136 Instructor Yu Xuan Schools Her Mother
Seeing her younger aunt speechless, Instructor Yu Xuan couldn’t help but giggle, then she composed herself and greeted her mother, great-aunt, aunt, and younger aunt respectfully.
Yan Zhen also greeted them.
Clan Head Yu Lu looked at her radiant daughter, then at the pale Yan Zhen, her eyebrows slightly raised. “Did you two… cross the line?”
Instructor Yu Xuan replied calmly, “Yes, Mother. I’ve given myself to Yan Zhen.”
These words caused Younger Aunt Dean and Aunt Head Instructor’s expressions to change, and even Grand Elder Great Aunt opened her narrowed eyes, her face serious.
Then, all eyes focused on Yan Zhen. Seeing his pale complexion, they knew something was wrong.
Grand Elder Yu Yan instantly appeared before him, grabbed his wrist without a word, and channeled her Mystic Power into him, probing his condition.
Dean Yu Qing, furious, pointed at Yan Zhen and scolded, “You… you scoundrel! Why couldn’t you control yourself?! You had to harm yourself and others, didn’t you?! You have to make us angry to be satisfied, don’t you?! You idiot!”
Not just her, but even the usually calm and collected Shui Bailan was also enraged. She asked anxiously, “Yu Yan, how is he? Can it be reversed?”
Clan Head Yu Lu’s face was frosty, her silence speaking volumes about her brewing anger.
Then, Grand Elder Yu Yan let out a surprised “Eh?”, breaking the tension.
“What’s going on? Little Yan Zhen seems perfectly fine.”
She opened Yan Zhen’s eyelids, checking the blood vessels in his eyes, then made him open his mouth to examine his tongue, even touching his chest, like a quirky old doctor or a curious child.
Shui Bailan blinked blankly, confused.
When Xuan’er came of age, her grandmother had placed a restriction on her. If she engaged in sexual intercourse with a man before reaching the Mystic King realm, she would absorb his essence, Qi, and spirit, completely crippling him.
This was to protect the heir and prevent unwanted pregnancies before marriage.
“How could he be fine?” Dean Yu Qing grabbed Yan Zhen’s other wrist, channeled her Mystic Power into him, and quickly echoed her older sister’s surprise. “Brat, why aren’t you affected? Bored, so you decided to play a prank on your elders?”
Yan Zhen shrugged, feigning innocence.
Then, Instructor Yu Xuan explained, “I broke the restriction, so Yan Zhen wasn’t affected.”
The three women exchanged glances. Clan Head Yu Lu, still motionless, asked coldly, “You haven’t reached the Mystic King realm yet. How could you break the restriction placed by Mother?”
Instructor Yu Xuan confessed directly, “Don’t be surprised, Mother, but I’m reborn. I’ve returned from the future with my memories.”
“Reborn?”
Even the usually indifferent Clan Head was stunned by these words, as were the Grand Elder, Dean, and Head Instructor.
Reborn? Such a thing rarely even appeared in stories.
“Xuan’er, are you serious?” Shui Bailan asked. “Don’t lie to us.”
Instructor Yu Xuan smiled faintly. “Aunt, I’m not joking. I’m truly reborn, with memories of my past life. Because I reached the Mystic Ancestor realm in my past life, I know how to break the restriction. Not just break it, but also how to apply it. The restriction is derived from the Devouring Water Mystic Skill in the Timely Rain Heavenly Scripture, right?”
Shui Bailan, not a Yu family blood relative and ineligible to cultivate the Timely Rain Heavenly Scripture, quickly looked at her sister-in-law and the others for their reactions.
The three Yu family leaders all looked surprised.
Devouring Water was an Ancestor-level Mystic Skill recorded in the seventh level of the Timely Rain Heavenly Scripture. Logically, Xuan’er shouldn’t know about it, as she was only at the Mystic General realm and could only access up to the fourth level.
“You peeked at the later chapters?”
“I read them in my past life. Do you still not believe me, Mother? Then let me offer more proof.” Instructor Yu Xuan, well-prepared, continued, “For example, the reason why it’s so difficult for our Yu family to produce Mystic Venerables.”
The four beautiful elders’ attention immediately sharpened. This was a long-standing problem that plagued the Yu family.
They had the cultivation technique, abundant resources, and decent talent, yet the highest realm they could reach was peak Mystic Ancestor. They couldn’t advance to Mystic Venerable, making the Yu family’s position awkward. They had a Supreme Elder, yet not a single Mystic Venerable.
There were many theories, but no one knew the true reason.
“Xuan’er, do you really know?”
Instructor Yu Xuan, without keeping them in suspense, explained, her words echoing Chen Xi’s earlier explanation.
Pure Yin couldn’t create, and solitary Yang couldn’t grow. The Yu family, from their constitution to their cultivation techniques, and even their environment, were too Yin-heavy, leading to an extreme, even absolute, Yin state within their bodies, blocking their path forward.
And this extreme, absolute Yin state not only hindered their advancement but also harmed their bodies. As their cultivation stagnated, various ailments would arise.
“For example, Younger Aunt, don’t you often feel cold at night, and sometimes… have certain desires for men, unable to help but… relieve yourself?”
Dean Yu Qing’s face instantly turned crimson. She immediately looked at Yan Zhen, seeing his knowing smirk, and was mortified. “I-I don’t! Xuan’er, don’t talk nonsense!”
Instructor Yu Xuan ignored her and continued, “Great Aunt’s situation is relatively mild, but her skin is overly moisturized, almost slippery to the touch, and you can literally squeeze water out of it.”
Grand Elder Yu Yan, her eyes narrowed, touched her cheek with a troubled expression.
“Yes, being too moisturized is also a problem. I have to add water-absorbing runes to my undergarments. Otherwise, I feel damp and sticky all the time.”
“As for Mother—”
Instructor Yu Xuan looked at her mother, whose expression became unnatural.
“Mother, ever since you advanced to three-star Mystic Ancestor, your… lactation restarted, and your breasts occasionally ache, correct?”
“…”
Silence fell over the pavilion, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
—Instructor, are you sure you should be saying these things?
Yan Zhen felt awkward, lowering his head and holding his breath, afraid that Mother-in-law Clan Head, in her anger, would take it out on him, the only man present.
Younger Aunt Dean, Grand Elder Great Aunt, and Aunt Head Instructor glanced at their second sister/sister-in-law’s ample bosom with strange expressions.
A faint blush colored Clan Head Yu Lu’s beautiful face. Having her carefully guarded secret revealed so publicly, even her strong composure wavered.
She maintained her expressionless facade and said calmly, “If it’s a problem with our cultivation technique and constitution, then why didn’t the Supreme Elder encounter a bottleneck at peak Mystic Ancestor and successfully advanced to Supreme Elder?”
Instructor Yu Xuan replied, “Two reasons. First, the Supreme Elder isn’t a Yu family blood relative. Although her constitution is also extremely Yin, it’s slightly different from ours. Second, when she was younger, she received guidance from Master Chen Xi and obtained a wisp of the pure Yang Gold and Silver Fire, breaking through the extreme Yin within her body, which allowed her to advance smoothly.”
