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

Of course, this so-called minority is not actually that small; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that there are only one or two hundred people.

Among them, there are indeed cultivators who have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, but there should not be more than ten such cultivators in the entire Two-Character Sect.

Don't think that ten is a small number.

After all, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage are considered elders in sects within the Kun Tian Domain, while those at the Void Transformation stage can establish their own sects and become sect leaders.

As for saints and immortals?

That's an existence beyond the norm. Even Cao Qingluo, the dean of the Three Heavens Academy, is only a Saint in cultivation. He wouldn't even dare to dream of becoming a Half-Immortal.

However, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage generally do not choose to stay at the Three Heavens Academy. After all, at this level of cultivation, apart from the dean and vice dean, no one can teach them anything. Therefore, Nascent Soul stage disciples have usually gone out to train and seek a way to break through.

That being said—

"Please have a seat, Miss Fan."

Faced with the woman before him, who possessed such remarkable beauty, Fan Luokui felt somewhat unable to see through her.

Her cultivation level was roughly at the Lesser Completion of the Opening Origin Realm, but the spiritual energy emanating from her body was truly too strange.

Fan Luokui did not refuse the woman's invitation and sat down opposite her.

Just as she sat down, she seemed to smell a hint of danger—a scent emanating from a woman.

Fan Luokui almost instinctively gripped the scabbard. Her intuition was always very accurate; whenever she smelled danger, it meant that the other party was not someone to be trifled with.

She glanced at the wine in front of her, examining it for a few seconds—confirming that it wasn't poisoned.

"You are……"

"My surname is Bai, and my given name is Yun, the same as in phonology."

The woman readily stated her name, extended her fair hand, grasped the wine glass, and took a casual sip.

It was as if this was specifically designed to demonstrate to Fan Luokui that the wine was non-toxic.

The cherry-haired girl still showed no intention of drinking, instead staring intently at Bai Yun, her gaze never leaving her.

She didn't believe Bai Yun had only come to ask her for a drink.

"I wonder what business Miss Bai Yun has with me?"

Faced with such a direct question, Bai Yun smiled and said calmly, "It's nothing much, but I was just curious about what kind of person Miss Fan was that caused such a commotion on her first day. I wondered what kind of person could drive those men crazy. I've finally met her today..."

"It is indeed a bit enviable."

"A disturbance? What disturbance?"

A slightly intense gaze fell on Fan Luokui, and the cherry-haired girl narrowed her eyes.

Bai Yun glanced at Fan Luo Kui with some surprise, quickly confirming that Fan Luo Kui's doubts were not unfounded, and then said with some disbelief, "It seems that Miss Fan doesn't quite have any self-awareness in this regard—"

"In that case..."

Her smile gradually disappeared, replaced by a chilling coldness.

"Miss Fan, have you ever heard of... the saying 'beautiful women bring disaster'?"

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

I got back late today, and the update is late too. Sorry everyone.

If I have time tomorrow, I'll update more!

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival holiday everyone!

53. The Third Evil – Jealousy

"The Three Evils?"

Jiang Yuetian frowned, looking puzzled, as if she didn't quite understand what the person in front of her was saying.

In a corner of the Three-Day Academy's dining hall, a male cultivator with an extremely pale face swallowed hard. Facing the sharp spear tip pressed against his throat, he nodded tremblingly, already hearing the footsteps of death.

His legs trembled uncontrollably, and he could not speak fluently.

"Yes...yes, you've only been at the academy for three days...it's...normal that you don't know..."

Looking at the disciple of the Three-Day Academy who was sweating profusely and had a deathly pale face, Jiang Yuetian narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the man, trying to find any trace of a lie.

However, judging from the person's fearful and anxious demeanor, the possibility of them deliberately lying is not high.

"Explain in detail, what exactly do you mean by the three evils?"

"Actually, it doesn't mean anything special. It's just that there are three relatively powerful forces in our Three Heavens Academy. The reason they're called the Three Evils is simply because they don't act in a reasonable way..."

"Not very reasonable?"

"Yes……"

The male cultivator nodded sharply, then looked around. Because it was a very remote corner, and there were only a few people in the dining hall, almost no one could see him here.

Seemingly anticipating the possibility of eavesdroppers, the male cultivator took a deep breath before speaking in a low voice:

"Senior Sister Bai Yun is very jealous, and she comes from a prestigious family with connections to most of the teachers at the Three Heavens Academy. Not only does she have a wide network of connections, but she is also very strong herself... Perhaps she's used to sitting in a high position, and she can't stand people who are more outstanding than her... especially female disciples..."

"Many promising junior sisters who rose from the first-class sect to the second-class sect were secretly dealt with by her... Some were expelled from the Three-Day Academy, while others were ostracized and bullied... Although everyone saw these things, no one dared to stand up... How could we, who have no ability, go against Senior Sister Bai Yun..."

After hearing his words, Jiang Yuetian's expression grew even more gloomy.

After Fan Luokui left, Jiang Yuetian hurriedly prepared a meal for the little girl Lin Yuan, and then began to search for clues about Lord Bai in the huge dining hall.

If he could, he naturally wouldn't want to resort to force, but the male cultivator in front of him repeatedly teased him with words when he questioned him, and even tried to touch him inappropriately...

Xiao Jiang had no choice. After all, as a man, it was impossible for him not to react when another man touched his butt.

That's why we have this scene where Jiang Yuetian is holding a gun to the corner of the cafeteria and interrogating the other party for information.

However, it turned out that the other party did indeed possess some information that he was unaware of.

Jealousy...?

Jiang Yuetian slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, then asked:

"Besides Bai Yun, who are the other two villains?"

"Of the three evils... two are in the Two-Character Sect. Originally, our Three-Day Academy only had two evils, but we heard from the junior brothers and sisters in the One-Character Sect that a big figure has recently emerged from their sect, so there is now one more evil."

Even the One-Character Sect has an evil?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuetian couldn't help but think of Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue, who were cultivating at the Yizi Sect—surely these two junior sisters wouldn't get involved with the evil forces, would they?

However, considering Ye Yuchan's ability to cause trouble, Jiang Yuetian thought it was still possible.

However, Jiang Yuetian was somewhat surprised that such a criminal organization existed in the Three-Day Academy, but upon reflection, it wasn't anything unusual.

After all, those chosen by the Three-Day Academy are either exceptionally talented and blessed by the heavens, or they are scions from prestigious families, major sects, and powerful backgrounds. The former are arrogant, while the latter have powerful backers. These teachers of the Three-Day Academy may not be able to offend them.

"Tell me who the other two villains are, and then you can leave."

With his spear drooping slightly, Jiang Yuetian had no intention of taking anyone's life. He was only doing this to force the other party to reveal the truth.

He quickly put the magic weapon spear into his storage ring, then fixed his sharp gaze on the male cultivator in front of him who was clearly relieved.

The meaning behind his gaze was clear—speak up, or you'll get a beating.

The male cultivator's expression changed several times in an instant. His gaze inadvertently fell on Lin Yuan, who was licking a lollipop next to Jiang Yuetian, and a bold idea flashed through his mind.

However, the idea was too risky, and after thinking about it, he decided to back down...

"The other two villains of the Three-Day Academy... besides Senior Sister Bai Yun, are our Second-Character Sect's eldest brother, Zhan Mo, and the newly emerged villain from the First-Character Sect."

"Zhan Mo?"

Jiang Yuetian recognized the name.

Back when the grand banquet was held at the Imperial Pavilion, it seemed that only one person from the Three Days Academy had emerged, but he was beaten so badly by Yun Ping that he almost questioned his existence.

Thinking about it carefully, although many people went to the academy during those three days, most of them were teachers. Of course, many disciples also went, but it was clear that Bai Yun was not among them.

If Bai Yun really knew what Yuntian Academy was doing at the Emperor's Pavilion, she would definitely have to come and meet Fan Luokui in person.

The matter of the Emperor's Pavilion was completely blocked, and even the Three-Day Academy probably didn't want to get involved in this mess.

An idea flashed through Jiang Yuetian's mind. He nodded slightly and then asked the last question.

"And the last one, that faction within the One-Character Sect, do you know their name?"

"I do know a little about that... or rather, I only know the other person's name, nothing else..."

"Knowing just the name is fine."

—Once I know the name, I can inform my two junior sisters, Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue, and ask them to avoid contact with the other party as much as possible.

They didn't come to the academy for three days just to cause trouble.

The male cultivator breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was glad that he could finally slip away, before uttering the last person's name.

"If I remember correctly, those students were just a few months ago who came to our Three-Day Academy..."

"And she's a woman, a disciple personally accepted by the headmaster, which is why no one in the Yizi Sect dares to provoke her... As for her name, I remember it should be—"

"Duan Xingchen".

…………

…………

Inside the courtyard.

At the dinner table, Fan Luokui's expression remained as cold as ever.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

She had no intention of continuing to play word puzzles with Bai Yun, especially since she had already caught the hostility that Bai Yun had shown in that brief moment.

Although she didn't know why the other party was so hostile towards her, Fan Luokui was not afraid at all.

The cultivation levels of the two rows of female cultivators around him were mostly around the Transcendental Stage, with two of them reaching the entry level of the Origin Realm. In addition, there was Bai Yun, who was at the minor completion stage of the Origin Realm, making it somewhat difficult for him to fight against multiple opponents.

Even in the worst-case scenario, if she wanted to leave, at least no one here should be able to stop her.

Besides, she didn't necessarily have to run away.

Bai Yun smiled gently, her slender fingers toying with the crystal wine glass, a playful glint in her eyes: "Should I say Miss Fan is straightforward, or that she's too oblivious... It seems Miss Fan didn't do any homework before coming to our Erzi Sect."
