Despite the huge age gap, in Ying'er's heart, the old temple master was like a father figure.
"Silly child, all good things must come to an end. Stay with Ye Qiu from now on, and you will see a wider world."
The old temple master spoke earnestly.
Ying'er knew that the old palace master's mind was made up, and that she was destined to follow Ye Qiu closely from now on.
She can accept this.
Ying'er found it hard to accept that the old temple master was about to pass away!
"Child, come, sit down, let's have a good talk."
The old temple master patted the steps beside him.
"Um."
Ying'er sat down.
The old temple master smiled and said, "I have an idea. You are my last disciple, and Ye Qiu is also the last disciple of an old friend of mine. You two are about the same age and both have extraordinary talent. Why don't you become a couple and go further together as husband and wife?"
“Master…” Ying’er’s cheeks flushed slightly: “This guy looks like a womanizer. I can follow him, but I don’t want to marry him.”
"Haha, look at what you're saying. Throughout history, wealthy and powerful men in the mortal world have all had three wives and four concubines, let alone an extraordinary being like Ye Qiu who transcends the mortal world? With your strength and looks, you can definitely find someone who is devoted to you, but are you willing to accept that? For two people to stay together for a long time, they still need to keep up with each other."
The old temple master spoke earnestly and patiently.
"We'll see...we'll talk about it later. I'll go with him for now."
Ying'er whispered.
"Ying'er, your master's last wish is that you and Ye Qiu can be together. In this way, in the years to come, you will become his closest shadow, taking care of each other, and only then can your master truly rest in peace."
The old temple master did not give up.
Ying'er clenched her jade-like hand tightly, her heart filled with inner turmoil.
After much hesitation, Ying'er finally said, "I... even if I have no objection, he has to agree. He's seen too many beauties, he might not even be interested in me."
"When this kid sees you, he'll probably drool. Don't be fooled by his usual aloof and arrogant demeanor. In reality, he's just like his master when he was young—a womanizer."
The old palace master smiled.
Are you lustful?
Ying'er was a little shy.
"That's only human nature."
"Um..."
Ying'er didn't know what to say.
In the blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened.
At this moment, the dragon-shaped scabs on Ye Qiu's body finally fell off piece by piece.
In a short while, Ye Qiu revealed his true form.
At this moment, Ye Qiu was completely naked, revealing his incredibly fair and tender skin.
His skin is now as white and tender as a baby's.
But this fair skin is not as fragile as a baby's; it is truly impervious to blades and bullets, and extremely powerful.
The reason it looks fair and tender is because the power of its bloodline has been revived, which is a manifestation of the transformation and sublimation of its body.
“Master, he...he doesn’t know any shame at all.”
Ying'er turned around hastily, blushing.
Ye Qiu soon saw the old palace master and Ying'er, and couldn't help but blush. He couldn't hide it anymore, and he was too lazy to hide it any longer.
"Kid, you've got some serious money to burn, just like I did when I was young."
The old temple master said with a smile.
"This..." Ye Qiu chuckled dryly, "Old Palace Master, I suspect you're bragging."
"What bragging? I never brag. I wasn't young when I was young either."
"Haha, good, it seems we are kindred spirits."
"That must be it."
"Ugh, Master, can you please stop talking about such boring topics?" Ying'er couldn't stand it anymore and stomped her feet in anger.
"Ahem, let's not talk about that. You look closely, kid. This is Ying'er, my last disciple. From now on, she will follow you every step of the way, acting as your shadow. You must treat her well."
The old temple master said solemnly.
"No, please!" Ye Qiu hurriedly said, "Such a good girl shouldn't be with me all the time. It would be a waste of her time. It's better to let her develop freely."
"If you feel you're holding her back, then marry her. What do you say?"
"..."
Ye Qiu was speechless and dared not respond.
"Let's not talk about that now. Come with me and get dressed. We can discuss this in detail later. You're all naked, like a mudfish, which isn't suitable for discussing important matters," the old temple master said.
"All right."
Ye Qiu sighed inwardly.
After his dragon blood boiled and he underwent a complete transformation, he wanted to carefully observe his current changes and combat strength, and how they differed from before.
But since the old temple master had said so, Ye Qiu couldn't refuse.
Soon after, Ye Qiu finally got dressed and sat in the old temple master's study with the old temple master and Ying'er.
Ying'er stood behind the old temple master as usual, without saying a word.
But Ying'er's gaze would occasionally fall on Ye Qiu, secretly observing him.
As soon as Ye Qiu looked at her, she would immediately blush and look away, avoiding eye contact with him.
