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

No, it's not a feeling.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Ye Yuchan has always been in the stage of being teased by Yun Ping.

Aside from witnessing our old rogue being humiliated and subjected to ** (likely a euphemism for sexual assault), she had never caught Yunping being humiliated.

Women's clothing?

Don't be ridiculous, the person's gender has been changed to female, how can it be considered cross-dressing...?

Moreover, judging from the old rogue's practiced smiles and the way he walked, it was quite obvious...

He had undergone gender reassignment surgery before, otherwise he wouldn't be so skilled.

Just five minutes later, Ye Yuchan was certain that the old rogue was probably just playing a trick on her.

"Can I go back to see my Ruoxue?"

Ye Yuchan raised an eyebrow, clutching her stomach with her left hand, staring ahead with a pained expression.

Yunping reached out and silently tapped Ye Yuchan's head: "Can you stop always backing down? What's wrong with this place? It's just... a little spacious. Your teacher won't harm you."

Ye Yuchan swallowed hard and pointed downwards:

"I don't think a teacher who takes students to a lava pool would not want to harm them."

Yes, a lava pool.

Ahead lay a pool of lava, as calm as the ocean, yet thousands of times hotter, golden in color and steaming with scalding heat!

It's not quite at the level of a volcanic crater. If you had to describe it, this lava pool seems to have appeared out of thin air, as if it were deliberately designed to prevent outsiders from advancing further.

Recalling her past experiences, Yu Chan, who was rather timid, trembled slightly.

"Hey you old rogue...we're not going to have to jump again this time, are we?"

“If you jump this time…” Yunping looked at Ye Yuchan seriously, “you will die immediately.”

Ye Yuchan: "..."

Seeing Ye Yuchan's face turn pale and her expression turn as if she had turned to stone, Yunping sighed helplessly, "Where are we going?"

"Eh?"

Following the direction Yunping pointed, Ye Yuchan slowly turned her gaze to a distant place diagonally opposite.

It was a temple.

A temple that truly seems to enshrine and worship deities.

Like a royal palace, the magnificent decorations and the horizontal railings inlaid with unknown metal crystals shone like the blazing sun, while a radiant pearl emanating a scorching aura stood atop the palace.

From a distance, it looks like a bright pearl in the Flaming Mountains, or the absolute overlord of this scorching land.

To put it simply, it's like...

giant.

"We're going to...that place?" Ye Yuchan's voice trembled slightly.

“Well, judging from Yang Queyinghuo’s personality, he should be in that palace right now.” Yun Ping crossed his arms and looked at the palace with a nostalgic gaze: “After all, he’s such a jerk.”

Ye Yuchan's face darkened: "It's not very nice of you to insult someone like that, is it..."

“I didn’t curse him, he’s a real jerk.”

Ye Yuchan: "???"

……

Although she found Yun Ping's forced sophistry somewhat incomprehensible, Ye Yuchan chose to ignore the old rogue's words for the time being and instead pointed to the lava pool in front of her, which resembled an ocean.

"So here's the problem, the excavator... oops!" Realizing she'd misspoke, Ye Yuchan quickly corrected herself, "How are we going to get across?"

Yunping glanced at Ye Yuchan: "Swim over there?"

"If you want to murder your own disciple, just say so..."

The old rogue shrugged and said, "Alright, then we'll just have to fly there. But with such a long distance, I reckon even the wheelchair I made can't fly that far."

So what do we do?

No sooner had she said this than Ye Yuchan saw Yun Ping standing in front of her.

That not-so-imposing figure, and that punchable face...

Before Ye Yuchan could react, Yun Ping stretched out his hands towards her.

"Huh? Huh? Wait..."

The next second, when she regained consciousness, she was already being held in the old rogue's arms.

The sudden movement startled Yu Chan. A normal hug would have been fine, but the old rogue deliberately chose a princess carry...

That old bastard...

In an instant, Ye Yuchan felt her heart skip a beat, and she lowered her head, not even having the courage to look at Yun Ping.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she stammered, "What...what are you doing? Why are you doing this all of a sudden!"

“Because you can’t fly…” Yunping continued with his nonchalant dead fish eyes, “So I can only take you with me when I fly.”

"Then you...you should have told me first!" Ye Yuchan's face was still flushed with embarrassment as she said in a coquettish voice, "I wasn't prepared at all..."

Yun Ping chuckled mischievously: "You should be mentally prepared for this, shouldn't you?"

Ye Yuchan snorted, struggled slightly in Yun Ping's arms, still not daring to look at him, instead turning her head to the other side: "This...this is called...takeoff preparation! Look at pilots, they also...do...do preparations before boarding the plane..."

—I'm starting to ramble a bit.

Yunping almost burst out laughing. This girl is so speechless, she's even preparing for takeoff.

With a faint smile, Yunping flashed his right hand ring and immediately put the wheelchair he had painstakingly crafted into the ring. Then, he slightly sprang up his legs and his toes left the ground.

The feeling of temporarily escaping gravity wasn't entirely unfamiliar to Ye Yuchan, but being held in the arms of the old rogue was a rather precious experience.

Looking down from directly above, Ye Yuchan could clearly see many sights around her, such as the entire view of the magnificent palace, the endless Flaming Mountains, the raging flames, or the lava that resembled the sea.

It must be admitted that looking down from high above offers an exceptionally beautiful view.

However, this high-altitude experience did not last long, because in the blink of an eye, the scene in front of Ye Yuchan changed at an extremely fast speed, and a gust of wind swept by, making her silver hair extremely messy.

"arrive."

When she regained consciousness, Ye Yuchan blinked, her hair disheveled, completely bewildered.

Huh? We've arrived?

Ye Yuchan stared blankly around, realizing that they had somehow crossed the scorching lava pool and were now standing on the scorching earth.

Eh?

The next second, the silver-white wheelchair reappeared in front of Ye Yuchan.

As for himself, the old rogue quite casually tossed him into a wheelchair—

"This...we've arrived so quickly?"

Ye Yuchan sat in her wheelchair, somewhat bewildered, gazing at the lava pool that seemed to span an immeasurable distance, and tidied her disheveled hair.

She'd only been enjoying a princess carry for less than ten seconds!

Yunping spread his hands and smiled: "This distance is just a matter of taking two steps for me. What, do you want to stay in my arms a little longer?"

"I……"

Ye Yuchan blushed and then puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction.

"Humph~"

She turned her face away: "I never said anything like that. In fact, it's better to get out of your arms, you old scoundrel! You reek of alcohol, it's awful!"

"Oh, I see. That must be very kind of you."

Yun Ping smiled faintly, but to Ye Yuchan, that smile was simply too infuriating...

That idiot old rogue... he doesn't understand human nature at all!

55. Extreme Friendlies

Just as Xu Yanliu said, there really weren't many people in this godforsaken place, Yangque Fire Domain.

At least along the way, Ye Yuchan had never seen any other creature that even resembled a human, apart from the old rogue.

With such alarmingly high temperatures, even demons would probably find few willing to settle in this perpetually scorching region, let alone build a city.

Therefore, even when Ye Yuchan was observing the magnificent palace up close, which seemed to be favored by the gods, she still felt a sense of inexplicable loneliness because there was nothing around it to compare with.

Surrounded by towering flames and scorching lava flowing like ocean currents, the only color to be seen is the fiery crimson, which makes it feel rather monotonous, which is understandable.

"I have a feeling... this palace is a bit lonely..."

Apart from that towering palace, there was nothing else around.

In some ways, the fact that this magnificent palace stands there all alone is rather incongruous.

It's no wonder Ye Yuchan felt that way.

Yun Ping gazed at the tightly closed, crimson gate, about ten meters high, engraved with countless ancient characters, and slowly closed his eyes: "Most of the Twenty-One Extremes are very proud and aloof."

"Huh?" Ye Yuchan was a little confused by this: "Someone like Yin Hanxuebing shouldn't be considered arrogant, right?"

"If it were her, she would probably be more lonely and less arrogant."

"I didn't feel she was lonely either..."

"Loneliness that can be seen is not true loneliness."

Yunping patted Ye Yuchan's head, but the latter pouted and slapped his hand away.

He didn't seem to care, and shook his head with a smile.

“Silver Frost and Snow Ice and Netherworld Ghost Fire are two exceptions. They have both been involved in the world for a long time and are no longer the twenty-one ultimates that are above the three thousand Great Daos, so they may not look very approachable.”

Ye Yuchan nodded seriously: "Yeah, especially that Netherworld Ghost Fire... it's a total troublemaker."

"You are the least qualified person to criticize others for causing trouble..."
