Chapter 78: Who are you?

Chapter 78: Who are you?

*Ssssss*

An imaginary hourglass poured nonstop inside the minds of these Geniuses distracting them from thinking.

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Only three more minutes!!! They were beginning to panic.

What does he really mean by Who are you?!? Is he asking who I am inside my heart? My true nature? Who I want to be? They racked their brains trying to figure out the most profound answer they can possibly think up.

I am Han Yixue, a small voice spoke.

?!?!? The people there were shocked away by such a simple answer.

Someone actually dared to answer with their name! Who is that?! I dont recall anyone with such a name within us! They all thought and looked around.

You

They were all dumbfounded as the blind girl walked towards them.

I am Han Yixue, she repeated and then continued, My mother was Han Ming, and my father is Guo Dai, the current head of the Guo Family. I am 17 Years Old with no remarkable talents. My mother died when I was only 7 Years Old, and before she had died, everybody in the family hated her saying how she was a slut. Yes, my mother used to work as a prostitute, but that did not stop my father from taking her in as his concubine. He said it was because he loved her, and that was all it mattered. However, after my mother had died, he stopped caring about me and even turned a blind eye when the mistress robbed my name that was given to me by my mother--- and after robbing my identity, she robbed my--- my sight, she took a breather.

... The surrounding people looked at her with wide eyes. She had that kind of history?! But they were told that she had her name removed because she had committed a grave crime within the Family. Then what about her sight? Why did they rob that too?

After removing my name and robbing my sights, the mistress spread a rumor that stated it was all punishment for the crime that I had committed. She never mentioned about what the crime I had committed was, but my crime was--- I had eyes that were too beautiful for someone like me, the daughter of a slut to have--- was what she told me. I have never seen my eyes before, but that was the crime I had committed that caused my eyes to be slashed by a sword

..............

The people hearing that could not believe her story! That was the reason why she had her name and sights removed?! All because her eyes were too beautiful for her?! All because of one's Jealousy?!

Sir, I want to study under you not because I want revenge, but because I want to make my mother proud. That is who I am--- Han Yixue, her fists were clenched so tightly that it was bleeding from her nails impaling into her skin!

...

Tian Yi stood there in silent.

So you do have a name after all, he finally said with a gentle smile.

...

Okay, times up. These of you who couldnt answer the question, Im sorry, but it looks like we were never destined to be together as Master and Disciple, Tian Yi began walking towards the exit.

?!?!?!?

The people who could not answer due to Han Yixue taking up all the time had their minds thrown into chaos.

Wait! Huang Li stepped forward and shouted, Thats not fair! She took up all the time, so we couldnt answer even if we wanted to! Senior, how can you---

What Senior?! Do I look like an old man to you?! I am only 18 Years Old! He turned back and yelled louder than usual.

!!! Huang Li took a step back from fright.

Hmph, I gave you so much time, but you couldnt even answer such a simple question, and you have the guts to say it wasnt fair?! He said before turning back around to leave.

..... The crowd was stunned! What simple question?! That was the most profoundly thought up question they have heard of to date!

W-wait! Sir! What about the two of us who answered your question? Who answered it correctly? The first one to answer said anxiously.

Hm? Ah, Ill come by to pick you up later, He answered.

Who? The man asked again.

Who knows. If I dont show up in front of you two by the end of today, then neither of you passed.

*Whoosh*

Senior Cheung, Senior Yuming, Ill head back to the hotel now, Tian Yi took a leap and flew away carrying Meng Xiang.

Yu Yue and Yan Yan also followed.

...... Xuan Cheung and Xuan Yuming stood there with a stupefied face.

So we still dont know if we passed yet?! What the hell! What will I do if you dont show up?! Does that mean I failed?! Fuck! The man cursed inside his heart.

... Han Yixue stood there silently and watched Tian Yi fly away with worrying eyes.

*****

Master! I am back, what did you want to talk to me about? Tian Yi called out after arriving back to the hotel they were staying in.

Im in my room, come in, Xuan Wanshan replied with a soft voice.

Excuse me, He walked in to see her standing near the window watching the sunset with a calm face.

Good, but what do we do about the Master and Disciple ceremony? How does that work? He asked.

S-Since we already did it, we do not have to do it again. Even if we did, only our speaking roles would be changed, she still remembers the feeling of his blood entering her and does not want to have such feelings in such a situation.

I understand. Then lets just do it informally, Tian Yi said.

Un. Xuan Wanshan nodded and stood back up before walking in front of him.

*Thud*

She kowtowed again and said, Disciple Xuan Wanshan, pays respect to her Master!

Tian Yi shivered when she called him Master, but he did not say anything as this is a ceremony.

Un. I, Tian Yi, have received your greetings. Stand up!

Yes, M--- Tian Yi, she stood back up.

Due to this sudden development, both of us will need to time to digest it. Go rest for today; I still have another Disciple to accept today, he sighed before leaving the room in a hurry.

... Xuan Wanshan stood there with a dumbfounded face. He just accepted her as his Disciple, and hes already heading out to pick up another one? Since when did that happen?

Ahhh, what will our future be like after today? She lays down on the bed to digest what had happened today while also preparing herself for the future.

*****

...

...

...

Yu Yue, Yan Yan, and Meng Xiang silently watched as Tian Yi lay face down on the bed.

He has been like this since he came back. What happened to him? Yu Yue was worried.

Its better just to wait it out until hes willing to tell us Yan Yan thought.

Big Brother, did something happen with Sister Xuan Wanshan? Meng Xiang asked him out loud.

!!!!!! Yu Yue and Yan Yan snapped their head at her with shock and disbelief.

She said it! They cried inside their heart.

... Tian Yi continued to lay there silently.

Seeing how he was acting, even Meng Xiang understood that she should leave him alone for now.

Meng Xiang, come over here, my head hurts Tian Yi suddenly called her out.

Coming! She jogged over to where he was laying down.

I feel a sudden urge to hug something, so if you dont mind, can I hug you for a bit? He asked with a muffled voice.

?!?!?!?!?! Yu Yue and Yan Yans jaw dropped.

Meng Xiangs eyes went wide from shock and stood there silently for a minute before answering, Of course! Her eyes had glittered with happiness before she jumped on the bed.

Tian Yi turned sideways to hug her like a pillow and said in a low voice, Meng Xiang, my Master, Xuan Wanshan just disowned me as her Disciple

Huh?!?!?!?!? The three girls could not believe their ears. His Master disowned him?!

Killing intent appeared within Yan Yans eyes, I knew it! To cause so much pain to Master, Ill slaughter you when I get the chance! She thought.

Yan Yan, stop it. She has her reasons, and I cannot say that I do not understand them. It was selfish of me from the start to accept a Mortal as my Master just for experience without taking her feelings into consideration. How would you feel if I asked you to become my Master, Yan Yan? He knew what she was thinking.

T-Thats She could not answer him, but it was not because she didnt know the answer.

Right? Thats how shes feeling right now, so do not blame her. Well, shes my Disciple now, so I cannot let you harm her either way He suddenly said.

WHAT?!?!?!?! They could no longer hold in their shock and cried out.

I know, crazy right? This is why Im having such a headache. Ahhhh, I need to organize myself before accepting my next Disciple He no longer spoke and continued to hug Meng Xiang with his eyes closed.

Yu Yue stood there with an amazed expression, Hes really going to accept a Disciple from them? And to two of them in one day...

.............. Yan Yan was so shocked that she couldnt even think properly.

Hehehe, Meng Xiang giggled inside her heart as she enjoyed being hugged by Tian Yi.

... The room had turned dead silent.
