Sharp-tongued but soft-hearted master x seemingly gentle but truly hot-tempered disciple
This was written in advance and updates are irregular. It won't be contracted.
Reader's Guide (Content Warnings):
* Traditional progression fantasy, a very long story, and an ensemble cast. The plot comes first! The plot comes first! 80% is spent traveling and leveling up!
* The characters are complex, and the main group doesn't believe in a world where everyone gets along. If that bothers you, please don't read!
* The characters' genders and personalities serve the story, and have nothing to do with the author's values, orientation, or preferences!
* I made up the setting myself and will do my best to make it make sense. If I can't, it's an author-created setting detail (covers mouth)!
* Read the third point again!!!
* Read the second point again!!!!
Blurb:
"Word has it that two outsiders have recently appeared on the Hu Qu Continent: one from the 21st century, a billion years in the future, and one from 50,000 years ago. The two cultivate both arts and martial ways, share a soul, and were born of the primordial divine phoenix. Their power is unfathomable..."

Chu Ruo is the outsider from the 21st century in the rumors.
When she first arrived on the unfamiliar Hu Qu Continent, she was in agony!
She couldn't understand why the people of this world had a common affliction of "dying if they didn't show off."
Nor could she understand why there were so many idiots who wouldn't turn back until they hit a wall.
So she took the senior from 50,000 years ago as her master and studied the rules of the martial path.
Someone coveted her beauty?
Her master taught her: Kill!
Someone coveted her heavenly treasures?
Her master taught her: Kill!!
Someone coveted her master?
She leapt up in a fury: Wipe out their whole sect!!!
The gentleness and humility she had brought from the 21st century gradually crumbled as she continued to cultivate.
Later, she advanced from a novice in the martial path all the way to its peak.
Someone asked her for advice: "My lord, how did you make it all the way to the pinnacle of the martial path?"
Chu Ruo smiled and replied: "I killed everyone who coveted anything of my master's!"
Everyone: ...What?
Mu Jingxing, Chu Ruo's master, came from the Hu Qu Continent 50,000 years in the past and had been one of the foremost martial artists of her time.
During the great battle to protect the world, both her body and soul were damaged. A wisp of her soul was protected by the soul of the divine phoenix, which was said to possess the power of "rebirth from the ashes." She slept for 50,000 years, awakening only when the divine phoenix's soul came to life again.
She could not stand the person the divine phoenix had chosen in this lifetime. She had never seen such an indecisive and melodramatic martial artist.
She could barely tolerate Chu Ruo's stupidity, but since she lived in Chu Ruo's spiritual sea and needed her help to rebuild her cultivation and body, she had no choice but to teach her mental cultivation, swordsmanship, and the arts, and take her as a disciple.
Her martial heart had once been: All feelings are external things. Anyone who blocks the path of cultivation may be killed.
She wanted to pass this conviction on to Chu Ruo, only to discover that her rebellious disciple was everyone's friend. She saved younger sisters and older sisters alike, and even dared to make a move on her!
Mu Jingxing was furious!
A blaze of divine phoenix fire burned Chu Ruo's spiritual sea, but the disaster unexpectedly helped her rebuild her physical body.
As soon as she emerged from seclusion, she saw her rebellious disciple rushing toward her, eyes shining.
Their sword intents clashed. Mu Jingxing was half a step weaker than Chu Ruo, who forced her back into her room.
Chu Ruo smiled and asked: "Master, may your disciple graduate?"
Mu Jingxing snapped angrily: "Graduate! Graduate! Get out of here already!!!"

Theme: Across this vast land, roam the martial world with sword in hand. The Heavenly Way is unpredictable, but there is love among us.
In this world view, the law of the jungle is the norm.
Looking forward to the interaction between the apprentice who becomes more powerful and the master in the soul state (referring to the apprentice repeatedly jumping sideways on the verge of death, the master finally couldn't bear it anymore and beat him up)
I hope Master will recall this sentence in the future
Change bit by bit, in that environment, you might do that.
Come on, it looks good!
Keep writing, I'll read it later!!!
