Chapter 7 Master, Are You Feeling Shy?

Lin Xueyan was startled by her master's words, wanting to directly attack the Black Demon Sect?

"Master, wouldn't it be too hasty if we went directly?"

Although she also wished to destroy the Black Demon Sect immediately, the problem was the Nine Nether Demonic Sect behind it.

Lin Xueyan worriedly said, "If the Nine Nether Demonic Sect pursues us, won't it cause trouble for you and the sect?"

"Why don't we wait a bit longer? Although Xueyan wants revenge, she doesn't want to implicate you, Master..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun let out a cold snort and said fiercely.

"What if the Nine Nether Demonic Sect protects them? If they dare to bully my disciple, even if they are affiliated with the Featherfall Immortal Palace, I will kill them all!"

"As for any repercussions later, let them deal with it. We'll see if they have the guts to come find me!"

Ye Yun's voice was filled with killing intent, showing his genuine anger.

The mere Black Demon Sect, regardless of the reason, had slaughtered Lin family's entire clan. They must pay tooth for tooth and blood for blood!

Listening to her master's overwhelmingly domineering words, Lin Xueyan's heart trembled, and her eyes welled up with tears again.

"Master... Thank you!"

She had lost count of how many times she had said "thank you" today, but now, there was nothing else she could do but express her gratitude.

In her excitement, she leaned closer to her master, seemingly wanting to hug him, but unexpectedly missed.

Lin Xueyan froze for a moment, then looked up at Ye Yun intently.

"Master, did you just take half a step back?"

"How could I? You must have seen wrong."

"Is that so..."

Lin Xueyan took another step forward and missed again.

"Master, you definitely stepped back!"

She puffed out her cheeks and looked at Ye Yun indignantly, but soon, a look of surprise crossed her face.

"Could it be that... Master, are you feeling shy?"

To be fair, she was quite intelligent and quickly deduced the correct answer.

However, Ye Yun clearly wouldn't admit it. He coughed lightly and said,

"What are you thinking? How could your master feel shy towards a child like you?"

"I'm not a child!"

Lin Xueyan said indignantly, crossing her hands on her hips.

"In a little while, I'll be sixteen years old. I'm already half an adult, and I've even reached the age where I can get married!"

She tilted her head and puffed out her chest towards Ye Yun, as if displaying her developing figure.

Ye Yun was quite speechless watching her. Just as he was about to say something, Lin Xueyan had already leaned in and wrapped her arms around his right hand.

His old face turned red.

"Master, your face is red!"

Lin Xueyan looked up at Ye Yun with a mischievous smile, as if she had achieved some cunning plan.

Ye Yun was torn between laughter and tears. He could only pat her head helplessly and say,

"My disciple, if you act like this and encounter someone with ill intentions, it can be very dangerous."

Let alone others, even Ye Yun himself, if it weren't for her young age and his status as her master, he would absolutely struggle to suppress his primal urges.

Lin Xueyan nodded obediently and said, "Besides you, Master, Xueyan wouldn't act like this towards anyone else. This is your privilege!"

She nestled against Ye Yun, her small body as docile as a kitten.

Ye Yun said exasperatedly, "Are you not afraid that I might be a bad person?"

"Not afraid!"

Lin Xueyan shook her head gently, then smiled and said, "And if it's you, Master, Xueyan doesn't care about anything else, even if..."

As she spoke, a slight blush spread across Lin Xueyan's face, and she shyly lowered her head, burying it in Ye Yun's chest.

What to do? What to do?

Her heart pounded like a wild deer. The more she thought about it, the more ashamed she felt. She seemed to have developed feelings for her master.

This was something Lin Xueyan had never dared to imagine before, but now it was happening for real. Every time she saw her master, her heart fluttered.

In Lin Xueyan's heart, her master had given her everything, saved her from despair. Coupled with Ye Yun's various charms, it was naturally an irresistible temptation for someone in her prime youth.

The question was, would Master like me? This had become Lin Xueyan's biggest doubt.

Ye Yun was not an idiot. He instantly realized what she was about to say, and his face was covered in dark lines.

He flicked her forehead with his finger and said helplessly, "Little head of yours, don't think about these adult matters for now. We'll talk about everything when you grow up."

Little did she know, his words made Lin Xueyan's heart flutter.

Everything will be discussed when I grow up? Does that mean as long as I grow up, it's fine?

With this epic interpretation, Lin Xueyan directly equated growing up with becoming a cultivation partner with her master.

She nodded happily, "Okay, Xueyan understands!"

Seeing her smile, Ye Yun was still a bit uncertain. Did this girl really understand?

Forget it, no matter what little thoughts she had, as long as he maintained his integrity, nothing would happen, right? Probably...

Ye Yun didn't overthink it. Moreover, he had more important things to do!

Ye Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Speaking of which, your cultivation has already reached the Innate Realm. It's time for me to impart some profound techniques to you."

He slightly raised a finger, and a golden light shot out from his fingertip, instantly merging into Lin Xueyan's forehead.

"I have just imparted to you a sword art, a movement technique, and a method for controlling swords. Their quality is all of Profound Grade Intermediate."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xueyan's eyes lit up, and she was extremely excited.

"Thank you, Master!"

In the path of cultivation, the quality of profound techniques was an important indicator of a cultivator's strength. The quality of profound techniques ranged from Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow grades, from highest to lowest. Each grade was further divided into low, intermediate, and advanced, and top-tier.

Within the Ancient Dao Heavenly Sect, the highest quality profound technique was a saber art of Profound Grade Top-tier.

Most disciples only had access to Yellow Grade Intermediate or Advanced profound techniques at most.

As for the few Profound Grade profound techniques, only elders were qualified to cultivate them. Yet, her master had bestowed upon her such high-quality profound techniques right from the start, making her extremely happy.

"Master is too good to me!"

Lin Xueyan was secretly delighted, and Ye Yun was equally thrilled.

[You have bestowed upon your disciple Profound Grade Intermediate Wind Spirit Sword Art, activating a hundredfold return, obtaining Earth Grade Top-tier Residual Cloud Sword Art!]

[You have bestowed upon your disciple Profound Grade Intermediate Swimming Dragon Movement Technique, activating a ninetyfold return, obtaining Earth Grade Top-tier Snow Traceless Movement Technique!]

[You have bestowed upon your disciple Profound Grade Intermediate Sword Control Art, activating a hundredfold return, obtaining Earth Grade Top-tier Wind Thunder Sword Control Art!]

A flood of information surged into Ye Yun's mind, revealing the details of these three Earth Grade Top-tier profound techniques.

The returns for these three categories directly brought him top-tier sword art, movement technique, and even sword control art!

These were Earth Grade Top-tier!

Let alone the Four Great Sects of the Eastern Region, even the Featherfall Immortal Palace, the hegemon of the Eastern Region, might not possess many of these.

To put it bluntly, after mastering these profound techniques, coupled with the Phoenix bloodline he had awakened earlier, he could easily fight against ordinary Venerables even when his cultivation level was lower!

At his level, fighting across realms would likely be considered a fantasy by others.

"Disciple, remember to cultivate diligently and strive to reach the King Realm as soon as possible. At that time, I will impart even more powerful profound techniques to you!"

Ye Yun smiled and tempted his disciple. Lin Xueyan's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"More powerful profound techniques? Are they Profound Grade Top-tier?"

"You'll know when the time comes."

Ye Yun kept her in suspense. The reason he didn't immediately give her the three Earth Grade profound techniques was that they couldn't exert their full power below the King Realm, and it would be like biting off more than one could chew.

It would be just as well to wait until she reached the King Realm before bestowing them upon her.

After completing these tasks, Ye Yun finally gave a final instruction.

"In any case, spend these two days diligently studying the profound techniques. On the third day, I will take you down the mountain for revenge!"
