Chapter 7 Qinghuli and Yunchunhua
“Young Master Yun Yuelin of the Yun family,” Qingfeng already had some objections to Yun Yuelin’s contemptuous attitude towards her Immortal Lord. Taking advantage of the fact that they had walked away, she said, “His temper is a bit bad, but his cultivation is not bad. Junior Brother and Junior Sister, you should not provoke him. He is not an easy person to talk to.”
The moon and clouds descend.
Qingjue thought to himself silently.
At first glance, people who didn't know might have thought it was a girl's name.
Moreover, when Qingjue was telling stories to children in his original world, he recited a poem called "Moon Over Flowers".
"Flowers sway in the wind, the moon casts a hazy shadow, clouds separate the Wu Gorge from the waves, and snow leaks through the peaks of Gu Peak."
The moonflower is white and trumpet-shaped, with a small bloom on a branch, and it blooms in spring.
That name is completely at odds with that person's temperament.
Let me think... since the male and female leads have already appeared.
Qingjue mentally flipped through several novel plots.
Yun Yue Lin's character design.
A sworn enemy is a sworn enemy.
but……
Qingjue glanced at the still-wet-smelling child beside him.
The age difference between them is quite large, isn't it? Shouldn't sworn enemies be those who have been at odds since childhood? But looking at the current situation, Yun Yuelin is actually not at all compatible with him.
This reminds Qingjue that he himself has quite a few buffs, and he needs to find a way to remove the protagonist buffs from himself, as he has no interest in being the protagonist.
For cultivators, age is irrelevant. When Jie Zhoujian or Ruan Linglai grows up, Yun Yuelin will still be Yun Yuelin, unchanged. They might even become the head of the family, and the two will have many interactions.
It seems this person is indeed an important figure in their growth path. I should introduce them more often in the future, act as a matchmaker, build goodwill, and pave the way.
"Qingfeng".
"exist."
"Tell Qinghuan to hold back for now and see how the Yun family handles the situation."
"Huh?" Qingfeng was a little unconvinced: "But we were here first... How can we give it to them? Who knows what Young Master Yun will say about you then."
"It's alright, let's just treat it as a spectacle."
Qingfeng didn't know what Qingjue's considerations were, but she could only do as he said. In any case, the Immortal Lord must have his reasons for doing so.
There is no doubt about the strength of the Yun family, after all, this is a family that can be compared with the Qing family, and it is just a small monster.
But if he, as the head of the Qing family, came intentionally, why did the eldest young master of the Yun family personally lead the group here? It must be something special.
Regardless, let him have it.
Qingjue possessed Ruan Linglai and He Jiezhoujian, saying, "Let's go see what's going on between them."
Qingjue walked to the side and beckoned to one of the Yun family members who was keeping watch.
Given that the other party had a noble and righteous identity, he hesitated before walking over.
"Don't be nervous, young man. I just want to know, Chun, isn't your young master supposed to be extremely busy? Why would he personally lead people to this remote little village to eliminate a monster?"
“…Reporting to Immortal Lord Wuqing,” the young disciple of the Yun family, being neither as skilled nor as high-ranking as him, naturally prioritized courtesy, saying, “The young master… just happened to be passing by and encountered some villagers on their way. After learning about the situation, he came to help out; he didn’t come specifically for this purpose…”
lie.
The disciples of the Yun family all know that the Qing family and the Yun family have been vying for first and second place every year. Their young master is good in every way, except that he has a bad temper and cares a lot about his reputation. He especially dislikes the arrogant attitude of Immortal Lord Wu Qing.
Five years ago, they fought over the credit for a monster, bickering with each other while fighting the monster.
That scene—
Even a three-year-old would find it childish.
Qingjue was quite curious about what they were originally planning to do, but he didn't press the matter.
"Oh, I see. By the way, let me introduce you. These are my apprentices, Jie Zhoujian and Ruan Linglai."
"?"
"Come, Zhoujian Linglai, perform the sword techniques I taught you before for your brother."
So this is what it feels like to be from the perspective of an elder? In the end, I became the person I hated the most.
Especially notice the admiration in the disciple's eyes for his young apprentice.
"Wow, Immortal Lord, how old are your disciples?"
"He's not even five years old yet, and he's only just started learning from me. He's not very skilled yet."
"Wow! They've only been learning for a short time, and they're already amazing! They're practically geniuses!"
"Oh, no, no, it's just daytime spirit music. Please say thank you."
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Thank you, big brother!"
Cool.
You'll have to put in a good word for your young master then, you little lackey.
The Yun family disciples worked quickly and completed the formation without interference from others. When Yun Yuelin, as the young master, checked for any omissions, he saw the disciples standing with Qingjue Jie during the day, and more importantly, his own disciples seemed to be enjoying themselves. His brows furrowed.
And it wasn't just one person, but several people surrounding it.
He was furious and said, "What are you doing?"
The other disciples of the Yun family followed behind him, each of them somewhat puzzled.
"Young Master," the junior disciple standing next to Qingjue quickly came to his senses and admitted his mistake: "No, no, it wasn't me."
“It’s me,” Qingjue stepped forward. “I asked my disciple to perform swordplay for him. Would you like to watch together? My disciple is very talented.”
He nodded quietly during the day.
“Performance…” Yun Yuelin’s expression shifted from anger to confusion: “Immortal Lord Wuqing, you? Taking on a disciple?”
"It seems you don't know this news yet," Qingjue said smugly and enthusiastically, patting Jie Zhoujian's head: "This is my disciple, Jie Zhoujian, a cultivation prodigy with noble character, and Ruan Linglai, a gifted and intelligent young woman."
The young disciple of the Yun family was about to nod in agreement, but Yun Yuelin glared at him and stopped him.
“I have no interest in listening to your nonsense,” Yun Yuelin almost rolled her eyes, and said to her junior disciple, “Yun Xiang, let’s go.”
"Alright, young master..."
Qingjue said, "We'll have to wait until evening. The hilltop isn't that big. Why don't we sit down and have a cup of tea together?"
"No need. Wouldn't it be an eyesore for Immortal Lord Wuqing if my Yun family disciples stayed?"
"How could that be? I see that your disciple also likes my disciple very much. I brought Zhou Jianlinglai with me on this trip to broaden his horizons and let him come into contact with cultivators. It's a good thing."
“You surnamed Qing,” Yun Yuelin turned around and crossed her arms, her tone slightly puzzled, “I don’t know what’s wrong with you, but whether you’re a transgender person or not, where did you pick up this child? Go back to him or don’t let him harm you.”
Jie Zhoujian spoke up: "Zhoujian's parents were bad people, and they are already dead."
Yun Yuelin: "..."
Yun Yuelin admitted that she had spoken too quickly and had been too busy arguing with him.
“Oh, what a pitiful child,” Qingjue said with heartache. “Born into such a family, he still suffers prejudice when he goes out. He can’t even have normal conversations with his disciples. How pitiful.”
?
Jie Zhoujian shook his head and said seriously, "Zhoujian is not pitiful. He met his master and his senior sisters and brothers who treat him very well."
Ruan Linglai clenched her small fists, her eyes red-rimmed, and said, "Then I will protect my senior brother too!"
Yunxiang, being young and incredibly innocent, covered her mouth and said, "So touching..."
Yun Yuelin's sense of guilt vanished.
He couldn't understand it, but he was deeply shocked.
However, what is certain is that this person surnamed Qing has been silent for several years, which makes him even more annoying.
Who asked him that?
Seeing his expression, Qingjue quickly said, "Just kidding, don't take it seriously. Although he had a tragic past, he was resolute. There's no need to be sad for him."
"Master is right."
This back-and-forth exchange left Yun Yuelin stunned, and she gritted her teeth, uttering a harsh remark.
"It's been so many years. Do you still remember the first time we fought when we first met?"
"Of course I haven't forgotten, we're evenly matched."
"Step back," Yun Yuelin urged her disciple to retreat, drew a pure white sword, and twirled it around in her hand a couple of times: "If you have the guts, come again. There's no need to put on this act of deep master-disciple affection in front of me."
Qingjue shook his head, his expression filled with regret: "We are truly good master and disciple, why don't you believe me, Chunhua'er?"
He genuinely wanted to improve his public image.
The Yun family disciples around him choked on their saliva and almost choked to death.
This title...
Even Qinghuan and Qingfeng, who were not far away, couldn't hold back.
The person on the other end gritted their teeth and said, "Say it again...?"
Qingjue, fearing he hadn't heard clearly, said as he wished: "Spring, Flower, Child."
Yun Yuelin drew her sword and, without any hesitation, fiercely thrust it in that direction. The sword energy surged, and Qingjue leaped up, drawing her own sword to fight Yun Yuelin in mid-air.
Yun Yuelin was so angry that she didn't intend to show any mercy. She swung her sword with all her might, knowing that her opponent could withstand it. The Qingjue technique was perfectly adapted to this body, and she used the technique just right. The sword energy on both sides cut down the surrounding tree branches. The Yun family disciples looked up at the sky, dazzled.
Sword against sword, Qingjue blocked Yunyuelin's question: "What a fine sword, what's its name?"
"As expected, you still can't shake your arrogant attitude!" Yun Yuelin unleashed a powerful strike, deflecting the sword's energy. Even though her hand was numb from the recoil, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll tell you today that this sword is called 'Wang Sheng' (meaning 'Life in Vain'), and your 'Misty Green' will soon become its defeated foe!"
The two fought from the sky down to the mountain, and just as the flowers, grass and trees on the mountaintop were about to be leveled, Qingjue finally stopped and landed lightly.
Seeing that he didn't want to fight anymore, Yun Yuelin looked down at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "What do you mean?"
"After all, I have important matters to attend to today. Since the sparring session ended inconclusively, let's continue another day. However, those few moves were enough for the young friends of the Yun family to witness the strength of their young master. My disciple also broadened his horizons."
If we keep fighting, what if we actually lose?
"Qinghu, if you want to fight, then fight. Do you really think I, Yun Yuelin, am afraid of you?"
Qingjue: "We should have many opportunities to exchange skills in the future, Chunhua'er."
"You...! Qinghu! Try calling me again and I'll take your life!"
"whee."
Fortunately, his disciples stopped him. Qingjue, along with Xie Zhoujian and Ruan Linglai, sat on a large tree to find some peace and quiet.
Qingjue asked abruptly, "I remember, that older brother is very powerful."
Ruan Linglai asked, "Master means..."
"Yun Yuelin's personality, cultivation level, family traditions, and moral principles are all good."
"After I'm gone, you can go find him."
