If I were to say it out loud, I'm afraid we'd break up again.
"Yunzhou, you...you just said you wanted to take me as your disciple?"
"Of course, am I joking?"
"That's not the case..."
Her heart raced. "It was just too unexpected."
"So, will you agree or not? I guarantee that once you join my sect, you'll experience an unparalleled pleasure."
I wouldn't say I'm an expert on Chapter 97; I only have a basic understanding.
Xue Qinghe's face flushed upon hearing this: "You'd better explain exactly how it feels good!"
Seeing his serious expression and witnessing the transformation of his five disciples, she wavered. Becoming a disciple was not the goal; getting closer was the truth.
He had previously scoffed at those girls for their ambition to become masters, but now the opportunity was right in front of him...
Why don't you give it a try?
"Hey, what are you spacing out for? Give me a straight answer..." Jiang Yunzhou urged.
Xue Qinghe suddenly came to his senses and took a deep breath: "Take me to that Yin-Yang Two-Element Eye. If what you say is true, I will tell you a secret."
Jiang Yunzhou raised an eyebrow: A secret? Was she going to be honest with him?
No way, this woman really believes him that much?
"Alright, I'll take you there. Do you want to go back to the palace first to arrange some matters?"
Give me half an hour.
"Alright, the academy will be waiting for you. Oh, and remember to prepare a carriage..."
Xue Qinghe turned and left, his figure quickly disappearing into the shadows at the street corner.
She didn't go far, but briefly exchanged a few words with Ci Xue in the shadows.
The two titled Douluo responsible for protecting her wanted to follow, but she waved them off.
With Jiang Yunzhou around, what is there to be unsafe about?
After giving her instructions, she didn't forget to order the carriage to be prepared.
Before long, the group had assembled, and the two carriages drove out of the academy one after the other, heading straight for the Falling Moon Forest.
With the plans changed, Jiang Yunzhou no longer intended to bother his five apprentices.
Moreover, Dugu Bo's injuries had not yet healed, the deficit from the backlash of his soul power had not been recovered, and his various ailments had not been completely cured.
The five women rode in one carriage, while Jiang Yunzhou, Xue Qinghe, and Dugu Bo rode in another carriage.
Of the three, Dugu Boming clearly had the highest cultivation level, yet he appeared the most reserved in the carriage.
Xue Qinghe maintained the composure and humility befitting a prince, mostly keeping his eyes closed to rest and not saying much.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Jiang Yunzhou took the initiative to tease, "Uncle Dugu, I've been waiting for you for days. Why are you only coming to cause trouble in my courtyard today? Did you just come back from that Yin-Yang Yin-Yang Eye not long ago?"
Dugu Bo's lips twitched; these words were truly embarrassing for him.
They even predicted that he would cause trouble at the Supreme Academy; it turns out they weren't afraid at all.
Am I really that bad?
After thinking about it... it seems that's really true!
"Ahem, I have indeed only been back for a short time. I didn't expect that I would have to go back again after just one day."
Jiang Yunzhou chuckled, "There are many things you didn't expect. For example, didn't you also not expect that I'm raising a 100,000-year-old soul beast in my courtyard?"
Dugu Bo was startled and subconsciously glanced at Xue Qinghe beside him.
Did His Highness the Crown Prince also know about this?
Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe immediately opened his eyes, his gaze filled with questions.
Before she could speak, Jiang Yunzhou interjected, "She's my apprentice. Don't you dare get any funny ideas, understand?"
His tone was relaxed and natural, yet he possessed an undeniable aura that firmly suppressed the two of them.
Dugu Bo had no other thoughts at the moment. "I do know, but I have no intention of taking advantage of her. Dean Jiang, please don't misunderstand me."
What good would it do to find out if you were beaten so badly?
Xue Qinghe was in a good mood; Jiang Yunzhou hadn't hidden this private matter from her.
"Yunzhou, what are you talking about?"
Since she had already expressed her intention to be honest, Jiang Yunzhou did not intend to hide it from her.
"It's Xiao Wu."
He chuckled, "Your Highness, you wouldn't want to be my enemy, would you?"
She sighed softly, staring at Jiang Yunzhou and said, "Yunzhou, what kind of person do you take me for?"
She thought to herself, if she really became Jiang Yunzhou's disciple, wouldn't she have to call that little girl "senior sister"?
Just thinking about this makes me feel a bit tight in my chest.
"That would be the best."
Jiang Yunzhou added with a smile, "Maybe you two will be fellow disciples in the future~"
Xue Qinghe narrowed his eyes and twitched his lips.
That jerk, he's at it again, isn't he? Can't I stop teasing him?
Dugu Bo, who was standing to the side, listened with his eyes shining. This was a really big piece of gossip!
Judging from their conversation, does this mean the Crown Prince also wants to become Jiang Yunzhou's disciple? And what about his granddaughter...?
He quickly asked, "Dean Jiang, what you said before... still stands? Are you really willing to take my granddaughter as your apprentice?"
Jiang Yunzhou did not answer. Whether or not to accept it depends on the mutual consent of both parties. It's too early to talk about it now that we haven't even met the person.
He suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Uncle Dugu, how many of the many exotic flowers and herbs in your herb garden do you recognize?"
Dugu Boli blushed and said, "To be honest, I... don't recognize most of them."
Jiang Yunzhou chuckled inwardly. "It would have sounded better if you had just said you recognized most of them than that you didn't recognize most of them."
A sly glint flashed in his eyes: "Then you know that the 'Seven Absolute Jade Flowers' grow around the Yin-Yang Eye?"
Dugu Bo was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, he realized that there was a peculiar poisonous plant called the Jade Unicorn Seven Absolutes Flower.
"Dean Jiang, please speak frankly."
He smiled slightly and said, "This Azure Dragon Seven Wonders Flower is an incredible opportunity for your granddaughter."
The words 'Bi Lin' gave Dugu Bo a sudden burst of energy, as if he had just thought of something.
However, the entire flower is poisonous, and it just so happens to grow on the outer edge of the Yin-Yang Two Elements Eye, preventing many soul beasts from accidentally entering the Yin-Yang Two Elements Eye.
He didn't deliberately try to remove it.
Jiang Yunzhou deliberately mentioned the Jade Unicorn Seven Wonders Flower, and said that it was his granddaughter's destiny.
Although he had some suspicions, he dared not be certain.
This matter concerns his granddaughter, so he is quite concerned about it. He quickly cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Please give me your guidance, Dean Jiang!"
"This flower is extremely poisonous. If an ordinary titled Douluo is careless, she will die immediately upon touching it. But your Dugu family is the opposite."
"If your granddaughter takes this, there's a high chance her martial soul will evolve into... the Azure Serpent Emperor. Do you understand what that means?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo abruptly stood up, not even noticing his head hitting the roof of the carriage with a thud: "What? Is this really true?"
He was guarding a garden full of treasures but didn't know how to use them; at that moment, he felt like he had found gold but mistook it for a stone.
Jiang Yunzhou laughed and said, "It's a pity your granddaughter is away and hasn't returned yet, otherwise you could have witnessed it with your own eyes this time."
Dugu Bo was so excited that his face turned red, and he rubbed his hands together repeatedly: "She should be back soon! If this matter can be accomplished, I will owe you a huge favor!"
Jiang Yunzhou waved his hand dismissively: "No need for favors, just don't come looking for trouble. I'm not afraid of trouble, but my apprentice is."
Dugu Bo understood immediately and laughed loudly, "Dean Jiang, don't worry! After we get back, I'll spread the word that anyone who dares to cause trouble for the Supreme Academy is going against me, Dugu Bo!"
He spoke solemnly, yet his eyes were exceptionally sincere.
Jiang Yunzhou scoffed, "What if Prince Xuexing sends you to deal with me?"
Dugu Bo stammered, "Ah, well, I'm naturally on Dean Jiang's side."
Xue Qinghe, who had been listening quietly to the side, was somewhat dazed.
She went to great lengths to recruit talent, only to watch helplessly as Jiang Yunzhou won over a titled Dou Luo with just a few words.
Even all the benefits are still just talk.
What kind of magic does this person possess? Is he attractive to both men and women?
She sighed softly, "I never knew you were so knowledgeable about herbs."
Jiang Yunzhou chuckled and winked, saying, "I wouldn't call myself an expert, just a little bit, a little bit~"
"Everyone has their own strengths. What the Crown Prince is good at is something that others would find like headless flies."
Xue Qinghe seemed to be deep in thought: Proficient...?
P.S.: Thank you Adinan for the extra update and the flowers and likes, thank you Officer Li who loves black pepper sauce for the milk tea, and thank you to all the kind babies for your support... Your support and encouragement are the driving force for the author to keep going.
Chapter 98 Xiao Wu, did you see that immortal herb?
As they talked, the carriage sped along.
After an unknown amount of time, the vehicle slowly came to a stop on the outskirts of the Falling Moon Forest.
Although it was getting late, with their combined strength, crossing the forest at night was no problem at all.
Moreover, with Dugu Bo as their guide, a lot of time can be saved.
The group soon arrived at the foot of two high mountains, where there was a hidden entrance to a valley, concealed amidst mist and poisonous miasma.
