Chapter 76

After resting, Yu Ling finally felt refreshed and went to Ye Xuan’s room early in the morning. Just as she arrived, she saw her senior brother, Yu Hao, standing there, smiling at her.

“Senior brother, good morning,” Yu Ling greeted him, then glanced towards Ye Xuan’s room and asked with a smile, “Senior brother, are you here to see Ye Xuan so early?”

Yu Hao replied with a helpless expression, “Junior sister, don’t joke. Master already said that I should teach the junior brother, Ye Xuan, about cultivation. You took him away yesterday, and Master has already scolded me for it!”

Yu Ling chided him, “Brother, you’re too naive. If you don’t say anything, and I don’t say anything, how would father know?”

“Okay, okay, you go about your business, I’ll take care of Ye Xuan’s cultivation,” she reassured him.

Hearing her words, Yu Hao desperately gestured to her with his eyes as if trying to convey a warning.

Confused, Yu Ling asked, “Senior brother, what’s wrong? Did you get sand in your eyes?”

Yu Hao sighed helplessly and said respectfully in her direction, “Good morning, Master.”

Startled, Yu Ling turned around and saw her father, Qingyan, looking at her sternly.

“Father... Good morning...” she greeted him, feeling somewhat guilty about what she had just said.

Qingyan, her father and also the sect elder, coldly huffed, clearly upset. He thought Ye Xuan was too shameless; not only was he not diligent in cultivation after joining the sect, but he also spent all his time with his daughter, even making her lie to him.

“Do you still know I’m your father?” he asked. “Didn’t I assign your senior brother to teach Ye Xuan cultivation? Why are you doing it instead? You even sent your senior brother away!”

“Father, senior brother doesn’t teach as well as I do,” Yu Ling tried to explain with a smile. “Let me teach Brother Ye Xuan.”

“Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan... You seem quite close to him,” Qingyan grumbled angrily. “Absolutely not, I see that instead of teaching him, you are likely to neglect your own cultivation. From today, you are forbidden to see Ye Xuan!”

“I don’t care, I want to teach Brotyer Ye Xuan, and if you disagree, I’ll ignore you,” Yu Ling stubbornly stated.

“You this...” Although Qingyan, the sect elder, wasn’t an arrogant person, he was quite petty. He wouldn’t look down on someone without spiritual roots, but he felt it was a waste for his disciple to lack them.

Already displeased with Ye Xuan, who was not diligent and seemed to be courting his daughter, Qingyan grew even more upset.

He firmly said, “Believe it or not, if you talk to Ye Xuan again, I’ll expel him from the sect!”

“Then expel him,” Yu Ling suddenly smiled mischievously. “There might be many people who want to accept Ye Xuan as a disciple now.”

Could it be that Ye Xuan, this guy, no way, right? Is he really that formidable? At this moment, Elder Qingyan’s face was filled with question marks.

He remembered that when Senior Sister Qingxue had joined Taihua Immortal Sect, she was already an immortal. Not only that, she possessed an unparalleled beauty, and numerous Taihua disciples pursued her.

Unfortunately, she was always indifferent to everyone. Even in any situation, she maintained a cold demeanor, and no one had ever seen her smile.

Such a person, would she really take a liking to Ye Xuan, a junior who had just joined the Taihua Immortal Sect and moreover, without spiritual roots?

Impossible, absolutely impossible—!!!

Yet, why would she emerge from Ye Xuan’s room and even say she wants to take him as her disciple?

“No need to think further,” Qingxue said to Elder Qingyan: “I don’t feel like explaining the details. It’s settled then, I’ll take Ye Xuan with me.”

As she spoke, Ye Xuan came out of the room. At this moment, Ye Xuan also wore a triumphant smile. After all, cough cough... those who know, understand.

Mo Qingxue, though not taking the initiative, was very cooperative with him.

“Uh...” Seeing Ye Xuan’s appearance, Yu Hao was completely stunned. He wore an expression of disbelief, almost suspecting he was dreaming. But how could he possibly dream of such a bizarre situation? It was impossible. So, this had to be real...

Heaven above, this new junior brother, could he actually be having an affair with Elder Qingxue? Elder Qingxue, the foremost of the Seven Sword Saints of the Taihua Immortal Sect.

Hiss—!!

At that moment, Yu Hao involuntarily inhaled a sharp breath of cold air.

Just who exactly was this junior brother, Ye Xuan? Elder Qingyan’s face also twitched...

Goodness, he had been naively hoping that there was some misunderstanding. But, damn it, seeing Ye Xuan’s expression, to say that he and Senior Sister Qingxue were not involved, he would never believe it.

Once, he himself had pursued Senior Sister Qingxue but, like others, stood no chance at all. She never paid any attention to them. Senior Sister Qingxue, once unattainable like a fairy... And now, she seemed involved with his new, underestimated disciple.

Thinking of this, Elder Qingyan felt his mood become somewhat strange. Complicated. Could it be that because of this, she wanted to take Ye Xuan as a disciple and spend day and night together? But why?!!

Elder Qingyan’s gaze turned towards Ye Xuan. Apart from looks, he didn’t see any difference between himself and this disciple.

Although he had long been married to Qingshuang, the thought that the woman he once loved was now with his disciple, and so unabashedly...

His disciple didn’t seem to have any noticeable merits, except being good-looking. What did Qingxue see in him?!!

At this moment, Elder Qingyan inexplicably felt a sense of defeat.
