"This…this is a little too hasty!”Jiang Yuntian said fearfully," Master! Yating is so outstanding, I'm afraid I'm not worthy of her.”As he spoke, his face suddenly turned red.
"Good child, don't decline…This is my decision, and I believe in my own judgment. I will betroth Yating to you, and you must take good care of her in the future. This is also the only request that master has for you. "Come, quickly take it…" As Mu Yunshen spoke, he handed the jade pendant back to Jiang Yuntian.
" Master... I..." Jiang Yuntian thought for a moment and raised his hand to take the small jade pendant from the old man. The jade pendant felt like it weighed a thousand pounds in his hand, and his mood suddenly became much heavier.
Seeing Jiang Yuntian solemnly take the jade pendant, Mu Yunshen nodded his head in satisfaction and said,"Yating has been pampered too much since she was young. She is like a wild horse that has lost its reins…willful, proud…but her nature is pure and kind.”
Just as he said this, he coughed a few more times and finally spat out a large mouthful of blood.
When Jiang Yuntian saw this, he could not help but be shocked."Master, blood?"
Mu Yunshen acted as if he didn't hear what he said and continued,""So, after you find Yating, when you interact with her, you must be extremely patient with her, just like…just like how you treated your beloved horse, Dark Stallion. However, you must remember one thing. You can endure everything, but you must have your own bottom line. The bottom line is that you must not lose the personality and dignity that a real man should have. Otherwise, you won't be able to control her…"
Suddenly, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and could no longer help. His pale face convulsed violently, and his eyes suddenly widened. His entire eyeballs rolled up uncontrollably.
" I…after I die…after I die…" Mu Yunshen felt as if something had suddenly been stuffed into his throat. Although he had exhausted all his strength, he could not utter the last word.
His two pale hands had already grabbed Jiang Yuntian's arm. He panted for a while, as if he had used all his strength, and said intermittently," Remember, after I…die, please…please…"
Suddenly, Jiang Yuntian felt that there was no longer any strength in his master's hands. Just as he was shocked, Mu Yunshen's entire body had already tilted to the side and fell softly.
Jiang Yuntian hurriedly called out to his master and turned Mu Yunshen's body over. However, he found that two jade tendons as thick as a pinky finger had already extended from under the old man's nose. His body had also become stiff.
"Where's the Heavens!" Jiang Yuntian shouted in a trembling voice. It was as if a thunderbolt had suddenly sounded above his head. He was instantly shocked and stunned on the spot.
Mu Yunshen's corpse was bent sideways. Jiang Yuntian spent a lot of effort to straighten the old man's corpse.
Jiang Yuntian was unable to resolve his emotions for a moment after receiving this sudden blow. His heart felt as heavy as a large stone, as if it had been sealed by ice.
For a long time after that, Jiang Yuntian stared at the corpse of his teacher, Mu Yunshen, in a daze. His mind went blank. He thought too much, but it was as if he had no thoughts at all.
After a chaotic and numb feeling, Jiang Yuntian slowly regained his original rationality and regained his usual calmness. He remembered the words his master, Mu Yunshen, said before he died,"" After I die, ten million…ten million…" What was 'ten million' exactly? This was indeed very puzzling to him, and it was difficult for him to imagine what happened next.
What did his teacher, Mu Yunshen, mean?”Or," Please don't send me back to my hometown?”Or did it mean something else?
The only information he knew was: Firstly, his master lived in Fufeng Town's Cloud Dragon Villa at the foot of the Azure Dragon Ridge. Secondly, his master only had one precious daughter, Mu Yating. Lastly, his master had two disciples in his early years. They were very talented in martial arts, but their personal character was too bad.
From the introduction of his daughter by his teacher, it could be seen that he loved his only daughter very much. Perhaps it was because he loved her too much that he developed his daughter's pride and willfulness. Therefore, he deeply hoped that someone could replace him to discipline and restrain this precious daughter who had always been arrogant and willful. It was best if this person was his daughter's husband.
Now, this extremely difficult task had fallen on Jiang Yuntian's shoulders. As for the two disciples that his master, Mu Yunshen, had taken in a long time ago, although the old man did not make it very clear, Jiang Yuntian could keenly sense that the old man was deeply dissatisfied with his two senior brothers. That was why he did not teach them the essence of the Mu family's martial arts, the Eleven Words True Formula.
All of this made Jiang Yuntian secretly feel that the completely unfamiliar environment that he was about to face was not simple. However, his teacher's kindness was as great as a mountain. He knew that there would be countless difficulties ahead, but he had no reason to retreat. He quickly decided that he would first transport his teacher's body back to Cloud Dragon Villa in Fufeng Town.
After making up his mind, he picked up the old man's cold and stiff corpse and strode out of the stone forest.
At this moment, he felt extremely pained. He also felt extremely guilty about his master's corpse in his arms. In fact, his master should have been able to live for a few more hours, but he was in a hurry to teach Jiang Yuntian martial arts secret techniques and true spells. He had spent a lot of his true essence and energy, so much so that he had exhausted his last bit of energy and died.
If one thought about it carefully, it was not difficult to imagine how graceful and unrestrained his teacher, Mu Yunshen, was when he was alive. He was simply a living immortal figure whose head and tail could not be seen. Who would have thought that after the old man passed away, he would be so miserable and depressed!
When he was carefully sorting out his master's corpse, Jiang Yuntian discovered that there was a light yellow silk bag inside the old man's clothes. Inside the bag was a manuscript that recorded 'The New Chapter of the Yue Maiden's Study of the Profound Mysteries of the Sword Technique'. Beside the manuscript, there were words written in small letters like' A present for my beloved daughter Mu Yating's 21st birthday'.
Just by looking at these few simple words, one could sense the strong father-daughter relationship between their teacher and daughter. In an instant, Jiang Yuntian felt his eyes turn moist, and he almost couldn't bear to look anymore.
The manuscript was a thick stack of handwritten copies. The handwriting on it was not only clear and neat, but also vigorous and powerful. Judging by the thickness of the manuscript, it was about a hundred pages. Because his master had never talked about the handling of this matter before his death, Jiang Yuntian could not read it privately.
In addition, there was a string of black and white jade beads in the old man's arms. Each bead was as big as a cherry, and it seemed that a few of them were missing. There were many exquisite patterns carved on the beads, and next to the string of beads was a flat red sandalwood box.
Inside the box was a crystal clear jade camel. The lid of the box was square, and the green light reflected on Jiang Yuntian's face, making him feel cold.
Although he was a layman when it came to jewelry and jade, how could he not know about the jade carving in front of him?
Even if Jiang Yuntian didn't know anything about jade, he could guess that this Green Jade Camel was definitely a rare treasure that was priceless. Thinking of this, he closed the lid of the box and quickly wrapped it in a silk bag again. He followed suit and carried it with him.
These things in the silk bag were obviously due to the negligence of the old master and did not think of how to deal with it, or because he did not have time to take care of this matter, he died first. No matter what, Jiang Yuntian would never have any improper thoughts about these things. He was determined to personally hand these things to his master's beloved daughter, Mu Yating.
The radiant sun was already hanging high in the sky, and the sunlight had driven away the chill that had enveloped the grasslands earlier. On the bank of the clear stream that was winding like a dragon and snake, Jiang Yuntian's beloved horse, Dusk Stallion, was lowering its head and munching on the fat weeds on the ground.
Jiang Yuntian hugged his master's corpse tiredly and struggled to get on his horse. He identified the direction slightly and then rode away.
