Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu were strangers to the Cold Moon Sect. However, as Qin Yulu was wearing the sect's disciple robe, they could go anywhere without hindrance.
That afternoon, Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu happily explored every corner of the Cold Moon Sect. It could be said that this was the happiest Qin Yulu had ever been, and of course, this wasn't just because of Ye Xiao, but also because she had found her biological mother.
"Ye Xiao, thank you!" Qin Yulu said, looking at Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao, at this moment, was gazing at the lush green forest and said, "What's the matter?"
"Actually, I wasn't confident you would come to the Cold Moon Sect," Qin Yulu said.
Ye Xiao replied, "Why do you say that?"
"You have so many girls who like you, and I, I'm just the most ordinary one," Qin Yulu said, lowering her head and staring at her feet, her fingers intertwined and fiddling with each other.
Ye Xiao turned his head to look at Qin Yulu, chuckled, and said, "Who told you that you're the most ordinary? Honestly speaking, I don't just like one person, maybe I was born a scoundrel."
"No!" Qin Yulu replied, "That's... that's your charm."
"Hehe, I'm not a woman, what charm could I have?" Ye Xiao said.
Qin Yulu said nothing more.
Ye Xiao's eyes were on the distant view, uncertain when he might settle down. However, the day he truly settles down might also be the most difficult day for him.
This is undoubtedly true.
If that day ever comes, Ye Xiao would definitely be the most conflicted person in the world.
"There you are," a voice came, interrupting Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu's solitude.
Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu turned to look, and it was Liuyun Bing.
In fact, neither Ye Xiao nor Qin Yulu had a good impression of Liuyun Bing. However, Liuyun Bing had previously apologized sincerely at the Cold Moon Hall for hurting Qin Yulu.
Ye Xiao ignored Liuyun Bing directly. However, Qin Yulu, perhaps out of respect for her mother, asked, "What's the matter?"
Liuyun Bing didn't mind Ye Xiao's attitude. After all, Ye Xiao had always treated her poorly.
Liuyun Bing said, "The Sect Master asks you to return; there's something to say."
Hearing that Han Qinghe wanted them to return, Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu immediately followed Liuyun Bing back.
On the way!
"Yulu, I'm truly sorry. If I had known it was you, I would never have…" Liuyun Bing was evidently still embarrassed about previously injuring Qin Yulu and clearly wanted to become closer to her, since Qin Yulu was Han Qinghe's biological daughter.
Hearing Liuyun Bing's words, Qin Yulu quickly and somewhat embarrassedly replied, "It's okay now, isn't it? Liu…"
Qin Yulu stopped midway and didn't know what to say. She initially wanted to call Liuyun Bing "Aunt," but hesitated since calling her "Aunt" wasn't right here; this was an ancient martial arts sect where specific titles were expected.
Walking beside Qin Yulu, Ye Xiao clearly grasped what Qin Yulu was trying to express and quickly said, "Liuyun Bing is your mother's peer, and since you're going to apprentice under your mother, she should be considered your Shishu (Master's junior sister)."
Shishu?
When Qin Yulu heard this term, it felt a bit awkward to her. How could you call a woman "Shishu" (Uncle)? Although she'd seen such scenarios in period dramas, actually addressing someone this way made her feel shy.
Liuyun Bing said, "No need to rush. After Yulu completes her apprenticeship, we can discuss it. Let's hurry to Cold Moon Hall."
Due to Liuyun Bing's words, Qin Yulu didn't call her anything and hurried with Ye Xiao and Liuyun Bing to the Cold Moon Hall.
By this time, it was already evening.
"Senior (Mother)!" Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu entered Cold Moon Hall. Seeing only Han Qinghe there, they immediately greeted her.
Han Qinghe looked at the two of them, but for some reason, her gaze first fell on Ye Xiao.
"Have a seat!" Han Qinghe said.
Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu took their seats.
At this moment, Han Qinghe continued, "Yulu, from today onward, address me as Master."
Hearing Han Qinghe's words, Qin Yulu paused, then nodded in agreement.
Han Qinghe looked at Ye Xiao again and said, "Ye Xiao, stay here for the night tonight, and leave early tomorrow morning."
"Master!" Qin Yulu immediately stood up and said to Han Qinghe, "Let Ye Xiao stay until tomorrow afternoon..."
"Sit down!" Han Qinghe looked at Qin Yulu.
Qin Yulu immediately sat down slowly.
At this moment, Ye Xiao smiled and said to Qin Yulu, "Lulu, it's not like I'm not coming back, and besides, aren't we staying here for the night?"
Han Qinghe continued to look at Ye Xiao and said, "Ye Xiao, I have a disciple under my sect whose skills are decent but has never truly gone out to train. This time, when you return, let him go with you."
Hearing Han Qinghe's words, Ye Xiao immediately gave a wry smile. What does this mean? Did he just find me a little brother?
Ye Xiao said, "Senior, are you trying to find me a little brother?"
"Consider it so." Han Qinghe said.
Ye Xiao didn't expect Han Qinghe to be so straightforward, actually finding him a little brother.
Ye Xiao couldn't believe such a good thing would happen, so he immediately looked at Han Qinghe and said, "Senior, I already have plenty of little brothers, so I don't need another."
"Those who come out of my sect are all talented martial artists, don't you want one?" Han Qinghe smiled at Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao couldn't help but chuckle and said, "What does that have to do with me? If I say no, then it's no."
"You have quite a temper!" Han Qinghe said, "Can't you do it for Yulu's sake?"
Ye Xiao hadn't expected Han Qinghe to bring up Qin Yulu. He looked at Qin Yulu, thinking it seemed he had no choice but to agree. Soon, he'd be separated from Yulu, and just for the sake of this long-time longing, he'd have to find a female disciple to go with him.
"Alright, I'll definitely do it for Yulu's sake, but you better think it through — if the little brother you give me is too beautiful, my self-control is quite poor. Yulu knows this." Ye Xiao said frankly.
Han Qinghe, hearing Ye Xiao's words, really felt an urge to whip him. Is this how one talks to a future mother-in-law?
However, Han Qinghe didn't say much further, then said, "Come out."
At this point, Gu Yunmei walked over from the side.
Upon seeing this, Ye Xiao immediately looked at Han Qinghe and said, "Senior Han, Senior Gu is already a senior, how can you let her be my little brother? Isn't this a bit improper?"
Gu Yunmei rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao upon hearing his words and said, "What are you thinking, kid? Who's going to be your little brother, it's not me who's going out to train with you, it's my disciple."
Only then did Ye Xiao feel relieved. Although Gu Yunmei was quite beautiful, no matter how beautiful she was, time spared no one. However, it's often said that like master, like disciple; since Gu Yunmei was good-looking, her disciple must also be quite exceptional.
Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Senior Gu, please forgive my rudeness. Quickly bring out your female disciple, let me have a look."
"What female disciple?" Gu Yunmei said immediately upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, "One moment."
Gu Yunmei said this and directly walked to the entrance of Cold Moon Hall, waved outside, and then returned to Cold Moon Hall.
Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu exchanged glances, feeling very puzzled, not knowing what Gu Yunmei was up to.
At this moment, a person walked over from outside, and it was certain that this was definitely not a female disciple. It was even more certain that Ye Xiao had a grudge with this person.
"Wangg Chongming?" Ye Xiao was secretly shocked when he saw the person at the entrance of Cold Moon Hall. Could it be that this little brother for him was actually him?
"Chongming greets the Sect Master and Master!" Wangg Chongming walked into Cold Moon Hall and very courteously bowed to Han Qinghe and Gu Yunmei, speaking.
Han Qinghe looked at Wangg Chongming and said, "Chongming, from now on, you will resume your secular name, and henceforth there will be no more Wangg Chongming."
Wangg Chongming, apparently having known about these matters, did not show surprise upon hearing Han Qinghe's words. Instead, he bowed again and said, "Yes!"
Han Qinghe continued, "Your master has already discussed this with you, right?"
Wangg Chongming nodded and said, "Yes."
Han Qinghe then looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Ye Xiao, this is the disciple I selected for you from our sect. You've fought him, so you should know his abilities."
Ye Xiao glanced at Wangg Chongming and then looked back at Han Qinghe, saying, "Senior Han, I cannot accept your commission. It's reasonable if you let me take a female disciple out, but you want me to take him? Who is the sidekick here? What a joke; am I supposed to never pick up girls again?"
"Ye Xiao!" Qin Yulu heard Ye Xiao speaking so bluntly again and quickly called out to him in a low voice.
But Ye Xiao seemed not to hear her.
However, just at this moment, Wangg Chongming did something that took Ye Xiao by surprise. A strong force of Inner Power True Qi condensed in his hand, slowly moving towards his own face.
"Brother Wangg, what do you mean by this?"
Wangg Chongming said plainly, "Since Brother Ye thinks my appearance should not be this way, I'll destroy it. To be honest, I don't want to follow you out, but the mission must be fulfilled, and since I was raised by my master from a young age, I cannot go against his wishes."
"Your meaning is, even though you don't want to go with me, you still will. If I dislike your appearance, you'll ruin your looks. You should know that once this appearance is ruined, it will be truly ruined." Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow and said to Wangg Chongming.
