Wen Que was still a little restrained sitting in Chao Yao's arms. After all, it had been three months since she started learning, and Chao Yao had hardly seen her except for completing the apprenticeship ceremony and teaching Wen Que how to breathe.

And every time they met afterwards, he would come over to ask Shi Yuan for a free meal.

Since the sect's large classes started, Wen Que went to class obediently every day, and after coming back, Shi Yuan gave her small classes.

In the evening, I meditate with Shiyuan for an hour, and then go to sleep soundly after meditation.

Therefore, Wen Que felt that he was not particularly familiar with Chao Yao, and after all, he was his master. Wen Que had seen Chao Yao checking on his fellow disciples’ practice once more.

Seeing Chao Yao admonishing his senior brothers, he was quite strict.

She looked to Shi Yuan for help.

Shi Yuan said to Chao Yao, "Master, you don't need to hold Junior Sister like this when she's eating. She can eat by herself. You're not going to feed her, so why are you holding her? You're delaying Junior Sister's meal."

Chao Yao couldn't let go and pinched the little ball in his arms: "It's so cute."

Now Shi Yuan has taken good care of her and she is so clean and fair, isn't she very adorable.

"Junior sister has almost finished her marrow cleansing. Isn't it time for you to teach her how to draw Qi into the body?" Shi Yuan reminded her.

He waved his hands and said, "What's there to teach? Can't you teach it, too?"

"No, I won't teach her. I'm not her master, and I need someone to teach me myself. What if I teach my little junior sister bad things?" It wasn't that Shi Yuan was completely unable to teach.

She just wanted her master to stay in the sect longer and spend more time with him.

Chao Yao listened to the eldest disciple urging him like chanting a sutra: "Okay, okay, okay, got it."

"Aque is still so young, why are you in such a hurry?" Chao Yao picked up a piece of meat for Wen Que: "Aque should not be like your senior sister, a little old-fashioned. She should practice the ruthless way."

"Master, what is the Way of Mercy?" Wen Que asked curiously.

Chao Yao chuckled: "The ruthless way, it's the way of being without emotion and desire. Those who practice the ruthless way are very powerful."

Wen Que, at such a young age, seems unable to understand such a profound topic.

Shi Yuan said with disdain: "If it is so powerful, why doesn't Master practice it himself?"

Chao Yao took a bite of food and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I can't cultivate it. Your master's Tao is the seven emotions and six desires of this world."

Wen Que blinked in confusion, totally not understanding.

Shi Yuan was slightly stunned. She felt that she didn't seem to have a very deep understanding of her master.

But when these words came out of Chao Yao's mouth, Shi Yuan felt that there was absolutely no problem at all.

Shi Yuan suddenly remembered the first lesson Chao Yao taught her after she successfully built her foundation. At that time, Chao Yao said that a cultivator must understand his or her own heart of Tao. This heart of Tao does not necessarily mean to have compassion for the world or to abandon all selfish desires, but it depends on why you cultivate Tao.

In her previous life, Chao Yao's words had pulled her back when she was almost going crazy.

Her path has always been to cultivate for herself and the people who are important to her.

As a teacher, the most important thing is not how much knowledge you impart, but to point out the way forward for your students.

In this regard, Chao Yao is indeed a very good teacher.

Thinking of this, Shi Yuan couldn't help feeling sad.

Chao Yao picked up some food for Wen Que and said, "Little Ah Que, you don't have to think so much. It doesn't matter if you can't figure it out. Just remember it. You will understand it one day."

Chao Yao smiled slightly at Wen Que.

Wen Que thought about it and nodded gently: "Okay, Master, A Que will remember it."

"Remember what?" Chao Yao asked her with amusement.

"Remember, Master's Dao is the seven emotions and six desires of this world." Wen Que replied in a low voice.

Chao Yao smiled and said, "You are so good."

“Master, don’t worry that our junior sister can’t be taught. She has a high level of comprehension, even higher than me.” Shi Yuan said to Chao Yao.

"Oh, I see. I won't stop teaching you. Why are you so worried?"

How could Shi Yuan not worry?

After all, her master disappeared without a trace.

In the past, he would disappear for a year or two at will.

After Chao Yao had dinner, she said that the master wanted to see her about something and left immediately.

Shi Yuan cleaned up the dishes and was about to take Wen Que to meditate as usual.

The two people who were punished and Jingyou just happened to come over.

Jingyou stood respectfully at the door, followed by Yun Yumo and Shen Ji, who looked as tired as two dead dogs.

"Senior Sister, the punishments for the Third and Fourth Junior Brothers have been completed."

"Senior Sister, I was wrong, really wrong. I will never teach my junior sister nonsense again." Yun Yumo lowered his eyes and said sincerely.

Shen Ji also apologized.

If you ignore the reluctance and unwillingness in their eyes, the apology looks quite sincere.

Shi Yuan was too lazy to pay attention to them, and just nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand, let's go back."

Wen Que carefully hid behind Shi Yuan and secretly looked at his three senior brothers outside the door.

Yun Yumo and Shen Ji bowed to Shi Yuan and ran away.

Jingyou was still outside, and seemed to have something else to say.

Shi Yuan looked at him coldly, and Jing You asked carefully, "Sister, why haven't you urged Third Junior Brother and Fourth Junior Brother to practice these days?"

"And...he doesn't give us any guidance at all." Jingyou's voice was not loud, but the look he gave Shi Yuan seemed to carry some accusation and grievance.

Shi Yuan sneered: "Don't you all think I'm controlling you and are very annoyed? Cultivation is your own business. Since you don't like me controlling you, why don't you be free now?"

Jingyou was stunned for a moment, and watched Shiyuan pick up Wenque: "Besides, Ah Que is still young, but you are not young anymore. It is up to you to decide when to practice and whether you want to practice. I am just your senior sister, and it seems that I have no obligation to control you."

"If you have nothing else, go back." He said and closed the door.

She really didn't want to look at Jingyou any longer, as she would not be able to suppress the murderous intent in her heart if she did.

Jingyou was locked outside by Shi Yuan. He looked at the closed door for a long time without moving.

They had complained before, but my senior sister never ignored them.

Why is it?

Was it after Junior Sister came here?

Is Junior Sister so important?

Jingyou couldn't understand.

But every word the senior sister said was right, and Jingyou couldn't refute it.

Compared to their senior sister, they are indeed not that serious about cultivation.

Even Jingyou himself, relying on his high talent, can easily surpass his peers, so Jingyou never thinks that practicing is a difficult thing.

In the past, Jingyou was puzzled as to why Shi Yuan forced them to practice hard.

He also felt that it was not worth wasting his best years as a teenager on spiritual practice.

But Jingyou felt a little unwilling to really ignore them at that time.

Shi Yuan knew that Jingyou had been standing outside the door.

She also knew why.
