Chapter 198: Chapter 196: What Kind of Improper Thing Is This
How could Qin Yu know that the Jade Token given to him by Liu Zixiao was a token of Elder status, and that’s why he could browse all the books without obstruction?
Furthermore, Qin Yu was completely unaware that all the books he read with Liu Zixiao’s token would be recorded!
Once he left.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zixiao quietly returned to the Library Pavilion.
She wanted to see what books this disciple had read with her token, so she could better guide him in the future.
After all, words often fail to fully express those insights that can only be understood but not conveyed.
Such as understanding Sword Intent.
Or the comprehension of Runes.
Things like these.
These all require the seeker to touch and feel deeply, only then can they grasp the true essence.
If not, then why would there be any need for a teacher’s guidance?
Upon entering the Library Pavilion, Liu Zixiao walked gracefully between the bookshelves.
She quickly found the first one.
It was about Root Bone and Realm.
It seemed that Qin Yu’s words were not false, he indeed wanted to understand these things.
After all, originating from Lin Xian City, many things are not accessible in Loose Cultivator City.
In addition, there were some strange records.
This further deepened Liu Zixiao’s understanding of him and made her decide to discuss it more thoroughly with him the next day.
After skimming through, she was about to leave, but then noticed there were many more in the token’s records.
So she walked over.
This position was quite secluded.
Books were covered in dust; no one seemed to have browsed them for a long time.
But on the books Qin Yu had read, the marks were very obvious, and even fingerprints could be seen.
Liu Zixiao’s gaze swept across those books.
The book titles didn’t reveal much, moreover, they were all named quite elegantly.
Soon, her gaze lingered on "Ten Great Grotto Heaven Secret Records."
Because it’s the only one on the whole shelf without any dust, indicating that Qin Yu examined this book most closely.
"Ten Great Grotto Heavens? What is that, special cave mansions?"
A hint of confusion flashed in Liu Zixiao’s eyes.
As an Immortal Sect Elder, she hadn’t heard of such "Grotto Heavens."
Her curiosity aroused, she picked up the "Ten Great Grotto Heaven Secret Records."
As she read the first page, suddenly, her eyes widened and she felt an overwhelming shame and anger.
"How preposterous, who wrote this?!"
She nearly threw the book.
What chaos is all this nonsense?
Just as she was about to unleash Spiritual Power, she restrained herself.
After all, it’s a part of the Library Pavilion, destroying it wouldn’t be appropriate.
As she was about to put it down, she mysteriously felt a thread of curiosity.
Primarily, she was pondering why Qin Yu would read this book.
Could it be that this thing is beneficial for cultivation?!
As a half-mentor, she felt it necessary to understand her disciple.
Moreover, since she had already glanced at it, why not take a closer look.
She casually flipped through a few pages.
"Pretentious old nonsense, nothing but a sham..."
Her words carried a bit of disdain, even her breath emitted a faint yet clear sneer, but it abruptly stopped.
Snap!
The book suddenly closed, Liu Zixiao’s eyes widened, an incredulous look spreading across her face.
The description about the Innate White Jade Sacred Body in the book was exactly the same as her dear friend Su Xihe!
Exactly identical!
Since they often bathed in the hot springs together, they naturally understood each other somewhat.
The main reason being that the Sect Leader is indeed extraordinary.
Once seen, it’s impossible to forget.
"What’s he doing reading this book, surely not..."
Liu Zixiao quickly shook her head.
Impossible, the Sect Leader’s secret was only known to her by chance, even she, who was close as a sister.
How could Qin Yu know?
And besides, it’s not the only one recorded here.
Fueled by curiosity, Liu Zixiao continued to scrutinize the book.
She also wanted to know more about her dear friend.
If Qin Yu doesn’t know, could it possibly...
Heh!
Even tricking herself.
Seems the Sect Leader is completely unaware of how much attraction she holds in her disciple’s eyes.
"This supposed Sacred Body, is it really that mystical, even mentioned as Soul Severing, truly exaggerated, and in some aspect known as the First Sacred Body..."
Already being the top beauty.
And now, this.
Adding something as in some sense the First Sacred Body.
I believe, once the Sect Leader finds out, she might...
Be quite surprised?!
After carefully examining that page, Liu Zixiao casually flipped through the rest, pondering somewhat, then stored the book into her Storage Ring.
Subsequently.
She picked up a book titled "Dragon and Phoenix."
Bah!
Without reading the other books, Liu Zixiao hurriedly left the Library Pavilion.
Good heavens!
She thought he genuinely came to learn, but instead, he was reading such frivolous books.
What good comes from learning these?
Isn’t this wasting time?
Liu Zixiao sighed lightly.
She felt that Qin Yu might not yet have aligned his heart with Cyan Mountain Sect.
If not, why not think about how to cultivate in such a pressing situation?
Although she secretly plotted, coaxing the Sect Leader, she was quite aware, her good friend wouldn’t agree.
It was just lighthearted teasing between them.
The path of cultivation is already long and monotonous, tedious and dull.
It’s precisely because of this that the Sect Leader indulges in novels, seeking moments of solace and joy.
As she stood outside the Library Pavilion, suddenly, Liu Zixiao saw a white shadow gracefully descend from the main peak, landing in a cave mansion.
The speed was so fast, like a fleeting glimpse.
If she weren’t a Golden Core Cultivator with keen eyesight, she wouldn’t have been able to capture that fleeting moment.
"Is that... Xiyue?"
Surprise flashed in Liu Zixiao’s eyes, whispering softly, "Why is she out at this time..."
Wait.
Seems.
It could be.
Just now the direction Su Xiyue went... is Qin Yu’s cave mansion?!
Could she be looking for Qin Yu for something?
It’s not that the Saintess can’t engage with other Immortal Sect disciples, but Su Xiyue has always been aloof and proud, so much so that even Liu Zixiao and Su Xihe, must go to the Saintess Cave Mansion to see her.
Her outings are rare.
And now, it’s already late at night, what is she doing at Qin Yu’s cave mansion?!
Suddenly, it was like a flash in Liu Zixiao’s mind, her eyes opened wide, filled with disbelief.
Could it be...
She recalled various anomalies of Su Xiyue in Lin Xian City, already having slight suspicions back then.
She just thought it improbable.
But now...
It was as if clues were found, gradually connecting, becoming clear.
Going out at night, returning with a hoarse throat the next day.
No way?!
Liu Zixiao still hesitated to conclude, thus stood beneath the mountain waiting.
An hour passed.
Two hours passed...
Until the sky turned slightly pale, Su Xiyue, with a touch of fatigue, came out of Qin Yu’s cave mansion, quietly returned to the Saintess Cave Mansion.
