Number One Under Heaven -
Chapter 57: Toy
Still staring at Tian Yi with a pink face, Xuan Wanshan cried to herself,” That hurts! What kind of head does he have, a head made of steel?!” The moment Xuan Wanshan slapped the back of Tian Yi’s head, her hands became numbed.
Seeing how it became quiet again, Xuan Yuming chuckled, “Shanshan, you sure picked up a very cute Disciple. Tian Yi, was it? I am Xuan Yuming, her Mother. If she ever bothers you, come to me okay?” Saying that she went to lift him up from the kneeling position and patted the dust off his clothes.
“…” Tian Yi silently watches her, whose beautiful face was very similar to his Master’s.
After Xuan Yuming finishes, Tian Yi said, “Senior, this is a greeting gift from me, please accept it.” He held the expensive looking red box in front of her.
Seeing his actions, Xuan Yuming shakes her head saying, “Take it back, just your thoughts are enough.”
“But—”
“Tian Yi, what did I tell you before coming here? Just the thought of it is already enough. Everybody is family here, do not mind it.” Xuan Wanshan said.
“Family?” Tian Yi asks with a puzzled face.
Xuan Cheung laughs, “Of course, as a Disciple of my Daughter, you are now also a part of the Xuan Family, be proud!”
After being feeling surprised for a bit, Tian Yi nods with a smile, “Then if the Seniors say so, I will take this back. But I do not plan to leave empty handed, so until I find another suitable gift, I will shamelessly greet the Seniors with no gift.”
Seeing how respectful Tian Yi was being, the Xuan Family nods with approval, thinking, “As expected from my Daughter, to find such a good Disciple.”
Xuan Yuming walked to up Tian Yi and suddenly rubbed his cheeks with her soft hands,” Ah, what a good boy you are. Maybe we should just adopt you.” She joked.
Shocked by her actions, Tian Yi stood there with a frozen face, “S-Senior?”
“Aiya, what Senior? Did we not just say that you are now a part of our Xuan Family? You can call me Mother Yuming or just Mother is fine too.” Xuan Yuming said, still playing with Tian Yi’s soft cheeks.
Hearing such words, Tian Yi’s jaw drops from shock. Xuan Yuming’s character was just like his real Mother, but she is more open with her friendliness than his real Mother.
They had just met, and she is already this intimate with him?!
Xuan Wanshan looks at Tian Yi’s shocked face with an expression of rejoicing. Always being the one shocked by him, this is a nice change of pace. Not to mention that this might even be the first time she has ever seen his shocked face!
Seeing the shocked Tian Yi, Xuan Yuming found it even cuter and asked, “TianTian, how old are you this year?”
“TianTian?!” Tian Yi cries in his heart. Not even 10 minutes into meeting with Xuan Wanshan’s Family, and he has been shocked more than he has been since coming down to the Mortal’s Realm!
“I-I am 18 Years Old…” Tian Yi answers with a stiff voice.
“My! So young. What about that young lady over there?” Xuan Yuming points to the quiet Meng Xiang who was still standing at the door.
“Meng Xiang, come introduce yourself to the Seniors—”
“TianTian, Mother Yuming is fine.” Xuan Yuming corrects him.
“…” Unable to answer that, Tian Yi turns silent.
Seeing Tian Yi in trouble, Meng Xiang came to rescue him, “I am called Meng Xiang, 11 Years Old and I am Big Brother’s Tea Servant!”
“Tea Servant? But why is she calling him Big Brother?” Xuan Yuming had thought that she was Tian Yi’s little sister! What kind of Servant calls their Master ‘Big Brother?’
*Ahem*
Xuan Cheung coughed and said, “Dear, we need to start preparing for the journey.”
“Ah, I almost forgot. TianTian, come talk to me if you need anything.” Saying that she finally lets go of Tian Yi’s cheeks.
“…” Looking at the red box still in his hands, Tian Yi looks at Meng Xiang, thinking, “Now that I think about it, it has been some time since I last gave something to her.”
Noticing Tian Yi staring at her, Meng Xiang asked, “What is it Big Brother?”
“Meng Xiang, here is a little gift from me, keep it safe.” Tian Yi hands over the red box to Meng Xiang.
“Thank you, Big Brother!” Meng Xiang smiles with a happy expression.
Xuan Wanshan walked over and asked, “Tian Yi, what were you trying to give my parents?”
“It is nothing much, just one of the three Ancient Divine Caudron, the Taintless Jade Caudron.” Tian Yi answers her as if it was nothing important.
But the moment Xuan Wanshan heard the word ‘Ancient Divine Caudron,’ her eyes flew out of their eye sockets.
“One of the three Ancient Divine Cauldron, the Taintless Jade Caudron?!?!?” Xuan Wanshan screams in her heart.
How could she have not heard of the three Ancient Divine Cauldron before? The three Ancient Divine Cauldron are considered the best Cauldron to ever exist since the Ancient times! However, even though it is considered the three best Cauldrons in the world, nobody has ever seen it since the Ancient times, making it just a Legend!
Legend says that the Taintless Jade Caudron can purify any ingredients under heaven 100% of its impurities by itself. What does this mean? It means that whoever has this Taintless Jade Cauldron will be able to skip the first phase, going right into the second! Not to mention that it is 100% of its impurities! How Heaven-Defying is that?
Not a single person has seen it since the Ancient times, yet somehow her Disciple had one on him?!? Not to mention that he even planned on giving it away as a meeting gift?!?
While Xuan Wanshan was shocked, Meng Xiang opened the red box to see a palm-sized Cauldron sitting inside the middle of the box. The Cauldron was made of an unknown kind of beautiful pure white Jade, and the Cauldron was engraved with incomprehensible words all around it, making people feel an unfathomable Aura around it.
Meng Xiang took the white Jade Cauldron out and stared at it with sparkling eyes, “Thank you, Big Brother, this thing is very beautiful! I love you!”
“Un. I am glad that you like it, you can play with it however you like.” Tian Yi nods.
“What?!?” Xuan Wanshan cried in her heart when she heard him. Play with it?! He is going to let her play with one of the three Ancient Divine Cauldron that is considered a legend?! If this news gets out, countless Pill Masters around the world will cry for the injustice being done to their dream Cauldron!
While Xuan Wanshan was crying in her heart, Meng Xiang asked Tian Yi, “Big Brother, how should I play with this thing?”
“It is still too early for you to bind this with your blood, but you can still make it grow and shrink in sizes. You can use it as a bathtub for now. Do not worry; it will not get dirtied no matter what.” Tian Yi said with a calm voice.
Xuan Wanshan almost coughed up blood hearing that. He is definitely trying to cause a massive Pill Master suicide accident! If Pill Masters hears him saying to use one of the three Ancient Divine Cauldron to take a bath, they will definitely kill themselves.
“Big Brother, how do I increase the size of this thing?” Meng Xiang asks.
“All you have to do is touch it and imagine it growing bigger, like this.” Tian Yi touches the Ancient Divine Cauldron.
*Poof*
The Ancient Divine Cauldron instantly increases in its size, from a palm-sized Cauldron to a Human-sized Cauldron.
“Wow, this is so cool!” Meng Xiang jumps up and down, trying to see the inside.
Touching the Ancient Divine Cauldron again, Tian Yi shrinks it back to its former palm-sized Cauldron.
“Here you go.” Tian Yi hands back the Caudron to Meng Xiang.
“Thank you, Big Brother! Let me kiss you!” Meng Xiang makes a smooching face.
Putting a finger on Meng Xiang’s smooching lips, Tian Yi laughs, “Hahaha, if you grow tall enough, maybe I will let you kiss me all you want.”
“Shanshan, do you want to come with us to Xiangliu Continent?” Xuan Cheung came back and asked.
Xuan Wanshan thinks for a second and turns to look at Tian Yi, “Tian Yi, do you want to go?” She asks.
“Of course.” Tian Yi nods.
Xuan Cheung nods back, “Good; then we will leave tomorrow. You can choose whichever guest room you like.” Saying that he went back to pack.
Because it is still in the morning, Tian Yi looks at Meng Xiang, “Meng Xiang, want to go around town and eat? I have yet to eat any food from this Continent.”
Hearing the word ‘Food,’ Meng Xiang’s ears perked up, “Yes!” She said with excitement.
“Master, do you want to come?” Tian Yi asks her.
Shaking her head, Xuan Wanshan said, “No, you two go and enjoy yourselves. I will stay here and talk to my parents more. Ah, Tian Yi, try not to cause trouble!” She had to warn him again because nothing good ever happens when he is not within her sight…
“Don’t worry Master; I am only going out to eat.” Tian Yi chuckled, leaving with Meng Xiang and Yan Yan who has been on her shoulder this whole time.
Xuan Wanshan stared at his disappearing back, thinking to herself, “What is this uneasy feeling?”
* * * * *
“Yunming, what do you think of Shanshan’s new Disciple?” Xuan Cheung asks his wife who was current throwing stuff into her Storage Pouch.
Hearing her husband’s question, Xuan Yuming stopped packing, “I find him very cute, and he is very respectful.” She said.
“Aiya, I am not talking about that. It is his Aura that I am speaking about, what do you think of it? That is not something an ordinary 18 Year Old can achieve.”
“Oh, you mean that imposing Aura that almost took away my ability to breathe? With that kind of Aura and Character, he will definitely grow into a high-quality man. Although I could not gauge his Cultivation Level, I could sense something very powerful inside him. Maybe he has some unique talent that even a Spirit King cannot see through?” Xuan Yuming said.
The moment Xuan Yuming touched Tian Yi, she also probed him a little bit, making sure that her daughter did not pick up some bad Disciple. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not even see a thing about him, making his entire being a mystery.
Even Xuan Cheung was surprised after hearing that she could not probe him and said, “Then should we watch over him carefully or—”
*Pap*
Xuan Yuming slapped the back of his head, saying, “Do you have no trust in your own daughter’s eyes? Just from the way she acted just now is already enough to see that she really likes him. Even the feeling he gives out makes me feel attracted to him, and not to mention how soft his cheeks are. How could someone with soft cheeks like that be bad?” She lectured him.
Xuan Cheung was dumbfounded after being lectured, “… Soft cheeks? You are telling me that is your reason for trusting him?”
“You are just jealous of their close relationship. Instead of being so over-protective, why not cheer them on?”
Xuan Cheung’s eyes twitched after hearing her words, “Cheer them on? But they are Master and Disciple?!” He asked.
Xuan Yuming shook her head, “That makes it better, at least it is better than just a regular marriage. Dear, society is changing, and you will see more and more of these relationships. Did you not hear about the Yao Family’s eldest son who married his Master just last week?”
“What? Something like that happened?” Xuan Cheung was bewildered.
“Then—”
“Mother and Father, are you busy?” Xuan Wanshan’s calling interrupted them.
“No, come on in.” Xuan Yuming said.
*Cre*
The door opened, and Xuan Wanshan walked in, “Do you need help packing? Tian Yi went out to play with Meng Xiang, and I am now bored.” She said.
“Hehe, even just a moment away from him makes you bored? How much do you love him?” Xuan Yuming chuckles, poking fun at her daughter.
Hearing her Mother’s question, Xuan Wanshan’s face turned red from embarrassment, “Wha-! What are you thinking about?! Tian Yi is only my Disciple and nothing more!” She shouted.
Seeing how she reacted, Xuan Yuming laughs even more, “Hahaha, do not worry my cute daughter, Mother supports you. You managed to find such an excellent young man, why not grasp your advantage before some other girl snatches him?”
“….” Xuan Wanshan turned speechless! As expected from her Mother, to see through the hidden desires that she has been holding in so easily! If her Mother learns of Tian Yi’s true appearance and talent, wouldn’t she sell her to Tian Yi for free?!
“……” Seeing how his daughter went silent, Xuan Cheung sighs in his heart, “Aiya, my wife’s ability to see through people is very scary. It looks like I have no other choice but to believe in my wife and daughter’s judgment. Little Yi, do not disappoint me!”
