He smiled and said, "These two are the elders who protect me. I see that the girl has no Spiritual Power fluctuations, but she can sit firmly in this Imperial City. This State of Mind makes me admire me a little."
"You can't sit down without Spiritual Power? Great Li Which law stipulates that mortals must stand while eating?"
Su Yueli glanced at him sideways, grabbed the wine bottle and took a big sip.
Shen Huai'an was completely stunned by this meal.
If it were an ordinary cultivator, I am afraid that this ungrateful mortal would have been slapped to death by now.
But Shen Huai'an has been practicing hard for two hundred years. Although his Daoist heart is strong, he is like a giant baby with a blank sheet of paper in terms of human relations and sophistication.
In his eyes, everyone around him was following him and fearing him, but the masked woman in front of him treated him like an ordinary idiot.
This wonderful sense of contrast made him not only let down his guard, but also felt that the other person was very sincere.
"The girl is quick to talk, but she has lost her cliché."
Shen Huai'an laughed at himself, took the initiative to pick up the teacup and toasted Su Yueli: "Azure Moon Sect Shen Huai'an, what do you call this girl?"
Under the mask, Su Yueli smiled faintly.
He picked up the wine glass and lightly touched his tea cup in the air, making a crisp sound.
"Qingli."
Su Yueli took a sip of wine with deep eyes.
After two hundred years of cause and effect, this superficial friendship has finally been established naturally.
Then, Su Yueli glanced not far away from the corner of his eye.
There were two ordinary old men sitting in the corner with their eyes closed and concentrating.
Those are the personal bodyguards assigned by the Azure Moon Sect to Shen Huai'an, two genuine Ninth Realm overhauls.
Making small moves under the nose of such an old monster, if you are not careful, you will end up searching for souls and lighting sky lanterns.
Su Yueli forced himself to calm down and quickly thought of words in his mind.
She put down the tea cup, a look of just the right amount of wonder and curiosity appeared on her pretty face, and pretended to speak casually:
"Speaking of which, when I was traveling around the world in my early years, I once passed by the area near the Azure Moon Sect. At that time, I often heard about the reputation of the young sect master. When monks from thousands of miles around mentioned the three words Shen Huai'an, who wouldn't give a thumbs up?"
"At that time, I was thinking, what kind of beautiful place is it that can raise a person like the young sect master? I wonder what the scenery of the young sect master's hometown was like when he was a mortal? Are there any interesting things that I can learn about?"
Su Yueli rehearsed these words in his mind no less than a hundred times.
The tone of voice was precisely controlled, with a hint of a female cultivator's admiration for a strong man, and it also sounded like a chat that was rushed here in a hurry.
She would never dare to ask too directly. Eternal Life Immortal cultivators on the road are most taboo about cause and effect. Inquiring into other people's mundane pasts is inherently sensitive. She must package her motives as pure curiosity.
Shen Huai'an After hearing this, the chopsticks used to pick up vegetables paused slightly.
He raised his head and looked at Su Yueli, with a self-deprecating smile on his handsome face.
The smile was a little cold and dull, as if this topic touched some uncomfortable parts of his memory.
"Fellow Daoist, you think highly of me. What a reputation, it's just for the sect to build momentum."
Shen Huai'an shook his head, his voice carrying a hint of twilight that did not belong to his age. "Two hundred years ago, the sect master detected that I was pregnant with Heavenly Bone in my body, and from the day I was brought back to the sect, my path to immortality was doomed."
"For the past two hundred years, I have almost been in seclusion in the deepest secret room of the sect. Every day when I open my eyes, I am filled with Spirit Gathering Formation and endless pills. When I close my eyes, I am running Cultivation Method. I have never stepped out of the sect, let alone appreciate any ordinary scenery."
Hearing the words "solitary retreat", Su Yueli's mind sank slightly.
Having stayed at home for two hundred years, this is not a young sect leader. This is simply regarded as the core technology of the sect and is being refreshed at a certain point.
Eternal Life The sect that has been watching for a long time is best at cultivating Dao Soldiers or the furnace tripod in this way of harvesting the best from the lake.
Su Yueli steadied his mind and clenched his fingers slightly under his long sleeves.
She deliberately showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and a bit of exploration, and laughed softly, "It turns out that the young sect leader has been practicing hard. He is really firm in his Daoism. I think his relatives and friends are also doing well."
Hearing these words, the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Su Yueli's eyes were fixed on Shen Huai'an.
She is betting that Shen Huai'an still retains the earthly family love from back then deep in her heart.
As long as there is a slight fluctuation in his eyes, even a little bit of guilt or panic, she can confirm that the person in front of her is still the same boy back then.
However, Shen Huai'an's reaction made Su Yueli feel like falling into an ice cave.
Hearing this, what flashed in Shen Huai'an's eyes was a trace of imperceptible indifference, and... an almost absolute confusion.
It was not a faked look of confusion, but the kind of look one would have when looking at a stone or an animal on the side of the road.
He shook his head and said coldly, "The common people are all ants. I Dao Entry was too early, and the memory of the common people has long been cut off and forgotten."
"However, I do have an older brother, but the road to spiritual cultivation is long, and only the great road is eternal. The lifespan of a mortal is only a few dozen years, and now I am afraid that he has long been turned into a handful of loess. This is meaningless."
The young man's tone was as calm as water, as if his brother Shen Qing'an were just a meaningless syllable.
Su Yueli looked at his unruffled eyes and was completely unsure whether this guy was pretending to be stupid or whether he was really being completely concealed by the Azure Moon Sect master and was being treated as an emotionless training tool.
If he was just pretending, then this former village boy was so cold-blooded that it would make one's scalp numb.
Can two hundred years really completely wipe out a person's conscience and blood ties to this extent?
Could he even throw away his own brother as trash?
If he wasn't just pretending... then Azure Moon Sect's methods would be too terrifying.
After cutting off the cause and effect, the Shen Huai'an in front of us may be just a puppet wearing the skin of Shen Huai'an.
A huge chill shot straight from the soles of the feet to the Tianling Cap. Su Yueli suppressed his turbulent thoughts and warned himself to hold on tight and never collapse.
The current Shen Huai'an is an extremely dangerous unknown. To admit it rashly is to seek death.
She wants to play the long game to catch the big fish, survive first, and then follow up.
"Yes, there is a difference between immortals and mortals. It's because of the appearance. The young sect master's Daoist heart is clear, and the future Immortal Dao is promising."
Su Yueli picked up the tea cup with a smile, laughed, and revealed this fatal topic.
In the following conversation, Su Yueli never mentioned any details, but only talked about some anecdotes about Cultivation World.
After a while, Su Yueli stood up and left.
"Thank you for your hospitality today, Young Sect Master. I still have some trivial matters to deal with, so I will take a step forward."
Shen Huai'an politely handed over his hand. "Fellow Daoist, walk slowly."
Su Yueli turned around and walked out of the Spirit Tea Pavilion, quickly blending into the crowd of people in the city.
Shen Huai'an looked at the direction Su Yueli was leaving, and his deep gaze stayed for three breaths.
Then he shook his head, as if it was just an insignificant encounter, picked up the chopsticks, and continued eating and drinking, as if nothing in the world could disturb his appetite.
However, the two Ninth Realm elders in the corner opened their eyes at this moment.
The faces of the two old monsters were extremely gloomy, and their brows were tightly knitted together.
They looked at each other and saw strong suspicion and vigilance in each other's eyes.
"Something's wrong." The white-haired elder on the left sent a message: "This woman has a big problem."
"Indeed, it was just chatting on the surface, but what she later inquired about were all the mundane secrets of the young sect master. The young sect master entered the sect with Heavenly Bone. The mundane details of the time were all top secrets within the sect..."
"Except for the sect master and us old guys, it is impossible for outsiders to know." A hint of murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the black-faced elder on the right.
Is it possible that someone is investigating the details of Shen Huai'an?
The young sect master is the lifeblood of the Azure Moon Sect's future, and there must be no mistakes.
The nun's seemingly unintentional prying today was full of flaws in the eyes of two old foxes who had lived for thousands of years.
The two looked at each other again, and the black-faced elder continued to stay behind, sitting where he was and protecting Shen Huai'an.
The white-haired elder slowly stood up, swayed slightly and disappeared into the corner, heading in the direction Su Yueli left.
