Youyou couldn't understand where her teaching methods went wrong, turning a perfectly nice, soft-spoken girl into this.
Thinking back, I remember that when Shuiyan refused the marriage proposal, she seemed to have said that she wanted to become a sword cultivator like her.
But she's clearly not a sword cultivator. Based on her game skills, she could equip any weapon. Why would Shuiyan think she was a sword cultivator? She only used the Sword God's Boundless skill once in front of her.
Wait, Sword God Wutian!
Could it be because of her shouting out?
"With no man in one's heart, drawing the sword is naturally divine!" This is equivalent to "Men affect the speed of the sword!"
It seems... there's nothing wrong with it?
Yeah, right!
(╯~Д~)╯╘═╛
That was just a shout to activate a skill, nothing more, don't interpret it randomly!
Youyou is now on the right track!
Just as she was hesitating about how to explain, the person who had been coldly stepping on Kui Bi suddenly looked up and looked in her direction.
In an instant, the face that had been covered in millennia of icy coldness melted away, revealing a smile as warm as spring blossoms. Even her voice rose several octaves as she exclaimed in delight, "Sect Master!"
As soon as she spoke, all the disciples who were watching the battle turned their heads in unison, looking over with surprise and joy. Their smiles were like a field of sunflowers in bloom. After a while, they all clasped their hands in a salute.
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
"Ahem..." Youyou was a little troubled. In front of so many people, it was not appropriate to tell Shuiyan directly that there was a problem with the swordsmanship she practiced. So he coughed and said, "Everyone, please don't be so polite. I was just passing by and came to take a look."
Shuiyan, on the other hand, looked over with delight and quickly walked over, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Sect Leader, have you come to watch me fight?"
"Uh... I saw a little bit!" Her lips twitched, the most ruthless bit.
Shuiyan suddenly seemed to be encouraged by something, and smiled even more happily, her little face flushed red. "Sect Master, rest assured, we have never slacked off in our cultivation. We practice hard every day to improve our cultivation. In the future, we will definitely spread the fame of Zhenyan Sect throughout the entire Xianze. We will never let down the Sect Master's cultivation of us."
Upon hearing this, the other disciples nodded in agreement, looking quite convinced, and began to chime in with their own comments.
"That's right, Senior Sister Shuiyan is right. Even with Master Qiu's guidance, I've only advanced two minor realms. I really need to work harder."
"Yes, I've only just reached the Foundation Establishment stage. I need to speed up my cultivation if I want to form the Core."
"I'm even worse off. I'm only at the Qi Refining Perfection stage. I just received the Foundation Establishment Pill and I still need to work hard to establish my foundation!"
"Me too. I've already consumed a whole bottle of Rejuvenation Pills, and I've only advanced four, five... six or seven levels. I still need to work hard in my cultivation so as not to disappoint the sect leader."
"And me..."
Youyou: "..."
It was as if she could see a huge flock of hungry lambs. Suddenly, she felt a dull ache in her sect's purse, as a large number of sect expenses were beckoning to her.
Sigh, being the head of the family is so tough!
"Actually... there's no need to rush!" A new company needs time to develop, and I wonder if Yuan Qi has any plans to go out and explore. You You turned to look at the only person on the ground who hadn't spoken, perhaps because he couldn't bring himself to do so, and changed the subject, "Is he... alright?"
Shuiyan seemed to only then remember Kui Bi lying on the ground. She glanced down at him before replying, "Sect Master, rest assured, it's just a normal duel. I knew my limits." She then kicked him, saying, "Are you alive? Give me a reaction!"
Sure enough, the person on the ground weakly raised a hand and murmured, "I...I'm here..."
"Alive, I'm fine!" Shuiyan replied confidently.
"..." No, do you have some misunderstanding about the word "discretion"?
Youyou really felt that something was wrong with Shuiyan's teaching methods! And she had just heard from the disciples that she was practicing some kind of ruthless sword path, which sounded like a villain's technique! She looked up at her with some hesitation, then thought for a moment and said, "By the way, where is Qiu Zhang? I need to talk to him about something!" No, she had to talk to the child's homeroom teacher.
"Reporting to the sect leader, Master Qiu is copying books in his room!" A disciple pointed to the courtyard not far away and said, "It is the time for the master to nourish his soul. He usually uses this time to copy books in his room."
You nodded, offered a few more words of encouragement to the disciples, and then, amidst their reluctant gazes, strode towards Qiu Zhang's courtyard. Sure enough, there he saw a remnant soul that had solidified considerably, sitting within a complex array, pen in hand, writing furiously at a desk.
Upon seeing Youyou arrive, he was clearly pleased and enthusiastically began to report on his teaching achievements over the past few days. Youyou then directly addressed the issue of the hookah and his concerns.
"What's wrong with the Path of Ruthlessness?" Qiu Zhang was taken aback. Compared to her worry, he was quite calm. He stroked his snow-white beard and said, "Sect Master, you are overthinking it. Although Miss Shuiyan is a female cultivator, she is indeed a promising talent in the sword path. In addition, she has a clear sword heart and has already seen through the ways of the world. She is most suitable to cultivate this Path of Ruthlessness! Even I have never seen such a suitable person in all these years."
"Is it really okay to cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness? Won't it affect her personality?" She always felt that the Path of Ruthlessness was something that tragic characters in TV dramas or scumbags in novels who killed to prove their Dao cultivated.
"Sect Master, there is no need to worry! The ruthless sword path is not a cold-hearted, emotionless, desireless, or unambitious way." Qiu Zhang continued to explain, "The so-called ruthlessness refers to the sword path of never regretting the sword once it is drawn, going straight ahead without leaving any room for maneuver or emotion, and killing the enemy as soon as the sword is drawn, rather than referring to the human nature of the user."
