C110 Sentimental Cliff Edge

The night was peaceful and quiet. There were many stars in the sky, and a faint silver screen of light stretched across both ends of the sky. It was almost seventy years old. Not far away in the valley, the crickets were singing a moving song.

At the edge of the cliff in front of Wu Dang Mountain, Shao Jian was still standing there, staring at the night sky. The mountain in the darkness, the passage of time, the training of the martial arts world, but they could not erase the hint of arrogance on his face.

At this time, Master Xuanyang had already floated behind him, and softly shouted. "Jian'er, Master knows that you're here."

Shao Jian turned around and smiled, "Master, you're here."

Master Xuanyang replied, "Are you thinking about something again?"

Shao Jian smiled faintly: "I haven't stood here for a long time to sense the aura of Mount Wudang. I wonder when I will leave upon returning this time."

Master Xuanyang let out a long breath, took two steps forward, and stood at the edge of the cliff. The two stood there without saying a word, and a cool breeze blew towards them from the valley.

After a while, he took a few deep breaths, but did not turn his head back. He looked at the blurry outline of the mountains in the darkness, and said slowly: "Master, this disciple has been to the Yan Men Guan, and has even met Great General Yang Yanzhao."

Master Xuanyang's body trembled slightly as a complicated expression appeared on his face. It was clear that he found those words unbelievable. He blurted out, "What …"

Because Shao Jian did not turn around, he did not notice the change in Master Xuanyang's expression.

Master Xuanyang 'En' asked: "Did he mention anything to you?"

Shao Jian nodded his head: "He said that disciple is like his father's foster brother, disciple Ye does not understand the true meaning behind his words."

Master Xuanyang was startled again, and asked closely: "Then what else did he tell you?"

Shao Jian then repeated what he had said to Yang Yanzhao back when he was at Yan Men Guan. After Master Xuanyang heard this, he let out a soft sigh, and his heart became filled with intense fighting intent.

Shao Jian saw that Master Xuanyang's expression was strange and immediately asked: "Master, what's wrong?"

Master Xuanyang smiled and said, "Master is fine, don't worry about me." Then, he slowly said as if he was reminiscing the past, "Back then, the adopted brother of General was indeed the head disciple of Master, and for the past few decades, Master only accepted two disciples, namely the adopted brother of you and Marshal Yang Ye."

After Shao Jian heard this, he asked in disbelief, "What?"

The Master Xuanyang looked into the distance and said: "Perhaps this is fate, the Xuan-Yuan Sword on you is his personal weapon back then, and now it has become yours, this is also a kind of fate."

It looks like you are the true owner of this divine sword. When the buddhist dao says the word 'fate,' if fate is on your side, then gathering, if fate is not on your side, then scatter, at that time when I let you go to the secret room, master only had the intention of giving it a try, but I never thought that you would be able to do it, it really excites Master, the Xuan-Yuan Sword has finally found the successor to Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan, its second master. "

Upon mentioning the Xuan-Yuan Sword, Shao Jian recalled that there was still a Mysterious Nine Heavens Zither in Wu Dang Secret Room and couldn't help but ask: "Master, then who is the owner of the Mysterious Nine Heavens Zither?"

Master Xuanyang smiled slightly and said: "Its master will appear soon. This is just something that will happen sooner or later. Everything has been decided."

Shao Jian said as if he did not quite understand the situation, "Then Master, do you think it is possible for Miss Sisi from the Emei's pie to become its master?"

Master Xuanyang laughed and said: "This will depend on her luck. If she is really the destined master of the profound guqin, master doesn't have any regrets."

Shao Jian asked in puzzlement: "Since master also wants Miss Sisi to have this Divine Zither, why not just give it to her?"

Everything depends on luck. If Miss Sisi is really the master of the profound guqin, then they will definitely have a telepathic connection to it, just like how it is between you and the Xuan-Yuan Sword. Other than you, no one else will be able to use it.

It was the first time for Shao Jian to hear such tacit understanding between a person and their weapon. His heart involuntarily trembled, and he reached out his hand to gently stroke the Xuan-Yuan Sword behind him.

At this moment, Zhang Wudie's voice came from behind the two of them, "Shao Jian."

Master Xuanyang smiled, and lightly patted Shao Jian's shoulders: "Miss Wu Die is here, go ahead and chat, master won't disturb us any longer." As he turned around, he suddenly thought of something and said earnestly, "Remember what Master said. You must cherish every single person around you that is worthy of your cherishment." With that, he bid farewell to Zhang Wudie and walked into the courtyard.

Shao Jian looked deeply at Master Xuanyang's back figure, he knew the meaning behind his words, and said softly: "Thank you master, this disciple knows what to do."

Zhang Wudie smiled and came over to his side: "Hehe, why did you come here? With how big Wu Dang is, it took me half a day to find you, luckily I have Lan Feng to guide me."

Lowering his head to look, he could faintly see a bottomless abyss below his feet. Zhang Wudie could not help but be shocked, he retreated a few steps and said to Shao Jian: "It's this high, don't tell me you're not afraid of falling?"

Shao Jian looked at Zhang Wudie's cute face, and laughed: "If you don't believe me, come over and try me."

Zhang Wudie, still in a panicked state, shook her head and said, "I'm not coming over. If I fall down, I'll lose my life."

Shao Jian said: "With me here, I won't let you fall." As he spoke, he extended a hand towards Zhang Wudie.

The two of them tightly held each other, their bodies leaning on each other. The cool breeze of late night blew past Zhang Wudie's jet-black hair, and her white dress fluttered in the wind, like a butterfly dancing in the middle of the night.

Zhang Wudie slowly raised her head and looked at Shao Jian's handsome face with affection, and asked: "Do you like to stand here quietly and look into the distance?"

Shao Jian lowered his head to look at Zhang Wudie's eyes that were like water, and said gently: "Now that you are by my side, I will not be standing here alone, in a daze."

It was exactly as he had said. Countless times, Shao Jian had silently stood alone at the edge of this cliff and thought about things that had never happened before. Some vague memories had appeared, but tonight, there was a close female friend by his side.

Zhang Wudie snorted, she extended two fists and lightly punched Shao Jian's chest, and said: "I never thought that you would be so evil as well."

Shao Jian smiled and pulled her into his embrace: "The martial arts world is going to fall into chaos soon, and all the experts from Green Forest League and Green Forest League are chasing after me, the road in the future will be extremely dangerous, will you still follow me to roam the martial arts world?"

Zhang Wudie said without hesitation: "I will always be by your side."

Shao Jian did not expect the other party's reply to be so straightforward, and asked puzzledly: "Why?"

Zhang Wudie slightly smiled and said: "No reason, maybe it's just as your master said, this is fate."

Shao Jian could not help but feel a ripple in his heart, he raised his head and looked at the faint silver light screen in the night sky, the 'Milky Way', and said casually, "It's almost the Double Seventh Festival, the two of us have waited for an entire year, and now we can talk about the pain of separation."

Zhang Wudie immediately snatched back: "They are quite pitiful, the Queen Mother in the sky is truly evil. She separated them on both sides of the Milky Way, where they can't meet each other even though they're looking at each other from afar. She only allowed them to meet for a short day in a year.

After saying that, a trace of sadness appeared on Zhang Wudie's face, as if she had been infected by the pain of that legendary figure's love for him.

Shao Jian looked at her and asked: Then, what do you think will happen in the future?

Zhang Wudie thought for a while and said: "I don't want to be a weaver, and even more so, I don't want you to be an ox. We want to be together for three lifetimes, can you promise me that?" With that, she looked at Shao Jian's blurry face in the darkness.

Shao Jian solemnly nodded his head: "I promise you, that meeting each other in this life is our fate. I hope that you will be by my side in the next life, that we will live together and travel together through the martial arts world for three lifetimes, and that we will never part."

These words were extremely touching, Shao Jian slowly lowered his head to look at the night sky, which was still filled with his personality. The charming and enchanting Zhang Wudie, lightly kissed her soft red lips.

Zhang Wudie rested her head against Shao Jian's broad and firm chest, the two of them tightly clenched their hands, looking at the mountains in the distance. Here, they had made a promise to each other, and their fate was sealed, maybe this was what Master Xuanyang had said that caused Shao Jian to wake up, or maybe their meeting in this life was destined to happen …
