Chapter 106: Five Elements Body

Bai Yuan felt a sigh in his heart.

No wonder the four previous Mu Junwu had such a great difference in temperament; it's actually because they each only inherited a part of Mu Junwu.

"Junwu, you're cheating too hard, you've earned a title!" Bai Yuan withdrew his hand, smiling as he pinched Mu Junwu's cheek, teasing.

"Cheating?" Mu Junwu understood the meaning.

She looked at Bai Yuan with resentful eyes, pouting: "This cheat wasn't given by Master? It's all Master's fault."

Bai Yuan smiled and said: "Alright, as your master I guarantee I will let you reunite perfectly, with no accidents."

Mu Junwu shook her head and said: "Master, they are all disciples; disciples hope you will treat them as you treat me. And if in the end I cannot return, let them take my place beside you. After all, they are all me."

Bai Yuan startled, his previous thought was that once the five Mu Junwu each cultivated to Great Accomplishment, he would forcibly fuse them.

Therefore, his earlier joke teasing Mu Junwu was merely to ease the atmosphere of parting, so she wouldn't worry about his return.

As a result, she now says this.

Mu Junwu then gently said: "Master, they are all me; their emotions will be inherited by me after fusion, like the killing intent I once had toward that person. So Master, you wouldn't want the disciple to hate you after reuniting, right? Moreover, at that time, was she still a disciple?"

Bai Yuan fell silent.

Mu Junwu then said to herself: "Master, the disciple's metal body has strong killing intent, rather cold; I hope you will strictly restrain it. The water body is silent and taciturn, suspicious; I hope you will chat with it when you have nothing to do."

"The fire body is upright, short-tempered; I hope you will tolerate it. The earth body is simple and honest; just don't let it be bullied. As for the wood body... its body often feels unwell; Master, if you have a way to help it, please do."

Mu Junwu didn't know what words to use to describe the wood body's personality; she could only express the feelings that appeared on it.

Bai Yuan didn't know how to answer.

Because he understood Mu Junwu's thoughts, she now appears to be settling her affairs, completely without hope of reuniting.

Five Elements Flawless Unity is easy to say but hard to do, after all it's a technique created by five powerful beings, not one person.

To perfectly unite the Five Elements Body, the first difficulty is that each of the Five Elements Body's techniques must be cultivated to Great Accomplishment; otherwise only a temporal unity can be achieved.

The second difficulty is whether they are willing to unite, or whether a powerful being can use supreme mighty power to force their unity.

The third difficulty, and the hardest, is to unify the Five Emperors Classic, perfectly merging the techniques created by the five powerful beings!

When Mu Junwu's last words fell, the five-colored light on her body finally reached its utmost brilliance, then instantly the five colors separated, forming five figures that appeared around Bai Yuan.

"Disciples greet Master." The five spoke in unison.

Their words were exactly the same, but their tones and the way they looked at Bai Yuan differed; yet he could feel the sincerity they inherited from Mu Junwu.

Bai Yuan couldn't help sighing: "You all know about me and Junwu, so can you tell me your thoughts?"

Among them, the brown-haired, brown-eyed, honest and simple earth aspect of Mu Junwu was the first to respond: "I will obey everything the master says."

The red-haired like fire, dark-pupiled, upright and easily angered fire aspect of Mu Junwu also spoke: "We all originate from her; if she wishes to return, we ought to fulfill it, especially since she still had the master treat us as he treated her until the end."

The ice-blue haired, deep sea-blue eyed water aspect of Mu Junwu coldly said: "Perhaps she said that just to make us willingly unite."

"Water body? What do you mean? Want to fight?" The fire aspect's surrounding air suddenly twisted, rolling heat waves spreading outward.

The water body did not answer.

The white-haired, golden-eyed Mu Junwu looked coldly.

The wood aspect, which originally resembled Mu Junwu, at some point came to Bai Yuan's side, wrapped his hand, and said: "Master, if you have a way to help the disciple resolve her bodily problems, the disciple will follow you."

Bai Yuan felt only a headache watching them.

Three women, one show.

Fully five women's show is even more.

Even Bai Yuan felt that if he weren't here, the water body would already have fought the fire body; the wood and metal bodies would likely just watch, while only the honest and simple earth body would try to stop the fight.

"Alright, stop the fuss." Bai Yuan said.

The fire body coldly snorted: "Giving the master face."

The water body ignored him.

The wood body shook Bai Yuan's arm, acting coquettish: "Master, do you have a way or not? Give the disciple a hint!"

Bai Yuan firmly shook his head: "No way."

The wood body utterly disbelieving, pouted: "Master, you definitely have a way; since getting close to you, I've felt my body much more comfortable."

Bai Yuan ignored the wood body.

Mu Junwu didn't know the cause of her bodily abnormality; he certainly knew, but she couldn't help the wood aspect resolve it, nor could she let her know the method, otherwise the wood body representing vitality and reproduction would surely run amok.

"You'll get used to it." Bai Yuan answered, then said: "Alright, it's time to find your eldest senior sister."

Everyone set sail.

The wood body still clung to Bai Yuan's hand, but she openly complained, puffing up: "Stingy master, truly stingy, having a way but not telling the disciple."

Bai Yuan sighed: "You can't use that method now."

The wood body's eyes lit up.

If the master admits it, that means there's an opportunity.

"Then when can the disciple use it?"

Bai Yuan said: "After you have a partner."

"Partner?" The wood body laughed: "Master, be my partner!"

Bai Yuan's expression stiffened.

He felt he shouldn't have said that.

After a few seconds, Bai Yuan shook his head: "Master and disciple cannot be partners."

The wood body's eyes twitched slightly; she turned her head toward the metal body and said: "Metal, how about we two become partners?"

The metal body coldly arrogantly replied: "No."

"Fire body, how about us two?"

Only a woman and a man can become partners.

"Water Body, how about you?"

Water Body ignored her.

Wood Body turned her gaze to the last person and said: "Earth Body, if you dare to refuse, I'll beat you."

Bai Yuan: ……

He grabbed Wood Body's ear with his other hand.

"Companions must like each other."

Wood Body nodded, turned her gaze back to Bai Yuan, and earnestly said: "Master, she likes you the most, I also like you the most; do you like me, do you like her?"

Bai Yuan nearly choked on his saliva.

He hastily said: "As master, I misspoke just now. It's not liking, it's love—two people who love each other can become companions."

"Love?" Wood Body fell silent.

Although Mu Junwu had heard the term, they utterly could not comprehend this human emotion, and Wood Body naturally could not understand either.

After a moment of silence, Wood Body suddenly asked: "Master, what is love? Can I love you, can you love me?"

Bai Yuan nearly choked to death on his saliva.

He replied: "Love must be felt with the heart. Moreover, you cannot love the master, and the master cannot love you."

Wood Body asked like a curious baby: "Why?!"

"As just said, master and disciple cannot become companions."

"Why can't master and disciple become companions."

"Master is like a father; how can a father become companions with his daughter."

"Ah! Does that mean a father cannot love his own daughter?"
