Sorry but I only accept female disciples!

Zhang Yuan, Ming Yuelin, and Xue Hua quietly made their way down the long, dim corridor towards Long Xue's room.

The door creaked op and the three of them stepped in.

Long Xue who was sitting on the bed talking with her father, turned her gaze to look at the door.

Her bright gre eyes lit up wh she saw Zhang Yuan, the man who had saved her from the terrible illness that had plagued her body for months.

A subtle yet sincere smile curved her lips, and without wasting a momt, she gracefully climbed off the bed.

With light and hurried steps, Long Xue approached Zhang Yuan, her head lowered in a deep and respectful bow. "Please accept my deepest gratitude, Master Yuan," she said, her voice full of reverce.

Looking at her, Zhang Yuan smiled faintly "Glad I could help..."

Long Xue straighted up, her eyes full of admiration and respect for him. "Please, Master Yuan, come in and make yourself comfortable," she said, gesturing with her hand toward the interior of the room.

Zhang Yuan walked toward the bed, intding to sit on the stool beside it. But Long Xue quickly interved, shaking her head with a gtle insistce. "Please," she said, pointing to the bed, "sit here instead."

Not wanting to refuse her hospitality, Zhang Yuan gave her a small nod and sat down on the edge of the bed. Long Xue followed suit, sitting beside him but keeping a polite distance, her posture poised and elegant.

Looking at her, Zhang Yuan asked, "How do you feel right now? Is there any pain in your body?"

Long Yue shook her head and replied with a bright smile on her face "No, Master Yuan... I feel so refreshed after the medicinal bath."

As she spoke, Zhang Yuan reached out to grasp her wrist and feel her heartbeat.

"Hmm.. did you take the pill?"

Long Xue nodded quickly. "Yes, Sister Hua gave it to me earlier," she replied, gesturing toward Xue Hua, who was standing quietly nearby.

Zhang Yuan retracted his hand and looked into her gre eyes "Well, your father must have already told you... the reason for your illness."

Long Xue nodded again, this time more hesitantly, as a trace of unease flickered in her gaze. "Yes," she said softly. "Father told me it was because of my royal demon bloodline awaking."

With a nod, Zhang Yuan replied "Hmm.. I have strgthed your body and reduced the corrosive effects of the royal bloodline over your organs."

"Now your body can withstand the power of the bloodline and you have to take this medicinal bath two more times within the next month."

Long Xue nodded her head in understanding "As you say, Master Yuan..."

Looking into her gre eyes, Zhang Yuan asked "By the way... did you feel any blood lust?"

H-Huh? Hearing the question, Long Xue tak aback and blinked her eyes.

Long Xian was terrified "Master Yuan... what are you asking?"

Zhang Yuan glanced at the Emperor and replied "Yue has royal blood running through her veins, which means she belongs to the Malefic Horde."

"Malefic Horde people are extremely arrogant and have high blood lust towards human flesh..."

Xue Hua who was hearing this sighed in her heart 'But I am from Nyxian Horde... commoner demon, so I don't have blood lust.'

Hearing this Long Xian was dumbfounded and mumbled under his breath "But my wife... never said anything about this."

Zhang Yuan turned his gaze to Long Yue who was trembling "Yue... do you feel anything after seeing us, humans?"

Long Yue hurriedly shook her head "No, Master Yuan... I didn't feel anything like that."

"That's good to hear. It seems that since you're only half-demon, the bloodlust may not be as intse. But we must remain cautious."

"Hmmm..."

With a faint nod, Zhang Yuan continued "Now that your bloodline has be awaked, you have to change your cultivation technique and we also need to mask your demonic ergy."

H-Hm? Long Yue was shocked and hastily asked "T-Th master Yuan... I am like a demon now? I will have to use demonic ergy?"

Zhang Yuan gave a nod and replied "Yeah, never ever show your face in front of the people of Yu Hong holy land."

"They would kill you on the spot if they ssed ev a trace of demonic ergy in your body."

Hearing this, Long Yue's eyes shrunk in fear and Long Xian's eyes trembled as he lowered his gaze.

Zhang Yuan let out a sigh "Well, you don't have to think about it now... All you have to do now is... rest and don't strain your body."

Hearing this, Long Yue smiled gtly and nodded her head "Yes, Master Yuan..."

With that, Zhang Yuan stood up, preparing to leave "Th, I will see you later."

However, before he could take another step, Long Xue hurriedly stood as well, her gre eyes wide with anticipation. "Master Yuan, it's already eving," she began, her voice filled with warmth and a hint of hope.

"Why don't we have some tea together before you go?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan glanced at Ming Yuelin in the corner of his eyes and seeing her smile, he nodded "Ok th..."

Long Xian bowed his head "Th, I will go and ask maids to prepare tea for Master Yuan..."

As he left the room, Zhang Yuan walked to Ming Yuelin and patted her head "Are you hungry, Lin'er..."

Ming Yuelin had a soft smile on her face as she shook her head "No, Master..."she replied hugging him.

With a faint chuckle, Zhang Yuan hugged her back his hand patting her back.

Seeing them, Long Yue blinked her eyes 'I heard they are his disciples.. seems like they are close unlike Sister Hua... who speaks indiffertly...'

Long Yue walked to him and spoke "Follow me, Master Yuan.. we can go to the nearby terrace."

Zhang Yuan gave a slight nod, and together with Ming Yuelin and Xue Hua, they followed Long Xue out of the room. As they stepped into the hallway, Jin Wei and Ch Zin approached from the other direction.

"We heard the princess has made a full recovery," Jin Wei said with a pleasant smile, her eyes lingering on Long Xue with obvious relief.

Seeing them, Long Yue bowed slightly "Yeah, because of Master Yuan... I am alright now."

Jin Wei nodded her head with a smile "That's great to hear..."

"Would you like to join us for tea?"

"Sure..."

Ch Zin, standing quietly beside her, gave a small nod, though her eyes flickered momtarily toward Ming Yuelin.

Ming Yuelin who was hugging Zhang Yuan's arms and feeling her gaze, Ming Yuelin looked back at her, a smug curling on her lips.

'What do you want, bitch?' She snorted, letting out her tongue.

Ch Zin's expression soured slightly, her lips twitching in frustration 'This cunt is annoying as always... I will surely beat you one day...'

Slowly they stepped onto the terrace as the warm glow of the eving sun greeted them.

Feeling the cool air caress her skin, Long Yue closed her eyes in satisfaction 'How many months has it be.. since I got a proper fresh air...'

She sighed in satisfaction, 'I never thought I'd be able to joy the fresh air again...' she thought wistfully, a soft smile playing on her lips.

As she oped her eyes, she glanced at Zhang Yuan who was about to sit on his chair a the table.

Looking at him, her gaze softed and she hurriedly walked to take the seat beside him as Ming Yuelin sat on his other side.

Momts later, two maids arrived with a tea tray, gracefully pouring the fragrant liquid into delicate porcelain cups. The soothing aroma of the tea filled the air, blding with the crisp sct of the eving breeze.

Long Xian joined them on the terrace shortly after, taking his place at the table.

He picked up his cup and sipped the tea slowly, his gaze also wandering toward the view. "The city looks magnifict from here," he commted, as he admired the sight of the sprawling city bathed in the gold hues of twilight.

"Indeed," Zhang Yuan agreed, his eyes skimming the horizon. "It's a beautiful view. Tomorrow we could go out for a bit of sightseeing."

Long Xue's eyes bright up in excitemt upon hearing this "Th... I can also join you."

Jin Wei smiled fondly "Yeah..."

As time passed, they finished their teas and Ch Zin and Jin Wei were the first ones to stand up.

"Th we are leaving... we were training in the training g till now. We will go and continue that."

"Hm... okay..."

As they left, Long Xue who was sitting beside Zhang Yuan felt her body trembling and her gaze quivered.

'H-Huh? What is happing?'

She felt a lump filling her throat and her chest tighted "Urghh..."

Hearing her groan, Zhang Yuan gtly placed a hand on her shoulder "Yue..."

*thud* Long Yue suddly jumped from her seat as she pushed Zhang Yuan off the chair and got on top of him, her gre eyes... now gleaming in red filled with blood lust.
