Chapter 2675: Master and Disciple United
Yun Jianyue’s eyes lit up. “As expected of the disciple I raised. You had the same thought as me!”
Qiu Honglei was surprised. “You also thought of that, master?”
Yun Jianyue nodded awkwardly. “I couldn’t stand the thought of being mocked by that ice sculpture for the rest of my life, so I thought I’d make her like me. Neither of us can mock the other then. I didn’t think that deeply into it, but I guess it’d indeed be more embarrassing for them.”
Qiu Honglei was enthused. “Master, how’s your progress?”
Yun Jianyue frowned. “My gut feeling tells me something is off about that ice sculpture and Ah Zu, but I can’t put my finger on it.”
“Tell me about it. What feels off?” Qiu Honglei asked with widened eyes.
Yun Jianyue shared the earlier incident, especially how unnatural Yan Xuehen looked when she returned to her body. “Their explanation made sense, but something seems to be off.”
Qiu Honglei nodded in agreement. “Indeed. How can Ah Zu not be tempted by someone as beautiful as Sect Master Yan? I didn’t think about it back then, but if he dares to touch even you, master, what else would he dare not do?”
Yun Jianyue’s eyebrows shot up. “You lass! You’re making fun of me!”
Qiu Honglei hugged her arm and coyly replied, “Master, I’m just stating facts here. Don’t take it to heart.”
Yun Jianyue continued, “Ah Zu has always been fearless and brazen. It is indeed likely for him to have made a move on that ice sculpture. But I've known that ice sculpture for many years. She isn’t the type who would get involved with her disciple’s man...”
Qiu Honglei grudgingly murmured, “Master, are you conceding that you’re inferior to Sect Master Yan in that aspect?”
