After Chu Xuan figured out why Xiao Yue was afraid of him, he originally wanted to call out to her and tell her that the last time was just a joke.
But then he worried it might backfire. If he were to shout at her, she might get so scared that she'd turn and run away. Then his reputation in the sect might get even worse, and he might even end up with the title of "molester of disciples."
Therefore, Chu Xuan thought better of it, ignoring the little junior sister who was lingering in the woods, closing his eyes to focus on cultivation.
In the end, Xiao Yue didn't have the courage to approach him and speak. She watched covertly for a while, then left.
She didn't come again until half a month later, when Qin Mengyao strode over with her long, white, straight legs, holding Xiao Yue's small hand, face expressionless.
Chu Xuan was somewhat puzzled, wondering what was going on now?
"Senior Sister, what brings you to me?" He didn't panic, after all, he hadn't done anything wrong.
Xiao Yue, on the other hand, was a bit nervous, not daring to meet Chu Xuan's gaze, looking guilty.
Qin Mengyao could no longer keep a straight face, giving him a half-smiling look, "The little girl secretly complained to me, saying that you dislike me?"
Chu Xuan was perplexed, almost displaying a "?" expression.
Xiao Yue quickly raised her head, "I never said Senior Brother dislikes you! What I meant was he doesn't like you."
"Isn't that the same?" Qin Mengyao retorted.
"How is that the same?" Xiao Yue said, puffing her cheeks, "What I meant by like is the kind between a man and a woman."
"Senior Brother not liking you doesn't mean he dislikes you; more likely, he just feels nothing towards you."
"Oh~" Qin Mengyao responded with a long 'Oh,' then looked at Chu Xuan, "Junior Brother, is it true?"
Chu Xuan was speechless, "When have I ever said anything like that?"
Xiao Yue became anxious, "But when I asked you, you shook your head; shaking your head means dislike, doesn't it?"
"Isn't it possible that I found the question a bit dull, so I didn't want to answer?" Chu Xuan earnestly looked at her.
Xiao Yue was on the verge of tears, "You should have said so earlier."
Qin Mengyao finally couldn't help but laugh, "Alright, alright, let this slide for now. Little girl, remember the lesson, don't go around asking if people like me."
"Or else, be careful I'll hang you on the sect's gate and have everyone come and see you."
Xiao Yue shivered in fear, quickly nodding.
However, just as Qin Mengyao was about to say goodbye to her junior brother, Xiao Yue couldn't help but quietly ask, "Senior Sister, do you like Senior Brother?"
Of course, Chu Xuan heard this; he truly felt this child needed a scolding.
Unexpectedly, Qin Mengyao answered boldly, "I treat him like a little brother, understand?"
"In the future, if you dare ask whether I like anyone, be careful, I'll spank you so hard your butt blossoms."
Xiao Yue shrank back in fear, timidly saying, "I understand."
Then she struggled to free herself from Qin Mengyao's hand, "Senior Sister, you should go back first. I have some cultivation questions to consult with Senior Brother."
Qin Mengyao gave her a suspicious look, knowing she was lying, but still shook her head, "I have to practice my sword skills, no time to deal with you, take care of yourself."
After watching Senior Sister's figure disappear into the distance, Xiao Yue finally let out a sigh of relief.
Then she mustered up her courage, raised her head, and looked at Chu Xuan, softly saying, "I'll keep your secret safe."
Chu Xuan was full of confusion, a secret? What secret?
"I won't discriminate against you either." Saying this, Xiao Yue's face blushed a little.
"Goodbye!" She said, and then ran away like a flash.
Not until her figure completely disappeared did Chu Xuan come to his senses.
Xiao Yue believed he was from the Hehuan Sect, but she hadn't told anyone, just kept it secretly in her heart.
As for "discrimination," it's well known that the Hehuan Sect is dominated by female cultivators, and men are treated miserably there.
Xiao Yue may have fantasized about a drama: Chu Xuan was originally a "furnace" for a female cultivator but failed to serve her well, got his cultivation destroyed, and was expelled from the sect.
This could explain why Chu Xuan looked so sad, because he had suffered inhumane torment in the past.
Therefore, in Xiao Yue's heart, she just thought Chu Xuan was pitiful, and felt guilty for revealing his wounds last time, so she dared not come and see him again.
Having figured this part out, Chu Xuan couldn't help but be speechless.
Forget it, he shook his head, let the misunderstanding be.
Otherwise, given this little girl's strong curiosity, if you tell her the last time was nonsense, she'll inevitably ask you again: "Which sect are you from?"
-------------------
Needless to say, Xiao Yue's attempts at "comforting" have indeed improved Chu Xuan's mood quite a bit.
Now, he feels he can stand reasonably calmly, from an objective perspective, to reflect on past issues.
Therefore, he closed his eyes and sent his Divine Sense into the Sea of Consciousness.
Here is a triangular-shaped black flag, with six flag tails gently fluttering below, looking incredibly mysterious.
That's right, the Six Souls Banner.
Since it entered Chu Xuan's body, it has stayed quietly in this position, rather than being in the Dantian like other life-bound treasures, receiving Magical Power nurturing.
Chu Xuan can sense the incredibly close connection between himself and it, not needing any refinement to communicate seamlessly.
But the problem is, Chu Xuan can't command it.
He guessed it might be due to insufficient Magical Power, after all, the higher the tier of the treasure, the more it consumes in use.
Sometimes, major sects and high-level cultivators have to refine some "secret treasures" with limited usage to provide some safety guarantees for junior disciples going on expeditions.
Secret treasures have the benefits of great power and low consumption, but their downside is that they can only be used one to three times.
And in terms of materials, skimping cannot be an option; the more powerful the treasure is intended to be, the more valuable refining materials are necessary, essentially making it a rich-game style, so secret treasures are few in number.
The magic weapon Chu Xuan currently possesses, besides the Six Souls Banner, only includes two: one is the White Jade Sword, the other is the Storage Bracelet.
The former was exchanged with the Jade Bracelet given by Lady Baihua, which at least was a treasure of [Superior Mystic Tier], but the Jade Sword was only [Superior Yellow Tier], apparently a major loss for Chu Xuan.
It's not that Ji Mingyu deliberately tricked his apprentice, as due to the level of cultivation, during the Qi Cultivation Stage, he couldn't activate treasures for attack at all, and in the Foundation Establishment Stage, could only activate those at the Yellow Tier.
At least this White Jade Sword, among treasures of its tier, its power is quite impressive.
Also, after accepting him as a disciple, Ji Mingyu gave Chu Xuan a Storage Bracelet.
Though it is also of the Superior Yellow Tier, belonging to spatial magic items, its value is even higher than ordinary Mystic Tier treasures, generally unaffordable for regular cultivators.
Getting back to the point, Chu Xuan guessed that the Six Souls Banner is at least a Celestial Tier supreme treasure, and it requires reaching the fourth realm, Nascent Soul Stage, to barely use it, so not being able to command it now is understandable.
