The immortal mansion of the Xuan Hua Emperor Lord, Qingxiao, seems particularly peaceful today. The exotic flowers and plants in the courtyard sway gently in the breeze, as if conveying some imperceptible tension.
The Xuan Hua Emperor Lord sits at the rosewood desk in his study, carefully examining a jade hairpin. It is said that this hairpin, obtained recently from an ancient immortal, possesses unimaginable power.
"Master, Master!" Shangguan Yaochi's voice suddenly came from outside the door, breaking the tranquility of the study.
The Xuan Hua Emperor Lord furrowed his brow slightly, set down the jade hairpin, and said slowly, "Come in."
The door was pushed open, and Shangguan Yaochi walked in excitedly, holding a delicate jade box in her hand.
"Master, look at this! This is the elixir I newly refined!" She excitedly opened the jade box, revealing a pill emitting a faint glow inside.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord glanced coldly and said, "Alchemizing elixirs is not child's play. You are wasting materials."
Shangguan Yaochi paused, then pouted unhappily and said, "Master, why are you so strict? I put my heart into it too!"
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord glanced at her and said lightly, "Use your heart? Do you think elixirs are something you can casually explore?"
Shangguan Yaochi was so angry that her face turned red. She stood up suddenly, pointed at Xuan Hua Emperor Lord, and said loudly, "You're always like this, never giving me any encouragement, only coldly criticizing me!"
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord also stood up, his eyes becoming even colder: "Encouragement? What you need is real guidance, not some meaningless encouragement."
Shangguan Yaochi was so angry she almost cried. She angrily threw the jade box in her hand to the ground and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord suddenly spoke.
Shangguan Yaochi stopped in his tracks, but did not turn around.
"Your elixir refining method is incorrect, the heat is insufficient, and the proportion of medicinal materials is also wrong," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord said coldly.
Shangguan Yaochi bit her lip tightly, tears swirling in her eyes.
"If you truly want to become a qualified immortal, you should take every matter seriously, instead of complaining and avoiding." Xuan Hua Emperor Lord continued.
Shangguan Yaochi couldn't help it anymore, tears rolled down, but she didn't speak, just silently walked out.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord Looking at her back, there is also some discomfort in his heart. Perhaps his words were too harsh, but as her Master, he must make her understand the seriousness and difficulty of the immortal path.
He sat back down, picked up the jade hairpin, but his interest in studying it was lost. Suddenly, he realized that, compared to these ancient treasures, he cared more about the mischievous yet vibrant little apprentice in front of him.
"Perhaps I really should adjust my way of teaching her, instead of just criticizing and blaming her," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord thought to himself. He took a deep breath and then picked up the jade hairpin again, but it seemed that he had made a new decision in his heart.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord put down the jade hairpin, stood up, walked out of the study, and came to the courtyard, where he saw Shangguan Yaochi sitting on a stone bench, her head lowered as if lost in thought.
"Yaochi," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord called softly.
Shangguan Yaochi lifted her head, with traces of tears still in her eyes, but she suppressed her emotions and stood up, saying, "Master, what can I do for you?"
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord looked at her, feeling a pang of sorrow in his heart. He walked up to her, with a faint smile on his lips, a rare sight for him.
"Master, I want to tell you that I was a bit excessive just now," he said in a calm tone, but every word was filled with sincerity.
Shangguan Yaochi was taken aback, then her eyes turned red again, and she couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you really not angry with me anymore?"
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord nodded slightly and said, "Cultivating the immortal path, the most important thing is one's state of mind. I was indeed a bit too harsh just now, and it has also affected your state of mind."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yaochi finally couldn't help it and tears streamed down her face. She threw herself into Xuan Hua Emperor Lord's arms and cried bitterly.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord gently patted her back, feeling somewhat moved in his heart. Suddenly, he felt that this little disciple, although mischievous, was an indispensable part of his life.
"Alright, don't cry anymore," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord comforted her softly.
Shangguan Yaochi Wiping away the tears, she looked up at him with gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you, Master, I will be more careful in refining the elixirs in the future."
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord He smiled slightly, and it seemed to brighten up the entire courtyard.
"That's good. Remember, cultivation and alchemy are a long road, and we still have a lot to learn," he said with great seriousness.
Shangguan Yaochi nodded gently, silently vowing to herself that she would work hard to make Master proud.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord looked at her determined eyes and couldn't help but feel some comfort in his heart. He realized that this dispute might actually make their master-disciple relationship even closer.
"Alright, let's stop here for today. You go rest, and we'll continue our training tomorrow," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord finally said.
Shangguan Yaochi revealed a slight smile, nodded in agreement, and then turned and left.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord watched her figure gradually fade away, feeling a hint of satisfaction in his heart. He turned back to his study, once again grasping the jade hairpin in his hand, but his mood at this moment was completely different from before.
In the courtyard, the flowers and trees are in full bloom, exuding a fairy-like atmosphere, as if every flower and leaf is singing the harmony and beauty of the fairyland. Xuan Hua Emperor Lord stands under a Thousand-year-old cassia tree, holding a thick ancient book in his hand, but his gaze is not on the book, but far ahead.
Shangguan Yaochi was sitting on the other side of the courtyard, holding an embroidered ball with a crane and auspicious clouds, playing with it happily. She lightly tossed the ball, and it seemed to come to life, flying into the air and stopping on its own, dancing around her.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord couldn't help but smile as he watched this scene. He set down the ancient book in his hand and walked over to Shangguan Yaochi.
"Yaochi, why are you having so much fun?" A hint of warmth appeared in the expression of Xuan Hua Emperor Lord.
As soon as Shangguan Yaochi saw Master coming, she immediately put away the embroidered ball, stood up, and looked a little shy, saying, "Master, you're here."
"Okay," Xuan Hua Emperor Lord nodded, then gestured towards a nearby stone stool for her to sit.
After they both sat down, Xuan Hua Emperor Lord suddenly took out a small box from his sleeve and handed it to Shangguan Yaochi.
"What's this?" Shangguan Yaochi curiously took the small box and opened it to find a bracelet made of Nine-Colored Fairy Stone.
"This is Nine-Colored Fairy Stone, each with its own purpose. It can help you comprehend the mysteries of the immortal path more quickly in your practice," explained Xuan Hua Emperor Lord.
Shangguan Yaochi lit up at the news and exclaimed happily, "Really? That's great! Thank you, Master!"
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord looked at her joyful expression and felt a warm feeling in his heart. He smiled slightly and said, "No need to thank me, this is also the result of your own efforts."
Shangguan Yaochi After listening, she was even more moved, and couldn't help but walk up to Xuan Hua Emperor Lord and give him a big hug.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord was slightly taken aback, but quickly reacted, gently patting her back and saying, "Alright, don't be so emotional. In cultivating the immortal path, it's most important to maintain calmness and rationality."
Shangguan Yaochi nodded after listening, then retreated to her own position and sat down.
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord looked at her and suddenly felt that this little disciple, although sometimes giving him a headache, always managed to bring him many surprises and joy unintentionally.
"Alright, let's stop the practice here for today. You should rest early too," said the Xuan Hua Emperor Lord.
After hearing this, Shangguan Yaochi smiled and stood up, saying, "Okay, Master. You should rest early too."
Xuan Hua Emperor Lord nodded, then turned and walked away.
Shangguan Yaochi watched his retreating figure, filled with gratitude and admiration. Having such a Master was the greatest fortune of her life.
In the courtyard, under the thousand-year-old cassia tree, the ancient scriptures left by Emperor Xuan Hua still lay there quietly, as if silently witnessing the subtle yet sincere and profound bond between the master and disciple.
