Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

"Nice to meet you."

"Let's go, I'll take you to a place to rest," Ji Yun said.

After a moment.

As the group approached their lodgings, Zhang Chulan, unable to contain his curiosity, asked:

"Um...Masters, there's something I'm really curious about. Why is Junior Uncle Zhang Lingyu so rude to me and Brother Liu?"

"It feels like I owe him eight million."

"I used to think he was just naturally aloof and out of touch with people, but after we got up the mountain, wow, he's all smiles with everyone else, but with me and Brother Liu, he has such a sour face."

"It feels like they're targeting us."

Hearing Zhang Chulan's question, Ji Yun and Ye Xing, who were leading the way, paused for a moment, exchanged glances, and then Ye Xing spoke first:

"Indeed... Junior Uncle is usually a very nice person, so why is he not so nice to these two young brothers? Is it because of the Celestial Master's special favor towards Brother Chu Lan that Junior Uncle is unhappy?"

"As for what's going on between the charming young man and Junior Uncle... I really don't know, but judging from Junior Uncle's emotional outburst last time... maybe the two of them have a personal grudge."

As Ye Xing spoke, he looked at Zhou Fengliu, and Zhang Chulan and the others also looked over.

"Brother Liu... tell me?"

"?"

Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Fengliu scratched his head: "You all really want to know?"

"Kind of."

"This is someone else's past... I have to keep quiet about it."

Zhou Fengliu said that although he had told the Celestial Master about this, the Celestial Master was, after all, his master.

"Giving a little hint... shouldn't be a problem, right? Brother Liu, I believe the two Taoist priests are absolutely tight-lipped!" Zhang Chulan was determined to get to the bottom of this story today.

“Ah, right, right, right.” Ji Yunye and Xing, who also loved gossip, nodded in agreement. They had been curious about the relationship between Zhou Fengliu, an outsider, and their junior uncle, but they dared not ask.

Seeing that everyone wanted to know, Zhou Fengliu thought for a moment, then took out his "Far Ahead" phone from his pocket and opened the payment code.

"..." Everyone present remained silent.

Paid content, huh?

Zhang Chulan reacted quickly enough, taking out his phone and scanning a "66" with Zhou Fengliu.

"Brother Liu, listen for a moment."

Zhou Fengliu nodded. The paid content was naturally all the best. Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly with their ears perked up, he then spoke:

"Actually, it's nothing... It's just related to Yin Five Thunders. You two Taoist priests should understand when you hear these three words, right?"

"..."

Yin Wu Lei?

Upon hearing these three words, Ji Yun's expression changed drastically, as if he had understood something.

"Could this matter... possibly have something to do with that playboy... wait a minute."

Ji Yun understood.

He felt he had connected the dots.

"I see..."

"No... you two Taoist masters, what have you realized? Tell me!" Zhang Chulan was completely bewildered, like a badger who couldn't find a melon in a melon patch.

He is in a hurry.

Very urgent!

Chapter 57 The Old Celestial Master is Going to Spy?! (Third Update!)

"This... involves some of the Celestial Master's Mansion's thunder magic, and I can only reveal a little about thunder magic."

Ji Yun slowly began to speak:

"The thunder magic of the Celestial Master's Mansion can only be taught to promising disciples by the Celestial Master. Only half of the complete thunder magic can be taught. The complete Five Thunder Orthodox Method can only be learned by the disciple when he formally inherits the Celestial Master's mantle."

"The cultivation of this half of the Thunder Technique is also very demanding. One of the conditions is that the cultivator must remain a virgin. It is because of this demanding condition that many exceptionally talented disciples are unable to cultivate the Thunder Technique."

"So the predecessors modified that half of the thunder technique, so that people who have already lost their virginity can also cultivate thunder techniques. This is the Yin Five Thunder Technique."

"There is also a completely unmodified half, which is Yang Wu Lei..."

Since Ji Yun had not seen Zhang Chulan use lightning magic before, he did not look in Zhang Chulan's direction, but casually added Yang Wu Lei.

What was said unintentionally was taken seriously by the listener. Zhang Chulan, who possessed the Yang Five Thunder Technique, was completely bewildered at the moment.

Yin Wu Lei... Zhang Lingyu.

Doesn't this mean...?

Junior Uncle is no longer a novice?

The fact that Zhang Lingyu was not a virgin was not a particularly deep secret within the Celestial Master's Mansion. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that Zhang Lingyu had lost his virginity just by using Yin Five Thunder.

What they were more curious about was... who took Zhang Lingyu's virginity.

After briefly explaining the Five Thunder Technique, Ji Yun couldn't help but swallow hard as he looked at Zhou Fengliu in front of him.

If this young man can say that, then he must know the inside story... or rather, he must have witnessed it firsthand...

That's why Junior Uncle...

Having thought this through, Ji Yun dared not ask any further questions.

"Now you know what's going on, right? Your Uncle Lingyu is targeting me so much, probably to silence me," Zhou Fengliu whispered after seeing that Ji Yun had figured it out.

"You two Taoist priests must protect me well... He might launch a night attack... to ambush this young man in his twenties..."

"No, absolutely not, Junior Uncle isn't the kind of person who plays dirty tricks!" Ji Yun patted his chest and assured him.

At the same time, the upright and honest junior uncle mentioned by Ji Yun was summoned to the room by the old celestial master.

Looking at his own disciple, the old master didn't beat around the bush.

"Tell me about it."

"?"

Hearing the old master say this, Zhang Lingyu frowned slightly. He thought about it carefully and realized that he hadn't made any mistakes recently.

"This disciple does not know what Master is talking about."

"Don't play dumb, about your affair with Zhou Fengliu." The old master pointed at Zhang Lingyu.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingyu's expression changed.

"this..."

Seeing Zhang Lingyu's hesitation, the old Celestial Master said, "Since you've already done it, what's there to be ashamed of saying it?"

"Master..." Zhang Lingyu still found it difficult to speak.

"Still not going to tell me? If you don't tell me now, it's different from what I'll tell you later. I can learn something from Zhou Fengliu." The old master said slowly.

Hearing this, Zhang Lingyu sighed. He knew that his attitude towards Zhou Fengliu could not be hidden from his master.

Under the watchful eye of the old master, he gritted his teeth and told the old master everything that had happened back then.

“Can’t everyone just say that? What’s so difficult about it?” the old master said.

“Disciple…I always feel that this experience was unbearable, and I am ashamed of my identity as a disciple of the Celestial Master…” Zhang Lingyu said as he knelt on the ground, looking as if he had done something wrong.

"What's done is done... You've already learned the Yin Five Thunder Techniques, what else can't you face?" The old celestial master shook his head.

His apprentice's biggest problem is that he lives too conflicted a life and can't face the past. So he can only move forward with a heavy burden, like walking through a quagmire where every step is more difficult than for others.

"Disciple realizes his mistake."

"Do you...hate him?" the old master asked.

"I wouldn't say I hate you," Zhang Lingyu said frankly upon hearing this.

"This disciple understands that what happened back then had little to do with him; it was this disciple who fell into the Quanxing ambush... that led to all of this."

"But why do I still have such a strong attachment to him...? Perhaps it's because my mental cultivation is insufficient..."

Listening to Zhang Lingyu's words, the old Celestial Master summarized it as: "Unable to accept his own mistakes, he blames others in order to alleviate his guilt about his so-called identity as a Celestial Master's disciple."

"master..."

Zhang Lingyu lowered his head even further at this moment.

"You believe that as a disciple of the Celestial Master, you must be perfect and without fault... You can't accept your tainted past, and you can't accept who you are now, right?"

The old celestial master readily tore away Zhang Lingyu's fig leaf.

He had never inquired about how Zhang Lingyu lost her virginity before, but now he had to give some pointers to this disciple who was struggling to move on.

"Master...this disciple was wrong."

"Go back and rest," the old master ordered.
