Chapter 72 - The Melody of Warm Jade
Chapter 72: The Melody of Warm Jade
Chu Xianning quickly closed the door and returned to her room.
Jiang Huai stood there, grinning foolishly for a while. It was rare to have a moment of playful banter with his master. When she was in a bad mood before, she would ignore him, or if he accidentally went too far, he would get a beating. It seemed Master was in a good mood today.
Jiang Huai plucked a peach branch from the courtyard and swung it around as if it were a spiritual sword. At the ninth level of the Immaculate Golden Body, he should have combat power close to that of a Core Formation cultivator at full completion. He needed to take some time to adapt to it.
……
Inside the room.
Chu Xianning had not gone to bed.
She often suffered from insomnia, so she usually went to bed late. After locking the door, Chu Xianning opened her wardrobe. She first took out her diary and, after hesitating for a moment, added a few sentences to it.
“The rebellious disciple has been increasingly rampant lately. I need to find an opportunity to properly discipline him.”
Chu Xianning had grown accustomed to recording the events of each day over the years. Otherwise, she tended to forget. She had lived for six hundred years, and many of the people and events she had seen during that time were no longer clear in her memory. Only the memories of the last few decades remained vivid.
After finishing her diary entry, she carefully put it away and took out a delicately crafted little book from the other side of the wardrobe. The book even had some illustrations, and the cover bore gilded characters:
The Melody of Warm Jade.
