Wear A Book And Hug Your Apprentice’S Thigh Tightly Chapter 2
byChapter 2 The Immortal Sect’s Head Disciple
Li Yuan looked speechlessly at this woman who, despite being a teacher, was so childish.
However, she was quite easy to appease.
Just as Chun Yu finished speaking, she suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
Li Yuan instinctively wanted to steady her, but her incorporeal soul passed right through Chun Yu’s body. Fortunately, Chun Yu managed to steady herself.
Li Yuan asked, “Teacher Chun, what’s wrong?”
Chun Yu frowned, holding her forehead. “It seems… I’m recalling some things about this original body.”
The original owner was named Chang Yu, the Head Disciple of the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect, and the disciple who most admired and supported the Sect Leader. She held a position of honor in the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect, second only to the Sect Leader. However, she had deep animosity toward her Second Junior Sister, Chang Le, who was also the master’s most favored disciple.
The two frequently engaged in open and secret struggles, constantly at loggerheads, reaching a point of life-and-death rivalry.
Chang Yu lost her life this time because she was caught off guard and fatally poisoned by Chang Le.
Chun Yu looked up and cried out: Why are there annoying colleagues everywhere!
Chun Yu spoke earnestly to Li Yuan: “It seems the original owner was a bit weak, but your teacher here is an unkillable, beautiful, and fiery powerhouse. Just stick with me. With my abilities, I can definitely help you find your body!”
Chun Yu quickly accepted her new identity.
Li Yuan felt she was unreliable. “Never mind, let’s part ways here, Master and disciple. Please be careful in the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect.”
Li Yuan finished speaking and floated away.
“Don’t go… Did she really leave?”
Chun Yu looked at the empty surroundings. Fine, children grow up and have their own paths to follow. Since they were in the same world, they would meet again someday.
Chun Yu also turned and headed toward the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect.
Before dark, Chun Yu finally crossed a mountain peak. Standing halfway up the slope, she raised her hand and looked at a large palace in the distance. Just as Li Yuan had described, six large, dazzling golden characters were carved on the plaque above the gate: Vast Brilliance First Immortal Sect.
The Immortal Sect was not built on the ground, but rather suspended in the clouds halfway up the mountain, surrounded by swirling immortal energy and auspicious clouds, looking magnificent. Chun Yu couldn’t help but sigh deeply. So this was the world of cultivation—it was simply too fantastical!
And her cheap new identity was the Head Disciple of the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect. A profit, a huge profit!
Chun Yu was dreaming of summoning wind and rain, but seeing the disciples outside the sect flying on swords, she suddenly deflated… because she had forgotten one very important thing—
Although she had inherited Chang Yu’s memories and could feel the abundant spiritual energy surging within her body—energy that allowed her to climb a mountain without even panting—if she had this power in her previous life, she would definitely have beaten that ugly pig Chen flat!
But then again, she had never cultivated. She didn’t know any of the various spells. She would definitely expose herself once she returned to the mountain gate.
Chun Yu immediately sat down halfway up the mountain. She decided it was better to practice the original owner’s cultivation methods until she was proficient before going back.
“A-hey, hey, hey!” Chun Yu closed her eyes, gesturing with her hands while silently reciting the spell incantations, even adding sound effects to her movements.
She was attempting the Piercing Strike Art, aimed at a rock not far away. But after several attempts, the rock remained completely unmoved.
Chun Yu looked at her hands worriedly. “What’s going on? Why can’t I cast it?”
“Of course you can’t cast it.”
“Oh my!”
Hearing a voice in the darkness startled Chun Yu, but she quickly recognized the familiar voice as Li Yuan’s.
She said, “Li Yuan? Didn’t you leave? Why are you back?”
Li Yuan gritted her teeth. She wanted to know that too! It was bad enough that she had transmigrated without a body, and when she tried to go find a body on her own, she found she couldn’t leave Chun Yu.
She didn’t know why, but as soon as she moved too far away from Chun Yu, her soul would begin to dissipate. She could only return to Chun Yu’s side.
She had tried repeatedly and confirmed that she was indeed unable to leave Chun Yu.
Li Yuan smiled. “After thinking about it, you are the only person I know in this world, Teacher. It’s better for a student to follow her teacher. I believe you will definitely help me find my body.”
“Of course I will.” Chun Yu said, “I have very high professional ethics and standards. You can rest assured by my side. I won’t abandon you.”
Chun Yu then recalled Li Yuan’s earlier words. “Why did you just say I definitely couldn’t cast the spell?”
Li Yuan explained, “Because you must first believe that you are already a person of this world. Only then will this body recognize you as its master. If you yourself still can’t believe you’ve arrived in another world, you naturally won’t be able to cast spells.”
Chun Yu nodded. “I understand. I need to believe I can control this body.”
Li Yuan said, “Exactly, Teacher Chun. Try again now.”
Chun Yu clenched her jaw, her expression serious as she looked at the rock again. She closed her eyes and once more attempted the Piercing Strike Art.
With a loud bang, an explosion sounded. This time, she hit it.
“The power is actually this great!” Chun Yu looked excitedly at her hands, so happy she nearly jumped up and down.
The cultivation world was truly wonderful!
Chun Yu was now brimming with confidence.
“Then I’m going back to the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect now.” Chun Yu declared.
Li Yuan suddenly stammered, “Wait, Teacher Chun, there’s something I think I should tell you.”
Chun Yu asked, “What is it?”
Li Yuan said, “I’m starting to remember why the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect feels so familiar… ‘It’ seems to be a novel I casually wrote when I was in elementary school.”
“You wrote novels in elementary school? How talented!” Chun Yu praised.
“That’s not the point,” Li Yuan stated directly. “The Vast Brilliance First Immortal Sect, named the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect, is the immortal faction that protects the people of the Vast Eternity Continent. This world has six paths of reincarnation: Gods, Immortals, Humans, Demons, Fiends, and the Underworld. The Human race and the Demon/Fiend races have deep-seated grievances, fighting ceaselessly for thousands of years. The current Sect Leader of the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect, Wan Qianqian, has vowed to eliminate the Demon race.”
Chun Yu finally realized that since the author was right beside her, couldn’t she know the entire story’s direction, get effective spoilers, and just coast to victory?
Chun Yu eagerly asked, “So, so, so who is the female protagonist? Is she the type with a thick, powerful protagonist halo?”
Li Yuan said, “…I forgot. I only remember that the female protagonist should be Wan Qianqian, the Sect Leader of the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect. As for the protagonist halo… that kind of character setting wasn’t popular when I was a child.”
Chun Yu stroked her chin, analyzing. “It’s fine, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember. I think, given your elementary school mindset, even if she wasn’t a powerful protagonist, the female lead must have been someone you greatly admired. Judging by Student Li Yuan’s current character, that female protagonist, my Master, she must be noble, great, and righteous! Following her is definitely the right choice!”
Hearing someone praise herself like this, Li Yuan touched her nose guiltily. “That might not be true. My childhood abstractness is something even I can’t bear to look at.”
“What did you say?” Chun Yu was too engrossed in her analysis to pay attention.
Li Yuan said, “Never mind. Anyway, you are now a disciple of Vast Brilliance, so you can only seek refuge with Wan Qianqian for now.”
Chun Yu pointed grandly toward Vast Brilliance. “Disciple, follow your Master closely! I shall now lead you onto the path of cultivation!”
Chun Yu executed the Sword Flight Art. Standing on the sword, she flew gracefully into the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect like an immortal.
The dozens of guarding disciples immediately bowed respectfully. “Head Disciple.”
Chun Yu suppressed the corners of her mouth and nodded coolly.
This was amazing! Having high seniority was truly amazing! Who could understand this feeling!
Chun Yu gradually recalled more details about the original owner.
The Sect Leader had dispatched her and the disciples down the mountain not for leisure, but to welcome some members of the Demon race into the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect.
This task was originally entrusted to her, but unexpectedly, an accident occurred midway. A cunning snake demon bit her, and she was poisoned, causing many of the Demon race members to escape. Fortunately, Chang Le arrived just in time to intercept them. Although many demons were recaptured, some still managed to flee.
Even if she survived this time, she would likely be reprimanded by the Sect Leader for incompetence.
Chun Yu felt indignant. Since she started working, she had always been diligent and hardworking, completing even the most arduous tasks. The original Chang Yu’s style was quite similar to hers.
Moreover, Chang Yu and Chang Le had no prior grudges; in fact, Chang Le was practically raised by Chang Yu. But she didn’t know when, Chang Le started constantly finding ways to frame and slander Chang Yu.
It seemed Chang Le was determined to remove her from the Sect Leader’s side so she could take her place.
The Front Main Hall of Vast Brilliance was brightly lit.
Since I’m here, I’ll make the best of it. Chun Yu comforted herself and walked into the Vast Brilliance Hall.
Seated on the main dais was an imposing woman, dressed in white and gold robes. Her high-piled hair was adorned with luxurious golden hairpins, and a golden snake-patterned totem marked her forehead. Her sharply defined, chiseled face spoke of her dominant personality. Her eyes were clear black and white, and nothing escaped her sharp phoenix eyes.
“Chang Yu greets the Sect Leader.”
Chang Le, seeing Chang Yu walk to her side and kneel in the hall, flashed a look of shock in her eyes.
Chun Yu finished speaking, raised her head, and cast a provocative glance at Chang Le.
“What is going on? Didn’t Chang Le say you were missing?” the woman on the dais asked coldly.
Her voice was cold and deep, as if imbued with spiritual power, making it extremely penetrating.
Li Yuan looked at the woman, her hands trembling slightly. Even she felt fear.
Even though that face was only eighty percent similar to her mother’s, she was terrified.
Chun Yu replied, “Reporting to the Sect Leader, this disciple was not missing. I was merely severely injured during a confrontation with a snake demon. However, I fear someone might have wished me missing.”
Chun Yu’s implication was obvious.
Chang Le immediately knelt down and said, “Sect Leader, this disciple would never dare to deceive you. When I led people to meet Senior Sister, I did indeed see her fighting the snake demon. Afterward, Senior Sister disappeared without a trace. This disciple personally led people to search, and the accompanying disciples can all testify.”
Chun Yu looked at Chang Le. She was lying. Chang Le had indeed led people to find her, and she was the one who found her, but instead of saving her, she delivered the final blow and killed her.
Chun Yu wanted to say more, but Wan Qianqian waved her hand.
“Enough. I do not wish to see discord arise among fellow disciples. If the two of you argue again, both of you will go to the Rear Mountain to be punished.”
Chang Yu and Chang Le said, “Sect Leader, please calm your anger. This disciple knows her mistake.”
Wan Qianqian continued, “Chang Yu was ineffective in her duty and should be punished. However, the most urgent matter now is to recapture the escaped demons. Otherwise, their cruel nature will bring disaster upon the people of the Vast Brilliance Nation.”
Hearing the words “cruel nature of the demons,” Li Yuan noticed that the darkness in Chang Le’s eyes deepened.
Chun Yu said, “Yes, Sect Leader. This disciple will lead people into the city tomorrow to capture the demons. I will ensure that not a single escaped demon is left behind.”
Chang Le said, “Chang Le is willing to cooperate with Senior Sister to capture the demons.”
Chun Yu thought that Chang Le’s desire to accompany her surely meant ill intent.
She said, “They are only a few minor demons. Why would we need to deploy both of the Sect Leader’s top disciples? I can go alone.”
Chang Le countered, “But Senior Sister is injured and likely low on energy. If we fail to capture all the demons this time, the common people will question the abilities of our Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect disciples. How will Senior Sister recover her reputation then?”
It was a blatant provocation, a clear attempt at goading. Chun Yu knew it, but the original owner’s identity was that of the highly regarded Head Disciple. This task was assigned by the Sect Leader as a chance for atonement. The arrow was on the string; she had to accept it, and she had to succeed.
Chun Yu said, “If this disciple fails to capture the demons this time, then I am incompetent. I will voluntarily resign my position and sweep the floor in the Rear Mountain from now on.”
