Chapter 155 A Failed Apprentice is Useless
"So, this relationship is really too complicated." The earnest tone of his voice elicited a soft "oh" from those around him.
"Eldest brother didn't react, but I think second brother is deeply shocked. He probably even feels like crying himself to death, right?"
Shen Jingyuan really wanted to cry at this moment. He couldn't understand why their relationship had developed like this when they were master and disciple.
Why did Liu Xuewei keep her relationship with her master a secret from him all this time? She could have told him sooner.
Does she feel a sense of accomplishment watching him foolishly fight for her affections?
Hiding in Feng Zeyan's arms, Liu Xuewei didn't dare to lift her head when she heard the disciples' discussions; she was trembling all over.
"Get out of here, all of you!" Feng Zeyan coldly stared at the people who had trespassed onto his mountain peak.
Some inner and outer disciples naturally dared not confront Feng Zeyan and obediently left.
However, Su Heng, Shen Jingyuan, and some sect elders stayed behind to find out the truth about the matter.
“I will give everyone an explanation for this matter. You can go back now.” Feng Zeyan’s gaze was cold, and his tone left no room for doubt.
Although everyone still had a lot to say, no one dared to say anything more under Feng Zeyan's intimidating presence.
“Master…” Shen Jingyuan looked at Feng Zeyan and Liu Xuewei, wanting them to give him an explanation.
But Feng Zeyan didn't look at them at all, as if they didn't exist at all.
This attitude made Su Heng's heart sink. So, to him, a failed disciple is useless?
"Second Junior Brother, let's leave first." Su Heng patted Shen Jingyuan on the shoulder.
"Senior Brother, don't you want an explanation?" Shen Jingyuan looked at Su Heng with red eyes.
"It's not the right time yet, let's go." Su Heng glanced at Liu Xuewei in Feng Zeyan's arms and pulled him away.
For now, Feng Zeyan is simply ignoring them. If they continue to pester him, he might just physically kick them out.
"Master..." After everyone left, Liu Xuewei raised her head and looked at Feng Zeyan with a charming and alluring expression.
"It's okay, I'll take care of everything. You just need to stay behind me." Feng Zeyan stroked Liu Xuewei's face.
"Okay." Liu Xuewei nodded, blushing.
"Go back first. I'll come find you after I've dealt with this." Feng Zeyan withdrew his hand, and Liu Xuewei obediently complied.
After getting dressed, he obediently left.
Feng Zeyan then went to check the array's core, only to find that it was intact, though closed.
Feng Zeyan's face immediately darkened. This array's core was inside the array, and to close it, it had to be done within the array itself. But apart from him and Liu Xuewei, there was no one else here.
It couldn't have been Liu Xuewei who closed the formation, so who could it be? Could there be a problem with the formation?
Si Nansheng put away the recording stone in her hand and quietly followed behind Liu Xuewei. She felt that Liu Xuewei would definitely go to Su Heng and Shen Jingyuan to explain at this moment.
She wanted to see Liu Xuewei's tea talk.
Of course, she didn't forget to send a message to Mo Yu, telling him that she was fine and not to worry.
Su Heng escorted Shen Jingyuan back to his own courtyard. The two sat there without saying a word, each lost in their own thoughts.
The scene he had just witnessed had a great impact on Shen Jingyuan, and he still couldn't believe it was real.
Liu Xuewei rushed over in a hurry: "Senior Brother, Second Brother..."
Su Heng's gaze flashed with coldness as she looked at her, but Shen Jingyuan felt aggrieved and angrily turned his head away, refusing to look at her.
"I..." Liu Xuewei was about to explain when Su Heng stood up.
He didn't want to hear Liu Xuewei's explanation right now. He had a feeling that once he listened to Liu Xuewei, he might blindly believe everything she said, just like before.
He needs to go outside and calm down!
"I have some things to take care of. I'll come find you two when I'm done, and you two can have a good chat." Su Heng looked at Liu Xuewei, who didn't know what to say and could only nod.
"Second Senior Brother..." Liu Xuewei called out softly.
Shen Jingyuan glanced at Liu Xuewei, then angrily swept everything on the table onto the floor, startling Liu Xuewei.
"Second Senior Brother, I know you're very angry right now, but can you give me a chance to explain?" Liu Xuewei walked timidly in front of Shen Jingyuan.
"Fine, then explain yourself." Shen Jingyuan glared at Liu Xuewei with agitation.
"Second Senior Brother, you know I love you, but Master... I can't help it. My cultivation is too low, and he's my master. I can't resist him..."
Liu Xuewei attributed all the blame to Feng Zeyan for forcing her, without mentioning that she was acting voluntarily, even though she had gained many benefits from her relationship with Feng Zeyan.
"You mean, Master forced you?" Shen Jingyuan perked up as soon as he heard Liu Xuewei say that the person she liked was him.
"Mm." Liu Xuewei nodded cautiously.
"Damn it, how could he do this?" Shen Jingyuan slammed his fist on the table, breaking it in two.
"Second Senior Brother, I know I'm no longer the junior sister you remember, but I don't want you to misunderstand me, so I've come to explain."
Don't worry, I won't come looking for you again, and I won't bother you anymore. I'm sorry, Second Brother, I've let you down.
Liu Xuewei looked up at Shen Jingyuan with teary eyes. Shen Jingyuan, who had been so irritable just moments before, pulled Liu Xuewei into his arms.
"Junior Sister, don't worry, this isn't your fault. I won't despise you or abandon you. Don't be afraid, I'm here." Shen Jingyuan hugged Liu Xuewei to comfort her, but Liu Xuewei revealed a triumphant smile in his arms.
Little did he know, Si Nansheng had photographed everything clearly. Listening to Liu Xuewei's witty remarks, Si Nansheng was really tempted!
"Second Senior Brother, you're so good to me," Liu Xuewei said sweetly in Shen Jingyuan's arms.
Shen Jingyuan's heart melted at her voice. Thinking of Liu Xuewei's disheveled appearance in Feng Zeyan's arms, Shen Jingyuan's eyes turned red with jealousy.
"Junior Sister, do you really like me?" Shen Jingyuan looked down at Liu Xuewei, who nodded with a hint of coquettishness.
Without saying a word, Shen Jingyuan picked up Liu Xuewei and rushed into the room.
Si Nansheng originally intended to approach, but when she saw Su Heng, who had left earlier, walking this way, she quickly hid again.
As the eldest disciple of the direct lineage, Su Heng naturally had to go and see Feng Zeyan after such a serious incident.
This matter has blown up too much; if it's not handled properly, it could cause a lot of trouble.
But Feng Zeyan directly kicked Su Heng out, saying that he would handle the matter himself and that Su Heng should mind his own business.
Therefore, Su Heng had no choice but to leave first. However, thinking about Shen Jingyuan's attitude towards Liu Xuewei, he felt uneasy and turned back.
Just as he was about to push open the door, Su Heng's hand froze. With his high level of cultivation and amazing hearing, he heard the seductive music coming from inside the room.
He withdrew his hand and looked up at the sky.
"Nan Sheng, I'm sorry, it was my fault." Su Heng's murmur made Si Nan Sheng's body stiffen.
