Baili Qiushui: My Good Disciple, Don't Do This to Your Master?!

This was Liu Yaoyao's first time entering the forbidden area.

She had heard rumors before that a forbidden area had been suddenly designated within the sect, supposedly containing some secrets.

Several sect elders who were acquainted with her father, Liu Yifeng, rarely appeared in public after obtaining the quota to enter the forbidden area.

Even when the other party's disciples inquired about the reason, they remained completely silent.

Liu Yaoyao was naturally quite curious about the situation inside the forbidden area.

However, she heard that her father had also obtained a spot inside the forbidden area, and they could enter once he broke through his seclusion.

She originally thought that she would probably have to wait until her father came out of seclusion before she could have any hope of getting in and seeing him, thanks to his connections.

Unexpectedly, before her father could take her inside, she became Young Master Lu's personal maid and was led inside by Young Master Lu.

After passing through the light patterns of the Reverse-Chaos Sword Gang Bewilderment Formation, Liu Yaoyao's gaze swept across the distance and was quickly drawn to a dense, almost tangible white mist.

That mist was unlike any other mountain mist; it was thick and solid, gleaming with a faint milky white sheen in the morning light, obscuring the continuous mountain peaks behind it.

Jiang Shiqing noticed Liu Yaoyao's gaze and explained with a smile, "That's the real forbidden area; the outer area is the normal area."

Liu Yaoyao was taken aback, turning her head slightly in confusion. "Normal area? Isn't the fog inside normal?"

What's the difference between normal and abnormal areas?

Is that area with the dense fog the abnormal area?

Why is it abnormal?

Liu Yaoyao was somewhat puzzled.

Jiang Shiqing smiled mysteriously, not answering directly, but simply blinking. "You'll find out soon enough."

Liu Yaoyao's pretty face darkened; she hated riddle tellers the most.

However, the riddle teller is her half-sister.

Okay, that's all for now.

Just then, a whooshing sound came from the sky.

Three streaks of light flashed across the sky from a short distance away, flying off in another direction.

However, after flying a short distance, the three streaks of light suddenly stopped, changed direction, and flew back towards their location.

The rainbow light was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye it landed in front of the three of them.

The light faded, revealing three figures.

Lu Yang recognized two of them; they were Su Jinxuan and Baili Qiushui.

Today, Su Jinxuan wore a light gold, narrow-sleeved long dress with simple phoenix feather patterns embroidered on it in dark gold thread, and a soft armor belt of the same color around her waist.

Her long, jet-black hair was pulled up high with a red-gold hairpin, revealing her beautifully sculpted yet sharp jawline.

Her cold and noble face still carried the majesty of someone who had long held a high position, but the moment she saw Lu Yang, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

Baili Qiushui wore a loose-fitting, moon-white Daoist robe with wide sleeves and several array patterns embroidered in silver thread on the lapels.

She exuded a strong scholarly aura, and standing there, she possessed a gentle and serene demeanor.

If she were dressed in modern clothes, she would probably look like a young female professor at a top university.

Behind Baili Qiushui, there was another woman, also dressed in a moon-white Daoist robe, huddled up.

The woman was slender, with black hair cascading over her shoulders, appearing somewhat unkempt and messy.

Despite being at the Early Golden Core realm, she hunched her shoulders, lowered her head, and tightly gripped the corner of Baili Qiushui's Daoist robe with one hand, as if she wished she could hide herself in her master's shadow.

Lu Yang couldn't help but take another look at the female cultivator.

A normal Golden Core Realm cultivator is considered to be of mid-to-high level combat power in the entire Eastern Domain. Even in a top-tier force like the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, they would be an elder-level figure with high position and great power.

Which Golden Core Realm cultivator isn't composed, confident, and exuding an air of self-assurance?

There's even Golden Core Realm who looks like someone with social anxiety?

How does someone with social anxiety cultivate themselves to the Golden Core Realm?

Lu Yang was somewhat puzzled.

Su Jinxuan smiled and said, "Young Master Lu, I didn't expect to meet you here."

As she spoke, her gaze inadvertently swept over Jiang Shiqing and Liu Yaoyao behind Lu Yang.

She naturally recognized Jiang Shiqing; she was Young Master Young Master Lu's personal maid and had seen her many times before.

However, she wasn't quite sure about the other female cultivator.

I hadn't seen her before, even on Young Master Lu's mountain peak.

Young Master Lu's new love interest?

Are you a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect?

Knowing Lu Yang's tendency to become unable to resist beautiful female cultivators, Su Jinxuan wasn't surprised at all that a new pretty female cultivator had appeared by his side.

While Su Jinxuan was pondering, Jiang Shiqing secretly transmitted her Sound Dao to Liu Yaoyao: "This is Su Jinxuan, the Supreme Elder of our Golden Rainbow Sword Sect. Beside her is Senior Baili, the Formation Dao Master invited by the Mystic Mystery Palace. Both of them are True Lord in the Nascent Soul Realm stage! Also, the female cultivator behind her is probably Senior Baili's disciple. I heard she's rather introverted, but I didn't expect her to be this introverted."

Upon hearing Jiang Shiqing's telepathic message, Liu Yaoyao's pupils contracted slightly, and a storm of emotions surged within her.

Liu Yaoyao had naturally heard of Su Jinxuan, after all, she was the Supreme Elder of their Golden Rainbow Sword Sect.

However, as a mere inner disciple, even with the identity of Liu Yifeng's daughter, she could not possibly meet the sect's supreme elder!

I never expected to see him here!

Elder Su Jinxuan is so beautiful... Her cold and noble temperament inspires awe in everyone.

Moreover... there was actually a female cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm stage beside her!

Is there any hope for her to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm in the future?

Liu Yaoyao was filled with envy.

She was aware of her own talent; without a particularly strong fortuitous opportunity, breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

But...

I am now the young master's personal maid.

If she serves the young master well, he might be pleased and give her all sorts of resources, just like he did for Shiqing.

By then, reaching the Nascent Soul Realm might not be out of the question.

Thinking of this, Liu Yaoyao was filled with anticipation.

While Liu Yaoyao lost in thought, Baili Qiushui also cupped her hands in greeting to Lu Yang, her pretty face showing respect, and said politely, "Baili Qiushui greets Young Master Lu."

As she spoke, she paused, then slightly turned her body to the side, trying to reveal the person behind her.

The female cultivator behind him realized Baili Qiushui's intention and immediately shrank back, trembling with fear.

Baili Qiushui's face darkened, showing a hint of disappointment. He secretly transmitted his Sound Dao, "Mingyue! This young master is different from ordinary cultivators. You must show him respect! Given his status, if we anger him, neither of us, master and disciple, will escape unscathed! It might even implicate our sect."

Baili Mingyue stiffened and abandoned her idea of shrinking back any further.

She swallowed hard, as if she had made a tremendous decision, and for the first time slowly raised her head to look at Lu Yang.

This was also the first time she had seen Lu Yang. When that handsome face came into view, Baili Mingyue froze on the spot.

A hint of indescribable amazement flashed in her eyes, her fair cheeks instantly turned bright red, and her mouth opened slightly, as if she had forgotten to speak.

As Baili Mingyue looked up, Lu Yang, Jiang Shiqing, and Liu Yaoyao were able to see the true face of the female cultivator who had been keeping her head down.

It must be said that Baili Mingyue is quite beautiful. She has a standard oval face with soft and gentle lines, and her skin is as white as snow, shimmering with an almost transparent glow in the morning light.

Her eyes were large, with dark and deep pupils that gave her an adorable yet captivating look, as if they could draw your gaze in.

A small black mole at the corner of her eye added a touch of lively charm to her originally soft and innocent face.

This gives her a rather contradictory aura, both innocent and charming, both obedient and alluring, with two completely different styles wonderfully blended on the same face.

As Baili Mingyue looked up, a panel immediately appeared in front of Lu Yang.

[Found an 11-point beauty!]

Really...

When Lu Yang saw Baili Mingyue's appearance, he felt that she definitely met the system's standards for a beautiful woman, which showed that his aesthetic sense was not wrong after all.

System authentication!

But... what exactly is the situation with this female cultivator?

She just stared at him without saying a word.

And... this has been going on for way too long!

Lu Yang inexplicably felt like he was being watched, and a chill ran down his spine.

Even if he's a man, he wouldn't stare at a beautiful woman like that.

He knows he's very handsome now; after all, his charm is undeniable.

But he was the first female cultivator to be so bold as to stare at him directly.

She's a bit like a lovesick woman.

Jiang Shiqing and Liu Yaoyao also noticed something was wrong.

This female cultivator, who looks both innocent and alluring, is staring at her young master way too intently!

The two exchanged a glance, a strange look appearing in their eyes.

Su Jinxuan noticed the unusual situation behind her and turned around in confusion. She saw Baili Mingyue's pretty face flushed red as she stared intently at Lu Yang. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and the corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily.

She and Baili Qiushui had a very good relationship, and she had met Baili Mingyue many times over the years.

This was the first time she had seen Baili Mingyue like this.

The Baili Mingyue she had seen before would never stare at anyone, let alone look at them directly. Even a single glance would send her scurrying back behind her master like a startled rabbit.

Is this... puberty?

Baili Qiushui was filled with questions, feeling as if his brain was buzzing.

No, my dear disciple, please don't mess with your master!

This person is no ordinary person!

This is a noble young master who can easily alter the concentration of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, possesses a large group of the Nascent Soul Realm servants, and travels in Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure -level flying Law Treasure!

If you keep staring at that young master like that, and he gets angry, my master and I might really be in deep trouble!

Besides... can't you have at least a little bit of womanly modesty?!

Although Young Master Lu is indeed exceptionally handsome, like a celestial being descended to earth, don't look like you're drooling!

How can I possibly save face?!

Baili Qiushui felt a chill in his heart.

"Gurgle..."

Just then, Baili Mingyue's fair throat bobbed slightly, and the sound of her swallowing was quite clear in the quiet environment.

Baili Qiushui: "????"

Her already slightly chilled heart died instantly at that moment.

She felt that the dignity she had accumulated over hundreds of years had been completely lost in that instant by her good disciple.
