My apprentice is a little weird?

Chapter 169 3 Lives 3 Dreams

As soon as Jiang Yan opened the door, he was overwhelmed by the mountain of spiritual materials and magic weapons behind the door...

Shen Ming was prepared. The moment Jiang Yan was buried, he scurried to the side. At this moment, he was standing there with a smile, looking at Jiang Yan, who only had half of his arm exposed.

"Master, that's all~"

"Shen Ming didn't know where Master's master bedroom was, so he just piled them up at the door~"

Jiang Yan struggled to climb out from the pile of treasures. The whole process could really be described as "luxurious".

Under his buttocks was the essence of the Five Elements, under his feet was a broken branch of the ancient Wind and Thunder Tree, his left hand was supporting the water spirit sand, his right hand was holding a square vine, and on his face was hung an unknown tonic spiritual plant.

"Who sent these..."

Jiang Yan crawled out from the pile of treasures with difficulty and asked subconsciously, but then he thought of something and frowned slightly.

"It was sent by those sects. They contacted Ming'er indirectly in order to curry favor with me~"

Seeing Jiang Yan frowning, Shen Ming thought he was in a bad mood, so she stepped forward, stretched out her hand, held Jiang Yan and said softly:

"Master, if you don't like Shen Ming accepting these things, then return them all. Shen Ming doesn't want them anyway."

"Tsk!"

Jiang Yan's face stiffened and he looked at Shen Ming with a serious expression. The serious atmosphere made her nervous.

"How foolish! When did your teacher ever teach you such a bad habit?"

"You actually want to give away the precious materials that were sent to your doorstep for free?! Should the recipient be afraid of the giver? Should you even give them face? What kind of logic is this?"

"Don't do this again in the future. You must strive for enough benefits for yourself within your ability, so that you can live a comfortable and decent life in this world of immortal cultivation. You must dare to think and act. Young people are so timid."

Shen Ming nodded in confusion, but when he came to his senses and looked again, he found that the pile of precious materials had shrunk by half.

"Master?"

Jiang Yan remained calm.

"What's wrong~"

"Shen Ming feels that this pile of precious materials seems to be a little less than before..."

"Oh, that's your illusion. There is a magic tool that causes hallucinations in here. What you just saw was an illusion caused by that thing. Just now, your master helped you to break the illusion and you woke up."

"Oh... is that so?"

"Yeah, that's it~"

Shen Ming stared at Jiang Yan with his big eyes open without blinking, and the latter remained expressionless throughout.

"It is getting late today. I have been suffering from too much damage recently, so I need to recuperate. As for these precious materials, you cannot use them at this stage. After you pass the disciple trial and pay homage to the mountain gate, I will give them to you formally~"

"I am going to retreat now. You can stay next door. If you don't have anything else, don't disturb me."

After saying that, Jiang Yan turned around and walked away. When he passed by the pile of treasures, he just swung his body and put all the things into the storage bag. His movements were graceful and smooth, as if he had practiced them countless times.

Then he slammed the door shut, leaving Shen Ming alone who hadn't yet reacted.

"This……"

"Master, are you...recovering in seclusion? No, no, no, Master, you didn't take the initiative to recover last time when you consumed so much energy. Instead, you let your body recover slowly on its own. You were too lazy to refine your spiritual energy..."

"So this time of retreat is... secretly counting treasures by yourself and laughing foolishly? Although it seems like something Master would do, it is definitely not the main reason."

'Then there is only one last possibility... Master wants to be alone and quiet, wants to get rid of Shen Ming by retreating, and then secretly count the treasures by himself and still be quiet?'

Thinking of this, Shen Ming stared at the closed door with a dim gaze.

"Is it because Shen Ming has been too obedient recently, so Master feels that he can relax slowly~"

"Since Master wants to be alone and quiet, Shen Ming will not let you be quiet. He will bother you and stay by your side forever."

…………

In the retreat room, Jiang Yan was lying on the sofa in a posture of a certain Uncle Ge, with the new soap opera romance from the Ancient Immortal Sect playing in front of him. He was holding a bucket of fruit snacks in his arms, eating while watching, and occasionally taking a sip from the wine jug. His life was so comfortable.

The decoration style of this retreat room is very different from the common secret rooms in this world of immortal cultivation. Many things are made by Jiang Yan himself, and are exclusive to them and not shared by outsiders.

At this moment, he was counting the precious materials he had just cheated from Shen Ming.

"Tsk tsk tsk~ I'm rich! I'm rich! There are so many good things, it's worth my three days of talking about them~"

"The essence of the five elements is enough for Ming'er to practice to the peak of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation. The magic weapon Shui Lingsha is not bad. It can be used for group AOE large-scale damage. And this four-sided vine~ Tsk tsk, Sect Leader Fan is really willing to spend. He actually sent me one of the only ones left in the sect."

"But this thing is for enhancing talent, it won't have much effect on Ming'er, after all my apprentice is naturally beautiful~"

Jiang Yan casually threw the vine into the corner and let it gather dust.

Afterwards, Jiang Yan picked and chose and selected most of the precious materials, and finally only two were left.

A flower seed, a dead branch.

"The seeds of the Three Lives and Three Dreams flower, the broken branches of the ancient wind and thunder tree~"

Jiang Yan carefully put the flower seed away.

Jiang Yan didn't have a deep understanding of the Three Lives and Three Dreams Flower. He only knew that it was the Lingyun Sect's treasure and that it had miraculous effects when it bloomed. He didn't know the specifics, but according to rumors from the outside world, it was the kind that even immortals yearned for.

Jiang Yan didn’t understand what happened after that.

Because this flower has not been seen in the world for a long time, rumors spread that this thing is not worthy of its name and is just a gimmick released by Lingyun Sect to the outside world. Even Lingyun Sect itself thinks so.

Because no one has ever seen the flower bloom since then, and the seeds have never sprouted and bloomed.

From generation to generation, this generation does not attach so much importance to it.

But after all, it is the inheritance of Lingyun Sect, and they will not give it to him easily.

"Lingyun Sect, just for the title of number one, is it necessary to fight so hard?"

Jiang Yan sighed lightly, picked up the remaining branch of the ancient wind and thunder tree, and nodded slightly.

"Yes, it still has a trace of spirituality. If we find it, we can repair it. We should be able to try to revive it~"

Jiang Yan rubbed his chin lightly and muttered to himself.

"In the future, I can make a magic whip for Ming'er to exorcise evil spirits and bind demons. Hmm~ Not bad, not bad. There is a promising future~"

Thinking about these things in his mind, Jiang Yan lay back in a bold posture.

"It feels so good~ Sometimes we still need to separate for a while, so both sides will feel better~ Especially me~ It feels so good without any accessories~"

"Eh? Why does it sound so awkward? It feels like... being in love? Emmm, forget it. There's a saying in the previous life that a daughter is a lover in the previous life~"

Jiang Yan shook his head and smiled, then closed his eyes comfortably~
