Cultivation Online-Novel

"Xuan Wuhan... What’s her relationship with Disciple Yuan, really?" Fei Yuyan mumbled to herself as she entered her bed to sleep, but alas, it took her another hour to fall asleep again, mostly because she kept wondering about Xuan Wuhan and Yuan’s relationship.

As for Xuan Wuhan, she reluctantly left the area, but she did not return to her own house. Instead, she went to bother Elder Xuan, her grandfather.

"Heavens... What did I just witness?" Min Li covered her mouth in shock after eavesdropping on Xuan Wuhan and Fei Yuyan’s small argument. This is the first time she’s ever heard of two Core Disciples arguing with each other over an Outer Court disciple.

’It’s fine... Even though I may be at a disadvantage in terms of our disciple status, I will sooner or later become a Core Disciple, and I am also from one of the Seven Legacy Families! Furthermore, my appearance isn’t worse than theirs— at least I don’t think I am losing in that aspect!’ Min Li thought to herself, trying to convince herself that she wasn’t losing to Xuan Wuhan and Fei Yuyan, as they are clearly also trying to secure a place in Yuan’s heart.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Yuan peacefully cultivated for the rest of the night, completely oblivious to the small drama that had occurred at his house between two top beauties in the Dragon Essence Temple.

Once morning came and Yu Rou returned to his room and finished her daily routine, Yuan returned to the game.

"Hm? She’s still sleeping?" Yuan raised his eyebrows when he didn’t see Fei Yuyan in the living room, as he’d expected her to be awake by now.

’Maybe she’d pushed herself too hard during yesterday’s practice...’ Yuan thought to himself.

*Knock* *Knock*

Somebody knocked on the door a few seconds after Yuan took a seat in the living room to wait for Fei Yuyan.

’Who could be here so early in the morning?’ Yuan wondered to himself as he went to open the door.

"Hello, Disciple Yuan."

A familiar face greeted him at the door.

"Disciple Min? What’s the matter?" Yuan asked her.

"Nothing important. I heard you playing the zither yesterday, and I just wanted to listen to it more clearly. Do you mind if I watch you play the zither today?" Min Li asked him whilst trying her best to not blush.

However, to Min Li’s surprise, Yuan apologized to her, "Did our practice bother you yesterday? I hope it didn’t disturb your cultivation, and I am really sorry if it did... And you could’ve at least let me know if it did..."

"Uhhh..." Min Li was slightly speechless.

Most buildings in the Dragon Essence Temple are enforced with formations that block sound from leaving or entering the house so that one wouldn’t be able to disturb others during their cultivation or vice versa, so there was no way that Min Li could’ve heard Yuan playing the zither no matter how loud he played it.

"D-Don’t worry about it, I really enjoyed it, or else I would’ve knocked on your door sooner." Min Li responded in a stiff voice a moment later.

Yuan nodded afterward and said, "I’m relieved. And you’re definitely welcomed to watch us practice the zither today."

"Thank you, Disciple Yuan." Min Li said to him, pretending as though their recent conversation had never happened.

*Knock* *Knock*

And just as Min Li took a seat in the living room, the door was knocked on again.

"Who could it be this time?" Yuan raised his eyebrows, wondering why there were so many guests today.

"Hello, Yuan! It’s been a while!" Xuan Wuhan greeted Yuan at the door this time.

"Xuan Wuhan!" Yuan was pleasantly surprised to see her face.

"What are you doing here?" Yuan asked her.

"What do you mean by that, Yuan? Am I, a fellow disciple of the sect, not supposed to be here?" Xuan Wuhan asked him.

Seeing Yuan’s speechless face, Xuan Wuhan smiled and said, "I’m joking with you, Yuan. Anyway, I have heard about the zither competition and how you’re going to participate in it with Disciple Fei, and I would like to watch you practice. After all, you’ll need some audience to judge your performance, right?"

Hearing her words, Yuan nodded, "That makes sense. Although Disciple Fei hasn’t woken up yet, please, come inside."

"She’s still sleeping? What a lazy girl..." Xuan Wuhan took this opportunity to smear some dirt on Fei Yuyan’s image.

Xuan Wuhan entered the building a moment later.

However, to her surprise, there was already another individual inside the living room.

"Y-You... Aren’t you Min Li from the Seven Legacies Family? What are you doing here?" Xuan Wuhan looked at Min Li with wide eyes.

"I... I am here to listen to their practice." Min Li said.

"You? Don’t you have better things to do as a member of the Seven Legacy Families?" Xuan Wuhan raised her eyebrows, and she stared at Min Li with a suspicious gaze.

"What does belonging to the Seven Legacy Families have anything to do with this?" Min Li responded calmly. Even though she was before a Core Disciple, she wasn’t feeling scared or nervous like most disciples would be if they were in her shoes right now.

"..."

Xuan Wuhan was speechless, mostly because she had nothing good to say.

Sometime later, Xuan Wuhan said to Yuan, "If Disciple Fei doesn’t wake up soon, I’ll go knock on her door."

However, Yuan shook his head and said, "There’s no need to wake her up. She practiced for many hours yesterday so she’s definitely very tired."

"Then what about your practice?"

"I can still practice by myself. Let’s go outside to the backyard so that we don’t disturb Disciple Fei." Yuan suggested.

Xuan Wuhan nodded, and she followed Yuan outside with Min Li following behind her.

Once they were outside, Yuan sat behind the zither and prepared to play it.

Xuan Wuhan and Min Li swallowed nervously, feeling somewhat anxious to see Yuan play the zither for some reason.
