Making Another Bet with Master

"What are you daydreaming about? Didn't I say I'd teach you to play the flute later?"

Seeing Tang Yu suddenly freeze in front of the bookshelf, Qiu Xiaozhu picked up her purple bamboo flute and asked.

"Yes, Master."

After regaining her composure, Tang Yu eagerly followed her master to the sea of flowers to sit and teach her how to play the flute.

Under Tang Yu's careful guidance, Qiu Xiaozhu's skill level has improved very quickly, and she can now play quite a few pieces.

After Qiu Xiaozhu finished playing, Tang Yu, as if he had found a treasure, picked up the flute and took over playing.

Cough, it smells like Master.

Qiu Xiaozhu was already used to sharing a single flute.

Anyway, this guy did everything except the last step, so this isn't a big deal.

"Master, can I teach you other musical instruments later? Guitar, piano, or something like that."

After playing a tune, Tang Yu lay on Qiu Xiaozhu's lap and asked with a smile, gently stroking her lap with one hand.

"Sure, I have nothing else to do anyway."

As Qiu Xiaozhu spoke, she gently tapped Tang Yu's forehead with her flute.

This was a veiled protest against the guy's inappropriate behavior of sleeping on his lap and touching him inappropriately.

"And Master, I'm thinking of participating in the inner disciple selection in a couple of days. What do you think about me becoming an elder?"

Tang Yu asked with a smile.

"Huh? Become an elder?"

Qiu Xiaozhu was stunned for a moment, then a blush crept onto her face.

According to the rules of the Nine Heavens Alliance, a disciple is considered to have officially graduated when he/she becomes an elder.

This guy is suddenly so ambitious and wants to graduate.

Is he in such a hurry to be promoted from apprentice to full-fledged employee?

"Yes, becoming an elder would give us a legitimate reason to be with Master."

Tang Yu chuckled and reached her hand up through the seam of her clothes again.

Qiu Xiaozhu pulled the guy's restless hand out of her mouth, put it to her lips, and bit it hard, saying angrily.

"Who wants to be in a legitimate relationship with you? Shameless! Believe me, I'll bite you to death!"

"It's fine if it's not official, I quite like doing it secretly, and Master, are you really going to bite me to death?"

"..."

Qiu Xiaozhu was so angry that she bit Tang Yu's face while pinching it with her hands.

Tang Yu used her other hand to tickle Qiu Xiaozhu's itchy spot.

This amused Qiu Xiaozhu so much that she immediately released her mouth, her body trembling as she begged for mercy.

Tang Yu took the opportunity to push Qiu Xiaozhu down into the sea of flowers, then pounced on her and kissed her beloved master.

"Ugh... no..."

Qiu Xiaozhu called out twice indistinctly, but her mouth was firmly covered by Tang Yu, who was overwhelmed with filial piety, and her hands were also held down so she couldn't move.

After a few minutes of intense verbal sparring, Qiu Xiaozhu was completely defeated, and her struggles were merely a facade.

Tang Yu simply hugged her beloved master and let her sit on her lap, then lowered her head to continue kissing her.

The hand that was around her waist then slid down.

"Not here..."

After sensing that this guy's hands were becoming increasingly audacious.

Qiu Xiaozhu could only helplessly grab the guy's hand.

The master and apprentice spent a few moments cuddling amidst the sea of flowers.

Unable to bear it any longer, Qiu Xiaozhu pushed away her wicked disciple, put on her clothes, and said with shame and indignation.

What do you think you're doing in broad daylight?

"Master."

Tang Yu smiled intoxicatingly.

My master's shy expression is absolutely adorable.

Even if Tang Yu spent hours just teasing her like this, she wouldn't get bored.

"Shameless!"

Qiu Xiaozhu cursed weakly.

She found herself becoming increasingly sensitive, completely unable to resist this guy's advances.

But then again, he figured he'd be the one washing the underwear anyway.

Qiu Xiaozhu felt a little better then, and grumbled twice, "You're not allowed to touch me like that anymore."

"Then I won't be casual, I'll be serious, okay?"

Tang Yu reached out and grabbed Qiu Xiaozhu's hand, chuckling.

"Pah, even being serious won't do."

"Then what should we do?"

"No means no!"

"But I can't control myself."

"Rolling, rolling (ノ`Д)ノ!"

After yelling "Get out!" a few times, Qiu Xiaozhu turned around and ran back to her room to change her clothes, as if fleeing.

Tang Yu lay contentedly in the sea of flowers.

I'm already thinking about how I'll go to the hot springs with my master tonight.

The annual inner disciple selection is approaching.

The inner disciples all put in their best effort in various training sessions.

They are trying to achieve a good result in the general election.

According to the rules of the inner sect, as long as you can enter the top twenty, you can receive various rewards.

The higher the ranking, the better the reward, all of which are the most sought-after training resources by Ancient Martial Artist.

The inner disciples who made it into the top three all possessed the strength of the Celestial Realm.

They can also run for the position of elder.

In the eyes of the inner disciples, the new elder this year must be Qiu Duanshui, the senior disciple of the inner sect.

He has already set the standards, both in terms of reputation and ability.

Ye Qiu came with the Second Elder Qiu Fenghan.

By the time they arrived, most of the inner disciples had already gathered.

"Disciple, there is only one person in the inner sect who can be your opponent this year, and that is Qiu Duanshui. This kid has been incredibly talented since he was a child. You must not be careless towards him, understand?"

Qiu Fenghan stood beside Ye Qiu, smiling and showing concern.

"Don't worry, Master, I'll take him down easily."

Ye Qiu smiled confidently, seemingly unconcerned.

How dare Qiu Duanshui, a nobody, call himself a genius in front of me?

He glanced at everyone, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Why hasn't my aunt arrived yet?

I haven't seen that kid Ling Jun anywhere.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, Tang Yu and Qiu Xiaozhu finally arrived late.

The two walked side by side; Qiu Xiaozhu still wore a world-weary expression, but her eyes held a hint of shyness.

Damn it, I could have come much earlier.

As a result, this guy said early in the morning that the things he had asked someone to bring had arrived, and he took out a set of JK uniforms and asked her to try them on to see if they fit.

After changing into it, she looked in the mirror and thought it was indeed quite cute.

As a result, this guy grabbed me on his lap and started messing around with me, which delayed me for quite a while, and I almost let him get his way.

Ever since that day I kissed this guy.

The daily life of a master and apprentice has become like that of adults.

That vengeful disciple of his is always finding new ways to get back at me!

"Master, shall we make a bet?"

Tang Yu asked in a low voice with a smile.

"What kind of bet?"

"I'm betting on whether I can get first place and become an elder. If I don't, I'll listen to whatever my master says from now on."

"Okay, what if you do it?"

Qiu Xiaozhu grinned, realizing that neither winning first place nor becoming an elder was an easy condition to meet.

Tang Yu chuckled but did not answer his master's question.

Everything is understood without words!

Not giving the master a good excuse.

She's too embarrassed to compromise.
