My Disciple are all Dou God

"Teacher's Wife?"

Hearing Gu He's words, Yun Yun was momentarily stunned. A faint blush immediately spread across her delicate face as she replied in a flustered tone, "Gu He, please don't joke like this."

Gu He met her gaze with unwavering seriousness. "I'm not joking, Sect Master. Do you dare to accept this bet?"

Seeing his solemn expression, Yun Yun's heart wavered slightly.

She lowered her head, her usual grace and composure momentarily lost. At this moment, she found herself at a loss for words.

Memories of Gu He appearing at the critical moment last night to save her flashed through her mind.

For a brief moment, her heart felt numb.

Noticing her silence, a flicker of disappointment passed through Gu He's eyes.

'Perhaps I was too hasty.'

To lighten the mood, he smiled and began, "Since the Sect Master is unwilling, then I'll change—"

"Wait!" Before he could finish, Yun Yun suddenly raised her head, her gaze firm as she declared, "Gu He, I accept your bet!"

Gu He was taken aback. Staring at her resolute expression, the corners of his lips curled slightly as he replied, "Then it's settled!"

Yun Yun also smiled, her beautiful eyes brimming with warmth and tenderness.

"However," Yun Yun added, a sudden thought crossing her mind, "if you wish to take Yanran as your disciple, she must agree to it herself."

Nalan Yanran had always been strong-willed and despised being forced into anything.

If she refused to acknowledge Gu He as her teacher, even Yun Yun could do nothing about it.

Moreover, Yun Yun had no intention of pressuring her beloved disciple.

Gu He nodded in understanding. "Naturally, I'll make sure she willingly accepts me as her teacher."

He was utterly confident in this.

'Just a young girl—how hard could it be?'

Gu He still remembered the envy in Nalan Yanran's eyes when he had bestowed treasures upon the Little Fairy Doctor back then.

With a few dou techniques and some guidance, he was certain he could win her over effortlessly.

Yun Yun smiled faintly. "Since you're so confident, that's for the best."

"But…"

After a brief hesitation, she continued, "If you truly wishes to become Yanran's teacher, then I'll leave the matter of the Purple Spirit Crystal to you."

"Purple Spirit Crystal?" Gu He raised an eyebrow before extending his palm, where a shimmering purple crystal suddenly materialized.

"Are you referring to this?" he asked with a faint smile.

Yun Yun stared blankly at the crystal in his hand, surprise flashing in her eyes. "How… how do you already have the Purple Spirit Crystal?"

Gu He chuckled mysteriously. "Sect Master, take a guess—where do you think we are right now?"

Yun Yun's gaze instinctively swept across the cave. When she noticed the countless purple crystals embedded in the walls, realization dawned upon her.

"This… this is the lair of the Amethyst Winged Lion King!"

Gu He nodded. "Correct. This is indeed its den. And I've already claimed the Purple Spirit Crystal."

Yun Yun finally understood.

If Gu He had already slain the Amethyst Winged Lion King, occupying its lair was only natural.

As the ruler of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, the lion king's cave would undoubtedly hold treasures.

Had she possessed the strength to kill it, she too would have searched the place thoroughly.

After a moment's thought, Yun Yun retrieved a simple scroll from her storage ring and handed it to Gu He.

"Gu He, since you've obtained the Purple Spirit Crystal, I'll entrust the refinement of the Amethyst Pill (Purple Spirit Pill) to you as well."

Originally, she had planned to provide the materials for Gu He to refine the pill. Now, she simply handed him the formula directly.

Gu He glanced at the scroll, accepted it with a nod, and replied, "Understood."

"Rest well for now. Once you've recovered, I'll help you undo the seal," he reassured her before rising to his feet.

…

Misty Cloud Sect – Gu He's Residence

The courtyard was silent, devoid of any sound.

"Mmm…" A soft murmur sounded from within a room.

On the bed, the Little Fairy Doctor's eyelids fluttered as she slowly awoke.

A trace of black powder lingered on her pink lips, standing out starkly.

As the haze in her mind cleared, memories of her consuming poison the previous night rushed back.

Her gaze swept across the room, taking in the lingering black mist in the air. Without hesitation, she began circulating her dou qi, activating her poison-absorbing dou technique.

Her hands moved in a series of intricate seals.

As she formed each hand sign, the black mist in the room surged toward her as if summoned, swiftly being absorbed into her body.

Before long, the thick black dou qi had completely vanished.

Within her body, at the center of her Dou Qi cyclone, a black pill hovered silently.

Threads of black dou qi flowed through the cyclone before merging seamlessly into the pill.

Once the last wisp of energy was absorbed, the Little Fairy Doctor ceased her movements and slowly opened her eyes.

Rising from the bed, she focused inward, assessing her cultivation.

A satisfied smile soon graced her lips.

"Eight-Star Dou Master!"

She had truly broken through.

'If teacher knew, he would undoubtedly be overjoyed.' But as thoughts of Gu He surfaced, her elation dimmed slightly.

Her teacher had been gone for over ten days now.

She wondered when he would return.

Then, she recalled his words before leaving—he had left a reward for her in his room, to be claimed once she reached the Eight-Star Dou Master.

'What could it be?'

With a spark of anticipation, she made her way to Gu He's chamber.

…

Gu He's Room

The moment she stepped inside, three objects on the table caught her eye—two jade bottles and a set of blue soft armor.

"Is this teacher's reward for me?" Curiosity gleaming in her eyes, Little Fairy Doctor approached and examined them closely.

A small note was attached to each item.

Picking up the one on the blue armor, she read its contents:

"Frostheart Armor – Inlaid with multiple rank 5 ice-attribute magic cores. Its defensive power is extraordinary, capable of withstanding a single strike from a Dou Emperor powerhouse."

Understanding dawned—these notes described each item's purpose.

"Teacher is so thoughtful…" A delighted smile bloomed as she picked up the armor. The moment it touched her skin, a refreshing chill spread through her fingertips, making her adore it instantly.

"Frostheart Armor… A rank 5 magic-core armor…" The details replayed in her mind, and her heart swelled with gratitude.

'Teacher treats me so well!'

With this armor, her safety during future travels would be greatly assured.

After admiring it for a moment, she carefully stored it in her ring.

Her gaze then shifted to the two jade bottles.

Selecting one at random, she read its note:

"Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill – A peak fourth-tier pill. Upon consumption, it elevates a Dou Grandmaster's cultivation by one star."

"A pill that boosts cultivation!"

Though it was tailored for Dou Grandmaster, she wasn't disappointed.

Given her current progress, reaching the Dou Grandmaster Realm wouldn't take long.

"Teacher has prepared everything for me in advance…" A sweet warmth filled her heart as she stored the pill away.

Finally, Little Fairy Doctor picked up the last jade bottle and read its inscription:

"Soul-Tempering Pill– A peak fifth-tier pill. Enhances soul power slightly upon consumption."

"A pill that strengthens the soul?!"

Shock flickered across her face.

Gu He had once explained the significance of soul power—a mysterious force intrinsic to life itself.

Generally, soul power only grew marginally with each cultivation breakthrough.

For a pill to enhance it directly was nothing short of miraculous!

Though the boost was minor, its value rivaled even sixth-tier pills—especially to alchemists, who prized soul power above all else.

"Teacher even gave me something this precious…" Holding the bottle tenderly, she felt a surge of determination.

With this pill, advancing to a third-tier alchemist would be within reach!

…

Amethyst Winged Lion King's Lair

As Gu He meditated, a series of system notifications suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Ding! Detected that the host has bestowed the fifth-tier magic-core soft armor Frostheart Armor upon the second disciple, Little Fairy Doctor.]
