Chapter 8 - Once, You Abandoned Me and Fled
Chapter 8 : Once, You Abandoned Me and Fled
Yuling didn’t know who the Beidu Star Lord wanted her to thank. Thus, she continued watching the scene.
In the scene:
Mount Taihua, Qingyan Peak, everywhere you look is a land of ice and snow, the ground covered with three feet of thick ice. Ye Xuan, having just arrived here, does not feel the cold of the peak thanks to a cold-resisting charm placed on him by Elder Qingyan.
Although his master doesn’t pay much attention to him, he is not a harsh person; otherwise, he might have intentionally let Ye Xuan freeze and then made him beg to leave the mountain.
“Junior Brother, according to the sect rules, I should be the one to teach you the basics of cultivating immortality.” At this moment, Yuling stands in front of Ye Xuan, with an air of a little adult, and says, “From now on, you must obediently listen to me, or else, your Senior Sister might have to smack your hands, got it?!”
“Yes, Senior Sister, I will listen attentively.” At this time, Ye Xuan, looking at Yuling in front of him, already has eyes full of infatuation. Although he is just a young man and Yuling is older than him, cultivators do not consider age differences.
Truly falling in love, even if the woman is three hundred years older, moving mountains and filling seas are also possible. But Yuling, oblivious to her Junior Brother’s adoring gaze, has not yet realized what love is.
“Alright, very good, then let me first tell you about… the cultivation paths of the Taihua Sect.”
Yuling deliberately puts on an old and wise demeanor and begins:
“After our sect’s ancestor, Bixiazi, established the Taihua Sect, he passed down two basic immortal arts, one being the Taihua Art, and the other, the Taihua Sword Technique.”
“Later, led by the sect master Daoist Qin Zhenren, many masters joined under Bixiazi, pooling their wisdom and creating many wonderful techniques, yet they all adhere to the same principles…”
“Therefore, although the Taihua Sect is a major cultivation sect with numerous paths, it can generally be divided into two factions. One mainly focuses on spellcasting, and the other on swordsmanship.”
“My father, your master, is a disciple of Daoxing Zhenren, mainly focused on swordsmanship.
So, in the future, you can only learn swordsmanship. Of course, if you have the extra energy to practice other arts, you can.”
“However, one’s achievements in a lifetime are limited, and mastering one path to its end is already quite challenging. Unless one day you become an immortal with endless life, then learning other techniques won’t be too late.”
The pair, one speaking earnestly and the other listening intently, lost track of time.
Seeing the enthusiastic demeanor of herself in the scene, Yuling felt a pang of emotion. She remembered that at that time, she was just happy to finally have someone to teach and was very cheerful. It was the most innocent and happy time since she became sensible. At that time, she thought of Ye Xuan as a fool who only listened but never asked a question or two.
Hmph—!
She was a bit angry at Ye Xuan for not speaking.
But now it seems, Ye Xuan might have already fallen in love with her at that time. Being loved by such a scoundrel, having him look at her every day like that, just thinking about it makes one feel sick.
Previously, the Beidu Star Lord seemed to say that he truly loved her and shouldn’t be treated like that by her? Heh, it’s true he loved her, but his nature is evil and heinous, she was too kind to him.
Even if someone truly loves another, it’s not an excuse for their evil deeds. Thinking this, Yuling looked at Ye Xuan in the scene with an even deeper hatred.
“Alright, Junior Brother, that’s enough for today.”
After finishing the lesson, Yuling said to Ye Xuan:
“Did you remember what I taught?”
“Uh…”
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but show an embarrassed expression. He remembered the part about the setting that was explained earlier, but he completely didn’t understand the part about cultivation.
What is spiritual power, what are acupuncture points, what are star signs? Do these things really exist in this world? Anyway, he couldn’t feel any of it. But at this moment, Yuling didn’t notice his embarrassment.
Yuling, watching the scene, showed a hint of vengeful pleasure on her face. Although she couldn’t bring herself to torture someone intentionally, she was still happy to see Ye Xuan embarrassed.
Time quickly passed by half a year. During this time, Yuling taught Ye Xuan the basics of cultivating immortality every day. Although Ye Xuan had no spiritual root, he was grasping the cultivation knowledge rapidly. Even though he had no sense of drawing Qi into his body, he was no longer a mundane person who knew nothing about cultivation as he was at the beginning.
Moreover, this period was his happiest time. Every day, he could be with his Senior Sister Yuling, watching her cute demeanor of acting like an adult despite being very young. He wished time could stop at this moment.
Seeing Ye Xuan’s genuine fondness for her in the scene, Yuling felt disgusted. She used to think this was the happiest and most carefree time of her life. But now, thinking back, she only wanted to vomit. She wondered what the Beidu Star Lord’s intention was for showing her all this.
That day, early in the morning, Yuling came to Ye Xuan’s door and knocked. “Junior Brother, get up quickly, today I will take you up the mountain to practice swordsmanship.”
“Okay, Senior Sister, I’m already up.”
Soon, sounds came from the room, and Ye Xuan, dressed neatly, opened the door.
Yuling said to Ye Xuan, “Come, Junior Brother, I’ll take you to an interesting place.”
“Okay.” Ye Xuan obediently nodded.
Thus, Yuling took Ye Xuan on a sword flight to a very quiet place on Qingyan Peak. Amidst the icy landscape, many ice and snow spiritual plants emerged from the ice cracks, forming a stunningly beautiful ice scenery.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful—!” Seeing the scene before her, Yuling happily jumped up, dancing joyfully among the ice and snow like a child.
Although Ye Xuan hadn’t yet drawn the Qi into his body, he had adapted to the coldness of the mountains. Moreover, even if he was freezing, he wasn’t afraid; as long as he could keep watching his Senior Sister, he was willing to endure anything, even death.
“Hehe, even willing to die?” Watching this scene and hearing Ye Xuan’s thoughts in the scene, Yuling laughed:
“Ye Xuan, before this naive me might have believed your nonsense, but it was here that you did something that disgusted me for a lifetime.”
Yuling still remembered that time when she was guiding Ye Xuan in sword practice on the mountain. But unexpectedly, a demonic beast escaped from somewhere. In order to protect Ye Xuan, she fought desperately. However, when she was injured and couldn’t hold on anymore, Ye Xuan abandoned her and fled alone…
“Indeed, the original villain did run away. He was afraid of death and abandoned you.” The real Ye Xuan, holding the script, watched Yuling’s reactions and smiled, “Don’t worry, this time, I definitely won’t run. Not only will I not run, but I will also desperately save you. I’m the screenwriter, what I do in the script is up to me.”
