(TL: Hi, Yue again! I’m quite free this week because It’s our intramurals and I’m not a sporty person, so I have a lot of time to translate. Yey! But anyway, I just wanted to tell you that I’m thankful for your comments and for your time reading the chapters. I feel motivated because of it, so keep it up! And for that, here’s another chapter for you! Expect another one tomorrow. Have fun reading! Xoxo (´>∀<｀)ゝ)
*****
The door to the elder’s house was wide open. Li Yue, with his handsome face covered in bruises, stood there, while saying something angrily.
Shi Dixuan had thrown numerous punches at Li Yue’s face, leaving it all blue and purple, worse than a pig’s head.
But as the saying goes, don’t hit someone in the face. The evidence on the face was too obvious, so it was better to direct the punches to the opponent’s abdomen, where internal injuries could be inflicted without leaving bruises.
Yang Mu had a stern expression and knocked on the door.
Inside the room, two people turned to look at Yang Mu.
Seemingly surprised by Yang Mu’s sudden visit, Elder Wu who was inside hesitated for a moment before standing up and putting on a smiling face to greet him. “Elder Yang, what brings you here today?”
Just a moment ago, Li Yue had been complaining to his master, Elder Wu, about how Shi Dixuan, a disciple of Yang Mu, treated him as if he were invisible. He thought he could see everything and believed that Yang Mu didn’t like his disciple, Shi Dixuan. If given the chance, Yang Mu would definitely replace Shi Dixuan.
Now, seeing Yang Mu suddenly visit, the first thought that flashed in Li Yue’s mind was that Yang Mu had taken a liking to him and wanted him as his disciple.
Li Yue had always been quite confident in his talent.
Yang Mu deliberately wore a cold expression and ignored Elder Wu’s courtesy. Given Elder Yang’s usual cold and distant demeanor, his actions wouldn’t raise suspicions in Elder Wu.
Raising his hand slowly, Yang Mu pointed towards Li Yue. “You, come here.”
This action by Yang Mu further reinforced Li Yue’s belief in his own thoughts. He eagerly rushed over, his eyes shining brightly as he looked at Yang Mu.

He had already made up his mind that once Yang Mu asked Elder Wu to hand him over, he would immediately report Shi Dixuan’s behavior to Yang Mu.

Turning around with a cold demeanor, Yang Mu left a sentence behind, “My disciple is not someone anyone can bully.”
And then Yang Mu seemingly calmly left, leaving Li Yue and Elder Wu in the room looking at each other.
Yang Mu felt a bit excited in his heart. He thought he was incredibly handsome!
When you have cultivation, you can be willful!
***
The matter of Yang Mu standing up for Shi Dixuan quickly spread within the Yu’an Sect.
However, after leaving Elder Wu’s room, Yang Mu didn’t go to find Shi Dixuan. Instead, he went straight back to his own room.
For Yang Mu, stepping up when necessary was important, but meeting face-to-face was unnecessary.
He didn’t want to seek out Shi Dixuan, but after a few days, Shi Dixuan came to find him.
“Thank you.”
Yang Mu had almost forgotten about helping Shi Dixuan before. So when he suddenly expressed his gratitude, Yang Mu involuntarily felt a slight tension in his heart. He looked at Shi Dixuan inexplicably.
After a while, he remembered what had happened earlier. “I am your master.” There was a master-disciple relationship between them, so Shi Dixuan shouldn’t harm him!
This was just Yang Mu’s self-consolation.
In his past life, Shi Dixuan had ruthlessly dealt with his master in the Yu’an Sect.
When Shi Dixuan heard Yang Mu’s words, his typically cold expression momentarily seemed bewildered. Then he lowered his head, his expression complex.
“Master?” he whispered.
Then, he raised his head, his gaze clear as he looked at Yang Mu. “I came this time because I want… to ask for your help.”
Shi Dixuan was seeking his help? Yang Mu asked, “What is it?” As long as it wasn’t something like plucking stars or taking the moon, he would do his best to help Shi Dixuan. It was a rare occasion for him to ask Yang Mu for something.
“I want to go to the Secret Realm in the back mountain to train myself.”
In the Yu’an Sect, there was a Secret Realm in the back mountain, which had existed long before the Founding of the Sect. However, after the Sect’s founder discovered and explored it, finding it not too dangerous, he founded the Sect nearby and used the Secret Realm for disciples’ training.
Of course, for cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, the Secret Realm wasn’t dangerous. But for those below it, it was uncertain.
To enter this Secret Realm, one must have an Elder’s pass. That’s why Shi Dixuan came here, to ask Yang Mu for that pass.
Yang Mu behaved generously, took out the pass from his storage ring, and tossed it into Shi Dixuan’s hand with a flick.
“You may leave if there’s nothing else.” Every time Yang Mu met Shi Dixuan, he always tell Shi Dixuan to leave quickly.
Shi Dixuan had grown accustomed to Yang Mu’s way of interacting with him. In his heart, he felt that Yang Mu was only slightly aloof. He had also observed how Yang Mu interacted with others and noticed that Yang Mu rarely said more than ten sentences.
Yang Mu = Naturally Aloof/Cold.
If Yang Mu knew what Shi Dixuan thought of him, he would definitely laugh three times. If not for his fear of exposing himself and the mysterious fragrance on his body, he would probably be even more lively than anyone else.
As Shi Dixuan was about to leave, Yang Mu suddenly remembered something. He stopped Shi Dixuan and asked, “How are those two beastmen doing now?”
“They’re doing fine,” Shi Dixuan replied.
“!” Yang Mu nodded with a cold expression, and Shi Dixuan left on his own.
At the moment he crossed the threshold, Shi Dixuan turned and glanced at Yang Mu with mixed emotions.
He had checked that the little rabbit had suffered no harm, but the little horse was almost depleted of energy. This horse was still in its juvenile state, not fully matured, and had been forcibly accelerated with elixirs. This had caused significant damage to the horse’s body, and its future cultivation might be limited to a single stage.
Yet, Yang Mu had entrusted these two beasts to him. During the time he observed them, Yang Mu hadn’t captured any other beastmen. This left Shi Dixuan very puzzled.
Had Yang Mu accelerated the horse’s maturation and drained its energy?
If he had…
Shi Dixuan’s eyes were deep, and he had sworn that he would make anyone who had harmed the Beast Clan pay the price!
For some inexplicable reason, Yang Mu shivered in his room. He tightened his clothes around him. He was already in the Nascent Soul stage, yet he could still feel the cold?
Touching his chin, Yang Mu thought about the Secret Realm in the back mountains. If Shi Dixuan hadn’t mentioned it, he might have forgotten that the Yu’an Sect had such a place.
He hadn’t been there yet. Maybe he should go take a look in the next few days.
Thank You for the new chapter ♡(ŐωŐ人)
(ृ´͈ ᵕ `͈ ृ )
I’m so scared that the past Yang Mu actually did do something, and he can’t really explain his actions can he?
Plus I totally know the feeling of pretending to be aloof or cold to people, while being the most annoying person there ever could be.
Elder Yang must really have done something. ՞߹ – ߹՞
thank you for the chapter!
Past yang mu please be a inocent 🥲
