Chapter 13: The Ancestral Master Resolves Doubts
Ye Yuan thought this new little disciple was a bit strange. He had been asleep for so long that he could barely remember how many years he had been residing in the spirit tablet. Only after awakening did he realize that in the entire Qingyang Temple, there was only that rotten piece of wood left.
He had always loved quiet and never cared much about the temple’s affairs. But even so, he could still confirm one thing—Bai Yu was definitely the stupidest disciple he had ever had.
His aptitude was terrible, his mind was dull, and though he always shouted about revitalizing Qingyang, he had no idea Ye Yuan even existed. After decades of tossing about, he still hadn’t opened the Heavenly Eye, not even the Yin-Yang Eye. Ye Yuan himself felt Qingyang was bound to collapse sooner or later. If not for Bai Yu’s daily incense offerings without fail, showing a heart at least sincerely devoted to the Dao, Ye Yuan might have expelled him long ago.
So when Bai Yu brought this girl Yun Jiao over, the difference was stark—like night and day. Ye Yuan, who had been bored and ready to go back into slumber, suddenly became interested. As usual, he casually handed her a cultivation manual.
To him, it wasn’t anything special. He had always done this for those who came to pay respects. Of course, Bai Yu had never been able to see him at all, so he was excluded. He had even copied an extra manual these past few days, thinking maybe the next person who came could also receive one.
But just five days later, that little disciple had returned.
He thought it was normal—she was young, had only just entered the Dao, and with only Bai Yu by her side, of course she would struggle with understanding the Xuanxin Jue. It was natural for her to come to him for guidance. That was why he appeared—absolutely not because he was bored.

Who could have guessed? Not only did she indeed have questions, but they were significant ones. And then she shoved a stack of five books into his hands. Besides the Xuanxin Jue, the other four were each thicker than the original. With a sweep of his divine sense, he instantly grasped their contents.
