The Immortal Path of the White-Haired Maiden Volume 1 Chapter 90 Mo Yu Yun

  Zi Dong looked at the newcomer, his lips curling up again. "Since the Lord of the Realm has arrived in person, why do I need to put on a show? This mansion is also yours, and so is your husband..." He glanced at Bai Yuzi, who had already become infatuated, and smiled blandly. "The Lord of the Realm should give him some proper guidance."

  Bai Yuzi didn't utter a word, and as for Zi Dong's words, he seemed to have not heard them at all. His gaze was completely focused on the woman who had suddenly appeared before him. Her eyes shone like stars, her body slender like bamboo, with autumn water as her spirit and jade as her bones. So many years had passed, yet she still looked stunningly beautiful, just like when he first saw her, leaving him unable to tear his gaze away after just one glance. He had fantasized countless times about the scene of their reunion, hoping that one day she would recall old feelings and come to see him. At that time, he vowed not to be so arrogant and self-assured as to monopolize her person and heart, only asking that she allow him to follow by her side, even if it meant being just one among many suitors. He had accepted this in his heart! But now, under such circumstances, they met again, and for a moment, he didn't know where to begin, feeling an endless bitterness spreading gradually from his mouth.

  Compared to his melancholy, the woman was much more calm and composed. She wore a rich, crimson red dress with golden edges, walking slowly forward, her every step elegant and refined. The peony pattern on her dress not only didn't look tacky but also complemented her beautiful face, making it even more stunning. Her autumn water-like eyes seemed to be overflowing with sparkling water, shining brightly and clearly, outshining the sky and earth. Her jade-like complexion was radiant, her slender waist so delicate that it seemed like it could be grasped in one hand. It's hard to imagine that such a breathtakingly beautiful woman would be someone who holds great power, standing at the pinnacle of authority!

  But seeing her sparkling eyes, she smiled slightly at the white jade, and her warm eyes seemed to have a deep affection. "Ah Yu, it's been a long time since we met, how are you doing?"

  Even though she knew she seemed sentimental, but actually the most unfeeling, Bai Yuzi was still infatuated with this long unheard nickname, and murmured with a full heart: "Wife... is it to see Yuju?"

  Mo Zhen gently brushed away the disheveled hair beside Bai Yuzi's ear, just like a virtuous wife helping her husband tidy up his appearance. The warm sensation on his face made Bai Yuzi feel nostalgic. He only heard her softly say: "A'Yu, you go down first, I'll take care of things here. After it's done, I'll come find you."

  "Let the wife be..." Bai Yuzi saw him letting her leave, opened his mouth wanting to say something else, but when he met her warm and bright yet unyielding eyes, ultimately couldn't say it out loud.

  It was only then that he realized his wife had not come alone, but was followed by a man and a woman. The woman's appearance was also extraordinary, with some resemblance to his wife. As for the man, he seemed like a god, with sharp and handsome facial features, and an aura even stronger than his own. This person was someone he had known before - his wife's senior fellow disciple, who had grown up together with her since childhood, practicing together through thick and thin. Among all his wife's husbands, only this one was allowed to follow her everywhere, always by her side...

  Thinking of this, a wave of sourness and bitterness rose in Bai Yuzi's heart. He took one last look at the wife he cherished in his mind, then retreated with a somber expression.

  After they left, Mo Zhen Yin made the man and woman wait outside the hall. Suddenly, only Zi Dong and Mo Zhen Yin were left inside.

  Zi Dong sat on the chair, with a rogue-like expression, slanting his eyes at Mo Zheng En and said: "I didn't expect that after such a long time, the Lord of the Realm still has so many peach blossoms around him, and is still as sweet-tongued but ruthless. Let me guess, after you and I are done talking, you definitely won't go looking for your infatuated Ah Yu again, but will turn around and leave instead."

  Only to see Mo Zhen's smile as bright as a summer flower, and lightly say: "I'm doing it for his own good, I don't want him to be too obsessed, which will not be beneficial for his cultivation in the future. As for what Purple East said about me being heartless, actually he is even more heartless, knowing my sincerity but always pretending not to see it. If someone hadn't reported Ah Yu's situation this time, and I happened to have free time, who knows when we would have met again? This time, it finally alleviates my longing."

  Seeing her serious appearance, with sparkling eyes, as if there were clear waves rolling, Zi Dong burst out laughing and said: "How do I remember that the Lord of the Boundary has always been fond of beauties? Since when did you change your taste and start liking me, this kind of rustic and unadorned person?"

  "It's easy for me to change my appearance," Mo Zhen walked a few steps to Zidong's side, unapologetically sitting together on the same chair, instantly, their long sleeves overlapped, with only half an inch between their eyes and noses. "I believe that as long as you're willing, Zidong, there won't be a single man in this world who can surpass you, the key lies within..."

  Facing such a unique and unparalleled beauty, Zidong burst into another fit of laughter. Although he didn't distance himself from her, his phoenix-like eyes already had a hint of coldness, "Lord Jie, let's get down to business, shall we? This trick might work on your husbands, but it won't have any effect on me."

  Seeing her attitude was cold, Mo Zhen didn't show a hint of anger, instead she smiled even brighter, stood up and pulled away from him, shaking her head saying: "You really are heartless."

  Zi Dong didn't respond and instead looked at her, waiting for what she would say next.

  As expected, Mo Zhenqin tidied up her dress and said casually, "I heard that you recently accepted a new disciple. Is this true?"

  "Hmm, the Boundary Master's information is indeed thorough," Zidong said with a hint of a smile. "That old man in Heaven has a big mouth? No wonder you were able to guess it was me here."

  "If you hadn't told him on purpose, how would he know? It's obvious that you're using his mouth to tell us old folks," Mo Zhen's eyelashes fluttered, casting a shadow in the corner of her eye. "I've heard she's a famous female cultivator, I'm quite curious what kind of person can enter your eyes."

  "What's wrong with you? You want to fight me for a disciple?" Zi Dong raised an eyebrow.

  This time, Mo Zhen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in women. In the past, I thought you were too arrogant, probably no one could enter your eyes, and it was unlikely that you would get entangled with someone. Who would have thought that you would unexpectedly take on a famous disciple? Since you've taken one, taking another is also acceptable, so why not take my daughter as well?"

  "Your daughter?" Zidong gazed into her eyes, nonchalant, "The little girl who was just following you? Let me think, what's her name again?"

  "Mo Yu Yun." Mo Zheng Ken replied.

  Zi Dong rubbed his temples, "En, that's the name. To be honest, since she was born, the master of the realm has been thinking of ways to pawn her off on me. She is your only flesh and blood relative, do you need to be so disgusted with her all the time?"

  He teased Mu Zhen, saying with a smile: "A big girl like you shouldn't stay at home, just staying by my side won't amount to anything great. Why not let me train you and make you happy?"

  "I'm not willing." Zi Dong replied quickly, his eyes unusually devoid of any hint of joking.

  "Unexpectedly, the other party thought about it and immediately refused. Mo Ying couldn't help but narrow her beautiful eyes, 'What, do you think my family's Yun'er isn't talented enough? Not as good as your current disciple?'"

  "Master Jie, you really love to joke," Zidong said calmly and slowly. "As far as I know, your beloved daughter not only inherited your legacy but also has the ability to directly absorb yuanli for cultivation. Her talent is probably unmatched in the entire Xianling Realm, let alone the entire Xianxia Realm. Such a gift is certainly not something that my family's mediocre disciple can compare to."

  Her eyes flowed with a hint of confusion, and her pupils seemed to be writing an unsolved puzzle. "Since there's no problem with your qualifications, I just can't understand why you're so unwilling to accept Yun'er. Moreover, my family's Yun'er has a temperament that is vastly different from mine."

  "Indeed, your daughter's character is a thousand times better than yours," Zidong said with his chin in his hand and nodding: "It's precisely because she's too good that it's somewhat uninteresting to me, I really can't muster up the enthusiasm for her. Even if I were to take her on as an apprentice, I wouldn't be able to teach her wholeheartedly, and would only end up hindering her progress. Are you still determined to have her become my disciple?"

  Mo Zhen was silent for a moment, but soon smiled and said softly: "Forget it, the relationship between master and apprentice is also a kind of fate. If you two don't have this fate, then it's better not to force it. However, my child is stubborn, I don't know what she sees in you, she wants to follow you so much, you'd better talk to her yourself."

  As soon as she finished speaking, she called out towards the door: "Yun'er, come in."

  Before long, the door was pushed open and in came the woman who looked a bit like Mo Zhenyan. In terms of looks, Mo Yu Yun wasn't inferior to Mo Zhenyan, but she was dressed very simply in a plain blue robe with a high bun that revealed her full and smooth forehead, a pair of beautiful eyes that seemed slightly cold, walked with her back straight and her gaze steady and determined, completely unlike her mother's charming and gentle demeanor. She was like an unsheathed precious sword, beautiful yet sharp, making people dare not approach her.

  "Mother, Zi Dong senior."

  She bowed to the two of them, and Mo Zhenyin stepped forward, affectionately patting her cheek. "Yuner, your mother has already spoken with Master Zi Dong about you, but unfortunately he is unwilling to accept you no matter what. If you really want to become his apprentice, then persuade him yourself."

  As Mo Yu left, closing the door behind him, Mo Wei immediately knelt down on both knees and said sincerely: "I am willing to follow you for a lifetime to cultivate, please allow me to be your disciple!"

  She knelt down with a loud thud, not even using her spiritual energy to protect her knees. Zidong suddenly felt a headache coming on. He was the least willing to deal with someone who was so serious and stubborn that they couldn't even take a joke. Not to mention taking her as his apprentice, just being in the same room as her made him feel uncomfortable all over. So he reluctantly said: "This isn't the only place where cultivators of the Unity stage gather, why did you have to fix your sights on me?"

  "It's because the senior is too strong!"

  Mo Yu Yun raised her head, looking at Zi Dong with eyes full of reverence. Her tightly pursed lips revealed the stubbornness in her heart. In this world, there were less than three people who had seen Zi Dong's true strength. Mo Yu Yun had once caught a glimpse of Zi Dong's battle prowess during his Golden Dan period due to a coincidence, and that overwhelming moment had left an indelible mark on her mind, giving her an impact that was beyond compare. From then on, in her heart, there was only one person who could be her master, and that was Zi Dong alone. Even if other predecessors at the Unity stage or above tried to entice her with promises of inheritance, she had never wavered.

  After two thousand years of continuous effort, forcing herself to surpass the limit just to get Zidong's recognition, but unfortunately, the dragon is seen at first sight but not afterwards, its whereabouts are fleeting, today finally seeing her again, how can she easily give up?

  Zi Dong sat above, his posture relaxed and casual, without even looking at her, saying word by word: "You can go back, I won't accept you as my apprentice."
