The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Chapter 111: Congratulations on Gaining a Junior Disciple

Cangyue Country - Nanlai - Paradise

As the morning light breaks, a faint orange-red hue appears on the summer sky. The leisurely chirping of cicadas echoes in the lush green woods. The fresh air is filled with the fragrance of the earth. At this moment, the world is so harmonious and peaceful.

"Ah~" Mo Yufeng stretched lazily and walked out of the room. Last night, he stayed in the room next to Qianqing and Wanqi, which was also the only empty room in the courtyard. Looking at Jiuyou holding the rope, he said, "Young man, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

"Because of your arrival yesterday, the wood was not transported back. We have to leave. Miss is worried that Qianqing will not have firewood to burn," Jiuyou replied.

"I'll go with you to help," Mo Yufeng said very familiarly.

"Okay," Jiuyou agreed. To be honest, although they were both men who came to Utopia, he just didn't like Xue Jingchuan, but felt inexplicably close to Mo Yufeng.

The two walked and talked, and Mo Yufeng asked first: "Young man, how old are you?"

"twenty two"

"Wow, tsk tsk, you're so young! What a great age! I'm ten years older than you. Time is a butcher's knife, that's absolutely true. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that you're so young that you're dripping with tenderness. Cherish yourself!" Mo Yufeng was very emotional.

"Thirty-two isn't that big!"

"You'll know when you reach my age. Do you have a woman you like?" Mo Yufeng looked gossipy.

Jiuyou hesitated for a moment and then shook his head: "No."

Mo Yufeng smiled: "My junior sister is a good person, sweet and fierce!"

Jiuyou was obviously panicked: "She is a lady, I am a guard, Master Mo, you can't say anything nonsense."

"Just shut up! We are in the martial arts world, and people of the martial arts world don't care about trivial matters. What's the point of having a young lady's guard? If you like someone, then you have to work hard to get him. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. Young man, let me remind you that the chance to catch the moon first in a quiet tower is fleeting!" Mo Yufeng smiled sweetly.

Jiuyou was at a loss for a moment, staring blankly at Mo Yufeng, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Mo Yufeng smiled. "I'm ten years older than you. I've been traveling all over the country with my master since I was six. I've seen so many people and things. I've never been wrong when it comes to judging people. You're a good man and you're sincere to my junior sister. And my junior sister is definitely interested in you too. I could tell from what we drank last night that this girl is very possessive!"

"You... I still... don't quite understand." Jiuyou stuttered as usual when he was nervous.

Mo Yufeng kicked him directly: "Stop pretending to be confused. Aren't you a man? What don't you understand? A man should take the initiative. Only when you take the initiative can there be stories. Let me tell you, I pursued Su Su for three whole years, and finally I got her! Young man, come on! If you keep dithering like this, you will be in trouble if your junior sister meets someone who is good at talking."

Jiuyou's mind was spinning rapidly, thinking through everything he could think of: "You...we've only known each other for less than a day, why are you telling me all this?"

Mo Yufeng began to walk and talk, "Young man! For those of us who venture into the martial arts world, it's best to find someone we know well to be with us. That way, we can both feel at ease. Master and the Langya Pavilion Master have a bad theory. They think that if the Cang Yue Kingdom is defeated, Nangong Hanyi might send Junior Sister to marry in Dayu. That's why he named Junior Sister a princess. The Nangong family is full of evil intentions and has been up to no good for a long time."

"What? Marriage for a foreign alliance? How is that possible?" Jiuyou immediately refused to do it.

"Are you nervous? So you should take the initiative and let Junior Sister have a heart-warming concern. This way, she will swear to protect your love story to the death."

Jiuyou's mind was full of the marriage proposal: "I said this princess couldn't be elected. Sure enough, there's something wrong. The head of Langya Pavilion has a keen insight into the affairs of the world. He will definitely not be wrong in his calculations."

"Yes! That's why we let Junior Sister be the envoy of Langya Pavilion. Then the Pavilion Master will be able to step in to stop this matter. Master has also announced his little disciple to the world. He has a huge influence in the world, and Nangong Hanyi doesn't dare to use force. We actually have only one goal, to let Junior Sister live freely and preserve the last bit of Uncle Ye's bloodline, that's all," said Mo Yufeng.

"Betrayal!" Jiuyou cursed angrily, "The kingdom Marshal Ye built for them has been forgotten just like that."

"This is the usual style of the royal family. You are lucky. Uncle Mu, Master, and Pavilion Master all like you. Doesn't your Marshal Ye also like you as a son-in-law?" Mo Yufeng asked with a smile.

Jiuyou was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"Are you stupid? Do you think that under those circumstances, a teenager like you could have left the border army without anyone noticing, with your whereabouts and past completely erased? It was Langya Pavilion and Master who protected you. This was also Uncle Ye's last request. He sent you to Little Junior Sister in the hope that you could take care of his daughter for the rest of her life, ensuring that she would have no worries about food and clothing. He also hoped that you could become the Ye family's son-in-law!"

Jiu You was completely stunned. The amount of information he had received today was too much for him to digest. "I remember the first time I met Hall Master Mu, he said that Ye Shuai's choice wouldn't be wrong? Is... is that what he meant?"

Mo Yufeng smiled happily: "Yes! Otherwise, why would Uncle Mu say such a thing out of the blue? Your growth and actions over the years have not escaped the eyes of Langya Pavilion. This is also a test from Master and the others. Congratulations, young man, you have passed the assessment. Next, you have to work hard on your own to win the heart of Junior Sister. The main purpose of my visit this time is to tell you this. Come on! Brother is counting on you."

"but I…"

"Take your time to think about it. If there's anything you don't understand or don't know how to do, you can ask me, your brother. I promise to teach you everything I know. Come on, come on, where is the wood?"

"It's right in front of you..." Jiuyou's mind was still spinning.

"It's so big?" Mo Yufeng was shocked: "We should get that guy surnamed Xue to help carry it together!"

"Young Master Mo..."

"What did you call me?" Mo Yufeng interrupted Jiuyou.

Jiuyou slightly organized his words: "Master... Senior Brother?"

"That's right! You should just follow the example of Junior Sister. Master said that if you are willing, you can also become his disciple." Mo Yufeng said as he looked at Mu Tou.

"Really?" Jiuyou was very happy: "Can I take Senior Feng Qingyang as my master?"

"Of course. We'll make up for the apprenticeship ceremony when we meet later. Starting tomorrow, I can teach you on behalf of the master, little brother?"

"Greetings, Senior Brother" Jiuyou is a half-martial arts fanatic, and what makes him happiest is practicing martial arts.

"Junior Brother! Let's figure out how to get it back. When do you plan to go down the mountain?"

"Today is the seventh day of the lunar year, and the young lady said she would leave on the tenth."

"Then I can still rest for two days. That's great! I can take a break from my busy schedule!"

The two of them were working hard to carry the wood back. The sun was already shining brightly in the courtyard. Ye Ling drank too much last night and woke up in a daze in the middle of the morning.

"My lady! Please drink less in the future!" Qian Qing was helpless. While changing Ye Ling's clothes, she muttered, "Are you starving? I made your favorite beef soup and egg rolls!"

"My Qianqing is still the best, I love you!" Ye Ling said with a smile.

"You! Drinking too much is bad for your health. From now on, when I'm not around, please drink less!"

"Okay, I'll be obedient," Ye Ling raised his hand to promise.

"Where are the people?" Mo Yufeng's voice came.

Ye Ling walked out of the room: "Wow! You two brought this tree back?"

"That's right, we are men after all," Mo Yufeng said to Xue Jingchuan who had just left the house.

"Sister Ye, Jiuyou bullied me before, and now your senior brother is bullying me too. You have to do something about it!" Xue Jingchuan said.

"Whoever bullied you, put down what you are doing and listen to me." Mo Yufeng cleared his throat and said, "I declare that from today on, Jiuyou is my master's apprentice. This is what my master said before. I will teach him my skills on his behalf soon. Little sister, call him Second Brother!"

"I disagree"

Ye Ling's words made Jiuyou's heart skip a beat and he felt a little nervous.

"Why should he, who joined later, let me call him Senior Brother? Shouldn't he call me Senior Sister? First come first served, is there any rule?" Ye Ling said as he walked downstairs and raised an eyebrow at Jiu You: "Junior Brother, call me Senior Sister for me to hear."

"Pfft..." Mo Yufeng laughed. He was a little nervous just now, but after calming down, he said, "Junior sister, you are right. According to the sect's rules, regardless of age, you must follow the order of first come, first served. Junior brother, you will be the youngest from now on."

Jiuyou's nervousness vanished, and he smiled and bowed, "Greetings, Senior Sister."

"Oh~ That's great, I'm actually a senior sister. Don't worry, little junior brother, I will teach you martial arts when I have time." Ye Ling was very happy.

"No, wait a minute, why?" Xue Jingchuan was confused: "You... Isn't Senior Feng Qingyang very strict when accepting disciples? Jiuyou..."

"What's wrong with my Jiuyou? Master has a good eye for talent," Ye Ling immediately retorted.

"That's right. In the future I will have junior brothers and sisters, and my junior sister will be a master on the Langya List. This is such an honor! It's too great." Mo Yufeng looked proud.

Xue Jingchuan was deflated: "Great! It seems like you are all family, and you are excluding me."

"Young Master Xue, you are a guest. We treat guests very politely. How could we exclude you? Look, we don't even let you work," Mo Yufeng said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, Qianqing, I'll help you cook at noon, and we'll celebrate my junior brother's successful apprenticeship," said Ye Lingqi.

"Yes." Qian Qing secretly glanced at Jiuyou, and instantly felt that the distance between them was huge, and immediately smiled helplessly.

Jiuyou's eyes were always on Ye Ling. He felt a little nervous, not knowing why.

"Don't look at it anymore. It's yours and it won't run away. Come with me to saw wood," Mo Yufeng said with a smile.

"Senior brother, please stop talking nonsense!" Jiuyou spoke quickly.

"Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense, just take your time." Mo Yufeng looked at Xue Jingchuan and said, "Young Master Xue, can you come and help me?"

"You're working for guests? Is this how you treat guests?" Xue Jingchuan didn't move.

"Okay, guest, stay put and let's get started." Mo Yufeng did not object.
