After all the elders had left, only Mo Tianxiao and Nangong Wan remained in the entire grand hall.
"Wan'er, you go back first. I need to go see Master."
Mo Tianxiao looked at Nangong Wan, feeling a bit apprehensive, not knowing what Master wanted him for.
Whenever he thought about facing Master alone, for some reason, he always felt a bit nervous.
Nangong Wan turned her head to look at her senior brother, revealing a faint smile. "Senior Brother, remember to come find me tonight. I have a surprise for you."
"Ah?" Hearing Nangong Wan's words, Mo Tianxiao was momentarily stunned. "What surprise?"
Looking at his junior sister's slightly flushed face and affectionate eyes, Mo Tianxiao could not help but stare blankly. His once aloof junior sister had changed so much over the past two years, becoming this cute without him even realizing it.
"You will know when you come, Senior Brother." Nangong Wan shot him a charming glance from her beautiful eyes before quickly walking away, transforming into a streak of light and departing.
"Could it be... that kind of surprise?"
Mo Tianxiao rubbed his chin, the corners of his mouth rising unconsciously. Thinking of wonderful things, his nervousness about meeting Master alone vanished significantly for a moment.
"Yes, Junior Sister, wait for me. Your senior brother will be right there!"
Snapping back to reality, Mo Tianxiao immediately headed to Master's residence. Once Master finished giving her instructions, he would hurry over to see exactly what wonderful surprise his junior sister had prepared for him.
Before long, Mo Tianxiao arrived at the familiar, magnificent hall. He swallowed hard and walked in cautiously.
Yue Liuli was half-leaning on the luxurious chair on the high platform. She held a jade-colored wine flask in her left hand, taking a sip from time to time. Her white dress perfectly accentuated her graceful curves.
"Master, I am here. What instructions do you have for your disciple?"
Mo Tianxiao stood not far from the main door, asking with a strong sense of sneakiness.
Yue Liuli raised her eyes and sized him up for a moment before her cold voice rang out, "Why are you standing so far away? Are you afraid of me?"
"Everything I have today was given to me by Master. I only have the highest respect and endless gratitude for Master. How could I be afraid of you?"
Mo Tianxiao hastily lowered his head and cupped his hands, making sure to express his stance first.
He was not afraid, just respectful.
"Oh? Then tell me, how do you plan to repay your Master?"
Yue Liuli looked at Mo Tianxiao with great interest, wanting to see what kind of nonsense he could come up with.
"Umm..."
Mo Tianxiao did not know how to answer for a moment and suddenly felt anxious. If he answered poorly, would it upset Master?
She was his biggest backer; he absolutely could not afford to make her angry.
His brain worked at lightning speed. In just a few seconds, Mo Tianxiao felt as if he had undergone a brainstorming session akin to discussing nuclear fusion reactions.
"I will provide for Master in your old age!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Mo Tianxiao instantly regretted it, wishing he could slap himself. How was providing for her old age a form of repayment?
Did Master even need him to provide for her old age?
More accurately, whether he could outlive Master was still a question.
"Uh, I mean I will honor Master and help solve your problems and ease your worries."
"Glib-tongued. I knew you would not be able to come up with anything good." Yue Liuli interrupted Mo Tianxiao's attempt to salvage the situation.
She probably knew this fellow better than she knew herself, especially since he had shown signs of awakening over the past two years, becoming more and more like the person in her memories.
"I called you here this time to remind you to be careful during this period and protect your junior sister's safety.
The news of her obtaining the Great Emperor's inheritance will soon spread throughout the entire continent. When that happens, there will be endless trouble. I cannot guarantee that I will be by your side at all times.
However, you can rest assured about one thing: you will not face any danger while inside the sect."
Hearing Yue Liuli's words, Mo Tianxiao's expression turned serious, and he nodded. "I understand, Master."
The First Elder had said the same thing.
It was fine within the sect, but if they left the sect, Nangong Wan's situation would likely become extremely perilous.
Although he also possessed a Great Emperor's inheritance, besides himself and Master, probably only a few elders knew about it.
But his junior sister was different. Many people knew she had obtained the inheritance. Word would spread from one to ten, and ten to a hundred. It probably would not be long before all the various factions found out.
A Soul Formation cultivator possessing a Great Emperor's inheritance would definitely make people jealous; even Saint Realm experts might covet it.
After all, who could guarantee that this Great Emperor's inheritance would not be suitable for them?
"Master, is there anything else? If not, I will take my leave."
Being alone with Master made Mo Tianxiao feel uncomfortable all over. Moreover, the way Master looked at him was occasionally strange, like a hunter looking at prey, which made him feel an involuntary chill.
"Wait."
Yue Liuli called back Mo Tianxiao, who was trying to slip away. "Tell me, how did you break through from the third stage of the Nascent Soul realm to the peak of the Soul Formation realm in just three months?"
Before heading to the secret realm, she had specifically paid attention to Mo Tianxiao's cultivation level within the hall.
With her realm, she could naturally see through his true cultivation. At that time, it was indeed only at the third stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
And now, after merely three months, his cultivation had skyrocketed to the peak of the Soul Formation realm.
Even Nangong Wan, who possessed an Immortal Bone and had obtained a Great Emperor's inheritance, was not this exaggerated. She was very curious about how her good disciple had actually managed to do it.
"Do not tell me you are naturally gifted. I know exactly what kind of aptitude you have."
Yue Liuli reminded him, gazing at him earnestly.
"Well... this disciple indeed obtained quite a few fortuitous encounters in the secret realm. Coupled with my hard work in cultivation over the years, perhaps it was an accumulation of effort that paid off, and I accidentally broke through this much."
Mo Tianxiao scratched his head, his gaze shifting evasively.
"Is that so?"
A beautiful curve appeared at the corner of Yue Liuli's mouth. She waved her hand lightly, and Mo Tianxiao's body flew toward her uncontrollably.
"Smack!"
Before Mo Tianxiao could react, he found himself sitting on Yue Liuli. Looking at his Master, who was now close at hand, a fragrance invaded his nose and instantly spread throughout his body, seemingly flowing into his limbs and bones, giving him a feeling of floating on air.
His body completely stiffened, not daring to move an inch.
"Ma-Master?"
Yue Liuli reached out her slender jade-like hand and rested it on Mo Tianxiao's shoulder. Her fair fingers traced across his neck before pulling downwards.
Mo Tianxiao's entire body was practically pressed against hers.
The two were face to face, barely a palm's width apart.
"Tianxiao, when you lie, your eyes unconsciously look down to the left. Did you know that?" Yue Liuli stared into his eyes, her breath smelling like orchids.
"Is... is that so?"
Mo Tianxiao hurriedly averted his gaze, not daring to meet her eyes. Yue Liuli's current behavior made him feel somewhat afraid.
Could it be that she had already discovered he was not the original Mo Tianxiao at all?
Impossible. Shouldn't the system have taken care of this sort of thing?
"See? Just like right now. Why do you not dare to look into my eyes?"
Yue Liuli's hand slowly moved up, caressing Mo Tianxiao's cheek and turning his face to look directly at her.
"Answer my question honestly, or else Master will have a punishment for you"
As she spoke, a flash of scarlet crossed Yue Liuli's originally clear eyes.
