Chapter 2448 - Master and Disciple

Chapter 2448: Master and Disciple

A month later, in the courtyard where Ye Futian was staying, he was still cultivating with his eyes closed. The aura of the Great Path shrouded his entire body as he bathed in the brilliance of the Great Path. At this point, his body, as well as his spiritual soul, had almost fully recovered.

He did not let Blind Tie and the others come back for him. After all, they were still in the territory of Six Desires Heaven. Saint Zhenchan had dispatched cultivators from all sides to search for them in Six Desires Heaven. They had turned the place upside down and inside out in their attempt to find him. At a time like this, he could not possibly allow Blind Tie and the rest of them to risk their lives by coming here. As long as they were outside of Six Desires Heaven, they were safe enough.

In this one month's time, Ye Futian did not leave the courtyard at all.

At this moment, there was an invisible movement coming from outside the courtyard. It entered like invisible ripples that came in waves, and only Ye Futian had perceived this sensation. However, he didn't pay much attention to it. He continued to cultivate with his eyes closed because he already knew who had come.

Hua Jieyu was sitting close to Ye Futian. At this moment, her beautiful eyes opened as she looked forward and saw a young woman. This woman had exceptionally beautiful and clear eyes. Her refined features were particularly pleasing to look at.

Her name was Hong Ye; she was the daughter of the owner of this house. She happened upon here once by chance and saw Hua Jieyu. She had been so taken, even enamored with Hua Jieyu that she asked Hua Jieyu to accept her as a disciple.

Hua Jieyu had never thought of accepting a disciple before, so she didn't agree to it immediately. However, Hong Ye was not deterred and would often come to visit. Gradually, Hua Jieyu and Ye Futian had developed some affection for this young woman and had recruited her help in conducting some small tasks, such as making inquiries about things happening in the outside world. Of course, the main purpose was to find out more about Saint Zhenchan's search for them.

In addition, he wanted to obtain a detailed map of this world. Not just the names of the places, but also the top powers and top cultivators in each world. Ye Futian wanted to get a clear picture of the basic situation in the Western World.

However, Hong Ye's cultivation base was not very high, so it was not easy for her to get what Ye Futian wanted. It took a lot of time and effort, but she finally got what he was after today.

"Goddess, this is the jade slip of the map. Once your divine consciousness enters it, you will be able to see everything," Hong Ye said while she took out a jade slip and handed it to Hua Jieyu. Once Hua Jieyu took hold of it, Hong Ye smiled sweetly and said, "Goddess, can I ask you to be my teacher now?"

Hua Jieyu looked at the woman in front of her, a little surprised. She didn't expect the other to be so persistent.

"You will leave sooner or later, and I may disappear at any time," Hua Jieyu said to Hong Ye.

"It doesn't matter. I don't mind," Hong Ye continued.

While Hua Jieyu was still hesitating, Ye Futian, who was next to her, opened his eyes and smiled at her. "Jieyu," he said, "since Hong Ye is sincere, why don't you accept her as a disciple? Although she may leave at any time, while we are cultivating here, we may leave something behind."

Hua Jieyu immediately understood Ye Futian's intention. When he saw how sincere Hong Ye was, he wished that Hua Jieyu would not care so much about the formalities between teacher and disciple. While they were here, they could teach Hong Ye a thing or two and mentor her just for the sake of making acquaintances with one another.

The relationship of teacher and disciple had no real impact on any of them.

Glancing at Ye Futian, Hua Jieyu pondered for a moment. She then nodded at Hong Ye. She handed Ye Futian the jade slip she had received.

"Thank you, teacher." Hong Ye was ecstatic when she saw that Hua Jieyu had finally agreed to her request. She immediately bowed down and said, "Disciple Hong Ye greets the teacher."

"Mmm." Hua Jieyu nodded slightly and said, "Although you asked me to be your teacher, my cultivation may not be suitable for you. I will teach you some suitable methods, and if you have any questions regarding cultivation, you may also ask me."

The Hua Jieyu from once upon a time had practically no cultivational experience to speak of. But now, she had emerged with incarnations of many lifetimes, which were all part of her memory. She knew far more cultivation methods than Ye Futian, although none would be as powerful as the divine methods cultivated by him.

"It's you, teacher. As long as it is taught by teacher, Hong Ye will work hard," Hong Ye said with mirth. The first time she was here, she had sensed that Hua Jieyu was extraordinary and saw her as someone not of this world. Whether it was her visage, temperament, her every word and action, or that hidden aura, she realized that Hua Jieyu was definitely a very powerful cultivator.

Of course, Ye Futian was a powerful cultivator himself, though he was a little too conspicuous with his white hair and white clothing. Hong Ye couldn't very well ask him to be her teacher in front of Hua Jieyu.

Hua Jieyu nodded and said, "Why don't you go back first? I need to organize the cultivation methods in my memory and decide which ones are suitable for you."

"Very well," Hong Ye nodded agreeably. "I will go now."

With that, she smiled and left.

After she left, Hua Jieyu looked at Ye Futian and saw that he looked at her with a smile. She then asked him, "Why did you want me to accept her as a disciple?"

"Buddhism talks about predestination, doesn't it? Since we are cultivating in the Western World, destiny is the reason why you two met. So you can leave something here, even if it is just to create a pleasant memory," Ye Futian responded. When he was speaking, he took the jade slip from Hua Jieyu. His divine consciousness directly penetrated it. In an instant, many images began appearing in his mind.

Soon, the world of Buddhism made its impression in Ye Futian's mind. When he withdrew his divine consciousness, he took a deep breath and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the strength of the Western World was so powerful that it was on par with the Divine Prefecture.

The rest of their time was spent in relative quietude. Hong Ye came here often to consult Hua Jieyu about cultivation. Sometimes she would ask Ye Futian as well. Once, she even asked curiously, "Teacher, what is your current realm in Rehuang?"

Hua Jieyu ignored her, so Hong Ye looked at Ye Futian. But Ye Futian just smiled without saying a word. He did not respond to her question.

"It must be a very powerful level. Maybe you have already surpassed the Lower Renhuang Realm. That would mean Middle Renhuang," Hong Ye smiled and guessed. After cultivating for a period of time, she left again.

These days, she came around quite frequently. Sometimes she stayed in their place days at a time.

One day, when Hong Ye came to the courtyard again, it seemed that her eyes had undergone some change. They looked different from before. It was slightly uncanny.

Hua Jieyu looked at her, clearly sensing something was awry.

"Hong Ye, what's the matter?" Ye Futian's perception was so keen.

Hong Ye glanced at him when she heard Ye Futian's question. She bit her lip lightly, seeming to be in some pain while struggling inside.

"It must be false," Hong Ye reminded herself. She then said to Hua Jieyu, "Teacher, please leave here quickly."

Hua Jieyu frowned slightly, but Ye Futian tensed up. These words had unsettled him!
