Qin Yuzhi's Wonderful Journey, Part One: A Crooked Beam Makes the Rafters Crooked

"Little Bing's dream is truly extraordinary."

"Even ordinary dreamers probably couldn't get in..."

Qin Yuzhi's figure rapidly blurred and shrank, silently establishing a connection with the dreamlike bubble from Ying Bing.

Based on her past experience, she judged that most people are in a relatively relaxed state while sleeping, so the bubbles are relatively soft.

Ying Bing's was different.

Her bubble seemed to be encased in an unyielding, ancient ice, but this was no challenge for our experienced Master Qin.

Instead of "intrude," try "integrate," become part of the dream...

Buzz--

With a soft sound, Qin Yuzhi was embraced by the dreamlike bubble. The dream barrier before her, which resembled ripples on water, disappeared as if on water, and everything before her began to become clear.

Where is this?

Frost fell from the sky, obscuring the sunlight.

All Qin Yuzhi could see were rolling mountains shrouded in mist, yet even whiter than the mist itself, with vegetation that was crystal clear, like jade.

She seemed to have just stepped out of a cold, desolate pavilion in the snow.

"Even winters in North Seal aren't this cold..."

Qin Yuzhi shivered, feeling a coldness that came not only from her body.

"Our Cassia Palace is like this all year round; there is no winter."

A female disciple in a white dress looked at Qin Yuzhi strangely.

"Cassia Palace?"

Qin Yuzhi had never heard of this power. Could it have been created after she fell into a deep sleep?

However, Little Bing is a disciple of the Clear Abyss Sect, so how could she dream of this so-called Cassia Palace...?

Do you know Ying Bing?

"Junior sister, did something go wrong with your training?"

The female disciple's expression immediately changed, and she quickly covered her mouth:

"How dare you address the Palace Master by his name so casually!"

"Palace Master?"

Qin Yuzhi was taken aback.

"That's right, our Palace Master is the Phoenix Heavenly Empress, who governs the Taiyin and the Divine Phoenix Dao, and is ranked first in the Nine Heavens. You're not a spy sent by the enemy sect, are you? You don't even know this?"

"???"

Qin Yuzhi's round eyes widened even more, and she froze on the spot.

Why would Little Bing have such a dream?

Well, given her talent, this doesn't seem like a pipe dream.

But...

"Hmm, you're probably not an undercover agent. An undercover agent wouldn't not know this."

The female disciple in white looked her up and down and then asked:

"Are you a newcomer to the palace?"

Qin Yuzhi nodded quickly. "That's right, that's right, Senior Sister, could you tell me what kind of person our Palace Master is?"

"The Palace Mistress... is ranked first among all beauties, and she is very beautiful."

The female disciple said earnestly.

"There's no need to mention something that everyone already knows..."

The other person looked around, then lowered their voice and said, "Well, how should I put it? She's very cold-hearted. Not only has she severed her own emotions and desires, but she also requires all disciples of the Cassia Palace to be pure of heart. You'd better be careful, when it comes to matters of the heart..."

"Absolutely not?" Qin Yuzhi frowned.

"We absolutely must not let the Palace Master find out."

"..."

Qin Yuzhi roughly understood.

Humans naturally experience emotions and desires; who among ordinary people can truly sever these emotional ties?

Therefore, in the Cassia Palace, there were actually quite a few disciples who were secretly engaged in romantic relationships... commonly known as having affairs.

Fortunately, the Palace Master spent his days with the cold moon, detached from worldly affairs, and single-mindedly pursued the ultimate path to enlightenment.

In summary...

Unparalleled strength, devoid of emotion.

"Has the influence of the Primal Phoenix Ancestral God... become so profound on her?"

Qin Yuzhi muttered to herself.

Legend has it that after the Nine-Colored Primal Phoenix returned from the Heavenly Realm, in order to be absolutely impartial and unbiased in handling matters of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, it imitated Heavenly Dao and created a supreme method of forgetting emotions.

If Little Bing really becomes like this in the future...

The day I become an immortal may be the day he returns!

The fact that I'm having these kinds of dreams now means I've already been significantly influenced by my past...

At this moment, the female disciple said again:

"Junior sister, I've told you so much, please do me a favor."

"What kind of help?" Qin Yuzhi asked.

"Junior Brother accidentally entered the Palace Master's bedroom and was discovered by the elders. He was punished by Shuling Cliff. It's too cold there. Could you go and bring him some food for me?"

"And who is this junior brother...?"

Qin Yuzhi took the food box and asked, puzzled.

"Li Mo, he's the only male disciple in our Cassia Palace. Moreover, he's gentle and kind, and many female disciples in the sect want to have an affair with him, but unfortunately, I don't like men."

"Um???"

Qin Yuzhi experienced her third mental breakdown.

Little Bing is the Empress, the Palace Master.

That kid is actually the junior brother?

Doesn't this make them master and apprentice?

What kind of crazy plot twist is this?!

It's a pity she hasn't read "The Overbearing Empress Falls in Love With Me." If she had read even a little bit, she wouldn't be so clueless now...

Carrying the food box, Qin Yuzhi hurried towards the Shuling Cliff, but before she got close, she realized something was wrong.

It seems someone else arrived before her.

She quickly downplayed her presence in the dream and observed from the shadows.

Through the jade-colored branches, she saw two figures standing in front of the cliff.

"You've come..."

In the dream, Little Li was still a teenager, seemingly no different from the person in the outside world.

Did you know I was coming?

Little Bing... no, now it should be called Big Ice Block.

Ying Bing had fully blossomed, her figure breathtaking. Her legs were so long that Qin Yuzhi had the illusion that they reached all the way to Ying Bing's waist...

But that aloof and divine aura remained unchanged; only the coldness and allure in his eyes and brows were now mixed together, creating a striking contrast.

What is she doing here?

Isn't she the mistress of the Cassia Palace now...?

The large Ice Block frowned, as if reprimanding:

"I told you not to sneak into the palace, and now you've run into the elder. If I don't punish you, how can I explain this to the others?"

Qin Yuzhi seemed to understand.

Oh, so you value this disciple and are reprimanding and educating him?

It's a bit strange, but it's not entirely unacceptable.

But Li Mo's next words left her petrified.

Li Mo: "But sister, I miss you so much."

"?"

Leader Qin leaned back slightly. What was he saying?

Is that how you speak to Phoenix Heavenly Empress?

If Ying Bing were affected by the Ruthless Path, wouldn't that be courting death?

But...

The large Ice Block lowered its eyes, and a blush seemed to rise on its frosty, jade-like face:

"I am too..."

"??"

Qin Yuzhi felt a chill run down her spine; she was saying something.

Does Phoenix Heavenly Empress ever speak to her disciples like that?

You call this being influenced by the ruthless path?

Your hair is loose, let me put it up for you.

"Um..."

So, Phoenix Heavenly Empress and her little disciple, Big Ice Block Sister, sat on her stinky little brother's lap in broad daylight.

Is it done?

"You... don't move, I'm afraid my toughest thing won't be my mouth anymore..."

"?????"

Qin Yuzhi was struck dumb. What are you two talking about?!

Is this conversation going to happen between the Empress and her disciple!?

They promised to sever all emotional ties and even forbid disciples from dating!

No wonder all the disciples are having affairs; this corrupt trend started from the very beginning!
