Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 521 This Path Requires Rigor
Unlike Chu Muyin's shock, Bai Yaosha's expression remained largely unchanged, and she immediately began to study the newly repaired array pattern.

Why is she so calm?
Doesn't she know what this means?!
No, the only possibility is that she had long been accustomed to Qin Yu's behavior.

However, even though the ancient array patterns have been repaired, they are still quite difficult to comprehend.

A moment later, the spiritual energy on the array patterns dissipated, and Bai Yaosha habitually turned around to look at Qin Yu, seemingly not used to him not coming to help her.

However, upon seeing Chu Muyin, he immediately turned away.

What does she mean?
Chu Muyin was speechless. Did she think I was in the way?

What, did I interfere with the Bai family's good deed?

Soon, Bai Yaosha cleared her mind of distractions and entered a state of meditation once again.

"Your Highness is also interested in these remnants of the army?"

Qin Yu deliberately changed the subject and asked.

"The Bai family's ancient formation is incredibly profound. If one can comprehend even a fraction of it, one will surely benefit immensely."

Chu Muyin nodded, not denying it.

The remnant formation of Xiaoyao Pavilion was left behind by ancient sages, and its mysteries are extraordinary.

Most of the array masters from the various immortal kingdoms have studied at the Xiaoyao Pavilion, but unfortunately, apart from the Emperor of Qin, no master has been able to fully comprehend an ancient array when faced with its incomplete structure.

While comprehending one or two of the array patterns can indeed be very beneficial, if one immerses oneself in this path for a long time without being able to comprehend the complete array, it may instead leave the comprehender with an obsession.

In more serious cases, like Bai Yaosha's obsession, their spiritual power may forever remain at the level of the preliminary stage, unable to make any further progress.

This is why those array masters, at most, spend a few years on incomplete arrays before choosing to give up.

After all, they knew that even if they spent their entire lives repairing a few more array patterns, there was no need to pour their life's blood into this.

In fact, within the ancient Bai family, there was a group of array masters who were deeply versed in this art.

"Your Highness may give it a try."

Qin Yu gestured.

The ancient remnant formation, under the Heavenly Eye, has no basis in the word "remnant".

Chu Muyin was somewhat tempted.

If she could fully comprehend a few array patterns, perhaps her spiritual power could break through completely and transform into the subtlest level.

"Unfortunately, I don't have that much time to ponder it."

Chu Muyin hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and sighed softly.

She had already tried with her master's help, but it would take one or two months to comprehend even a repaired array pattern. She hadn't forgotten the purpose of her trip; if she were completely absorbed in this path, how could she win over Master Qin?
Qin Yu did not try to persuade her further.

Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither is an iron pestle ground into a needle in a day.

She is a princess of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, so naturally she wouldn't be as obsessed with array formations as her sister-in-law.

"Om..."

At that moment, a strange, undulating wave surged forth.

Bai Yaosha's delicate body trembled slightly, and she involuntarily took a half step back.

Qin Yu instinctively helped her up. What was wrong with her sister-in-law today? Was she mentally unstable?
"Entering the advanced stage, without the assistance of a master, you dare to forcibly comprehend the ancient formation?"

Chu Muyin sighed inwardly. The Bai family was truly inhuman; they didn't care about the safety of their clansmen at all, just to attract people with their beauty.

In her view, immersing oneself in this path without even reaching the subtle level of spiritual attainment would be entirely detrimental.

What Chu Muyin didn't know was that Bai Yaosha's spiritual power had only recently reached the mid-level of the fine stage. It was only after comprehending a few array patterns that she was able to break through to the high stage.

Supported by Qin Yu, Bai Yaosha's body tensed up, feeling somewhat shy, after all, there were outsiders present.

"Stay calm and don't think about anything else."

Qin Yu reminded her in a low voice.

Immediately, disregarding the fact that Chu Muyin was still behind him, he released a burst of spiritual energy to begin guiding her.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yaosha relaxed a bit and, guided by Qin Yu's spiritual power, began to comprehend the array patterns.

Perhaps out of habit, her graceful body unconsciously leaned back slightly.

Chu Muyin watched as the two were completely pressed together, her beautiful eyes widening slightly.

Judging from their interactions, they are clearly not a couple!

However, this contact...

They're clearly completely hooked!

Why would she be so proactive? Does she think I'm invisible?

Soon, Chu Muyin's gaze was drawn to the array patterns, and in a short while, the array patterns were completely imprinted.

Then, Qin Yu patiently pulled the fish a second time...

In just about fifteen minutes, Qin Yu stopped using his mental power to guide her, but he did not withdraw to prevent his sister-in-law from becoming distracted.

Under Chu Muyin's shocked gaze, Bai Yaosha began to draw array patterns alone. At first, she seemed a little unfamiliar with them, but the flow of spiritual energy was very natural and there was no sense of obscurity.

"Om..."

With the final stroke, a complete array pattern was drawn.

"You've grasped it already?"

Chu Muyin's mouth gaped slightly, her face filled with disbelief.

She clearly sensed that the other person's spiritual power, though at the same advanced level, was inferior to her own.

As a result, he actually comprehended the newly perfected array pattern in such a short time?

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she simply wouldn't have believed it was real.

Bai Yaosha was completely immersed in comprehending the formation, and then, the second time...

Unlike her initial awkwardness, this time her mental movements were more skillful and took less time.

Qin Yu only withdrew after Bai Yaosha completed the third time on her own. Bai Yaosha's delicate body trembled slightly, as if a void had appeared in her heart, and she snapped out of her trance-like state of deep contemplation.

"Have you... already comprehended this array pattern?"

Chu Muyin swallowed hard and couldn't help but ask.

Bai Yaosha was initially a little embarrassed, but when the array patterns were mentioned, her expression immediately became natural, and she nodded confidently.

"How come it's so fast?"

Chu Muyin was still somewhat incredulous.

Back in the capital of the Great Chu, her master had once used his spiritual power to guide her in comprehending array patterns. However, it took her several days to comprehend a single ancient array pattern that had been repaired.

"Fast?"

Bai Yaosha didn't think so.

Moreover, Qin Yu once said that speed is nothing special; the key is to persevere.

Chu Muyin couldn't help but look at Qin Yu. Could it be because of Master Qin that this woman from the Bai family was able to comprehend the array patterns so quickly?
"Your Highness, would you like to give it a try?"

Qin Yu felt that she shouldn't show favoritism and gestured to them.

Chu Muyin was initially hesitant, but faced with the allure of the ancient formation, she finally decided to give it a try.

If I can quickly comprehend the array patterns, my mental strength might soon take the final step and achieve the Microscopic Realm!

Bai Yaosha smiled faintly and voluntarily moved aside.

"Thank you."

Chu Muyin glanced at the other person and noticed that the other person was sweating because they were too tired from comprehending the array patterns, as the other person's clothes were somewhat clingy.

Of course, she didn't think too much about it. Comprehending the array patterns was mentally taxing, so sweating was no big deal.

"Om..."

Chu Muyin gently placed her palm on the array stone, calmed her mind, and released her spiritual power, which flowed slowly according to the patterns she had seen several times before.

However, the profound mystery of the ancient array patterns and the variations contained within them are far more complex than they appear on the surface.

In just a few breaths, Chu Muyin's mental energy slowed down, and she was unsure how to continue.

"Bah!"

A moment later, the array patterns flickered and then dissipated as a burst of fluorescence.

Chu Muyin frowned slightly, determined to try again.

This time, she tried her best to recall the patterns of the array, and was even more careful.

However, unsurprisingly, almost nothing changed from the last time, not even the time was much different, and his mental energy collapsed again.

Chu Muyin felt a flush of heat on her cheeks.

Could it be that my talent in this field is inferior to that of a Bai family woman whose spiritual power is below mine?

"Qin Yu, go and help her."

Bai Yaosha didn't tease her; instead, she spoke up.

Without Qin Yu's help, she wouldn't have been able to comprehend a single array pattern so quickly.

"this?"

Qin Yu hesitated.

He can guide Chu Muyin without physical contact.

If this happens, wouldn't the sister-in-law see through the ruse? Then the misunderstanding will only deepen, and how can things continue in the future?

However, if there is physical contact...

The other party was Princess of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom. Although they had met twice, they hadn't had much interaction.

Such behavior is too presumptuous and clearly inappropriate.

Qin Yu didn't want the Chu Emperor to come all the way to the capital of the Great Yan Dynasty to demand an explanation from her. What would the Empress think of her then?
"Thank you for your trouble, Master Qin."

Chu Muyin took a deep breath, feeling somewhat helpless.

If she spent a few days, she might indeed be able to comprehend the array pattern through her own efforts. However, after witnessing Bai Yaosha's speed, she clearly wanted to take a shortcut.

"Your Highness, please forgive me."

Seeing this, Qin Yu couldn't refuse, so she could only step forward and murmur.

"offend?"

Chu Muyin was initially puzzled, but the next moment she felt her wrist being gripped by a large hand.

The strange touch sent shivers down her spine.

Master Qin, why is this?!
To draw spiritual power, does it necessarily require such close contact?
"you……"

Chu Muyin's heart trembled, and before she could speak, a wisp of spiritual energy surged out.

"Don't speak, follow me."

Before Qin Yu could savor the sensation from the palm of his hand, she gave a soft shout, interrupting him.

If we let her tell us, wouldn't we expose the truth?

Bai Yaosha, standing to the side, was puzzled. Could one comprehend the array patterns this way?
The movements are all wrong!

Sure enough, even with Qin Yu's guidance, before the array patterns were even halfway complete, Chu Muyin's mental power had already dissipated.

"Feel sorry."

Chu Muyin felt extremely ashamed. She had never had physical intimacy with a man before, and the sensation on her wrist made it impossible for her to calm down.

"It's not right for you to do this."

Bai Yaosha shook her head, sighed softly, and said.

The art of formations requires meticulousness!
