Li Tutian felt like an immortal had descended to the earth and he stared blankly in disbelief.

However, compared to Li Tutian's shock, Li Yingqi was much calmer.

This desert is not something that ordinary people can enter. It was originally a trial ground for the Kunlun Sect. Li Yingqi came here only because her master was in seclusion in Kunlun for a breakthrough, and she had nothing to do and was just walking around. But today, she happened to see this ordinary mortal who encountered a lone wolf.

Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Although Li Yingqi knew that the man in front of him was full of strength and would not die in the mouth of this lone wolf, the kindness in his heart made Li Yingqi unwilling to take the gamble.

goo go go go...

Li Tutian was completely dumbfounded. He just looked at Li Yingqi in front of him quietly. Every frown and movement of Li Yingqi made Li Tutian feel particularly familiar.

It was as if he had seen the woman in front of him before.

At this moment, being stared at by a strange man, Li Yingqi frowned, but he did not show too much displeasure. The man's eyes did not reveal any blasphemous intent, but rather, it seemed like he was meeting an old friend after a long separation.

"you……"

Li Tutian wanted to talk but stopped himself. He finally understood why he had a familiar feeling. The female fairy in front of him seemed like his sister.

"Are you Ajie?"

Finally, even though Li Tutian had already controlled his emotions, he still found it difficult to hold back at this moment. Past memories flooded into his mind, and the figure in front of him became more and more familiar, making him feel more and more at ease.

When Li Yingqi heard the word "sister", it was like a bolt from the blue, and the dusty memories in his mind began to revive.

She does have a younger brother...

However, when Li Yingqi was six years old, after both his parents passed away, his five-year-old brother was abducted by someone with bad intentions in the village.

After these years of experiences, Li Yingqi has forgotten everything in the past, but the appearance of Li Tutian is like a sharp sword that suddenly pierces Li Yingqi's heart.

Taking a deep breath, Li Yingqi tried his best to look calm, but a huge wave of emotions was already rising in his heart.

"You...are Ah Tu?"

"Sister, it's me!"

Li Tutian also cried with joy. The suffering he had endured over the years was no less than that of Li Yingqi.

Since being kidnapped, Li Tutian was sent to a family that could not have children. Originally, Li Tutian thought that he would live a bleak life, but he never expected that as he grew older, his appetite became bigger and bigger. Ten years ago, his adoptive parents could no longer afford to feed him, so they kicked him out of the house and left him to wander.

During the past ten years, Li Tutian had been hungry and cold, and now he had no idea why he had come to this desolate place. If he had not met his elder sister today, Li Tutian really doubted whether he could leave alive.

Of course, I am lucky to meet my sister.

Li Yingqi was now certain that the boy in front of him was his younger brother. Although he still looked calm on the surface, tears began to fill his eyes...

The two were staring at each other. They hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and when they met again, everything had changed. Both sides were wary, and even though they could confirm their identities, they didn't make any big moves.

Finally, it was Li Yingqi who broke the silence.

"Brother, why did you come to this desert? This is the trial place of Kunlun Sect. If you are not careful, you will be eaten by demons. If you hadn't met me today, I'm afraid..."

As he spoke, Li Yingqi's eyes became colder!

The trial ground of a sect is impossible for ordinary people to enter, let alone being covered by formations. Even if there are no formations covering the trial ground, ordinary people will definitely not be allowed to enter at will.

It is obvious that there must be something fishy on Kunlun’s part in this matter!
Hearing this, Li Tutian chuckled.

"Sister, I don't know how I ended up in this desert. I was clearly in a county town before I woke up, but after I woke up, I was in this desert.

But don't worry, sister. My brother is very strong now. Being a lone wolf like this is not a problem for him at all!
From now on, I will definitely protect my sister and never be separated from her again..."

"Pfft!"

Li Tutian's words also made Li Yingqi, who had originally had a cold expression, smile instantly.

His younger brother didn't seem to have changed much since he was a child, but they were completely different from each other. One was strong and powerful, with a strong body that even Li Yingqi was amazed at. The other became a disciple of Maoshan and the first disciple to be taught directly. His future was also limitless.

Their fate had long since changed, and now that they met again, Li Yingqi also secretly vowed in his heart that he would protect his brother's safety in the future.

"Okay, okay, Brother Tu is ambitious, but I don't need you to protect me now."

......................................................

Kunlun.

When Shi Jian left the back mountain of Kunlun, he began to look for Li Yingqi. He first released his spiritual sense to search, but did not find any trace of his disciple. Helplessly, Shi Jian could only ask Gu Yue.

When Shi Jian learned that his beloved disciple went to the Kunlun trial site because of boredom, he felt relieved. He tore the void in front of him with his big hand, and a space tunnel suddenly appeared!

A powerful person who has reached the state of spiritual transformation can cross the void, that’s all.

"Sister, so I met a good master. When I meet your master, I will definitely thank this immortal. If it weren't for this immortal who saved you, I wouldn't be able to see you today."

Li Yingqi smiled and was about to say something, but in an instant, Li Yingqi's smile stopped. She stared at the void in front of her. At this moment, even Li Tutian noticed that his sister was abnormal.

"Sister, I will protect you!"

As he spoke, Li Tutian stood in front of Li Yingqi and opened his arms. He didn't care that his face was still pale, his whole body was weak, his eyes were bloodshot and trembling, and the muscles in his arms were as hard as steel, staring straight ahead.

With a crackling sound, the void in front of him shattered directly, and a figure slowly walked out of the void.

"Boy, you are very good!"

As a majestic voice was transmitted, the surrounding world became mysterious.

The moment she saw the person coming, Li Yingqi smiled. Her sweet smile made Li Tutian frown. He thought his sister had completely given up struggling.

"Disciple Li Yingqi greets Master!"

It was not until his sister bowed behind him that Li Tutian lowered his arms in great embarrassment. It turned out that the mysterious man in front of him was his sister's master, the immortal from Maoshan?

"Ahem, little brother, why don't you meet my sister's master?"

Li Yingqi was also a little embarrassed. His brother, whom he had finally reunited with, seemed a little silly. "I am Li Tutian, hello... hello to the immortal!"

Li Tutian didn't know what to call himself, but it would always be right to call him an immortal.

Shi Jian just looked at the brother and sister in front of him quietly. He didn't expect that Li Yingqi had a younger brother alive in the world, and he didn't expect that the brother and sister would meet again one day.

With a faint smile, Shi Jian nodded and said, "You are smart, but you are not a disciple of Maoshan, so there is no need to be polite."

Shi Jian looked at Li Tutian, truly sizing him up. The outlined muscle lines looked pleasing to the eye, but this mortal body could actually possess a strength of thousands of pounds. Shi Jian believed that he was born with supernatural powers when he was a child, but Li Tutian in front of him didn't seem weak either.

Seeing his master staring at his brother with great interest, Li Yingqi was also a little confused.

But thinking that his master would not harm his brother, Li Yingqi simply kept silent and waited quietly for his master to deal with it.

"Boy, are you willing to become my disciple?"

Shi Jian's words came out of nowhere, and even Li Yingqi, who wanted to remain calm, was stunned. He looked at his master with an incredible expression.

If Li Yingqi did not understand what it meant to become a disciple of his master in the past, now after these years of experience, Li Yingqi has understood that becoming a disciple of Maoshan is equivalent to having a good backer and can live in the world with peace of mind.

To become a disciple of one's own master is like having the backing of a towering tree; it is no exaggeration to say that one can act with impunity.

That's why Li Yingqi was so surprised.

However, Li Tutian's reaction to this sentence was different. He didn't know what it meant to become his sister's master before becoming his disciple. However, one thing was that if he could stay with his sister by becoming his disciple, he was really willing to become his disciple.

"My god, after I become your disciple, can I follow my sister?"

Li Tutian still couldn't help but ask what was in his mind. Shi Jian was not angry when he heard it. On the contrary, the character of Li Tutian in front of him really made Shi Jian like him a little more.

If he had extended the olive branch just now so that his beloved disciple would not have to worry about anything and could practice in peace, now he really felt that accepting Li Tutian as his disciple was a good decision.

"oh?

If I tell you that you can’t stay with your elder sister after you become my disciple, are you still willing?”

"Boy...boy...I don't want to!"

Li Tutian stuttered a little. He was not really stupid. If he said he didn't want to, he would definitely offend the immortal in front of him. But if he couldn't follow his sister, what was the point of him becoming her apprentice?

"Hahaha, you are a wonderful person. So many people begged and rushed to become my disciple, but you refused flatly because you couldn't follow your elder sister. You are very good. Don't worry, as long as you become my disciple, you can follow your elder sister in the future. On the contrary, as a mortal, even if I don't stop your elder sister from seeing you, after a hundred years, your elder sister will still be glorious, but you will turn into yellow earth. After all, it is not a long-term solution.

I have explained it so clearly, do you understand?"

"You little brat, what are you hesitating about!"

Li Yingqi couldn't stand it anymore and gave Li Tutian a slap on the head.

"Oh, sister..."

"Ahem, why don't you kneel down and become my disciple? I'm telling you, this opportunity is rare. You'll understand from now on."

With a plop, as expected, Li Tutian really listened to Li Yingqi's words and knelt down directly, performing the great ceremony of three bows and nine kowtows to Shi Jian.

Shi Jian didn't care. He smiled at the scene in front of him. Seeing the deep love between the siblings, his thoughts were pulled back to decades ago...

At that time, I also had such family affection, but things and people have changed. Once I embarked on the path of cultivation, I could only go all the way to the end.

"Disciple Li Tutian, please accept me as your disciple!"

After three bows and nine kowtows, Li Tutian also respectfully asked for help. Shi Jian pulled his thoughts back and nodded.

"good!"

As Shi Jian waved his hand, Li Tutian was pulled up by an invisible force.

"From now on, you will be my second disciple, and I will treat you as my nominal disciple. If you can satisfy me in the future, I will transfer you to be my personal disciple."

"Disciple, please obey your master's orders!"

It was expected that Li Yingqi would be accepted as a registered disciple first. His younger brother's talent was not yet apparent, so it was not appropriate to accept him as a direct disciple. Even if he returned to Maoshan and the elders of the Nine Palaces did not say anything, and the elders of the Patriarch Hall did not say anything, after all, he was not in the right position and did not have the corresponding strength. He would not last long, and would not be respected!
"Okay, now you and your sister can rest assured. This place is so desolate and desolate. I really don't know what you and your sister are up to..."

Shi Jian also looked around at this moment. Not only was there no one living within a hundred miles, there were not even a few living creatures.

Hearing this, Li Yingqi also began to speak out his true feelings, pouring out all his thoughts and ideas.

"what?
Yingqi, are you saying that Tu Tian was brought here by Kunlun disciples to die?
The trial ground seems to be really like this..."

Only after listening to what Li Yingqi said did Shi Jian frown. He originally thought that the meeting of the brother and sister was a coincidence, but now it seems that behind the coincidence there was also the unintentional contribution of others.

"Master knows about this. Although Maoshan has no right to interfere with Kunlun's actions, Tu Tian is still your disciple and your younger brother. Kunlun needs to give us an explanation for this matter!"

In an instant, Shi Jian's eyes flashed, and his cold look made the world seem particularly depressing.

Hearing this, Li Yingqi nodded. Since her master had spoken, she didn't need to say anything more. There were some things that she didn't have the right to speak on at the moment.

.........................................................

In the Kunlun Sect's main hall, when Yuxuzi heard Shi Jian's account of everything about the desert and Li Tutian's situation, Yuxuzi's expression instantly became solemn.

That desert is more than just a trial ground for Kunlun. As for the secrets hidden in it, only Yuxuzi himself knows it.

After informing Shi Jian that he would deal with it seriously, the matter had to be left unresolved. There was no other way. Shi Jian could not investigate it personally, let alone interfere in other people's affairs. This matter had to be left to Kunlun to handle himself.

Of course, no matter how the result will affect Shi Jian's future attention to Kunlun, if Yuxuzi is not stupid, he will give an answer that will satisfy Shi Jian.

Time passed quickly, and seven days later, Shi Jian took Li Yingqi and Li Tutian away from Kunlun and returned directly to Maoshan.

During these seven days, Kunlun also severely dealt with a disciple stationed in the county city, as a way of giving Shi Jian an explanation.
