He covered it up by saying, "Yes, we knew each other before. I became her student, so I'm a little more familiar with her. As for swordsmanship, it's just a few simple moves, nothing special."
Bai Ying didn't ask any more questions. She glanced at Yue Qingling's face and then quickly looked away.
Her focus was not on the other person's cultivation.
After seven days, she sincerely believed that Yue Qingling was truly charming.
No wonder the Empress liked him. Any female cultivator would develop feelings for him after spending time with him.
One reason is his handsome appearance.
More than anything, he was very gentle.
The dragon cultivators of the Southern Continent are too bloodthirsty and are quick to kill entire families.
A cultivator as polite and gentle as Yue Qingling is truly rare.
Moreover, his past experiences were so tragic that Yue Qingling did not turn evil.
It's clear that he has a good temperament.
Of course, the most important point is something Bai Ying doesn't know yet.
The higher Yue Qingling's cultivation level, the more alluring he becomes.
Although he never released it intentionally, it was like a gasoline drum; no matter how well sealed, the smell of gasoline would still escape.
Bai Ying has been spending a lot of time with these people these past few days, and her preferences have been influenced by their allure.
"Did you know? You're quite well-known in the academy now."
Bai Ying walked ahead of him with her hands behind her back, leading Yue Qingling on a stroll. She kept her eyes forward to avoid being tempted by him.
She did discover once again that the scenery on this beach was actually quite beautiful.
Yue Qingling was unaware of the situation. He followed behind Bai Ying and said with a wry smile, "Don't joke around."
"I've only been here a few days. What kind of fame could I possibly have?"
"You don't understand, do you?"
When Yao Gong came to the academy, she became quite famous.
Elder Yue Wuyan is so beautiful and her cultivation is not low, so many people want to be her disciple.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that she knows three thousand female cultivators is a huge resource in itself.
At the very least, my master can introduce me to a Daoist partner in the future.
However, Elder Yue's criteria for selecting disciples were extremely strict, and since she was also a sect leader with considerable prestige, the principal couldn't force her to accept disciples.
Therefore, she never closed her doors to any disciples.
Over time, people stopped hoping for it.
"Your arrival immediately made you Elder Yue's last disciple; everyone's surely curious."
Bai Ying explained with a smile.
Yue Qingling smiled and said, "Is that so? Then I'll try to keep a low profile in the future."
"Heh, you're thinking too simply."
Bai Ying suddenly stopped and pointed to the woods in the distance, where several figures appeared.
She said somewhat unhappily, "Yue Qingling, could you find a secluded place to cultivate in the future?"
Look at you, you've corrupted all of us fellow disciples."
"Huh? What did I do? Didn't you say there was no one here?"
The reason Yue Qingling came here to cultivate was because Bai Ying had said before that this beach was usually deserted and close to the sea, which met his requirements.
But to his surprise, only five or six days after he came here to cultivate, someone came to cause trouble.
Yue Qingling became alert.
He's new here and keeps a low profile, how could he possibly offend anyone?
The Southern Continent is indeed fraught with danger.
At this moment, the figures in the woods gradually appeared, and he saw seven or eight young female cultivators pushing and shoving each other, laughing and joking as they walked toward him.
They watched him while playfully bickering, taking three steps forward and one step back.
It wasn't until they were ten steps away from Yue Qingling that a blushing female cultivator was forcibly pushed forward by the group of women as their representative.
She approached Yue Qingling shyly, looking down at her shoes, and said, "Fellow Daoist, we saw you cultivating here alone and wanted to get to know you."
Me?
Yue Qingling asked blankly.
Why do these girls want to get to know him?
Do they want to become Yue Wuyan's disciples through their own efforts?
"Yes, we saw you cultivating here alone, working very hard. We wanted to ask if you could take us to cultivate together."
As you know, it's good to cultivate together so we can support each other.
The nun said solemnly.
Yue Qingling looked at her in confusion. Why did they want to cultivate together?
I don't know any of you.
"Cough cough."
White Oriole coughed coldly.
The nun then noticed Bai Ying and hurriedly asked nervously, "Your Highness? What are you doing here?"
Bai Ying was instantly furious.
So you guys didn't even see me just now?
"Wang Menghua, why aren't you cultivating properly? What are you doing here making friends?"
Are you sword cultivators really that free?
White Oriole couldn't help but mock.
Wang Menghua's face flushed red and then turned pale.
She naturally dared not provoke Bai Ying, but looking at Yue Qingling, her heart pounded like a deer.
Her positive feelings gave her the courage to act.
She simply went up to Yue Qingling, quickly shoved a letter into his hand, and then stumbled away.
"You're so brave!"
"Wow, Menghua, I admire you so much."
"Pursuing love without fear of power, Menghua, you will be my idol from now on!"
The group of girlfriends showered Wang Menghua with compliments, expressing both envy and jealousy, and then left amidst playful bickering.
Yue Qingling looked at the letter in her hand, which still had a faint scent of rouge on it.
This is……
A love letter?
"These fellow disciples are truly despicable!"
Bai Ying didn't know where the anger came from, but she angrily complained to Yue Qingling.
While complaining, she snatched the letter from his hand.
"Oh, I haven't seen it yet, someone gave it to me," Yue Qingling said quickly.
Bai Ying, holding the letter, said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Let me check first, hey? How did it catch fire?
Before the letter was even opened, it turned into a ball of flame, then to ashes, and drifted into the sea.
Yue Qingling: "..."
Bai Ying apologized without any remorse: "I'm so sorry, I accidentally set you on fire. I'll make you a new one."
Yue Qingling gave a slight smile: "No need."
He walked back with little interest.
Bai Ying quickly followed up with his rambling: "I told you, don't be so flamboyant. Look, you've only been here a few days and people are already writing you love letters."
Qingling, didn't you say that?
"You won't seek out women until you reach the Heavenly Cultivation Realm."
Yue Qingling suddenly turned around, a half-smile on her face, and said, "How did you know it was a love letter?"
Bai Ying was speechless when asked: "I..."
"You burned it, how can you be sure it was a love letter?"
What if it's some kind of cultivation technique?
He said it in an annoyed tone.
Bai Ying was also a little annoyed. She grabbed Yue Qingling's sleeve and said relentlessly, "Yue Qingling, what do you mean? Are you proud that these girls are chasing after you?"
I was just trying to help you out of a tight spot, and you're being so heartless!"
Yue Qingling pulled her sleeve back; he was a little angry.
He said politely but distantly, "These are my private matters. Is it okay for you to interfere like this? Have you ever respected me?"
