The people above seemed to be pondering Yuexi's question, as if they were hinting at something.
Ji Yun nodded and said, "The word 'love' has no beginning and no end. Once you fall into it and hold firm to your beliefs, all rules and constraints become meaningless in your presence."
Where is the golden eagle?
"......"
"Isn't it supposed to be a story about a fairy riding a golden eagle and dominating the martial arts world?"
"this......"
Ji Yun touched his nose. He didn't know how he ended up repeating the original version while talking. He had originally planned to modify it a bit.
He stared at the ground in thought, when suddenly he noticed shadows on the ground. He looked up and saw...
What are you doing here?
Upon hearing this, Yuexi hurriedly looked up and saw that everyone had fled in a panic.
The Supreme Elder: "Hehe, I just happened to be passing by. I'll be leaving now as I need to go into seclusion."
Ye Wudao: "That's strange. How did I end up here?"
The disciples exclaimed, "I didn't hear anything! That's strange. Why did Master call me here just now?"
Zuo Xintao, looking worried, landed.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, Yuexi, were you just... telling a story?"
Ji Yun said somewhat awkwardly, "Yes, Yuexi is bored with her cultivation, so I'm telling her some stories to help her relax."
Yuexi lowered her head, not daring to look at Zuo Xintao.
Looking at Yuexi's shy expression, Zuo Xintao said, "Yuexi, you need to distinguish between stories and reality. Fellow Daoist Ji is just telling a story."
Yuexi's voice was barely audible: "I know."
Ji Yun glanced at Zuo Xintao and realized that his master, Zuo Xintao, was overthinking things. How could he possibly seduce Yuexi? How ridiculous.
"Fellow Daoist Zuo, there's no need to overthink it. I treat Yuexi like my own child and would never do anything beastly!"
"I trust Fellow Daoist Ji's character, but I'm afraid Yuexi... Sigh, I'll be participating in the sect assessment tomorrow. Fellow Daoist Ji, just have Yuexi bring you then."
"OK!"
After Zuo Xintao left, he, who had almost died, quickly drank a sip of spiritual tea to calm his nerves.
Ji Yun looked at Yue Xi and asked, "Why are you staring at your teacher like that?"
"You said you wouldn't do anything beastly."
"I act with integrity and uprightness."
"You smelled it last night..."
Ji Yun felt a headache coming on; this was a hurdle he couldn't overcome.
"I just... well, I admit it, it smelled so good that I couldn't resist taking a sniff, but..."
"Master, you beast!"
Yuexi interrupted him, then gave a soft snort and turned to walk into the room.
Back in her room, Yuexi sniffed her clothes. "Does it smell good? I can't smell anything. Liar, beastly Shizun!"
Ji Yun was drinking tea alone in the small courtyard. He picked up a few tea leaves and threw them into the small pond next to him. Several spirit fish immediately jumped up and ate them, then fell into the water, splashing up a large spray.
As dusk fell, a gentle breeze began to blow.
He decided that in the days to come, he would pay more attention to his words and actions, so as not to cause any more misunderstandings with Yuexi.
After all, the path of cultivation is long and arduous, and Yuexi needs great strength and a firm will to go further.
Ji Yun knocked on his disciple's door: "Yuexi, are you cultivating?"
Seeing no response, he continued, "If you don't speak, I'll come in."
Yuexi opened the door directly and asked, "What is it, Master?"
"I can't sleep, so I might leave soon. Come and keep me company while I take a walk."
"Master can go for a walk by himself."
"What if Master's clothes fall off and are picked up by another fairy?"
"It has nothing to do with Yuexi." Yuexi pouted.
"Walk!"
Ji Yun grabbed her hand and headed for the door. She struggled a few times but couldn't break free, so she let him have his way.
The two strolled along the mountain peak, and Yuexi asked, "Master, where are we going?"
"I don't know either. Let's go find the Supreme Elder and see what resources he has that can help you break through as soon as possible."
In a pavilion on the main peak, Ji Yun and Yue Xi were sitting cross-legged on a futon.
"I am powerless to help, and I am truly ashamed before Senior Ji."
Ji Yun didn't react to the Supreme Elder's words, which was expected.
"It's alright, Yuexi. When we get back, I'll tell you a passage from the Daoist scriptures. See if you understand anything. The assessment is coming soon, so having more strength is always a good thing."
Yuexi nodded and replied, "Yes, Master."
Seeing that the two were about to leave, the Supreme Elder hurriedly said, "The Dharma can also be preached here..."
Ji Yun looked at him and smiled, "Does fellow Daoist also want to hear it? Very well, let's see if you can gain some insight."
Then the Supreme Elder and Yuexi sat upright on the prayer mats, their expressions serious, ready to listen carefully.
"The Great Dao is formless, yet it gives birth to heaven and earth; the Great Dao is without emotion, yet it governs the sun and moon; the Great Dao is nameless, yet it nurtures all things. I do not know its name, so I call it the Dao..."
An unusual phenomenon suddenly occurred, with Dao energy flowing within the pavilion. The powerful Dao energy immediately alarmed all the disciples of the sect.
Yuexi and the Supreme Elder were startled and hurriedly began to comprehend the meaning.
"The Way is..."
With a deafening roar, lightning struck from the sky.
"Who is undergoing tribulation? What is the meaning of this strange phenomenon?"
"The Supreme Elder has undergone tribulation?"
The disciples exclaimed in surprise.
At this moment, the Supreme Elder broke through to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage. He opened his eyes and was extremely excited. Seeing that Yue Xi was about to undergo tribulation, he hurriedly took Yue Xi to the top of the mountain.
Lingyun Sect disciple: "It's Junior Sister Yuexi!"
Lin Shengwen was also alerted and came out. When he saw his junior sister Yuexi undergoing tribulation, a complicated look flashed in his eyes. He used to have the highest cultivation, but now he has been surpassed by his junior sister. He still hasn't found the opportunity to undergo tribulation.
Wang Haoran glanced at Lin Shengwen beside him and casually said, "She used to be a junior sister, and now she might become a senior sister. What a twist of fate."
Lin Shengwen looked at him calmly, then turned and walked away.
The disciples of Lingyun Sect flocked to watch, for they didn't get to see someone undergoing a Nascent Soul Tribulation so often.
Li Wunian shouted loudly, "Junior Sister Yuexi, you must get through this!"
Elder Bai Xiao smiled and said, "Congratulations, Elder Zuo, your disciple Yuexi is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."
"Congratulations!" the other elders also offered their congratulations.
Zuo Xintao paused for a moment before finally saying, "It's too early to offer congratulations. I don't know if we can get through this."
She was clearly worried, after all, undergoing tribulation was no small matter, and many people perished under the heavenly tribulation.
Bai Xiao smiled and said, "With Senior Ji here, everything should be foolproof. Elder Zuo, don't worry."
Ye Wudao also said, "Yes, with Senior Ji here, he will definitely protect your disciple's safety, and besides, he is also his disciple."
"I hope so, otherwise I will risk my life to protect Yuexi, this promising talent."
Everyone was shocked to hear this and urged Zuo Xintao not to act rashly and not to challenge the power of Heaven.
