His Rui

Chapter 624 Mi Luan Asks Master Wong To Leave

　　The shadow guards who were making arrangements for morning's breakfast whenever passed by him and said something in a playful manner, however, every time Master Wong ignored them thought he was very furious inside his heart.

　　To him, they were merely clowns the same as they thought about him. He just wanted to take his little disciple back with him.

　　Master Wong's patience and wait finally bore fruit when he saw his little disciple stepping out of the tent. He ignored who held his little disciple's hand.

　　The jealousy was pouring inside his heart. No one knew that he had always wanted to treat his little disciple as his grandchild.

　　In fact, he wanted to become his godfather. However, his little disciple's calm and indifferent behavior would always stop him from doing so. Sometimes, he felt that his little disciple was much more sensible and mature than his age so he would also have to behave in the same manner so that he would not be looked down upon by him.

　　It was after all, not easy to get a disciple as he had.

　　Master Wong decided to talk to his disciple right now. He didn't want to miss even a single opportunity. What if he made his little disciple agree to leave by some chance…so he couldn't stop his efforts.

　　"Shifu"

　　Mi Luan first reached Master Wong and greeted him respectfully.

　　He was very young and doing all these actions that normally adults did, he looked very cute. Gu Li's eyes were filled with amusement as he watched him greeting his 'shifu'.

　　Master Wong smiled gently and patted Mi Luan's small head.

　　"Did Little Luan sleep well?"

　　He was worried about his little disciple since he got to know that he had just recovered from the fever.

　　"Yes, Shifu."

　　Mi Luan answer made Master Wong heave a sigh of relief. He finally decided to talk about what he had wanted to for a long time. However, he had just opened his mouth when Gu Li suddenly dragged Mi Luan away with him saying that both of them need to go and do their morning routines.

　　Master Wong's eyes were wide with shock as he saw Gu Li disappearing inside the dense forest with his little disciple.

　　Sleeping was fine…but his little disciple …how would he be able to relieve himself in open …that too, when Gu Li was with him.

　　Panicked and afraid for his little disciple, Master Wong decided to follow Gu Li. However, he couldn't find Gu Li anywhere as the latter had already escaped from his sight.

　　As a result, Master Wong lost himself in the dense forest unable to find Gu Li anywhere.

　　Almost a shichen later when he finally found the place where the tents were standing, he saw that the place was completely vacant. All the tents were vacant except for one.   

　　"Master Wong should have his meal."

　　The old master told Master Wong who asked immediately

　　"Where is Little Luan?" 

　　"He has gone with Gu Li and others to train."

　　The old master replied calmly but Master Wong looked as if his whole purpose for living has been snatched away from him.

　　Still, regaining some hope in his eyes, he asked the old master

　　"Where do they train?"

　　"The place is not fixed."

　　The answer destroyed all his hopes. He didn't believe the old master completely. He felt as if he was being lied but he didn't have any way to make sure of that so he could only leave the old master's tent with a resentment-filled heart.

　　As he imagined his little disciple carrying a sword in his small hands…no those precious small hands…Master Wong's heart was filled with anger and pain.

　　What should he do?

　　Oh god…guide me so that I can save my little Ru…ehem Little Luan from these ruthless and manipulating people!

　　.

　　.

　　.

　　It was when the sun was around to set that MMi Luan returned to the tents with Gu Li.

　　Master Wong immediately ran towards him and hold him while checking here and there whether he was alright.

　　"I am alright, Shifu."

　　Mi Luan told his master calmly.

　　However, Master Wong's eyes went teary when he saw his little disciple's hands that were completely red. He asked him what he did. However, Mi Luan didn't dare to tell him.

　　Seeing that he already looked so sorrowful, he was worried that if he told him then he would start to cry. 

　　Today, he pulled heavy stuff to increase his arm's strength. Though he was feeling very tired, he wanted to continue doing it so that he would become a little strong at least strong enough that Gu Li would find him capable enough to teach him how to fight with a sword.

　　Though Mi Luan tried his best to comfort Master Wong, he remained unsuccessful in his attempts. Standing beside them, Gu Li who was watching this scene was feeling very annoyed. He didn't want Mi Luan to stay weak. Though he also felt distressed whenever he would see him working hard but Gu Li wanted him to be capable enough to face the enemies like the man who had attacked him a few days ago. 

　　He was afraid that Mi Luan's so-called shifu would try to stop him from learning so he dragged Mi Luan away from here saying that they needed to eat something.

　　However, he walked inside his master's tent with Mi Luan and only came out when the dinner was ready.

　　Whenever Master Wong tried to find an opportunity to talk with Mi Luan, Gu Li would swiftly take Mi Luan away with some logical excuse, however, Master Wong understood very clearly what he was trying to do.

　　His chest was filled with anger.

　　It was only at night that Master Wong finally get a chance to talk with Mi Luan when Gu Li was called by his master inside his tent to talk about something …and alone.

　　"Little Luan…"

　　Master Wong called him by that name as he looked at the shadow guards who were looking at them warily as if they were afraid that he would take away Mi Luan with him and run away.

　　"Shifu"

　　Mi Luan looked at his master calmly.

　　"Little Luan, we need to leave. You can't stay here for long, you know about that right?'

　　Mi Luan's face was solemn as he looked at his master. He knew that what his master was saying was right but he wanted to stay. This kind of opportunity…he would never get it again.

　　He was silent for a moment before he said 

　　"I had my father's permission to stay outside for two months. According to how many days are left, I am still left with forty-five days. I will stay here until then."
