Chapter 92 Filial Piety Towards the Master
!
Inside the Cold Jade Palace, precious light shimmered brilliantly.
Yun Yuzhen looked at the box of "supreme yin ultimate bliss pills" in her arms, then at the small mountain in the center of the hall that was enough to drive the entire Taichu Holy Land crazy, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
She raised her head, looking at the handsome face so close to her, feeling the warmth coming from those slender fingers, and her heart skipped a beat.
"Rebellious Disciple..."
Her voice was as faint as a mosquito's hum. She wanted to say something to re-establish her masterly authority, but under the gaze of those smiling eyes, she couldn't utter a single word.
"Hmm?"
Su Ye raised an eyebrow, his fingertips gently stroking her delicate chin. "What did Revered Master say? Your disciple didn't hear clearly."
"I said..."
Yun Yuzhen took a deep breath, trying hard to make herself look calmer, but the rosy flush on her face burned all the way to her ears, even staining her snow-white neck with a faint layer of pink.
"You did... a good job."
After saying this, she wished she could bury her face in her chest.
The dignified Peak Master of Purple Bamboo Peak at the tenth level of Undergoing Tribulation, the number one ice beauty of the Taichu Holy Land, was actually teased by her own disciple into saying such words!
Lin Waner covered her mouth and giggled nearby, her eyes curving into crescents. She had long since grown accustomed to this strange atmosphere between her Senior Brother and Revered Master, and even found it quite interesting.
Lin Qianxue silently looked away, pretending to study the sword embryo in her hand, but her slightly reddened ear tips betrayed her.
"That's more like it."
Su Ye withdrew his hand with satisfaction and sat down beside Yun Yuzhen. The Cold Jade Couch was bone-chillingly cold, but for someone with his powerful Physical Body, it wasn't a problem at all.
"Revered Master, come, look at the gifts your disciple brought for you."
With a casual wave of his hand, several items flew out from the small mountain of Spirit Stones and landed steadily in front of Yun Yuzhen.
A ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus, entirely snow-white and emitting a piercing cold air. Its petals were crystal clear, each as thin as a cicada's wing, with fine frost condensed upon them. This was a supreme treasure grown in the depths of ten-thousand-year-old glaciers, a priceless treasure for Cultivators practicing ice-attribute Cultivation Techniques.
A piece of Star Sand the size of a fist, shimmering with a faint blue light. This was formed from Exotic Meteoritic Iron tempered by ten thousand years of astral power, a top-grade material for refining Sovereign Grade Magic Treasures.
There was also a bottle of Medicinal Pills emitting a faint golden light, with a label stuck on it: "Sovereign Grade Low Grade · Ice Heart Jade Bone Pill." This was a supreme holy medicine specifically for tempering the physique and strengthening the Ice Spirit Root; it was simply unavailable on the market, a treasure beyond price.
"This... these are all for me?"
Yun Yuzhen blinked, momentarily dazed. Any one of these items, if taken outside, would cause the Elders of the entire Taichu Holy Land to fight to the death for it.
"Of course."
Su Ye nodded as if it were only natural. "Revered Master's things belong to Revered Master, and your disciple's things also belong to Revered Master. The entire Purple Bamboo Peak belongs to Revered Master, so naturally, your disciple also belongs to Revered Master."
When he said this, his eyes were incredibly sincere, but the mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth couldn't be hidden no matter what.
Yun Yuzhen's pretty face turned red, and she glared at him. "What nonsense are you talking!"
"How is your disciple talking nonsense?"
Su Ye looked innocent. "Your disciple is showing filial piety to Revered Master with absolute sincerity. These days, Revered Master has been working day and night to teach your disciple; your disciple sees it and feels it in his heart."
As he spoke, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally swept over Yun Yuzhen's translucent gauze dress, a flash of heat flickering in his eyes.
"Especially last night, Revered Master was quite exhausted from helping your disciple stabilize his cultivation."
"Shut up!"
Yun Yuzhen was so embarrassed she directly picked up a jade pillow and threw it at his face.
This Rebellious Disciple! Bringing up exactly what shouldn't be mentioned!
Could what happened last night be called "teaching"?!
It was clearly this bastard taking advantage of her, bullying her until she was half dead!
She, the dignified Peak Revered Master at the tenth level of Undergoing Tribulation, was actually made so weak by her own disciple that she could only hold him and beg for mercy...
At the thought of those images, Yun Yuzhen felt her whole body burning up, and especially seeing that box of "supreme yin ultimate bliss pills," she was so ashamed she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
What did this bastard mean by sending this kind of pill? Was he dissatisfied with her performance last night?!
"Revered Master, don't be shy."
Su Ye caught the jade pillow, his smile becoming even more brilliant. "It is only natural for a disciple to show filial piety to his Revered Master. In the future, whatever Revered Master wants, just say the word, and your disciple will go rob it... ahem, go alms-gathering for you."
Lin Waner finally couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Senior Brother, you wanted to say 'rob' just now, didn't you?"
"Nonsense!"
Su Ye spoke with righteous indignation. "The Purple Bamboo Peak Bandit Squad never robs, we only gather alms! This is called acting on behalf of Heaven, robbing the rich to help the poor! Pill Cauldron Peak is so rich, what's wrong with sharing a little with us? This is called resource sharing, this is called common prosperity!"
"Then Senior Brother, when are we going alms-gathering again?"
Lin Waner's eyes sparkled, her small fists clenched tight. "I think Beast Taming Peak seems quite wealthy too. I heard they have many Spirit Beast eggs and various Spirit Beast Materials there; they must be worth a lot of Spirit Stones!"
"And Artifact Refining Peak!"
She grew more excited as she spoke. "They have so many Ores there! All kinds of fine gold and secret silver! And finished Magic Treasures! Senior Brother, when are we going to take a stroll around Artifact Refining Peak?"
Lin Qianxue's eyes also lit up upon hearing this. Her sword embryo urgently needed a large amount of precious Ore for sharpening; Artifact Refining Peak was definitely a good place.
Yun Yuzhen pressed her hand to her forehead, feeling only a sense of mental exhaustion.
It was over; her two well-behaved disciples had been completely led astray by Su Ye.
How long had it been, and they were already thinking about robbing other peaks?
"Waner, one cannot be too greedy."
Su Ye patted Lin Waner's shoulder earnestly. "We just pulled off a big job today; we need to keep a low profile for a few days to avoid the spotlight. Once that old fellow Peak Master Liu Changqing recovers his strength, we'll go to the next one."
"How long will that take?"
Lin Waner was a bit disappointed.
"Don't worry, it will be soon."
A flash of cunning light crossed Su Ye's eyes. "I've calculated with my fingers; in three days at most, someone from Beast Taming Peak will come to proactively deliver some warmth."
"Really?"
Lin Waner looked skeptical.
"When has your Senior Brother ever lied to you?"
Su Ye was full of confidence. "Just you wait and see."
...
As it turned out, Su Ye's premonition was correct.
Three days later.
Purple Bamboo Peak, Cold Jade Palace.
Yun Yuzhen was sitting in meditation on the couch, refining the medicinal power of that ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus. Su Ye sat nearby, boredly flipping through the Alchemy insights he had plundered from Peak Master Liu Changqing.
Although he didn't know how to refine pills, this stuff could be exchanged for Spirit Stones or used for extortion and blackmail.
Lin Waner and Lin Qianxue were counting the spoils, categorizing the Medicinal Pills and neatly stacking the Spirit Stones. The two young girls were working with great interest, their faces overflowing with satisfied smiles.
Right at that moment.
A streak of light landed outside the Cold Jade Palace, and a clear voice called out:
"Is Junior Brother Su Ye of Purple Bamboo Peak here? I have come by order of the Holy Lord to invite you!"
Su Ye raised an eyebrow and put down the book in his hand.
"The Holy Lord invites me?"
He stood up and walked slowly to the door.
Outside the hall stood a young man dressed in a white robe. This man was exceptionally handsome, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and his aura was as vast as the sea—he was clearly at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul realm.
