NOVEL NEXT Chapter 413 Heavenly Master 120
As a result, Dong Wentao managed to break her understanding. Not only did his courage not improve, but even with a pair of Yin Yang Eyes that every Heavenly Master dreams of, after such a long time of cultivation, he hadn't even achieved the first step of becoming a Heavenly Master, which is to draw Spiritual Energy into his body!
Situ Shuangshuang...
She felt that her confidence had been seriously shaken. Previously, Situ Shuangshuang thought at least she could teach Dong Wentao to be able to protect himself!
But the reality is that when Dong Wentao left, he was just as he was when he returned, except he was almost scared out of his wits by her. In short, to put it simply, this training had no results, it was still the same as before.
Situ Shuangshuang was deeply affected this time. All the way back home, she was immersed in the blow of realizing how poor her teaching ability was, while Dong Wentao, tormented to the point of death by Situ Shuangshuang, was also despairing over his unexpectedly poor aptitude, equally dejected.
Upon entering the door, Situ Shuangshuang saw her master Chen Qi, who had already returned, along with a very handsome and mature middle-aged man. Dong Wentao, who had been full of dejection, was suddenly spirited when he saw this man and called out excitedly, "Dad!"
This man was Chen Qi's friend, Dong Wentao's father, Dong Ling! Seeing his son, Dong Ling was also very happy. His son was born with abnormalities, and from childhood to adulthood, he had been worried about him constantly, fearing daily that the child might not grow up safely!
Fortunately, Dong Ling and Chen Qi were friends, and Chen Qi happened to be present at Dong Wentao's birth. He immediately noticed Dong Wentao's unusual eyes and took out a family-heirloom Sealing Jade Pendant, which suppressed his son's Yin Yang Eyes for all these years.
Dong Wentao always thought that the Jade Pendant he wore from a young age was lost, but in fact, it had exhausted its Spiritual Energy and crumbled into ashes!
The Yin Yang Eyes are powerful, and the Jade Pendant sealing them would naturally consume Spiritual Energy. Once the Spiritual Energy was depleted, it would naturally lose its effectiveness and disappear.
This time, Dong Ling and Chen Qi went into the uninhabited mountain depths for more than a month, exhausting untold manpower and resources, all to ensure that this precious son could continue to live safely.
The father and son reunion was incredibly emotional, and although the meeting between Situ Shuangshuang and Chen Qi as master and apprentice didn't appear as emotional, it was equally filled with warmth.
After both families had a warm reunion and introduced each other, Situ Shuangshuang finally understood why her master hurriedly left Dong Wentao with her and disappeared.
Situ Shuangshuang looked at the palm-sized green jade in front of her. This is the treasure her master and Dong Ling, along with countless others, ventured deep into the mountains searching for nearly a month to retrieve!
The value of this green jade might not be high on the jade market, but for a Heavenly Master, jade is used to create Magic Artifacts, where the quality of appearance isn't important; what matters is the Qi contained within!
This green jade may not look good on the outside, but to a Heavenly Master, it's worth its weight in gold, because in the parlance of Heavenly Masters, this is Green Dragon Jade! The so-called Green Dragon Jade refers to jade existing in the heart of the Dragon Vein.
The Green Dragon Jade, nourished by the aura of the entire Dragon Vein in this place, has miraculous effects in dispelling demons! Naturally, anything growing in such places, whether jade, gems, crystals, or jadeite, is referred to as Green Dragon Jade in Heavenly Masters' terminology!
Why did Chen Qi and Dong Ling go out for so long to find Green Dragon Jade, what else could it be for? Surely it was for Dong Wentao's pair of Yin Yang Eyes!
The previous jade that Chen Qi gave to Dong Wentao was used to seal the Yin Yang Eyes. This time, the jade is for Dong Wentao's protection. Its main function is to protect Dong Wentao from being devoured by Evil Ghosts who covet his Yin Yang Eyes when he cannot yet control them!
Now that Situ Shuangshuang's skills have surpassed her master Chen Qi, the task of carving the Green Dragon Jade has fallen on her.
When carving the Green Dragon Jade, a carving knife isn't used, but Situ Shuangshuang's own Mana. She needs to concentrate fully, using her Mana to draw an Array within the Green Dragon Jade.
The purpose of this Array is to activate the Dragon Energy absorbed over the years by the Green Dragon Jade within the Dragon Vein, forming an Azure Dragon swirling and breathing within the Array. When the person wearing the Jade Pendant encounters a ghostly assault, the Azure Dragon will appear to slay the Evil Ghost!
This process requires Situ Shuangshuang to be absolutely focused and meticulous because once she makes a mistake, this rare Green Dragon Jade would be ruined!
However, before Situ Shuangshuang began her seclusion to carve the Green Dragon Jade, she was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Lu Lei. In fact, since Situ Shuangshuang and Dong Wentao went to see Mr. Hua, Lu Lei had come by almost every day to check if Situ Shuangshuang had returned!
Lu Lei's intentions were simple. He came to ask about the little black cat. This little black cat was a stray that Lu Lei had picked up. At the time, it was just a small kitten; perhaps its owner felt black cats were unlucky and threw it away.
After Lu Lei picked up the black cat, he carefully fed it milk and cooked fish, raising it to adulthood. He even gave the black cat a name, calling it Mo'er, because this little black cat was entirely black without a trace of other colors, lying there with its eyes closed like a block of black ink.
Before, in the Yin Realm, although Lu Lei had lost his memories of the mortal world, he still remembered his time there. So, he distinctly remembered seeing Mo'er brought out by Situ Shuangshuang!
After waking up, Lu Lei had heard from his mother that he survived because Mo'er sacrificed her own life to save his. Moreover, back in the Yin Realm, it was Mo'er who accompanied him all the way. At that time, Lu Lei didn't know what Mo'er was doing, but now, with his memory restored, Lu Lei understood that Mo'er was leading him back to the mortal world.
Although Lu Lei didn't know why Mo'er's glow seemed to fade later, he instinctively felt that it was nothing good, so he had been very worried about Mo'er's situation in recent days. That's why he came to see Situ Shuangshuang every day, hoping to ask about Mo'er's condition.
Knowing that Lu Lei still remembered Mo'er and came every day, Situ Shuangshuang's attitude towards him changed. Such concern for Mo'er was finally not in vain for Mo'er's self-sacrifice to save him!
Situ Shuangshuang directly released Mo'er from the small coffin. Mo'er, having awakened its Spiritual Wisdom early, could already communicate with humans using language. However, Mo'er was clever; it knew something was wrong with itself before and didn't show its intelligence much beyond that of an ordinary cat.
Now that Mo'er is going to cultivate with Situ Shuangshuang, under her protection, it no longer needs such cautiousness. Moreover, Lu Lei already knows of its special nature, so there's nothing more to hide.
Situ Shuangshuang left Mo'er to stay and have a private conversation with Lu Lei, while she chose to leave first. The path Mo'er would take has already destined that it couldn't have any intersections with Lu Lei. After Lu Lei's death, he might be reborn into a good family due to the Merit he accumulated in this life, destined to be born into wealth and a smooth life.
