Yi Jiang was indeed thinking that.
It was her fault; she had only been here a few days and was already thinking she could surpass Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle and her Senior Brother's years of bond.
How harmonious Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle and her Senior Brother were.
Without speaking, they could communicate just by looking at each other.
How envious she was of Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle, hmm... she wasn't jealous, she just wasn't smiling because she didn't want to, her facial muscles were tired from eating and studying today.
So, she didn't want to smile.
Senior Brother could very well mock her along with Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle; as a child, her mind was always filled with all sorts of random thoughts... not cute at all, right?
Yi Jiang clenched her fists; fortunately, her younger sister still cared for her, squeezing her hand.
She offered her a piece of pastry.
"Big Sister, quickly try this, this quicksand bun is so delicious!"
"Mm, Yi Xuan is still the best~"
She opened her small mouth and took a gentle bite, and the slightly hot egg yolk filling flowed into her mouth, thick, fragrant, and abundant... almost overflowing.
Bai Xian still leaned against Yun Ming; she wasn't powerless, but most of her energy was diverted to analyzing the chaotic thoughts within her body.
It seemed there were memories belonging to her inside.
She said with a smile.
"Slow down, your Master bought these for me, there's more if you want some~"
Yi Jiang's mouth, which was chewing the bun, stopped, and a strange bitterness welled up in her heart; she didn't want to eat anymore... but Yi Xuan didn't think that way, she didn't care about all that.
Master said, you need to eat enough to have the strength to cultivate.
You need to eat enough to grow tall and big~
Cough cough... Yun Ming gave Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle an annoyed look; it was obvious to anyone, yet she was still playing dumb and stirring up trouble.
Bullying children, are we?
As their Master, he couldn't just stand by and watch.
"Stop teasing Yi Jiang; calling me Master or Senior Brother is fine. I don't think I'm so old that people only want to call me Master, like an old man."
"Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle, whatever you have, come at me..."
"Oh, you're very brave then~"
Yun Ming ignored her, and in front of the two little ones, he kneaded Bai Xian's face into a dough ball, "Don't look at her like this, she's actually very easy to talk to..."
"Yi Jiang, don't lower yourself to Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle's level."
"Yun'er, you are truly very brave!"
Bai Xian's ear tips were slightly hot, but her expression gradually turned cold, her smile like frost.
She could fool around with Yun Ming in private, but that didn't mean she didn't care about her dignity at all. It was truly a case of 'a few days without a beating and he's climbing on the roof to remove the tiles'.
Does he really want to pin Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle down?
Bullying his Master and destroying his ancestors!?
She wanted to be on top.
Yun Ming was stunned, feeling his hand firmly locked. Where was the slightest hint of weakness from just now... A presence that could suppress the entire Yun Kui Mountain rose from Bai Xian.
Five-Finger Mountain pressed down, pinning Yun Ming onto the table.
"I'll teach you a rule: all Apprentices of my Yun Kui Mountain must respect their teachers and value the Dao. Those who do not comply will serve as an example."
Slap, slap!
Yun Ming gripped the table tightly, burying his face deep.
Nothing on his body hurt, except his buttocks which were burning. The force wasn't great, but the sound was extremely loud.
It shocked the two little ones directly.
Yi Jiang no longer misunderstood; all she felt was deep fear of Little Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle. Her face changed in an instant... Wasn't Second Senior Brother, Yun Ming,
the strongest in Yun Kui Mountain in this generation, so much so that even Sect Master Xuan Mingzi would avoid his sharp edge without drawing the Qing Ming Sword?
He was, he was suppressed just like that by one hand.
Yun Ming gritted his teeth, 'You little Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle, did kneading your face mean your life? Next time he...' Alright, he didn't dare to retaliate equally... pitiful, weak, and helpless.
Just wait for him; sooner or later, he would surpass Bai Xian and become the strongest in Yun Kui Mountain. By then, a mere Little Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle would be at his mercy.
"Do you two want to try? This time, you're specially allowed to bully your Master, otherwise, you might never get the chance in this lifetime."
Yi Jiang was tempted, but, but, but... if Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle left, wouldn't they be doomed? So, absolutely not.
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard a soft 'smack'.
The sound was very faint.
She looked blankly beside her.
Yi Xuan had already made her move, standing proudly with her hands on her hips.
Hmph hmph.
Let Master knead her face; he had kneaded it all round.
It definitely wasn't because she had been eating too well these past few days.
"You really hit him?"
"Huh? Didn't Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle say I could hit him?"
This left Bai Xian completely bewildered.
No, if I tell you to hit him, you actually hit him? That's your Master! Why is this child so silly... I'm the Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle, of course I can hit him. Telling you to hit him was just to verbally humiliate my Junior Nephew, but you actually hit him.
If I leave, won't you be in trouble?
Bai Xian cast an appreciative gaze at Yi Xuan; she had a premonition that this child would achieve great things in the future.
"Good child, keep it up."
She stuffed the last bite of pastry into her stomach, and the immense aura disappeared with it. She then collapsed onto the bed, falling asleep.
She fell down, but another person stood up.
He was silent.
The world suddenly became so quiet, with only the sound of a heartbeat remaining.
Yi Jiang felt her heart beating so fast. Her younger sister was hiding behind her; she was the older sister, she couldn't be afraid.
Even if there were thousands, she would go... But, she still wanted to ask.
Yi Xuan, my dear sister, where did your courage go just now?
She stepped forward, took Yun Ming's hand, placed it on her own face, and began to act spoiled.
"Senior, Senior Brother, Yi Xuan is ignorant..."
"You won't be angry, will you? If you're going to blame someone, blame me! I'm willing to take the punishment for Yi Xuan."
As she said this, Yi Jiang herself couldn't bear to hear it. If word got out about being spanked by a Apprentice,
she would probably be laughed to death.
"You're willing to take the punishment for her?"
Yun Ming asked with a forced smile, then picked up Yi Jiang by the waist and walked towards the other white-haired loli.
"Yi Xuan, you've truly disappointed your Master greatly."
"I thought you were very well-behaved."
He lovingly stroked Yi Xuan's chubby face, and under her desperate gaze, his large hand reached out and instantly 'refined' her.
The two little girls lay on the bed, bottoms up, one on the left, one on the right.
"Master, can you be gentler? Yi Xuan knows she was wrong..."
"You know you were wrong? You just know you're about to get a beating!"
Yun Ming was merciless with his words. If he didn't properly discipline these two little rascals, they would truly turn the world upside down later on.
Even when he was little, he wasn't this brave, was he?
At most, he would tug Xuan Mingzi's beard, or steal Little Grand-Aunt Martial Uncle's clothes when she was bathing as revenge... And even then, he was beaten every day.
Indeed!
A kind father's rod, strikes the rebellious son.
Twelve strikes a second, every strike a critical hit.
These children, if they aren't polished, they won't amount to anything—
Yi Xuan pouted, her eyes welling with tears. Although the slap hadn't landed on her bottom yet, she already guessed the outcome.
Bad Master, don't let her get a chance for revenge.
Smack!
"Ouch, it hurts, Master, Yi Xuan knows she was wrong!"
Yi Jiang buried her head in the quilt, enduring the pain, and turned to look at her sister resentfully. That slap clearly landed on her own bottom.
My dear sister, why are you feeling the pain for me?
Yun Ming almost couldn't help but laugh. No, he had to maintain a serious demeanor, just like a high school homeroom teacher in his previous life.
"So painful, then what about now?"
Smack, another slap, only louder this time.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts! Master, Yi Xuan will never dare again."
Yi Jiang desperately clutched the bedsheet, her mind a blur. Why, why was she the one getting hit again?
