A Beginning Never So Wonderful

Tang Yu ran back to get the bedding and other items, spread them out on the floor, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Lying in bed, Qiu Xiaozhu was experiencing slight insomnia.

She hasn't slept in the same room with anyone for many years.

Looking at Tang Yu's peaceful sleeping face from beside the bed, Qiu Xiaozhu felt inexplicably at ease.

Just then, Tang Yu, who had been asleep, spoke with her eyes closed.

"Master, aren't you cold sleeping alone in bed? Should your disciple...?"

"It's not cold, get out!"

Just when Tang Yu was one step away from climbing into her master's bed to fulfill her filial duty.

Ye Qiu was sitting in his thatched hut, concentrating on his cultivation.

Today I saw how close my aunt and her apprentice were.

It made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

He even began to wonder if his aunt and Ling Jun had a normal master-disciple relationship; they were clearly being a little too intimate.

This is what frustrates him the most, if the two of them really are in that kind of relationship.

Call your aunt "Mom" yourself.

Doesn't that mean Ling Jun has become my adopted father?

Thinking about this mess, Ye Qiu shook his head, banishing these negative emotions from his mind.

Now is not the time to think about such trivial matters!

Having just broken through to the next realm, he still needs to consolidate his cultivation.

Reaching the Celestial Realm was a crucial part of his plan.

Having reached this point, his plan was more than half complete.

"There are only two things left: become an elder, and then take action during the ancestral worship ceremony."

After silently reciting a sentence in his mind, Ye Qiu's eyes were filled with unwavering determination.

After twenty years of humiliation and forbearance, the Ye Family is finally going to be revived under my leadership!

He was determined to fulfill this long-cherished wish, even at the cost of his own life and the utter destruction of his body!

The Ye Family must rise again! Make all those who bullied the Ye Family pay the price!

He just wanted to become an elder.

He still needs to participate in the inner disciple selection, but he has absolute confidence in himself.

Currently, among the inner disciples, only he and another guy named Qiu Duanshui are at the Celestial Realm.

In a battle between equals, he was absolutely confident of defeating this person!

For the next period of time, Ye Qiu continued to live a secluded life, spending almost all his time cultivating except for eating and sleeping.

The Second Elder was quite satisfied with his disciple's diligent cultivation.

And upon learning that he wanted to become an elder, he praised him even more.

Only by becoming an elder can one better contribute to the Nine Heavens Alliance.

At a time when their relationship as master and disciple was harmonious.

Tang Yu was also trying to find a way to achieve a great harmony in life with her master.

Cough, I'm not saying I'm lusting after Master's body or anything.

My main intention was simply to help her break through her limitations and to fulfill my filial duty.

"Master, good morning. It's raining outside today, and the temperature has suddenly dropped, so it's a bit chilly. Would you like your disciple to come up and warm you up?"

Early in the morning, Tang Yu rested her head on the edge of the bed, looked at Qiu Xiaozhu's sleeping face, and greeted her with a smile.

"You're so annoying, no, no, no!"

Qiu Xiaozhu had actually woken up a long time ago, but she just didn't want to get out of bed.

She let out a wail and stuck her foot in Tang Yu's face, trying to kick his head off the bed.

Ever since we let this guy sleep on the floor inside the house.

This guy is getting more and more demanding.

Every day, the same questions keep recurring: "Master, are you afraid to sleep alone at night?", "Master went to the hot springs again, do you need me to scrub your back?", "Master, are you planning to break through to a higher realm today? I'm all ready."

As for his innermost thoughts and feelings, they were even more unrestrained, often making her blush deeply as she listened.

She read a description in a romance novel: a captivating little devil.

In her eyes, this resentful disciple was a real pain in the neck.

What kind of ungrateful disciple is this, lusting after their master's body all the time?

"Master's feet are so cute, but they look like the meridians aren't quite clear. Let me massage them for you."

She saw her master's jade feet being stretched out.

Tang Yu caught it and skillfully began pressing it.

Qiu Xiaozhu originally wanted to break free.

But this guy's massage felt so good.

Thinking that it's better to enjoy it than to resist, Qiu Xiaozhu chose to extend her other leg as well.

After being pressed for a while, she realized that he had pressed down on her thigh. Suddenly alert, she sat up in bed and shouted.

"You unfilial disciple! Curb your arrogance! Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!"

"Does Master really know what I'm thinking?"

Tang Yu withdrew his hand and chuckled.

[I wasn't thinking anything, Master, have you misunderstood me?]

[I just want to help my master break through to the next level as soon as possible.]

What's wrong with a disciple being filial to his master?

"..."

Qiu Xiaozhu couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of spit. "Pah! This filial piety has long since gone bad!"

But over the past few days, she herself has noticed a problem.

Faced with this resentful disciple, her bottom line seemed to be slowly retreating step by step.

In the past, she had only been lifted up by this guy and had already punched him.

She's gotten used to him sticking to her all day long and doesn't even feel any resistance to it.

The only bottom line is that I won't let this guy into my bed.

But if this continues, she might give in one day after he pleads and begs her.

"We can't let this continue, or this scoundrel of a disciple will really push us away!"

After giving myself a mental warning.

Qiu Xiaozhu decided to come up with a way to deal with this guy.

"Disciple, I've noticed something. Do you cultivate for more than five minutes each day?"

Qiu Xiaozhu deliberately put on a stern face and asked in a serious master-like manner.

After pondering for a moment, Tang Yu said, "I have observed the daily life of a peerless master like Master, and have benefited greatly from his every move. This is far more effective than simply sitting and cultivating..."

Before Tang Yu could finish his sycophantic speech...

Qiu Xiaozhu interrupted him directly, feigning anger.

"Stop trying to fool me with these empty words. Your senior brother Ye Qiu started the sect at the same time as you, and he's already at the Celestial Realm. How long do you plan to stay stagnant?"

"From today onwards, I require you to cultivate for at least ten hours every day!"

"If you can break through to a higher realm within a month, I'll let you go to bed with me!"

"If it doesn't work, you're not allowed to think about those things anymore!"

After saying these words.

Qiu Xiaozhu felt a surge of smugness in her heart.

Hmph, let's drop a cultivation task on him and see if this kid still dares to keep thinking about me every day!

"Okay, Master, a month, right?"

Tang Yu readily agreed and immediately sat cross-legged, assuming a posture for cultivation.

"Yes, a month, but you should go back to your room and cultivate. Don't cause trouble here."

Qiu Xiaozhu nodded, suppressing a laugh.

If we keep this kid too busy, he won't have as much time to mess around with himself!

"Need not."

Tang Yu shook his head, closed his eyes, pretended to cultivate for a few minutes, and then opened his eyes again.

An aura of the Celestial Realm instantly erupted!

I'm coming clean! I'm not pretending anymore!

When Qiu Duanshui came to cause trouble last time, he had already broken through to a higher realm.

He was just worried that if he revealed his strength, it would be difficult to bully his fellow disciples.

He deliberately pretended that he hadn't made any breakthroughs.

I never expected it would come in handy now!

[My master actually made such a request!]

[Never before has there been such a wonderful start!]

Please cheer for me!

[Let's set a small goal first: help Master break through to a higher realm tonight!]

"Master, look..."

Tang Yu rubbed her hands together and winked at Qiu Xiaozhu.

Qiu Xiaozhu covered her face, wishing she could die.

This vengeful disciple broke through his cultivation realm just to get into my bed?
