Chapter 188 Disciple, Don’t Quarrel (4)_1
"Girl, this is a long story. Be patient and listen carefully to my words," he began.
"Years ago, when I was still learning under the discipleship of Master Wuweizi, I was fortunate enough to have met his teacher, the true person Cihai Zhenren. At that time, his cultivation had reached the Great Achievement Realm. He was about to ascend to immortality. He graciously descended to give a mirror to my master. However, he didn’t explain its significance, and then he left."
"Later on, he ascended to immortality and the very island where he had practiced his cultivation astonishingly vanished. This paradisiac island gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon; it was the ideal treasure land for cultivating immortality. My master’s fellow disciples, on seeing this wonder, feared that the island and the mirror were connected. This led him to our observatory, where he fought with my master in a bid to force him to surrender the mirror given by my teacher."
"My master refused to hand it over and fought back, but he was unexpectedly ambushed by them. He met a tragic death, and most of my elder so-called brothers in our ’observatory’ also died at his hands. Only my elder brother and I were lucky enough to escape. My elder brother took the mirror left by our teacher during his escape. That man, after destroying my master’s legacy, vanished without a trace."
"Unwilling to let my master’s lineage extinguished, and always aspiring to avenge my master, I made up my mind to serve in the officialdom. With a little bit of my cultivation, I became the Royal Adviser of the Great Jin Nation. I was serving the nation on one hand, and secretly looking for this man’s whereabouts on the other."
"Surprisingly, he came looking for me and fought with me. By this time, his cultivation was quite advanced. I was no match for him and was defeated. Fortunately, I was rescued and managed to escape his pursuit. I escaped to the remote Qingyun Town and dwelt there in disguise as the shopkeeper of Li’s Record and Cloth Store. Meanwhile, he took my place as the Royal Adviser of the Great Jin Nation."
"Over the years, this man was restless, ceaselessly searching for the mirror left by our teacher. If he found out that you have had interactions with several Divine Beasts on the island, do you think he would let you go?"
