Su Shi froze.
He did say that.
But it was self-talk in the middle of the night, with only Zhan Qingchen by his side, so how could Sikong Lanyue know?
He realized something and his eyes narrowed slightly, “I didn’t expect that Daoist Master Sikong had such a hobby?”
Sikong Lanyue’s face did not change, “I’m just restless about Qingchen.”
“Hiding in the shadows and peeping, is this the way of a righteous sect master?”
Su Shi looked displeased.
Sikong Lanyue said coldly, “You did something like that to my disciple, I haven’t even held you accountable for it, but you blame me first?”
Su Shi’s heart trembled.
Sure enough, the other party knew everything.
Zhan Qingchen still looked confused, “Master, what are you talking about? Shengzi Su was very kind to me and even saved my life, we are good friends.”
Sikong Lanyue shook her head and said, “Lying in this person’s arms and calling him husband, and even kissing …… ahem, you call that good friends?”
Zhan Qingchen: (O_O!)
Her pretty face quickly turned red, her eyes panicked as she stammered, “Master, Master, how do you know?”
Sikong Lanyue coldly snorted, “No wonder you kept talking for Su Shi earlier, I thought you were just thanking him, but I didn’t expect you to do something so unforgivable!”
This traitor!
She still had the guts to lie in front of her.
“I……”
Zhan Qingchen lowered her head in shame.
Su Shi frowned and said, “Relationships between men and women are normal among humans, Qingchen and I love each other, how can it be so unforgivable?”
After all, the other party already knew, so there was no need to hide it anymore.
Sikong Lanyue said, “As a Chief Disciple, blatantly violating the teachings of the ancestors, isn’t that considered treason?”
Su Shi shook his head and said, “It is clear that your Tianji Pavilion’s ancestral teachings are against human nature.”
“What are you saying?!”
The clouds around Sikong Lanyue surged.
Facing the brilliant pressure of a supreme being, Su Shi seemed to have purple Qi sweeping under his eyes, his face was unafraid and he did not dodge.
“Master, I will willingly accept whatever punishment is meted out to me for violating the teachings of the ancestors.”
“But this has nothing to do with Su Shi, it is me who is completely at fault!”
Zhan Qingchen stepped between the two.
Seeing that stern gaze, Sikong Lanyue suddenly lost something inside her.
The disciple she loved the most would rather be punished than have to leave that man.
She waved her hand and continued, “Sigh, I’m too lazy to care about you two.”
Zhan Qingchen was stunned and said in disbelief, “Master, do you agree with this?”
Sikong Lanyue said helplessly, “I don’t agree, but is it useful?”
She knew her beloved disciple very well.
Zhan Qingchen had already set her heart on Su Shi.
Even if the two were forcibly separated, would their hearts change so easily?
If she really forcibly separated them, the effect would only be counterproductive and might even affect the immortal path as a result.
“Master, you are so kind to me!”
Zhan Qingchen excitedly jumped into Sikong Lanyue’s arms.
Her arms wrapped around her neck and her face rubbed her affectionately.
She had thought that her Master would be an obstacle, but she never thought that he would approve of their relationship!
Sikong Lanyue was stunned.
They had been together as master and disciple for over ten years, and Zhan Qingchen had always respected her, but had never acted so intimately.
“Qingchen has really changed ……”
“But this change, I quite like it.”
“Ahem.”
Sikong Lanyue cleared her throat and snorted, “You rebellious disciple, I haven’t allowed you to be together yet.”
Zhan Qingchen’s face fell, “Then what does Master want.”
Sikong Lanyue said, “I probably won’t punish you, but rules are rules, Chief Disciple and falling in love, you can only choose one.”
“I choose Su Shi!”
Zhan Qingchen did not hesitate.
Sikong Lanyue glared at her, “You brat!”
Zhan Qingchen pouted, “But I really like him!”
At this point, Su Shi spoke, “Is there no other way? The ancestral teachings are also set by the people, Daoist Master Sikong, as the current Patriarch of the Sect, it shouldn’t be a problem to change it, right?”
Sikong Shanyue shook her head, “I can’t change it.”
Su Shi frowned, “Why?”
Sikong Lanyue said indifferently, “Because I am a stubborn old daoist nun.”
Su Shi was slightly embarrassed.
This daoist nun really held a grudge.
“It was me who spoke out of place before, Daoist Master Sikong shouldn’t have taken it to heart.”
“If Daoist Master can maintain Qingchen’s Chief position, I can agree to any conditions.”
Su Shi spoke with a sincere tone.
Within the clouds, the corners of Sikong Lanyue’s mouth curved up slightly.
Just what she had been waiting for, namely these words!
“Well, since you say so …… although the teachings of the ancestors cannot be changed, if you can prove your dao heart, Qingchen can still continue to be the Chief Disciple.”
“Prove the dao heart?”
Su Shi wondered, “What does that mean?”
Zhan Qingchen thought of something, “Master, you mean Wendao Cliff?”
Sikong Lanyue nodded, “That’s right, if you can prove that your dao heart is still clean and not corrupted by worldly desires at Wendao Cliff, then you can still continue to be the main heir.”
Zhan Qingchen nodded, “I am willing.”
“It’s not only you.”
Sikong Lanyue looked at Su Shi, “He also has to prove himself before he can do it.”
“After all, he is your ‘husband’, so I have to see his daoist heart, otherwise, how can I entrust you to him?”
The word “husband” was bitten so hard that Zhan Qingchen lowered her head embarrassedly.
Su Shi was a little confused, “What are you talking about?”
Sikong Lanyue stood up.
“Let’s go, you’ll understand later.”
Qiongyun Peak, Wendao Cliff.
The cliff was straight and smooth, as if it had been cut by a sharp sword, exuding a sparkling jade-like luster.
All the elders from Tianji Pavilion gathered below the cliff.
“Why did the Sect Leader suddenly open the Ask the Way Cliff?”
“I heard that Chief has returned, could it be that she is going to prove her own dao heart?”
“But wasn’t that already proven when she was first enthroned?”
The crowd was discussing.
This cliff has a mysterious origin, and is said to be a divine jade that fell from the Nine Heavens, and has stood here since the founding of Tianji Pavilion.
It has the miraculous effect of sensing heaven and breaking the heart of dao.
Every time a chief disciple is enthroned, he must prove his daoist heart here.
Now that it suddenly opened again, the elders were a little confused.
“The Patriarch is here.”
The crowd looked up, only to see a cloud of mist descending from the air, with two figures following beside it.
One of them was none other than Zhan Qingchen.
And …… the other was actually a man?
Dressed in white, with an erect figure, handsome and dashing, his appearance seemed familiar.
“Su, Su Shi?”
“It really seems to be him!”
“Shengzi of Demonic path, Su Shi?” .
