Chapter 6: Ying Yue (2)
Chapter 6: Ying Yue (2)
If he was being honest, Shen Yu would say Ying Yue was one of the most beautiful women he had seen—well, if he didn't include the original Shen Yu's memories.
She wasn't the tallest, but she stood high enough. She looked adorable with her small face, neck-length smooth, deep black hair, and golden orbs shining in her eyes.
Shen Yu smiled and gestured for her to sit at a table in the same room. He had thought about everything before making the quarters for the disciples, and the rooms included everything.
Ying Yue smiled and took Shen Yu's offer. She also had a lot of questions that she needed answers to. And Shen Yu was probably the only man who could answer her.
'Now that I think about it, this room is crazy. What's with the sick density of Qi? Even while standing, I can feel it circulating in my meridians. What kind of God he is to live in such a place?'
Ying Yue thought, stupified. She couldn't understand what kind of place she had entered after diving into that dangerous Formation. She had never experienced something like this before or even heard of it.
'So that dangerous Formation was actually of this man's sect? What did he call it again? Divine Harem Sect?'
Guessing the purpose of the sect from its name, Ying Yue blushed.
"So, I actually found you unconscious in the periphery of my sect. Those assassins were chasing you, I suppose?"
Shen Yu began the talk by serving Ying Yue a special tea he had obtained from the system like a gentleman.
"Yes, well, due to many things, those guys wanted to kill me, and since I was injured, I couldn't defend myself. They had sneaked upon me when I was vulnerable. That's what Assassins are..."

Ying Yue didn't want to lie to Shen Yu since he was her benefactor, but she also couldn't tell him the whole truth. What would she say? That she used to kill people just because her higher-ups told her to?
Although the world of cultivators was filled with bloodshed, honor and pride were also there. Assassins, being the kind of cultivators who led the path of cowardness, were despised by Cultivators who put their honor and pride above everything else.
That's why Ying Yue decided to hide that fact. She also swore to never lie to Shen Yu. If he asked, she would tell him the truth. Well, she actually doubted that with how powerful Shen Yu was, he wouldn't detect her killing intent, meaning he could already guess something.
In fact, Shen Yu had detected the killing intent of Ying Yue but ignored it. He knew that Ying Yue was an Early Stage Foundation Realm Cultivator, which meant she had to kill her way through that realm. Without killing, it was nearly impossible to ascend in Cultivation realms, so he didn't really care about it.
Besides, Ying Yue had very weak killing intent, even weaker than those assassins.
"I see. Those assassins are actually still trying to escape from my Formation. They would have been dead, but I thought it'd be better for you to check on them first, so I kept them alive."
Shen Yu sipped the tea elegantly and said. He then looked to his left, his gaze piercing through every illusion and even the reality. He looked at the five Assassins who were now in a scorching desert.
Ying Yue was surprised and looked at Shen Yu in amazement. Only now she remembered that terrifying Formation she had entered to kill the Assassins.
'He is too powerful, way too powerful than even that old man of Qing Family.'
Ying Yue came to that conclusion after observing many things, which mainly included the sect itself. The sect was too mysterious and divine for her. With the quantity and density of Qi in the sect, she was sure she would easily reach Nascent Soul Realm even if she didn't work hard. And what kind of being would make and live in such a Heavenly Land?
Only Immortals would live here.
"But why is he living in such a crude place?"
Ying Yue didn't even realize that she had spoken aloud her thoughts.
Shen Yu raised an eyebrow and answered.
"I want to make a sect where I can help unfortunate women. I have already accomplished everything I wanted aside from this."
Ying Yue was stunned, and her cup of tea almost slipped from her hand. She pointed her trembling finger at herself and asked.
"Did I say that aloud?"
"Yes, you did!"
Ying Yue's face burned red in embarrassment as she put her teacup down on the table. She cursed herself.
'Wasn't controlling emotions easy for me? Then why can't I do that with him?'
Shen Yu smiled, looking at Ying Yue as he tried his best not to blush. It was too cute of a sight for him, and he really wished he could squeeze those red cheeks. However, he held back his urges.
But he also made the decision. He would try to get Ying Yue into his sect. Sometimes, first impressions are all one needs to see how a person is, and Shen Yu was confident in his judgment. Ying Yue deserved to be in his sect. As for his harem, that depended on Ying Yue.
Ying Yue soon calmed down and thought about Shen Yu's words.
'So he really is a hidden expert who has reached great heights, and there's nothing more for him to achieve. And maybe something happened in his journey to the top that now he decided to help people? But why only females?'
Ying Yue was confused as she couldn't understand Shen Yu's reason for only taking female disciples. She had thought about the Harem part, but given Shen Yu's Cultivation, many Heavenly Beauties would throw themselves at him, so why was he doing this?
Ying Yue sipped all the tea in her thoughts but only then realized something. She looked at her empty cup in shock and thought.
'The hell! Why do I feel my Cultivation stabilizing after drinking this tea? Does this contain something special?'
Ying Yue really needed to get used to extraordinary things.
