Chapter 132: Chapter 130: Finding a Strict Master for Qin Yu!
For Qin Yu, this was his first time boarding a Cloud Ship.
After stepping aboard, he couldn’t help but take a closer look and found that it was actually a series of towering buildings, like floating pavilions walking within clouds, majestic and magnificent, stacked in three layers, forming a spectacular sight.
Others gradually boarded the ship too. The First Fairy, Su Xiyue, maintained her aloof demeanor, keeping everyone at arm’s length. After boarding the ship, she disappeared to the topmost layer.
Qin Yu glanced lightly, then withdrew his gaze.
Sigh.
It seems he’ll be unable to help Fairy Xiyue improve her Root Bone during this period.
Noticing his gaze lingering where Su Xiyue had disappeared, Liu Zixiao narrowed her eyes slightly and explained, "The Saintess is of a reserved nature, not fond of socializing, not deliberately distancing herself from you."
Liu Zixiao was very confident in the charm of her Saintess. It was perfectly natural that Qin Yu, being young, vigorous, and in high spirits, should feel admiration towards Su Xiyue.
On the contrary, if Qin Yu had no thoughts about Su Xiyue, that would be abnormal.
That’s why, when she noticed Qin Yu’s gaze unwittingly fall upon Su Xiyue, she offered an explanation to prevent any misunderstanding.
To Cyan Mountain Sect, Qin Yu was like a treasure. Moreover, having just entered the sect, he had not yet developed a sense of belonging, so Liu Zixiao naturally took care to consider his feelings.
"I was too abrupt."
Realizing Liu Zixiao’s misunderstanding, Qin Yu grinned slightly, with a tinge of embarrassment, but did not elaborate further.
He surely couldn’t say he simply wanted to help Fairy Xiyue improve her Root Bone, could he?!
Liu Zixiao’s smile remained gentle as she skillfully changed the subject, personally explaining the Spirit Gathering Array and layout on the Cloud Ship.
At the topmost layer, there is a Spirit Gathering Array, using Spirit Stones as its base. The intensity of Spiritual Qi is no less than that of the sect’s Spirit Vein. However, such fortune is reserved only for elders and core members.
Qin Yu was also staying at the topmost layer.
And Liu Zixiao personally accompanied them up there, carefully selecting a place for him to rest.
Although it was just one room, the space inside was extremely spacious, divided into three compartments.
One for peaceful rest, one for focused cultivation, and one for cleansing and bathing. The layout was reasonable, displaying elegance.
As the door gently opened, a rush of dense Spiritual Qi filled the air, its intensity ten times greater than that in Lin Xian City.
"This room is protected by a powerful array, even if the Cloud Ship is destroyed, the room will remain safe, and can even activate the array to leave quickly!"
Liu Zixiao’s thorough introduction made Qin Yu feel a bit overwhelmed.
"Thank you for your efforts, Elder Liu!"
His attitude greatly pleased Liu Zixiao. Just as she was about to arrange rooms for Yin Qinghe and Lin Shuishui, she found that the two had entered together with Qin Yu.
What the heck?!
Aren’t one of them his aunt-in-law and the other his master’s wife?!
Liu Zixiao’s eyes flickered with astonishment but quickly composed herself. Yet when she glanced at Qin Yu again, there was something peculiar in her eyes.
Even his aunt-in-law and master’s wife aren’t off-limits?
She had assumed Yin Qinghe and Lin Shuishui were just family members of Qin Yu.
At such an age, having so many Dao Companions... it seems this newly recruited core disciple has quite... unique preferences.
Liu Zixiao wasn’t intent on meddling in Qin Yu’s private affairs, but the path of Alchemy requires immense dedication. How can Qin Yu achieve greatness this way?!
It seems he needs to be assigned a stricter mentor.
If he isn’t urged properly, wouldn’t that be wasting his innate talent?!
"If you need anything, feel free to find me."
Leaving those words, Liu Zixiao departed for her room.
Not bad!
This was her evaluation of Qin Yu.
As an Immortal Sect Elder, she certainly didn’t need to accompany Qin Yu so much and engage with his family.
Liu Zixiao naturally had her reasons for doing so.
She was observing Lin Qianqian and others, noting their interactions with Qin Yu, ultimately confirming ...
Qin Yu showed no pretense; it was genuinely his nature.
Whether it was Lin Qianqian or Zhao Mengli, their eyes held only him, with emotions nearly overflowing, without any pretense.
As for Lin Shuishui, she even had a somewhat endearing childishness, showing Qin Yu’s indulgence towards her little quirks.
These observations came from Liu Zixiao’s keen eye for subtle actions and expressions.
Upon returning to her room, she reported this to Sect Leader Su Xihe!
"That’s good!"
Su Xihe was also pleased, feeling reassured.
"Leader, after joining the sect, we should find him a strict mentor," Liu Zixiao suggested.
"Why?"
Su Xihe was puzzled.
"I observed Qin Yu is perhaps overly indulgent in beauty..."
Liu Zixiao explained the events she saw, expressing her own judgment.
Given Qin Yu’s Root Bone and talent, how could he be just at Qi Refining Fifth Layer at thirty?!
This is absurd!
Unless he was delayed by some matter in his cultivation.
Liu Zixiao felt indulgence in beauty was indeed a major factor!
Whether in the Immortal Sect or in Loose Cultivator City, few cultivators at around thirty have four Dao Companions.
Even if they do, it’s because they feel their talent is inadequate and thus marry for enjoyment.
"Aunt-in-law? Master’s wife? Also his Dao Companions?!"
Su Xihe was taken aback momentarily.
This fellow, does he even clash with his master’s wife?!
"And let me tell you, his master’s wife has quite a close relationship with one of his Dao Companions..."
The relationship between Yin Qinghe and Zhao Mengli in Lin Xian City was no secret, even listed in information, so Liu Zixiao naturally knew. Hence, she was so shocked seeing Yin Qinghe too follow Qin Yu inside.
"Liu Zixiao, what kind of nonsense are you engrossed in?!"
The Sect Leader’s reprimand came quickly, frowning slightly and saying, "Do not overly interfere in his private matters."
Yet, at the same time, Su Xihe sincerely agreed that Qin Yu must be assigned a strict mentor!
Knowing Qin Yu’s talent, the choice of mentor must be careful, and at least should be at the elder level.
Whom to choose?
As she filtered through, she surprisingly found no suitable candidates.
Because of insufficient influence, only Liu Zixiao, among the elders, firmly stood by her side, others having their own agendas. If Qin Yu was sent to them...
Su Xihe’s brow furrowed deeper.
Liu Zixiao?
With that thought, she asked, "How about you supervise Qin Yu? After all, among the elders, you’re the one most involved with him..."
