Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

Nothing was left behind, as if no one had ever been there.

In the main hall of the Snow Cold Palace, the woman standing at the top of the pyramid of power among the three great heavenly domains looked at the empty hall and sighed after a moment.

She then broke into a subtle smile and pulled a brand new handkerchief from her bosom.

That was a handkerchief that my favorite apprentice had woven for me last night.

What is engraved on it is a bright sunflower swaying in the wind and snow.

"I'm waiting for you to come back."

★ NO.3 Ten Thousand Factions Clash ★

1. What comes after the flying chicken? Of course, it's...

Maple Leaf City.

Like Jinglin City, it is an inconspicuous city belonging to the Lantian Empire, and its territory is even smaller than that of its neighbor, Jinglin City.

However, in terms of fame, Maple Leaf City definitely surpasses Jinglin City, and is even considered one of the more famous cities in the vast Lantian Empire.

There is no other reason.

Since the Tianjue era, the four arts of qin (a stringed instrument), chess, calligraphy, and painting, which had been neglected and forgotten, have been revived. Countless people are eager to learn these four arts from Emperor Wen, and there are countless people who regard Emperor Wen as their idol.

Even musicians and chess players received great respect, and special schools for music and chess were established to assess their levels and provide them with training.

Maple Leaf City is the birthplace of the Crimson Leaf Qin, one of the thirty-six unique zithers of the Qin Sect. The Qin Sect also established a large branch in Maple Leaf City, making it one of the few Qin Sect branch locations in the Lantian Empire.

Outside Maple Leaf City.

That dense redwood forest is the source of materials for the Red Leaf Qin, and it is currently completely controlled by Maple Leaf City, and is almost never open to the outside world.

however--

Rustling.

Large swaths of deep red leaves fell from the sky, like snowflakes stained with blood.

The young man's face looked like he had an upset stomach. He looked at his feet, which were completely suspended in the air, and then at his limbs, which were wedged among the branches and leaves. He blinked.

"Um, it seems there's been a tiny mishap..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted several cold gazes from those around him.

This is only natural, after all, no girl would want to be hung on a tree more than ten meters high and swayed back and forth like a puppet.

Yes, this embarrassed young man is none other than Emperor Wen, the second immortal of all time who brought the Four Absolutes to their ultimate level and finally attained enlightenment.

The several pretty women hanging with him in the redwood forest, covered in red leaves and entwined with intricate branches, were his apprentices.

"To be honest, I thought my teacher would be a very reliable person."

The girl, expressionless and maintaining her usual cold and aloof demeanor, spoke softly.

As a new disciple who has just joined Yuntian Academy and signed the admission notice, Fan Luokui now has a lot of opinions about Yun Ping.

She began to suspect that Yin Hanxuebing was setting her up.

"Well, there's nothing I can do about it," Yun Ping said with an awkward smile, shifting his gaze away from Fan Luo Kui's cold stare. "I haven't tinkered with teleportation arrays in a long time, so I'm a little out of practice."

"And then you teleported us...up in a tree?"

Ye Yuchan's expression was one of utter stomach pain. Everyone else was fine, but she was the only one hanging upside down!

Brilliant silver threads cascaded down like a waterfall, slender legs wrapped in white silk were entangled by a bunch of thin branches, and bare shoulders revealed a hint of youthful allure.

And more importantly... her skirt wasn't anti-gravity.

Fortunately, a few tree branches caught on Ye Yuchan's maid skirt, revealing only a small section of her snow-white thighs, creating a scene where her underwear was not visible but her beautiful legs were.

Absolute Territory!

The beauty that is both elusive and alluring is perfectly embodied at this moment.

Wow... what a beautiful view!

Unfortunately, before Yunping could enjoy the view enough, Ye Yuchan's shy shouts came over.

"You old scoundrel, what are you looking at!"

"No, I didn't see anything." Yun Ping quickly looked away, then coughed as if to sound serious. "I was just looking at you and a line of poetry came to mind."

"What poem?"

"Hanging himself from a tree in the southeast."

……

That makes so much sense, I can't even argue with it!

"I think we should come down from the tree first, and then find a chance to dig a hole and bury this unprofessional teacher."

Yunping stared at Zhang Ruoxue in astonishment, "No way, Ruoxue, how come you've also been corrupted by Xiaoyuchan? Why are you targeting me like this?"

"I've always been targeting you, but the teacher is too stupid to realize it."

These words had barely left his lips.

A gust of wind suddenly arose around Zhang Ruoxue, swirling up all the red leaves around her. Freed from her restraints, Zhang Ruoxue fell vertically from the spot.

boom.

Although the distance of a dozen meters was not particularly high, it still stirred up a roar.

Unfortunately, due to the inertia of the fall not being eliminated immediately, Zhang Ruoxue's sailor uniform slipped as she hit the ground, exposing her fair left shoulder.

Incidentally, the upper part of the snow-white mountain peak was also exposed.

"Wow~"

A lewd exclamation suddenly came from above.

The old rogue glanced at the startled Zhang Ruoxue and subconsciously blurted out what was on his mind.

"No wonder I always felt Ruoxue was bigger than Yuchan, it turns out Ruoxue doesn't usually wear..."

“…Pervert!” Zhang Ruoxue glared at Yun Ping with shame and indignation, straightening her clothes as she angrily threatened, “Perverted teacher, you'd better forget what just happened, or I’ll take advantage of you while you’re asleep and put your eyes…”

What Zhang Ruoxue said next was something Yunping already knew without her saying it.

"Okay, okay, I forgot, I forgot, alright? For the sake of my eyes, I'll just forget, okay? Really."

Yunping said this, but he had already visually estimated Zhang Ruoxue's size in his mind.

It seems that our female apprentices are all developing quite well.

And today is simply a lucky day for men, with Ye Yuchan giving them the "absolute territory" and Zhang Ruoxue giving them that kind of perk.

It looks like something good is bound to happen today.

—Hanging it on a tree is an exception.

To Yunping's great regret, Fan Luokui then kept herself completely hidden and didn't receive any benefits.

Finally, everyone managed to get down from the tree.

Gently patting the red leaves off his clothes, Yunping looked around and began to use his divine sense to investigate their location.

Half a second later, his divine sense swept across a large part of the Lantian Empire.

After confirming the location, Yunping sighed and faced the crowd.

"Well, my teleportation array did encounter a minor malfunction, but it wasn't a particularly big one..."

"It's not even that big yet," Ye Yuchan sneered. "It's already hanging on the tree. If you do it again, I'm afraid I'll be thrown into the water."

"...Am I really that bad?"

It really was Yunping's fault, and he was helpless in the face of Ye Yuchan's complaints.

"But to be honest, this place isn't actually that far from our courtyard house."

"I know I know!"

A little girl started jumping around happily.

Everyone's curious gazes unconsciously fell on Lin Yuan, who, despite having only recently awakened, was the most active among them.

Lin Yuan swayed her body, her face full of joyful smiles, "This is the Crimson Wood Forest! I saw it by chance when I came to Maple Leaf City to assess my musical skill level!"

"Is this Maple Leaf City?" A hint of surprise flashed across Fan Luo Kui's usually placid expression. "Senior Sister Lin, is this the Maple Leaf City that houses one of the Thirty-Six Exquisite Zithers?"

“Yes!” Lin Yuan tilted her head and looked at Fan Luo Kui with a strange expression. “But don’t call me Senior Sister Yuan’er, it sounds weird. Just call me Senior Sister Yuan’er.”

Fan Luo Kui's expression changed, and she shook her head very seriously. "It is against etiquette to address senior sisters and senior brothers by their names. Senior Sister Lin can call me Junior Sister Luo Kui, but I cannot call Senior Sister Yuan'er."

……

She really is a girl who is unusually rigid in some inexplicable way.

Lin Yuan looked at Yun Ping, puzzled, and scratched her little face. "Teacher, teacher, Yuan'er doesn't quite understand..."

“It’s alright if Yuan’er doesn’t understand… Let’s just do as your junior sister says for now.”

"Ugh... Okay, Yuan'er is a good girl, so she'll listen to her teacher~"

"Mmm, Yuan'er is such a good girl~"

Yunping smiled and patted Yuan'er's head. Sure enough, our Yuan'er is the cutest one.

While Yunping was still enjoying the thrill of the head pat, Zhang Ruoxue on the other side had already raised the crucial question.

She straightened her sailor uniform and adjusted her cat ears before asking, "So how do we get back now? As far as I know, Maple Leaf City isn't far from Jinglin City."

"Let's use the teleportation array again," Yunping replied succinctly. "Don't worry, I'll definitely..."

"I refuse." X3

……

The three female apprentices shouted in unison.

Yunping felt a pang of heartache and almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.
