Wear A Book And Hug Your Apprentice’S Thigh Tightly Chapter 3
byThe Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect is divided into four main areas: the Front Main Hall, which is the Sect Leader’s residence; the Rear West Hall, where the disciples reside; the Rear East Hall, which is for guests; and the Forbidden Area of the Rear Mountain.
Chun Yu left the Front Main Hall and followed her memory back to her room in the Rear West Hall to change clothes.
Li Yuan naturally followed her.
Once in the room, Chun Yu began to undress. She untied her sash and quickly removed her outer robe.
Li Yuan immediately turned around upon realizing what was happening and reminded her, “…Teacher Chun, did you forget I’m still here?”
Chun Yu replied casually, “I know. We’re both girls, what’s there to be shy about?”
Li Yuan was speechless.
Chun Yu quickly finished changing and sat down at the table, pouring herself a cup of tea. She surveyed the room’s interior and said with satisfaction, “This is really nice, much bigger than my dorm.”
“Oh, right.” Chun Yu waved her hand in the air and said, “Li Yuan, are you still there?”
Li Yuan replied, “Sitting right next to you.”
Chun Yu said, “Do you remember what you wrote in your novel? That way we can know what will happen in the future, and if there will be any danger.”
Li Yuan said, “Danger is certain. After all, the Immortals, Demons, and Fiends in this world are antagonistic. But I wrote that when I was very young. I really don’t remember everything that happened.”
“Alright. But you were quite unique when you were in elementary school. Everyone else wrote about their parents or going on trips. Why did you write such a dangerous fantasy novel?”
Chun Yu smiled at the air, her tone neither mocking nor surprised, only showing the gentle concern of a teacher for a student.
Li Yuan said, “I wanted to be like the other kids, but my parents divorced when I was very young. I was awarded to my mother. My father paid child support every month, and it was a substantial amount, completely enough for my mother and me to live on.”
Chun Yu didn’t know about Li Yuan’s childhood. She had originally thought Li Yuan’s parents divorced when she was in elementary school, which was why she wrote the novel out of boredom. She hadn’t expected them to have divorced when she was so young.
She thought that in that case, Li Yuan must have been under a lot of pressure as a child, and might have been bullied by other children. No wonder she didn’t make friends with the students in her class.
“Then what kind of people are your father and mother?”
“My dad is tall, rich, and handsome, and there were always many women around him. My mom became the special one because she was pregnant with me, so she married my dad. She fantasized that after marriage, my dad would settle down and only have eyes for her and the family. Unfortunately, she was wrong. My dad was never a settled man. She divorced him in a fit of rage, but she also loved him very much and quickly regretted it.”
“But she is also a strong-willed person. She always thought that if one day she could reach the same height as my dad and stand as his equal, she wouldn’t be afraid of those women around him anymore.”
“Then she started her own business, working desperately. During this time, my dad successively had sons and daughters with other women, pretty much completely forgetting about her…”
Li Yuan suddenly paused, then continued, “My mom is a woman who lives in her own world. She always delusionally tried to change my dad, but never succeeded. In fact, my dad wanted to see her less and less, and eventually just took me back to the Li family.”
Chun Yu was silent after hearing this, then asked, “Do you love your father more or your mother more?”
Li Yuan answered quickly, “I don’t love either of them. I love myself the most.”
Chun Yu smiled and nodded. “Yes, love yourself well.”
“I have a social media platform,” Chun Yu said, starting to talk about herself with Li Yuan. “I often post some parenting advice there.”
Li Yuan asked in confusion, “Do you have children?”
Chun Yu smiled sheepishly. “I don’t have children yet. I just feel that the way most parents educate their children nowadays is wrong, which is why I post parenting articles. Think about it, we were children once, right? Parents are the child’s first guardians and first educators. Through their influence, children will inherit many of their traits, both good and bad.”
“But I find that many parents completely lack self-control and self-education abilities, and then they start educating their children based on their own meager experience. If they fail to educate them well, they even blame society, teachers, schools, or others. They haven’t even given the child the most basic love, yet they start demanding this and that from the child. The result is naturally negative, baffling, and frustrating.”
Chun Yu said, “I think before parents have children, they must answer at least one question: What exactly is a child?”
Li Yuan laughed. “Teacher Chun’s ideal is a bit too distant.”
Chun Yu also smiled helplessly. “It is. That’s why unhappy families and unhappy children will not decrease.”
Li Yuan said, “But those things belong to another society, Teacher Chun. You should go to sleep early. Tomorrow, you need to think carefully about how to catch all those escaped demons. Everyone is watching you.”
Chun Yu yawned. “I am terribly sleepy.”
She walked to the couch. “Student Li, do you prefer sleeping on the inside or the outside?”
Li Yuan had never shared a bed with anyone, and she was currently just a soul body, so she answered without thinking, “Teacher Chun, please rest well. I can just float.”
Chun Yu said, “How can that be? Even a soul needs a resting place. Student Li, wherever your teacher is, half of that resting place belongs to you.”
Even a soul… needs a resting place…
For the first time, Li Yuan felt a sense that perhaps she didn’t need to drift aimlessly anymore.
The conversation that night deepened Chun Yu and Li Yuan’s understanding of each other considerably. Although they hadn’t met many times before, the two, being teacher and student, quickly grew familiar. Moreover, in this world, they were the only two who had transmigrated together, so they naturally felt closer to each other than to anyone else.
Early the next morning, Chun Yu gathered several dozen disciples, preparing to set off.
“Greetings to His Highness Qixiu, Greetings to Her Highness Wuyu.”
The disciples suddenly looked behind Chun Yu and bowed.
Chun Yu turned around. Two people in brocade robes, a man and a woman, walked over from the Rear East Hall. The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was stunningly beautiful.
Chun Yu quietly asked Li Yuan, “What are their identities?”
Li Yuan said, “I forgot.”
Chun Yu sighed. Well, she would have to rely on her own memory.
Fortunately, the original host had a deep memory of these two. She quickly recalled them. The man was named Wan Qixiu, and the woman was named Wan Wuyu. They were the First Prince and First Princess of the Vast Eternity Kingdom.
Their relationship with the Sect Leader, Wan Qianqian, was also extraordinary.
This was because Wan Qianqian was once the First Princess of the Vast Eternity Kingdom, and the current Empress of the Vast Eternity Kingdom was Wan Qianqian’s younger sister, Wan Luoluo.
Therefore, these two were also relatives of the Sect Leader and usually cultivated at the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect.
Chun Yu quickly followed local custom and bowed.
Wan Wuyu walked over, her expression haughty. “I heard that Senior Sister is taking disciples to capture demons today?”
This Wan Wuyu used to make trouble for the original host whenever she had the chance, but because she was a relative of the Sect Leader, the original host could only tolerate her.
Chun Yu thought: I hate these people with connections.
Alas, she couldn’t do anything about it either.
Chun Yu said good-naturedly, “That’s right. We are about to set off to prevent the demons from harming the common people.”
Wan Qixiu said, “Wuyu, let Senior Sister and the others hurry up.”
Wan Qixiu was the heir to the Vast Eternity Kingdom, and he was usually gentle.
Wan Wuyu, however, did not move her feet.
“Senior Sister is right. If we let demons harm the people of our Vast Eternity Kingdom, how can I, a princess, feel at ease? I want to go with Senior Sister to capture the demons.”
Wan Qixiu looked at Wan Wuyu in confusion. His sister was always arrogant, especially at odds with Senior Sister Chang Yu. Why would she want to help Senior Sister Chang Yu capture demons this time?
Chun Yu was also puzzled. This First Princess’s cultivation wasn’t particularly high, and she was accustomed to a life of luxury. When had she ever done tiring work like demon-catching? What exactly did she want?
Li Yuan whispered in Chun Yu’s ear, “Be careful of her. Last night, I saw Chang Le go to Wan Wuyu. Chang Le was stirring up trouble between you and Wan Wuyu, saying you intend to compete with her for the position of Sect Leader.”
Chun Yu understood. So Wan Wuyu’s intention to join her in catching demons was fake; her real goal was to sabotage her. Tsk tsk tsk, the little girl is being naughty.
However… Chun Yu whispered, “How do you know that? Didn’t you sleep last night?”
Li Yuan said, “I couldn’t sleep, so I wandered around to see if I could remember more things.”
Chun Yu immediately felt a little ashamed. As a teacher, she was able to sleep soundly in this environment, yet she wasn’t as vigilant as her student. She vowed not to let that happen again.
Chun Yu said, “Alright, with the Princess joining us, we will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort.”
She couldn’t refuse Wan Wuyu, otherwise, given Wan Wuyu’s temperament, she would still go to the Sect Leader for permission. Chun Yu could only be careful herself.
Several streaks of white light flew out of the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect.
Chun Yu quickly located a place guided by the Demon Seeking Compass. It turned out to be right inside the Imperial Palace of the Vast Eternity Kingdom.
Chun Yu and the disciples stood outside the magnificent Imperial Palace.
Wan Wuyu snapped, “Nonsense! The Imperial Palace is heavily guarded. How could a demon possibly be in the Imperial Palace? Chang Yu, what is the meaning of this? Are you suggesting that the Imperial Palace is hiding demons?”
Chun Yu quickly waved her hands, pointing to the Demon Seeking Compass. “I didn’t say that. The Demon Seeking Compass is pointing this way.”
Wan Wuyu said, “What guidance? I think you are clearly unskilled and can’t even use a compass properly. What do you intend to do now? Do you want to search the Imperial Palace?”
Chun Yu said, “Since the Demon Seeking Compass points to the Imperial Palace, I think we should first report to the Empress.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a female official walked out of the Imperial Palace.
The official approached the group and said, “Her Majesty learned that you are conversing at the palace gate and invites you all inside to discuss the matter.”
Wan Wuyu looked at Chun Yu with an expression of anticipation. “You’ve alarmed my Imperial Mother. Let’s see how you explain this.”
Wan Qixiu said, “Senior Sister, there’s no need to worry. Since the compass guided you here, just tell Imperial Mother the truth. She is always reasonable.”
Chun Yu said, “I have also heard that Her Majesty the Empress is always discerning and governs the country well. I believe she will judge accordingly.”
Wan Wuyu unhappily slapped Wan Qixiu. “Imperial Brother! Why are you speaking up for her!”
Wan Qixiu said, “It is our duty to find the escaped demons as quickly as possible. Don’t be ridiculous.”
Wan Wuyu glared at Chun Yu several times.
Chun Yu followed the female official into the main hall of the Imperial Palace.
On the throne sat a woman wearing a bright yellow brocade robe and a crown, looking dignified and imposing, radiating authority without anger.
The Empress and the Sect Leader were full sisters, and they looked quite similar. However, Chun Yu felt that although the Empress was also majestic, she was slightly gentler than the Sect Leader’s severity.
She and the disciples bowed. “Greetings to Her Majesty the Empress.”
Wan Luoluo said, “Rise, Chang Yu. Why have you brought your disciples to the Imperial Palace?”
Chun Yu was about to answer, but Wan Wuyu snatched the words from her.
“Imperial Mother, she is unskilled. Yesterday, she allowed the demon race to escape, and today, she somehow manipulated the Demon Seeking Compass, insisting that the demon is hidden in the Imperial Palace.”
Wan Luoluo said, “Although my cultivation is not as high as my sister’s, I can still sense if a demon has entered the Imperial Palace grounds. There are no demons hiding in the Imperial Palace.”
Wan Wuyu looked at Chun Yu as if watching a show. “My Imperial Mother says there are no demons in the Imperial Palace. Do you still not believe it?”
The disciples immediately exchanged glances.
Chun Yu also found it very strange. She took out the Demon Seeking Compass and said, “But the compass truly points to the Imperial Palace…”
Chun Yu looked down at the compass, and her expression instantly changed dramatically.
The Demon Seeking Compass was no longer pointing to the Imperial Palace, but to another direction.
Wan Wuyu immediately pointed at the compass and said, “Senior Sister Chang Yu, is it your lack of skill or a problem with your eyes? Where does this compass point to the Imperial Palace?”
Chun Yu frowned in confusion. The disciples were whispering, and panic rose in her heart.
Could it be that she truly failed to control the Demon Seeking Compass properly for a moment?
Oh no, this was a huge embarrassment. Not only did she disturb the Empress, but her credibility among the disciples must have plummeted. How would she, the Senior Disciple, face anyone in the Vast Brilliance Immortal Sect in the future?
