reXu Yue was fuming as she walked out of the treasure padoga.

"Damn old hag just you wait," mumbled Xu Yue as she felt the pain on her buttocks and scowled.

Looking at the expression on Xu Yue's face, the artifact spirit felt like a vein popped in it's eye.

"You took advantage of little Ling'er and you are the one angry, how dare you," thought the artifact spirit as anger took over the eye, making it spasm wildly around.

After the anger slowly dissipated, sadness began filling the artifact spirit up.

"She's gonna corrupt Ling'er," thought the artifact spirit as it tearfully remembered when Xu Lanfeng brought a small fire and a small block of ice to the trial pagoda.

Wiping away it's tears with it's non-existent hands, determination filled the artifact's spirit.

"I'm not going to let that wench corrupt Ling'er," thought the artifact spirit as its anger towards Xu Yue became larger and larger.

...

At this moment Xu Yue was walking towards her cave abode, blissfully unaware of the anger f the artifact spirit.

"Who's thinking about me so much," mumbled Xu Yue as she stopped walking for a moment before continuing on.

"Whatever," mumbled Xu Yue, after seeing that that person did not have true malice against herself and seeing that divining any further would be quite pricy, Xu Yue continued on to her cave abode.

"It's probably that artifact spirit," thought Xu Yue with a smile on her face as she quickly thought about who she had angered recently.

As soon as Xu Yue realized who it was, the cause and effect of the situation quickly entered her mind.

"I shouldn't taunt him the next time I go there," mumbled Xu Yue as she noted that stealing someone's daughter then and taunting them to their face isn't a good idea.

...

Completely unaware of Xu Yue's thought, the artifact spirit quickly began deducing plans to make sure that Bing Ling did not meet Xu Yue again, but when he thought about the Dao of Fate helplessness filled the eye.

|Hopefully Bing'er realizes that she got taken advantage of," thought the artifact spirit as its eye began even more bloodshot.

...

"It's close," mumbled Shi Yao as her finger dexterously worked their magic on the zither in front of her.

Right now, anyone that heard her play would be entranced and thrown into a world of music, even though it wasn't actually real, the world seemed to bring out the rawest emotions in people.

Using these illusions, although she did not train to fight using any sound techniques, Shi Yao's combat power greatly increased.

After her breakthrough, it seemed as if the speed at which her skills increased rose sharply, right now she felt that if she went one step further she would touch a barrier.

"Hopefully mistress will like the new song," mumbled Shi Yao as the illusions around her disappeared.

"Do you confidence so much," asked Ye Qiao who had appeared behind Shi Yao alongside Shi Xia.

Shi Yao could not respond to Ye Qiao's question, she could only stand in front of Ye Qiao with her mouth open, and not say anything.

"Don't worry, In terms of zither skills I have not heard or seen anyone with higher skills than yourself, you have surpassed even me," said Ye Qiao as she looked at Shi Yao with a smile on her face.

"Hmm, it's true, I haven't seen anyone better either," said Shi Xia as she looked at her sister with pride on her face.

"Thank you elder sister," said Shi Xia, causing Ye Qiao's eyes to become unfocused before a smile appeared on her lips.

"There's no need to thank me, I'm just proud of you," said Ye Qiao as she embraced Shi Yao with a smile on her face.

A surprised expression appeared on Shi Yao's face before morphing into a smile.

"Thank you elder sister," said Shi Yao, this time, her words were actually directed at Ye Qiao rather than Shi Xia.

As she silently opened the door, Xu Yue's incarnation saw the peaceful scene in front of her before closing it just as silently, letting the peaceful moment continue.

"It's good," mumbled Xu Yue as a smile appeared on her face.

...

Looking at the ocean coming toward her, Liang Xiaoling smiled, perhaps before her new breakthrough she would have not had an answer to it, but now things were different from before.

The ocean which was filled with sword attacks that would kill any ordinary Minor Trancendance cultivator suddenly stopped and began traveling in the opposite direction.

"The Dao of Water," mumbled Feng Shuchun, a somewhat bitter smile appearing on her face as she felt her Dao of the Ocean fully lose its effectiveness in the face of Liang Xiaoling.

Feeling the water wash over her, Feng Shuchun's smile turned brilliant, if she had fought this battle with anyone else, Feng Shuchun would be furious, but knowing it was one of her disciples, especially Liang Xiaoling who she had fully raised since she was young, a smile appeared on her face.

"But did you really have to make my robes wet?" asked Feng Shuchun as she knew that no normal water could make her robes wet and that Liang Xiaoling had to have done this intentionally.

"Master! Your robes are ruined," said Liang Xiaoling as she appeared next to Feng Shuchun with a hand on her face as if she had made a mistake.

As Feng Shuchun tried using her qi to make her clothes no longer wet, she discovered that the water seemed to stick to them.

"Master, don't worry, this disciple admits her mistake and will help master change her clothes," said Liang Xiaoling as she came closer and closer to Feng Shuchun with a smile on her face.

After she said this, Liang Xiaoling took out a blue shortsword from her waist together with its scabbard, she then took the identical sword from her master's waist and put them to the side.

"I really have a filial disciple," said Feng Shuchun as she looked at Liang Xiaoling, but before she could do anything more, Liang Xiaoling's hands embraced her by the waist, and jumped onto the bed that just materialized next to the two of them.

By the time the two landed on the bed, they had already erupted in a kiss of passion and love.
