Discomfort 

Yun Ye wanted to push the person away, but the body in his arms was concerningly as cold as ice. The thin and petite boy incessantly drilled into his arms, squirming and holding Yun Ye’s hem with tight-fisted hands. Once Yun Ye’s shocked-stiff body had softened, Bai Tu reclined to his body more. 

Yun Ye could not come to terms for a while. He stroked Bai Tu’s vest twice and made up his mind. His hand reached out to the lapels of his vest.

Bai Tu closed his eyes tightly and shrank as if trying to avoid it. 

“Don’t move.” Yun Ye laid him close to the fire, trapped Bai Tu’s hands above his head with a hand, and straddled him to keep the boy’s feet, who kept trembling into a fetal position, still. “You’re soaked all over. You must remove your clothes.”

He was uncertain if Bai Tu heard it, but the boy stopped moving under him and let Yun Ye remove his soaked vest. 

Yun Ye laid down his clothes near the fire and glanced at the boy, still huddled next to the fire. Only a thin coat covered the youthful boy’s upper body. The texture exposed on the collar’s edge was smooth and delicate. Blue-green blood vessels could be seen in the pale skin, like faint inks on a fragile piece of warm jade that appeared almost transparent.

Yun Ye averted his gaze while clearing his throat. His back slowly arched and his clothes slipped to the ground, and only an adult gray wolf remained in the cave that night.

The wolf was clad in silver ash-gray fur that shone and looked soft in the warm light of the fire. It had a large and healthy body. The four limbs thrummed with power from within, exuding a majestic presence.

The gray wolf approached the young man’s side, stretched out his paw, and then froze in mid-air. He carefully slid the boy, who had evolved into the shape of a ball, into its chest. It shuffled a few times in place, facing its back to the entrance to ward off the blowing of the night wind. 

Only the furs on its waist and abdomen were comparatively soft, with each fibre of its silver-gray fur being fine and tough. The boy leaned against the wolf’s belly, his hands subconsciously caressing and gripping the warm and nice place at the wolf’s waist. The gray wolf let out a low whine and slapped the treacherous hands away with his paw.

‘Where is this little blockhead touching?!’

Yun Ye grumbled angrily and pinned the boy’s deceptive hands and feet with his larger wolf’s paws.

The flickering flames of the firewood, combined with the warmth they provided, created an atmosphere enhanced by the silhouettes of a person and a wolf cuddled together, reflecting on the walls of the cave. 

Yun Ye gradually fell asleep. After a long while, he had a dream. 

The dream’s endless snow-capped mountains and biting arctic wind were identical to Yun Ye’s previous life when he first entered the Mysterious Realm of the Absolute Beginning.

At the time, he was still an entry-level disciple of the Tianyan Sect.

Yun Ye had just transformed into a human being. While carefully concealing his demonic power, he worked hand in hand with other disciples to protect himself. Six days flew by in the blink of an eye just like that. On the seventh day, the exit of the realm opened on time, and the closest portal to them was on top of the snow-capped mountain.

The disciples must leave the secret realm by the end of the seventh day, or they will fail the trial.

And, just to be on the same side, more monstrous beasts gathered near the exit of the realm than ever before.

After a bitter struggle, everyone finally reached the exit less than two hours before it closed. However, unbeknownst to everyone’s expectations and hopes, a massive monstrous beast tramped in front of them.

There was not much time left. If you clashed with another beast again, you would miss out on the chance to leave the secret realm.

Yun Ye was pushed away by his companions, leaving him to deal with the monstrous alone. It was only after he attracted the firepower of the monstrous beast that he realized his companions had already forsaken him and scrambled toward the exit of the secret realm themselves.

The monstrous beast was formidable, and just as he was about to crash down to the ground, a person appeared in front of him.

It was a young man who was reserved and never showed enthusiasm for communicating with the other disciples. Yun Ye did not have any impression of him because of this.

But it was this person who picked up an iron sword dropped by someone else as they thwarted toward the portal. The one who courageously wielded a single sword to sever an arm of the monstrous beast, and the Ling Ran’s intent brightened the entire summit of the snow-clad mountain.

Soon after, the man turned his head. An earnest and clear voice resonated in his head. “Prick its heart, right now.”

Yun Ye subconsciously lifted his sword and pierced the monstrous beast’s heart, as if driven by a newfound strength. The surroundings shook as the beast bellowed in pain. It staggered a few steps back and finally collapsed to the ground.

The body of the monstrous beast transformed into a long sword after it fell to the ground, and it was only then that Yun Ye realized that this was the monstrous beast in charge of guarding Tai Chu. Those who killed the monstrous beast with their own hands could become the next master of Tai Chu.

Yun Ye picked up Tai Chu and looked at the young man who assisted him, but the other just shook his head and pushed him on the way out.

And, in the midst of his confusion, Yun Ye noticed that the area where they had previously fought had suddenly collapsed, and the billowing snow had quickly engulfed everything in sight, including the young man’s body.

He didn’t even get the man’s name after he saved his life.

Until a long time later, Immortal Lord Zhaohua displayed the same sword technique in front of him.

There could be similar tricks, but the sword’s intent, which was unique to the world, could not be false. And all along, the man who saved his life and assisted him in obtaining Tai Chu was his Immortal Lord Zhaohua.

***

When Bai Tu awoke the following morning, the firewood beside him had been reduced to ashes. He sat up, noticing the coldness that had once pervaded his body had vanished, replaced by warmth. He looked down at the neat clothes he wore and thumbed the lapels on his vest, 

‘Did someone take off my clothes last night?’

Soft footsteps approached the cave’s entrance, and Yun Ye’s figure appeared soon after. “It’s good to see you’re awake. Do you feel better now? ”

Bai Tu gave a nod. He opened his mouth, but his words became clogged in his throat, and he was hesitant to ask Yun Ye, “Did you undress me yesterday? ”

The other walked up to him and handed him some fruits. “First, eat something. I have scouted the area, and this seems to be a valley. It would take more than a half-day to get out. As it should be, given that I can fly, but you…”

Yun Ye looked down at him, his eyes filled with doubt. “Have you mastered sword flying?”

Bai Tu stalled for time without answering. Instead, his hands picked up the fruit and took a bite.

The fruit had a sweet and sour punch to it, but it was still palatable. However, as soon as Bai Tu chewed the fruit, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. His arms moved on their own to push Yun Ye away, as he bolted and crouched down on the grass outside the cave, retching.

But he couldn’t spit anything out.

Yun Ye frowned at the man squatting at the cave’s entrance. “No matter how off-putting the fruit I chose, you don’t have to act like this, do you?” ”

Bai Tu pressed his clenched hand on his abdomen, unable to say a word.

His body had been acting strangely recently.

Bai Tu had never contracted a disease or suffered from it since his arrival in this cultivation world. Yet lately, first he was in poor spirits, then he was all chills and felt nauseated as if his body was trying to make up for the sickness he missed in the previous 100 years.

Could it be that his cultivation base was more enervated than necessary when he helped Yun Ye subdue the inner demons leaving sequelae?

Bai Tu sagged outside the cave, squatting and looking miserable. Yun Ye approached him after watching from the sidelines. “Are you really that sick?” ”

He knelt and poked his finger against Bai Tu’s brow. When the other raised his misty, confused eyes, a teasing smile glimmered in Yun Ye’s. “You wouldn’t pretend to be sick just because you’re afraid I’ll leave you behind, right?”

‘Scram.’

If Bai Tu’s eyes radiated lasers, he’d most likely be dead by now.

“I’m just kidding with you,” Yun Ye said as he stood up and bent down with his back to him. “Climb up, I’ll carry you. If you don’t hurry, it will soon be dark.”

Except for the occasional rustling of the leaves and the breeze, there was nothing but silence in the woods. Bai Tu laid on Yun Ye’s back, content despite the bobbing motion as Yun Ye paced. When he tilted his head, he caught sight of Yun Ye’s deep and handsome side profile. 

Bai Tu had never looked at him from this angle before.

Yun Ye’s face was captivating. With the untamed edges of his brows, his face was undeniably the most appealing face to little girls. Bai Tu caught wind that the female cultivators in Tianyan Sect were divided into two factions. Half of them covertly adore Immortal Lord Zhaohua, while the other half fancy Yun Ye. 

With such a face, it was really hard not to have people chasing after you. 

“I know I look good, but you don’t have to stare at me so hard, do you?”

Yun Ye tilted his head and peered at him sideways. His tone was lighthearted.

Bai Tu hastily withdrew his gaze, and stammered, “How can you say you’re good-looking? Don’t you feel embarrassed? ”

“Am I not telling the truth?” Yun Ye arched his eyebrows. Then he chuckled as if something amusing had occurred to him. “I’m not sure. If you act like this when you see me, I wonder if you can still walk if you see my shizun. ”

Bai Tu: “…”

His remarks aroused Bai Tu’s curiosity. He chewed on it for a while and asked, “Can you tell me about your master?”

“What can I say?” Yun Ye let out a laugh as he shook his head. “The deeds of Immortal Lord Zhaohua are well known across the lands. Do you still know any less?”

Bai Tu would trade anything to find out what his apprentice thought of him. He allowed the words to guide him to elicit an answer. “But those are stories told by others.” You must know something that others do not because you are close to him.”

Yun Ye was taken aback for a moment and nearly faltered. He shook his head, and both sides of his mouth hooked up. “That’s correct.”

“My shizun… is not as cold and ruthless, unlike other people. He’s a wonderful person.” Yun Ye gazed into the distant mountains and forest, savoring the precious emotions filling him. His mind wandered back to the dream last night and his eyes unconsciously softened. “He nurtures a kind heart. Righteous and unadulterated, and always treating the people who care about him well, and he treats them nicely despite everything, and sometimes, even puts the overall situation more important than himself.”

“… He sounds like such a fool.”

His perception of him was broader than he had anticipated. As he buried his head on Yun Ye’s back, Bai Tu’s heart pounded erratically on his chest. The tips of his ears were scorching.

He made a blunder. He didn’t want to hear it at all. ‘Don’t bring it up again.’

Yun Ye appeared to have noticed his abnormality. He adjusted his hold and turned his head back. Yun Ye peeped with brows clenched together and asked, “Well, that was rather a pleasant talk. Wait, why are you blushing?”

“I, I’m not…”

Yun Ye put Bai Tu down and turned around, pivoting on his heel. His arms were crossed as he looked down at him. “I haven’t said anything yet, yet your ears are all beat red.”

Bai Tu took two steps back and averted his gaze. Yun Ye followed in his footsteps and cornered Bai Tu against a tree. Bai Tu saw a gap and was about to slip when his path was blocked by Yun Ye’s arm.

The latter leaned in close to his face and narrowed his eyes at Bai Tu. “You can’t be…”

Bai Tu’s heart was pounding so loudly that it obscured his normal hearing, and he almost missed Yun Ye’s words. “… Do you like my shizun too?”

Bai Tu: “…”

“Yes, I like Xianjun Zhaohua as well,” Bai Tu bit the bullet and lied through his teeth. 

Yun Ye gave him a frown and a sidelong glance. After a while, he said in a low voice, “No.”

“What?” Yun Ye shot a scornful look into Bai Tu’s eyes. A few seconds later, nipping words escaped his lips. “You are not permitted to admire my shizun. Only I can like him.”

Bai Tu was taken aback because he thought he had heard something incorrectly. Then he burst out laughing.

Yun Ye’s frown became even more pronounced. “What’s so amusing about it?” ”

“I thought you were going to say something.  It turned out to be jealousy.” The more Bai Tu looked at his little apprentice, the cuter he became in Bai Tu’s eyes. He cracked a smile. “There are many people in the world who admire Xianjun Zhaohua. Can you afford to be busy if you have to be envious of everyone? ”

Yun Ye’s face became dour. “That’s different.”

“Where is it different?”

Yun Ye fell silent.

He swivelled in place and rested his back against the tree. A breath escaped him as he lowered his head eyes and faced the person beside him, who awaited his response. The young man resembled nothing like his shizun, yet he always had a feeling that he could perceive the shadows of his shizun in this person. 

Yun Ye fixated his sight on those unpretentious and clear eyes and did not notice that his voice had softened. “My liking differs from them.”
