Battle Through the Heavens: Beauties Abound Starting with Yunlan and Her Disciples

189: Section 189She looked steadily at Yun Xiancheng, her eyes filled with a trace of inquiry, a trace of hurt, and even more uncertainty. ”Does Disciple think... Master is important?”

She parted her vermilion lips slightly. Her voice remained cool and aloof, yet it carried a faint, imperceptible tremor, like a leaf drifting in the wind—fragile and helpless. This question was less of an inquiry and more of a self-interrogation, a doubt regarding her own worth.

Yun Xiancheng’s body jolted as if struck by thunder. Seeing the Medicine Lady reveal such a fragile appearance, his heart beat rapidly, giving rise to endless feelings of pity and affection.

Although she did not say it, Yun Xiancheng knew deep down that the Medicine Lady had likely been betrayed by her first Disciple, Han Feng, which led to her current state.

He understood that what the Medicine Lady truly wanted to ask was not merely about being ”important,” but something deeper—whether she was worthy of being loved, worthy of being cherished, and whether... she would not be abandoned again.

Isn’t that obvious?

He hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on one knee before the Lotus Platform, and looked up at the Medicine Lady. His gaze was sincere and earnest, his tone firm and gentle: ”Master, in this Disciple’s heart, you are irreplaceable and incomparable to anyone else.”

”You are not only my benevolent mentor and the guide who taught me the art of alchemy, but you are also... the person this Disciple cherishes and admires the most.”

Hearing Yun Xiancheng’s flattery, the Medicine Lady couldn’t help but shake her head: ”Smooth-talker. You, my little Disciple, do you think I don’t understand you?”

To put the Medicine Lady more at ease, Yun Xiancheng slowly reached out and carefully grasped her icy fingers, attempting to use the warmth of his palm to dispel the chill at her fingertips.

His gaze was gentle and focused, as if he wanted to convey his sincere feelings from within his heart through his eyes. ”Everything this Disciple has said... is the truth.”

The Medicine Lady looked into his eyes—his eyes were as brilliant as the starry sky, very beautiful. ”You probably think the same about every pretty girl...”

The Medicine Lady’s tone was leisurely, yet the tail end of her sentence carried a hint of imperceptible bitterness, which sounded exceptionally clear in the empty Cave.

Yun Xiancheng sensed that faint bitterness in the Medicine Lady’s words. He knew that relying on words alone would likely not fully dispel the doubts in her heart.

Thinking of this, the youth’s gaze narrowed. Gritting his teeth slightly, he suddenly extended his arms and pulled the Medicine Lady, who was sitting on the Lotus Platform, tightly into his embrace! ”Yes, Master is absolutely right.”

To the Medicine Lady’s surprise, Yun Xiancheng did not deny it, nor did he offer clever excuses. Instead, he frankly admitted it, his tone so direct that it left her stunned.

He had always disdained concealing his own emotions, and he was even less willing to feign hypocrisy in front of her. Starting a harem and holding beauties in his arms was his heart’s desire, and there was no need to hide it.

Yun Xiancheng changed the subject, his tone becoming increasingly serious, his deep voice carrying a hint of unquestionable solemnity.

”But Master must know, for this Disciple, every woman who enters my home is someone I wish to cherish, someone I must protect.”

”To be precise, every ’sister’ in my home is someone this Disciple treats with all his heart, someone I am willing to love sincerely.”

He tightened his arms slightly, pressing the Medicine Lady’s petite body closer to his chest, as if he wanted to merge her into his very flesh and blood.

”Since you have entered my home, I, Yun Xiancheng, shall naturally bear the burden of their future lives, sharing in their glory and shame, following them through life and death—and they, naturally, include you, Master.” Yun Xiancheng said earnestly.

”Good... good for you, you unfilial Disciple!”

Hearing this, the Medicine Lady’s delicate body suddenly stiffened. Her originally dim eyes widened instantly, filled with astonishment and shock.

She never imagined that Yun Xiancheng would speak such shocking words and be so audacious! ”You... you dare to... you actually want to make a move on your Master!?”

As soon as the words fell, the Medicine Lady’s pretty face was flushed with a rosy glow, burning like fire. The next instant, the youth lowered his head and kissed the Medicine Lady’s slightly parted red lips directly!

This sudden intimacy caused the Medicine Lady’s delicate body to tremble violently. Her toes curled involuntarily due to shock and shyness, and her icy toes unconsciously gripped the edge of the Lotus Platform tightly.

She never imagined that Yun Xiancheng would use such... such a bold and wanton method to ”comfort” her!

The youth’s kissing technique carried an irresistible intensity and dominance, instantly prying open the Medicine Lady’s slightly stiff pearly teeth.

His nimble tongue took advantage of the opening, delving deep to entwine with her slightly stiff yet fragrant and soft tongue, engaging in a tight embrace, dancing together, and harmonizing in rhythm.

The Medicine Lady’s body became increasingly soft, and her originally tense form gradually relaxed under the youth’s intense and domineering kiss. After a long while, the two slowly separated, with only a glistening bridge of saliva connecting them.

Yun Xiancheng looked at the Medicine Lady, who had a trace of faint confusion amidst her daze, while her small hands tightly clutched his lapel. She seemed not to have expected that her good Disciple not only wanted to marry Xiao Yan, but that even she, her Master, was on his harem list.

”Master...” Yun Xiancheng spoke softly again, his voice slightly hoarse, yet adding a touch of bewitching magnetism. ”This... is the promise this Disciple wishes to make to you.”

”Let us... be like mandarin ducks flying wing to wing, following each other through life and death, walking hand in hand to the end of this Fighting Qi Continent, seeing all the prosperity of the world and viewing all the beautiful scenery under heaven, how about it?”

Hearing this, the Medicine Lady’s heart rippled slightly. She actually believed Yun Xiancheng’s exposition regarding his harem; the youth’s extraordinary confidence and sense of responsibility were branded into her memory.

He had always been like this.

He seemed to have never concealed his desire and ambition to establish a harem and possess a multitude of beauties.

He always believed in this firmly, even carrying a kind of almost arrogant confidence, as if he were certain that he possessed enough ability and courage to shoulder the fate and life of so many women...

”You boy... you are so young, how can you be so heroic and ambitious?”

Yet at this moment, in the depths of the Medicine Lady’s heart, she surprisingly did not feel disgust or aversion; instead, the previous sadness and despair gradually dissipated.

Replacing it was a long-lost heartbeat and anticipation, a sense of vitality as her heart began to beat powerfully once again. Following this, a sense of inexplicable confidence and heroism quietly sprouted in her chest.

She looked up, gazing intently at this bold and audacious, yet charming good Disciple before her—he was her own Disciple, so why couldn’t it be?

At worst, she could help him reach the supreme position of Dou Di, letting him rule the world and shake the universe!

Why couldn’t an Emperor shoulder the lives of others and become the Master of a harem with three palaces and six courtyards?

The Medicine Lady extended her jade arms, tightly hugging Yun Xiancheng’s sturdy waist, and nodded: ”Since that is the case, then this Master... will give you this opportunity.”

[Medicine Lady status bar updated.] [Medicine Lady] Realm: Unknown. Favorability: 60/100 (The Medicine Lady was once betrayed by her first Disciple, your senior sister, Han Fenger, and is extremely sensitive to such matters.

071 A Lick

Yun Xiancheng had always been a thoughtful and good husband who understood the moods of the women in his home.

Having just comforted the Medicine Lady with gentle words and only having had time to enjoy a storm-like kiss, he was already thinking of another Master in his heart—Yun Yun.

Having just spent a moment of tenderness with the Medicine Lady, Yun Xiancheng began making preparations, intending to go and comfort his other Master, Yun Yun, whose heart knots were difficult to untangle. To make both of his Masters willingly submit and eventually become ”his own” people, he could be said to have exhausted all his efforts and worked too hard.

Although Yun Yun was not as emotionally expressive as the Medicine Lady, nearly to the point of collapse, deep in her heart, there was actually a hidden thorn of resentment that was difficult to let go. Whenever Yun Yun’s gaze wandered and inadvertently swept over the sisters of the Xiao Family, Yun Xiancheng could keenly perceive that his beautiful and gentle Master was again secretly pondering those thoughts that only added to her troubles.

She always inevitably saw herself as an elder, harboring all sorts of concerns, looking ahead and behind, adding to her own troubles.

She even vaguely felt that her fate was to watch helplessly as Yun Xiancheng married others, while she could only spend the rest of her life alone, solitary, and miserable.

That is simply ridiculous! He, Yun Xiancheng, was determined to include Yun Yun in his harem, so how could he let her lose heart and suffer in sorrow alone?

Bah, Yun Yun might have her misgivings, looking ahead and behind and adding to her troubles, but he, Yun Xiancheng, had always been a wanton person; how could he care about these mere worldly conventions and shackles?

In this world, what could be more yearning and dream-haunting than marrying the benevolent mentor who raised him from childhood and spending the rest of his life together?

Night fell quietly, with sparse stars dotting the deep night sky.

Since that heavy snowfall, the current Wutan City had a sky clear as if washed, with twinkling stars, and the air was exceptionally fresh and pleasant, refreshing to the heart and spleen.

Only the occasional biting cold wind silently reminded everyone that it was still the peak of winter, a time when water freezes into ice and the cold pierces the bones.

The petite body of the miniature Medicine Lady sat securely and comfortably on the lapel of Yun Xiancheng’s chest.

Only her small, exquisite head was exposed, gently wrapped in the waves of heat radiating from Yun Xiancheng, feeling warm and extremely cozy.

”Phew, so warm.”

The Medicine Lady’s expression had visibly relaxed, her tightly knit dark eyebrows gradually smoothing out, and the worry between her brows dissipated significantly, replaced by a sense of relaxation and laziness.

However, when she inadvertently noticed the direction Yun Xiancheng was currently heading, she couldn’t help but feel some confusion, curiosity suddenly arising in her heart.

”This direction... doesn’t seem to be the road leading to the Mittel Auction House, does it?” The Medicine Lady tilted her head slightly, speaking in a faint tone, her crisp voice carrying a hint of imperceptible probing.

”Hmm, I am on my way to find Master Yun Yun.” Yun Xiancheng admitted candidly, without the slightest intention of hiding anything.

”Hmm? Everything is fine, why are you suddenly going to find her?” The Medicine Lady was even more puzzled, her pair of lively, beautiful eyes filled with questions and curiosity.

”Master Yun Yun also harbors hidden worries in her heart, always feeling that my wings are gradually growing stronger, and that I will eventually spread my wings and fly far away, leaving her behind to guard an empty boudoir alone.” Yun Xiancheng explained truthfully, his tone carrying a trace of helplessness, a trace of doting, and much, much more—it was his heartache and pity for Yun Yun.

”How could I, Yun Xiancheng, ever commit such heartless, unrighteous acts of starting with affection and ending with abandonment? My Masters are all people who have bestowed grace upon me; they are also the people I, Yun Xiancheng, respect and admire the most. They are destined to be married into my home, to accompany me from dawn to dusk, to stay together forever, and to grow old with me!”

As soon as the words fell, the Medicine Lady showed a hint of shyness.

She tucked her small head into the lapel of Yun Xiancheng’s clothes like a startled little rabbit, leaving only a strand of soft hair hanging playfully outside.

”You... you... you Disciple, what are you... what nonsense are you spouting again... really... aren’t you ashamed... not just me as your Master, right.”

Yun Xiancheng couldn’t help but chuckle, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly to reveal a doting smile.

He carefully took the miniature Medicine Lady out from his lapel, held her gently in his palm, bowed his body slightly, and planted a soft, dragonfly-like kiss on her tender, pink cheek.

The Medicine Lady shuddered as if electrocuted, her delicate body trembling violently. Her small face instantly flushed red, like a ripe apple, dripping with charm and extremely alluring.

”You lecher, you big pervert, I really must have been blind to have taken you as a Disciple back then. Really... really infuriating! You came to learn from me, turns out it was for... for such... such filthy thoughts. Truly... shameless to the extreme!”

”Master, please do not think of your Disciple as so unbearable, so filthy, and so unsightly.” Yun Xiancheng said with a solemn expression, dead serious, and arguing righteously. His tone was so sincere and his expression so innocent that it could almost pass for the real thing.

”It is clearly because you, Master, are truly too innocent and naive, too... fascinating and irresistible...”

”It is all the Master’s fault for making the Disciple unable to restrain his feelings for a moment; it is human nature and understandable. I hope you, Master, will not hold it against me, and will be generous and understanding.”

”Hmph, glib-tongued, flattering, twisting black and white, arguing irrationally! You little wicked Disciple, you are truly... rotten wood that cannot be carved, a child who cannot be taught!” The Medicine Lady scolded with a blushing face and a coy, slight anger. Although her tone was stern, it was clearly a case of being fierce on the outside but weak on the inside, having no power at all, and instead adding a bit of charm.

Suddenly, as if thinking of something interesting, she changed the subject, asking with a playful tone: ”By the way, are you not planning to... to make that Master Yun Yun of yours, also become... a complete mess, head over heels?”

”This... well... I suppose... you could say that.” Having his thoughts exposed so bluntly by the Medicine Lady, Yun Xiancheng felt a bit embarrassed instead, speaking with a slight awkwardness, his usual thick skin seemingly having become a bit thinner.

Upon hearing this, the Medicine Lady immediately became interested. Her small face, which had been a bit shy and angry, instantly blossomed with an expression of great interest, and her pair of lively, beautiful eyes curved into two crescent moons as she smiled.

”Since that is the case, why don’t you, Master, let the Disciple demonstrate properly how the Disciple plays with Master Yun Yun?” The Medicine Lady’s tone carried a hint of teasing playfulness; she was clearly enjoying the show.

”Hmm... then the Disciple must put in a good effort, so as not to disappoint Master’s interest in watching the show. However...” Yun Xiancheng’s eyes shifted, his tone suddenly turning flirtatious, ”Since it is a performance, it wouldn’t be good to waste the effort for nothing. Master, how do you think this reward should be settled?” Implicitly and explicitly, he was asking the Medicine Lady for a reward.

As for what kind of reward, judging by his flirtatious gaze, the Medicine Lady knew a thing or two.

The Medicine Lady’s shame and anger grew even more, her snow-white cheeks instantly stained with a charming blush, like a ripe peach on a branch, making one drool.

”Fine, fine, fine, I’ll agree to you, I’ll agree to everything!” Amidst the coy scolding, a fragrant breeze struck. Her exquisite, petite body flew out like an arrow leaving the string, instantly escaping the youth’s palm, and in mid-air, she returned to her original size.

In the blink of an eye, the Beauty stretched her legs slightly, and with lightning speed, firmly clamped onto Yun Xiancheng’s head, pressing it fiercely toward herself.

”You hopeless, rebellious Disciple, you are truly... infuriating!”

The Medicine Lady gave a coy cry, her tone carrying a bit of shame and helplessness. The ice-silk close-fitting underpants she was wearing pressed tightly against Yun Xiancheng’s lips, bringing a series of delicate sensations.

Her skin was as soft and smooth as congealed fat, and a blush of mixed tension and shyness appeared unconsciously on her face, making her look even more charming and moving.

Yun Xiancheng gazed intently at the Medicine Lady’s ice-silk underpants, which were right in front of him. The unique scent of honeysuckle on the young girl lingered at the tip of his nose.

He couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, then with a mischievous smile, he gently pressed his lips against the cool and smooth fabric, and his nimble tongue began to move restlessly, probing and teasing.

”Hmm... seems you are quite skilled, you little wicked Disciple...”

The Medicine Lady whispered coyly, her voice as melodious as an oriole, every strand revealing an uncontrollable infatuation.

The young girl’s voice drifted in the air as if it were there and then not, tugging at the heartstrings. In the air, that faint scent of honeysuckle became increasingly rich and fragrant.

It was obvious that the Medicine Lady had already gradually sunk and lost herself under Yun Xiancheng’s heart-tugging offensive, her originally tense, delicate body becoming soft and powerless.

”Master... your Disciple was clearly thinking of you earnestly, how can you wrong your Disciple like this? It really makes your Disciple very sad.”

As Yun Xiancheng spoke, he acted even more wantonly, having already pried open a gap in the ice-silk underpants, enjoying to his heart’s content the butterfly resting on the honeysuckle, lingering and reluctant to leave.

At this moment, the Medicine Lady had completely surrendered, unable to say any words of rebuttal, and could only weakly tilt her head back, emitting a few indistinct moans from her mouth, as if she had already reached some kind of limit.

Seeing this, Yun Xiancheng hurriedly took her, now somewhat exhausted, gently into his arms, stroking her back tenderly, and patiently waiting for her spirit to gradually recover.

After a while, the young girl slowly opened her beautiful eyes, her face still pink, as alluring as a ripe apple.

”It... it was... barely passable.”

She shyly buried her head in Yun Xiancheng’s broad chest, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzzing, her shyness overflowing: ”The reward has already been given to you, now take me to see how you tease your Master Yun Yun.”

”This... how can this count as a reward?”

Yun Xiancheng said, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly to reveal a meaningful smile, his tone leisurely, as if he were not very satisfied with the ”reward” given by the Medicine Lady.

At this moment, the Medicine Lady finally noticed that something was pressing against her waist.

She followed that face-flushing sensation and looked down slowly. When she truly saw that thing, which was like a connection between heaven and earth, majestic, and magnificent Buzhou Mountain.

Her small face, which was already dripping with charm, instantly turned incredibly red, like a burning sunset glow, almost ready to drip blood.

”You... you... you shameless Disciple... you... you dare...”
