Emotionless Little Dragon Man

The next morning, Qin Yi and his wife went to set up the formation in high spirits, but Li Wuxian, who usually came to pay his respects early in the morning, did not come this time.

As Qin Yi set up the formation, he felt a little uneasy. "Why isn't Wu Xian here today?"

"I don't know. He's the emperor, he has a lot to do. It's normal for him not to come or not." Li Qingjun was full of satisfied pleasure, stretching and saying, "I'll take Tao Tao out for a stroll."

Qin Yi nodded. Li Qingjun's wandering around wasn't just for fun; she was looking for a chance to spot the enemy.

Not long after Li Qingjun left, Li Wuxian appeared.

Good morning, Master.

Qin Yi casually replied, "Good morning."

Li Wuxian swaggered over, hands behind her back, and peered curiously at Qin Yi squatting on the ground planting a flag. "Isn't Auntie here?"

His expression didn't seem like he was watching the flags being planted and the formation being set up; it was more like he was secretly observing Qin Yi's profile.

They were very careful.

Qin Yi turned his head and looked at her, finding her appearance rather cute. He wondered what she was doing and chuckled, "Isn't it court time? Did you oversleep today?"

"Uh, there's no court session today." Li Wuxian was embarrassed to say that she had been reading her master's book all night and had only just finished reading it, which directly led to her not attending the Morning Court.

If Cheng Cheng were here, she would marvel at how terrifying the wicked concubine of this chaotic era was; she had already brought chaos to the emperor without even lifting a finger...

"Oh, Xiu Chao, then sit here and play. Your master has set up the array nodes and will keep you company... This kind of array is a bit complicated." Qin Yi had no idea what his disciple, who had been perfectly normal just a few days ago, was thinking now, so he didn't take it to heart and busied himself setting up the array.

Li Wuxian sat on the artificial rock next to him, resting her chin on her hand as she watched Qin Yi get up and perform the spell.

The earth's veins flowed, the magic of time guided them, the Array Flag fluttered, Spiritual Qi swirled, and space seemed to twist and intertwine, past and future no longer intertwined.

This is the signature formation of Sakya Monastery, recreated by Qin Yi; the scene is beautiful and dreamlike.

He's also very handsome.

He wore a flowing blue robe, and was as handsome as an immortal. Although he was in the Imperial Palace, it felt like he lived in a secluded world.

Actually, Master looks a bit like Yang Guo, the character he described in his novel.

Li Wuxian felt that he had learned a very important life lesson from the book: it is only natural for a disciple to seek a master.

Yes, this is what Master advocated!

You must listen to what your master says.

At that time, in the illusion created by the Western Regions monk, the male protagonist's mosaic face gradually became clear.

That's my master.

If I were that female protagonist, only my master would go through hardships to protect and save me, just like in the illusion, from beginning to end. Isn't what happened in the illusion a manifestation of my own mind?

That's exactly how it is, the girl was certain.

So the girl leaned against her master, her face flushed, and her master looked at her tenderly, embracing her gently.

Li Wuxian's mind wandered, her face growing increasingly red. She appeared to be watching Qin Yi's formation with her chin resting on her hand, but her thoughts were actually elsewhere.

If Qin Yi knew what this little rascal was thinking, he would probably pack his things and run away immediately.

He honestly never thought of such a thing.

After setting up the array node, Qin Yi let out a slight sigh of relief. He turned to look at his little apprentice, who was sitting there lost in thought, chin in hand. He had thought she was facing some difficult problem in governing the country...

Suddenly, a large hand appeared in front of Li Wuxian, waving it. "Hey."

The girl shuddered, snapping out of her daze to find the scene she had imagined was gone; she wasn't leaning against her master at all. Her master was standing right in front of her, shaking her hand. "What important thing are you thinking about? National affairs?"

"Uh... uh." Li Wuxian rubbed her face; it was so hot.

"It's nothing, Master. I was just lost in thought for a moment." She stood up and said with a forced smile, "Master, you've worked hard. Would you like to sit down for a while?"

Qin Yi gave her a strange look, but didn't hesitate and sat down. Setting up such an array consumes Law Power, and he needed to meditate to recover, which is why he estimated the total time would be three days.

Li Wuxian stood behind him and said very sensibly, "Master, setting up the formation must have been hard work. Shall I give you a shoulder massage?"

"Huh?" Qin Yi laughed. "Not bad, I've never enjoyed this kind of master benefit before."

Li Wuxian indeed stretched out her slender hand and gently massaged his shoulder.

Actually, he didn't feel much while being massaged. Qin Yi was Martial Cultivation, and his body was too strong. Li Wuxian didn't cultivate martial arts, and his Law Power hadn't reached the point of being materialized. Massaging him was like massaging steel; there was absolutely no reaction. However, Qin Yi was still quite pleased. A generation of emperors was giving him a shoulder massage. Did other Imperial Tutor receive this treatment?

Excellent, excellent. This is the benefit of starting from a young age; this is the treatment of a true master, not some superficial "Imperial Tutor" from another institution.

Thinking about this, Qin Yi realized that he had only been thinking about fulfilling his responsibilities as a master, without considering enjoying the privileges of being one. According to the rules of both the mortal martial arts world and the cultivation world, a master is indeed like a father, able to order his disciple around as he pleases...

However, he was very lucky to have met Liusu and Ju Yunxiu, neither of whom had the airs of a master. So he simply put himself in their shoes and didn't put on airs either.

Senior Sister... I wonder how she is doing on the other side of the sea.

Qin Yi was lost in thought and didn't notice that his little apprentice was also lost in thought.

Her slender hands kneaded her shoulders. Men and women shouldn't touch each other, and Qin Yi, being an experienced man, didn't find anything amiss at all. He didn't even consider what the young girl was thinking.

It felt like being electrocuted; my heart was pounding faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of my throat.

So he became weaker and weaker, until eventually it was almost indistinguishable from being stroked.

There was indeed a hint of caressing in it. The girl was very curious about this kind of thing and was tentatively trying it out, but she didn't dare to show it, just like a little Rabbit.

Qin Yi even felt a little itchy, so he laughed and said, "Out of energy? I think you might need to learn some martial arts. This delicate girl is a bit unbalanced. She's my disciple, and also Qing Jun's niece. It wouldn't feel right if she didn't learn some martial arts."

Li Wuxian thought to himself, "This plot isn't right. My master seems to be obsessed with teaching his disciples, which is different from what he writes... Oh right, in the book, Little Dragon Girl also started out as a disciple teacher. Little Dragon Girl is a clueless blockhead, is my master the same?"

Her mind raced with random thoughts as she absentmindedly replied, "I'll do whatever Master says."

"Then come to the front," Qin Yi said. "I'll observe your musculoskeletal characteristics and customize a Body Tempering Fluid for you. This will be much simpler than training on your own; consider it a shortcut."

This is so serious...

Li Wuxian dawdled around to the front, and Qin Yi carefully examined her before praising, "I knew your Li family's Root Bone couldn't possibly be without martial arts training. Young lady, your physique is extraordinary; the responsibility of saving the world is entrusted to you."

Qin Yi was joking, but Li Wuxian didn't find it funny at all. Standing in front of her master and being scrutinized so intently made her feel extremely ashamed, and her heart started beating even faster.

This may be the first time she has felt shame since she began to awaken her spiritual awareness of the world and embark on the path of conquest.

The young dragon man in front of him seemed oblivious, still talking about Root Bone talent.

Qin Yi lowered his head and took out paper and pen from his ring, saying, "I don't have any low-grade medicinal herbs here, but it's too easy for you to get them. I'll make a list for you, and you can have someone prepare them..."

Li Wuxian's eyes darted around, and suddenly she cried out "Ouch!" and fell into Qin Yi's arms.

Qin Yi instinctively hugged her tightly; the fragrance was refreshing, but he didn't react much, simply helping her to steady herself. "What's wrong?"

A hint of annoyance flashed in Li Wuxian's eyes as she muttered, "It's nothing, I just twisted my ankle accidentally."

"You seem a bit strange today." Qin Yi quickly wrote down a form, "Go ahead, I'm going to meditate for a while."

Li Wuxian took the order and saw that Qin Yi had already closed his eyes to meditate, his eyes filled with regret.

There are things I don't understand, and I don't know how to do them. My master should know them, and he has a lot of beautiful women around him. He should know them better than anyone else. So how did he become an Emotionless Little Dragon Man?

Yes, in his heart she really was just a disciple, the daughter of an old friend, and the nephew of Qing Jun. He never thought about those things.

Li Wuxian lowered her head and took a few steps, then turned to look at her master's back and sighed softly.

The girl suddenly felt that she had grown up.
