Chapter 24: You will be special!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOM* As the blue lightning fell on the wolf with a loud thunderous sound, the earth churned up and because of the vibration, Ming Yuelin felt her body floating for a second.
"M-Master." Her clutch on his hand got tighter and as the lightning fell on the wolf, it was busted into nothingness.
As the lightning struck the ground, it splattered around as bolts of lightning crackled in the air, and Ming Yuelin saw several bolts of lightning blasting towards them.
"EH?" She gasped in shock but before it could reach her, a transparent barrier appeared in front of them, protecting them from the crackling lightning.
*thrisssh* The lightning disappeared from there and what was left was barren ground with black soil as whisps of sizzling smoke emerged from the ground and the dark sky also cleared.
"GAH!" Ming Yuelin's jaw dropped seeing the destruction it had caused and she glanced at Zhang Yuan in astonishment.
"M-Master, the lightning just now... it is the tribulation lightning of the heavens, right?"
Zhang Yuan smiled faintly "I am surprised you recognized it."
Ming Yuelin lowered her head "I saw my grandfather's ascension ceremony... and he was killed by the tribulation lightning when I was back in the Shen dynasty."
In her previous life huh... Zhang Yuan mused in his heart.
Among the cultivation stages, there is a stage called the Heaven profound stage and to cross this stage, every cultivator has to go through the tribulations of the heavens.
"But... Master, the one you summoned was more powerful than the one my grandfather faced."
Zhang Yuan gave a nod "Yeah, Mortals in Heaven Profound stage can't endure this lightning."
A tint of admiration flashed in Ming Yuelin's eyes as she muttered "And master, you have tamed that lightning and you are using it casually."
Looking at Ming Yuelin, who has stars in her eyes, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but chuckle and patted her head.
Feeling his pat, Ming Yuelin smiled and muttered "Master... you are really powerful."
Mei Yu raised her chest proudly and nodded "Indeed, my Lord is... I told you."
Zhang Yuan just shook his head softly "Let fetch the remaining herbs and return."
"Yes Master."
...
"This is the last one."
Zhang Yuan raised his gaze, looking at the green fruits that were hanging at the top of the big tree in front of them.
Ming Yuelin smiled "Don't worry Master, I will pick it up for you." she said as a beautiful silver bow appeared in her and she aimed at the fruits.
Meanwhile, Mei Yu on the side was plucking plants and flowers. Zhang Yuan walked closer to her "Yu'er, what are you doing?"
Mei Yu stood up from the ground and smiled gently "I just felt like the space around the house was so bland, so I thought of adding some flower plants outside it."
"I see." Zhang Yuan muttered as he crouched, plucking a white flower from the plant.
He then glimpsed at Mei Yu and placed it on her hand as an elegant barrette appeared in his hand, helping her stick the flower in her head.
...
After absorbing the effects of the medicinal bath, Ming Yuelin stood up and stepped out of the wooden bath tub.
Drying her body with a towel she took from her storage ring, she began to wear her bluish white robes.
"I will go and meet with Master."
As she came outside, she saw Zhang Yuan and Mei Yu were sittng on the wooden bench, his hand wapped around her shoulder.
Walking closer, she heard Mei Yu's voice "So My Lord, you are going to accept your next disciple?"
"Yeah..."
H-Huh? Ming Yuelin's heart shook upon hearing this 'Did he think that I am not a good disciple and want another?'
Thinking about this, her eyes quivered in pain and she hastily walked closer to him "Master, you are going to accept another disciple?"
Zhang Yuan turned his head and smiled "Oh, you finished the bath and yeah..."
Ming Yuelin quickly sat on his side and grabbed his hand "Master... I will work hard. Don't worry, I will condense Gold profound sea. I won't let you down."
With a chuckle, Zhang Yuan patted her head "I know you would, Yuelin."
Mei Yu blinked her eyes in confusion seeing the panic in Ming Yuelin's eyes "Little sister... did you think that My Lord was going to cut his relationship with you and accept another disciple?"
"Huh? Is it not the case?"
Zhang Yuan softly pinched her cheek "You idiot. I am not going to leave you. I am going to accept my second disciple... you would also want a junior sister, right?"
"O-Oh... i see." Ming Yuelin realized this and nodded her head as a relieved sigh escaped her lips.
But, she was still hesitant because if her Master got a new disciple, her time with him would get low and he might even forget about him.
However, amidst her throughts, she felt a gentle caress on her cheek and she raised her gaze, looking into his tender golden eyes "Master...?"
"Even after I get many disciples, my first disciple will have a special place in my heart. You are special to me, Yuelin."
Upon hearing this, Ming Yuelin's eyes trembled but then a soft smile took over her lips and she leaned on his shoulders, happiness washing over her heart.
"Thankyou, Master." a soft mumble escaped her lips.
