It was afternoon.
Yao Yue was sitting in the palace, reading the Clear Jade Technique and the annotations of the ancestors.
To review the old is to know the new.
She was about to go into seclusion and wanted to see if she could gain any insights from the Bright Jade Technique.
"Master, why are you frowning?”
Su Jue walked into the palace, pretending not to know what Yao Yue was thinking.
Some words couldn't always be kept in their hearts. It was good to say them out loud.
Yao Yue was a person who liked to keep all her worries to herself and always bore all the responsibilities silently.
Yao Yue put down her book and did not reply. She forced a smile and said,""Normally, you only come back at night. Why are you back so early today? What books did you learn in the afternoon?”
Su Jue was only two years old.
She and Lian Xing avoided Su Jue for many things. They didn't want Su Jue to be distracted.
Besides, what use was a child?
Su Jue placed the box on the table beside Yao Yue and said solemnly,"
"Master brought this disciple back to the Shifting Flower Palace and accepted this disciple as his disciple.”
"Master is about to go into seclusion, and I have never repaid you. Coincidentally, I came across something when I was learning medicine and created a new pill formula called the Heavenly Immortal Ointment. After refining it, I came to give it to you.”
"Celestial Ointment? You created a pill recipe?" Although Yao Yue was not proficient in medicine, she understood the difficulty of creating a new recipe.
Even if it was not as good as creating a cultivation technique, it was not much different.
She knew Su Jue very well.
Su would never lie to her about something like this.
It was easy to verify.
"I've arranged my schedule extremely tightly every day because I didn't want you to go to the Hundred Herb Hall to learn medicine. I didn't expect that even so, you would still be able to create a new pill formula.”
When Yao Yue found out that Su Jue went to the Hundred Herb Hall in the afternoon, she wanted to scold him so that he wouldn't be distracted.
At this age, he should practice martial arts and build a good foundation.
The words were on the tip of her tongue.
She suddenly remembered that this was the first time Su Jue had given her a gift. It was his disciple's kind intention. She couldn't help but sigh."Do you know that your second master and I started learning the Bright Jade Technique when we were four years old? I reached the seventh level in fourteen years.”
"According to the records of the Shifting Flower Palace, it would take at least thirty to forty years to reach the seventh level.”
"I've already reached the seventh level for three years. When I just broke through to the grandmaster realm, I thought that I would be able to break through to the great grandmaster realm in a few years at most.”
" It's because in the first twelve years, I was completely focused on my cultivation. However, when I broke through to Grandmaster and began to roam the martial world, I became a mortal. With the troubles and illnesses of others, I could no longer calm down.”
Yao Yue told Su Jue about the advantages of being focused and warned him not to be distracted by mundane matters.
"Disciple understands Master's good intentions."
Su Jue walked to Yao Yue's side and gently massaged her shoulders.
He knew.
The main reason why Yao Yue could not become a martial grandmaster was not because she was used to the cold and deceitful hearts of the people in the martial world, but because of Jiang Feng and Hua Yuenu's betrayal.
Yao Yue treated Hua Yuenu as her sister.
How did it feel to be betrayed by a younger sister?
Su Jue could understand Yao Yue's pain.
"What's the effect of the Heavenly Immortal Ointment?"
Yao Yue had always been picky, but ever since she took Su Jue in as her disciple, she was very satisfied with him in every aspect except for his medical skills. After she made Su Jue understand the importance of concentration, she changed the topic.
" This ointment can remove scars," Su Jue replied." Even scars that have remained for many years can be completely removed.”
"Oh? Remove scars?" Yao Yue frowned.
She wasn't hurt, so why did Su Jue give her such a gift?
Su Jue took a deep breath and said sincerely,""When Master was cooking, I happened to see a red spot on Master's wrist. It should be a scar that has been left behind for many years and can't be cured.”
"Red spots destroy master's beauty."
"Master should have been to the Hundred Herb Hall. Since the Hundred Herb Hall is unable to cure it, disciple wants to learn medicine and create a pill formula to remove scars, making the scar on master's wrist disappear.”
Su Jue pretended not to know the cause of Yao Yue's scar.
How could the Hundred Herb Hall not be able to cure it? It was because Yao Yue had never been to the Hundred Herb Hall, nor had she thought of treating her scars.
This was Yao Yue's punishment for himself.
"So, that's why you're willing to disobey me and learn medicine…"
Yao Yue muttered to herself. She stood rooted to the ground like a statue.
In the past year.
Su Jue insisted on learning medicine.
Because of this, she not only reprimanded Granny Gu, but also fined Granny Gu a year's salary. After reprimanding Su Jue many times without success, she once beat Su Jue in anger.
After the beating, she blamed herself.
Fortunately, Su Jue didn't make a scene or blame her. He kept his distance from her, as if he had forgotten about it.
Ever since Su Jue moved to Bright Moon Palace, she had been extremely strict with him.
She thought Su Jue would hate her even if he didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly.
Not only did Su Jue not hate her, he even learned medicine for her.
Yao Yue was lost in her thoughts. Her limpid eyes flashed with Hua Yuenu's betrayal and Su Jue's gift.
The two formed a stark contrast.
If a child knew how to repay kindness, why would an adult be ungrateful?
Yao Yue's expression was complicated. She was no longer as cold as she usually was. She turned her back to Su Jue, and two drops of tears fell from her eyes and rolled down her cheeks.
Su Jue was thinking for her.
She had never thought about why Su Jue wanted to learn medicine, and why she was so unreasonable as to scold him.
"If that's the case, why didn't you tell me earlier?”
Yao Yue's voice was a little choked.
This was the second time she felt cared for since her master passed away.
The first time was a year ago when he came out of seclusion. Su Jue naively showed off to her that he had learned how to speak and asked her to teach him martial arts.
Both times, it came from Su Jue.
Su Jue pretended not to hear Yao Yue's sobs and said innocently,""Disciple only wanted to give Master a surprise.”
He did not know what Yao Yue was thinking when he made up such a story.
He had given Yao Yue a gift in hopes that she would be able to walk out of her sorrows.
Only by letting it go could he calmly break through to the martial grandmaster realm.
Only when Yao Yue had broken through to the martial grandmaster level could the Shifting Flower Palace survive the crisis and have the time to teach him, take care of him, and care for him.
"Surprise…"
After Yao Yue understood the meaning of the gift, she was indeed surprised and delighted.
She thought it was just an ordinary gift and was going to take it back to her room and put it in the corner. When she heard Su Jue's explanation, she felt complicated and silently opened the box.
The ointment in the brocade box was crystal clear and had a faint fragrance.
Yao Yue instantly understood the value of the ointment when she saw its appearance.
This was the gift that Su Jue had spent a year preparing for her.
In the past year.
She didn't know how many times Su Jue had experimented and practiced in private before he could create a new pill formula and concoct the Heavenly Immortal Ointment. She didn't know how much pain he had to go through to treat her injuries.
Yao Yue silently imagined. She was touched, but her feelings were even more complicated.
If she used the Heavenly Immortal Ointment, it meant that she had let go of what happened two years ago.
If he didn't use it, he would disappoint Su Jue.
