Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I hope Young Master An can officially take Ninth Sister in as a disciple and teach her painting.”

Outside the window, the sunset clouds shattered. The cold moonlight sprinkled down like a gauze, illuminating the Matriarch. The old man’s eyes were filled with worry as he planned his funeral.

After a long time, An Le cupped his fists and bowed. “Alright.”

Under the moonlight, the Matriarch beamed with joy. It could be considered that she had resolved a matter that was not a big deal.

After leaving Heavenly Wave Pavilion, An Le turned around and looked at the luxurious octagonal heavy eaves and dripping water pavilion.

In front of the window of the pavilion, a hunched figure could be vaguely seen nodding at him.

The conversation with Matriarch Yu this time was rather unexpected. An Le also knew a little about the Lin Residence and knew about the storm in the Hall Examination.

He originally thought that the Matriarch wanted him to contribute in the Palace Examination, but he never expected… that the Matriarch wanted him to officially take in Ninth Sister Lin as his disciple and teach her painting skills.

Even though Ninth Sister Lin kept calling him teacher, they were not really master and disciple. Once they became master and disciple, the meaning would be different.

Stepping on the cold moonlight, just as he left the residence, a figure suddenly appeared and tore through the air.

Madam Hua was dressed in a black gauze that outlined her graceful figure. There was a beautiful small sword at her waist, and she looked a little travel-worn. Perhaps she had rushed back after knowing that the Matriarch had seen An Le.

“Greetings, First Madam.” Ji Ying hurriedly bowed and tactfully left. Madam Hua’s gaze landed on An Le. “The Matriarch wanted to see you?”

“What did you talk about?”

“We chatted about some family matters and cultivation experience. Finally, the Matriarch wanted me to take Miss Qingyin in as my disciple and officially teach her drawing skills.”

“I agree,” An Le said.

Madam Hua’s exquisite and beautiful face immediately revealed a hint of shock. “That’s all?”

“That’s all.” An Le smiled.

Madam Hua was deep in thought. Her eyes, which seemed to reflect the blue waves, lit up slightly. She looked at the octagonal Heavenly Wave Pavilion with a hint of gentleness in her eyes.

“One is ink bamboo, and the other is galloping horse. You’re already famous in

Lin’an. It’s considered lucky for Qingyin to be under your name.”

“The Spring Quarter Examination is imminent. Study hard.” Madam Hua reminded.

An Le cupped his fists and bowed with a solemn expression.

Then, he turned around and left. His white clothes danced in the moonlight. Green Mountain and Ink Pool Sword complemented the young man’s carefree and elegant temperament.

She watched the young man’s back disappear into the night of Jing Street.

Madam Hua returned to the residence and looked at the Heavenly Wave Pavilion, her gaze becoming gentler and denser.

The Matriarch respected her thoughts and did not make things difficult for him by requesting An Le to fight for Storm Calming and get involved in their family matters.

However, she was optimistic about An Le’s future and wanted Qingyin to acknowledge An Le as her master.

Under the moonlight, the ripples were clear and calm, and the sound of flutes came often at night.

Madam Hua walked to the side of the Water Pavilion pool and looked at the reflection. She could not help but sigh softly. There was a hint of worry between her eyebrows, and a few wisps of murderous aura added.

An Le left the Lin Residence and went to the shop in Yanchun to buy wine as usual. It was late at night, but the tavern was rather noisy. The customers drank heartily and laughed.

When the female shopkeeper saw An Le, she smiled and chatted with him while pouring wine for him. For the sake of his looks, she even gave an extra scoop.

An Le smiled and paid. He carried the old yellow wine and left. Then, he went to Ding Ya Alley and cut a catty of beef before returning to the courtyard of Imperial Ancestral Temple Alley.

The old man walked over on the moon with a bamboo cane and arrived as promised. The two of them drank wine and ate meat while chatting.

An Le chatted with the old man about the Matriarch meeting him today.

The old man drank a cup of warm yellow wine, and ripples appeared in his eyes.

“Matriarch Yu has great character. Back then, she personally took charge of the commander-in-chief and severely injured the West Liang Army that was about to invade the south. Her might is unparalleled, and she is not inferior to men.” “But she can’t win against time in the end.” The elder sighed softly.

“The royal family didn’t handle this matter well enough. Storm Calming is the personal saber of the Eldest Son of Lin. Although it was given out from the royal family’s Dharma treasure vault, it’s Brother Lin’s relic after all. It should belong to the Lin Residence.”

“That old man Qin Lishi was involved in this matter, but it was ultimately a farce caused by that person from the Heavenly Profound Palace.”

“Ever since the south migration, it had not felt strange even if this old man did any ridiculous things.”

The old man’s tone was filled with dissatisfaction with the person from the Heavenly Profound Palace, and even extreme displeasure.

The old man didn’t continue talking about this. He got An Le to use the Lyrical Three Swords in the courtyard to see how well he had grasped it and give him some pointers on his shortcomings.

An Le picked up Green Mountain and started dancing with his sword in the courtyard.

The 20 wisps of Age Qi that he had just obtained today were all added to the [Thousand-year Genius] Dao Fruit column, allowing it to reach 57 wisps, causing An Le’s comprehension to increase further.

The sparkling jade qi merged, and a deep sword light shook.

In the small courtyard, accompanied by the sound of the old man drinking and pointing, the young man danced with his sword. Sword qi crisscrossed and the sword light was cold.

In the Demon Tempering Treasure Jade, demon qi spread out, wrapping around his body and tempering it, causing An Le’s Ancient Demon Five Animals to improve even more.

Qi Blood surged like waves crashing into the river.

The demon tiger, ferocious bear, demon ape, and other ancient demon phenomena became more and more oppressive.

After ending the practice of the Ancient Demon Five Animals, An Le cultivated and studied Sword Qi Draws Near. His mental power sank into the Little Sacred Token to observe and comprehend the Sword Qi Draws Near technique.

The secrets recorded in this Little Sacred Token were rather profound, enough for An Le to ponder over for a long time.

When the warm sun broke through the spring and scattered on the ground, An Le stood up, changed into a clean set of clothes, and prepared to leave the small courtyard.

The Green Mountain and Ink Pool Sword was on his waist. He held a book in his hand and studied it as he went out as usual..
