Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 689 - 337: Guardian Disciple, Qing Jun!

Qing Jun, her thoughts exposed, wasn’t angry. Instead, she went even further, pressing her face against Chen Ye’s chest.

"Master is so warm..."

The little girl let out a comfortable sigh, her voice growing fainter,

"Much more comfortable than the Spirit Jade bed... hard and warm..."

After a while.

There came the sound of steady, long breaths from his embrace.

Chen Ye felt the dampness on his chest—no need to look to know, this rebellious disciple definitely drooled again.

He wanted to pull down this sticky "octopus," but as he touched her little head, his movement stopped.

Moonlight, spilled onto a corner of the bed.

Peaceful and harmonious.

Chen Ye looked at the Little Dragon Girl sleeping with limbs sprawled everywhere, and sighed helplessly.

This girl, is she faking it or not?

How can she sleep as soon as she touches the bed?

"Forget it. Just treat it as raising a big hand warmer."

He adjusted his position, letting Qing Jun sleep more comfortably while allowing her little tiger teeth to press against him.

After all, Master also has thick skin.

Let the disciple grind her teeth if she wants...

...

In the next two days, whether at Danxia Peak or Cangli Courtyard, there wasn’t any trouble.

Over at Danxia Peak,

perhaps Zhao Yushuang was considerate of her nephew’s feelings, for the radiant Peak Master Danxia didn’t show herself even once during the alchemy sessions in these two days.

Instead, there was Zhao Tong, the "door god."

This guy must have a screw loose; he stood guard at the door of the Number One Pill Room before dawn every day.

The official reason was to serve as an attendant, helping Chen Ye with alchemy.

Chen Ye had no choice but to let him be.

"..."

Facing such a shameless inspector, Chen Ye was speechless.

If it were a pleasant companion, alchemy could be a refined affair.

But now, with a face full of bitterness and hatred across from him, Chen Ye felt no enthusiasm whatsoever.

Hence.

He could only speed up the alchemy process.

Tasks initially planned for three days were forcefully compressed into two days.

"Boom!"

With the last batch of Soaring Spirit Pills completed, Chen Ye waved his wide sleeves, neatly arranging the pills on the jade table.

"Task completed."

Chen Ye clapped his hands, too lazy to even glance at Zhao Tong in the corner, took hold of Qing Jun, who was already bored to the point of drawing circles on the floor,

"Let’s go, time to head home."

Zhao Tong watched Chen Ye’s carefree departing figure and then looked at the pile of top-grade Pills stacked mountain-high on the table, opened his mouth to say a few harsh words, but found himself at a loss for any point of attack other than a snort.

This freeloader...

He indeed works fast.

As for the little girl, she followed Master out in silence.

She was quite upset inside.

That day, she originally wanted to check on Master.

But who knew,

The priest’s bed was so comfortable, she ended up falling asleep!

And the next morning, she even got caught by Senior Sister...

This led to her being watched by Senior Sister afterward, leaving her no time to check on the priest!

...

Back at Baopu Peak, Cangli Courtyard.

Upon entering the courtyard, Chen Ye saw an elderly man sitting at the stone table, leisurely sipping tea while holding an ancient scroll in hand.

It was Xu Henshan.

"Back already?"

Seeing Chen Ye enter, Xu Henshan put down the tea cup, glanced at Chen Ye, and smiled,

"Seeing your radiant face, you spent these days well at Danxia Peak? I heard Peak Master Zhao treated you with considerable courtesy."

"Don’t mention it."

Chen Ye waved his hand, plopped down opposite him, poured himself a cup of tea,

"Spent two days being guarded like a thief for hundreds of pills, terribly unlucky."

"Hahaha!"

Xu Henshan laughed heartily, Zhao Yushuang was well-known in the sect, even Xu Henshan knew she doted on her nephew, he recalled,

"It must be that Zhao Family boy? He is quite the rascal. But being able to make an aloof and proud alchemy cultivator like Zhao Yushuang bend her pride is quite the skill. Tsk tsk... Initially, I intended for Changfeng to marry into the Zhao Family. Who knew Zhao Yushuang would look down on Changfeng, oh well, that’s all in the past."

Bear in mind,

Xu Changfeng, still young, was a middle-period Foundation Establishment cultivator and one of the heads of the Xu Family.

In the vast Yan Kingdom, he was among the few outstanding young talents.

Yet Zhao Yushuang sneered and even gave him the cold shoulder publicly...

After the jokes, Xu Henshan’s expression became slightly more solemn, looking at Qing Jun playing with her fingers on the stone table:

"By the way, onto serious matters. Qing Jun, this girl, indeed has incredible talent. Over these days, I have passed all the True Seals to her."

"Oh?"

Chen Ye’s eyes lit up,

"Has she mastered them?"

The Xu Family True Seal was a Golden Core-level legacy.

Previously, Qing Jun mastering three Seals already allowed her to be formidable.

Now, having all nine Seals... this girl’s combat power would be unimaginable.

Furthermore,

Prior to this, Qing Jun’s cultivation had stalled at the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer partially because studying the True Seal divided her attention.

Now that she’s mastered the True Seal, she can devote herself fully to cultivation.

"She has." Xu Henshan nodded, still somewhat amazed,

"This girl’s character is lively, but in terms of comprehension, she’s unmatched in my lifetime!"

Seeing Xu Henshan in a good mood,

Chen Ye decided to probe, asking in a low voice:

"May I ask, elder, it’s said the Xu Family True Seal comprises thirty-six Seals. But not everyone can comprehend all thirty-six; it depends on the cultivator’s personal talent and insight. With Qing Jun understanding nine Seals, how does her aptitude compare across the entire Xu Family?"

Xu Henshan, wise with age.

He understood Chen Ye’s implication of referring to the entire Xu Family, realizing Chen Ye meant the Ruins Country Xu Family.

The old man sighed lightly, "I don’t know... Although the True Seals consist of thirty-six Seals, the Yan Kingdom Xu Family only retains nine. However, since the thirty-six True Seals contradict each other’s attributes, no one can comprehend more than twelve. In the ancestral family, mastering six Seals is already considered a genius, nine is a prodigy! Though Qing Jun has grasped nine Seals, that’s because my Xu Family only has nine left."
