The words of the others left Yun Yun utterly shocked.
Especially when she heard that the potion which had caused their Dou Qi to surge was mixed with water, and that the sixth-grade pills had been scraped out by that man with a spatula.
It made her recall why her own seal had been broken so quickly!
That's right!
How could the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's seal have been broken by herself in just over a day?
This must have been that man secretly... drugging me!
An Alchemist! Besides being incredibly strong, he was also a unfathomable Alchemist! Using Heavenly Flames to cook, casually mixing potions that could boost Dou Qi, and silently breaking seals… how did he do it?
He… wasn't he just a little too outstanding?
Could he really be a Dou God?
A look of dejection immediately washed over Yun Yun's pretty face as that thought crossed her mind.
If he truly were a Dou God, then a woman like me wouldn't catch his eye. Being discarded by him would be...
I suppose?
"So that's how it is~"
Yun Yun forced a bitter smile, feeling her legs grow weak.
He really did discard me, just like that!
Seeing Yun Yun like this, Nalan Yanran felt immense heartache. She had never seen her teacher in such a state.
She was truly heartbroken!
Nalan Yanran quickly spoke to comfort her:
"Teacher, although her father is gone, doesn't Yan'er still have you?"
"Hmm?"
Upon Nalan Yanran's words, Yun Yun immediately turned her gaze towards Qi Yan'er, whose face was a little fierce!
Right! Her daughter was here! That bastard couldn't possibly escape, could he? Hmph~ "What do you want to do?"
Qi Yan'er had been keeping an eye on Yun Yun.
When she saw Yun Yun looking at her, with a familiar curve at the corner of her mouth, Qi Yan'er already had a very bad feeling.
That smile was sinister, a bit like her father's! Her father always made that expression whenever he found a reason to make her buy wine!
It seemed that this Sect Leader Yun was really quite familiar with her father! "I..."
Hearing Qi Yan'er's cautious tone, Yun Yun immediately put on an indulgent smile: "Yan'er~ Your father has asked me several times to take care of you and accept you as my disciple!"
"What?"
As soon as those words left his mouth, not only Qi Yan'er but everyone nearby was stunned.
Take Qi Yan'er as a disciple?
Was this for real?
Wasn't it just something made up to fool a child?
If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't think like this.
In the Jia Ma Empire, countless young men and women wanted to join the Misty Cloud Sect, not to mention being taken as a direct disciple by the Sect Leader. But that depended on who was being addressed.
Who was Qi Yan'er? She was a peerless genius, and her father was an unfathomable hidden big shot!
With such a powerful father, did she still need to take someone else as a master? Wasn't this a joke?
"Heh heh~"
Qi Yan'er gave a dry laugh. "Sister Yun Yun, it's not that I don't believe you, but if you want me to become your disciple, you have to provide some proof that my father said that!"
"This..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun's expression turned bitter.
Good grief, that scoundrel of a man tricked me once, and even thought of this! With no evidence at all, Yun Yun could only explain, "Yan'er, I don't have any proof. At that time, when I was injured, your father used taking you as a disciple to coerce me, and that's how he saved me."
"Teacher~"
Before Qi Yan'er could respond, Nalan Yanran beside her couldn't help but speak up. "I naturally wouldn't mind having another junior sister, but you have to tell the truth!"
"Yanran~ even you don't believe me?"
Yun Yun felt aggrieved and helpless, saying, "…"
Nalan Yanran sighed, "Teacher, it's not that I don't believe you, but a super strong person like Yan'er's father, how could he force you and coerce you into accepting his daughter as a disciple?"
"That's right, Sect Leader."
"Yan'er's father is so powerful, if he wanted to save you, he naturally would have. If he didn't want to save you, then no one could persuade him. How could he use this matter to coerce you?"
Listening to Nalan Yanran and Ge Ye, Yun Yun was at a loss for words.
Who told them that what they said made sense?
Even she, after knowing that the man was a super strong person, couldn't believe that what had happened before was real.
Was it really a dream?
Yun Yun looked up at the sky, then gently touched her lips with her jade hand, her eyes already firm and unwavering: "What I said is what I truly experienced. Believe it or not, it's up to you."
"Yan'er, are you willing to become my disciple now?"
"No!"
Qi Yan'er replied without a second thought. Although Yun Yun had anticipated this, she was still taken aback and asked in surprise:
"Why? Don't you think I can teach you well?"
"Exactly!"
Because Yun Yun had previously revealed her scheme against Qi Fan, Qi Yan'er wasn't holding back at all now:
"You couldn't even teach Yanran-jie well, so how could you teach me?"
"I…"
Qi Yan'er's words left Yun Yun feeling deeply aggrieved.
"Yanran is now the number one genius in the Jia Ma Empire for her age group. Isn't that proof enough?"
"Proof of what?"
With a helpless look in her big eyes, Qi Yan'er shrugged.
"Proof that she was almost stripped by mercenaries?"
"Or proof that she was almost sold by that Mo Li?"
"Or proof that she was almost taken back to the mercenary group?"
"This! What exactly is going on? Ge Ye!"
Hearing this, Yun Yun's expression immediately changed, and she spoke in a cold voice.
Ge Ye's old face was full of bitterness as he slowly stepped forward.
"Sect Leader, it's like this. That day, I took Yanran and Mo Li to..."
A moment later, Ge Ye had recounted the entire journey.
After listening, Yun Yun's expression was frighteningly cold.
"That Mo Li, and that Wolf Head Mercenary Group, are quite something!"
"Yanran!!!"
Hearing Yun Yun's shout, Nalan Yanran lowered her head and slowly stepped forward.
There was no trace of the previous pride she had shown when talking about Yan'er's father, only fear.
"You... what should I say to you?"
"You're a Three-Star Dou Practitioner, how could you not even protect yourself?"
"If it weren't for Yan'er, you should know how miserable your fate would have been."
"You don't need to go back to the sect. You will continue your training, and you can only return when you break through to Dou Master!"
"I understand, Teacher."
Seeing her teacher scolding her so fiercely, Nalan Yanran felt extremely aggrieved.
So angry...
Teacher, she's really taking her anger out on me!
With Nalan Yanran as a cautionary tale, Yun Yun could no longer bring herself to take Qi Yan'er as a disciple.
As she said, she couldn't even teach Yanran properly, so how could she teach her? This would only delay her talent!
Such a little monster should only be taught by her father, that old monster!
"Sigh~"
Yun Yun sighed helplessly, then turned to Qi Yan'er.
"Yan'er, since you don't want to be my disciple, would you be willing to be my younger sister?"
"Younger sister?"
Qi Yan'er stared at the woman, who was much taller than herself, her little eyebrows furrowing. She immediately shook her head. "No! You have my father's scent on you, and it's very strong!"
"Does... does that matter?"
Yun Yun's pretty face flushed at Qi Yan'er's words.
She...
"Are you wondering how I found out?"
A pair of large, watery eyes stared at Yun Yun, asking a question.
Looking at Qi Yan'er, who was tilting her little head and observing her, Yun Yun's mouth twitched slightly, feeling guilty.
How did she get so smart?
Qi Yan'er puffed out her little mouth and said softly:
"When I'm at home, I not only have to help Daddy cook, but I also have to help Daddy wash his clothes, so you have Daddy's scent on you. I smelled it the moment I got close!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun was stunned.
So...
She was acting with me just now too?
That father and daughter, how good are they at acting?
