Category: They All Want to Be My Female Lead

15 Official Start of School

Despite being in a world of a carefree novel without a female lead, such a fanservice event occurred, making Yan Zhen feel a deep sense of unease.

This kind of excessively coincidental fanservice scene would only appear in harem carefree novels, which contradicted the tone of the story he was playing.

He hoped it wouldn’t have too much impact on the subsequent plot development, otherwise he would have to find a way to fix it!

“And I feel a bit sorry for Instructor Yu Xuan. Should I do something to compensate her?”

Lying on the bed, Yan Zhen pondered with quite a bit of distress.

In the script, nothing ambiguous happened between him and Instructor Yu Xuan, they were just close teacher and student.

Instructor Yu Xuan was a gentle and good instructor. Although she didn’t really guide him as a disciple (because he had his beautiful master guiding him), she tried her best to fight for cultivation resources for him and opened many doors of convenience for him, exercising various privileges. It could be said that she was the person who treated him the best in the Mystic Academy.

Yan Zhen didn’t want to create a distance between them because of this incident.

“How should I compensate? She’s a mature beauty, sending things that deceive little girls is completely useless and would even cause misunderstandings.”

It was March, the weather was gradually getting hotter. Lying on the bedding, Yan Zhen showed signs of sweating.

He was just thinking of finding a fan to cool off when he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

–That’s right, sweating!

Because of her cultivation technique, Instructor Yu Xuan was quite afraid of heat and sweated very easily. As soon as summer came, she would hide indoors, too lazy to go out. When she had to go out, she would apply cooling and sweat-absorbing fragrant powder and carry a cold mystic tool to relieve the heat.

Both the sweat-absorbing fragrant powder and the cold mystic tool were mostly first-grade.

It just so happened that Yan Zhen’s cultivation gift pack still had a self-selected first-grade mystic pill and a self-selected first-grade mystic tool. He couldn’t use them for the time being, so he could give them to Instructor Yu Xuan as an apology gift. It wasn’t expensive and could eliminate the possible distance that might arise between them. Wasn’t that great?

Both items were things Instructor Yu Xuan loved to use and were not precious. She had no reason to refuse.

Thinking of this, Yan Zhen slowly put his mind at ease, closed his eyes, and entered dreamland.

He didn’t know that Mi Xue’er, Yan Ruyu, and Yan Meng’er, the three girls, had a girls’ night and pretended to chat about him inadvertently until late at night; he also didn’t know that after returning to her room, Instructor Yu Xuan couldn’t help but practice her finger techniques while thinking about his “lively dragon”, practicing until she was exhausted before stopping.

The next morning, Yan Zhen woke up, changed his clothes, and went to the courtyard to do morning exercises, only to see that Instructor Yu Xuan was even earlier than him, airing the bed sheets.

“Instructor, good morning.”

Hearing Yan Zhen’s voice, Instructor Yu Xuan was startled and said in a somewhat flustered manner, “Morning, Yan Zhen, I… well… because I was too busy, I haven’t changed the bed sheets for a long time, so I washed them.”

As soon as the words left her mouth, she regretted it. Wasn’t this like protesting too much? Yan Zhen was so perceptive, wouldn’t he notice?

Yan Zhen only felt puzzled. Didn’t the school just start? Was the instructor also very busy during the break?

But he didn’t say anything, only nodded.

“Then I’ll start my morning exercises.”

“Morning exercise is a very good habit. Persisting will greatly benefit you.”

After saying that in a formulaic manner, Instructor Yu Xuan quickly returned to the main house.

Yan Zhen naturally saw her discomfort and thought that last night’s “bathroom mishap” had indeed caused her to create a distance from him. He had to hurry and eliminate this impact.

…

After breakfast, the five of them walked to the Mystic Academy, attracting attention from many directions along the way.

Mi Xue’er, Yan Ruyu, and Instructor Yu Xuan often walked together. Many people would specially time their school commute to see them more.

However, today was different. There was an additional little beauty in a pink dress and an especially eye-catching handsome guy!

“Who is that guy? He can actually walk together with our academy’s three golden flowers and a little beauty? Too lucky, damn, I’m so jealous!”

“I heard he’s the cousin of that campus belle Yan Ruyu. I think he must have used his cousin’s relationship to become familiar with Mi Xue’er and Instructor Yu Xuan.”

“Wuwu, Instructor Yu Xuan is my goddess. I also want to go to school with Instructor Yu Xuan.”

Yan Zhen had excellent hearing and couldn’t help but feel speechless hearing the surrounding students’ complaints.

After entering the academy gate, the five of them split into three directions.

Yan Meng’er was assigned to the junior class, which was not in the same teaching building as the intermediate class where Yan Zhen, Yan Ruyu, and Mi Xue’er were. Instructor Yu Xuan went to the office building next to the teaching building.

Yan Zhen followed Yan Ruyu and Mi Xue’er to the intermediate class 1. It was a stepped classroom with no assigned seats.

At this time, there weren’t many people in the classroom yet. Yan Zhen chose a seat near the back and looked at the blackboard in the distance, feeling like he was back in university in his previous life.

Yan Ruyu and Mi Xue’er looked around, then sat on either side of Yan Zhen, very close to him, as if the two girls were completely unguarded against him.

In an instant, the gazes of most of the male students in the class turned sharp, their X-ray-like vision all focused on Yan Zhen.

The corner of Yan Zhen’s mouth twitched slightly.

Why would the protagonist in a carefree novel without a female lead still be involved with so many beautiful female characters? The answer was simple: to attract hatred.

Just yesterday, he had offended the City Lord’s Mansion and the first and second families because of Yan Ruyu as soon as he arrived in Silver Moon City.

Now all the male students in the class were also jealous of the two campus belles’ intimacy with him. Without looking at the script, he could imagine that during the noon break, someone would find him to have a talk, or even force a spar.

Of course, this was exactly what he wanted. After all, the system told him to show off more and slap more faces to restore the protagonist’s image that had collapsed a bit.

“Little Brother Yan Zhen, are we putting a lot of pressure on you?”

“I can still handle it.”

“So handsome. Then I’ll rely on your protection, bro~”

“…”

–Are you saying this to me in a whisper to add more fuel to the fire?

Yan Zhen glanced at Mi Xue’er resentfully, while the latter covered her mouth and chuckled.

Yan Ruyu wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she still opened her mouth. “If someone causes trouble for you, just let Instructor Yu Xuan handle it. Don’t hide it and not say anything. This place is not like Martial Tang(1)* City. Those guys won’t consider your identity when they make a move.”

Yan Zhen turned his head and looked at his cousin’s profile. “Elder Sister Ruyu, you’re concerned about me?”

“Who, who’s concerned! It’s just a piece of advice, to save you from causing trouble, hmph~”

Without her younger cousin’s company, Yan Ruyu became flustered as soon as Yan Zhen looked at her.

Hearing this, Mi Xue’er couldn’t help but secretly sigh. Her best friend was truly a standard tsundere. How could she have been blind back then and thought that she could capture Little Brother Yan Zhen? Typical of being useless even when given a chance. Looks like she had to do it herself!

Yan Zhen knew Yan Ruyu had this temperament well and didn’t mind.

The bell rang, and Instructor Yu Xuan walked into the classroom with a ruler and a teaching plan, stood on the podium, and began the first class meeting of the school year.

As a student who had just joined the intermediate class 1 this year, Yan Zhen was asked to introduce himself to everyone. So he recited the lines from the script in a cocky manner, “Young Lord of Martial Tang City, Yan Zhen, sixteen years old, 5-star Mystic Scholar, soon to be 6-star. Whoever wants to challenge me, I’ll take you on!”

Yan Ruyu: “…”

Mi Xue’er: (。。)

Instructor Yu Xuan: (⊙\_⊙)?

Other classmates: (╬￣皿￣)=○

14 My Little Brother is Invincible in the World

Seeing Mi Xue’er approaching, Yan Zhen and Instructor Yu Xuan were about to break out in cold sweat.

“Instructor, use water to push her away,” Yan Zhen suggested in a small voice. Familiar with the script, he naturally knew that Instructor Yu Xuan cultivated a water-based technique.

“…”

Only then did Instructor Yu Xuan react. She quickly circulated her mystic power, stirring up the pool water to form small waves, forcibly pushing Mi Xue’er back.

“Hey, hey, hey, Instructor Yu Xuan, don’t push me!”

“You’re not allowed to come over.” Instructor Yu Xuan said indifferently, not even looking at Mi Xue’er, and scooped up pool water to wash her skin on her own.

Yan Ruyu and Yan Meng’er both covered their mouths and giggled, with a hint of schadenfreude.

“Look at you, being disliked by the instructor. Can’t you behave yourself?”

“Sister Xue’er, it’s best not to anger the instructor.”

Mi Xue’er’s face was splashed with hot water. She shook her head like a small animal, shaking off the water droplets on her face. Her eyes were extremely resentful as she looked at Instructor Yu Xuan. Hearing the two girls’ mockery, she became angry from embarrassment and also splashed water at them.

One hand splashing each person.

Yan Ruyu didn’t indulge her at all and immediately retaliated. Yan Meng’er appeared smiling on the surface, but she was actually not one to be taken advantage of. She also returned the favor.

The three girls splashed water at each other, making a ruckus, their laughter ringing like bells.

In the past, Instructor Yu Xuan would have scolded them by now, but now she hoped they would make more noise and not turn their attention to this side.

Taking a temporary breather, Instructor Yu Xuan’s tense delicate body slowly relaxed. Suddenly, she felt a burning hot object pressing against her below, occasionally moving. Her face first showed confusion, then realized what it was. It instantly turned completely red, both shy and angry.

“Yan Zhen!”

She reached out and slapped Yan Zhen’s leg under the water, gesturing for him not to mess around, and at the same time, she sat a little forward.

Yan Zhen had an innocent expression.

Instructor Yu Xuan sat on his legs with her bare buttocks, their skin touching. How could his little brother, who claimed to be invincible in the world, remain unmoved?

He was a teenage boy in his puberty!

But since the current situation was his fault, Yan Zhen didn’t say anything and tried to think of some disgusting things to reduce his physiological urges.

For example, the giant elephant’s butt, the black goat of the forest…

Ugh~

Just as it started to take effect, he saw Instructor Yu Xuan’s hand reaching back, grabbing it.

Yan Zhen inhaled a sharp breath.

“Instructor?”

“Don’t move.”

As a mature adult, Instructor Yu Xuan obviously knew that a virile young man couldn’t control his desires. Worried that he would get too excited and thrust it in, she took preemptive measures.

Yan Zhen’s thoughts gradually became blurry. In his mind, the image of his beautiful and charming math teacher from his previous life patiently teaching him how to solve problems appeared.

“Teacher, where should I start with this problem?”

The slightly cold math teacher said indifferently, “First, derive this.”

Thinking of this, Yan Zhen slowly relaxed his body and entered a state of no thoughts, no worries – the sage mode.

Instructor Yu Xuan also withdrew her hand. Although her expression didn’t change much, her heartbeat had already soared to the limit.

What had she done? It was simply too shameless! She actually did that in front of a student—

Would Yan Zhen think she was a promiscuous woman?

“Instructor, Instructor!”

Hearing Mi Xue’er’s call, Instructor Yu Xuan came back to her senses and found that the three little girls had already stopped making a ruckus and were looking at her.

She tried to remain calm and said in her usual tone, “I’m listening. What do you want to say?”

Mi Xue’er straightened her back and said seriously, “Reporting to the instructor, I wanted to say, don’t shrink in the corner. Come over and bond with us. We’ll give you a shoulder massage and leg rub, okay? We guarantee to serve you comfortably.”

Yan Ruyu walked a little closer. “Instructor, are you still angry? Next time, I won’t let Xue’er barge in. Please forgive us.”

Yan Meng’er showed anticipation in her eyes. “Instructor Yu Xuan…”

Instructor Yu Xuan’s head was already big. She wasn’t angry, she just couldn’t leave!

“I appreciate your kind intentions. However, I want to soak quietly for a while. You don’t need to mind me.”

The three girls looked at each other, thinking that Instructor Yu Xuan wasn’t quite right today.

No matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn’t imagine that their respected instructor was currently sitting on Yan Zhen’s legs. Although her expression was no different, her heart was extremely nervous.

Losing the mood to play, the three girls saw that Instructor Yu Xuan seemed to be in a low mood and were sensible enough not to disturb her.

“We’ll go out first. Let’s have a girls’ night before going to bed. Instructor, do you want to join?”

“I’ll see later.”

“Then we’ll be going. Instructor, don’t soak for too long either.”

The three girls left one after another.

Click, the door to the shower room was opened and closed again. Instructor Yu Xuan still didn’t dare to let her guard down until the three girls had changed their clothes and walked out of the changing room. Only then did she let out a big sigh of relief.

She quickly got up from Yan Zhen’s legs and distanced herself from him, saying, “Alright, Yan Zhen, you should leave too.”

Yan Zhen scratched his head. “Instructor, why don’t you leave first? My, my legs are cramping.”

Instructor Yu Xuan was stunned for a moment, then realized that she had been sitting on his legs for so long that he definitely couldn’t walk.

“Sorry, am I… very heavy?”

“Huh?”

What kind of logic was this?

“No, Instructor, I didn’t mean to say you’re heavy. I just… I, I’ll leave first then.”

Yan Zhen couldn’t explain anymore and simply chose to run away.

He supported his body with both hands on the pool edge and forcibly stood up.

However, his feet were still cramping. The muscles in his legs seemed to have solidified into twists, and the sharp pain made it very difficult for him to stand.

Just as he was about to lift his leg and step out of the bathtub, Yan Zhen felt that one leg couldn’t exert any strength. His body tilted and he fell backward.

Splash.

Water splashed everywhere, and waves of water rippled, hitting Instructor Yu Xuan behind him.

“Yan Zhen, are you alright?” Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart tightened. Not caring about being naked or the propriety between men and women, she quickly swam forward and supported Yan Zhen from behind.

At this time, with his legs in severe pain, Yan Zhen didn’t have the mood to feel the instructor’s softness. He only showed an apologetic smile. “Sorry, Instructor, I’ll go out right away.”

“Wait, let me clear your meridians first.” Instructor Yu Xuan’s eyes were full of worry. She carried Yan Zhen to sit on the pool edge, then squatted in front of him. She circulated water mystic power and wrapped it around her hands, massaging his calves.

Water and wood attribute mystic powers both had certain effects on healing injuries. Instructor Yu Xuan had also learned healing techniques. The water mystic power seeped into Yan Zhen’s legs bit by bit, and the pain that felt like twisted muscles quickly eased.

Feeling Instructor Yu Xuan’s small hands pressing and kneading on his legs, the cooling sensation brought by the water mystic power forming a sharp contrast with the warmth of the surrounding pool water, Yan Zhen only felt exceptionally comfortable.

“Feeling better?”

Instructor Yu Xuan raised her head. Coincidentally, the evil dragon was also raising its head.

Her beautiful eyes widened, and then she angrily threw down Yan Zhen’s big pig trotters, turning around.

“If you’re okay, hurry up and leave.”

Yan Zhen was also very embarrassed, but he was sitting on the pool edge while Instructor Yu Xuan was squatting in the pool. The angle was too good, almost seeing everything. So it opened for the second time.

He felt that his rationality was on the verge of disappearing. If he didn’t leave, facing such a tender and juicy beautiful instructor, he didn’t know what would happen.

Run, run~

“Then I’ll be going. See you later, Instructor.”

13 Instructor, We’re Coming In

The two of them spoke at the same time, then fell silent simultaneously.

After a brief contemplation, Yan Zhen understood the cause and effect.

He had fallen asleep and drowned in the bathtub, getting pulled into the crystal space. Instructor Yu Xuan thought he had finished washing, so she went to wash next. Then he happened to wake up and came out of the crystal space, running into her.

This mess was his fault.

The female lead was taking a bath, and the male lead accidentally barged into the bathroom, catching a glimpse of the female lead’s spring scenery.

This was a common fanservice scene in harem novels.

But this wasn’t a harem novel, but a carefree novel without a female lead! There was no such plot in the script at all. It was the consequence of his operation error.

–He had deviated from the script again!

“…”

Instructor Yu Xuan was extremely embarrassed. Although she liked Yan Zhen, it didn’t mean she could accept being seen naked by him.

At this time, she was half-squatting in the water, her legs tightly closed, her arms desperately covering her breasts. But they were too big to be fully covered, instead squeezing out a tantalizing shape, even more seductive.

She looked at Yan Zhen, not quite understanding why he was still in the bathtub. Shouldn’t he have finished washing and returned to his room? There was no sound at all when she came in earlier. Could it be–

“Yan Zhen, don’t tell me you were deliberately hiding in the water, waiting for us to come in?”

She bit her lip, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

Holy crap, I’m being wronged! Yan Zhen hurriedly explained, “I wasn’t, I didn’t. This was an accident! I was a bit drunk, so I slept for a while, not expecting…”

Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart relaxed. She naturally believed his explanation, and it made sense too.

Fortunately, Yan Zhen wasn’t that kind of lowly scum. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t know what to do.

Because if he forcefully took her, she might not resist too violently.

“Then can you go out first? If they see us like this, there will be misunderstandings.”

“I’ll leave right away!”

Yan Zhen felt greatly relieved and turned to walk out of the bathtub.

Seeing him so decisive, Instructor Yu Xuan inexplicably felt a trace of reluctance and resentment.

Although it was embarrassing, such a rare opportunity to be alone with him.

Moreover, was her body that unattractive that he didn’t even spare an extra glance?

She subconsciously called out, “Wait, Yan Zhen!”

Yan Zhen’s footsteps paused. Without turning his head, his face facing away from Instructor Yu Xuan was filled with nervousness.

–She wouldn’t beat me up to vent her anger, right?

“What’s the matter, Instructor?”

“No, nothing.” Instructor Yu Xuan’s courage instantly dissipated. She changed her words, “Be careful when you go out. Don’t let them see you, otherwise it will arouse suspicion.”

Yan Zhen nodded like a pecking chicken. “I will, I will… Then I’m leaving?”

Instructor Yu Xuan made an “mm” sound.

Just at this moment, the door to the changing room was pushed open with a bang, followed by Mi Xue’er’s rambunctious voice, “Instructor Yu Xuan, we’re coming to wash with you~~~”

Holy shit!

Yan Zhen, who was about to step out of the shower room, hurriedly retracted his leg and looked out through the door crack, only to see Mi Xue’er leading Yan Ruyu and Yan Meng’er in.

“Xue’er, this isn’t very good, right? The instructor will be angry.”

“It’s fine. The instructor isn’t that petty. Besides, I just want everyone to soak in the bath together, that’s why I had the bathtub made a bit bigger.”

“That’s right, Elder Sister. We’re all girls, you can’t still be shy, right?”

“Meng’er’s words resonate with me deeply. Hurry up and take off your clothes!”

Seeing the three girls starting to undress, Yan Zhen gently closed the door and quickly retreated to the edge of the bathtub, turning to Instructor Yu Xuan, gesturing for her to say something.

Instructor Yu Xuan was also scared. Only after receiving Yan Zhen’s eye signal did she react, loudly saying, “Xue’er, you’re not allowed to come in, otherwise I’ll be angry!”

Outside the door, Yan Ruyu showed a worried expression and advised, “Let’s not go in. If we anger Instructor Yu Xuan, there won’t be anything good for us.”

But Mi Xue’er was unwilling to give up like this. She liked to stick close to people she was familiar with. Since childhood, she loved to cling to her mother and aunts. The many female relatives of the Mi family had a very good relationship with her.

“It’s not the first time. You’re still saying that. I won’t agree, Instructor Yu Xuan! Unless you’re doing embarrassing things inside.”

Instructor Yu Xuan was really going to be angered to death by this Mi Xue’er, always coming up with ideas and daring to say anything.

She glanced at Yan Zhen’s reaction and saw him looking at his nose, nose looking at his mouth, mouth looking at his heart, only feeling her face heating up.

“Anyway, you’re not allowed to come in. Otherwise, the training volume will double after school starts!”

“I believe Instructor Yu Xuan won’t abuse public power for personal gain.”

Mi Xue’er chuckled, already stripped naked, wrapping her body with a white towel, her hair also coiled up.

Yan Ruyu and Yan Meng’er also wrapped their delicate bodies with towels. However, Yan Ruyu let down her ponytail, gathering it to one side, while Yan Meng’er casually made a bun.

“Alright, let’s go in together– Instructor, we’re coming in~”

Inside the shower room, Yan Zhen and Instructor Yu Xuan were both extremely anxious, but the shower room was empty, with no place to hide at all.

Click, the door was opened. Instructor Yu Xuan no longer cared about any sense of shame. She grabbed Yan Zhen’s wrist and pulled him back into the pool, letting him hide in the corner, only his head exposed to breathe. Then she sat on his legs, using her own body as a cover.

Bath salts had been added to the pool water, presenting a bluish-green color, making it difficult to see clearly underwater. As long as they didn’t get too close, it would be hard to discover that there was another person behind her.

After doing all this, just in time, Mi Xue’er opened the door and walked in together with Yan Ruyu and Yan Meng’er.

“Silly girl, you’re not even listening to what I say anymore, huh?” Instructor Yu Xuan pretended to be angry. “You two as well, how could you follow Xue’er to make trouble.”

Mi Xue’er wasn’t afraid at all. “Oh, Instructor Yu Xuan, today is Sister Meng’er’s first day moving in. We’re all soaking in the bath together to connect with each other. Isn’t it great?”

Yan Meng’er smiled sweetly. “Instructor, can I go in and soak with you?”

Yan Ruyu also shyly scratched her cheek, then looked at Instructor Yu Xuan expectantly, the meaning self-evident.

Instructor Yu Xuan secretly sighed and said helplessly, “Come in, all of you. But be well-behaved and don’t make trouble.”

Mi Xue’er readily agreed, but boldly tore off her towel, lightly leaped, and jumped into the pool, splashing a circle of water.

Yan Ruyu and Yan Meng’er were much more elegant. After untying their towels, they quickly stepped into the bathtub and sat down.

Feeling the relaxation brought by the hot water and bath salts, the three girls exhaled in unison.

“How does it feel, Sister Meng’er?”

“It’s very comfortable~”

“Right? When I’m free, I like to soak in the bath. But the one who soaks most diligently is still Instructor Yu Xuan. It’s precisely because of this bathroom that she agreed to live here– right, Instructor?”

The gazes of the three girls all looked at her. Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty, afraid that they would notice something amiss. She subconsciously shifted her jade buttocks.

“Mmph!”

An excessively soft, smooth, and bouncy sensation came from his legs, causing Yan Zhen behind her to let out a muffled grunt, nearly scaring Instructor Yu Xuan.

–Don’t make a sound.

She secretly transmitted her voice.

With Mystic Master cultivation, mystic power could be released externally. High-star Mystic Masters could wrap their voice in mystic power and secretly transmit it to others’ ears.

“Instructor?”

Instructor Yu Xuan pretended to be indifferent. “I shouldn’t have lived here. I’m always irritated by you.”

“Don’t say that, Instructor. I know I was wrong. Isn’t that enough?”

Mi Xue’er pouted aggrievedly and swam towards her.

12 Beautiful Master Sneaking Snacks

The hot water spraying from the faucet poured down on Instructor Yu Xuan’s body, producing thick white steam that vaguely covered her nearly fully ripe, enchanting figure, creating a hazy beauty.

Her princess braid hairstyle was untied and re-coiled, tied behind her head with a towel, revealing her swan-like elegant neck and crystal-clear jade-like ears.

The scalding water flowed all over her body. Her already moist and glossy skin was soaked, revealing a healthy and sexy pink, making it appear even more tender and smooth.

She slightly raised her delicate chin, her face showing a hint of intoxication. Her hands roamed from her shoulders and arms to her waist, then to her breasts and back.

After a simple rinse, Instructor Yu Xuan turned off the running faucet and stepped into the nearby bathtub, sitting down. The water level just submerged her chest, hiding most of her spring scenery.

Leaning against the stone pillow made of volcanic rock, she lightly exhaled, her expression gradually relaxing.

Instructor Yu Xuan cultivated water-attribute mystic power and had a more water-friendly physique, so she greatly enjoyed soaking in baths.

Immersing her body in water, feeling the coolness or warmth of the water, her mood would settle down.

It had always been like this, with the only exception being now.

“…”

Thinking that she was soaking in the water that Yan Zhen had just soaked in, Instructor Yu Xuan couldn’t help but let her imagination run wild, her body heating up in waves.

It was as if Yan Zhen hadn’t left and was sitting beside her, intimately bathing together like a couple.

“Instructor, you’re so beautiful~”

The pure-hearted young man was attracted by her fully ripe jade body, unable to restrain himself for a moment, and embraced her in his arms.

But she, considering her face as an instructor and the reservation of a young lady, shyly shook her head and said, “Yan Zhen, we can’t~”

But the young man was passionate. How could he listen? He forcefully kissed her, greedily taking and possessing her, turning her into his.

As the shameful images flashed in her mind, Instructor Yu Xuan hurriedly shook her head, shaking off the unrealistic delusions.

“I really… obviously I shouldn’t, sigh~”

In her previous life, she had watched him get married and let go. Why did she become infatuated again after being reborn?

–Because she felt she had a chance now.

“I, I didn’t think that way at all!”

She immediately denied it, as if to convince herself, strengthening her tone. After saying that, she weakly lowered her head.

“In the end, why was I reborn? Is it to make up for this regret? I actually haven’t let go in my heart at all?”

What should she do…

The gentle and mature beautiful instructor was now as troubled as a green young girl who had just fallen in love.

Suddenly, she touched a hard object in the water. She grabbed it and took it out to look, only to find that it was a colorful, semi-transparent small crystal.

“What is this? It’s so beautiful. There’s a string too. Could it be a pendant?”

…

Yan Zhen’s sleep was actually not deep. The main reason was that he sank as soon as he fell asleep. The pain of drowning stimulated his consciousness. Then, a different kind of pleasure was also awakening his senses, so Yan Zhen woke up.

His nose smelled the unique faint fragrance of his beautiful master’s body, and his head also felt the soft and bouncy sensation he was very familiar with.

It was his beautiful master’s lap pillow!

Opening his eyes to look, it was indeed so. The extremely oppressive peaks blocked his vision, preventing him from seeing his beautiful master’s face.

However, he saw his beautiful master’s hand placed at the corner of her mouth, a small tender tongue lightly sliding over her fingers and between them.

Yan Zhen was stunned for a moment, then reacted. His beautiful master was actually licking her fingers!

He was so surprised that his eyes widened.

Yan Zhen had never thought that his beautiful master would make such a movement. Her little tongue roamed back and forth between her five fingers, like a kitten washing its paws, a bit silly and cute, completely different from her usual otherworldly temperament.

It was cute indeed, but why did his beautiful master do this? Could it be… she was secretly eating some snacks?

Thinking this way, Yan Zhen found his beautiful master even more adorable. He accidentally laughed out loud.

Chen Xi heard the sound and put down her hand with lightning speed, her cheeks dyed with a faint blush.

She slightly bent over and lowered her head to look, just in time to meet Yan Zhen’s gaze.

Yan Zhen blinked and obediently said, “Greetings, Master.”

Chen Xi put on a stern face, her pair of beautiful eyes staring straight at him, coldly saying, “You, you saw?”

Yan Zhen immediately shook his head like a drum. With his beautiful master’s temperament, she definitely didn’t want people to discover her childlike side.

“I just woke up and didn’t see anything!”

Chen Xi felt slightly relieved, but still confirmed, “Really?”

Yan Zhen nodded vigorously and pretended to ask, “What was Master doing just now?”

Chen Xi coughed and returned to her usual indifference, saying, “Nothing much. Just checking my palm lines out of boredom.”

Yan Zhen nodded thoughtfully and sat up. The robe covering his body slid down, revealing his bare upper body, feeling chilly.

Yan Zhen was stunned for a moment. Only after taking a closer look did he realize that he wasn’t wearing clothes. At the same time, he also remembered that he was just soaking in the bath and seemed to have fallen asleep.

He hurriedly picked up the robe to wrap around his lower body, his face flushed, and asked, “Master, how did I come in?”

Hearing this, the corners of Chen Xi’s mouth curved up, and she briefly explained.

“Fell asleep while soaking in the bath and drowned?”

After hearing it, Yan Zhen became even more embarrassed. Drowning while taking a bath, how could that be? The protagonist’s coolness had all been dropped by him. My god, would the character setting collapse?

[Ding! System’s warm reminder: The character setting has collapsed a little. Please re-establish it through showing off and slapping faces.]

Holy crap!

Yan Zhen’s heart trembled.

If something went wrong, then all his acting these days would be in vain. It wasn’t a key plot point, so he didn’t know if he could restart.

“Sorry, Master, for disturbing you. I’ll go back now.”

Yan Zhen hurriedly got up. Without waiting for Chen Xi to answer, he activated the Star Shifting Fire Seal and fled.

Seeing him leave, Chen Xi also felt relieved. She raised her right hand that still had traces remaining and felt guilty.

She almost got exposed.

If he found out, she couldn’t continue being his master anymore.

…

In the bathtub, Instructor Yu Xuan carefully examined the colorful crystal, quickly thinking that it might have fallen off when Yan Zhen was soaking in the bath.

“I’ll take it and return it to him. His room is in the side house.”

Thinking of going to Yan Zhen’s room, Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart heated up. She didn’t plan to continue soaking either.

As soon as she stood up, suddenly, the colorful crystal in her hand shone brightly, so bright that she could hardly open her eyes.

“What?”

The light quickly dissipated, and Yan Zhen returned to the bathtub, seeing Instructor Yu Xuan in front of him, naked, hair coiled up, and still holding his pendant. He was instantly stunned.

Instructor Yu Xuan’s eyes also regained vision. Seeing Yan Zhen in front of her, bare-chested, dumbfounded, and her holding his pendant, she was equally stunned.

Their eyes met, and the scene seemed to freeze.

“Ahh!!!”

“Wahh!!!”

Two screams sounded at the same time, overlapping and echoing in the empty bathroom.

The two of them simultaneously covered their chests and sank into the water, their movements almost identical. Then they spoke in unison:

“Yan Zhen, you–”

“Instructor, you–”

The two paused, seeming to want to let the other speak first, but seeing the other’s pause, they continued:

“–Why haven’t you left yet?”

“–Why are you here?”

11 Drowning in the Bathtub

Both Mi Xue’er and Instructor Yu Xuan were reincarnators with excellent temperament control. Only a trace of unusual color flashed across their faces before they pretended nothing had happened and withdrew their chopsticks.

Yan Zhen, who was focused on eating, didn’t notice anything. He just said a word of thanks and then stuffed the pork elbow and diced chicken into his mouth one after another, munching on them. Then he gulped down a mouthful of sweet wine. With wine and meat, he was feeling great.

Yan Meng’er, who had witnessed this scene, became vigilant.

Instructor Yu Xuan was an elder, so she wouldn’t consider her for now, but Sister Xue’er seemed a bit suspicious.

Although Mi Xue’er had always been an enthusiastic and lively person, she had always been very sensible. To avoid misunderstandings, she wouldn’t be so intimate with the opposite sex.

Even though Yan Zhen had the relationship of Yan Ruyu and her, Mi Xue’er’s attitude was still a bit too enthusiastic.

Yan Meng’er remembered that in the previous life, Sister Xue’er had been strategizing for her elder cousin, teaching her how to capture Cousin Yan Zhen’s heart. She had never had intimate contact with Cousin Yan Zhen, but had maintained an appropriate distance very well.

But now it seemed different.

Yan Meng’er made a mental note.

She planned to break through to a new relationship with Cousin Yan Zhen together with her elder cousin before he graduated. Now it seemed that the plan needed to be accelerated, otherwise they might face more competitors.

Yan Meng’er glanced at her elder cousin and found that her expression was normal, not finding anything inappropriate at all.

The girl was instantly speechless. Her elder cousin was really too careless, not having any sense of vigilance at all. She would have to remind her later to prevent future troubles.

After all, when a best friend makes a move, it makes you uncomfortable.

Unlike her, this cousin, besides feeling distressed for her brother, would also feel distressed for her elder cousin.

However, she didn’t know that there was a voice constantly reminding Yan Ruyu in her mind:

Her good best friend Mi Xue’er also had secret feelings for Yan Zhen, but for her sake, she had buried her own feelings and fully assisted her. This time, she had to be happy together with her best friend.

Yan Ruyu couldn’t understand these words, only feeling it was strange. Moreover, she didn’t quite believe that Mi Xue’er also liked Yan Zhen, because Mi Xue’er had said that she liked older and more mature boys. Yan Zhen obviously didn’t meet the criteria.

After the small episode, the atmosphere became lively again. The four women ate and chatted, occasionally taking turns feeding Yan Zhen who was only focused on eating.

Each time they fed him, the four women had their own thoughts.

After eating their fill, the four women were slightly tipsy, their cheeks flushed, their eyes moist, looking even more charming than usual.

Yan Zhen felt a bit dizzy. Although the sweet wine wasn’t high in alcohol content, he had been drinking while eating meat. He ate a lot of meat and also drank a lot of wine. Coupled with his poor alcohol tolerance, he was already quite drunk.

The four women swiftly cleared the dining table and told Yan Zhen to go to the bathroom to take a bath.

Yan Zhen blinked dazedly a few times, his speech a bit slurred. “Is there a bathroom here?”

In this world, very few families built bathrooms. Usually, it was a shower stall + bathtub setup.

The mansion opposite didn’t have one. In the script, it was written that when he bathed, he soaked in a tub.

Mi Xue’er smiled charmingly. “I specially had someone build it. Not only did they dig a bathtub inside, but there’s also a mystic tool faucet for showering. First use the faucet to clean your body, then you can go soak in the bathtub. You can add bath salts to the bathtub, which can relieve fatigue very well. Go try it out.”

It sounded very modern.

Following Mi Xue’er’s instructions, Yan Zhen staggered to the bathroom and looked around with drowsy drunken eyes, nodding repeatedly.

Then he took off his clothes on the spot, tossing them around like a child, and walked naked under the faucet, turning on the equipment.

The faucet spewed out hot water, pouring down on his head. The warm sensation was very comfortable, but it also made his head even more muddled.

After showering for a while, Yan Zhen turned off the faucet and plunged into the bathtub filled with hot spring water. He leaned on a stone pillow made of volcanic rock and let out a contented sigh.

–Feels good~

–Don’t need to think about anything, just be a salted fish

–Gazing at the stars.jpg

Without realizing it, Yan Zhen fell asleep.

His body tilted and he fell into the bathtub.

Gurgle gurgle, vaguely, he was drowning.

Survival instinct made Yan Zhen about to wake up. However, the “Star Shifting Fire Seal” on his palm suddenly lit up, and his entire body was pulled into the crystal space, leaving only the iridescent crystal pendant suspended in the bathtub.

The uncomfortable feeling disappeared, replaced by a soft and fluffy “pillow”. Yan Zhen instantly fell into an even deeper sleep.

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment. She had originally thought that her disciple had encountered some crisis, causing the Star Shifting Fire Seal to automatically activate and bring him in to take refuge. She didn’t expect that he had actually gotten drunk and drowned in the bathtub.

–What a silly disciple.

Seeing him lying comfortably on her lap with his bare upper body, his fair sleeping face revealing a hint of innocence, Chen Xi felt her heart melting bit by bit.

–So cute.

Chen Xi adjusted Yan Zhen’s position to make him more comfortable, but it caused the restless fellow to reveal his ferocious side.

Her cheeks heated up, her heart pounding faster. A primal desire also began to surge in her full bosom, causing her gaze to stay there, unmoving.

–This is too spirited.

After a brief consideration, Chen Xi still stretched out her hand and firmly grasped it.

The black sleeve fell, covering the embarrassing scene.

Chen Xi caressed his restlessness while gazing at Yan Zhen’s sleeping face. Unable to hold back, she lowered her head and softly kissed him.

In his sleep, Yan Zhen seemed to be particularly enjoying it. The corners of his mouth curled up, and his nasal cavity occasionally emitted low hums like sleep talk, teasing Chen Xi’s emotions.

After the four women cleaned up the dining room, they sat on chairs to rest for a while.

“It’s been so long, Little Brother Yan Zhen should have finished washing and returned to his room. Let’s also take turns to wash.” Mi Xue’er stretched out a big lazy stretch, her delicate body straining against her dress, her curves fully exposed. “Instructor worked the hardest in the kitchen, so let the instructor go first.”

Instructor Yu Xuan had originally wanted to politely yield to the newly arrived Yan Meng’er, but then she thought that Yan Zhen had just used the bathroom. Her heart heated up and she didn’t refuse.

“Then I’ll go first.”

Mi Xue’er suddenly said, “Instructor, can I wash together with you?”

Instructor Yu Xuan gave her a side-eye and ruthlessly replied with two words.

“No.”

Arriving at the bathroom, Instructor Yu Xuan saw men’s clothing scattered in the changing room, obviously all belonging to Yan Zhen.

“How did he take them off everywhere? He’s not a child anymore.”

She bent down and picked up the clothes from the floor one by one. When she picked up the last piece, which was the pair of boxer briefs, her movement paused and her expression became strange.

–No, no, no, what am I thinking? It’s just a pair of underwear.

She swiftly picked it up and put all the clothes into the laundry basket.

The door to the shower room was open, and there was no trace of Yan Zhen inside. Obviously, he had already finished washing and returned to his room.

–The water in the bathtub that he just soaked in…

Thinking of this, Instructor Yu Xuan’s cheeks started to heat up again. She slowly took off her dress, folded it neatly, then spread out a towel to cover her graceful naked body and walked in with elegant steps.

10 Beautiful Master’s Alchemy Technique

The group left the academy and prepared to return home to celebrate Yan Zhen and Yan Meng’er’s enrollment and moving in.

Mi Xue’er had originally planned to buy some good wine and dishes from the restaurant to take back, but Instructor Yu Xuan said she wanted to show off her cooking skills, making Mi Xue’er and Yan Ruyu’s eyes light up. So the five of them made a trip to the market, bought a bunch of ingredients, and carried them home.

Naturally, it was Yan Zhen who carried them. He was happy to do so because they bought a lot of meat and seafood.

After returning to the mansion, the four women went to the kitchen to busy themselves, telling Yan Zhen to obediently wait in his room.

Yan Zhen was happy to have some free time. He returned to his room, closed the door, then activated the “Star Shifting Fire Seal” on his palm and entered the crystal space.

Chen Xi was meditating in the center of the altar as usual.

Her face was holy, her expression dignified. Her silver-white hair naturally fell, the ends of her hair that trailed on the ground slightly spread out, like a silver waterfall falling into a pond.

She was still wearing a black long-sleeved dress. The belt tightly bound her slender waist, making her already huge breasts appear even larger and more voluminous, highly lifting up the lapel of her clothes, as if they were about to burst out. The corner exposed at the intersection of the lapels was as white as a focal point, attracting the gaze.

Her fair hands stretched out from the sleeves, placed on her lower abdomen, forming a hand seal of calming the mind.

Unfortunately, her bare feet under the dress couldn’t be seen.

–Beautiful Master indeed looks very good.

“Master.”

Yan Zhen softly called out.

Chen Xi had long sensed her disciple’s arrival, but seeing him quietly observing her, she pretended not to know. Only when she heard his voice did she open her black and white distinct eyes and exit her cultivation state.

“Finished with the enrollment procedures?”

“All done. Classes officially start tomorrow.” A trace of desire flashed in Yan Zhen’s eyes. “Can Master teach me the Dao of Alchemy first?”

“Alchemy cultivation is not like mystic power cultivation. In addition to needing mystic power to support it, the divine soul also needs to pass.”

Yan Zhen blinked. “Did I pass then?”

Chen Xi lightly nodded her head and faintly smiled. “Zhen’er, your divine soul is strong, far surpassing ordinary people. But to use it in alchemy, you still need to learn the divine soul technique. Although the Imperial Blaze Art has a divine soul chapter, it’s not a technique that starts from the beginning. Come closer. This master will impart to you a specialized divine soul cultivation technique.”

Yan Zhen quickly moved in front of his beautiful master, closed his eyes, raised his head, and waited for his beautiful master to impart the technique.

Chen Xi stretched out her delicate hand and held Yan Zhen’s head. Seeing his appearance that seemed to be asking for a kiss up close, the love in her heart began to surge, wanting to take the opportunity to give him a kiss.

“Master?”

Yan Zhen, who had waited for a long time, opened his eyes and voiced his doubt.

Chen Xi came back to her senses. She placed her forehead against Yan Zhen’s forehead. As the divine soul light spots lit up, a divine soul cultivation technique slowly transmitted into Yan Zhen’s mind.

Actually, Yan Zhen had always been puzzled. In the script, when his beautiful master imparted techniques to him, she just needed to point a finger at his glabella. But in reality, she had to touch foreheads. It wasn’t that he disliked it, just that it was quite troublesome.

After the technique transmission was completed, three big characters suddenly appeared in Yan Zhen’s mind:

Ancestral Talisman Scripture

This was a technique that strengthened the divine soul by drawing special talisman patterns in the sea of consciousness. There were nine talisman patterns in total, respectively the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, plus the four phenomena of wind, rain, cloud, and thunder.

When the nine talismans were completed and gathered into one, the ancestral talisman would be formed.

At that time, the sea of consciousness would transform into a boundless divine sea. The divine soul could freely change forms and even rush out of the domain to roam the vast universe.

“Ancestral Talisman Scripture, how profound.”

Yan Zhen couldn’t help but sigh.

“The Ancestral Talisman Scripture may not be the most powerful divine soul technique in this world, but it is the most suitable for alchemists. Its five elements and four phenomena talisman patterns can meet the needs of various aspects of alchemy.”

Chen Xi continued, “Zhen’er, you should first learn the Fire Talisman among them. The Fire Talisman is the most widely used talisman pattern, applicable to both pill refining and tool refining. Moreover, it also matches your mystic power very well. The origin fire of the Fire Talisman also has the might of extreme flames. If you can’t find extreme flames to refine for a while later, you can use the talisman fire as a lower-level substitute.”

Yan Zhen seriously nodded. His obedient learning attitude made Chen Xi feel extremely gratified and affectionate, always wanting to give him some “special rewards”.

“Draw the Fire Talisman with yellow paper and vermilion. If the calligraphy can self-ignite after successfully drawing the pattern, it can be considered as having entered the door. This master will also start teaching you alchemy.”

“I understand, Master.”

“By the way, cultivating the divine soul and alchemy requires a large amount of money. Zhen’er, you need to be mentally prepared.”

“Master doesn’t need to worry. I have a lot of private savings.”

Yan Zhen, who had hundreds of millions of funds, was full of confidence.

Chen Xi smiled without saying anything. In her mind, she was planning how to remind her precious disciple that he could earn money from her.

She had accidentally integrated into the fire refining starry space and became the realm spirit. Among her personal savings, the money part had never been used. If Yan Zhen needed it, she could give it to him. But she couldn’t give it to him for free. He had to “filially respect” her more in order to get it.

Thinking of the image of Yan Zhen eagerly massaging her shoulders and legs, Chen Xi’s cold immortal face couldn’t help but reveal a knowing smile.

Yan Zhen didn’t think too much. His mind was completely focused on the Ancestral Talisman Scripture, slowly comprehending it.

Cultivating the Ancestral Talisman Scripture was also a key plot point. Moreover, just like the Imperial Blaze Art, if he failed, he would have to restart!

Time passed bit by bit. Yan Zhen was almost immersed in his comprehension until his beautiful master reminded him that someone outside was calling him.

Yan Zhen exited his comprehension state and left the crystal space, only to find that it was already dark.

The one calling him was Yan Meng’er, saying that it was time to eat.

Yan Zhen opened the door and followed Yan Meng’er to the dining room. Several dishes were already placed on the table, and Yan Ruyu and Mi Xue’er were still bringing out more dishes.

By the time Instructor Yu Xuan brought out the last dish, the round wide table was completely filled with nearly twenty cold and hot dishes.

“Time to eat!”

Mi Xue’er, the host, announced loudly.

The five of them sat down. Mi Xue’er and Yan Ruyu sat on both sides of Instructor Yu Xuan, while Yan Meng’er still stuck close to Yan Zhen.

Mi Xue’er diligently poured sweet wine for everyone, then raised her glass and said, “The main chef for tonight’s meal is Instructor Yu Xuan. Let’s first toast her and thank the instructor for showing off her skills!”

Instructor Yu Xuan smiled, her brows and eyes gentle. She raised her glass and took a sip of the sweet wine. Her cheeks were immediately dyed with a faint pink.

She was the type who would blush after drinking a little alcohol but wouldn’t get drunk for a long time, as if the wine entering her mouth was only to add a few points of charm to her beauty.

After finishing a glass, Mi Xue’er filled everyone’s glasses again and continued, “The second glass is to celebrate Little Brother Yan Zhen and Sister Meng’er’s successful enrollment and moving in. Not only have they become disciples of Instructor Yu Xuan, but they are also living with us. In the future, we will not only be fellow disciples but also housemates. Please give us your guidance! Cheers!”

After finishing the wine, Instructor Yu Xuan urged, “Everyone, eat quickly. The taste will be worse when it gets cold.”

So Yan Zhen started digging in.

These meats and seafood were all quite expensive because Mi Xue’er knew that Yan Zhen liked to eat them, so she bought more.

As for the reason why Instructor Yu Xuan rarely cooked herself, it was also because she wanted to compensate for saying the wrong things before.

Seeing Yan Zhen eating with his mouth full of oil, both women felt sweet in their hearts, thinking at the same time, “Does this count as capturing his stomach?”

“Yan Zhen, try this pork elbow.”

“Little Brother Yan Zhen, taste this spicy diced chicken.”

Mi Xue’er and Instructor Yu Xuan almost simultaneously put food into Yan Zhen’s bowl, their chopsticks clashing together with a snap.

The two women raised their heads, their eyes meeting. They suddenly came back to their senses, feeling a bit embarrassed for a moment.

–Am I being too obvious?

–Did I expose myself?

9. Absolutely Must Not Be Disliked by Him

The four of them completed the enrollment procedures but didn’t leave. Instead, they stayed in the tent to assist Instructor Yu Xuan.

Instructor Yu Xuan also recovered from her moved state and became calm again, starting to regret once more.

She had originally decided not to accept him as a disciple, so how did she get easily enchanted!

Even if the current Yan Zhen had a tiny bit of admiration for her, so what? Could she take this opportunity to actively seduce her own disciple?

–What about not so actively seducing?

A terrible thought flashed through her mind. Instructor Yu Xuan felt extremely embarrassed and silently cursed herself for being shameless. Yan Zhen was still a child now and also her disciple. How could she use her identity as an instructor to do something that would harm him?

–What if he was actually very willing?

No, no, absolutely not!

No matter what, it was not allowed!

Heaven had given her a chance to start over. She should grasp it well and live for herself, not indulge in romance between men and women.

Since she had already accepted Yan Zhen, she would teach him well and must not have any other thoughts.

Apart from normal teaching contact, she should minimize the time and frequency of meeting him as much as possible.

In this life, she wanted to become an ordinary teacher and student pair with him, respecting and loving each other!

“Instructor? Instructor Yu Xuan?”

Hearing Mi Xue’er’s call, Instructor Yu Xuan collected her thoughts and calmly raised her head. “What’s the matter, Xue’er?”

“Is Instructor Yu Xuan having something on her mind? You’ve been distracted the whole time.”

Mi Xue’er was a bit worried, but Instructor Yu Xuan smiled softly as usual. “What could be on my mind? Don’t overthink it.”

“But Instructor, your pen has been stopped for a long time, almost piercing through the paper.”

Instructor Yu Xuan’s cheeks heated up upon hearing this. She let go of the pen without changing her expression and coughed twice, saying, “The matters here are almost done. Leave the rest to me. You guys can go back first.”

“Instructor Yu Xuan, we’ll wait for you to go back together.” Mi Xue’er suggested, “In the evening, I want to hold a small banquet at home to celebrate the two juniors’ enrollment and welcome them to live with us.”

“You girl, you’re really enthusiastic about this kind of thing… Alright, I’ll end my shift early and go with you then.”

While speaking, Instructor Yu Xuan was tidying up the documents on the table. Suddenly, she paused and turned to Mi Xue’er. “Wait, you just said welcoming ‘them’ to live with us? You, you let Yan Zhen also live with us?”

Mi Xue’er’s expression stiffened. She glanced at Yan Ruyu beside her and nodded.

Instructor Yu Xuan was stunned.

It was different from the development in her previous life again. She remembered that Yan Zhen should have stayed in the dormitory for about a week before moving to the opposite of their place.

No, that wasn’t the point. The point was that she was going to live under the same roof as Yan Zhen.

Not only would they meet at the academy, but they would also run into each other at home. It could be said that they would be together day and night.

It was too “dangerous”!

“He’s a boy. It’s not very good for him to live with us, right?”

“I let Little Brother Yan Zhen live in the side room, separated from the main house where we live. There won’t be any problems.”

“But, this can easily cause gossip and damage the reputation of a young lady. I’m his instructor, Ruyu and Meng’er are his relatives, so it’s still okay. But only you, Xue’er…”

“Let them talk. Little Brother Yan Zhen is handsome and outstanding. Having something with him isn’t a loss~”

“Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about!” Instructor Yu Xuan frowned, her tone becoming stern. “The instructor does not allow you to engage in impure heterosexual interactions!”

“Oh, Instructor Yu Xuan, don’t be angry. I was just saying it. I won’t really do it.” Mi Xue’er skillfully acted coquettishly. “Little Brother Yan Zhen living alone outside is so pitiful. We just happen to have an empty room. Living together and taking care of each other, isn’t that quite good?”

“That’s what you say, but after all, men and women are different. Even if you don’t mind, you still need to properly separate them. If your parents find out that you’re living with a boy, won’t they immediately rush over and question me?”

“I’m not afraid of them.”

“I am!”

Instructor Yu Xuan’s firm attitude was beyond their expectations. Mi Xue’er unhappily puffed up her cheeks.

“The instructor is stingy.”

“Hmm?”

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was wrong, Yan Ruyu hurriedly played the role of a mediator. “Instructor Yu Xuan, this matter was suggested by me. If you want to blame someone, blame me. It has nothing to do with Xue’er. I didn’t consider it thoroughly.”

Yan Meng’er also followed, “It was originally brought up by me. Since Instructor Yu Xuan doesn’t agree, there’s no other way. Meng’er will move out with Cousin then.”

“I’ll move out together too. The three of us will find a new place to live.”

“Meng’er? Ruyu? Don’t. The mansion has finally become lively!”

The situation developed beyond expectations. Yan Zhen was a bit dazed. There was no such plot of disagreement in the script at all!

Oh no, oh no… No, wait!

This was an opportunity to correct the plot. Take the chance to move out and negotiate with the people in the opposite mansion at a high price, letting them transfer the mansion to him. Perhaps it could succeed.

–Instructor Yu Xuan is such a good assist!

Yan Zhen instantly became energized and said indifferently, “You don’t need to do this. I’ll just move out by myself. Instructor Yu Xuan is right. A grown man like me is indeed not suitable to live with you. I’ll find a place to live by myself.”

Mi Xue’er became anxious. “Where can you find a place to live in the North City District now? The other districts are too far from the academy, and it’s very inconvenient to commute. Even if you find one, it’s a waste of time.”

“It’s fine. Before finding a place, I can stay in the dormitory first.” Yan Zhen smiled. “Don’t make it difficult for Instructor Yu Xuan. She’s also considering for your sake.”

–Not only not adding random scenes but also assisting him, Instructor Yu Xuan is too good. How could he make things difficult for her?

Seeing Yan Zhen trying hard to squeeze out a smile, Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart panicked. She suddenly realized her mistake.

The words she said just now, although the reasoning was correct, there was a hint of disdain for Yan Zhen, which would hurt the person involved’s self-esteem.

Yan Zhen had once fallen from a genius to a waste. For three years, he had suffered exclusion and ridicule, causing his mind to be very sensitive. Hearing such words would definitely hurt him. Seeing how forced his smile was, it was clear.

If a gap was created with him from the start and Yan Zhen gradually distanced himself from her because of this…

The more Instructor Yu Xuan thought about it, the more panicked she became. Her chest felt like it was blocked by a stone, extremely uncomfortable.

–No, absolutely must not be disliked by him!

“Wait, I, I agree. Yan Zhen, just live with us. Don’t move out!”

Instructor Yu Xuan said in one breath.

Yan Zhen was happily thinking when he was suddenly stunned by her 180-degree turn. “Huh?”

Mi Xue’er, Yan Ruyu, and Yan Meng’er also looked at Instructor Yu Xuan in surprise. The latter corrected her expression and said, “After careful consideration, the problem isn’t actually that serious. After all, I also live together. As long as I supervise you well, it’ll be fine.”

Hearing this, Yan Ruyu and Yan Meng’er both breathed a sigh of relief, their pretty faces revealing smiles again.

With this, Yan Zhen was sure that he didn’t have to part with them.

“Yay!” Mi Xue’er happily hugged Instructor Yu Xuan’s arm. “Our instructor is the gentlest and best~”

“You and your sweet-talking.” Instructor Yu Xuan gave Mi Xue’er a side-eye. “You were just talking back to me earlier.”

The atmosphere returned to harmony. Only Yan Zhen was still dumbfounded.

–Was he played by Instructor Yu Xuan?

8 Instructor Yu Xuan: He Likes Me

Xiao Shi, seventeen years old, 4-star Mystic Scholar.

Yan Zhen, sixteen years old, 5-star Mystic Scholar.

Xiao Shi, ugly.

Yan Zhen, handsome.

It could be said that he was crushed in all aspects without any dead angles.

Xiao Xinyan finally understood why Instructor Yu Xuan said “it was enough originally, but not enough now”. Her heart was filled with both unwillingness and bitterness.

“Has he, has he been tested?”

Instructor Yu Xuan was not biased. “Not yet, but there’s a spare testing crystal here. You can both come up and test to prevent fakes.”

Yan Zhen nodded. As described in the script, he took the lead and placed his hand on the testing crystal, inputting his mystic power into it.

The testing crystal immediately displayed five shining light spots, and the sixth light spot also faintly appeared, indicating that he already had signs of advancing to 6-star.

After the test, Yan Zhen withdrew his hand and looked at Xiao Shi, making a gesture of invitation.

Xiao Shi no longer had the courage to test, but he was unwilling to accept it. He said, “Realm can’t represent everything. In mystic cultivation, besides cultivating mystic power, one also needs to cultivate mystic techniques. I invested more time in mystic techniques, so my cultivation is slightly lower, but my strength definitely won’t be inferior to any peer!”

He suddenly pointed at Yan Zhen and shouted, “Yan Zhen, I challenge you to a one-on-one duel. Do you dare to accept?!”

Yan Zhen looked at Instructor Yu Xuan. After she agreed, he accepted Xiao Shi’s challenge.

The two came to an empty space outside the tent.

Such a scene also attracted the instructors and students from other tents. They all walked to the tent entrance to watch.

According to the system’s performance requirements, Yan Zhen still had to defeat his opponent within three rounds, so he finished off Xiao Shi in one round.

After all, he was just a 4-star Mystic Scholar.

Although Xiao Shi said he invested more time in mystic techniques, he probably practiced low-grade mystic techniques, so they were useless.

There was another round of shock, gasps, and “this boy is truly extraordinary”.

Yan Zhen was already used to being watched by others and didn’t really care.

Xiao Xinyan dragged the unconscious Xiao Shi and slunk away, glaring fiercely at him before leaving.

Before formally enrolling, Yan Zhen had offended people from the Silver Moon City Lord’s Mansion, the first family, and the second family.

One could only say that it was indeed the protagonist’s treatment. With hatred filled to the brim, it formed external pressure to promote the protagonist’s growth, and at the same time, it was a means to advance the plot.

After the duel ended, looking at the dashing and elegant young man on the field, Instructor Yu Xuan smiled slightly with pride, but couldn’t help the surging thoughts in her mind.

Her coming to the Silver Moon City Mystic Academy to serve as an instructor was a form of training. As long as the disciples she accepted graduated successfully, she could return to the Sacred Land Academy to take up a position.

Accepting Yan Zhen was the fastest choice because he graduated early in less than a year, breaking the record since the Mystic Academy’s establishment a hundred years ago.

But if she accepted him, would she repeat the same mistake and fall in love with him again?

She had no confidence in herself because in her previous life, she had also fell in love with Yan Zhen in a daze. By the time she realized she had fallen into the river of love, it was already difficult to extricate herself.

During that period, she lived in a bit of a daze. What she thought about was not cultivation and teaching, but Yan Zhen.

If they had a slightly more intimate contact during the day, she would dream of them entangled in passion at night when she slept. The next day when she woke up, she had to bathe and change clothes, making her extremely ashamed.

It was better not to accept him, right?

While she was hesitating, the instructors in charge of other tents all gathered around, wanting to accept Yan Zhen as their disciple.

In addition to teaching in class, academy instructors would also accept students they favored as their personal disciples for more guidance and education.

Each instructor could accept up to two disciples a year, and after accepting them, they couldn’t expel them within a year. Therefore, the instructors all wanted to accept talented individuals.

Yan Zhen had the cultivation of a 5-star Mystic Scholar at the age of sixteen. He might be able to graduate early and go to the Sacred Land Academy for further study in two years.

“This outstanding student, join Instructor Niu’s door. The instructor guarantees to cultivate you into an excellent ox-head warrior, attracting wives and concubines from all over.”

“Pah, what’s so good about ox-head warriors? Join Instructor Ma’s door. The instructor can pass on the famous ultimate skill ‘Five Lightning Whips’ to you. Even when facing a two-hundred-pound Yellow Turban strongman, you’ll have nothing to fear.”

“What dogshit ultimate skill is ‘Five Lightning Whips’? Join Instructor Tony’s door. The instructor can definitely give you a haircut of a strong person, taking the lead in momentum!”

“What’s the use of taking the lead in momentum? Can’t you bring out anything practical? Your name is Yan Zhen, right? Join Instructor Julie’s door. The instructor will give you one-on-one ‘night, guidance’, allowing you to quickly ascend~”

Yan Zhen politely declined them.

According to the script, he would be accepted by Instructor Yu Xuan, so no matter how extravagant the other instructors’ words were, he wouldn’t agree.

Only Instructor Yu Xuan was his one and only choice.

“Thank you for the instructors’ favor, but I already have an instructor I admire. I hope the instructors can understand.”

After saying that, his gaze passed through the crowd and directly looked at Instructor Yu Xuan, his eyes carrying a hint of anticipation and a bit of unease.

–Sis, accept me. Don’t change the script, the kid is begging you!

As their eyes met, Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart, which was originally hesitating, trembled. Two seductive spots of pink bloomed on her cheeks.

What, what did he say? The instructor he admired… was it simply wanting to become her disciple, or was there another layer of meaning hidden, making a double entendre?

In her previous life, she hadn’t noticed this detail at all. Now hearing it, she suddenly felt something was off. Moreover, this gaze… Yan Zhen seemed to be very eager to become her disciple!

Even though there were so many instructors for him to choose from on the scene, and some of them clearly offered extremely high treatment, Yan Zhen wasn’t moved at all. He firmly, and even with a hint of pleading, wanted to become her disciple!

–Could it be that the current him actually has a tiny bit of admiration for me?

Instructor Yu Xuan’s spirit lifted!

She was not without awareness of her own charm, knowing that her appearance and temperament were quite attractive to innocent young boys.

During the two years of being an instructor at the Mystic Academy, besides the male instructors, quite a few male students had also confessed to her.

Even when walking on the road, there were some more introverted and shy male students who would secretly cast admiring gazes at her.

There were even people who “greatly defied the natural order” and listed her as the third “campus belle”.

Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart started beating faster. The pounding sound was clear in her ears, making her start to worry if others would discover her abnormality.

–What should I do? I’m so happy!

She tried not to appear too excited and still spoke in her usual gentle tone, “Yan Zhen, are you willing to cultivate under me? As an instructor, I will strive for all available resources to cultivate you well. Moreover, by joining my door, you can also be together with your elder and younger female cousins.”

A task completion notification sounded in his mind. Yan Zhen felt relieved and showed a healthy smile on his face. “The student is willing!”

At this moment, Yu Xuan’s heart was moved again.

/(//o/ω/o//)/

7 To Accept or Not to Accept

“Greetings, Instructor Yu Xuan.”

Yan Meng’er politely bowed. In her previous life, she had a very good relationship with Instructor Yu Xuan. After being reborn and meeting again, naturally there was no unfamiliarity.

“My name is Yan Meng’er, sixteen years old this year, a 2-star Mystic Scholar.”

Instructor Yu Xuan was also very familiar with Yan Meng’er. After all, in her previous life, she was one of her proud disciples. This girl’s talent wasn’t bad, but her mind wasn’t entirely on cultivation and needed her frequent supervision.

However, in her previous life at this time, Yan Meng’er should have only been a 1-star Mystic Scholar, quite a bit away from 2-star. How did she become stronger after being reborn?

Could there be some unpredictable changes in the grand scheme of things…

It had been over a month since she awakened her memories from her previous life, and this was the first time she encountered a development that didn’t match her previous life. She immediately made a mental note of it.

“A sixteen-year-old 2-star Mystic Scholar, a promising talent. You can cultivate under me along with Ruyu.”

Yan Meng’er immediately bowed. “Thank you, Instructor Yu Xuan~ I definitely won’t let you down and will work hard in cultivation.”

Instructor Yu Xuan finally looked at Yan Zhen. Her gentle eyes blinked as she carefully examined his appearance. It seemed like a different emotion was brewing in her pupils.

She had always only accepted female students as disciples. Only when she saw Yan Zhen did she couldn’t help but make an exception, because his talent was simply too good. Even in the Sacred Land Academy where geniuses gathered, he could shine brilliantly.

Yan Zhen was the first male disciple she accepted, and also a disciple she once regretted accepting.

If she hadn’t accepted him as a disciple back then, she wouldn’t have developed feelings for him over time. But considering their teacher-student relationship, she didn’t dare to take the forbidden step and could only bury those feelings deep in her heart.

Fortunately, she wasn’t one of those inexperienced and naive young girls. As time passed, she slowly let go of her longing for him. When he got married, she completely cut off her feelings and sent her sincere blessings as his instructor.

Everything had passed.

It should have been like this.

But now, reliving a second life and seeing Yan Zhen’s handsome face that still carried a bit of immaturity, Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart that had been sealed for many years seemed to stir again.

–Could it be that I haven’t let go yet? How could that be? I no longer have the same heart-pounding feeling for him as back then.

While Instructor Yu Xuan was looking at Yan Zhen, Yan Zhen was also looking at her.

Different from the coldness of his beautiful master, Instructor Yu Xuan’s temperament was gentle, her brows and eyes mild. When she smiled slightly, it made people feel like a warm breeze. That mature charm tempered by the years was like rich wine. Just a little taste left an endless aftertaste.

She wasn’t as devastatingly beautiful as his master, but her skin had a naturally moist and glossy texture, and her figure was not much inferior.

Her breasts were full, her jade-like buttocks plump. The waist between the two was not as thin as a young girl’s. It had just the right amount of flesh that slightly adhered to her clothes, without any excess fat. One could imagine how intoxicating it would be to have one’s arms around her.

To describe Instructor Yu Xuan with a more modern term, she was a “slightly chubby goddess”.

The two quietly gazed at each other for a long time without looking away.

“Instructor Yu Xuan?”

Yan Ruyu’s voice woke up the distracted Instructor Yu Xuan. The latter reacted and hurriedly pretended to clear her throat, saying to Yan Zhen, “What’s your name?”

Becoming Instructor Yu Xuan’s disciple was a very important plot point, so Yan Zhen didn’t dare to be negligent. He lifted his spirits to the fullest and recited his lines.

“In response to the instructor, my name is Yan Zhen, sixteen years old this year, a 5-star Mystic Scholar.”

Even though this was the second time Instructor Yu Xuan heard this result, she couldn’t help but be amazed.

Although in the Sacred Land Academy, there were many people who had the cultivation of a 5-star Mystic Scholar at the age of sixteen, she was very clear that Yan Zhen’s situation was special. He had a three-year gap in cultivation. In fact, he had soared from the 3rd level of Mystic Disciple to 5-star Mystic Scholar in less than a year.

No, this was just a small matter now. Yan Zhen’s future performance would be even more incredible.

So it was understandable for her to make an exception back then.

But now… should she still accept him as a disciple?

To be honest, after accepting Yan Zhen as a disciple in her previous life, she didn’t guide him much in cultivation.

Every once in a while, Yan Zhen would advance a star as if it was a matter of course. The cultivation plan she prepared was basically useless.

If she didn’t accept him, could she avoid being attracted to him again?

But she should have already let go, right? Even if she accepted him, it shouldn’t affect anything.

Just as Instructor Yu Xuan was pondering, a female student suddenly walked in. “Instructor Yu Xuan, I brought a talented person to you, hoping you can accept him as a disciple.”

This girl was another disciple of Instructor Yu Xuan, the eldest daughter of Silver Moon City’s largest family, the Xiao family, Xiao Xinyan, nineteen years old, a 6-star Mystic Scholar.

Xiao Xinyan had a good figure and a sweet appearance, but she was slightly inferior to Mi Xue’er and Yan Ruyu in all aspects. She couldn’t be rated as a campus belle. However, her cultivation was a bit higher than the two girls, so she always loved to sarcastically say that they were “only good-looking, not useful”.

Behind her followed a tall and sturdy young man around seventeen or eighteen years old. He had an honest face, but his squinty eyes were sly. As soon as he entered, his gaze quickly swept over the four girls in the tent, only skipping Yan Zhen. He was obviously a closet pervert.

If Yan Zhen didn’t have the script in hand, he would have had a hard time discovering this point.

After Xiao Xinyan saw the situation in the tent, she quickly understood and sneered, “Mi Xue’er, Yan Ruyu, you also brought someone? Don’t bring some crooked melons and cracked dates to make things difficult for Instructor Yu Xuan.”

However, contrary to Xiao Xinyan’s expectation, Mi Xue’er, who usually didn’t get along with her, didn’t retort this time. Instead, she had the demeanor of watching a show while eating melons, her eyes staring at her in a rather strange manner.

–There was a mentality called “the ease of a reincarnator”.

It was Yan Ruyu who, upon hearing the words “crooked melons and cracked dates”, frowned and sarcastically said, “Who’s a crooked melon and cracked date? Why don’t you look in the mirror?”

Just in terms of appearance, their side was crushing in both males and females.

Xiao Xinyan’s eyes widened, about to flare up. Instructor Yu Xuan spoke up in time, “Xinyan, who’s the one behind you?”

Xiao Xinyan put on a smiling face and introduced, “Instructor Yu Xuan, he’s my cousin, Xiao Shi, just turned seventeen this year, but his cultivation is already at 4-star Mystic Scholar. He didn’t rely on any external force and cultivated by himself. He’s a rare talent. If you accept him as a disciple, he definitely won’t lose face for you!”

“Greetings, Instructor.”

Xiao Shi had a restrained appearance, but the few reborn girls were very clear about his lewd true face. It was Yan Zhen who exposed him in time, and the victim was Xiao Xinyan herself.

Instructor Yu Xuan patiently said, “Xinyan, you should know my rule of not accepting males as disciples. His talent isn’t enough for me to make an exception.”

Xiao Xinyan was stunned. “A seventeen-year-old 4-star Mystic Scholar isn’t enough? There aren’t many in the academy’s hundred-year history.”

Instructor Yu Xuan shook her head. “It would have been enough originally, but now it’s not enough…”

“Why?”

“Because of him.”

Instructor Yu Xuan looked at Yan Zhen again. Xiao Xinyan and Xiao Shi also turned to look at him together.

“…”

Hearing the task notification sound beside his ear, Yan Zhen couldn’t help but complain inwardly: The protagonist of a carefree novel is really either showing off or on the way to show off. Showing off twice during the meal wasn’t enough, and now it’s here again.

–Then let’s have a little show!

6 Instructor Yu Xuan

After eating, the four of them didn’t return home but went to the Mystic Academy to enroll.

Passing through the north city gate and going up the mountain path, a left turn led them to the academy entrance.

Unlike usual, the academy entrance was very lively with a constant stream of people coming and going.

But this wasn’t the place with the most people. The busiest area was the check-in plaza.

The check-in plaza could be described as a sea of people, but it was orderly with rows and columns, not to the point of having no path to walk through.

The enrollment conditions for the Mystic Academy were being under 20 years old and having a cultivation level above Mystic Scholar.

Although the conditions were relatively strict, when expanded to the national scope, there were naturally many people.

However, not all of these people met the enrollment conditions. Some were either over 20 years old or their cultivation was still a step away from Mystic Scholar. They were trying their luck or using connections, or even just coming to show their face.

New students needed to undergo a cultivation test and could only complete the enrollment procedures after meeting the conditions.

The purpose of the cultivation test was not only to prevent some unqualified people from sneaking in, but also to divide the new students into three, six, or nine grades.

The Mystic Academy didn’t divide classes by grade but by cultivation level!

1 to 3-star Mystic Scholars entered the junior class, 4 to 6-star Mystic Scholars entered the intermediate class, and 7 to 9-star Mystic Scholars entered the advanced class.

For the same cultivation level, the younger the age, the greater the potential.

Those with high potential could be assigned to better classes and instructors and obtain more cultivation resources.

Yan Ruyu and Mi Xue’er were both intermediate class students and were in Class 1 together. They were even favored by Instructor Yu Xuan and cultivated under her, making others envious.

Yan Zhen was 16 years old after the New Year and his cultivation had reached 5-star Mystic Scholar. After enrollment, he would also be assigned to the intermediate class and definitely in Class 1.

As for Yan Meng’er, although she had experience from her previous life, she was always thinking about how to capture her cousin and wasn’t attentive enough to cultivation. She was only a 2-star Mystic Scholar now and could only be assigned to the junior class.

Only at this point did she realize that if she wanted to continue walking with Cousin Yan Zhen, just sticking close wasn’t enough. She also had to keep up with his cultivation progress. Otherwise, if he graduated early while she was still in the Mystic Academy, it would be over.

Even if she successfully became his lover, a long-distance relationship could easily be taken advantage of by a vixen.

Although Cousin Yan Zhen was devoted to cultivation, he might not be able to resist a vixen who was both flirtatious and persistent.

–She had to work hard at cultivation.

The queue for the test was very long. By the time it was their turn, it might be dark.

Yan Zhen’s expression wasn’t very good. He greatly disliked queuing. No matter how good the reviews were for a store that required queuing, he was too lazy to go. He also couldn’t understand those hardcore people who queued overnight just to buy a concert ticket or a newly released game console.

Although he hadn’t started queuing yet, just looking at the long queue made him feel uncomfortable.

Yan Meng’er saw Yan Zhen’s bitter gourd face and knew he didn’t like queuing. She hurriedly said, “Elder Sister, Sister Xue’er, do you have any way to let us go faster?”

The two girls glanced at Yan Zhen and saw that his handsome little face seemed to have the four characters “I’m not happy” written on it. They secretly smiled.

Then Mi Xue’er put on the tone of a senior and said, “Of course. I’m a somewhat prominent figure in the academy. Going through the back door is very simple for me!”

Yan Ruyu gave her boastful best friend a side-eye and explained, “Instructor Yu Xuan should also be inside. We can just go find her for help.”

The group bypassed the test queue and directly went to the area behind the check-in plaza where enrollment procedures were handled. There were ten tents set up in a row, each with an instructor on duty.

After searching for a bit, the two girls quickly found the tent No. 7 where Instructor Yu Xuan was. Mi Xue’er, who was born with a social butterfly syndrome, immediately waved at her and said, “Instructor Yu Xuan~ We’re here to see you.”

The shout attracted the attention of many instructors and students. Seeing three great beauties and a handsome young man walking together, their eyes brightened.

Yan Ruyu felt extremely embarrassed being surrounded and watched. She forcefully slapped the silly best friend, gesturing for her not to make a fool of herself here.

The four entered tent No. 7.

Inside the tent was a desk. Sitting behind the desk was a beautiful woman wearing a blue dress and twin ponytails. She had oval glasses, and her brows and eyes behind the lenses were as gentle as ink dots. Her overall temperament appeared knowledgeable and graceful.

It was Yu Xuan, an intermediate class instructor at the Mystic Academy, a graduate of the Sacred Land Academy, with a cultivation level reaching 6-star Mystic Master!

When the four entered, Instructor Yu Xuan had just finished handling the enrollment procedures for a student. After sending her away, she then looked at her disciples, her eyes helpless.

“Xue’er, don’t always shout. You’re at least a lady from the Mi family. Be a bit more reserved.”

The word “reserved” was dragged out very long.

Mi Xue’er shamelessly approached, “I’m very reserved, but when I see the gentle and beautiful Instructor Yu Xuan, I can’t help but get close to you~”

“Sweet-talker. It would be great if you could use this flattering skill on cultivation.” After scolding a few words, Instructor Yu Xuan turned to Yan Ruyu, her beautiful face showing a faint smile, “Ruyu, you’re back. Did you take care of the matters at home?”

Last year, Yan Ruyu took half a month’s leave in advance, saying that there was an urgent matter at home that required her to go back. Because Yan Ruyu had always performed very well, she approved it.

Yan Ruyu felt a bit guilty. There wasn’t really any urgent matter at home. The reason she took leave was because there was occasionally a voice in her head telling her to confess to Cousin Yan Zhen, not to hesitate, to directly attack, and if it didn’t work once, do it again until successful.

How could she do that? But being told that made her heart itch. She always wondered what would happen if she really confessed to Yan Zhen, unable to calm down and cultivate.

After flipping through some books, she found that she might have “lovesickness” and if it continued, she might have “heart demons”, making her both embarrassed and afraid.

The way to relieve lovesickness was to go see the person she missed, so Yan Ruyu found an excuse to take leave and go back to see Yan Zhen.

Feeling Yan Zhen and Yan Meng’er casting strange looks at her, seemingly asking “What matters at home required you to handle?”, Yan Ruyu felt even more guilty. She forced herself to stay calm and said, “It’s, it’s already taken care of… Ahem, Instructor, I’m now a 5-star Mystic Scholar and I’m about to touch the threshold of 6-star Mystic Scholar.”

Instructor Yu Xuan lightly nodded her head and looked Yan Ruyu up and down, “Your aura is indeed quite abundant. You’ll probably be able to advance to 6-star Mystic Scholar in one to two months. It seems you didn’t slack off in cultivation during the break. Worthy of praise.”

“Instructor Yu Xuan, I also advanced to 5-star Mystic Scholar. Praise me too~”

Mi Xue’er took the initiative to ask for praise. Instructor Yu Xuan couldn’t help but laugh, “You also performed well.”

“Hehe, not bad, not bad. Thank you for the instructor’s praise~”

Mi Xue’er acted coy, trying her best to show her reservation as a young lady.

Instructor Yu Xuan didn’t bother with this lively disciple. Her gaze shifted to Yan Zhen and Yan Meng’er behind the two girls and she suddenly froze slightly.

–It’s him.

Yan Ruyu didn’t notice the instructor’s abnormality and introduced in a timely manner, “Instructor, they are my cousin and younger cousin. I brought them over to find you to handle their enrollment procedures.”
