Chapter 336 The Mysterious Silver-Faced Man
At midnight, the night is deep and everything is silent. Only the night breeze blows gently, bringing a bit of coolness.
Xu Wan had been immersed in the embrace of the stream for three hours.
Her whole body was radiating golden light, and colorful butterflies surrounded her dreamily, dancing around her.
Finally, her eyes slowly opened, and those blue eyes sparkled with intelligence and depth.
She stood up lightly from the stream, twisting her waist slightly, and exuding endless grace and strength as her muscles stretched.
The cat's tail swayed behind him, which was extremely charming.
When her eyes accidentally fell on the rocks not far away, she saw Bai Yuan sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
His left arm rested lightly on the whisk, and his whole body exuded a faint aura of cultivation. It was obvious that he was immersed in the practice of leaving his body, and was unaware of anything in the outside world.
Xu Wan flashed and stood in front of him silently like a ghost.
Just as she was about to call him softly, a sudden white shadow flew over.
He hugged her waist tightly, and at the same time, a big hand wearing a black leather glove quickly covered her mouth.
She could only make whimpering sounds and was unable to call for help.
The man waved his sleeves, and a biting cold wind suddenly blew up, blowing away the beautiful spirit butterflies and turning them into starlight that dissipated in the night sky.
At this moment, Bai Yuan was still immersed in the world of cultivation and was unable to perceive the sudden changes that Xu Wan was facing.
……
Deep in the spiritual plant garden, there is a cave hidden among the lush vegetation.
Xu Wan lay quietly on a huge rock, surrounded by a faint spiritual power.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes sharply, a hint of alertness flashed in her eyes, and then she sat up.
Her eyes were fixed on the figure in front of her. The person was dressed in flowing white clothes. He was standing with his back to her, his hands behind his back, and his posture was graceful.
He was wearing a pair of black gloves, which added a touch of mystery to his face.
Xu Wan jumped down from the rock lightly, her steps were light and agile.
She quickly walked around to the man, bowed respectfully and said, "Senior."
The man had an exquisitely shaped silver mask covering his face. The mask was cold and hard, emitting a clear light. In the interweaving of light and shadow, it was mysterious and dazzling.
The curve of the mask fits his face perfectly, revealing his broad and full forehead, and his skin has a cool white color.
In the eye holes of the mask were a pair of deep eyes, which seemed to hide a bottomless pool.
There are traces of sharpness in the darkness, as if it can see through everything in the world, and it seems to hide countless unknown stories.
The silver-faced man nodded slightly in response.
Xu Wan looked around and found herself in a cave. The stone walls around her were flashing with strange light.
The entrance to the cave was tightly covered by a golden barrier, shining brightly and inspiring awe.
Seeing this scene, Xu Wan couldn't help but start to feel flustered. Her breathing became a little rapid, and her eyes revealed a hint of uneasiness and confusion.
The silver-faced man leaned over, gently stroking her soft cat ears with his slender fingers, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a faint smile bloomed at the corners of his lips.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you."
His voice was low and gentle, as if it could dispel all fear.
Xu Wan felt a strange tingling sensation spreading from the tip of her ear to her entire body.
When he touched her cat ears, they automatically hid back in an instant, and the cat tail behind her disappeared without a trace.
Seeing Xu Wan's confused expression, the silver-faced man gracefully withdrew his hand, resting it on his chin, staring at Xu Wan with tenderness in his eyes.
He patiently explained, "I am a god from the Ninth Heaven.
I passed by this place tonight on a cloud, and seeing your serious cultivation, I was quite impressed.
So I brought you here to teach you a thing or two."
When Xu Wan heard this, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she still didn't dare to believe it.
She asked softly, "God?
Will take a fancy to me, a little cat demon,
Senior, do you want to take me as your disciple?"
The silver-faced man nodded slightly, his eyes smiling.
His tone was full of expectation: “Yes,
I see you as possessing the deity of a god, with extraordinary talent, and I intend to accept you as my personal disciple."
Xu Wan touched his head, feeling confused.
All this happened too suddenly, as if it were a dream, catching her off guard.
Then she rubbed her head again.
But I found that the man in front of me was still there.
That smile, that look, it's so real.
Xu Wan smiled back politely, but ripples appeared in her heart.
She asked curiously, "Then, Senior, what kind of magic do you know?"
The silver-faced man was secretly delighted and was about to reach out to hold Xu Wan's hand, but suddenly stopped.
The hand wearing a black leather glove just stayed in the air, as if time had frozen at this moment, waiting for Xu Wan's response.
Xu Wan looked him up and down, her eyes revealing a hint of curiosity and inquiry.
She controlled her spiritual consciousness, trying to peek into the face hidden under his mask.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not make out his face.
She stared quietly into his eyes, those deep eyes seemed to contain endless stories.
Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling came over her heart. She actually felt that she had seen these eyes somewhere before. The familiarity made her slightly startled.
But for a moment, she couldn't remember it.
After a moment, Xu Wan smiled slightly, and that smile was as charming as a flower blooming in spring.
She held his hand tightly, which was suspended in the air, and began to introduce him politely and confidently: "Hello, Senior,
My name is Xu Wan, and my Taoist name is Jinglian.
Thank you for your kindness, and I hope you will continue to guide me for the rest of my life."
When she held the silver-faced man's hand, his eyes flashed with a strange light in an instant.
He replied affectionately: "Okay, Xu Wan,
For eternity to come, I will never be stingy with my teachings."
Upon hearing this, Xu Wan couldn't help but exclaimed, "Really?
Is there any requirement to become your disciple? Do I need to contribute spirit stones?"
The silver-faced man reached back his hand, leaned over and gently touched her head.
He smiled and said, "You are so cute. I only need you to practice seriously when I accept you as my disciple. The last thing I lack is spirit stones."
Xu Wan widened her eyes and stared at him, thinking secretly in her heart.
Suddenly, she began to twist her waist, smiled charmingly, and said: "Since the senior is willing to accept me as his disciple,
Then why don't you give me fifty taels of spirit stones first?
I will repay you double in the future."
The silver-faced man flicked her forehead lightly.
He said lovingly, "You little wild cat."
After saying that, he took out a golden spirit stone from his sleeve. The spirit stone emitted a golden light and was obviously worth a lot of money.
The silver-faced man directly pulled Xu Wan's hand and put it into her hand without hesitation.
Xu Wan looked at the spirit stone in her hand, her eyes full of disbelief.
She quickly put the spirit stone into her sleeve, her eyes revealing a hint of panic and anxiety.
At this moment, all she wanted was to escape from this place that made her feel extremely scared as soon as possible.
Her figure was as fast as lightning, and in an instant she teleported to the mysterious cave entrance.
She rushed towards the golden barrier without hesitation, wanting only to break free and gain freedom.
However, the barrier seemed to have an invisible power, and she was violently bounced back.
At this critical moment, the silver-faced man was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and instantly held her firmly in his arms like a ghost.
Xu Wan lowered her head helplessly, her eyes full of pleading.
The voice was filled with tears and pleading: "Senior, please let me go.
We have no grudges against each other, please don't eat me, I'm afraid of pain."
