Back on the Day I Became His Disciple, I Left My Favoritist Master Behind

[Workaholic disciple x laid-back master, master-disciple contrast, happy ending] After breaking through to the next cultivation level, Yu Lanqing happily went to share the news with her master. Instead, she found him helping her junior sister practice sword flight. When he heard that Yu Lanqing had broken through, his first reaction was to turn and comfort the junior sister. “Don't mind her. She's not as good as you.” At the sect tournament, Yu Lanqing held nothing back. With one sword strike, she drove the junior sister to the edge of the platform. Yu Lanqing was still wondering how the junior sister her master called a genius could be so weak when, in the next instant, her master's life-bound spirit sword pierced her heart. Only then did she understand: it wasn't that she was inferior to the junior sister. Her master was simply playing favorites. As it turned out, her master and junior sister had long since made a life-and-death pact and become Dao companions. Back on the day of the master-disciple ceremony, Yu Lanqing crushed the jade token of the chief disciple right in front of her master. Then she turned and knelt before the hall. “This disciple wishes to join Elder Shen's sect.” Amid the uproar, Uncle-Master Shen, mocked as “the greatest good-for-nothing in Xuantian,” pushed back his hood, revealing a stunning face sharper than any sword. “Since you dare to stake your life and leap into this pit of fire, this honored one will show them...” “What true Heaven-Incinerating Sword Intent is.” When Yu Lanqing once again drove the junior sister to the edge of the death platform, her former master roared, “You ungrateful wretch, how dare you!” But Shen Huaizhuo's sword aura forced him to his knees. “My disciple is not yours to discipline!” With his arms around the junior sister, whose Dao heart had shattered, her former master finally saw the truth: the pearl he had once cast aside had become the sharpest moonlight in someone else's sword scabbard.
