Chapter 51 - 51

Chapter 51 Elder Fang, does he have a hidden illness?

However, when she turned around, she saw Yunxi standing there with a smile on her face.

"Junior Sister Lanyue, you draw so well! You're the best artist I've ever seen!" Yunxi exclaimed, her eyes filled with admiration.

As expected of Junior Sister Lan Yue, she only entered the Array Pavilion yesterday, and today she has already drawn such a perfect array diagram!

Lan Yue blushed as she was looked at with such admiration.

"It's nothing, it's no big deal!"

"By the way, yesterday…" Lan Yue was about to ask about the male lead from yesterday when she saw a small yellow ball hanging motionless on Yun Xi's waist, like a corpse.

It wasn't that Lan Yue was too surprised, but rather that this little yellow fur ball only had one paw tied to it, with its whole body hanging off it, making it look like a fluffy pendant.

[Lan Yue: Oh my god, the male lead, when did he get so miserable? What exactly happened to him?]

Yunxi, who was on the other side, then realized what was happening and quickly tucked the little dumpling into her waistband.

"Junior Sister Lanyue, I don't know what happened, this little black and yellow dumpling suddenly changed color last night. I was just about to ask Elder Fang to take a look, maybe he knows the reason."

In fact, Yunxi had no intention of asking about it at all, but Lanyue brought it up, so she had no choice but to take out the little yellow fluffy ball again.

"Shall we go ask him together?" Lan Yue wasn't quite sure why the male lead's expression had suddenly changed. After all, she had read the original novel too quickly and hadn't noticed some of the details.

Who would scrutinize every single detail of a multi-million-word cultivation novel?

The two arrived at the alchemy pavilion, where Fang Ding had been waiting for quite some time.

However, when he saw Lan Yue's figure, his expression froze.

"Elder Fang, did you not sleep well? Why does your face look a little pale?" Lan Yue looked over curiously.

Fang Ding: "..."

What could he say? Could he possibly say he was afraid Lan Yue would expose him in public, and then the entire sect would come and laugh at him?

"It's nothing, just a slight mishap during cultivation, it'll be fine soon." Fang Ding shook his head repeatedly. He didn't dare to say more than a few words to Lan Yue now, for fear of arousing her curiosity.

After taking the little yellow dumpling from Yunxi's hand, he glanced at it carefully.

"It's alright, it's probably just molting!" Fang Ding said confidently.

"I see!" Yunxi suddenly realized, and she was about to hang the fluffy ball back on her waist.

Lan Yue, standing beside her, seemed lost in thought.

[Lan Yue: Wait, did Elder Fang run into some trouble during his cultivation? Could it be some hidden ailment? Should I use the system to take a look and give him a heads-up?]

Fang Ding on the opposite side: "!!!!"

His face instantly contorted with terror, and he was filled with remorse.

Why didn't you think carefully when you were making excuses? Now you're doomed, Lan Yue is going to have to eat her own melon!

[Lan Yue: Wow, Elder Fang is in great health! He doesn't have any hidden ailments at all; he's in excellent physical condition.]

Fang Ding on the other side breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness!

[Lan Yue: But why did the elder lie to me? Could it be...?]

Fang Ding across from him raised his voice again, his heart pounding.

Could it be something? Could it be that they discovered what he did before?

He really didn't mean it! His good friend mistook him for someone else...

[Lan Yue: Could it be that they recognized the male lead's identity? That's quite possible. Although the male lead is well-hidden, there are always some people with sharp eyes who might have noticed.]

Elder Fang on the other side breathed a sigh of relief again. He had been drenched in a cold sweat and now felt like his entire back was sticky!

Sure enough, you can't do anything wrong! That's why it's come knocking on your door.

Fortunately, Lan Yue wasn't very curious, and luckily the male lead next to her had drawn her attention, otherwise he would have been in big trouble!

[Lan Yue: Hmm, but there seems to be a new melon next to Elder Fang, a round and very tempting new melon! Hehe, then I won't be polite...]

"Lan Yue, what are you doing here? Have you finished drawing the array?" Elder Duanmu's voice came from the side. He walked in step by step from outside, his gaze serious.

Lan Yue, who had just been secretly extending her little paw, was startled and quickly stood at attention.

"Elder Duanmu, I've finished drawing it!"

"Alright, come with me then, I'll give you a check-up." Duanmu glanced inside and quickly walked out.

Lan Yue didn't dare to resist at all, and slunk away with Yin Xue and Xiao Guo in her arms.

Before leaving, she waved to Yunxi, "Let's meet again after school!"

Yunxi waved to her, but the thing hanging on her hand looked like a small yellow fluffy ball.

Lan Yue scratched her head in confusion. Was this how the male and female protagonists interacted in the early stages of the original work?

Unfortunately, she watched it too quickly and only remembered what happened when the male and female protagonists first met; she couldn't remember anything after that.

Perhaps that's really how they get along. After all, her daughter is so kind-hearted, how could she possibly have other thoughts?

As Lan Yue walked back to the Array Pavilion, she originally wanted to take this opportunity to secretly watch the show, but she didn't expect to be watched by Elder Duanmu, who demonstrated the array again and again in front of everyone.

They claim that you'll get used to it after practicing a few more times.

The demonstration of the formation wasn't the end of it; she was also forced to memorize the basic theories of formations.

After we finished learning part of the theory, Elder Duanmu found sheets of paper from somewhere, covered with questions, comparable to the stacks of test papers that teachers hand out during the seven-day National Day holiday.

Lan Yue's pupils trembled. So the cultivation world is this intense too? These top students never rest; do they do so many problems just to learn formations?

I never imagined she would have to go through three years of college entrance exams and five years of mock exams again?

Lan Yue was practically spitting blood. If she had known about the four arts of cultivation, she wouldn't have chosen any of them. She could have just stayed in her tortoise shell, basking in the sun on Lingyue Peak!

Damn it, it's too late for her to regret it now, because all those questions have been piled on top of her.

"I thought about it carefully yesterday, and I think your talent is quite good. If you want to master formations, you still need a lot of practice."

"Although you have studied the basic theory of formations before, that is only the most basic thing and it is easy to confuse it with other theories."

"These questions will help you absorb the information better. Hand them to me when you come tomorrow. Don't try to take any shortcuts. I can tell at a glance whether you drew the formation yourself or not."

Elder Duanmu had a dignified gaze, and his sharply defined chin gave off a cold feeling.

This angle makes him look just like my homeroom teacher from back then.

Lan Yue cried in her heart, overwhelmed with grief.
