Chapter 1521: 354 Chapter_6
The next day, just as dawn broke, Qin Yao appeared outside Cao Zhen’s courtyard, as she had in the past few days. Her crisp voice followed.
“Taoist Xiang, today…”
Before she could finish speaking, the door to the house opened, and Taoist Xiang Ziyu’s voice came: “Fairy Qin Yao, come in, I have some words to share with you.”
“Words to share?” Qin Yao was puzzled but still stepped into the house. Xiang Ziyu waved his hand, closing the door behind them.
He even waved his hand to the side, creating a light curtain with his mana, and then spoke: “Fairy Qin Yao, accompanying me these days, it has been hard on you. Zi Yu has nothing to repay you with, but if Fairy Qin Yao doesn’t mind, I am willing to impart onto you a Yellow Level Mid Grade spell.”
“What?”
Qin Yao was instantly stunned; she hadn’t heard wrong. Did Xiang Ziyu just say he would teach her a spell? And a Yellow Level Mid Grade spell at that?
“Brother Xiang, I didn’t quite catch that, could you repeat it?”
She found her voice trembling a bit. This was a genuine Yellow Grade spell! In her knowledge, their entire Sun and Moon Sect had only one Mid Grade spell!
Cao Zhen had to speak again: “I want to teach you a Yellow Level Mid Grade spell, and one that particularly suits you.”
He sighed inwardly, lamenting how poor the Immortal Sects of the Eastern Wasteland had become. Qin Yao was the most outstanding disciple of the Sun and Moon Sect, yet a single Yellow Level Mid Grade spell got her this excited!
Therefore, it is necessary to impart spells to all Immortal Sects.
Qin Yao finally confirmed she hadn’t misheard. She looked at Xiang Ziyu, seated cross-legged on the meditation mat in the room, momentarily speechless.
Why would Xiang Ziyu teach her a spell?
Just because she accompanied him around the Sun and Moon Sect for three days? If that were the case, she’d gladly accompany him for thirty days, three hundred days, three hundred years—what a bargain!
Xiang Ziyu couldn’t just be sharing a spell because she kept him company for three days. This was a Yellow Level Mid Grade spell!
Could it be that Xiang Ziyu he…
Qin Yao recalled the interim Sect Leader’s hint to her earlier, and her pretty face couldn’t help but blush.
Cao Zhen looked at the charming Qin Yao, inwardly praising her. No wonder she was equally matched in fame with Li Ke; on the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s desirable rankings, Qin Yao was surely a paragon of justice!
As for Qin Yao’s misunderstanding, a misunderstanding it may be.
Qin Yao being so beautiful, this was instead a boon for that brat Xiang Ziyu.
Anyway, it was his disciple, Xiang Ziyu need not thank him.
Suddenly, Qin Yao thought of something again, a bit worried: “But your spell was taught to you by your master, right? It’s a Four Treasures Peak spell, arbitrarily imparting it to me would surely have your master blaming you.”
Cao Zhen looked at Qin Yao’s appearance, secretly nodding in approval. This girl was good; despite hearing about the Yellow Level Mid Grade spell and being very excited, she didn’t immediately say she wanted it. Instead, she showed concern for Xiang Ziyu.
“No issue, my master doesn’t care about these things. My master doesn’t have any profound sectarian views. Besides, it’s just a Yellow Grade spell. My master isn’t too concerned. By the way, this Yellow Level Mid Grade spell is taught to you exclusively; you cannot teach it to others.”
Qin Yao’s face reddened again upon hearing this, still unsure, she asked, “Are you certain? Maybe you should inquire with Sect Leader Cao again?”
“No need to ask. If I say it’s alright, then it’s alright. You don’t know how many spells my master has taught me. Prepare yourself, I’ll impart the spell to you. Oh, later on, I’ll also teach you a Yellow Level Low Grade spell, which you can impart to others in the Sun and Moon Sect.
But make sure, if you impart the spell to others, they must be trusted enough. From my time at your Sun and Moon Sect, I’ve found that some are not wholly devoted to the Sun and Moon Sect.”
The purpose of imparting spells was to strengthen the Sun and Moon Sect, hence Qin Yao was expected to teach the spell to more people.
As for the traitors, after capturing the Sun and Moon Sect in the Prosperous Age Picture Record, he identified problematic ones through it.
At the Hundred Peaks Sect, he found three problematic spots, but at the Sun and Moon Sect, he identified six.
“Traitors!” Upon hearing these words, Qin Yao suddenly no longer cared about the Yellow Grade spells and instead inquired, “Taoist Xiang, how did you discover them? Can you confirm who they are?”
“How I discovered them, I can’t say. It’s a special spell my master taught, a treasured Four Treasures Peak spell. As for those people, I can confirm them; I’ll tell you after I finish imparting the spells.
Additionally, this matter of me discovering traitors, don’t tell anyone, keep it absolutely secret for me!”
Upon hearing this, Qin Yao vowed immediately, “I, Qin Yao, swear to Heaven not to divulge even a word. If I break…”‘
“No need for that, no need for such vows. Alright, I’ll teach you the spells first!”
Cao Zhen quickly taught Qin Yao two spells consecutively.
Due to the spell impartation, he rested for a while before leaving the room with Qin Yao to identify the Sun and Moon Sect’s traitors.
From a distance, the interim Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Sect watched Qin Yao and Xiang Ziyu emerge after a long stay in the room, observing Qin Yao’s affectionate gaze towards Xiang Ziyu, nodding in satisfaction.
Seems promising, perhaps one day the Hundred Peaks Sect will come to the Sun and Moon Sect to propose marriage.
However, isn’t it just a bit too soon?
And, really now, the two of them—couldn’t they wipe the sweat from their brows?
