C2135 The Divine Runic Master Wanted to Abdicate too Much
"Yes." Grand Nun Jing Wen nodded and said, "Yao Er, I want to pass the position of building owner of Still Water House to you now."
"Ah?" Meng Yaoer, who had just sat down, heard what her master said. She immediately stood up and looked at Grand Nun Jing Wen in shock. "Master, why? You are at the peak of Spring and Autumn. You will be able to be building owner for another few decades. Why did you pass it on to me? Could it be that my disciple's previous actions caused Master to misunderstand? Listen to your disciple's explanation. At that time, your master was not around... It was only because of this that I temporarily took care of the sect. It was not to spy on building owner's position. Master, please don't misunderstand. "
Meng Yaoer explained very anxiously.
In fact, after seeing Grand Nun Jing Wen's safe return, Meng Yaoer had been thinking about a problem. That was, she would choose to continue staying in the Still Water House and inherit building owner's position in the future. She would still choose to follow Huang Feng like Su Yumo and the others.
This was a dilemma, choosing to stay in the Still Water House. If nothing unexpected happened, she would become building owner in the future. Once she became the building owner of the Still Water House, she wouldn't be able to find a partner for herself. This was the consensus of the Still Water House.
However, it was indeed very difficult for Meng Yaoer to forget about Huang Feng. During the three years that they had been separated from each other, although Meng Yaoer had been forcing herself to do so, she wanted to put all of her energy into cultivation. But... Whenever it was late at night, she couldn't help but think of Huang Feng. She wanted to see him more than once.
However, at that time, Huang Feng had already gone out for a stroll. No one knew exactly where he was, and no one in the Huaxia Sword Sect knew. She didn't know either, so even if she missed him dearly... She had no choice but to hold it in.
This time, she saw Huang Feng again, especially after she was saved by him once again. Meng Yaoer's feelings towards Huang Feng became even deeper. In these three years, not only did she not wear down her feelings for Huang Feng, but it also became deeper and deeper. When she saw Huang Feng again, she almost couldn't control herself and took the initiative to confess.
However, even if she hadn't confessed, her attitude towards Huang Feng could be seen by anyone with discerning eyes.
However, because of her own identity, Meng Yaoer didn't dare to take another step forward. At that time, Grand Nun Jing Wen had disappeared again, and she didn't dare to think about these things. She could only bear the responsibility.
When she saw Grand Nun Jing Wen appear again, Meng Yaoer was really very happy. On one hand, it was because her master was fine, and it was not that she did not feel relieved deep in her heart. She felt that she might have a chance when her master came back. To get rid of him... The current predicament.
However, what Meng Yaoer did not expect was that her master... He actually wanted to pass on the position of building owner to her right now. This was something that Meng Yaoer had never thought of before. She instinctively wanted to reject it. Not only because of Huang Feng, but also because she was not ready yet. This news was too sudden for her.
Even though it was from the Still Water House, and even from the other sects in the Cultivation Realm... Meng Yaoer would become the building owner of the Still Water House in the future. However, that was also the future, not the present. If something really happened to Grand Nun Jing Wen in Demon Realm, Meng Yaoer would become the building owner of Still Water House. It was only logical.
However, Grand Nun Jing Wen had already returned. To Meng Yaoer and many others, the building owner of Still Water House would still belong to Grand Nun Jing Wen. Furthermore... Grand Nun Jing Wen wasn't too old yet, plus... Her Cultivation Level wasn't low, so her lifespan naturally wouldn't be low either. Just like Meng Yaoer had said, he would be building owner for another few decades. It would not be a problem.
Because of this, when he heard what his master said, Meng Yaoer was very shocked in her heart. She was not prepared at all. Furthermore, she had been thinking about it all this while. How to solve the problem of his identity and the matter between him and Huang Feng... That made her even more reluctant to accept building owner's position.
Regarding her master's sudden decision, Meng Yaoer felt that... Was it because her master had misunderstood her previous actions? After all, during that period of time, she had taken the initiative to stand out. She felt that it wasn't her own behavior to become the temporary building owner of Still Water House. She had misunderstood her master and made her feel that she had become building owner. It was an urgent matter.
Grand Nun Jing Wen smiled and gestured for his disciple to sit down. He then said, "Master didn't misunderstand. I know you didn't have that thought before. In fact, at that time, she made the right choice. You were the next building owner of Still Water House. When I wasn't around... You should have taken the initiative to step forward and take responsibility for your actions."
Meng Yaoer heaved a sigh of relief when she heard her master's words. It was good that her master did not misunderstand her. However... And then... She frowned again and asked doubtfully, "Then, Master, why are you doing this? Why did you suddenly do that? Disciple really doesn't understand"
" Because, Master's body is no longer the same as before. " Grand Nun Jing Wen said with a calm expression, "Actually, my injuries this time are much more serious than what you have seen."
"What's going on? Master, is your master alright?" Meng Yaoer asked with concern.
Grand Nun Jing Wen smiled and said, "He won't die anytime soon, but he was seriously injured before. After I found out that you guys came, I also wanted to meet up with you guys as soon as possible. So, I'm in a hurry to recover. This has caused some harm to my body. In addition to the hidden injuries left behind by my previous injuries, my master's current condition... It's not very good. "
"But, Master, aren't you very well? There are no problems with your strength?" Meng Yaoer asked.
Indeed, from an outsider's point of view, Grand Nun Jing Wen was indeed very normal. When he first appeared, his performance was also very strong. His strength wasn't affected at all. He was afraid that no one would be able to see him. No one would think that there was anything wrong with Grand Nun Jing Wen's body.
"That was because master forced himself to take a deep breath." Grand Nun Jing Wen said, "At that time, master also thought that Huang Feng was dead. Still Water House and Huaxia Sword Sect were in imminent danger. So, at that time, Master... Master..."
Indeed, at that time, Grand Nun Jing Wen had also seen that she had lost her composure very badly. If she were to appear extremely weak again... If that was the case, it would cause the morale of the Still Water House to drop drastically. It was a very dangerous thing to lose morale when facing a strong enemy.
"Master, it's all my fault. If it wasn't for my disciple..." Meng Yaoer felt guilty when she heard her master's words. If it wasn't for her decision to support the Huaxia Sword Sect... Then, her master wouldn't have to force himself to do that. Meng Yaoer felt that she had harmed her master.
However, Grand Nun Jing Wen waved his hand and said, "Silly disciple, you didn't do anything wrong. Even if I was there, I wouldn't have done anything wrong. Although our Still Water House is a woman, we will still make the same decision. But, they're all moral, reasonable people, what you did at that time wasn't wrong. Besides, even if Master didn't do it at that time... Master's body wouldn't be able to hold on for long, even if he wouldn't die now. However, the Cultivation Level would continue to fall. Therefore... That's why I will now pass the position of building owner to you. While I still have some prestige and strength, I'll help you keep it under control. "
She knew Grand Nun Jing Wen's body the best. Even if it wasn't for what happened before, even if she returned to the sect safely... Her Cultivation Level would have fainted because of the severe injuries she had suffered earlier. As for those that continued to fall, although they wouldn't die, they wouldn't become ordinary people either. However, compared to before, her strength was definitely much weaker. And once her strength declined, her spirit and energy would definitely decline as well. At that time, if she managed this huge Still Water House again... You'll feel powerless.
That was why Grand Nun Jing Wen felt that he still had some energy left. He could still help him suppress the situation and pass down the position of building owner first. When the time came, his Cultivation Level would become very low. He believed that Meng Yaoer had already stabilized her position in building owner's position.
Of course, Huang Feng and the Huaxia Sword Sect had won a great victory this time. As the firm ally of the Huaxia Sword Sect and Huang Feng, Meng Yaoer. I'm sure you'll get a lot of benefits. In the future, if anyone dared to do anything to Meng Yaoer... He would have to consider the attitude of Huang Feng and the Huaxia Sword Sect when it came to harming the Still Water House. This was also a great help to Sect Leader.
Although she understood the cause and effect of the matter, Meng Yaoer still didn't immediately agree to her master's request. Instead, she seemed hesitant.
After all, she had been troubled by the issue of her identity for a period of time. Now, she was actually going to become building owner. Once the matter was really settled... It would be impossible between her and Huang Feng. Therefore, Meng Yaoer didn't dare to agree easily.
After all, Grand Nun Jing Wen was an experienced man. She could tell at once. This disciple of hers didn't seem to be very willing to become building owner. This wasn't because Meng Yaoer was pretending to be humble, but because she really didn't want to accept this position from the bottom of her heart.
Recalling some of the rumors from before, Grand Nun Jing Wen sighed in his heart and said, "My good disciple, are you thinking about Huang Feng?"
"Ah?!" He had been thinking about Huang Feng all along, but now he heard his own master suddenly mention this name. Meng Yaoer was shocked and looked panicked. It was as if she had done something wrong and was found out.
Seeing Meng Yaoer's reaction, Grand Nun Jing Wen was even more sure of what he was thinking. She sighed again and a hesitant look appeared on her face.
