Unfilial disciple, do not ruin your master's dream of ascension and peaceful life.

That night, Ye Yinqiu trained to her heart's content, experiencing both pain and pleasure. Her sportswear was soaked with sweat and had a sweet and sour fragrance... but that's not true, it was just the ordinary smell of sweat.

Qian Jing was almost back to the state he was in when he was instructing disciples in the Cangxuan Realm. He hated working overtime like a beast of burden, but to be honest... when it comes to teaching people, he didn't actually hate it.

A good apprentice listens attentively to his master's teachings and is therefore rewarded, especially since he is in a rare good mood.

Back at the rented apartment, Qianmo was still taking a shower. The master and apprentice went to the living room to put down their things (mainly a large pile of teaching materials that Ye Yinqiu had brought).

"Xiao Qiu, give me your phone."

"OK!"

"Wow, you've installed WeChat, QQ, Douyin, Kuaishou, Xiaohongshu, Weibo, Toutiao, NetEase Cloud Music on this? Fine, take a look if you want, just be careful not to get high blood pressure from all that stuff."

"??"

"You'll understand after watching for a while... Okay, I've linked your Alipay family card to your account, so you can use my card directly from now on."

"What do you mean?"

"That means my money is your money, you can spend it however you want."

"How could I possibly accept that?!"

"Isn't it only right that the sect provides food, lodging, and daily expenses? I'll also get you memberships for these apps; it's just a small amount of money."

"thank you……"

Although she had vaguely sensed it before, she was only now certain: Could her master be very rich?

In his hometown, it was only natural that Venerable Qianjing was wealthy, or rather, money meant nothing to him.

On Earth, however, Master lived a near-secluded life in a cramped house, which gave him the impression that he was always short of money.

But in reality, he was incredibly extravagant with money. When he took her shopping, he never looked at the prices and could pull out endless amounts of money from his pockets and wallet, as if he could conjure it out of thin air.

"I have as much money as you need. Just name your price, as long as it's not a single huge transaction that might attract the bank's attention."

He even made such a bold statement!

However, seeing that her master was financially well-off, she breathed a sigh of relief, after all...

(Sister Qinxue is extremely extravagant, and Sister Jiuyuan is just like that. If my master and I are short of money, I'm afraid we really won't be able to handle it.)

She was thinking this when she was about to say it to Qianjing—

"Hey bro! How many times have I told you, remember to turn the water back to hot after you shower! Just because you like cold showers doesn't mean I do!"

Qianmo poked her head out of the bathroom and angrily waved her little fist at Qianjing.

"It's your own fault for not checking before boiling the water, it has nothing to do with me!"

Qianjing retorted without hesitation. It was a heartwarming scene of siblings bickering all the time.

Seeing Qianjing and Qianmo bickering, Ye Yinqiu stopped talking for a while, but after a while she blushed with embarrassment because of the question, "Will I have to sleep in the same bed with Master again tonight?" and completely forgot what she was going to say.

At that moment, she had no idea what the future held.

……

……

The night is deep.

Time to sleep.

After taking a shower, Ye Yinqiu changed into the pajamas she had bought while shopping earlier. The thin material outlined her curves, which rose and fell like an electrocardiogram. She hugged her chest shyly and took small steps into Qianjing's room.

Then I saw that the room was divided into two halves by a wall that appeared out of nowhere.

"I did this while you were showering," Qianjing explained. "I divided the room and the bed in half, one half for you and one half for me. This wall in the middle not only protects our privacy but also provides excellent sound insulation, preventing us from disturbing each other."

"………………………………"

Ye Yinqiu's restless heart instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, limp and slumped down.

"Master, you're so clueless..."

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing!"

Ye Yinqiu rarely acted so sullenly. She puffed out her cheeks and walked into her half of the room. Qianjing had already piled all her things there, making it very crowded. Hopefully, it would be enough for her.

She sighed softly, lay down on the bed, and wrapped herself in the blanket.

Seeing that her apprentice had gone to sleep, Qianjing quickly shrank to her own half of the room (so cramped that there was no room to stand), and after confirming that the walls were soundproof and lightproof, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Great.

In this way, no matter what he does here, his foolish apprentice won't notice.

After all, he also has things he wants to do.

This is the one thing that absolutely must not be discovered by her.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting~~~ VTuber Momozuki-chan, who descended from the celestial realm to save all living beings, is finally streaming~~! Today, I'm continuing to grind the Wildlands DLC! I got wrecked by the invincible, enhanced Kushala Daora yesterday, so I'm determined to get my revenge today! Watch my dual-wielding reign!"

--------

Just a stone's throw away, on the other side of the wall, Ye Yinqiu lay on the bed, pouting, unable to sleep.

The soundproof wall looked flimsy, but it was actually very effective; she couldn't hear a single sound from her master.

She was a little annoyed. Her master was willing to sleep with her yesterday, so why did his attitude change today?

Why?

"This thing is called Baidu Search. You can ask it anything you want to know—but remember not to click GG."

—That's what her classmates told her during the day.

She recalled her entire day of studying, and how she had tried several times using the so-called "bad dog pinyin input method" before finally succeeding in typing text into the search bar:

"'What is a man on Earth who locks himself in a room at night?'... Type... and then click... uh... this arrow?"

With a click, the webpage redirects, and rows of search results appear before your eyes.

"How...how do you pronounce these? Uh...sheng, li, ceng, mian, de, zi, wo, shi, fang? zheng, que, ren, shi, nan, ren, ye, wan, de, zi, wo, an...an...how do you pronounce..."

Suddenly she remembered that her classmates had told her that most mobile browsers nowadays have a "read-to-speech" function to make it easier for the elderly or visually impaired to use. She remembered pressing...here?

Ye Yinqiu pressed a button, and the phone automatically read out all the search results.

She was stunned by reality.

Then you gradually come to understand.

Then her face became increasingly red.

His facial features became increasingly distorted.

Steam was practically rising from the top of my head.

I almost screamed at the end.

Before the phone could finish reading, she quickly turned it off, stuffed it into the crack of the bed like a bomb, and tossed and turned in the blankets.

(So, right now, Master is... is... so close to me... right... right... oh my god!)

That night, Ye Yinqiu tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
