Heroic Chivalry: The Green Legend – Chapter Fourteen: Strife
In a large courtyard at the rear of Heroic Chivalry Manor, several children were practicing martial arts under our guidance. Sister Yuyan was instructing Ruoxue and Tianling, while Jingyi was not far away, teaching Xuanchong. With their new sword techniques and the help of the spiritual medicine I provided, Ruoxue and Tianling had made rapid progress in the past ten days and could now be considered minor experts. However, despite their quick improvement, they still lagged far behind Xuanchong. Thanks to his high compatibility with his body and cultivation method, plus my medicinal support, Xuanchong had now mastered the fifth level of the Nine Yang Divine Art. In terms of internal power, he was already comparable to a typical first-rate expert. However, his greatest talent was always in unarmed combat, which he had never systematically trained, and since I wasn’t skilled in that area, it had been delayed for a few days. Now, with Jingyi who had trained under our mistress in the divine realm teaching him, it was the perfect arrangement.
I had already given all the martial arts sets I brought from my master’s cave to Jingyi, but they weren’t of much further help to her. After all, in the divine realm, our mistress had already taught her a lot. If I hadn’t just made a breakthrough yesterday, I wouldn’t even know who was stronger between me and Jingyi. But for now, I didn’t want to reveal my true strength my master had warned me not to reveal myself until I reached demi-immortal status. Clearly, our future enemies are of demi-immortal level. Now, I can already use the first move of the Three Divine Skills, and it won’t be long before I comprehend the second. Even using just the sixth level of Qiankun Wuji Gong, I am currently the top expert in the martial world Feng Tianhao definitely wouldn’t be my match.
Watching Ruoxue and Tianling practicing under Sister Yuyan’s guidance, I couldn’t help but recall last night’s events: Ruoxue’s fair body, Tianling’s playful cuteness they were unforgettable. Then, I looked over at Xuanchong, training under Jingyi. Although he often slept with Sister Yuyan, I still felt a bit guilty for having slept with Ruoxue behind his back. But now that Jingyi was about to accompany him, I didn’t feel I’d wronged him anymore.
Right now, both Jingyi and Xuanchong were awkward around each other. Whenever they got close, their innate attraction Nine Yin and Nine Yang made them irresistibly drawn to one another. If not for their status difference, they’d already be like fire and dry wood. But as one was his mistress and the other her disciple, and with me present, they didn’t dare get too close. Watching them too shy to even touch, I couldn’t help but shake my head.
"Jingyi, you’re here to teach Xuanchong martial arts how can he learn anything like this?" I sent a voice transmission to Jingyi.
"But... but I..." Jingyi froze, unable to explain herself.
"I know, you’re a Nine Yin and he’s a Nine Yang, your bodies naturally attract each other. But Xuanchong is your disciple, you can’t let that stop you from teaching him, right?" I replied. Understanding her concerns, I added, "Jingyi, I know what you’re worried about, but let me tell you, there’s no need. As long as you love me in your heart, I don’t care about anything else. If you can’t help yourself, just follow your desires! I won’t blame you, really. Whatever happens between you two, I won’t ask, and you don’t need to say just let it be!"
After hearing my words, Jingyi turned to look at me, her eyes a little confused and uneasy. But I said nothing more, leaving her to decide for herself. My words were just to put her at ease. If she felt guilty about cheating with Xuanchong, I’d do something else to comfort her like telling her about my relationship with Ruoxue.
While I was watching everyone practice, Cai Ying came running over in a panic. She said, "Master, Elder Fang and Elder Yang have returned they... they..."
