Chapter 18: Chapter 18: What Couples Should Do!
"Who cares about the demonic or righteous path? I'll slay them all with a single strike!"
Cold wind blew through the hall as Leng Wuyan's voice echoed within.
The overwhelming pressure radiated, causing Elder Sun to nearly halt his breath.
His gaze was fixed on the figure that appeared both godlike and demonic, his expression filled with astonishment.
This was the aura of an Emperor-level powerhouse!
Even a faint release of this pressure could make one feel as though they were standing on the brink of hell.
Soon, Elder Sun's shock transformed into excitement.
The stronger Leng Wuyan became, the more stable the sect's position would be. As long as Leng Wuyan remained an Emperor-level powerhouse, the Hidden Gauze Sect would stand at the pinnacle of the entire land!
"The might of our Sect Master! Under your leadership, the Hidden Gauze Sect will undoubtedly crush both the righteous and demonic paths, achieving unrivaled dominance!" Elder Sun exclaimed fervently.
Leng Wuyan composed herself and shook her head, saying, "Elder Sun, your praise is excessive."
She had no interest in so-called dominance, nor did she wish to vie with other sects.
As long as others didn't provoke her, she would prefer to remain on this Raksas Peak.
Apart from her cultivation, she could spend her days... engaged in a romantic relationship.
An image of that figure floated into her mind, causing a faint smile to grace her lips.
Striving for supremacy in the land?
What fun was there in that compared to romance?
Elder Sun continued, "Sect Master Leng is being too modest. When looking at the previous Sect Masters, your cultivation has been the strongest and your dedication to the disciples unparalleled. Especially your prohibition against romantic entanglements between male and female disciples – that is an incredibly wise decision!"
Leng Wuyan: (⊙_⊙)
"Guiding the disciples away from worldly affairs and focusing on their cultivation is what will truly strengthen the Hidden Gauze Sect! And you, Sect Master, have set an exemplary standard by not being swayed by earthly desires all these years. You are truly a model ruler of your generation!"
Elder Sun raised his thumbs, generously showering her with praise.
"..."
Leng Wuyan tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Hehe, it's only what I should do..."
If they knew that she was actively pursuing a romantic relationship, they would probably be utterly dumbfounded.
"I truly admire-"
Elder Sun was about to continue when Leng Wuyan quickly interjected, "I've suddenly had an enlightenment and need to enter closed-door cultivation immediately. If there's nothing else, Elder Sun, you can go about your business."
She was afraid that if they continued chatting, she would end up wanting to disappear into thin air.
"Another enlightenment?" Elder Sun stood up, excitedly exclaiming, "Congratulations, Sect Master! In that case, I'll take my leave and not disturb your enlightenment!"
"Very well."
Leng Wuyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, a female disciple entered the hall and bowed, saying, "Reporting to the Sect Master, Lord Holy Son requests an audience."
"Ran'er is here?" Leng Wuyan's eyes brightened.
Before she could speak, Elder Sun interjected, "Sect Master just had an enlightenment and needs to enter immediate closed-door cultivation. You can have Lord Holy Son come another day."
Leng Wuyan: "???"
The female disciple inquired, "Sect Master, should we ask Lord Holy Son to leave for now?"
"No!"
Leng Wuyan stood up abruptly.
Elder Sun blinked, "Sect Master, didn't you say you were going into seclusion?"
"Oh..."
Leng Wuyan felt embarrassed, "The Dao is elusive and hard to grasp. I realized it was just a misconception earlier, not an actual enlightenment."
"Is that so?"
Elder Sun had a lingering feeling that something was amiss.
"Please let Lord Holy Son come in," Leng Wuyan instructed.
"Understood."
The female disciple withdrew.
A moment later, Li Ran walked into the hall, "Disciple pays respects to Master... Elder Sun is here too."
"Lord Holy Son."
Elder Sun nodded.
Leng Wuyan cleared her throat, "Ran'er, what brings you here... ahem, to me?"
Since there was an outsider present, Li Ran naturally wouldn't speak the truth. He quickly thought and said, "Disciple has been encountering some difficulties in cultivation and has come to ask the Sect Master for guidance."
"I see~"
Leng Wuyan suppressed her amusement, "It's rare to see you so diligent. Come with me to the sparring hall then, we'll check your progress in practice."
She briskly left the hall.
There was not a trace of her previous imposing aura, now she seemed like a girl next door.
Elder Sun rubbed his chin, watching their departing figures, "Why does Sect Master seem so strange..."
No matter how hard he tried, he would never be able to guess that the Sect Master was actually in a romantic relationship with her disciple!
...
Sparring Hall.
Leng Wuyan stood with her hands behind her back, "Now that there's no one else, speak up. What did you come to me for?"
Li Ran scratched his head, "Disciple has come to apologize to Master."
"Apologize?"
Leng Wuyan recalled the events of the previous day, a tingling sensation seemed to wash over her again, "What, what do you have to apologize for?"
Li Ran spoke sincerely, "Disciple used your concern to win the match, and for that, I feel guilty. I also accidentally crossed a boundary that shouldn't have been crossed..."
"Enough!"
Leng Wuyan turned her head away, her cheeks tinted with red, "That matter is in the past, there's no need to bring it up again. Besides, I'm not blaming you..."
"Then I can rest easy." Li Ran let out a sigh of relief.
"By the way, have you thought about the condition you want to propose?" Leng Wuyan asked.
"I have." Li Ran nodded.
"Oh? Do tell," Leng Wuyan's curiosity was piqued.
Li Ran cleared his throat, "Disciple wants to do the things that couples should do with Master!"
Leng Wuyan: ∑(⊙д⊙ノ)ノ
