Chapter 76: A Very Suggestive Posture

"Seventh Young Master." Du Wei halted in front of Ji Yin and greeted her.

"And you are?"

"Du Wei."

Ji Yin had never even heard this name before. There were so many disciples in Tianyuan Sect, and she only knew a handful.

"Seventh Young Master, aren't you going to eat?"

"No, I'll just go back and change my clothes first." Ji Yin also noticed that Du Wei's clothes were completely dry. In other words, Du Wei hadn't gone to meditate today?

She was no longer a disciple of Tianyuan Sect, yet she still followed the rules, sitting in the rain for so long. Could it be that Du Wei simply skipped it because of the rain?

"Seventh Young Master, I'll go eat now."

"Alright," Ji Yin stepped aside for Du Wei to pass.

"Great Demon, this person is a spiritual cultivator who has already broken through to the sixth rank in the Spirit Domain!" The Devil Cauldron's voice suddenly sounded in her mind.

"As far as I remember, there shouldn't be such a powerful spirit cultivator in Tianyuan Sect. If someone possessed such strength, they would have been promoted long ago and taken on important responsibilities."

"It seems he's deliberately concealing his true strength."

Ji Yin turned and walked in another direction.

In the Tianyuan Hall, where all the disciples' records were kept, she found Du Wei's file. It clearly stated that his soul power had just crossed into the second rank, and it was only registered recently.

"Why is this person hiding his strength? What is his purpose in staying at Tianyuan Sect?" Ji Yin silently committed his name to memory.

When Ji Yin returned to her quarters, Shuang'er was waiting anxiously.

"Young Master, your clothes are soaked through. Didn't you come straight back? How did you end up slower than me?" Shuang'er hurried to help Ji Yin out of her wet clothes.

Once she had changed, Ji Yin took a deep breath. "Why doesn't the place smell like food today?"

She had barely finished speaking when the Scarlet Flame Mink entered, head drooping in dejection.

Usually, at this hour, the Scarlet Flame Mink would be waiting for food at Xuanyuan Ji's place.

Ji Yin quickly walked out, climbed over the wall, and entered Xuanyuan Ji's courtyard.

Xuanyuan Ji was reading by the window, with only a pot of tea on the table. Wuyan sat beside him, absentmindedly polishing his newly forged broadsword—recast from his previous broken blade. Though it wasn't quite as good as the original, the difference was slight.

When he saw Ji Yin approach, he immediately put his sword away.

Though he didn't know the exact reason, he vaguely felt that the two times his sword had been broken, Ji Yin had something to do with it.

"Why didn't you cook?" Ji Yin asked Wuyan.

"The Young Master doesn't eat, so what would I cook for?" Wuyan replied. Whenever the Young Master said there was no need to cook, he felt like he was floating on air!

No more chasing chickens through the forest. What a relief!

Ji Yin rubbed her stomach. If she had known there would be no food here, she would have eaten something before coming.

"Come here," Xuanyuan Ji's voice suddenly called out, his gaze still fixed on the book in his hands, not looking up at Ji Yin.

Ji Yin walked over and sat across from him.

"From today on, you must spend two hours each day cultivating the Heart Method."

"Why?"

"Because we are master and disciple, and I am naturally responsible for teaching you how to cultivate and become stronger." Xuanyuan Ji deliberately emphasized the words "master and disciple."

Yesterday, when he heard her say that their relationship could only be that of master and disciple, he felt a sharp pang of discomfort in his heart.

Ji Yin shifted, intending to slip away, but Xuanyuan Ji caught her and pulled her back.

Her body tipped backward uncontrollably, and her head nearly struck the corner of the table. Xuanyuan Ji swiftly extended his hand to support her head, but as Ji Yin instinctively pulled on him, Xuanyuan Ji toppled forward, landing right on top of her...
