Chapter 15: Young Master.
Mu Lin closed her eyes tightly, refusing to meet his gaze.
This son of a bitch, why is he staring at me like that?! How dare he look at me so casually. Who does he think he is?!
"You\'re the one who should chill out," she muttered with a tense voice. "This wasn\'t what I wanted."
Yang Wei chuckled and let his fingers trail up her exposed thigh, causing Mu Lin to bite her lip in an attempt to stifle a moan.
"Do you like it?" he asked with a smug grin.
"NO!" Mu Lin exclaimed, her eyes snapping open.
Without a second thought, she lashed out with a punch towards Yang Wei\'s stomach, but he dodged it effortlessly, moving as though he\'d teleported.
Looking around, she saw no sight of him.
"That perverted bastard! I\'ll get him next time!"
Frustrated and angry, Mu Lin stormed out of the courtyard, muttering curses under her breath.
Yang Wei watched her leave and sighed. "At least she\'s gone," he murmured to himself. "It would\'ve been so much more complicated if Lingxi had found out."
Finding a spot to rest behind a tree, Yang Wei closed his eyes and stretched, muttering, "Finally, I can cultivate in peace."
With that, he headed back into his house, hoping for some peace and quiet.
Meanwhile, a young disciple had been watching the entire scene unfold from a distance. His jaw was clenched in anger as he witnessed Yang Wei\'s behavior towards Mu Lin.
The fact that he\'d witnessed a supposedly unknown plebeian laying a hand on jade-like beauty was visually irritating.
"How dare that junior lay a finger on someone as pure and beautiful as Senior Sister Lin... No, how dare he even breathe the same air as her!" he seethed. "The Young Master must know about this."
With disgust in his eyes, the young man set off to find the Young Master and report what he had seen.
"Hmph!"
He uttered as he dramatically flung his robes outward as he walked down the bustling road path.
...
After some time, the disciple had made his way to the location of the Young Master which was in one of the many forests within the Spirit Harmony Peak.
"Young Master!"
"Young Master!"
The disciple shouted several times. It was obvious that he wasn\'t simply doing this because he believed the Young Master had to know, he did so because he wanted to get on his good side. If he could, then the disciple would be able to get much more expensive pills and resources to better his cultivation base in the future.
This selfish young disciple was named, Wu Fengtian.
"Young Master!" Wu Fengtian shouted again.
Of the four people who surrounded the Young Master, one pointed at Wu Fengtian and told him, "What\'s the problem?"
"I have serious news," Wu Fengtian replied.
"It can wait, the Young Master is... busy."
The reply was such an odd one. Because of that, Wu Fengtian was urged to charge forward in order to see what was really going on. He saw a disciple on his knees with his head hung low in shame.
And standing like a giant over the disgraced disciple was Jin Tianyu, the Young Master.
Jin Tianyu is a potential heir to the illustrious Jin Clan, a revered family with a deep-rooted history in the Azure Water Realm.
The Jin Clan holds a prominent position within the cultivation society, with vast estates, renowned martial academies, and influential alliances. They are the chief patrons of the Azure Lotus Sect, a prestigious school specializing in water-based cultivation.
Due to some complications, the sect and its members ascended to the Mashyan World to become a branch sect of the Dragon Blossom Sect.
The family\'s wealth is derived not only from their successful businesses in trade but also from the rare and valuable aquatic treasures harvested from their ancestral domain.
Currently, the Young Master was supposedly teaching a junior some manners.
The junior had wounds on his body and a very swollen face; as though he was pummeled to a pulp.
"Junior, you dare defile jade-like beauty? Have you mistaken our cultivation realm for a romantic playground?"
The junior cried back, "Young Master, I swear it was an accident!"
"Accident?" Jin Tianyu lifted an eyebrow. "In the world of cultivation, we control our every move with precision. Even my pet phoenix has better control of its feathers than you do with your wandering hands."
"I beg for mercy, Young Master. It was a momentary lapse in judgment!"
"Lapse in judgment? In the time it takes for me to recite a water cultivation mantra, you managed to tarnish the reputation of our entire sect. My patience is thinner than a celestial thread."
The junior continued to cry, his face hurting each time he did.
"I am truly sorry, Young Master. Please spare my life and my meaningless cultivation, and I promise to cultivate self-control diligently."
"Self-control? Perhaps you should consider cultivating on a deserted island, far away from any female disciples. It seems that is the only environment suitable for someone of your... audacity."
The junior bowed deeply, "I... I... I shall heed your wise counsel, Young Master. I shall cultivate in isolation a... and seek redemption." He was already whimpering with each word he spoke.
"Isolation?"
The tone of Jin Tianyu\'s voice was enough to show that he wasn\'t satisfied.
He continued, "Perhaps on the distant Cloudless Summit, where even the cranes would hesitate to associate with one as socially inept as you. Go, Junior, and may your next encounter with a beauty of this sect be as distant as the realms of the nine heavens!"
Without even wasting so much as a second, the junior ran as though his life depended on it. With each step he took, his insides hurt more and more. He had several broken bones in his body; it was a divine miracle that he could even still walk let alone run.
"Young Master, are you seriously going to let that cockroach live?!" one of the people around him asked.
Jin Tianyu glared at the young man asking the question. "Of course not, I shall appoint him as the Peak\'s official entertainment for the spirit beasts and when they eat him raw, I\'ll make sure to erase his filthy corpse."
Wu Fengtian watched as the Young Master, Jin Tianyu, finished adjusting his robes and prepared to depart.
Seeing this, Wu Fengtian called out, "Young Master!"
Jin Tianyu turned to face him and inquired, "Yes, Fengtian, what is it?"
Hehe! Now\'s my chance! Wu Fengtian thought.
Excitedly, Wu Fengtian rushed toward Jin Tianyu, pointing in the western direction as he blurted out, "I just witnessed a junior making advances towards Senior Sister Lin!"
The moment these words reached Jin Tianyu\'s ears, his brows furrowed and his fists clenched in anger.
Attempting to control his emotions, he questioned Wu Fengtian, "How do you know it was a junior?"
Wu Fengtian explained, "The guy was wearing tattered robes. He must be a commoner who somehow managed to join as a candidate for the outer sect entrance exams."
Jin Tianyu nodded in understanding and absentmindedly ran his fingers through his long, black hair.
Behind him, Huo Zhenwei, one of the people among his entourage, adjusted his glasses and interjected, "Young Master, it\'s possible that this junior, who we don\'t even know his name, is not even affiliated with any of the five Peaks. After all, that\'s the normal procedure, outer sect member candidates aren\'t allowed into sect grounds until they successfully pass the exams..."
"And so?" The ignorant Young Master asked.
"Shouldn\'t we investigate further before taking any action?" Huo Zhenwei proposed.
Jin Tianyu contemplated for a moment before acknowledging Huo Zhenwei\'s point. "Yes, you do make a compelling point," he said.
Wu Fengtian, clearly agitated, fumed at the suggestion.
This bastard is about to spoil my entire plan to gain favour from Jin Tianyu! Why can\'t you be a mindless follower of the Young Master and shut your dirty mouth... he thought furiously.
Then, Wu Fengtian blurted out, "Young Master, I don\'t know the junior\'s name, but I know where he\'s staying. I\'m certain he lured Senior Sister Lin into his courtyard. And if I saw it, I\'m sure several others did too. If you intend to court Senior Sister Lin in the future, ignoring this would only damage your reputation as a capable spouse."
Jin Tianyu\'s frown deepened, and he tightened his fists, declaring, "You\'re right. How dare that junior?! Puny brat who doesn\'t know the immensity of Heaven and Earth!!"
With the Young Master provoked, all Wu Fengtian could do was grin with satisfaction.
On the other hand, Huo Zhenwei sighed uncomfortably as he watched Jin Tianyu from behind.
