On Hongmeng Mountain, Xu Ziyue tidied her slightly disheveled clothes.

Although her clothes were already covered in pudding and dust, there wasn't much difference between her tidying them up and not tidying them up at all.

Before Lin Yu could react, Xu Ziyue had already knelt down and respectfully kowtowed three times in Lin Yu's direction.

Then, Xu Ziyue raised her head, her face full of seriousness.

" Ziyue greets Master!"

Lin Yu was a little confused by Xu Ziyue's series of actions. He originally thought that taking on a disciple was no big deal and had been playing around with it.

But after Xu Ziyue respectfully kowtowed to him three times, Lin Yu's expression became more serious than ever before.

Lin Yu could clearly see his own reflection in Xu Ziyue's dark, innocent eyes.

Lin Yu stared at Xu Ziyue for a full three seconds, then slowly revealed a gentle smile on his face.

"Alright, let's stay at Hongmeng Mountain from now on."

"Whether you become stronger or not is irrelevant. Just remember, no one on Hongmeng Mountain can bully you!"

"Thank you, Master!" Xu Ziyue replied immediately.

Lin Yu studied Xu Ziyue for a moment, then reached out and gently tapped the air, and a golden scripture appeared out of thin air.

The golden scripture paused briefly in mid-air before transforming into a stream of light and merging into Xu Ziyue's body.

"This is a cultivation technique at the Great Emperor level that I recently acquired. I think it's quite suitable for girls to cultivate."

"Just make do for now and keep practicing. When I meet someone better, I'll naturally give it to you."

What are the most precious treasures to countless cultivators—the Great Emperor -level scriptures—are merely "make do" in Lin Yu's eyes. If other cultivators heard this, they would be incredibly resentful.

However, this is the Primordial Hall, and it absolutely cannot be evaluated by ordinary standards.

As for Xu Ziyue, she was still a little girl and didn't understand these things among cultivators at all. Therefore, even when she saw Lin Yu give her a Great Emperor -level scripture, she was able to remain calm and composed.

"Thank you, Master. I will definitely work hard in my cultivation from now on!" Xu Ziyue felt her body becoming warmer because of the light.

Xu Ziyue spoke these words with some caution. In fact, she was just imitating the way people from the Southern Heaven Holy Land and the Mysterious Heaven Hall spoke.

Looking at Xu Ziyue's appearance, Lin Yu knew that she was being cautious because she had just arrived at the Primordial Hall.

But there's nothing we can do about it; we can only wait for time to heal.

"Things will get better in the future anyway!" Lin Yu thought to himself.

Given the girl's experiences, it's normal for this situation to occur. With that thought in mind, Lin Yu stopped worrying about it.

"Just focus on your cultivation from now on. If you get bored, you can play with Little Purple!"

"There's no need to be so restrained within Hongmeng Mountain!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu gave Xu Ziyue no chance to react and threw Little Purple, who was wrapped around his shoulder, to Xu Ziyue.

Lin Yu then vanished without giving Xu Ziyue a chance to react, leaving her completely bewildered as she held Little Purple Xu Ziyue, unsure of what to do.

"Master seems to be a very good person."

After a long while, Xu Ziyue finally spoke up.

Regardless, Lin Yu's words just now were all words of concern for her. In all her years, apart from her own older sister, no one had ever been so kind to her.

"Of course! Master is just not good at expressing himself; I saw that a long time ago!"

A slightly childish voice then rang in Xu Ziyue's mind.

"That's right, I think so too!" Xu Ziyue nodded subconsciously in reply.

However, the next second, Xu Ziyue realized what was happening and shouted, "Hey, whose voice was that just now?!"

"Who's speaking!" As if to bolster her courage, Xu Ziyue amplified her voice.

"Who's speaking? I am who I am!"

"What?! You haven't even noticed me yet! Damn it, I'm right here, right here!"

"Where? Where is he?" Xu Ziyue looked to her left and right, but didn't see anyone at all, which made her even more frightened.

"Hmph, haven't you noticed? It's right in your arms! Quick, quick, quick! Look down!"

As the sound rang out, Xu Ziyue felt a light tap on her shoulder.

Xu Ziyue lowered her head and saw a pair of blue-purple Dragon Race eyes.

Xu Ziyue: "..."

Little Purple: "..."

The two stared at each other for a full three seconds before Xu Ziyue seemed to finally react and let out a startled cry.

"Ah! You can't possibly talk, can you?! No, you can actually talk! Wait, that's not right either..."

When Xu Ziyue discovered that the creature making the sound was actually the small blue-purple dragon in her arms, she was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.

"Isn't that obvious? I'm a Great Emperor level expert. It's just a matter of mere words. What's so special about it?" Little Purple said disdainfully, clearly not considering this matter to be anything special.

A hint of doubt flashed in Xu Ziyue's eyes. Another Great Emperor level!

From the moment we started talking, both the master and this little blue-purple dragon kept referring to themselves as Great Emperor- level beings!

What exactly is the Great Emperor?

Although she was completely confused, Xu Ziyue didn't say anything. Instead, she pretended to understand and nodded obediently.

"You're really amazing, Great Emperor -level expert!" Xu Ziyue gave Little Purple a thumbs up.

Hearing Xu Ziyue say that, Little Purple couldn't help but show an extremely proud expression.

During his long stay on Hongmeng Mountain, he hadn't spoken much to anyone except his master.

He occasionally meets Lin Baigu, but Lin Baigu is an extremely serious person and would never say such things to him!

Hearing this, Little Purple was clearly pleased and proudly raised her little head. "Of course! Who would have thought that you, little one, who looks so unsophisticated, are actually quite sensible!"

"Hmm, hmm, that's true... You're the master's disciple, so your talent level should be quite good. Anyway, you've already joined Hongmeng Mountain, so feel free to tell me anything in the future!"

"If anyone dares to bully you, just tell me, and I'll whip them away with my tail! You're someone I, Little Purple, have been looking out for!"
