At the same time, a scene began to play in Ye Liuyun's mind. The person in the scene was Lin Qingyou, who was personally demonstrating the routines of these two techniques.

Well, this set of palm techniques combined with footwork looks very much like a dance, which is very pleasing to the eye. However, Ye Liuyun also knows that any routine must be learned and applied flexibly. If each move and each style were taken out and displayed individually, it would indeed look like a dance.

Because Lin Qingyou transmitted her cultivation insights to Ye Liuyun through her divine sense, Ye Liuyun could see it clearly and knew how to cultivate after just one look.

After completing the transfer of power, Lin Qingyou withdrew her fingers.

"Alright, practice on your own. How far you can go depends on your perseverance. By the way, didn't the Yunxia Sect give you two cultivation manuals? Take a look at them when you have time. It's still necessary to learn the Yunxia Sect's methods, otherwise you'll be suspected later." After saying this, Lin Qingyou returned to the ring.

As for Ye Liuyun, she closed her eyes and began to cultivate in sync with the images in her mind. Only when her body became familiar with the routines and footwork could she be considered to have truly mastered them.

Ye Liuyun was in a deciduous forest. It was very quiet there, with leaves constantly falling all around. Ye Liuyun moved with his mind, practicing each move back and forth, and his speed was getting faster and faster.

The stiff moves became more and more fluid with each repetition, and the footwork became more and more stable.

"Is this what practicing martial arts is like? It feels really good, much more comfortable than sitting and refining medicine all the time." Ye Liuyun went from practicing with his eyes closed to practicing with his eyes open in just three days.

It only took a week to go from being unfamiliar with the technique to fully mastering it, but that only meant mastering the routine. The routine itself is not lethal; the speed and power were completely insufficient.

However, Ye Liuyun knew that mastering the power of martial arts was not something that could be done overnight. When she was in the mortal world, Lin Aoxue forced her to learn martial arts for a period of time.

However, because she had been lazy and her skills were only half-baked, she suddenly regretted not practicing more with Lin Aoxue back then. Of course, during the time she became a woman, she completely gave up practicing because she was afraid of her identity being discovered.

Days passed by in this way. Ye Liuyun rarely returned to his residence. When he was tired from practicing martial arts, he would go back to the alchemy pavilion. When he was tired from alchemy, he would go back to the back mountain to continue practicing martial arts.

This world also has the cycle of four seasons.

Ye Liuyun switched back and forth between alchemy and martial arts practice. Putting aside everything else, Ye Liuyun certainly had perseverance. Whether it was raining or snowing, whether it was cold or hot, Ye Liuyun never missed a day when it was time to practice martial arts. He spent half a month refining medicine and half a month practicing martial arts.

During this time, she thought about going to find Lin Aoxue, but unfortunately, Lin Aoxue was in the inner sect, and she, as an entry disciple, could not enter the inner sect unless Lin Aoxue came out to find her herself.

He was turned away several times, so he had no choice but to temporarily ignore Lin Aoxue and focus on his own things.

However, what Ye Liuyun didn't realize was that as she practiced the "Falling Leaves and Flying Flowers Palm" and the "Floating Cloud Steps" for a long time, her movements became less and less like a man's.

This might be Lin Qingyou's intention, because both of these techniques are feminine and gentle, not the masculine and vigorous methods. With long-term practice, and given that she is now a woman, it would be virtually impossible for her to maintain her masculine appearance.

Unless someone reminds her every day, but unfortunately no one does, and no one finds her strange, because she is a girl with a pure appearance and gentle temperament. Outsiders would never say to her, "Why are you becoming more and more like a woman?"

This is a subtle, gradual change in the body that Ye Liuyun himself is unaware of.

And so, the three years of cultivation life of the new disciple passed by unknowingly. In Ye Liuyun's mind, it seemed like only a few months had passed, not three years at all.

"All disciples who joined the sect three years ago, please assemble at the sect's martial arts arena. The formal disciple entrance examination is about to begin." A majestic voice echoed across the sky above the Yunxia Sect.

Chapter 26: A Blunder

The sect's announcement resounded throughout the entire Yunxia Sect. Don't mistakenly think that the entrance disciple assessment is just a matter of whether the entrance disciples stay or leave.

This is actually very important for the senior disciples as well, because there will definitely be outstanding disciples among the new disciples, and whether these outstanding disciples can replace the senior disciples and become the new seeds of the Yunxia Sect is what the senior disciples care about.

Each initiation disciple assessment is a grand event for the entire sect, a time when new talents replace the old.

Meanwhile, in the deciduous forest where Ye Liuyun was cultivating, a woman of about seventeen or eighteen years old with flowing long hair was seen moving like a ghost through the forest. She dodged all the leaves falling from the trees and finally slammed her palm into a tree trunk that was two feet thick.

The palm strike looked rather weak, and that delicate, fair hand didn't seem to possess much strength.

At that moment, the instant her handprint touched the tree trunk, a powerful burst of energy erupted from her palm, piercing through the tree in an instant.

"Hahaha, oh my! After three years of hard practice, this palm technique has finally reached a minor level of mastery." The gentle-looking girl seemed very happy as she looked at her masterpiece.

The destructive power of this palm strike is so great that it could pierce through a rock, let alone a tree.

"What's there to be proud of? It's just a minor achievement. Also, you should go to the conference. Don't forget this time. If you forget, you'll probably be disqualified." Lin Qingyou reminded her.

Upon hearing this, the girl suddenly remembered that she had just heard the sect's notification.

"Oh yeah? Aoxue should be participating too. I'd like to ask that brat, why hasn't she come to see me for three years?" the girl said, arms crossed and puffing out her cheeks.

After saying that, she disappeared from the spot in an instant and ran towards the sect's martial arts arena.

No need to look anymore, this woman with a gentle temperament, a cool appearance, and a proud figure is Ye Liuyun after she has fully grown up. However, this guy has grown up by three years, but he has not become more heroic. On the contrary, his feminine aura is much stronger than it was three years ago.

There's nothing that can be done about it. Whatever cultivation method you practice, your temperament will gradually change in that direction. In addition, she is also an alchemist, so her personality is becoming more and more gentle.

Looking over at the newly initiated disciples, a graceful woman in white descended from the sky and landed on the mountain where they lived.

Upon seeing the newcomer's attire, the disciples immediately recognized him as a direct disciple of the sect.

"Eh? You are Lin Aoxue, Senior Sister Lin, right?" A disciple who recognized the woman in front of him stepped forward and bowed with a surprised expression.

Indeed, Lin Aoxue has also emerged from seclusion. Although her appearance has not changed much, her temperament has become more reserved compared to her outspokenness three years ago.

A cold and stern air had appeared in her demeanor, because she had cultivated the top-level technique of the Yunxia Sect, "Wind Intent Sword Heart Technique," and embarked on the path of sword cultivation.

"Yes, it's me. Have you seen my sister? She's Ye Liuyu," Lin Aoxue asked.

She came from the martial arts training ground, but didn't see Ye Liuyun there, so she came to her residence to look for her.

However, Ye Liuyun hadn't returned here for almost three years, and the people here had almost forgotten about her.

"Your sister? Oh, I remember now, she's the girl who was punished by the sect back then." Someone finally remembered.

“It’s her. I didn’t see her at the martial arts training ground. Plus, I’ve been confined by my master for the past three years, so I haven’t seen her since,” Lin Aoxue said.

Unfortunately, the other party shook their head.

"I can hardly remember what she looks like anymore, Senior Sister. You don't know this, but after your sister was punished by sweeping the steps, she almost never went back to her residence. Hey, have any of you seen Senior Sister Ye?" the disciple asked the others.

The disciples all shook their heads. They only remembered that there was such a person as Ye Liuyu, but they basically didn't remember what Ye Liuyun looked like now.

Lin Aoxue's expression darkened upon hearing this.

"Eh? Senior Sister Lin, it's you. You must be here for Miss Ye. I'm sorry, she hasn't been back for a long time. I am Xiao Hansheng. I was by Miss Ye's side when you were chasing her on the steps back then." Just then, a handsome young man walked up to Lin Aoxue.

It was Xiao Hansheng.

Lin Aoxue glanced at Xiao Hansheng, then remembered who he was.

"It's you. You said my sister hasn't come back yet?" Lin Aoxue felt a little uneasy.

“I live right next to Miss Ye. If she came back, I would definitely know. But she has never come back. To be precise, she came back once and has never come back since,” Xiao Hansheng explained.

Lin Aoxue grew increasingly anxious as she listened, and then walked to the entrance of Ye Liuyun's cave. Since the stone door could only be opened with the owner's token, Lin Aoxue knew she couldn't open it.

But she was in a hurry and couldn't care less about anything else. A white sword appeared in her hand, and she drew it and slashed at the stone gate several times.

With a few sword strikes, the stone gate shattered in an instant, effortlessly.

The surrounding disciples were utterly dumbfounded; the sword was incredibly fast.

"As expected of a direct disciple, the power of his attack could probably crush all of us beginner disciples," the onlookers exclaimed.

After Ye Liuyun's cave entrance was violently destroyed, Lin Aoxue walked in with a cold face. However, once inside, she found that the cave was covered in a thick layer of dust, and it didn't look like anyone had ever lived there.

"What? What exactly happened?" Lin Aoxue was anxious, and immediately left the cave, taking to the air again to find Yun Yun.

She's gone looking for trouble. At this moment, Yun Yun and the others are sitting in the spectator seats of the martial arts arena, waiting for all the new disciples to arrive before the assessment.

"Hey? Aoxue, Aoxue." Ye Liuyun came down from the back mountain and entered the sect. He saw a familiar figure flying overhead. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Lin Aoxue, so he immediately called out to her.

Lin Aoxue was extremely anxious at the moment and had no mind to pay attention to other people. In addition, Ye Liuyun was a bit far away from her, so she did not hear Ye Liuyun calling her.

"Why is she ignoring me? She must have reached the Spirit River Realm by now, she can fly. Judging from the direction she's coming from, she must have come from my place, right?" Ye Liuyun asked, looking at Lin Aoxue flying towards the martial arts arena.

"Hey? Why does this little girl look so murderous? Hey? Kid, hurry up and get to the training ground, we're in trouble." Lin Qingyou muttered to herself, then realized something.

"Huh? Trouble is coming? What kind of trouble?" Ye Liuyun asked, looking puzzled.

Lin Qingyou really wanted to call Ye Liuyun an idiot.

"You brat, use your brain, will you? Have you ruined your brain from all these years of cultivation? You haven't been back to your residence for years, and those disciples have probably all forgotten about you. If Lin Aoxue goes to look for you, they'll definitely say you haven't been back for a long time, and then what do you think she'll do?" Lin Qingyou asked quickly.

Ye Liuyun was startled upon hearing this, and then used her Floating Cloud Steps to their fullest extent to chase after the dance floor.

The training ground was bustling with activity when suddenly a figure flew rapidly in front of the group of high-ranking officials.

Lin Aoxue's aggressive demeanor clearly indicated something was amiss, leaving Yun Yun and the others puzzled as to what was wrong with her.

Lin Aoxue's mind was filled with unease. She was losing control of her actions because she was worried about what would happen to her if something happened to Ye Liuyun. In this world, Ye Liuyun was her only true family.

Ye Liuyun can be said to be the only one in her life, greater than everything else.

"Aoxue, what's wrong with you?" Yunyun asked, frowning.

"I'm asking you, where did your Yunxia Sect take my sister?" Lin Aoxue asked angrily.

Lin Aoxue's question came so suddenly that everyone present was confused, not knowing what had happened to make Lin Aoxue so angry.

Chapter 27 Timely Prevention

Lin Aoxue's question suddenly silenced the once lively martial arts arena.

It should be noted that this place is where most of the inner disciples and high-ranking members of the Yunxia Sect gather.

For the sect leader's personal disciple to publicly question his master with such a disrespectful attitude is no small matter.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the high platform; they sensed that something big was about to happen.

Lin Aoxue's words stunned Yun Yun, who couldn't understand what Lin Aoxue meant.

"Lin Aoxue, what do you mean by that?" The elders sitting next to Yun Yun frowned deeply, especially the First Elder Yun Ling, who even asked a question in return.

Lin Aoxue was extremely anxious at this moment, and she had been thinking about why Ye Liuyun had disappeared the whole way.

Moreover, she disappeared while being punished, and in the past three years, he had repeatedly asked Yun Yun to see Ye Liuyun, but Yun Yun had refused each time.

Therefore, Lin Aoxue guessed that Ye Liuyun might have been expelled from the Yunxia Sect because of his lack of talent, or that something had happened to Ye Liuyun.

However, neither outcome was acceptable to Lin Aoxue.

Although Yun Yun is her master, Ye Liuyun is the most important person to her in this world, even her parents in this world come second.

After all, everything has its order of arrival, and with memories of her past life, it's difficult for her to fully accept the families in this world.

Yun Yun frowned, looking at her apprentice with a puzzled expression. She didn't understand what was wrong with her apprentice.

"Aoxue, I don't understand what you're saying. Calm down and let's talk this out. Don't embarrass us in front of so many people." Yun Yun didn't lose her temper immediately.

Lin Aoxue glanced around and noticed that all the disciples were staring at her with displeasure.

Lin Aoxue took a deep breath and then explained the matter in detail.

“I went to see my sister today, but the people at her place said that she hasn’t come back since you punished her by making her sweep the steps three years ago. How can you explain that? How can I not be anxious?”

Lin Aoxue's words were understood by Yun Yun. She frowned slightly and then spoke again.

"I understand. Calm down first. I'll send someone to investigate and see what's going on."

But Lin Aoxue was filled with worry at this moment, how could she calm down?

"No, you must give me an explanation immediately!" Lin Aoxue became more and more agitated as she spoke.

Lin Aoxue's repeated verbal insubordination was intolerable to Yun Ling, the Grand Elder in charge of the sect's Enforcement Hall.

"Lin Aoxue, no matter what happened, as a disciple, you shouldn't be so impolite and disrespectful," Yun Ling stood up and shouted angrily.

As he spoke, the disciples under his jurisdiction in the Enforcement Hall began to move.

The hierarchy in this world is very strict, and Lin Aoxue's behavior was indeed a bit excessive.

However, Yun Ling had his own agenda. Although Lin Aoxue's behavior violated the sect rules, it could be a big deal or a small deal. If he could continue to escalate the situation, Lin Aoxue's right to inherit the sect leadership might not be so secure.

In that case, his disciple would have a chance to rise to power.

This is Lin Aoxue's own excuse for causing trouble for others; it can't be said that he deliberately caused trouble.

Because his actions were in accordance with his status.

However, as soon as Yun Ling opened his mouth, Yun Yun scolded him.

"Yun Ling, this is just a misunderstanding. Once we clarify things, everything will be fine," Yun Yun said, staring coldly at Yun Ling.

Upon hearing this, the law enforcement disciples who were about to take action were forced to stop. After all, since the sect leader had spoken, they had to wait.

“Eh? Sect Master, this is against the rules. If Lin Aoxue is not punished, where is the sect's dignity? This is not just a personal matter between you and her. You represent the Yunxia Sect, and your dignity must not be challenged by your disciples.” Yun Ling said seriously again.

Although Yun Ling had his own ulterior motives, as the Grand Elder who upheld the sect rules, he had an obligation to enforce them.

However, just when Lin Aoxue and Yun Yun were in a dilemma, Ye Liuyun finally arrived at the martial arts arena.
