Number One Under Heaven

Chapter 100: Like One Big Family

A note from BaiSiwa

100 chapters milestone  ">

The sun was only halfway up, its sunlight illuminating the entire world.

Han Yixue was currently sitting with her legs crossed in the courtyard, listening to the movements of green grass being blown by the morning breeze.

Her beautiful eyes were wide open, staring into the darkness in front of her. The darkness was a pair of eyes, its depth deeper than the dark abyss. Inside the darkness, flickering lights like the stars in the midnight sky could be seen.

I never noticed Masters eyes were this beautiful and profound she said to herself.

His eyes were normal at glance, yet if one were to take a deeper look, they could see an entire universe beneath it shrouded with mysterious meanings.

Han Yixue has been staring into this darkness for many hours now, yet she was not able to understand anything. It felt like she was sealed within a room with ancient languages written on the wall, and the only way to get out was to decipher these ancient words with no clues!

Han Yixue closed her eyes, Sorry, Master, I was unable to understand anything. I have wasted Masters time she said, her voice was filled with disappointment.

Tian Yi smiled, There is no need to feel depressed over something so insignificant. You may not understand it one day or even an entire year, but there will be one day where you will, and when that time comes, you will be one of the main pillars that will uphold Heaven, overseeing all living beings, he encouraged her.

Even though Han Yixue has a pair of unique eyes, her talent and cultivation were only mediocre. If someone like her was able to see through his eyes in only a few hours, then why was she still a Mortal? Forget about a True God, even a Celestial God will not be able to fully see through the profoundness within his eyes!

My objective this time was to let you get comfortable. We will be doing this a lot more in the future, with me guiding you properly, of course, said Tian Yi.

Yes, Master! she said, her voice filled with enthusiasm.

Good, Tian Yi nodded, and he looked to the sun, Its almost morning. Yu Yue should be making breakfast right now, lets end our training here; we will continue tonight, he said.

They both got up and walked into the house.

Han Yixue went to wash herself while Tian Yi went towards the kitchen.

Smelling the mouth-watering aroma in the air, he smiled unknowingly.

Standing outside of the door, Tian Yi silently watches the figure standing in front of the stove.

Yu Yue stood there, her hair tied up into a bun. Her slender arms were moving left and right at a quick pace, clearly experienced at whatever she was doing. She had a serious expression on her face, looking very focused on her work.

The smile on Tian Yis face became wider, and he went inside the kitchen.

Yu Yue dropped whatever she was preparing to turn around, and bowed, Good morning, Master. Breakfast is almost ready, she said.

Good morning, Yu Yue. You can ignore me and continue with whatever you were doing. I am only here to watch, he spoke as he walked closer to her.

Yu Yue nodded and continued to cook.

Tian Yi stood a few feet away from her and watched her cook.

How is it? Are you feeling more comfortable cooking Mortal food? he suddenly asked her.

Yes, Master! I have already memorized every Mortal recipe in this world; I can also cook without using ingredients from the higher realms now, she answered with a smile, her voice full of confidence and accomplishment.

When she first started, she was unable to cook without using heavenly ingredients, and if a Mortal food was cooked with such ingredients, would it still be Mortal food?

Un. Thats good to hear, he nodded.

Master, I will be gone tomorrow after breakfast to go shopping for more ingredients; we are running out, you see she said.

Shopping huh Tian Yi murmured.

Okay, I will come with you then; we can go shopping together, he continued.

Eh?! Yu Yue suddenly felt her arms go weak, almost dropping the food.

A-Are you sure, Master? she asked.

Unlike shopping for treasures and Cultivation Techniques, shopping for ingredients was a chore for servants, so for Tian Yi, the Master, to go shopping with her, it was something rarely seen.

Of course, he answered, I have never gone shopping before. And this will be a good chance for us to become more familiar with each other.

!!!

Yu Yues heart skipped a beat when she heard the last sentence, and her blood began boiling in excitement, wishing for tomorrow to come already.

Tian Yi grabbed a few plates, I will help you carry some, he said and began walking out.

....

Yu Yue stood there silently for a moment before following him to the living room.

In the living room, everybody was already sitting at the large round table with an empty stomach. The mouth-watering smell had woken them up long ago, and they quickly got up to wash themselves before sitting down to wait.

Good morning, everybody.

Good morning, Big Brother!

Good morning, Tian Yi.

Good morning, Master.

Tian Yi exchanged greetings with Meng Xiang, Xuan Wanshan, and Yan Yan before placing the food on the table and sitting down.

This was only the beginning of their second day at the Sect, and they are already living like one big family

The square table they had before could only fit four people, so they had to change it for a bigger one yesterday, one that was able to fit six bodies.

After all the food was placed and everybody was seated, they began eating.

Master, did you bring her to the Supreme Library of the Heavenly God yesterday? Yan Yan suddenly asked.

Yes, I showed her around up till the 2nd floor, he said.

Supreme Library of the Heavenly God? What kind of place is that? Xuan Wanshan asked with curiosity.

Such a domineering and holy sounding name, what kind of place could it be?

Its not really a place--- more like a dimension, Yu Yue answered.

Senior Sister Yue, you have been there too? Han Yixue asked with surprise.

Of course. But I only have access up to the 6th floor, she answered.

Her family ruled one of the 99 Mortal World, so how was it possible for her not to have access to the Supreme Library of the Heavenly God?

You can now go up to the 8th floor the next time you decide to go there, said Tian Yi.

She is a personal servant of the Tian Family now, after all.

Really?! Thank you, Master! Yu Yue forcefully swallowed her food before shouting with excitement.

What was on the 8th floor? Cultivation Techniques capable of shattering stars with a mere thought, thats what! Forget about the 8th floor, even her grandfather only has access to the 7th floor.

I had originally planned on getting a few Cultivation Techniques for both you and Yan Yan, but I had forgotten about the fact that the two of you already have access.

What is this place, after all? Xuan Wanshan asked again, her curiosity became stronger after she saw the excitement in Yu Yues eyes.

She had even shown her a few of her best Cultivation Techniques before, but she did not even lift an eyebrow after seeing it, hurting her pride. To make her so excited, what kind of place was this Supreme Library of the Heavenly God?

Tian Yi looked at her and explained, The Supreme Library of the Heavenly God is what Yu Yue had said before, a place in an entirely different dimension. It is a magical place where you cannot enter physically, only mentally. In that place, you can borrow Heavenly Cultivation Techniques, Divine Treasures, Ancient Pill Recipes, and more.

Interest flickered in her eyes, Mentally? How is that possible? she asked.

With your Soul, he said.

....

Xuan Wanshan turned silent for a moment before asking, Can I go there?

She did not want to miss out on something that sounded so interesting.

Of course. As a matter of fact, you can already go there, but because of your low Cultivation and Divine strength, you will not be able to sense it. If you really want to go, either Yu Yue, Yan Yan, or myself, can guide you there.

Really?! I want to go!

Master, I can bring her there, Yu Yue said.

Good, then the both of you can plan it out---

Ah, Wanshan, Meng Xiang, I also have a Cultivation Technique for the two of you later, he added.

Meng Xiang who has been ignoring them and stuffing her mouth with the delicious food finally perked her ears.

Me? she asked.

Tian Yi nodded, Un.

Yay! Thank you, Big Brother, she said, her mouth still filled with food.

Hey! Talking with food in your mouth is not polite; at least swallow your food before speaking, Xuan Wanshan lectured her.

Meng Xiang nodded while chewing on her food.

Tian Yi laughed when he saw Meng Xiangs face.

I really do love all of you, he suddenly said, instantly silencing the room.

Eh?

Everybody there looked at him with a dumbfounded face.

Ah Han Yixue facepalmed herself inside her head.

Yan Yan was the first one to break the silence.

M-Master, w-what did you just say?

I did not know how to express my feelings before, but I have learned a few things, he said.

Tian Yi slowly looked at the people sitting around him from left to right, and a warm smile appeared on his face, I said, I love you all.

The sound of chopsticks dropping on the floor could be heard.

Yu Yues mouth was wide open, and the chopsticks that she was holding was nowhere to be seen.

Countless emotions flashed by Xuan Wanshans eyes, yet she could only stare at him with wide eyes.

The beautiful azure feathers on Yan Yan were all standing up straight as if she had just experienced the most bone-chilling experience ever.

Meng Xiang was the only one who did not look too shocked, and she shouted, I love Big Brother too!

Ahhh I will have some explaining to do after this, Han Yixue sighed inside her heart.

Knock. Knock.

Somebody knocked on the door, but that did not wake the girls up from their shocked state.

Being the closest one to the door, Tian Yi stood up to greet the guest.

Oh? What brings senior apprentice-brother Qiu here today?

Tian Yi smiled at the handsome young man with sword-like eyebrows in front of him.

He has not seen this young man ever since he accepted Xuan Wanshan as his Master, and he did not expect such a sudden visit from him.

The young man surnamed Qiu frowned at Tian Yis words, Senior apprentice-brother Qiu? That sounds awkward coming from you; just call me by my name, Qiu Heng, he said.

This young man was precisely Qiu Heng, one of the most elite disciples within the entire Sect. His first encounter with Tian Yi was not a pleasant one, but they ended up solving the problem, becoming somewhat good friends.

Still with a smile on his face, he said, Very well, Qiu Heng. So? What wind blew you here today?

I just came out of closed door cultivation an hour ago, and the Sect Master notified me of your return, so I wanted to come by and say hello. Ah, I also have something else----

His face began turning a bit red for some reason.

The only reason I left closed door cultivation was to go to the Heavenly Fragrance of Pure Flowers. There will be a special event there this afternoon that only happens once every 4 years. he said.

Tian Yi did not speak and waited for him to finish.

The blush on Qiu Heng became more apparent as he continued, And I wanted to see if you would be willing to accompany me there

Of course, I would not mind going. I will be free for a while after all, said Tian Yi.

All the disciples he lectured were still in closed cultivation so he will not be able to continue with his lectures until they come back out.

Hearing that, Qiu Hengs face brightened, Really?! Good! It would be awkward for me to go there by myself after all

By the way, what is this Heavenly Fragrance of Pure Flowers place you speak of? Tian Yi asked.

Eh? You dont know?

He looked at him with surprise. As a residence in this Jin Long Continent, how was it possible for anybody to not know of that sacred place?

That place is----

His words suddenly stopped halfway because of the figure behind Tian Yi.

S-Senior Xuan, g-greetings he stuttered with his greetings, something he has never done before.

Xuan Wanshan had woken up from her shock a moment ago after hearing a certain word.

She glared at Qiu Heng with sharp, deadly aura shooting out of her narrowed eyes like daggers.

Disciple Qiu Heng... you dared to invite someone as innocent as Tian Yi to that wicked place, Heavenly Fragrance of Pure Flowers?!?! Are you trying to corrupt him?! her voice was low yet as vicious as a lions roar.

Qiu Heng could feel the dangerous aura leaking out of Xuan Wanshan, he could tell that she really wanted to tear him to pieces!

S-Senior Xuan, you are mistaken that place is not as wicked as you think---

He was cut off before he could finish again.

Mistaken?! You dare tell me that place is not known for pleasuring men and their lustful desires?! she growled at him.

This little brat dared to bring someone pure like Tian Yi to a place known for prostitution?! How can she stay calm after hearing that--- especially after what he had just told her?!
