Chapter 15: He Needs To Throw His Master Onto The Bed A Few Times, Giving Him A Taste Of How It Feels (1/2)

Jing Ming and Chu Qianshuang both acted childish. The two of them met up. They then went to the competition area for disciples in Lofty Cloudy Sect while leading Gu Yunjue along with them. They still did not feel satisfied after fighting with some people, so they led Gu Yunjue to the peak where spirit beasts were specifically kept. They planned to take a couple of the spirit beasts home so that they could raise them.

They didn’t understand what had happened, but many of the obedient spirit beasts suddenly rebelled. Those that did not sign a treaty contract did their best to run away. Gu Yunjue also did not know how he was so unfortunate as to be slapped by the wing of a very fierce snow eagle. Although he was protected by Jing Ming, he still obtained some injuries.

When Mu Chen saw Gu Yunjue’s injured shoulder, he held onto him in distress and did not let go. He watched as Gu Yunjue grabbed a strand of his hair and leaned against his bosom like a spoiled child. Mu Chen felt a bit worried. His little disciple liked acting spoiled, and he did not appear to have a tough personality. Would this lead to him being bullied in the future?

“Master.” Gu Yunjue called out to him.

Mu Chen rested his chin on top of his little disciple’s head. He made a faint sound ofacknowledgmentt. Gu Yunjue smiled before he said, “Really, something always happens to me the moment I leave Master’s sight.”

Mu Chen patted Gu Yunjue’s back and comforted him. “Nothing will happen to you.”

Gu Yunjue smiled and lifted his head upwards. He looked at Mu Chen’s cheek and used a finger to jab at his Master’s chin. His little Master really wasn’t cute. Shouldn’t his Master have told him to stick close to him and not separate from him? It looked as if his Master wouldn’t understand if it only happened once.

Mu Chen felt a bit helpless as he held onto Gu Yunjue’s hand. His little disciple was cowardly, dependent, and super naughty. What good could come from this? ?

Mu Chen did not dare to let Gu Yunjue venture outwards the following days where there was good weather. Their lives started to follow a habitual pattern. He would wake his disciple up in the morning to practice. He would then feed his little disciple and have him learn about medicinal herbs afterwards. Around noontime, he would feed his little disciple again before letting him follow Jing Ting in order to learn about sword fighting in the afternoon. Or he would follow Jing Ming to Hanyang Palace to practice sword fighting with Chu Qianshuang. In the evening, he would personally feed his little disciple, and then have him practice calligraphy. It was after his disciple fell asleep at night that he would start meditating.

It was probably because of that one kick Mu Chen had given his disciple earlier, but his disciple never said that he was scared and wanted to sleep with him from then onwards. Mu Chen felt a bit disappointed by that.

His little disciple’s complexion started to look a little rosier and his body was much sturdier than before. He had also grown taller. His hair started to become smoother and smoother. It was much more pleasant to touch. However, why didn’t his disciple jump into his embrace like before?

Gu Yunjue was also very tangled. The devil cultivation that he had absorbed last time was almost completely gone and it had worked smoothly. As long as he could absorb it once more, he could also hit Foundation Establishment. However, how was he able to get into his Master’s bed? If his Master fell asleep once more, he would probably start to become suspicious of him.

That evening, Mu Chen laid on his side on top of the soft sofa inside Gu Yunjue’s room. He used his hand to prop up his head as he watched Gu Yunjue read. Mu Chen had taken off his gorgeous magical gown and was now in nothing but his white inner clothes. He had also taken his hair crest off which took away his normal cold and strict vibe. He allowed his waist long black hair to scatter all over the white cloud embroidered cloth. His beautiful face carried a laziness that nobody has ever seen before. Next to him, there was a couple of brightly lit black moon lamps. The gentle light from the lamps shrouded his body and added to his casual look.

As Gu Yunjue read the book, his eyes would occasionally sneak over to the side. He was sure that he was the only person to have seen this side of his Master. That feeling that felt foreign to Gu Yunjue once again sprouted inside his heart. Gu Yunjue placed the book down and stared silently at his Master. It was like he was trying to engrave it all into his soul. He felt hesitant to look away.

“What’s the matter? What don’t you understand?” Mu Chen lifted himself up and leaned against the couch. He waved at Gu Yunjue to come over to him.

Gu Yunjue’s lips curled into a faint smile. He carried the book and went over to Mu Chen’s embrace. Gu Yunjue sniffed at the pure fragrance of his Master’s body and leaned against him some more. “Here, your disciple doesn’t understand this.”

Mu Chen skimmed the page. On the page, there was a long barb with three little fruits drawn on it. Mu Chen said, “This is Cold Wood Grass. What part don’t you understand?”

“How is it possible that we can use its root but the leaves are poisonous?”

“All living things have biochemicals in it. Many of the poisonous ones have spiritual herbs around them that can restrain their poison from acting up. Some can even fight poison with poison. Similar to this Cold Wood Grass, the root and stalk can be used for medicinal purposes. It can relieve coughing, improve blood circulation, and relax muscles. However, picking it is the most annoying part. It’s very simple to deal with the poison of the leaves. You just need to squeeze the juice of the yellow fruit onto your hand and you don’t have to worry about being poisoned. On top of that, if you cook the leaves and the fruit together, it becomes a high class detoxifying tonic.” It was probably because Mu Chen was in a good mood, but he said more than he usually did and explained very clearly. Gu Yunjue decided to directly lie in Mu Chen’s embrace and place his head on top his chest. He continued to ask, “What about this one?”

“That is called Ninth Month Red. Once it becomes ten years old, it can clear poison. When it becomes twenty years old, it is poison. After thirty years, its red flowers turn a purple color and it becomes the Blood Sealer.”

“What about this one?”

“This is….”

……

In the Master and Disciple pair, one asked and the other answered. The warm and comfortable atmosphere spread out. It made others unwilling to disturb them. Once Gu Yunjue finished asking all his questions, Mu Chen tested him. He found out that his disciple remembered all of it. It was only then that he got up, satisfied. He allowed Gu Yunjue to wash up and then take a good rest.

Mu Chen started to leave when he felt his sleeve being grabbed. Mu Chen looked down to see his little disciple look at him “shyly with some timidness.” He “cautiously” asked his Master, “Master, can I sleep with you?”
