Chapter 910: Chapter 622 Little Neighbor_3 Chapter 910: Chapter 622 Little Neighbor_3 Elder Murong said with a faint smile, âSister, rest assured.â
She glanced at Mo Hua, her gaze somewhat profound.
The child favored by Elder Master Xun was probably beyond her need to look after.
On the side, Gu Changhuaiâs expression was complex, feeling helpless inside.
This kid, full of lies, highly scheming, and very dangerousâŚ
At his age, with his level of cultivation, and having just entered the sect half a year ago, he was already capable of joining his senior brothers and sisters to capture a sinister and vicious Sin Cultivator like Hidden elder-second.
It was good enough he didnât bully his fellow disciples, let alone anyone being able to bully himâŚ
Wenren Wan whispered a few private words with Elder Murong and then noticed Gu Changhuai beside her and said, a bit surprised, âChanghuai, since when have you been here?â
Gu Changhuai felt bitter inside, âIâve been here the whole timeâŚâ
Wenren Wan didnât understand, âAs a Supervisor, what are you doing here without reason?â
Gu Changhuai sighed and said:
âI came to find Mo Hua, for a bit of business.â
Wenren Wan looked puzzled, âYouâre looking for Mo Hua?â
Suddenly recalling something, her expression darkened, âDid someone bully Mo Hua, and he went to the Taoist Court to file a complaint?â
âItâs not thatâŚâ
Gu Changhuai was weary.
His cousin sister was good in all aspects, but sometimes she was emotional and couldnât see the facts clearly.
But he couldnât say more and had to say, âItâs just some minor issues regarding the sectâs reward postings, nothing serious once clarifiedâŚâ
Wenren Wan didnât quite believe it but didnât press further.
After speaking a few more words with Elder Murong, Elder Murong took her leave, saying:
âI must be going now, everything concerning Yu Er has been settledâŚâ
âBy bringing him to join the sect, completing some procedures, he would be considered a premature disciple of our Taixu GateâŚâ
âHowever, Taixu Gate has no such precedent, and he is still young, so he will temporarily stay in the Discipleâs Residence, taken care of by the guards of your family.â
As for the cultivationâŚ
âConsidering he is in the Qi Refinement Realm, itâs imperative to nurture the meridians and solidify the foundation, so we wonât make arrangements for him; you should consider his coursework yourself.â
âOnce he has joined the sect and needs anything, he can come to meâŚâ
âWe are sisters, no need for formalitiesâŚâ
Wenren Wan gratefully said, âThank you, Sister Murong, for making an exception to let Yu Er join the sect, it must have taken a lot of effort, I will pay a visit to express my thanks another day.â
Elder Murong shook her head, âYouâre too courteous, Sister, I merely went with the flowâŚâ
From the corner of her eye, she glanced at Mo Hua, who was talking to Yu Er.
Allowing a Qi Refinement disciple to enroll was indeed unprecedented in Taixu Gate.
To break the rule, it required the ancestorsâ approval.
Originally, the ancestors did not agree to this matter.
But later, for some reason, Elder Master Xun had heard of this and, foreseeing something, unexpectedly gave his consent and even opened the door to convenienceâŚ
She only learned about Yu Er and Mo Huaâs relationship later.
In Elder Murongâs eyes, a hint of realization flashed.
âElder Master Xun doesnât say it, but he surely holds this child in exceptional regardâŚâ
This was truly unprecedentedâŚ
Elder Murong took another silent glance at Mo Hua and then took her leave.
Mo Hua would be returning to the Sect too.
He actually had some things he wanted to discuss with Uncle Gu.
Mainly, it was to find a way to get him to agree to become an âinside manâ at the Taoist Court for him, becoming the âtool personâ for issuing tasks.
But now was not the time; there would be opportunities to talk in the future.
Since Yu Er was also about to enter the sect, Mo Hua said goodbye to Wenren Wan and then, along with Yu Er, walked through the gates of Taixu Mountain.
Yu Er parted from her mother reluctantly.
Wenren Wei bowed to Wenren Wan and Gu Changhuai and silently followed Mo Hua and Yu Er into the Taixu Gate.
As a guard, he had to take care of Yu Erâs daily life.
After the group split up, there were no others around.
Wenren Wanâs gaze followed the figure of Yu Er disappearing into the forest, her expression slightly melancholic.
She then withdrew her gaze and glared at Gu Changhuai, âSpit it out, what are you scheming?â
Gu Changhuai lost his usual pride before Wenren Wan, instead becoming somewhat sheepish, âSister, what do you mean?â
Wenren Wan humphed, âIâve watched you grow up since you were a child, how could I not know whatâs on your mind?
For no reason at all, why are you seeking Mo Hua?â
âIâŚâ
âDonât make excuses.â
Gu Changhuai heaved a sigh, âI suspect him, of harboring ulterior motivesâŚâ
Wenren Wan frowned and said helplessly:
âYou, just like your brother-in-law, are too suspicious, thatâs why you think everyone has an agendaâŚâ
âHow you look at others is how they will look at you; if you play tricks on others, they will naturally play tricks on you.â
Gu Changhuai gave a wry smile.
Seeing him like this, Wenren Wan softened a bit and said:
âI know youâre concerned about me and Yu Er, but donât go troubling Mo Hua,â she said.
âIf Mo Hua ever has any trouble, do help him out a bit; heâs just a child with no family backing.
Itâs not easy for him to cultivate in the Sect.â
Having said this, Wenren Wan adopted the aura of an âelder sister,â patted Gu Changhuai on the shoulder, and continued, âIf Mo Hua needs you, help him if you can.
ĆÎżÎ˝Ç¤Ö .á´Îż
Donât brush me off, and donât think you can deceive me.â
Wenren Wan looked into Gu Changhuaiâs eyes.
Gu Changhuai was quite conflicted and only unwillingly managed to respond after a long pause, âI get itâŚâ
Wenren Wan appeared satisfied, nodding at Gu Changhuai,
âWhen youâre on break, come back, and Iâll make you some jade crisp pastries.â
Gu Changhuai sighed.
Seeing Wenren Wan about to leave, he asked one more question, âSisterâŚâ
His gaze grew heavy, âAre you really at peace with sending Yu Er to Taixu Gate?â
Wenren Wan was startled, her body trembling.
When she turned back, her originally beautiful and gentle face had lost some color, covered with a layer of reluctance, melancholy, and a trace ofâŚ
fear.
âSisterâŚâ
Gu Changhuai had no idea what had happened, his expression one of anxious concern.
Wenren Wanâs faded face showed a wistful smile:
âChanghuaiâŚâ
âIâveâŚ
had nightmaresâŚâ
âIn those dreams, thereâs a sky filled with blood rain, demons dancing wildlyâŚâ
âYu Er looks at me with cold eyes, his gaze hollow, his skin pale as death.
His blood drained, his organs hollowed out, his Divine Sense sucked dryâŚâ
âHe asks me in a cold voice, why, as his mother, I donât save himâŚâ
Wenren Wan felt a tightness in her chest, her expression one of anguish, âThatâs in dreams, even if I struggle, no matter how hard I try, I canât save Yu ErâŚâ
âUnder the overwhelming Evil Thoughts, the human heart is too fragileâŚâ
âI canât save himâŚâ
âSo, all I can do is hopeâŚâ
Wenren Wanâs voice was a whisper, fading to a barely audible level before finally she lifted her gaze towards Taixu Mountain, her beautiful eyes filled with a humble hope, precious yet fragile.
Gu Changhuaiâs heart shuddered violently.
He had just realized that some things, he simply didnât know!
And his cousin, she wasnât just being impulsively ârashâ as he had thoughtâŚ
Gu Changhuai took a deep breath, his demeanor serious as he said:
âSister, I understand.â
âŚ
Inside Taixu Gate.
Yu Er was completely unaware of these things.
He was happily holding Mo Huaâs hand, skipping joyfully ahead until they reached the Discipleâs Residence.
Mo Hua swiped the Taixu Token to enter, then noticed that Little Yu Er had also pulled out a little token, swiped it, and followed him in.
Mo Hua was taken aback, âYu Er, you live here too?â
âMhm.â
Yu Er nodded happily.
Mo Hua walked inside, only to realize that Yu Er was still following him, right up to the door of room number fifty of Taiyi in Mo Huaâs residence, before Yu Er stopped.
Mo Hua glanced at Yu Er.
Yu Er pointed with his small hand to the side, âBrother Mo, I live here.â
Mo Hua looked up and realized that the previously empty room next to his in the Discipleâs Residence had been cleaned and the seal on the doorplate removed.
It read: Taiyi, Fifty-One.
Mo Hua opened his mouth.
He hadnât expected that Yu Er had indeed joined Taixu Gate and had become his little neighborâŚ
Behind Yu Er, Wenren Wei also bowed his hands and said:
âIn the future, please take good care of Little Yu Er, Young Master Mo.â
Yu Er too smiled beamingly, âBrother Mo, please take care of me.â
Mo Hua looked down at Yu Er whose eyes sparkled, and said gently with a smile:
âAlright.â
Since there were cultivation classes later that afternoon.
To avoid disturbing Mo Hua, Wenren Wei took Yu Er into the room next door, room number fifty-one of Taiyi in the Discipleâs Residence.
Yu Er waved to Mo Hua.
Wenren Wei followed him inside.
