Chapter 50: Who Says a Young Maiden Doesn’t Long for Love? She Simply Has Not Yet t the One Who Holds Her Heart

Within the Myriad Dao Academy, no sooner had Xu Ruoshan returned from Qingfeng Sacred Land than he hurried to a great mountain not far from his Cave Dwelling.

In an open clearing upon that mountain, a beautiful black-haired young woman in a long green dress was practicing her sword.

Each move and stance seed plain and unremarkable, yet every one of them contained an indescribable Dao Resonance.

When Xu Ruoshan arrived, the young woman stopped what she was doing and saluted with cupped hands.

“This disciple greets Master.”

“You may rise.”

Xu Ruoshan lifted a hand slightly and helped the young woman up.

She was Luo Qianxue, the disciple Xu Ruoshan intended to entrust to Lu Xunxian.

Luo Qianxue was currently three hundred years old. Two hundred and ninety years ago, when Xu Ruoshan was traveling abroad, he discovered her talent and accepted her as his Direct Disciple.

Luo Qianxue had not disappointed Xu Ruoshan either. In a re two hundred and ninety years, she had cultivated all the way to the Peak of the Saint King Realm. It could be said that, barring unforeseen circumstances, she was certain to Ascend to the Immortal Realm.

It was just a pity that Xu Ruoshan himself was about to Ascend to the Immortal Realm. If he left Luo Qianxue behind in the Myriad Dao Academy, he worried that no one would be able to guide her properly. That was why he had thought of entrusting her to Lu Xunxian.

Xu Ruoshan had not yet spoken, but Luo Qianxue had already sensed that sothing was off with her master.

“Master, is there so important matter?”

“Yes. Your master will soon Ascend to the Immortal Realm, so I have found you a new master.”

Xu Ruoshan did not hide anything and went straight to the point.

But to his surprise, Luo Qianxue’s brows drew together slightly.

“Master, having you alone as my master is enough for .”

“Qianxue, listen to your master. To be able to take that person as your master is your good fortune. Besides, once I Ascend to the Immortal Realm, I likely will not be able to interfere in the affairs of Tiansheng Continent for a very long ti.”

Xu Ruoshan shook his head, his expression solemn.

Hearing her master say this, Luo Qianxue could not help growing sowhat curious, and she asked, “Master, could it be that there is actually soone on Tiansheng Continent who is stronger than you?”

All this ti, Xu Ruoshan had always presented himself to Luo Qianxue as the number one person on Tiansheng Continent. Added to the fact that Luo Qianxue rarely left the academy, she had naturally believed his words.

At this, Xu Ruoshan also recalled the matter, and a trace of awkwardness flashed across his face. He gave a light cough to ease the embarrassnt and said, “Disciple, you must understand one thing. There is always soone stronger, and there is always a higher heaven. Naturally, there are people in this world stronger than your master.”

Even so, Luo Qianxue still wanted to refuse. She valued Xu Ruoshan, this master of hers, very deeply and did not wish to take anyone else as her master.

Seeing this, Xu Ruoshan could not help sighing.

“Very well. Since you are unwilling to take a new master, then so be it. But I have already asked that senior to raise you to the Peak of the Saint Emperor Realm.”

“No matter what, you still have to go and et him. After that, you may decide for yourself.”

Now that her master had spoken to this extent, Luo Qianxue could only agree.

Before long, Xu Ruoshan brought Luo Qianxue to the front of Lu Xunxian’s residence.

At that mont, the two little ones were playing in the courtyard, while Wangcai and the White Jade Horse kept them company nearby.

As for Lu Xunxian, a white hat lay over his face as he basked leisurely in the sun.

The mont he entered, Xu Ruoshan brought Luo Qianxue straight before Lu Xunxian.

“Senior Lu, I have brought my disciple here. Would you take a look?”

At Xu Ruoshan’s words, Lu Xunxian removed the hat covering his face, opened his eyes, and gave Luo Qianxue, who stood beside Xu Ruoshan, a brief look.

As for Luo Qianxue, she had originally been full of disdain inwardly, convinced that no one could possibly be stronger than her master.

But the instant she saw Lu Xunxian, she was utterly captivated.

Even before he had begun cultivating, Lu Xunxian had already been exceptionally handso. After cultivating, he had shed all mortal impurities and now carried the bearing of an immortal sage.

Let alone Luo Qianxue—even other won, upon seeing Lu Xunxian, would likely have secretly given their hearts away.

“Her foundations are quite good.”

With just a single glance, Lu Xunxian could already tell that Luo Qianxue possessed a Saint-Grade Spiritual Root no less impressive than that of his forr wife.

It was simply that Luo Qianxue possessed a Saint-Grade Ice Spiritual Root, while Feng Qingyu had possessed a Saint-Grade Water Spiritual Root.

Hearing this, Xu Ruoshan gave a dry laugh and was just about to say sothing when, to his surprise, Luo Qianxue spoke to Lu Xunxian without the slightest hesitation.

“This disciple greets Master!”

Xu Ruoshan: ???

Wait, had they not just agreed that she would not take a master? Why had she changed her face so quickly?

Still, if Luo Qianxue was willing to take Lu Xunxian as her master, Xu Ruoshan could not have been more pleased.

Lu Xunxian, however, looked rather surprised.

“Old Xu, this is not what we agreed on, is it? Did we not say I would only guide her until she reached the Peak of the Saint Emperor Realm?”

Xu Ruoshan naturally had a response prepared for Lu Xunxian’s question.

“Ahem, Senior Lu, a teacher for a day is a master for life. You are bestowing guidance upon this child Qianxue, so it is only natural for her to call you Master.”

“You... very well. But I will say this first: I will only teach her until the Peak of the Saint Emperor Realm. After that, I will not concern myself with her affairs.”

Lu Xunxian did not bother arguing further over the matter and rely emphasized his condition once more.

“That is only natural.”

Xu Ruoshan did not press the matter. Instead, he turned toward Luo Qianxue with a solemn face.

“From today onward, for the sake of cultivating better and receiving Senior Lu’s guidance more easily, you should move here to Senior Lu’s residence. You have no objections, I trust?”

“I have no objections.”

Naturally, Luo Qianxue had no objections. She would gladly have shared a bed with Lu Xunxian.

Who says a young maiden does not long for love? She simply has not yet t the one who holds her heart.

Over the past two hundred and ninety years, Luo Qianxue had never t a man who could step into her heart. But now, Lu Xunxian had walked straight into it, without even bothering to remove his shoes.

“It seems neither of you has asked for my opinion. I do have an objection.”

At that mont, Lu Xunxian rose to his feet, his brows slightly furrowed.

As he stood up, a naturally domineering aura spread from him, causing Luo Qianxue’s eyes to turn soft and starry, and she looked utterly lovestruck.

Xu Ruoshan: Wait, where was the disciple of mine who was usually as cold and aloof as an iceberg?

“There are already many people living in my residence. Besides, she is your disciple. She should also have a place of her own in the Myriad Dao Academy, so there is no need for her to co here and crowd in as well.”

“Senior Lu, what you say is reasonable. Very well then, Disciple, you may simply co here during the day so that Senior Lu can guide you.”

Xu Ruoshan turned and said to Luo Qianxue.

At this, a trace of reluctance appeared on Luo Qianxue’s face, but in the end, she could only nod in agreent.

“Since Master has spoken, this disciple dares not disobey.”

After that, Xu Ruoshan forcibly dragged Luo Qianxue away.

Once they had left, Lu Xunxian could not help shaking his head. How could he possibly fail to see through Luo Qianxue’s thoughts?

But in his eyes, Luo Qianxue was rely stirred by appearances. That was not true love.

After they departed, Lu Xunxian lay back down once more and resud basking leisurely in the sun, while beside him drifted the laughter of his son and daughter playing nearby.
