83. Special Training

Unlike Li Ruoruo’s excitement, Su Kexin was somewhat shy when it came to Lin Nuo.

From noble mtl dot come

“Senior brother, he’s actually a person who’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He’s very low-key. On the surface, he may seem harsh, but in reality, he’s silently giving, caring for others. Many people misunderstand senior brother, thinking he’s indifferent, but in fact, he’s warmer than anyone. He also has a sense of justice, supports the weak, and is indifferent to fame and fortune…”

“Oh? So, junior sister Kexin really understands him, huh?”

Mu Yiting laughed teasingly.

“No, not really…”

Su Kexin’s face grew even redder, “I just know a little bit, the truth is, senior brother has quite a few virtues that I haven’t fully grasped yet…”

Mu Yiting, who was adept at reading people, could probably guess Su Kexin’s thoughts.

She had feelings for him, the pure young girl’s little thoughts and desires were all written on her face.

Then Mu Yiting went to chat with Liu Shuqin, and in passing, brought up Lin Nuo, receiving yet another positive response.

Moreover, within the Xuan Yun Sect, the voices that belittled Lin Nuo had decreased significantly. Feng Hai Lin’s slaying of a heavenly demon dragon, single-handedly turning the tide, along with the recent royal thank-you gifts, were all changing everyone’s perception of Lin Nuo.

However, Mu Yiting felt that these praises did not match Lin Nuo’s murderous gaze, those eyes that seemed to peer into the depths of people’s hearts, were not those of a mere good person or a righteous hero.

Perhaps he was also pretending? Like her, feigning the appearance of a good-natured person?

Today was a day for collective cultivation. The Xuan Yun Sect would gather all the disciples for some specialized training.

“Young master, eat a bit more~!”

“That’s enough.”

Lin Nuo had a bowl of porridge and gnawed on two buns before heading out with his sword in tow.

The Xuan Yun Sect had many specialized trainings, and Lin Nuo could no longer remember which was which.

He made his way to Han Xianzi’s pavilion, where his senior and junior sisters had already arrived.

“Lin Nuo, you’re late again.”

“Sorry, I overslept.”

“You’re a disciple who has established great merits. I hope you’ll be more punctual in the future.”

Han Xianzi lectured earnestly, and Lin Nuo nodded in agreement, though in reality, he had woken up quite early. He ended up practicing his Qi alone and almost lost track of time, nearly standing them up.

The specialized trainings at Xuan Yun Sect weren’t very useful to him; he’d rather cultivate on his own.

However, since today was a day for collective training, he couldn’t just disappear. He had to show up, at least in spirit, and participate in the specialized training.

With everyone present, Han Xianzi sat in the master’s seat, with Lin Nuo and the others standing before her.

Ideally, the four disciples should focus their attention on their master, Han Xianzi. However, Qin Shili and Su Kexin were both fixated on Lin Nuo, paying close attention to his attire and every move he made that day.

Qin Shili was the most blatant, staring at him without even blinking.

These gazes made Lin Nuo feel uncomfortable. These days, he couldn’t keep a low profile even if he wanted to. After all, they were the dazzling pearls of Xuan Yun Sect. Getting involved with them meant attracting attention.

“Cough cough.”

Han Xianzi coughed twice, snapping them back to reality. They hurriedly shifted their gaze to her.

Han Xianzi was helpless. These two female disciples were like moths to a flame, their thoughts completely fixated on Lin Nuo.

Young ladies, their hearts were stirring.

“Now that everyone is here, let’s go together. Today’s specialized training is very important. It might be uncomfortable, so prepare yourselves mentally.”

“Uncomfortable, master? What kind of training is this?”

Su Kexin asked, sounding worried.

“I won’t tell you for now. You’ll know after it’s over. Just be prepared for some unpleasant memories along the way.”

Han Xianzi didn’t respond directly, maintaining an air of mystery.

The specialized training at Xuan Yun Sect was usually announced to the disciples in advance, but not this time. Neither Han Xianzi’s sect nor any other had done so.

Many disciples of Xuan Yun Sect reacted like Su Kexin, worried and anxious. They were uncertain about what they would face and what trials lay ahead.

Their masters had reached a consensus: they would not reveal the specifics of the training.

This was Su Kexin’s first time stepping into the fray.

Lin Nuo felt indifferent, thinking, “Could you possibly kill someone? It would be a blessing if Su Kexin were gone.”

“Let’s set off.”

The master and his four disciples headed towards the Hún Líng Hall, where many disciples had already gathered before them.

“What kind of training is this?”

“I have no idea, it’s all so secretive, but I’m not scared.”

“Why are your legs shaking if you’re not scared?”

“Maybe I’ve been squatting for too long…”

Whispers and discussions spread among the disciples, their anxiety palpable as the details of the training had not been disclosed.

At that moment, Sect Leader Zhao and several elders emerged from the Hún Líng Hall. The revered masters, including Han Xianzi, approached to report to the sect leader.

“Sect Leader, we’re all here.”

“We’re ready on this end too.”

“Good, I’m aware. Proceed with the plan and bring them in.”

With Sect Leader Zhao’s command, the disciples were led into the Hún Líng Hall, entering various areas where barriers had been erected, though they could walk through them freely.

“Everyone’s inside. The trial of the heart is about to begin.”
