Martial Cultivator Chapter 265.2: We’ll Ultimately Turn to Dust - Part 2

Yun Jianyue's cheeks reddened, thinking: I haven't even said what I want to do, how co you seem to know as if you do?"

Ye Zhihua said, "You're one step ahead of ."

Yun Jianyue naturally knew that Ye Zhihua was referring to his breakthrough, that he was a little faster than her.

He also knew that Senior Sister was similarly a very proud person. He was thinking about how to explain this matter to her, but after so consideration, he shook his head.

"Senior Sister, I have always wanted to tell you that my aptitude is actually higher than yours."

Yun Jianyue was very serious, looking at Ye Zhihua as he said, "If it weren't for these years when I couldn't figure out this matter, I'd have probably broken through long ago. How could I be like this now?"

Ye Zhihua did not smile. She just looked at Yun Jianyue and said, "For so many years, you didn't dare to say much. Now it seems like you can't close that door, having a lot to say at once?"

Yun Jianyue nodded and said, "For all these years, I always thought Senior Sister didn't like . Naturally, there were many things I wanted to tell Senior Sister, but I never said them."

Ye Zhihua did not speak, just looked at him.

Yun Jianyue, with a thousand words on his mind, found them all stuck in his throat at this mont.

"Yun Jianyue, have you ever thought about what would you do if you told you liked today, but I still said I didn't like you? Would your Dao heart shatter?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Jianyue's expression beca sowhat subtle. He had naturally thought about this kind of outco. It was the worst conclusion. If he confessed his feelings and was still rejected, what would he do?

"I would probably be heartbroken, but my Dao heart shouldn't shatter. Liking you is my business, and if Senior Sister doesn't like , that's your business too. Even if Senior Sister rejects , I can still continue to like Senior Sister for the rest of my life, without any concerns."

When Yun Jianyue spoke, there was a hint of sadness. He was actually very heartbroken. If it were really like that, would he not be heartbroken for many years?

Ye Zhihua shook her head and said, "Useless."

"If I were you, I would think, 'I, Yun Jianyue, am so amazing, the most outstanding junior in the Dao society of this generation. I like you, but you don't like . That's your loss. Is it worth being heartbroken?'"

Ye Zhihua's expression was calm, and it was hard to discern her current thoughts and feelings.

Yun Jianyue frowned and said, "Senior Sister might think like that, but I'm not Senior Sister. Anyway, I don't think that way."

At this mont, he was a little stubborn, looking like a child.

Just like when he was in the temple before, if he heard sothing unpleasant, he would debate with people, and the young daoists in the temple at that ti all felt that this junior brother was too stubborn. They felt that he might not achieve much in the future. So those daoists who were older than him would tease him.

"When I argued with people back then, I'd end up just crying if I couldn't win, making a lot of noise next to that small stream."

Ye Zhihua looked at Yun Jianyue and frowned, "At that ti, I also thought you were useless."

Yun Jianyue suddenly beca a little embarrassed and said softly, "So Senior Sister knew back then."

Ye Zhihua did not say anything.

Yun Jianyue suddenly asked, "Was it Senior Sister who intervened later?"

At that ti, he was bullied, which was not a big deal, and he did not tell the elders either. But soon, the senior brothers stopped bullying him. He originally thought that maybe a certain elder had learned about the situation and intervened to stop it. But thinking about it now, how could things be so simple?

It should have been this senior sister in front of him.

Ye Zhihua did not refute, saying calmly, "It's just that I thought you were too noisy. You were still a child. I couldn't deal with you, so I could only deal with them."

Yun Jianyue muttered, "But wasn't Senior Sister also a child back then?"

Ye Zhihua was only slightly older than him, so she was naturally still young at that ti, not as old as those senior brothers, nor at their cultivation realms.

Ye Zhihua did not elaborate, just saying lightly, "Dealing with them has never been a troubleso thing."

Yun Jianyue nodded. He was about to speak but realized that the question he wanted to ask had already been answered by his senior sister.

Hence, he just kept silent.

But after a mont, Yun Jianyue laughed again, "Turns out that Senior Sister was already paying attention to back then."

Ye Zhihua did not refute. She just held the white flower, quietly watching him.

Yun Jianyue felt a little dazed under her gaze. It was only after a long ti that he softly called out, "Senior Sister."

Ye Zhihua responded softly with a "Hmm."

Yun Jianyue then asked, "Senior Sister, you really don't know how to smile?"

Ye Zhihua shook her head.

Yun Jianyue frowned and asked, "Then why haven't I ever seen Senior Sister smile?"

Ye Zhihua countered, "Do you think there was anything worth being happy about for all these years?"

For so many years, she had been cultivating on the mountain. Breaking through a cultivation realm after several years of cultivation might be a joyous occasion for other cultivators. But for Ye Zhihua, it was just an ordinary event. There was nothing particularly joyous about it, it was just commonplace.

As for other things, whether it was the rewards from the elders or mastering a certain daoist spell, they were all ordinary matters, and not particularly worthy of being happy either.

Yun Jianyue beca sowhat lancholic and murmured softly, "I also don't know what could make Senior Sister happy."

Ye Zhihua looked at him and was not in a hurry to speak. After a long ti, she said softly, "When you beco capable."

Yun Jianyue subconsciously acknowledged, and then he belatedly began to smile.

His eyes lit up, suddenly blossoming.

Ye Zhihua looked at him and suddenly felt that the eyes of this young daoist in front of her were the most beautiful sight in the world.

Yun Jianyue suddenly opened his mouth and said with a smile, "Senior Sister, I really like you!

Ye Zhihua did not answer.

Yun Jianyue continued, "I will keep on liking you, forever and ever!"

Ye Zhihua still did not speak.

Yun Jianyue stopped talking and just looked at her, waiting for the response he wanted.

After a long ti, Ye Zhihua finally said, "Understood."

Yun Jianyue was not very satisfied.

Ye Zhihua did not want to deal with this annoying junior brother.

Yun Jianyue felt a little dejected, looking pitiful and helpless, like a small, forlorn animal.

Ye Zhihua furrowed her brows slightly.

Yun Jianyue said softly, "Senior Sister..."

He intentionally dragged out the last syllable, making it sound a little clingy, more like he was acting spoiled.

This was very strange indeed. If other cultivators were to find out that this daoist genius was acting like this, their jaws would probably hit the ground in astonishnt.

But Ye Zhihua remained unmoved, never giving the answer Yun Jianyue wanted.

Ye Zhihua glanced at him a few tis and could feel this guy's disappointed emotions.

"Stop watching."

She suddenly spoke indifferently, but her eyes were fixed on the bright moon.

The young disciples below the cliff could already sense a special atmosphere and knew that Ye Zhihua's words were directed at them.

The young disciples quickly got up, casting reluctant glances in their direction before laughing and leaving one after another.

Senior Brother Yun was easy to talk to, with a good temper. They would probably dare to joke with him and say so casual remarks, but Ye Senior Sister was not that kind of person. Her cold temperant was well-known in the temple.

"Temple Master."

Ye Zhihua spoke again.

There probably would not be many people in the entire Infatuation Daoist Temple who dared to speak to the Temple Master in this manner.

That Temple Master who had been watching the show from afar rubbed his forehead. He was well aware of his profound cultivation realm. If he stayed here all the way, Ye Zhihua would not have known about his existence.

However, since that girl had already spoken, the Temple Master just touched his nose and his figure dissipated into thin air.

On this side of the cliff, there was no one left.

Only then, did Ye Zhihua retract her gaze.

Yun Jianyue was still waiting for that answer, even though he knew it was unlikely to co. Nevertheless, he wanted to persevere for a little longer.

But Ye Zhihua remained unmoved.

Yun Jianyue was thoroughly disappointed and no longer held any hope.

Yet, the next mont, he suddenly felt as if there was a cold jade in his palm.

That feeling was very special, and he could not resist using his fingers to rub it.

Then he heard a faint nasal sound.

Just as he was about to look down, a voice sounded out, "Don't look."

Yun Jianyue looked up in astonishnt.

But he already understood.

It was Ye Zhihua who held his hand.

But soon after, a sowhat disdainful voice sounded out once again, "Useless, getting nervous for what? Sweating so much..."
