It Starts With The Confession To The Beautiful Master

“Then you might as well go die.” Yue Yao didn’t believe his words and said coldly.

Zhang Yi was very anxious. He finally had the chance to meet Yue Yao, and he had to strike while the iron was hot. Otherwise, there might not be any progress for the next month.

“Master, her talent is not bad, and she is also the princess of a great empire. It wouldn’t hurt to take her as a disciple,” Zhang Yi said, glancing at Shen Chenyu, whose talent was only average, but her identity as the Princess of Great Zhou Empire was worth mentioning.

“Oh, then what?” Yue Yao remained unmoved, not even bothering to look at Shen Chenyu.

Zhang Yi furrowed his brows, his heart in turmoil. Yue Yao was in a bad mood now. ‘This won’t work. How can I persuade Yue’er?’ he thought.

Shen Chenyu was clever and noticed Zhang Yi’s dilemma. She knelt down and said, with a sincere expression, “Master, please take me as your disciple. I won’t disturb Senior Brother’s practice, and I can even provide resources from Great Zhou for cultivation.”

Shen Chenyu knew that she had to show her own value at this time, so that Zhang Yi could solve this problem.

“What does that matter?” Yue Yao said arrogantly. Did her sect not have any resources for cultivation?

Just then, Zhang Yi had a sudden idea, and he hesitated as he spoke, “Master… actually…”

“Speak!” Yue Yao gave Zhang Yi a cold look, thinking, ‘If you dare to defy my orders, what else would you not dare to do? ‘

“In fact, I want her to join the sect to help me better cultivate,” Zhang Yi said, not even daring to mention Shen Chenyu’s name, for fear of causing more trouble.

“Zhang Yi, you practice the heartless path. Everyone knows what she thinks of you. How can she help your cultivation?” Yue Yao didn’t believe Zhang Yi’s words. If anyone could help him, it would be her.

“Master, I’m telling the truth!” Zhang Yi pleaded anxiously. He was not lying. Completing the mission would naturally bring rewards, which would help his cultivation, but he couldn’t explain this to Yue Yao.

“Good! You said she would be helpful to your cultivation? Prove it to me!” Yue Yao said angrily.

“How do I prove it? Breakthrough to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm within a month?” Zhang Yi was pleased to hear Yue Yao’s words, as it meant there was still a chance to resolve the matter.

Yue Yao shook her head. “Breaking through to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm within a month is not enough. You and her will have to go to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land to compete for the Barbarian King’s blood.”

“Master!”

Qingyi couldn’t believe what she heard. The Great Barbarian Forbidden Land was one of the four forbidden lands in the Wuling continent, and was extremely dangerous. Many renowned geniuses have died there.

Yue Yao ignored Qingyi and stared at Zhang Yi with her phoenix-like eyes. “As long as you can meet these two conditions, I will let her join my sect.”

“The Great Barbarian Forbidden Land? Master, I can’t accept your offer.” Shen Chenyu knew how dangerous the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land was, and she didn’t want Zhang Yi to take risks for her.

However, Zhang Yi agreed without hesitation. “I’m willing to go to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land to compete for the Barbarian King’s blood. Only then can I grow quickly. In the future, I will protect my master and the Dao sect!”

Zhang Yi felt a little frustrated. He knew how dangerous the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land was, but he had to go for his future happiness.

“Brother Zhang Yi…”

Shen Chenyu was both touched and sad. “Brother Zhang Yi, I’m going back to Great Zhou now. The Great Barbarian Forbidden Land is too dangerous. You must not go there.”

Yue Yao’s eyes flashed with a strange light. She now somewhat believed that Zhang Yi had invited Shen Chenyu to join the sect for the sake of cultivation. Otherwise, he wouldn’t agree so resolutely.

But she didn’t understand love, so she had to find another way to help Zhang Yi.

“Don’t say anymore. Since this is my master’s requirement, I will do it. I will never disobey master’s command in my life!”

Zhang Yi said solemnly. He wanted to improve his impression in Yue Yao’s heart. If he could avoid going to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land, he would.

As soon as he spoke, the Heavenly Fate Map trembled again, and he saw that Yue Yao’s favorability towards him had increased by two stars.

“It works!”

Zhang Yi was overjoyed and continued, “Master, with just one word from you, I will brave any danger. I would face a mountain of blades and go through a sea of fire, not to mention going to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land!”

It seemed that Zhang Yi had forgotten that he had just disobeyed Yue Yao’s orders, but Yue Yao remembered. She coldly snorted, “Your time is running out. If you do not obtain the Barbarian King’s blood within a month, she will never be allowed to set foot in the Dao Sect again.”

Zhang Yi sighed and knew that continuing to speak would not improve his relationship with Yue Yao. He would have to wait for another opportunity in the future.

“Master…”

Zhang Yi wanted to bid farewell to Yue Yao, but she coldly said, “Get lost!”

Zhang Yi and Shen Chenyu felt the overwhelming anger and left without looking back.

“Remember to take Zhang Luoyan with you!” Yue Yao was still worried about Zhang Yi and Shen Chenyu being alone together, so she decided to send Zhang Luoyan with them.

Zhang Yi asked with a bitter face, “Can we not bring her?”

He really did not want to have any more dealings with the chatterbox of the Dao Sect. Who knows what kind of trouble that girl could cause in the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land.

“No!” Yue Yao responded decisively, and then disappeared with Qingyi.

“Well, it looks like I can’t avoid it.” Zhang Yi sighed deeply and had to accept the situation. It went better than he accepted anyway.

He finally understood why the Heavenly Fate Map had given him a month’s time; it was to deal with such a big problem.

At the top of the Moon Shadow Peak, Qingyi tremblingly stood beside Yue Yao and asked softly, “Master, why did you send him to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land? If you really want to take her as your disciple, then just accept her.”

Qingyi had followed Yue Yao for so many years and naturally knew that Yue Yao had already loosened up earlier.

Of course, Yue Yao could directly accept Shen Chenyu as her disciple, but she felt that she had to teach Zhang Yi a lesson, and there was another deeper meaning.

In dangerous situations, one can often see a person’s true nature.

Yue Yao shook her head and said, “You don’t understand. Zhang Yi’s path is different from ours. He will eventually have to go to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land, and there are only benefits to taking Shen Chenyu with him.”

“Oh…” Qingyi nodded incomprehensibly.

“Master, aren’t you worried that he will have trouble?” Qingyi asked again.

Yue Yao involuntarily smiled, her eyes firm, “No one within the Spirit Transformation Realm is his match!”

It was precisely because she knew that the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land did not allow anyone above the Spirit Transformation stage to enter that she sent Zhang Yi there.

“I see. Back then, master also went to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land during her Spirit Transformation realm, and at that time, master was invincible in the same realm. Now Zhang Yi is becoming more and more like you were back then.”

Yue Yao had also been to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land before, but Qingyi didn’t know that Yue Yao had witnessed the darkest side of human nature there and had become ruthless in nature which greatly advanced her cultivation.

Yue Yao stood at the top of the Moon Shadow Peak, quietly watching Zhang Yi’s departing figure, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes as she softly said, “I hope you don’t have to go through what I did back then.”
