Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

Su Xiyue was able to directly admit her relationship with Qin Yu in front of her sister after much consideration.

If Qin Yu were merely a Core Disciple of the Immortal Sect, perhaps her sister, the Sect Leader, would be thunderously furious and might even vent her anger on Qin Yu.

However, things are different now.

Qin Yu’s talent has been revealed and recognized by the entire Immortal Sect, and Su Xiyue has also made it clear that she acted voluntarily.

Venting anger is definitely out of the question now.

This way, in the future, visiting Qin Yu can be done more freely without hindering the improvement of her Root Bone.

It’s just that...

Acknowledging this so rashly might be a huge shock to her sister, right?!

Although she feels a bit sorry for her sister, everything she is doing is for the enhancement of her Root Bone and the benefit of the Immortal Sect.

When her sister learns the truth in the future, she probably won’t blame her...

right?

...

Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion.

When Liu Zixiao arrived, Su Xihe was lying on a hammock, staring into space, seemingly oblivious to her presence.

What’s going on again?!

Liu Zixiao was puzzled.

Could it be that Qin Yu did something unbelievable once more?

Realm breakthrough?

They were already used to that.

Could it be that his Spiritual Power broke through to the Middle Tier of Refining?

Impossible, it’s only been a few days.

Besides, today she was in charge of supervision, and it was still early; Qin Yu probably hadn’t arrived yet.

Then what could be the reason?

Liu Zixiao walked over and gave Su Xihe a little push, only for the Sect Leader to cast her a faint glance, her eyes displaying an unreadable expression.

There was shock, there was loss... as if something had happened that she found unbelievable and unacceptable.

"Could it be that your disciple offended you?"

Liu Zixiao blurted out the question.

"Qin Yu?!"

At the mention of Qin Yu, an inexplicable wave of anger surged in the Sect Leader’s heart.

How could that guy dare?!

Her sister, so pure and noble, and being the esteemed First Fairy, the Immortal Sect Saintess, even if they were to be wed, how dare he...

bully her sister like that?!

Her voice was already hoarse!

Clearly, what her sister went through at night must have been tormenting.

Initially, she thought her sister’s cries were due to Body Tempering or some other unbearable refinement.

But as it turned out, it was indeed because of something... so absurd!

The Sect Leader could hardly imagine such a scene; just the thought of it made her shudder.

How vile!

"???"

Liu Zixiao was taken aback, seeing this reaction. Could it be that Qin Yu indeed did something?

But her reaction was a bit different from the last time...

Last time, it was shock, melancholy.

This time, it should be more aptly described as... outrage.

"Did Qin Yu really offend you?"

Liu Zixiao found it hard to believe.

In her view, Qin Yu was rather obedient, although... a little bit cheeky.

Don’t think she didn’t notice; even without mastering Spiritual Power, that guy occasionally set his sights on her.

Hmph!

She, Master Liu, was destined to be the woman he could never have.

Her Dao Heart is much firmer than the Sect Leader’s!

But she was certain Qin Yu would never do something so reckless.

His nature was still inclined towards being cautious.

"How dare he!"

The Sect Leader stood up with a shout, glaring at Liu Zixiao.

If he dared offend her, he’d overstep his bounds; don’t think that having some... decent talent would allow him to do as he pleases within the Immortal Sect!

If he dared to defy her as the Sect Leader, then don’t blame her...

In the next moment.

Su Xihe’s brows furrowed.

How should she deal with this?

Though Qin Yu was her Direct Disciple, many Elders also favored and valued Qin Yu.

If she were to truly deal with Qin Yu, it wouldn’t be a decision she could make alone.

At the very least, she would need to provide a convincing reason.

But could Su Xihe reveal the reason?

Could she say it in front of all the Elders, in front of all the disciples of the Immortal Sect?!

Obviously not, as it would likely cause a stir throughout the Yunlan Domain, making them a laughingstock.

The Sect Leader suddenly collapsed back onto the hammock, face full of distress.

Her younger sister Su Xiyue’s words echoed in her mind.

It was her sister’s own choice.

And it was her sister who had sought out Qin Yu herself.

Even though the Sect Leader found it hard to believe, it must be true.

Qin Yu was just a Qi Refining Cultivator, he couldn’t possibly have coerced Su Xiyue, especially since Liu Zixiao was also present at Lin Xian City at the time.

Her sister even avoided Liu Zixiao to find Qin Yu.

Yet the Sect Leader still couldn’t fathom the reason why.

Was it because she discovered Qin Yu’s talent at the Talents Banquet and sought him out?

What happened afterwards?

Could it be that Qin Yu refused to join the Cyan Mountain Sect, so her sister enticed him at the cost of herself?!

It wasn’t likely.

Ultimately, Qin Yu was just a Junior Cultivator; if necessary, they could simply abduct him back to the Immortal Sect, not needing to pay such a huge...

price.

What baffled the Sect Leader the most was that even now, when Qin Yu had joined the Immortal Sect, her sister still secretly visited him at night.

What exactly was it that ensnared her sister?

Talent?

Looks?

Character?

Could it be that Qin Yu was exceptional in some aspect, making Su Xiyue unable to extricate herself?!

Su Xihe quickly shook her head to refute the thought.

How could that be!

Even if her sister had feelings for Qin Yu, she would never be captivated by such things.

In this, the Sect Leader was one hundred percent certain.

But then she pondered, if not captivated, why did her sister often appear lost in thought, and why did she always spend nights visiting Qin Yu?

Even now, on the main peak, she risked being discovered to visit Qin Yu.

All signs indicated that her sister seemed truly infatuated with Qin Yu.

This thought led the Sect Leader to deliberate.

It appeared that there was a secret about Qin Yu that even she, his master, had not uncovered.

What could this secret be?

Could it be about his Root Bone?

She had momentarily wondered.

After all, her sister Su Xiyue had Top Grade Spirit Bone, and as her sister and the Sect Leader, she couldn’t possibly be wrong.

And Qin Yu claimed his Root Bone was not just Lower Grade Spirit Bone.

Their situations seemed different, yet similar, in that... both could enhance their Root Bones!

At this moment, the Sect Leader seemed to grasp something.

Could it be...

that they both acquired some opportunity?

She felt that she might not fully understand Qin Yu’s whereabouts.

Like when the Hundred Sword Sect abducted a large number of cultivators from Lin Xian City, was Qin Yu among them?

Perhaps Qin Yu was indeed there at the time!

At this moment, the Sect Leader seemed to have realized many things.
