Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 172 Long Yeyue: Back then, as your teacher, how could I not love you...

"Hehe, junior brother, haven't you already met him? Why are you still shy?"

Tang Yinmeng seemed unconcerned, chuckling as she stood up and lazily stretched her waist, making her graceful curves even more prominent.

She raised her delicate eyebrows, smiled as she looked at Jiang Yi, who was looking down behind her, and lightly tapped her chin with her fingertips.

"Or... do you really have other feelings for your senior sister?"

"Ahem, Senior Sister is joking."

Jiang Yi coughed lightly, still keeping his head down.

This somewhat tempting scene only made his already active blood and energy even more restless.

He secretly circulated his qi and blood vortex to barely suppress the strange heat.

He still has to maintain the image of an innocent junior brother in front of his senior sister.

Do not look at what is improper! Do not look at what is improper!
"Forget it! I won't tease you anymore!"

Tang Yinmeng shook her head and chuckled, a playful look on her face.

She lightly lifted the elegant long dress that was placed to the side with her toes, spread her arms, and gently draped it over herself, covering the boundless spring scenery that made people's blood boil.

When she arrived in front of Jiang Yi, she had already dressed up and transformed back into the aloof and ethereal senior sister of the inner courtyard.

"Come on! Let's go inside with Senior Sister!"

Tang Yinmeng suppressed her smile, her tone returned to normal, and she reached out to take his hand.

Jiang Yi felt a warm touch in his palm and let her lead him to the attic.

However, looking at his senior sister in front of him, a hint of suspicion arose in his heart. Something seemed a little off...

Although Tang Yinmeng usually took extra care of him, it was out of affection for him as a younger brother.

Just now... why did he feel like his senior sister was intentionally or unintentionally teasing him?
Hmm, why does this feel strangely familiar?
Jiang Yi scratched his head, feeling like he was in a second playthrough.

However, Tang Yinmeng, who was walking ahead, seemed to be walking slowly and naturally, but at this moment, her cool and pretty face was already flushed.

Teacher, I can't do it...

Soon, the two went up to the attic.

The attic is not large, only about two and a half stories high, and the overall decoration is mostly in the ancient style, leaning towards simplicity and elegance.

"Please sit down for a while, your senior sister will be back soon."

Tang Yinmeng pressed Jiang Yi down into a chair in the living room, speaking calmly, before turning and walking towards the bedroom.

"Okay, senior sister."

Jiang Yi nodded in agreement, his gaze casually sweeping over the surroundings.

Suddenly, his gaze paused on the wooden table beside him.

There was a set of celadon tea set there, with an antique style, but there was a noticeable empty space in it, making the whole set look incomplete.

"Hmm? One's missing, this doesn't seem like Senior Sister..."

Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat surprised.

He and Tang Yinmeng had fought side by side outside for several months, and they understood each other well.

Tang Yinmeng is a perfectionist, so how could she tolerate this situation?
This isn't really her style; maybe she just didn't have time to change it...

He narrowed his eyes, then turned his head and looked at the bedroom next door.

It seems a little too quiet.

……

Inside the bedroom.

Tang Yinmeng bit her red lips, knelt on the ground, tears welling in her eyes, and pleaded again.

"Master, why must you force your disciple to do this..."

Junior brother, he is already a student of Shrek Academy, and according to Junior Sister Shen, he even had a confidante in his first year.

Even without mentioning the deceased Mu Zi, what she did was still unfair to her junior brother!

If her junior brother trusts her, his senior sister, so much, and does something like this, how will she ever face him again?
"He is the disciple of the deputy sect leader of the Tang Sect. If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely return to the Tang Sect in the future... Although Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect are said to be one, there are still differences between them!"

"This kid is of great importance to Shrek Academy! We absolutely cannot let him go to someone else!"

Long Yeyue responded to Tang Yinmeng's pleas with almost heartless indifference.

"Girl, I know this is making things difficult for you!"

She took a deep breath, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes, and reached out to gently stroke her disciple's face.

"The academy has nurtured you for many years and poured countless efforts into you. Now that it needs you to make some sacrifices for the academy, can't you... understand that?"

"Back then, how could I not love you too..." Long Yeyue raised her head, and tears welled up in her cloudy eyes.

She once made a vow of eternal love with someone, but in the end, she still became the mistress of the pavilion master.

Decades have passed in the blink of an eye, and life has gone on just the same way.

"I don't have many years left to live... Now I only hope you can find a good home, someone to take care of you, someone to rely on..."

Long Yeyue's voice was filled with sorrow as she gently pulled Tang Yinmeng into her arms, stroking her back with her hand, her tone full of an elder's love and expectations.

“Jiang Yi is a top choice in terms of both talent and temperament. If you could be with him… it would be the best choice for you and for the academy…”

"teacher……"

Feeling the sorrow and care in her teacher's words, Tang Yinmeng felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and countless images of being carefully taught by her teacher flashed through her mind.

She closed her eyes in pain, her delicate body trembling slightly. Finally, as if all her strength had been drained, she collapsed to the ground, tears streaming silently down her face.

"I promise you." She knelt on the ground, her voice hoarse and almost inaudible, "But... please give me some time to prepare... okay?"

Looking at Tang Yinmeng, who was silently shedding tears, Long Yeyue felt a hint of relief in her eyes. This was her good disciple.

Shrek's glory is above all else!
For the future of the academy, personal feelings and sacrifices are all worthwhile.

……

The bedroom door opened gently, and Tang Yinmeng had changed her clothes. A gentle smile returned to her face, and her expression was completely normal.

"Junior brother, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

She walked out with light steps, brewed another cup of hot tea, and brought it to Jiang Yi.

"Did you encounter any difficulties when you came to see your senior sister this time?"

"No! I just came to see my senior sister!"

Jiang Yi took the teacup, his fingertips inadvertently touching her fingers, only to find them icy cold.

He took a small sip of tea and smiled at Tang Yinmeng.

"Furthermore, I made some discoveries in the library a few days ago and would like to discuss them with my senior sister..."

"Okay, then let your senior sister see if you've made any progress lately!"

Tang Yinmeng nodded happily, her gaze softening as she looked at the young man in front of her.

"No problem! I've mastered quite a few unique skills; I'll show them to you, Senior Sister, later..."

Jiang Yi had an excited look on his face.

Looking at her junior brother in front of her, Tang Yinmeng felt a pang of pain in her heart at his unwavering trust in her.

Her small hands, hidden in her sleeves, clenched tightly together. A struggle flashed in her eyes, but it eventually vanished.

I'm sorry, junior brother... just think of your senior sister as a bad person!
"Shall we go outside and try it now?"

The two chatted and laughed for a while longer. Tang Yinmeng got up with a smile and led Jiang Yi back to the beach outside the pavilion.

……

After a friendly exchange of pointers, the two sat side by side on the beach, watching the sunset gradually descend on the lake.

The two sat there quietly, enjoying the afterglow of the setting sun. Only then did Jiang Yi take the opportunity to look at his senior sister beside him.

"Senior sister, I discovered an extremely powerful mental technique in the library. It seems to have a similar effect to the art of music. Would you like to give it a try?"

Jiang Yi blinked, looking at Tang Yinmeng with a somewhat hesitant yet expectant expression.

Tang Yinmeng's martial soul is the ocarina, a sound wave type martial soul, and her fighting style is also biased towards mental power.

"Great! Thank you, junior brother!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yinmeng gently tucked a strand of hair, ruffled by the lake breeze, behind her ear and turned to give him a sweet smile.

That smile, bathed in the warm light of the setting sun, lacked some of her usual aloofness, but possessed a touch of tenderness and allure, causing Jiang Yi's heart to skip a beat for no apparent reason.

A few flames suddenly rose in his chest, as if to ignite the blood and qi in his entire body. It was only by suppressing the vortex of blood and qi that he was able to barely hold it back.

"Ahem... Senior sister, you're too kind. Let me tell you the key points!"

Jiang Yi coughed twice, looked away, and began to explain in detail the cultivation techniques of Hao Dong's Three Wonders.

Perhaps because she couldn't hear him clearly, the senior sister deliberately moved a few steps closer to him.

The enticing fragrance caused the suppressed heat within him to begin to stir again.

He licked his dry lips and thought to himself.

It seems I'll have to go talk to Sister Yu Lai about life later.

I don't know if Sister Yulai can handle it. I don't know why, but I'm a bit irritable today!
Could it be that after the Silver Dragon King's bloodline undergoes a transformation, his desires in this area will also increase...?
