Qingyun Sect, Xiao Zhu Peak.
Just arriving at the foot of the mountain gate, Shui Yue quickly stopped her flying sword and said to Su Han behind her, seemingly impatient.
'Xiao Han, we've arrived, quickly let go of your Shifu (Master).'
Su Han nodded, released his hands from Shui Yue's waist, and jumped off the flying sword.
Only then did Shui Yue let out a long sigh, 'If there's nothing else, you can go back to your room yourself, your Shifu (Master) also has some matters to attend to.'
Saying this, Shui Yue didn't even wait for Su Han's reply and directly flew away on her sword.
Looking at Shui Yue's hurried retreating figure and her slightly flushed earlobes, Su Han smiled and shook his head.
'My Master's constitution... is a bit sensitive!'
Thinking this, Su Han walked alone with Little Grey along the mountain path towards his dwelling.
Soon.
He returned to his bamboo building, but just as he pushed open the door, he faintly heard the sounds of women laughing and playing from the backyard.
'Lu Xueqi, don't be so shy, we're all women, what are you afraid of.'
'Exactly, Junior Brother isn't on Xiao Zhu Peak right now, there's no need to be so reserved, take your hands away.'
And at this moment, Wen Min's unique gentle yet slightly mischievous exclamation sounded.
'Wow! Don't look at Senior Sister Xueqi being so quiet usually, but she really has a lot of potential!'
'No wonder Junior Brother once mistakenly called Senior Sister Xueqi Nai Qi, now it seems Junior Brother's eyesight is truly unique!'
'It's not like that at all! Everyone, Senior Sister, don't... don't talk nonsense!'
Lu Xueqi's cool and helpless protests sounded so powerless amidst the laughter of the crowd.
Listening to the conversation coming from the backyard, which seemed to be related to him, Su Han felt a bit puzzled.
'Little Grey, go play by yourself, but don't run too far, remember?'
'Chirp chirp~'
Su Han first casually tossed Little Grey into the courtyard to play by itself, then walked into the room alone and headed towards the backyard.
But as soon as he pushed open the backyard gate, he was instantly stunned by the scene before him.
In the backyard, steam from the hot spring curled upwards.
Wen Min leaned lazily against the edge of the pool, her wet long hair scattered casually. Water droplets slid down her smooth shoulders, over her skin as delicate as fat, tracing a tempting curve downwards.
She slightly raised the corners of her mouth.
Her eyes, looking at Lu Xueqi, were full of playful amusement, her appearance utterly charming.
Lu Xueqi, on the other hand, was biting her lip tightly, her face flushed with embarrassment.
That stunningly beautiful and cool face became even more captivating under the mist of the water vapor, making one want to take a bite.
Her exquisite body was faintly visible in the water, her slender neck, delicate collarbone, and the slightly undulating half of her snowy white skin, all exuded a fatal temptation.
The other women also had their own charms. Some boldly stretched out their arms, revealing large areas of fair skin.
Others gently splashed the water, their laughter as clear as Silver Bells, their long, beautiful legs revealed inadvertently, sparking imagination.
'Ah!'
And at this moment, the few people in the hot spring also saw Su Han.
Instantly, Lu Xueqi let out a soft cry, her hands clasped in front of her, her eyes full of shyness.
'You... quickly go out!'
She quickly spoke to Su Han in a flustered manner.
In contrast, Wen Min and the other Senior Sisters, having frequently come to the hot spring, were already used to Su Han's presence.
Moreover, compared to them, Su Han was simply too young.
What's more, they were in the water.
Therefore, Wen Min just smiled at Su Han and said, 'Junior Brother, why did you suddenly come back?'
After speaking, she looked at Lu Xueqi, who was here for the first time and appeared extremely nervous.
'Junior Brother, Senior Sister Xueqi is still a bit unaccustomed to this, don't you think you should go out first?'
Su Han nodded upon hearing this and then exited the room.
After closing the door, he shook his head and smiled, 'I didn't expect such a surprise by coming back suddenly.'
However, as a transmigrator, Su Han had seen his share of storms and waves and didn't pay too much attention to it.
......
......
......
He didn't know if it was because Lu Xueqi was shy.
Wen Min and the other Senior Sisters stayed in the hot spring for a shorter time than usual.
Soon.
He saw Wen Min and the other Senior Sisters, with their wet long hair draped over their shoulders and wearing snowy white gauze dresses, walk out of the backyard.
Immediately, they all came before Su Han.
'Junior Brother, you're so amazing!'
'Yes, Junior Brother, the Senior Sisters have all heard about what happened to you on Da Zhu Peak.
We didn't expect you not only to have an epiphany and comprehend a powerful sword technique but also to break through your cultivation again. You truly deserve to be called the most talented disciple of our Xiao Zhu Peak!'
Even Wen Min couldn't help but size up Su Han, her eyes full of stars.
'Junior Brother, your Senior Sister has been in Qingyun Sect for so many years and has never heard of anyone entering a state of epiphany.
Junior Brother, can you tell your Senior Sister what kind of feeling an epiphany is like?'
'I want to hear too, I want to hear too...
Before, we only heard that some powerful seniors could have epiphanies and comprehend some peerless cultivation methods.
Now, it's the first time we've actually seen someone who can have an epiphany like those seniors. It's truly an eye-opener!'
'Everyone, Senior Sister, the feeling of epiphany is very mysterious, it can only be understood intuitively and cannot be expressed in words. I'm not good at describing it either.'
Su Han simply answered the questions of the Senior Sisters.
While smiling, he looked at Lu Xueqi, who was standing alone in the distance, fidgeting.
At this moment, Lu Xueqi was staring at Su Han as if a child had her beloved toy snatched away.
She even pursed her lips slightly, feeling wronged because her Senior Sister was praising Su Han in front of her.
After all, before Su Han came up the mountain, she was always the one being praised like this.
But ever since Su Han arrived at Xiao Zhu Peak, she found that everything had changed.
Su Han seemed to sense Lu Xueqi's feeling of being wronged.
He stood up with a smile and slowly walked towards Lu Xueqi.
Wen Min and the others nearby saw this scene and exchanged glances, their eyes full of the light of 'watching the show'.
After all, among these disciples, Lu Xueqi and Su Han were not far apart in age, and both were geniuses, truly a perfect match.
Therefore, adhering to the principle of keeping the good stuff within the family.
When they ate on weekdays, they would intentionally or unintentionally arrange for Su Han and Lu Xueqi to sit close together.
'Senior Sister Xueqi, just now...'
Before Su Han could finish speaking, Lu Xueqi's earlobes instantly turned red, and she quickly shook her head.
'Su Han, you don't need to apologize to me, I know it was unintentional.'
Su Han, upon hearing this, smiled and shook his head, 'Who said I was going to apologize to you?'
'I just wanted to say...'
'What Wen Min Shijie said is right!'
'Eh? You?'
Lu Xueqi completely did not expect Su Han to say such a thing. Instantly, her cheeks were covered in blush, and even her delicate little ears were like red jade. She could no longer maintain her cool and aloof image.
'Hmph!'
Then she let out a soft snort of shame and annoyance and fled from Su Han's side as if escaping.
Wen Min looked at the 'fleeing' Lu Xueqi and couldn't help but smile, 'Junior Brother is really considerate.'
'Knowing that Junior Sister is jealous, he directly comforted her, but Junior Sister's cool and strong personality definitely wouldn't accept it.'
'I really envy Senior Sister Xueqi! Childhood sweethearts, innocent and naive.'
'Even Junior Brother, you've raised Senior Sister's standards...'
'My future husband, even if he can't compare to Junior Brother, must at least be half as outstanding as you!'
Hearing Wen Min's words, the other Senior Sisters teased her one after another.
'Senior Apprentice-Sister, if you're envious, you can also cultivate feelings with Junior Brother. Don't those rich men in the mortal world have three wives and four concubines?
Presumably Senior Sister Xueqi wouldn't mind, hehe.'
'Hmm?'
'Bold! You dare to even joke about your Senior Sister?'
Saying this, Wen Min started playing and roughhousing with them.
'Ah! It tickles so much... Senior Apprentice-Sister, I won't dare again, please let me go!'
Soon, several people were laughing breathlessly, their clothes disheveled, revealing a glimpse of spring.
Su Han looked at the expanse of snowy white and shook his head helplessly.
'Are these Senior Sisters like this because they came up the mountain from a young age and don't understand the distinction between men and women, or do they really see me as a child?'
Su Han felt that it was likely both.
After a while, the roughhousing stopped.
While tidying her messy gauze dress, Wen Min said to Su Han curiously, 'Junior Brother, our Xiao Zhu Peak's internal small martial arts competition will be held soon.'
'If I remember correctly, you and Lu Xueqi still have a match, right? Do you have confidence?'
Su Han smiled upon hearing this, 'Confidence, of course, I have it.'
Saying this.
Su Han seemed to think of something and instructed Wen Min, 'Oh, right, Senior Sister, please tell Master tonight.'
'Just say that I plan to go into seclusion until the small martial arts competition to strive to enter the Yuqing Realm Fourth Layer as soon as possible.'
'Ask Master to help look after Little Grey.'
