Watching My Daily Life After My Master Died

When Qiu Yingshui was eight, her whole family was slaughtered by their enemies. Fortunately, her master happened to pass by. Seeing her exceptional talent, he took her in, and she survived.

As the first disciple accepted by Sword Sovereign Qinghui, Qiu Yingshui naturally became the eldest senior sister.

Whether because he had saved her life when she was young, or because of the nearly thousand years that passed, Qiu Yingshui gradually fell in love with her master. But she knew such feelings went against all propriety, so she never spoke of them.

Even after her master took many more disciples and gradually lavished his affection on others, growing less close to her, Qiu Yingshui never let her feelings show.

Even when she received the news of her master's death, while everyone else wept aloud, Qiu Yingshui gave nothing away.

Only after the crowd had dispersed, leaving her alone, did Qiu Yingshui finally let her eyes redden.

Qinghui was ambushed just as he was about to ascend. He thought he was going to die, but when he opened his eyes again, he found himself transformed into a special kind of spirit.

Before Qinghui had time to be surprised, he saw his eldest disciple, usually taciturn and even colder than he was, waiting until everyone had left before vomiting blood in front of the place where he had perished.

Since no one could see him, Qinghui soon discovered the secret feelings his disciple had been hiding.

And, even worse, when night fell, she... she would do that sort of thing to his phantom!!

Confusion, shock, revulsion, embarrassment... Then, when he saw her risk everything to avenge him, his heart raced uncontrollably.

Long afterward, Qinghui finally returned. He thought his eldest disciple would be overjoyed, but she merely lowered her gaze and called out, just as she always had, "Master."

Nothing more.

Qinghui realized that her restraint had become the most difficult problem of all.
