My Master Knows It All

1148: Chapter 292_6 1148: Chapter 292_6 “Just where can I find such a person?”

Huan You was nursing a headache when he saw both a male and a female cultivator flying towards him.

In the world of immortal cultivation, whether male or female cultivators, they were generally handsome and beautiful, and the two approaching figures were of a particularly striking kind even among cultivators, particularly the man, whose features were more delicate than many immortals.

Almost the instant he noticed them, they also became aware of his presence.

“Ren Xiaoyao?”

“Huan You?”

The two of them called out each other’s names and burst into laughter, flying towards each other in an instant.

Huan You glanced at the man, before his gaze landed on the woman standing next to him, still exceptionally beautiful despite standing beside the man.

“This is my junior sister, Zhi Nuo,” Ren Xiaoyao said, pointing to the woman beside him.

Then he introduced Huan You to her, “This is Huan You, whom I’ve mentioned before.”

Huan You gave a formal bow to the woman, “Pleased to meet you, Immortal Zhi Nuo.

Dao Companion Ren has often spoken of you when we’ve been together.”

“Ah?” Upon hearing this, Zhi Nuo let out an almost joyful gasp, but then she shook her head and laughed, “However, I’m afraid you’ve probably heard another name from my senior brother’s mouth even more frequently.”

Huan You smiled awkwardly but didn’t respond.

He and Ren Xiaoyao had met by chance, at the time when they had just entered the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, neither of them as strong as they were now.

At that time, they both faced danger and had no choice but to journey together, ultimately fighting their way out alive.

That time, they truly shared a life and death experience.

Later, when Huan You discovered an ancient ruin and wanted to enter, he thought of Ren Xiaoyao first and invited him.

The two once again ventured together, facing numerous perils and resolving all dangers with their joint efforts.

Since then, they had formed a deep friendship.

Though they had not sworn brotherhood, Huan You felt it was as significant as if they had.

Actually, Ren Xiaoyao had once suggested swearing brotherhood with him, but Huan You had declined.

He was worried it would affect Ren Xiaoyao.

After all, Ren Xiaoyao came from a renowned Great Teaching, while he was a loose cultivator, one leaning between the righteous and the evil path but tending more towards the latter.

Otherwise, the Demon Sound Sect wouldn’t have approached him.

In fact, this time, when the ruin appeared, he had wanted to invite Ren Xiaoyao for the adventure, but he had ultimately decided against it.

After all, in many people’s eyes, he was a cultivator leaning towards the evil path.

If he ventured out with Ren Xiaoyao too often, people would surely talk, and he had enemies within some of the Great Teachings.

What should he do if they encountered those people while with Ren Xiaoyao?

Thus he entered the ruins with someone else instead, but now that person was dead, and unexpectedly, he met Ren Xiaoyao here.

“Huan You, why are you here alone?” Ren Xiaoyao looked curiously at Huan You, puzzled, “For a ruin like this, you should bring a reliable friend along.

After all, anyone who can come here is surely rushing to do so.

Although you’re strong, it’s too dangerous to be alone.

Perhaps only Immortal Bi Yue, who is at the Golden Core Stage limit, can enter such a place alone.

Why didn’t you come to find me?”

Although it was the first time Huan You had met Zhi Nuo, he knew she was referring to Immortal Bi Yue, the person Ren Xiaoyao mentioned more frequently.

Like Immortals, Ren Xiaoyao would talk about Immortal Bi Yue every other sentence.

Zhi Nuo wore an expression of ‘I knew it’ and shook her head resignedly, “Senior brother, you’re wrong.

Haven’t you heard?

Immortal Bi Yue isn’t alone now; she’s accompanied by a male cultivator, a master of musical rhythm.”

Ren Xiaoyao immediately shook his head, “That’s impossible.

The news must be false.

You know, I’ve known Bi Yue for a very long time.

I was still young before the Reversal Mini Epoch Period.

I followed my master to debate with the Dragon Chant Sect.

That’s when I met Immortal Bi Yue.

At that time, Bi Yue had just finished Core Formation, and I was already at Great Perfection of Core Formation.

Yet, I was defeated by Immortal Bi Yue.

From that moment on, I paid special attention to her.

I know her; she would never venture out alone with a male cultivator, even if he was from the Dragon Chant Sect, unless he was her brother or another relative.”

“Senior brother, stop deceiving yourself,” Zhi Nuo said ruthlessly, “On our way here, you must have heard many people say that Immortal Bi Yue really is with a male cultivator, and he’s a master of musical rhythm.

You understand Bi Yue very well.

It’s perfectly normal for her to associate with a master of music, isn’t it?”

“Normal?

What’s normal about that?” Ren Xiaoyao exclaimed, “That Qu Wu Master is also a master of musical rhythm, even recognized as the number one in the Eastern Province.

But Immortal Bi Yue still rejected him, didn’t she?

You guys don’t understand her at all.”

Ren Xiaoyao sighed slightly before continuing, “Do you know why Bi Yue rejected me at first?

Because she said that her Dao Companion must be someone who surpasses her.”

Saying this, his face revealed a hint of mystery, whispering, “You probably don’t know, in Immortal Bi Yue’s family, the women are always stronger than the men.

Her mother is stronger than her father, her grandmother stronger than her grandfather, her maternal grandmother stronger than her maternal grandfather.

So, she intends to find someone who surpasses her in strength.

Since Qu Wu Master is just approaching the Golden Core stage limit, of course, she wouldn’t choose him.”

Zhi Nuo responded sarcastically, “Oh?

Now it’s the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, and she’s at the Golden Core Stage limit.

Who could be stronger than her?

Once the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth ends, there may be those who are stronger, but she will continue to cultivate and break through.

How can she ensure that the Dao Companion she finds will always be stronger than her?

Unless she stops cultivating, it seems to me she might as well give up on finding a Dao Companion.”
