#926 - You don't need to have too strong a desire to survive

Jun Wuxie still did not give her an answer, but looked at the people of Bingyun Tower and gave them a definite answer: “Now you can rest assured, she is Mu Ciyin, your founder.”

“It really is the founder…”

The entire Bingyun Tower revealed excited expressions after hearing his words.

“I have something to say to your founder now. You can have a good gathering with the founder later.” Jun Wuxie said, looking at Mu Ciyin, and said: “Senior, let’s talk alone.”

“Okay, you lead the way.”

Mu Ciyin nodded slightly, her ice-like clear and pure eyes revealing a faint love for him.

Jun Wuxie felt a little overwhelmed by such eyes. Although he knew that the affection in Mu Ciyin's eyes was like a disciple's love, she was, after all, a beautiful woman who surpassed the beauty of the world and had amazing charm.

He hurriedly looked away, fearing that he might be a little失态, after all, Qingxue was still by his side. If she really beat him up at that time, he would lose face.

He led the way, taking Mu Ciyin to an ice lake behind Bingyun Tower.

The ice lake was surrounded by snow trees, and the leaves were covered with thick snow. At a glance, it was white and beautiful.

He stopped by the lake, turned to look at Mu Ciyin, and said: “First of all, thank you for your love, senior, but please forgive me for not being able to agree to be your direct disciple.”

Jun Wuxie had thought a lot along the way, from the initial excitement when he learned that Mu Ciyin was in the Hunyuan Holy Realm to the gradual calmness now, and finally made such a decision.

Ye Qingxue was not surprised to hear his answer to Mu Ciyin.

This was his decision. She actually knew that he would make such a choice and would not listen to her advice.

For no other reason, simply because he is Jun Wuxie.

“Why?”

Mu Ciyin could not maintain her aloof and elegant posture anymore. Her蛾眉微微蹙, filled with incomprehension.

She couldn't understand why this most outstanding young man in the Lower Realm would actually reject her favor.

How many people in the Upper Realm dream of being her disciple and receiving her guidance but cannot. Such a good opportunity came to her door, and she personally accepted a disciple, but she was actually rejected…

“I cannot join your Bingxin Pavilion.”

“Is it because Bingxin Pavilion is full of women and you feel uncomfortable?”

“No…” Jun Wuxie shook his head and said, “Although I am currently in the Lower Realm, I have already offended many powerful forces in the Upper Realm. If I go to Bingxin Pavilion, you will become the target of public criticism.”

“Of course, Bingxin Pavilion is very strong. Perhaps they will not target the entire Bingxin Pavilion, but the people of Bingyun Tower who follow senior to the Upper Realm will become their main target. As long as I join Bingxin Pavilion, their eyes will be attracted, and then the people of Bingyun Tower will naturally become the target.”

Mu Ciyin was stunned, her beautiful and clear eyes quietly staring at him, and she did not make a sound for a long time.

“No wonder they all obey you and admire you. You are worthy of their infatuation, willing to give up their own opportunities, and unwilling to bring them more danger. Responsible, responsible, affectionate and righteous, thoughtful, such you make me, Mu Ciyin, even more like you…”

She sighed. After all, she could not bring this amazingly talented young man, whose character she considered perfect, into the sect. It was a pity…

But she didn't want to miss it, and even more didn't want to give up.

She knew that once she gave up, it would be difficult to find such a perfect person to be a direct disciple in this life.

In this prosperous age, she needs such disciples, to cultivate them with all her strength, and to face the great catastrophe in the future after they grow up.

“If it weren’t for them, would you be willing to be my only direct disciple?”

Jun Wuxie was taken aback, thinking that he was destined not to enter Bingxin Pavilion. What was the point of Mu Ciyin asking this?

But he still answered, following the true thoughts in his heart, "If it weren't for this reason, I would naturally be willing to be your direct disciple, but I hope it is not the only one. I hope that Xuelan, Yunxi, and Yuning can all be personally taught by you. Their talents should not disappoint you."

“Their talents are very good, it can be said that they are very outstanding, and can be described as amazing, but compared with you, they are far from each other. However, I am very happy and happy to hear you say you are willing. As long as you are willing to be my direct disciple, I can specially allow you not to join Bingxin Pavilion to practice, only to be my Mu Ciyin's direct disciple, which has nothing to do with Bingxin Pavilion. In the future, you can also join other sects. As for Xuelan and others, I can accept them as disciples at your request.”

“Is this true?”

Jun Wuxie was overjoyed. He didn't expect Mu Ciyin to make such a concession for him!

“I, Mu Ciyin, the dignified Pavilion Master of Bingxin, naturally speak the truth. But you must know that I do this for you, so no matter what achievements you will have in the future, you must remember that you are my favorite disciple of Mu Ciyin.”

“Master is above, please accept a disciple’s bow!”

What else is there to hesitate about, just pave a sunny road for Xuelan and the others, and he himself has no loss, and he doesn't have to worry about causing them trouble.

“Get up.”

Looking at Jun Wuxie bowing, although he did not kneel down to perform the apprenticeship ceremony, Mu Ciyin did not care at all, and was very happy in her heart.

Finally, she has the disciple with the strongest growth talent she has ever seen in her life, and there will be infinite possibilities in the future!

“Little guy, if you don’t enter Bingxin Pavilion, it will be difficult for the teacher to see you every day, and there may be very little guidance on practice. Tell the teacher, what are your plans when you go to the Upper Realm in the future?”

“I want to grow slowly from areas suitable for my realm of experience, so that I can ensure that I stay away from the sight of those big forces. Maybe I will encounter a lot of trouble without a background, but it is better than facing the targeting of big forces as soon as I go up, and I am confident that I can solve the difficulties.”

“Okay, then when are you going to the Upper Realm? When I take the people from Bingyun Tower away this time, come with the teacher.”

“I can’t leave before the end of the Doomsday Torrent…”

Jun Wuxie refused. There are too many people in the Lower Realm who need him, his friends, his dynasty, and his imperial concubines all need him. Mu Ciyin cannot take them all to the Upper Realm.

Mu Ciyin was silent for a while, then sighed, and took off an ice crystal pendant from her neck, with an ice flower carved on it, engraved with the words Ciyin.

She personally put the jade pendant on Jun Wuxie's neck and said: "This has been with me for hundreds of thousands of years. The jade has spirituality. During the Doomsday Torrent, if you are on the verge of despair, you can awaken it and win a chance for you. But its use is limited, it will consume energy, and it is difficult to recover without the aura of the Holy Spirit in the Lower Realm."

“Thank you, Master.”

Jun Wuxie looked down at the ice crystal pendant on his chest, which still had Mu Ciyin's temperature on it.

He didn't expect that she would give him the jade pendant that she had worn for hundreds of thousands of years.

“It’s a pity that Master can’t stay in the Lower Realm to help you resist the Doomsday Torrent, and can’t send people down…”

When she said this, Jun Wuxie had a question in his mind, "Why has the Upper Realm never sent people to help the Lower Realm resist the darkness since ancient times? In the past years, the forces of the Upper Realm sent people to the Lower Realm many times, but no one ever did that."

“It is not easy to resist the darkness. It requires many powerful people in the realm of mythology. The mythology of the Upper Realm is not as physically strong as you, and the recovery ability is amazing. It is also difficult to resist the erosion of the dark curse, and there will be a lot of casualties.”

“Below mythology, no matter how many people there are, it is useless, and the people in the realm of mythology are either the young supreme beings of various forces or big figures. Once they go to the Lower Realm, the borderlands of the Upper Realm may have dark invasion incidents, so the people of the Upper Realm have reached a tacit understanding and will never allow the Lower Realm to bring danger to the Upper Realm.”

“I see…”

Jun Wuxie sneered, "I don't believe that all the forces in the Upper Realm really care about the weakening of strength and the resulting dark invasion. I'm afraid some people just don't want the Lower Realm universe to resist the darkness!"

“It is not ruled out that some people have such thoughts. The dark invasion can be traced back to several epochs ago, spanning a long time. In this long period of time, the darkness must have penetrated our Upper Realm, so it is not impossible for some forces to secretly succumb to the darkness. It's just that they are hiding very deeply and have never been exposed. But this great world will be different. This era is not only the end of the world in the prophecy of the Lower Realm, but also the last brilliance in the prophecy of the Upper Realm and even higher cultivation civilizations…”

Jun Wuxie nodded, and then asked: "Master, what's going on with that exercise?"

“Exercise…” Mu Ciyin's expression was solemn, and she said: “There is a mysterious organization in the Upper Realm. They laid out the 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】 back then. At that time, I was just a semi-sage, and I accidentally obtained it, thinking it was an opportunity. They were too good at disguising, and the teacher was fooled, leaving hidden dangers for Bingyun Tower for generations.”

“That organization is mysterious and powerful. The teacher discovered the problem of 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】 not long after going to the Upper Realm. While lurking to improve her realm, she tried to solve the problem of the exercise. Later, she was noticed by the people of that organization and was almost captured…”

Mu Ciyin said a lot, some of which Jun Wuxie knew, which was exactly what the three envoys of Bingxin Pavilion had said.

“Have you found out what kind of organization they are?”

“The teacher has investigated for many years, and only now dares to go a little deeper. In the past, she could only touch the edge of the organization. This organization has many strong people, and there are not a few strong people in the Hunyuan Holy Realm. It should be an extremely ancient existence. In this life, the strong people they sealed down in various eras are gradually waking up from their slumber, making them extremely difficult to deal with.”

“So strong…” Jun Wuxie was a little surprised. I'm afraid that not even a few strong people in the Hunyuan Holy Realm will appear in 100,000 years, but that organization actually has many. With such a strong force, why did they lay out such a plan to plot against Master Mu Ciyin, plot against Bingyun Tower, and even plot against Bingxin Pavilion in the Upper Realm?

“They exhausted all their schemes, starting their layout tens of thousands of years ago, all for the sake of reaping the fruits in this era. It's really puzzling…” After a moment of contemplation, Jun Wuxie looked at Mu Ciyin with some embarrassment and said, “Master, some words might be disrespectful, but…”

“Speak. Would Master blame you?”

“For generations, almost everyone in the Bingyun Tower is conceived from essence blood, with only a very few women who are naturally close to ice being recruited from the outside. In that case, when Master created the Bingyun Tower, did you use your own essence blood to branch out and spread?”

“Yes, the people of Bingyun Tower more or less have my blood flowing within them.”

“Then…” Jun Wuxie's lips twitched slightly, and he said, “Then… does Master's Yuan Yin have any special characteristics? Or, does it have special effects for certain people?”

“You… what are you saying?”

The fair skin on Mu Ciyin's exquisite face instantly flushed with a faint blush, and she glared at him with shame and annoyance.

Jun Wuxie touched his nose, not daring to meet her gaze, feeling extremely awkward in his heart, but he felt that this might be the key to the problem.

“Alright, little one, I don't blame you, but don't discuss Yuan Yin matters with me in the future…” Mu Ciyin was, after all, a powerhouse of the Mixed Yuan Holy Realm, and she quickly returned to normal, saying, “I have thought about this problem for a long time, but there are so many strange bloodlines or cultivation methods in the world that even I don't understand many of them. Perhaps there really are some bloodlines or cultivation methods that can obtain great benefits from my Yuan Yin and the Yuan Yin of those who have my blood flowing within them…”

“But I believe that this is only one of the reasons why the mysterious organization is plotting against us, and there may be other reasons. One day, I will investigate the truth and expose them from the dark corners to the sunlight.”

“When I go to the Upper Realm in the future, I will help Master investigate together. They have set up a game spanning hundreds of thousands of years. Before they even had time to collect the fruits of victory, I picked the peaches along the way. The people of that organization will definitely hate me, and in the future, there will inevitably be interactions with them.”

Mu Ciyin nodded. When Jun Wuxie came into contact with that organization, his realm should be very high, and with her behind him, he should be able to cope.

She said, “When Bingyun Tower arrives in the Upper Realm, I will specially allocate an area for them in the sect. Although it belongs to Bingxin Pavilion, it is also independent. It is still your Bingyun Tower. Also, regarding Xue Lan's matter, when we arrive at Bingxin Pavilion, I want her to give birth to your child as soon as possible. The child in her womb will have a significant impact on her cultivation.”

“Then I will have to trouble Master to take care of Xue Lan and our child.”

“Little one, why are you thanking me? Your child, I will naturally love and cherish, and will not let him suffer any grievances. I cannot stay in the Lower Realm for too long. The Bingxin Pavilion in the Upper Realm currently needs me to guard it. You must take care of yourself and be sure to survive the Cataclysmic Torrent.”

Mu Ciyin's eyes were filled with deep worry. She stepped forward to smooth his clothes, and then said, “I and everyone in Bingyun Tower are waiting for you in the Upper Realm. In the future, when you go to the Upper Realm, if you encounter a desperate situation, activate the Ice Crystal Jade Pendant and call out my name to it. No matter how far apart we are, I will sense it and will definitely come to protect you at the first moment.”

“Disciple understands.”

Jun Wuxie nodded, watching Mu Ciyin leave, watching her back gradually fade away.

“She is very good to you.” Ye Qingxue said softly, “In one's life, at different stages, different experiences, one will always encounter different people. Some people will have a deep connection with you and be of great help to you. Mu Ciyin is an indispensable and important person in the next stage of your life.”

“She is indeed very good to me.”

Jun Wuxie could see undisguised affection and love in Mu Ciyin's eyes, but he changed the subject and said, “I think Qingxue and Aunt You are even better to me.”

Ye Qingxue was stunned, and then said in a cold voice, “In front of me and Aunt You, you don't need to have too strong a desire to survive. You know I won't beat you, and Aunt You calls you Young Master, she won't either.”

“Is this a desire to survive?”

Jun Wuxie raised his eyebrows and suddenly picked up Ye Qingxue in a princess carry, saying, “This is from the bottom of my heart. It's just that your identities are special, and many things are inconvenient for you to participate in.”

“Put me down…”

Ye Qingxue's beautiful eyes stared at him, trembling, her face slightly red.

“Hmm? The Heavenly Emperor is shy, hahaha…”

Jun Wuxie ran with her on the ice lake, and cheerful laughter echoed in the air, shaking the snow on the trees on the shore of the ice lake, causing snow mist to rise.

“What is that little guy doing?”

Someone was watching here from afar, it was Jing Ya and Ling Qingyu.

They were full of astonishment, watching Jun Wuxie with his arms in a hugging posture, running alone on the ice lake, with a warm and intoxicated expression.

“That scoundrel, wouldn't he be fantasizing about hugging that Bingxin Pavilion's high-level figure just now?”

Ling Qingyu stomped her feet in anger, grinding her teeth fiercely, and spat lightly.

“He wouldn't, would he?”

Although Jing Ya felt that he was a bit frivolous and reckless when he was with Ling Qingyu, she didn't believe that he would do something like being intoxicated in fantasy, saying, “If you said he had a brain fart, I would think it's possible…”
