My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Chapter 319: Gossips in the Sect

Lonemoon set up ten arrays at the practice field at once. They were of different difficulty levels, from easy to hard, including all levels from Qi Refinement to Nascent Soul. It could be said that it was the best place for practicing sword techniques and understanding sword intent.

At first he only set it up for Chef. His sword dharma was self-invented, and he had told Lonemoon before that his sword dharma was figured out gradually through many fights. Chef could remember neither his past nor his sword dharma, but the instinct in his body was still there. Thus, making him remember his sword dharma by fighting inside sword arrays was effective.

And it was proved in practice. After spending more than half a year to break out of the first array, it was as if a switch for sword dharma was switched on, he started to figure out many sword techniques. Seeing that they were exactly the same as the ones he used before, Lonemoon was relieved.

But Lou Tao approached him, and asked if other disciples could be allowed to practice inside, too. Most of Honesty Sect practiced sword cultivation, and to figure out a sword array would be very beneficial to their cultivation indeed. Lonemoon naturally wouldn’t refuse, and disciples flocked over.

For a while, the sword arrays at the practice field became a compulsory part of cultivation in the sect. Chef, unlike others, was born with an Innate Sword Embodiment, so he had to raise the prerequisite for entering the first array to the seventh level of Qi Refinement.

Five years later...

Unknowingly, the little boy had started growing very fast. Although he he still had the youthful look, he had reached the same height of Lonemoon. While he had not yet remembered his past, he was becoming ever more like the quiet, serious personality that he once was.

Only Shen Ying felt that he seemed to go a little awry, especially the talkativeness as a child which had not lessened at all.

“Master, there will be snow today. You’ll need to wear more even with the protection of Dharma clothings.”

“Master, don’t sleep on the table. I’ve made a lounge chair. If you really don’t want to go back inside, go and sit there.”

“Master, it’s better if you don’t drink tea at night, it’s not good for the sleep. What about some Fengyu juice?”

“Master, it is already so late, you can leave the pastry for tomorrow morning. Otherwise you won’t be able to sleep again.”

“Master, you’ve eaten this kind of meat for three days in a row. Isn’t it better to change it?”

He mentioned all matters big and small, that Shen Ying felt like she had a Mother Niu now. But after he kept talking... she got used to it!

╮(╯▽╰)╭

Yet somehow his cultivation didn’t increase significantly in the recent years. He had only perfected Foundation Establishment. It was totally not on the same level as his extremely rapid improvement in the past.

“He probably suppressed his own cultivation, that’s why he never formed a core this whole time.” Lonemoon explained casually. “But this is just as well. Everything before Core Formation was the foundation. It would be better if he proceeds to Core Formation after he’s understood sword intent.

“Oh.” She didn’t understand it.

“Let’s go, the sect master seemed to have looked for us.” Lonemoon pointed at the main peak.

“Ah?” Shen Ying was stunned. “Me?”

“Yes! You’ve stayed here for years, it’s time for you to go out for a walk.” Lonemoon couldn’t stand her idleness and directly dragged her to her feet. “Not only you, Chef too. Since we are going to the main peak, let’s go down to the practice field to look for Chef.”

“That’s so troublesome...”

“What troublesome! Let’s go!” Lonemoon dragged her past the transportation array and they arrived at the practice field.

From far away, they noticed many disciples coming out of the arrays, with excitement, disappointment or doubt on their faces. Some also gathered discussing something.

Lonemoon didn’t pay it much attention at first. In any case, this had become the most frequented place among disciples since the sword arrays were opened. He purposefully restrained his aura to allow them to discuss with peace of mind and got a wave of silent praise for it.

“These sword arrays set up by Supremacy are too powerful. I have been trying for a month but couldn’t enter even the first array.”

“Exactly! They are arrays built by a Soul Formation Supremacy indeed. I heard that even Senior Brother Lou Tao could only reach the fifth one.”

“Wow, Senior Brother Lou Tao is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and he can only reach the fifth level. I don’t know when would anyone be able to break through all ten.”

“That’s needless to ask, of course it would be young Uncle-Master Yi Qing. He’s already reached the eighth level.”

“What? My god, isn’t that the level where only Golden Core masters can enter?”

“What’s this to him? I heard that when he was at Qi Refinement, he had already broken through the first level. He was only ten then!”

“Young Uncle-Master is so good, he’s worthy of being Supremacy Lonemoon’s disciple indeed.”

“Young Uncle-Master is not the disciple of Supremacy Lonemoon! He’s the disciple of the other Soul Formation Supremacy in the sect.”

“Eh? There’s a second Soul Formation Supremacy in the sect.” The disciple was shocked.

“Of course. I heard that she joined the sect together with Supremacy Lonemoon. I think the surname is Shen...” The disciple suddenly remembered something. He lowered his voice and said, “But she never goes out of Invincible Peak. I have joined the sect for so many years but have never seen her.”

Lonemoon gave a disdainful look to the person eating fruit beside him. Not only did she not have a sense of existence, she was also lazy!

“Young Uncle-Master is so powerful, isn’t his master more powerful then?”

Hmm, with this Lonemoon would have to agree. He didn’t intend to continue listening and was about to walk past them.

“You don’t know that.” The disciple suddenly shook his head, and said, in a gossipy way, “Even the sect master had never seen her fight, and nobody knew what her cultivation was like. But young uncle-master had been around her since young. He didn’t start practicing until he was ten. The relation of the two was extremely close, and only two of them lived in the small building on Invincible Peak.”

“Oh!” Something came to the other disciples’ mind, and their faces were filled with surprise, “You mean young uncle-master is actually a... human cauldron?”

Shen Ying, “...”

Pui...

Lonemoon’s expression twisted. He set up an isolating array instantly and burst into laughter, pressing his stomach. “Hahahaha... You can continue to live in isolation! In gossips you are almost becoming a pervert who keeps a boy human cauldron! Hahahaha... This is too funny for me.”

“If that’s so, young uncle-master is too pitiful.” The disciple was indignant. “That Supremacy Shen has gone too far.”

“But who can resist Soul Formation Supremacies? Young uncle-master is practicing so hard, it might be due to his grievances too.”

“”That’s not what I heard.” A disciple suddenly argued, and everyone looked towards him. “Nobody has seen that Supremacy Shen, who knows what’s her true level? But the ability of Supremacy Lonemoon was seen by everyone. I heard that these ten sword arrays were made by him for young uncle-master too. Who can surpass Supremacy Lonemoon in being nice to him?”

“So in my opinion... That Supremacy Shen was just an excuse. The person who is truly interested in young uncle-master should be Supremacy Lonemoon!”

“Oh...” Everyone looked enlightened.

Stiffened Lonemoon, “...”

Shen Ying, “...”

After a while, she silently turned towards the person beside her, “Oh~~~~~” So you are as such, Father Niu!

“What ‘oh’!”

“I didn’t say anything!”

“Take back that look!” He said word by word. “I am straight.”

“Er...”

“If not to take care of you two troublesome things, I would have gotten a girlfriend long ago!”

“Oh~~”

“Shut up!”

“...”
