She had always been a lonely and helpless woman... Perhaps I was once her support, but later...

One is in Beihai, and the other is in Panlong.

Separated by mountains and rivers.

Although mountains and rivers will eventually level out and the sea will change, the people who should have been together all those years ago have never been seen again.

"Master?"

Wei Tu couldn't help but call out to Lu Qingyan.

Lu Qingyan paused for a moment, then turned around and looked at Wei Tu with some surprise.

At this moment, Wei Tu was even more astonished, because he realized that Lu Qingyan's clothes looked like she had just taken a shower, her hair was still a little wet, and her thin clothes were barely visible in the damp rain, while her chest was an alluring flesh color, and the delicate collarbone of this young woman could be clearly seen at the neckline.

Wei Tu was slightly lost in thought, while Lu Qingyan seemed not to have thought about it at all, not realizing that the other party's daze was because of her alluring body.

"How did you get in?"

Wei Tu snapped out of her daze and glanced to the side, pointing towards the entrance downstairs.

"The door just opened as soon as I pushed it open."

"I didn't bolt the door?"

"Probably..."

"Damn it... how could I forget this?"

Lu Qingyan muttered something that sounded slightly annoyed.

Wei Tu found his master's appearance rather cute and said with a smile, "What, you still want to lock your good disciple out? Then I'll have to climb out the window again?"

Lu Qingyan glared at Wei Tu.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Did I tell you to climb out of the window?"

Wei Tu said with a grin, "Of course not, I climbed up myself. What could I do if you wouldn't open the door for me?"

"You won't go back?"

"No, I can't go back since we made a promise... By the way, Master, what were you looking at just now? You seemed so focused..."

Wei Tu leaned forward, wanting to see what Lu Qingyan had been so focused on observing, but unexpectedly Lu Qingyan stood directly in front of Wei Tu.

"Don't look! Get out of here!"

Wei Tu became interested after hearing this.

I've never seen my master so eager before.

"Let me see it! Master, please move aside, I just want to see it!"

"No! What are you looking at? What are you doing, you little kid? Get out! Hurry up, or I'll get angry!"

Lu Qingyan was still blocking Wei Tu's view.

Seeing that the other party was determined not to let him see it, Wei Tu sighed.

Then, as if he had discovered something, he stared at Lu Qingyan's chest and said...

"Master, you're wearing so little."

Lu Qingyan was stunned when she heard this, and then followed Wei Tu's gaze downwards, and saw her chest, which was wet with her hair, and her round, snow-white breasts, which were covered by a strapless bra, were faintly visible... It was as if her full and firm breasts were being seen by the other party.

What are you looking at?!

Lu Qingyan immediately turned around, not wanting the other person to see the exposed skin she had revealed.

But at this moment, Wei Tu could lean against her back and look over her shoulder.

The smiling boy said, "Master, I've already seen it."

"you……"

The boy's hot breath was brazenly exhaled onto Lu Qingyan's cheek, making her feel strangely uneasy.

But when he said he had seen it, he could only remain silent.

Then, Wei Tu, who had been laughing the whole time, fell silent.

Because he saw something on the table: a wooden sword.

If my memory serves me correctly, then this wooden sword is the one Lu Qingyan made me practice with, and it should be in my room.

Wei Tu was somewhat surprised.

"How come this thing is with you..."

Lu Qingyan smiled as she looked at the wooden sword, which had a sense of age and was covered with countless tiny scratches, a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

I found this while cleaning your house. You haven't lived here for so long, it's covered in dust, so I had to clean it up for you... I brought this wooden sword back when I saw it.

Wei Tu was also somewhat moved.

For a moment, she seemed to forget how close she was to Lu Qingyan.

They didn't sense any romantic tension; instead, it made them both feel warm and cozy, as if they could recall many things from the past.

“I remember that you, Master, personally carved this sword for me.”

Lu Qingyan smiled and nodded, her eyes sparkling like ripples on water.

"Yeah. It took me a lot of effort back then. I made several, but the first one was too big and heavy, not suitable for you when you were so young. Then I made another one, but it was too light and wouldn't be very effective for practicing. It took me a long time to make this one. I was pretty stupid. Thinking back, there were definitely a lot of things I didn't know back then."

Hearing Lu Qingyan's words, Wei Tu did not laugh, but his eyes were so gentle.

"Master, there's something I've always wanted to ask you."

"Ok?"

Lu Qingyan was lost in thought and asked subconsciously.

Then he heard the boy's deep voice beside his ear.

"I want to ask you, Master, why were you so kind to me when you brought me up the mountain?"

This was something Wei Tu had always wanted to ask. He knew that there was no love or hate without a reason in this world; there was always a cause, even if it was just a feeling, a mysterious reason, or even something ethereal.

He simply wanted to know how to make this relationship feel less unreal.

Lu Qingyan thought about the question for a moment.

As if lost in memories, she spoke as if to herself.

“At that time, I thought you were very brave, because when most children witness the death of their parents, they will only be afraid and terrified... But your first thought was to take revenge, even though you were so thin and still very young at the time.”

Later, seeing how diligently you practiced, I felt that even if your talent wasn't that great at the time, your dedication was what kept you going.

Actually, I'm an orphan too. My situation was similar when my master brought me up the mountain, except my parents died in a natural disaster. I still remember the heavy snow that year. Even seeing your story back then, I felt I lacked your unwavering determination.

As for what happened later... I guess I just got used to it. I got used to living together, used to teaching you swordsmanship, used to watching you and Ying'er go up and down the mountain together. At first, I thought it was fine for me to practice swordsmanship alone, I didn't need any apprentices. It was because of my master's last wish to carry on the legacy of Xiaoyuan Peak that I found you.

I didn't care about talent or anything back then... I never imagined so many years would pass in the blink of an eye.

Listening to Lu Qingyan's gentle words.

Wei Tu smiled slightly, looking at her glistening earlobes, and asked.

"So, Master, do you still think being alone is fine?"

Lu Qingyan thought for a moment.

“I’ve gotten used to it now… and I think it’s fine this way. Watching you grow up, seeing you one day make something of yourself and achieve fame and success, makes me feel very content… and all those obsessions don’t seem important anymore. I just want you to live well in this world. Is this what it feels like to be a parent?”

"I treated you as my master, but you want to be my mother?"

Lu Qingyan chuckled, then realized that the other person was too close to her, so she smoothly moved a little distance away and looked at the boy reproachfully.

"Look at you now, do you even act like a teacher? You just walk into my room as you please... What kind of behavior is this?"

Wei Tu looked at Lu Qingyan innocently.

"But everything I've done is for Master's good, isn't it?"

"I don't believe it."

Lu Qingyan turned her face away.

Wei Tu laughed at this moment.

"Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter... but it's getting late, Master... how about we go to bed?"

Lu Qingyan's flawless, snow-white cheeks flushed instantly, even more radiant than when illuminated by candlelight. PS: Sigh... I have to revise the chapter again. I guess I got caught!

58. A Fake Master-Disciple Relationship

No matter how much Lu Qingyan tried to resist, it was clear that her disciple's will was unstoppable.

Especially that irresistible line: "Anyway, it's not the first or second time. It would be a pity to give up now. All my efforts and the suffering you've endured would be in vain."

Yes... Lu Qingyan would also hypnotize herself like that.

If it weren't for him, his disciple wouldn't be thinking about how to refine the medicinal bath and how to help him reshape his sword bones every day...

It may seem that he was taking advantage of the intimate contact, but in reality, Wei Tu was almost unconscious from exhaustion each time, and the amount of internal energy he consumed was unimaginable.

She felt that she couldn't bring herself to let all his efforts go to waste just because of her own shyness and her belief that it violated ethics... Lu Qingyan realized that she really couldn't do it.

It wasn't because her suffering seemed to have been in vain; it was simply the way things were in this world. Often, no matter how much effort you put in, how much hardship you endured, or how much pain you suffered, you wouldn't get an equal return. But... she didn't want Wei Tu to feel disheartened.

At the very least, I can't let him feel disheartened because of me.

So she sat on the bed again, and like someone burying their head in the sand, she made Wei Tu close his eyes. This time, Lu Qingyan even took out a black ribbon she had prepared and wrapped it around the boy's eyes.

Wei Tu was somewhat surprised when she saw the black ribbon.

"Master...you were prepared all along?"

Lu Qingyan's face turned so red it was almost as if it were about to bleed.

She certainly sensed that she wouldn't be able to firmly refuse Wei Tu, or this young man.

So, since I couldn't refuse, I figured I might as well at least make myself feel more at ease.
