I can understand what the furry creatures are saying, and I've become the number one beast tame

Chapter 261 The Methods Commonly Known as Heretical Cultivation

When Nan Shu said things like "If you don't want to" or "Just refuse," there was a clear hint of cheerfulness in her tone.

Like a proud and aloof cat...

Nan Ran's lips twitched slightly, wondering why she always associated Nan Shu with the fluffy creature.

It's so weird.

"Junior Sister Nanran! I mean it!"

Feng Yang was afraid that Nan Ran would refuse outright, so before Nan Ran could speak, he pitifully spoke up for himself.

“If it weren’t for your reminder and guidance in the illusion, I would probably have been buried in the desert and become food for the Yellow-scaled Three-tailed Scorpion long ago.”

"It was thanks to your guidance that I was able to advance two levels in the illusion."

"It is also because of your guidance that I was able to comprehend the water and metal elemental attributes and become a cultivator with five elemental attributes!"

When talking about "five-elemental attribute cultivators", Feng Yang still couldn't suppress his excitement.

"It's fair to say that without my junior sister's guidance, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today! Such a great kindness cannot go unrepaid! Since ancient times, teachers have been those who impart knowledge, instruct in skills, and resolve doubts; I have received such a great favor from my junior sister—"

"So you're going to repay kindness with enmity?" Nan Ran looked Feng Yang up and down.

Feng Yang choked.

He never repays kindness with enmity!

I feel so wronged!
Nan Ran: "I was just talking nonsense. Senior brother's promotion is due to his own ability and has nothing to do with me."

"Senior brother, there's really no need for me to ruin the rest of my life because of my few words of nonsense."

In this era, once you become a disciple, unless you are expelled from the sect, you must work hard and be willing to sacrifice your life for your master.

Even if that master didn't teach any useful skills, but just treated his disciples like cattle and horses.

Those who are disciples must also acknowledge it.

They also had to treat their master like their own mother and serve him well.

If you encounter a master who is heartless, it could be a very exploitative relationship.

As a disciple, one cannot disobey one's master, let alone commit murder or betrayal.

That will get you struck by lightning.

This world... really can be struck by lightning.

They hack people apart until they're charred black and smoking.

Even if they survive by sheer luck, they will suffer the backlash of their inner demons in the future.

Want to avoid being struck by lightning...

We'll probably have to resort to some unorthodox methods.

Commonly known as heretical practices.

Nan Ran was quite aware of her own capabilities.

How can someone who can't even learn basic spiritual skills take on others as apprentices?
"I see."

Feng Yang lowered his head and whispered.

Nan Ran thought he had figured it out.

Then I heard the clear and unequivocal words: "I'm simply not worthy of it!"

"It was my fault for being ungrateful."

"I'm sorry, junior sister."

"excuse me……"

Nan Ran: ...

"No? I really can't teach you anything! I—"

Feng Yang looked very hurt, his eyes filled with dejection: "I know, it's because I'm not talented enough. It's normal that my junior sister looks down on me as her disciple."

Nan Ran: ...

She is actually someone who is very easily morally manipulated.

I can't stand seeing people looking pitiful, so I say things like that.

It was as if she had bullied someone.

then--

"It's good that you know, senior brother."

Nan Ran spoke with a stern face, her words utterly ruthless.

But her tightly clenched fists completely betrayed her true feelings.

She's so mean!
Hopefully, Feng Yang will stop looking at her with those pitiful eyes!

In her past life, she suffered a lot because of her soft heart.

But I just can't change it. Feng Yang: ...

My junior sister's words were so hurtful.

She must really hate him.

so sad.

But now that things have come to this, if he continues to be shameless, he will truly become annoying.

Feng Yang pursed his lips, already prepared to keep this gratitude in his heart.

In his heart, Junior Sister Nanran... no, Nanran! is his master!

My one and only master!
"Since Nanran disagrees, you must not harass her anymore, understand?"

Nan Shu's cold and angry voice suddenly rang out, seemingly a reminder, but more like a warning.

Feng Yang suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, sensing a hostile force behind him.

He took a deep breath and, facing the sect leader's warning, dared not disobey: "Yes, disciple has remembered."

Nan Shu looked at Nan Ran again. Although he was still expressionless and seemed distant, the look in his eyes had softened considerably.

"If he harasses you again in the future, please let me know."

"I will stand up for you!"

Before Nan Ran could say anything, a disdainful "cold sneer" was heard.

Everyone turned around, and Feng Yang finally realized why he had felt a chill down his back.

Jiang Wanyin was standing behind him, holding a knife.

If he had used even a little more force, the knife tip would have pierced his back.

Jiang Wanyin glanced coldly at Nan Shu.

Then he looked at Nanran.

Really... Nan Ran felt that Jiang Wanyin was more like a proud and aloof cat than Nan Shu was at this moment.

They're the kind who awkwardly try to win favor, but are also very concerned about saving face and will never admit it.

Nan Ran's lips twitched slightly.

I really can't understand why she has such a strange feeling.

"You silly girl, you don't even know how to greet the sect leader?" Nan Shu suddenly spoke up.

Nan Ran could tell from his tone that he was deliberately targeting her.

...It even seems like taking advantage?
It's like two people who were originally of the same generation, but one person gets the advantage and is called "great-grandmother" by the other.

Is it an illusion?

Nan Ran glanced at Jiang Wanyin and actually saw a raging fire in her eyes—the kind of anger that comes from being taken advantage of by an enemy who shamelessly takes advantage and then acts innocent, but for some reason, one has to suppress and endure it.

Something's fishy!

These two are so tense, it's really strange!

"I've met the sect master!"

Jiang Wanyin took a deep breath and forced a suitable smile.

“Junior Sister Nanran will be well taken care of by me.”

She gave Feng Yang a cold look: "I will definitely not let any Tom, Dick, or Harry get close."

"Sect Master, please rest assured!"

Feng Ah Mao Ah Gou Yang: ...It seems that his path to becoming an apprentice was not only long, but also quite bumpy.

Nan Shu kept the corners of her mouth in a proper curve and said nothing.

Jiang Wanyin snorted coldly.

Feng Yang, that useless nobody, is nothing to fear. Nan Shu, that big bad wolf, is the one we should be most wary of!
Nan Ran: ...

has a problem!
There is definitely a problem!
But what's even stranger is that Jiang Wanyin's seemingly tense relationship with Nan Shu is because of her.

In fact—not only did he have no desire to get close to her, he seemed to dislike her even more.

What complicated interpersonal relationships!

Before Nan Ran could think it through, the others, following Jiang Wanyin, also successfully escaped from the illusion one after another.

She looked up at the remaining footage.

So far, only Lin Lin remains in the illusion.

and--

At this moment, everyone saw the person fighting against Lin Lin in the illusionary scene she was in.

Everyone stared in shock, their eyes wide.
