly."
"Being confused by emotions makes you confused and ridiculous."
Tantai Jinse said in shame: "Disciple, I want to save him."
Xiao Xiuyan asked: "Even if you bet the whole crape myrtle, you won't hesitate?"
Tantai Jinse hesitated slightly and stopped talking.
Xiao Xiuyan picked up the teapot, refilled it with tea, and sighed quietly: "Jinse, you lost."
"Even if there is no destined marriage, there is no special fate of the so-called true dragon and true phoenix."
