~7 min read 1,297 words

Just as Yun Qiyue was feeling extremely uneasy, her body suddenly lifted into the air.

"Ah—"

The feeling of weightlessness made Yun Qiyue let out a scream, and then Yun Qiyue sadly discovered that she had experienced the feeling of a roller coaster again.

If Yun Qiyue's heart hadn't been strong, she would have been streaming tears by now. "Jiuyuan, I was wrong, okay?"

Yun Qiyue admitted defeat again.

She had never been this cowardly in both her lives combined.

But the feeling of being lifted by the collar and going up and down in the air was truly terrifying. She didn't dare to move, fearing that if the collar tore, she would be smashed to pieces.

Therefore, compared to face or whatever, her life was more important.

Besides, admitting defeat to an absolute powerhouse was not shameful.

Ye Lanjue glanced at Yun Qiyue, who was too scared to open her eyes, and the corners of his lips unconsciously curled into an arc, but he snorted coldly, "I thought you were fearless, it turns out you have things you fear too."

Yun Qiyue: "..." Yes, she was afraid of heights, who told her she couldn't fly?

"Jiuyuan, you are a magnanimous person, don't hold it against a small woman like me, okay?" Yun Qiyue continued to beg.

In her heart, however, she was cursing Jiuyuan to death.

Damn Jiuyuan, she hadn't offended her, why call her here in the middle of the night to torture her like this?

A man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; Jiuyuan's heart is simply the sand at the bottom of the sea.

"In view of your good admission of guilt, I have decided to let you off."

Yun Qiyue heard Ye Lanjue say this, and just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Yun Qiyue's eyes widened.

She was dropped!

She was dropped in mid-air!

Help!

Yun Qiyue only felt her body falling downward at an extremely fast speed, but without a fulcrum, she couldn't save herself at all.

"Ah—"

A late scream couldn't even be fully shouted from her throat before a "Bang—" sound rang out.

It was the sound of a heavy object falling into water.

"Gurgle—" The unexpected fall into the water made Yun Qiyue swallow a mouthful of water.

The taste of this water was astringent and bitter.

"Splash—" With a sound, Yun Qiyue splashed out of the water, her hair sticking to her face, looking extremely disheveled.

Compared to Yun Qiyue's disheveled state, Ye Lanjue was standing calmly by the water, looking at her with those cold eyes that seemed to be smiling, with mockery in them.

Yun Qiyue's fists in the water were clenched tight, her eyes red as she glared at Jiuyuan.

Just now, she almost died.

If it weren't for her strong self-control, she would have rushed up to perish together with Jiuyuan right now!

Damn man!

"I seem to have heard you cursing me."

Jiuyuan's cold voice came.

Hearing this, Yun Qiyue gave a fake smile. "How could I dare?" It sounded quite like she was gritting her teeth.

Seeing Yun Qiyue like this, Ye Lanjue gave a light snort, offering no comment.

Yun Qiyue took a deep breath, meeting Jiuyuan's gaze expressionlessly. "Pavilion Master Jiuyuan shouldn't be idle enough to come find amusement in me in the middle of the night. I wonder what business you have with me?"

Upon hearing Yun Qiyue ask this, Ye Lanjue immediately thought of the scene where Yun Qiyue was with He Mingxuan, and his face darkened a few degrees.

Yun Qiyue inexplicably felt the air pressure around her drop, and then looking at Jiuyuan's eyes, she seemed to feel Jiuyuan's anger.

Yun Qiyue: "..."

This man is moody, getting angry for no reason. Fortunately, she finally decided to let Ye Lanjue be her recharge device instead of this man.

Compared to the cold and arrogant Ye Lanjue, this Jiuyuan was clearly more difficult to deal with.

Yun Qiyue decided not to get to the bottom of it and was about to climb ashore.

"You'd better not move." Ye Lanjue said coldly.

Yun Qiyue frowned, not wanting to listen, but also not wanting to provoke this inexplicable man in front of her, so she stopped and asked with some anger and helplessness, "What exactly do you want?"

Seeing that Yun Qiyue was truly angry, Ye Lanjue couldn't help but purse his thin lips. "Didn't you want me to teach you martial arts?"

"When did I ever want you to teach me martial arts? I clearly..." Speaking of this, Yun Qiyue suddenly paused, looking at Jiuyuan in disbelief. "You... teach me martial arts?"

Did she hear wrong?

Seeing Yun Qiyue's suspicious expression, Ye Lanjue's face turned ugly again. "What, I'm not good enough?"

Yun Qiyue: "No, no..."

How could Jiuyuan not be good enough?

How could it be possible for him not to be good enough?

He was a figure everyone feared; having such a person teach her martial arts was definitely her gain, right?

"But, why you?" Having a figure like Jiuyuan teach her martial arts, no matter how she thought about it, it felt like a dream.

Ye Lanjue looked at Yun Qiyue's dazed and pleasantly surprised expression, feeling somewhat pleased. "What, am I not the most powerful one?"

Ye Lanjue stared at Yun Qiyue, giving the feeling that if Yun Qiyue dared to say he wasn't the most powerful, he would strangle her.

Hearing this, Yun Qiyue thought of the look in Jiuyuan's eyes when he promised her earlier.

So, when he told her not to worry and that he would be the most powerful expert, that powerful expert was Jiuyuan himself.

Suddenly, Yun Qiyue felt that Jiuyuan wasn't so hateful anymore.

Thus, Yun Qiyue, who had been furious a moment ago, was beaming with joy the next. "How could that be? Pavilion Master, you are definitely the most powerful one."

Although she didn't know how strong Jiuyuan was, just based on Jiuyuan's image in everyone's hearts, Yun Qiyue was incomparably certain of this person's greatness.

This thigh is really thick!

Thinking this, Yun Qiyue looked at Jiuyuan with a serious expression and bowed to him. "Disciple pays respects to Master."

Since he was going to teach her martial arts, the apprenticeship was naturally indispensable.

Calling this man "Master," she didn't lose anything at all.

Ye Lanjue looked at Yun Qiyue's non-standard male bowing gesture and looked at her with disdain. "Have time to learn etiquette."

Yun Qiyue: "..." Was he looking down on her?

Forget it, for the sake of him being her Master, she wouldn't hold it against him.

However, Yun Qiyue suddenly thought of something. "Then Xiaoman... my subordinate, is he also being taught by you personally?"

Yun Qiyue thought, teaching one is teaching, teaching two is also teaching, Xiaoman should also be able to get Jiuyuan's personal instruction, right?

However, after hearing Yun Qiyue's question, Ye Lanjue looked at her with disdain. "Is he worthy?"

Did he look that idle?

Was he really so idle that he wanted to take on apprentices?

Yun Qiyue: "... Then..."

Ye Lanjue: "Rest assured, he will train with my Ghost Night Pavilion subordinates."

This was already a tremendous favor.

Yun Qiyue thought of the masked people she had seen, who also came and went without a trace, so she nodded. "Thank you, Master."

Ye Lanjue frowned.

This woman, has she gotten used to calling me Master?

He felt inexplicably unhappy, but seeing Yun Qiyue's bright eyes, Ye Lanjue ultimately said nothing.

Then, Yun Qiyue asked, "Master, when will you teach me martial arts?"

Thinking that she would soon be able to fly into the sky herself, Yun Qiyue was full of excitement. ===== CHAPTER 84 =====
