Chapter 22: Three wishes?!

Chapter 22: Three wishes?!

As Ming Yuelin's eyes narrowed, her blue eyes turned golden, her gaze sharpened, and the arrow slipped from her fingers.

*woosh* The silver arrow sliced through the air and in the next instant, broke through the head of the dummy.

*boom* A smile spread across Ming Yuelin's lips and she turned to Zhang Yuan "Master."

Zhang Yuan walked close to her, and as he raised his hand, Ming Yuelin lowered her head to accept his pat and relished in the warmth of his palm on her head.

"Did you find anything different when you shot the last arrow?"

Ming Yuelin was surprised and she hurriedly nodded "Yes Master, suddenly I felt the world slow down a bit, and my vision was so clear, like 4K UHD."

With a nod, Zhang Yuan spoke "It is your Phoenix bloodline that is giving you the powerful eyesight. You can perceive things around you even more clearly."

"Don't forget the sensation you felt."

Ming Yuelin nodded her head "Yes Master."

Zhang Yuan smiled "And you also need to cultivate quickly and cross the Profound Condensation realm to condense your Profound Sea."

Hearing this, Ming Yuelin's eyes shook because condensing the profound sea is one of the most important things, as it determines your talent and indicates how high you will reach in the future.

It is categorized from lowest to highest, with blue being the lowest and gold being the highest.

Blue->Green->Red->Purple->Gold

However, her talent is not the highest and she knows that.

She cupped her hands and bowed her head "Master, I know that I am not talented, but i will try my best to condense the profound purple sea."

Huh? Zhang Yuan bonked her head repeatedly "Purple? You are my disciple, and you are aiming for purple?"

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Master..." Ming Yuelin clutched her head in mild pain.

(╥_╥) Rubbing her head, she complained "Wahhh, Master... it hurts, it hurts. Only core disciples and talented ones can condense the profound purple sea and you are beating me for that?"

Zhang Yuan gently pinched her ear and pulled it softly. "Of course, you are my disciple. You have to aim for gold."

HUH? Ming Yuelin was dumbfounded hearing this and felt a slight pain in her ear "M-Master, the last time someone condensed the golden profound sea was during the Era of the Sovereigns."

°(?_?)° "Only those Sovereigns could condense golden profound sea."

Zhang Yuan chuckled softly and retracted his hand from her ear "And you think your talent is lower than that of those Sovereigns?"

Holding her reddened ear, Ming Yuelin nodded her head "Of course, they are legends in the history of this world."

Zhang Yuan's lips twitched and he grabbed her cheeks, squishing and pulling them "A-Ah... Master... wahh.. why are you bullying me? ?(???)? "

"I gave you those pills, refined your meridians and nourished your bones and muscles. Now you are saying that you are not talented?"

Meanwhile Ming Yuelin's eyelashes fluttered feeling the warmth of chest and closed her eyes.

*snif* 'Hm.. yeah... the unique scent of Master...'

As she basked in his scent, she felt a sudden tug at her cheek and instantly opened her eyes to look at Zhang Yuan.

"M-Master."

Pinching her cheek, Zhang Yuan spoke "Why are you keeping your eyes closed when I am training you?"

Ming Yuelin was embarassed and a quick blush colored her cheeks "Why do you keep bullying me, Master. Hmph."

...

Mei Yu walked through the narrow path and reached the top of the mountain with a basket in her hand.

Glimpsing at Zhang Yuan who was sitting on the bench, Mei Yu rushed to him, smiling excitedly "My Lord."

"Yu'er."

She sat beside him on the bench and placed the basket on her lap "My Lord... I went down the mountain and took some fruits."

Zhang Yuan smiled and wrapped his arm around her shoulder pulling her closer.

Mei Yu took the grapes from the basket and began to feed him "Here, My Lord..."

Mei Yu's eyes softened seeing him munching down the grapes and she remembered something.

"My Lord... I saw a fruit down there which could be useful for Little Sister. But I didn't take it as I wanted to ask you first."

Zhan Yuan nodded his head "Yeah, it is guarded by a spirit beast right?"

"Yes, My Lord.. that fruit."

"Hm.. after Yuelin condenses her Profound sea, there is a lot of things to do and she should also get that fruit."

"Haah... time to accept my second disciple is also nearing."

...

Ming Yuelin looked at Zhang Yuan and Mei Yu at the corner of her eyes and saw how Mei Yu is leaning on him so intimately, chuckling and bantering with him.

"They look a lot closer now."

Her eyes trembled for a second but then she shook her head and again focused on her training.
