Chapter 15 The wolf cub apprentice is a loyal dog That night, North Peak was shrouded in thick fog. Even standing under the porch, one could not see the peach trees in the courtyard clearly. A petite figure tiptoed out of a house, tiptoed all the way to the most remote part of the wall and stood still. With the help of the stone lamp in the corner, I could barely see the man's face. It was Yue Qingru who had just been accepted into the Yaoguang Sect. Her chest rose and fell, as if she was gathering her energy, and then she leaped onto the high wall. But Yue Qingru didn't expect that there was already a person standing on the wall, wearing a loose robe and standing on the brick wall with his hands in his pockets. The person was actually his own master He Qing! Yue Qingru was so frightened that she gasped and sat down on the wall, her amber eyes dilated a little. He Qing put his hand over his lips and yawned: "Where do you want to run to?" "I..." Yue Qingru replied tremblingly: "The disciple saw that the moonlight was very beautiful, so he wanted to come out to see the moon." He Qing was amused and pointed to the thick fog that covered the sky and the moon above his head: "Look at the moon?"
"..." Seeing Yue Qingru blushing after being exposed, He Qing said, "You are worried that your identity will be exposed at the lighting ceremony in three days, right?" When Yue Qingru heard this, his eyes immediately became alert and fierce. If tonight was a full moon night, he would probably explode on the spot. He Qing squatted on one knee, put his right hand casually on his bent knee, and said calmly: "Do you remember what I said when I accepted you? What do I require of my apprentice?" The distance between the two of them suddenly shortened. Yue Qingru couldn't help but lean back and repeat uncertainly: "You are smart, don't be suspicious..." "Good answer." He Qing praised quickly, and then said slowly: "I know where you come from. If I dare to accept you as my disciple, I will not care about those meaningless things, so you don't have to run at all." After hearing this, Yue Qingru's expression changed from bright to dark. For a moment, she was unsure whether He Qing was referring to the fact that she was half-demon. Seeing Yue Qingru like a little wolf cornered, He Qing was suddenly touched. She said gently, "Chang Ming Deng, I can help you, but you have to promise me one thing." Yue Qingru swallowed nervously and perked up: "What, what's the matter?" He Qing smiled mysteriously, stretched out his right hand and gently patted Yue Qingru's tightly wrapped head: "Let me touch your ears." "?!" Master actually saw through her true identity?! Lu Li, who was leaning against a dark corner with his arms folded, also heard these words. He closed his eyes and chuckled, seeming a little helpless. Lu Li was not able to hide the fact that Yue Qingru slipped out of the room. In order to confirm his guess, he concealed his breath and followed. Le Qingru was very concerned when he saw his reaction during the day. Although Lu Li's current body can deceive both immortals and demons, it may not be able to deceive the monsters. Especially the monsters that have transformed into animals, they still retain the instincts of wild beasts, just like the monster bats that besieged He Qing when he first met him. Even though they couldn't see through his identity, they could sense his strange aura. If Yue Qingru was also a demon and had keenly sensed something, Lu Li would not have left this trouble behind. But he never expected that he would see this scene as soon as he followed over. Lu Li smiled faintly, leaned lazily against the pillar, looked at He Qing on the wall, who was unable to hide his curiosity, rubbed his hands and waited for the battle. Le Qingru, who was stared at by her, was embarrassed and helpless, and untied the old cloth wrapped around her head.
The wide cloth was removed, and Le Qingru's light gray hair fell down, and two triangular ears on top of her head popped out. Seeing this, He Qing immediately stretched out his hands and pinched them on the left and right, even making a trembling sound: "Ah~ So cute!" When she was reading the book, she was extremely interested in the ears of this half-demon. Now that she can finally touch them, she is very satisfied! Yue Qingru lowered her head and let He Qing do whatever he wanted. Her cheeks gradually turned red. In order to hide her shyness and embarrassment, she had to bite the bullet and ask, "Master, will you really help me?" He Qing kept his hands moving as he responded, "Help! You are my apprentice, how could I not help you?" He Qing's answer was so straightforward that Yue Qingru was stunned for a moment, and then her tense muscles finally relaxed. She looked carefully at her master, who was as happy as a little girl, through her hair, and a small smile appeared on her lips involuntarily. Yue Qingru asked with a guilty conscience: "Master, don't you want to ask me about my past?" After all, with a half-human, half-demon body like mine, he would cause trouble wherever he went. He Qing sensed that Yue Qingru was in a low mood, paused, took his hand back, and said expressionlessly: "When you entered the sect, I told you that you needed to know one thing, what was it?" Yue Qingru thought about it, tears welled up in her eyes, and she said in a nasal voice, "I don't need to explain to anyone what I do in the Yaoguang Sect." "That's a good answer." He Qing gently stroked the top of Yue Qingru's head and said slowly, "As long as you are right in what you do, this 'anyone' naturally includes me. Yiru, I will accept you as my disciple." "..." He Qing's voice was not loud, but it gave Yue Qingru the strength she needed most. Yue Qingru's mother was a kind-hearted woman who was weak. Whenever people from the village came to her house, even if it was her daughter who was clearly bullied, the mother would repeat over and over again the words that she had explained thousands of times. Yue Qingru was tired of defending herself and was no longer willing to face the suspicious eyes of others and try every means to prove herself. So, when Yue Qingru heard He Qing confidently say "No need to explain to anyone" in the hall, she made the decision almost instantly. She wants to join the Yaoguang Sect and become the apprentice of the most capable leader! In particular, after knowing Yue Qingru's identity, He Qing not only did not dislike her ears, the symbol of being half-demon, but he was still determined to take her as his disciple. In Yue Qingru's heart, he already regarded He Qing as the person he trusted the most. After He Qing wrapped the headscarf for Le Qingru, he looked down and saw that Le Qingru's face was flushed with excitement, and she was staring at her with determined eyes as if she wanted to join the party. Yue Qing Ruo Duan said: "Master, from now on, you are one of the most important people in my life! Whatever you tell me to do, I will do it without hesitation, even if I die!" He Qing was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing and thought: Is it because they are all canines? This kid looks a bit like a loyal dog... Lu Li, who was in a far corner, finished watching the show and disappeared silently into the complete darkness. Since this half-demon has not left Lingshan, he doesn't need to be in a hurry. However, tonight's scene made Lu Li discover another side of He Qing, a side that was completely different from the side he usually tried to keep. (End of this chapter)
