Personal Servant

Inside the bathroom, Xuan Wanshan finally finishes taking her

bath, drying herself with Spirit Power, she puts back on her

clothes and walks outside feeling refreshed.

She walks into the living room, to find her new disciple

kowtowing on the floor, facing towards her.

"What is he doing?" She is confused at his actions. Why is he

kowtowing again?

"Tian Yi, What are you doing on the floor?" She notices his

body tremble a bit when she called out to him, making her

even more confused. She had no idea that her new disciple had

actually just spied on her taking a bath.

"Master! I am sorry!" He apologizes loudly.

"Sorry? For what?" She wonders what he did this time now.

"For looking at you!" He said.

"Looking at me?" What's wrong with looking at her?

"I wanted to look for Master because I had something to tell

you, so I used my Divine Sense to look for you! I did not

know you were taking a bath and I accidently saw it!"

He told the truth! So what if she did not know? With his

personality, how can he hide something as shameless as spying

on her bathing? He did not do it on purpose, so why try to

cover up this guilt, making him feel even more guilty?

"...." She turns speechless! He accidentally saw her bath

with his Divine Sense? As a Spirit King, how come, she did

not notice it?

"Don't worry Master; it was only for a split second before

taking it back!" He tells her the truth, hoping she will not be as

angry.

"Well it was only an accident, and he had no malicious

intentions." She thought about forgiving him.

"Wait! If he can use his Divine Sense without me even

noticing, then what about last night?!?!?" Her heart starts

beating faster! She did not really care about this little incident,

he did it on accident, and he even told her the truth, which

made her happy. But her little play last night was a whole

different story! If he saw that, she will probably kill herself

from embarrassment!

Noticing that his Master was not answering, his back starts to

sweat, "Is she really that angry?" He thought.

"Master! I will accept any punishment you give me! Just

because I did it accidentally does not make me innocent!" He

will not run away from his accidental crime because it was still

a crime at the end! Instead, he will accept her punishment!

"Wait, you only saw me taking a bath and nothing else,

correct?" She wants to be sure!

"Yes! And I am ashamed of that!"

"Then what about last night?" She wants to double check!

"Last night? I went straight to sleep after going back to my

room." Why is she asking about last night? Did she also took a

bath last night?

"So you really didn't see anything last night? You promise?"

From his current actions, she can tell that he has a very honest

and brave character. If he promises something, she is positive

that he will not break it!

"I promise!" He promises that he did not see her bath last

night.

"Thank God he did not see that! It looks like I have to make

stealth formations every time I do something private, just in

case of something like this happens again…" She feels

relieved.

"Good, then I will not blame you for this little incident. You

did it by accident, and you even did the right thing by telling

me the truth instead of hiding it. I like this courage and

honesty of yours, so make sure to keep it like this and do not

disappoint me!" Instead of blaming him, she commends him

for his actions!

"Thank you, Master, I will make sure this will not happen

again!" A bit surprised, he thanked her.

He did not think that she will not blame him and even praised

him. Looks like he did the right thing by telling her the truth.

"Un. Now that's out of the way, what did you want to tell

me?" She remembers him saying that he had something else to

say. She also intends to change this embarrassing topic.

"Ah, that's right." He stands back up and looks at her

seriously.

She starts to feel nervous from his stare. Although he looks

normal now, She can't help but overlap him with his real

appearance.

"Master, you promised that you would never abandon me,

correct?" He asks.

"That's it?" She did not expect this question. Is he still afraid

that she will break her promise and abandon him?

"Of course. Once I promise someone something, I will never

break it! I take promises very seriously; you should keep that

in mind." Like Tian Yi, she also takes promises very seriously.

"Good, then I will also promise you something. I also take my

promises very seriously, so I will not be breaking it!" He also

wants her to know that he takes them very seriously.

"Good, as expected from my disciple!" She nods in approval.

She likes this new disciple of hers more and more.

"Go ahead and tell me what you want to." She waits for his

promise.

"Then—…." He stops suddenly like he just realized

something.

* * * * *

Tian Yi had something he wanted to say, but after this

incident, he just realizes something. He has always been

looking at her as his Master, forgetting that she was also a

female! For most of his life, he has only been around his

Mother, the only mature female in his life. But now he has

another woman in his life, excluding Meng Xiang because she

is still a little kid. His Master is also a matured woman, so he

instinctively treats her like his mother. But after this incident,

he finally realizes that he is not used to females at all! He

treats Meng Xiang like a family member, Xiao Ying and Chan

Jingyi were also beautiful females, but he did not think of

them as actually females, but just Mortal Humans.

His views on females are extremely limited! Not even actually

thinking about this until after seeing his Master's naked body!

The longer he stays with her, the more he will learn about the

opposite sex, also treating her as such. And once Meng Xiang

grows up, he will also have to see her as the opposite sex, and

not just a family member.

Although he did not know much about the opposite sex, it did

not mean he had no idea! He had this one friend back at home

who would always teach him about these things…

"Ah, I wonder how he's doing right now? He's probably mad

that I left without telling him. It would've been nice if he was

also here with me." He thinks back to the only one he can

really call a friend. They would both sneak out and meet in the

Forest of Heavenly Beasts. Because his parents did not teach

him about mature things, he would ask his only friend, who

was surprising knowledgeable about females and such.

With an uneasy expression on his face, he stares at his Master,

making her feel uncomfortable.

He opens his mouth to talk, "Master, are you willing to—- No,

this is not right." But stops after a few words. Shaking his

head, he sighs.

"What's not right?" She asks him, feeling even more uneasy.

"Master, forget about this for now. It is still too early to ask

you this, so I'll ask you again later." He was just about to do

something really selfish, even by his standards. He really

wants to stay with his Master forever. However, it is still too

early for him to ask her for answers, especially after realizing

the previous matter.

Yes, she might have promised him that she will stay with him

forever, but she is still a Mortal, in the end, not to mention that

their relationship as Master and Disciple has just started! With

their unstable relationship and her current pressure, it is

unnecessary to pressure her even more with something so big.

Will she actually never abandon him? Will she really be able

to withstand the pressure on her, after knowing his real

background? Will she still think the same way now in the

future? He thinks what is good for her, not as his Master, but

as a Mortal first. He admits that he has been too impatient,

almost rushing into a cave with no return. He was thinking

way too far ahead and almost did what might potentially break

her apart, with no way to recover.

"..." She was speechless! He made it seem so important,

even making her nervous, yet he said to forget it?! Now she

will have one more worry in her heart!

"Fine, I'll not force you. I will wait for the day when you feel

that it's the right time to tell me." She did not want to force

him, afraid of repeating what happened last night. If he were

not willing to tell her his background, she would wait until he

is. Is he feels that it is not the right time, then she will wait for

that right time.

"Thank you, Master, for understanding." He bows.

"Okay, now I have something to tell you." She changes the

topic.

"I am all ears." He waits for her to speak.

"There are disciples out there asking to challenge you, what

will you do?" She mentions about the disciples challenging

him.

"Challenge me? Why?" He asks.

"I don't know, but it's definitely not something good." She can

tell from the challenger's negative aura and the surrounding

disciples watching.

"Do I have to accept it?" He does not want to spar with a

Mortal. Won't he just be bullying them?

"No, you can refuse if you want, but you might get ridiculed."

You can decline the challenge, but you will have to prepare for

getting ridiculed.

"Then I'll decline. I don't care if they curse at me, as long as

they don't go too far, I'll ignore them." Why will he agree to

beat on Mortals? So what if they curse at him? He is not some

Mortal who gets angry at every little thing, but the son of the

Celestial Emperor! He does not have the same temperament as

Mortals, so he will not lose his temper like Mortals! Although

there are things that will upset him, it is not something small

like harassment. He also thinks about things differently,

looking at every angle he can think of.

"Are you sure? You can just beat them up and make them go

away. Leaving them alone will just make it worse, never

leaving you alone." She worries for her disciple. She did not

want to see him being harassed by other disciples. She can use

fear to stop them, but as a Teacher, she has to be reasonable at

some things.

"Master, not everything in this World can be solved with

violence. So what if I beat them up? Will it affect me more

positively than to leave them alone? They might not show it,

but they will still curse me in their heart. I rather have them

show it than to hide it inside their heart, making their soul

even more ugly. Master, would you rather have someone show

you their betrayal upfront, or have them backstab you in the

dark?" His voice was calm, yet authoritative, almost like an

Emperor talking to his subjects.

"I rather have them curse me up front knowing they hate me

than to stand next to someone not even knowing they were

thinking of stabbing me. Because when that time comes, it will

definitely be more painful than the physical wound." He looks

at his Master's shocked face.

"..." She was shocked speechless by his speech! Is this how

he really thinks? This is the way an Emperor thinks! Rather

having betrayal upfront, making it feel less painful than

backstabbing! Ordinary people will not think so deep about

her little suggestion, but an Emperor thinks for not only

himself but his people as well!

Her heart beats faster and faster, attracted by the way he

thinks, attracted by this grand Character of his!

Most Women were attracted to strong men, especially

Cultivators. Compared to their strength, their faces did not

matter that much. As a matter of fact, their looks did not even

rank in second, but close to the last place!

She was surprised by her disciple's discipline! He had a

vigorous and honest heart, an imposing, yet heroic aura, and

the mindset of a high-quality Emperor! Not even mentioning

his face and his Cultivation at his age, his other qualities were

already enough to make females fight for him! He was honest,

so you will not have to worry about being betrayed! The way

he thinks, ensuring that he will lead you properly! Such a

Noble Character and she is the Master of such an outstanding

young man?!

"Un. You're right. I just did something a Master should never

have, almost corrupting their disciples with their own wrong

thinking! I will try to change the way I think about things."

She said honestly, making Tian Yi surprised.

"No. Master is fine the way she is; you don't have to change

the way you think for me." If she changes the way she thinks,

won't her personality also change as a whole? He only said

what he was thinking, not trying to change the way she

thinks…

"No, I have to. If my disciple is this outstanding, as the

Master, I also have to be outstanding, if not more! So lecture

me again when I make bad suggestions." If the Master were

trash, the disciple would also be affected! This is how many

disciples become corrupted because their Master was already

corrupted, teaching them wrong!

"….." He did not know what to say. Was he suppose to teach

her or the other way around? Is she not the Master, with him as

the disciple?

* * * * *

"Now onto the next thing, what will you do as a disciple? Not

as mine, but the Sects. As long as you're in this Sect, you're

also a disciple of the Sect." Just because you accept a Master

did not mean you will not longer be a disciple of the Sects!

"I am interested in Sect Missions so that I will be doing these."

He heard about this from Chan Jingyi and Qiu Heng.

"Sect Missions? You can go to the Sect Mission Hall to accept

Missions. Do you want to go today?" Every disciple is

required to do one at least once a month. It did not matter if it

was a moderate difficulty one, like picking up herbs, as long as

they do one per month, it was good. If you don't, you'll be

punished by the Disciplinary Hall. They mostly dealt with

small problems like this, leaving the bigger ones to the Law

Enforcement Hall. This way, the Sect will earn more

popularity and credibility, making them more trustworthy to

the community.

"Okay, we'll go after Meng Xiang wakes up." He agrees.

"Meng Xiang? That little girl in the other room? Who is she to

you?" She was already aware of this little girl sleeping in the

other room, but she did not bother her. She looks like a noble,

so probably his little sister.

"That's my personal servant." He answers calmly.

"P-personal Servant?!" She was shocked! She did not believe

her honest disciple had a dark side like this! What did it mean

to have a personal servant, and a little girl at that? To Mortals,

a personal servant is essentially a servant used for relieving

their stress, meaning a servant used for sexual purposes! But

she does not believe that her disciple was this kind of man!

"What does she do as a servant?" She asks him, trusting that

he will give a good answer.

"She's supposed to serve me tea, but she's still too young at

this moment, so I'll teach her as she grows up. She treats me

like her Big Brother too, which I don't mind at all. Ah, I also

have another servant named Lao Bai, but he's not here right

now." He tells her about his servants.

"Ah, is that so. That's good then. But start using the word Tea

Servant instead of a personal servant from now on, it'll just

cause unnecessary misunderstandings." She did not want other

people to mistake her disciple as a creepy pervert, not knowing

it was already too late.

"I understand." He did not know why, but he still nods. To be a

Personal Servant for him is an incredibly grand status, even

above Gods. At least that's how people sees it back at home.

"Master, can you teach me more about the Mortals Realm

while we wait?" He still has a lot to learn about this world.

"Hm? Oh right, you said you're from the Higher Realm. Sure,

sit down." She almost forgot that he was from the higher

Realm. As for which Realm it was, she does not know, nor did

she care.

"Yes, Master!"

They both sit down next to each other on the couch in the

living room. He can even smell a sweet fragrance from his

Master, after just coming out of the bath.
