Chapter 2703

"You are even more enthusiastic than I am," Zhu Yanyi said with a teasing smile.

The Black Emperor chuckled softly. "As the God of Medicine, you already have many duties. Add your other identities, and if your guardians were not in place, you would truly be unable to move. Do not forget, those protecting you now are under the Emperor of Hell’s command."

"It is my duty to protect her," the Emperor of Hell stated firmly. "She is my wife, my lover, my Dao companion. She is also my life."

"But you are the Emperor of Hell," the Black Emperor replied. "You have many things to do. Your wife’s guard duty can be entrusted to others."

The Emperor of Hell knew this was a kind reminder, but she still looked at Zhu Yanyi. "You decide this yourself. If you like it, accept it."

Hearing these ambiguous words, Zhu Yanyi glared at Yan Aohan.

Yan Aohan realized his words were problematic and quickly explained, "I mean, you can accept a disciple."

Zhu Yanyi thought for a moment. She took out several spirit stones and set up a simple trial array. She spoke to Qingyun: "I give you a chance to become my disciple. This is a trial array. It tests your state of mind. If you are sincere, you will naturally come out. But if you have hidden thoughts, the array will reveal them."

"Yes," Qingyun said without refusing. She knew becoming a god’s disciple was not simple.

Although the trial might be difficult, she believed she could succeed. Without hesitation, she kowtowed to Zhu Yanyi and entered the array.

The simple trial array had no effect on cultivators above the Golden Core stage, but for Qingyun, it was a great pressure.

As soon as she entered, Qingyun felt she had returned home.

"Qingyun, stop daydreaming. Come eat quickly." Her mother appeared, holding a bowl of food.

"Mother," Qingyun said, slightly stunned.

"Sister, come sit here." Her little brother came over playfully, pulling Qingyun to a seat.

"What good food is there today?" Her father appeared.

In this world, there were her father, mother, and brother. How happy it was.

Tears filled Qingyun’s eyes. But this was fake. She knew it was fake. Even though it seemed warm, reality was different. She knew her parents were dead and her brother was missing.

The scene changed to a wedding hall. Qingxia, wearing a bride’s dress, looked at Qingyun with disdain. "What are you doing here? Do you want to steal the wedding?"

"Qingxia, I love you." The person next to Qingxia was Hong Xiao, Qingyun’s former fiancé.

Hatred rose in Qingyun’s heart, but it quickly faded. She looked at Qingxia. Although it was fake, she said, "Thank you for taking her away. My path is different from yours." Then she said to Hong Xiao, "Thank you for not marrying me."

As her words fell, the scene disappeared. Qingyun found herself outside the array. She was slightly stunned.

Zhu Yanyi had seen all of Qingyun’s reactions. Not only Zhu Yanyi, but Yan Aohan, the Black Emperor, and others also watched.

"I thought you would need at least seven days in the trial array. Unexpectedly, you came out in three days. It seems you have truly understood," Zhu Yanyi said with a light smile.

Qingyun was not stupid. Hearing this, she knew she had passed the trial. She hurried over and knelt before Zhu Yanyi. "Please, Senior, accept me as your disciple."

Zhu Yanyi looked at Qingyun. "I am the God of Medicine. My sect is the path of medicine. Those who enter my sect must care for the sick of all worlds. Those in my sect must not use medicine or poison to harm or kill people without cause. Those who enter my sect must have a kind heart, but kindness is not endless giving. You must grasp this balance yourself. Those who enter my sect must be truly good, not hypocritical. Do you remember?"

"I remember," Qingyun nodded seriously.

The Fairy Queen nearby laughed. "Silly girl, why don’t you bow to your master quickly?"

"Ah?" Qingyun was stunned for a moment, then understood. Zhu Yanyi was accepting her. She happily kowtowed. "Disciple Qingyun kowtows to Master."

Zhu Yanyi smiled. "Get up. Being my disciple is not easy. The rules I just stated are general directions. Daily conduct is up to you. You must have your own standards. As the God of Medicine, I treat patients as my parents. Therefore, I must do what needs to be done."

"Disciple remembers," Qingyun nodded seriously. Although she did not fully understand some meanings now, she remembered them first.

Zhu Yanyi nodded in satisfaction. "I know you have remembered. That is enough."

She continued, "You have successfully reached the Qi Condensation stage. However, only after Foundation Establishment can one be considered a true cultivator. You are not there yet. But in your world, being at the mid-stage of Qi Condensation makes you a strong hand. So, go and understand the karma you wish to know."

Qingyun hummed. "Actually, I do not want to go to the Qing or Hong families. In my past life, they developed so quickly because I was their enemy. They had a common target to suppress. But now, I do not want to return. I have killed those I could kill in my past life. I have taken my revenge. My only hope now is to find my brother."

Zhu Yanyi hummed slightly. "What is your brother’s name? What is her birth date and time? Tell me, and let your Master’s Husband help you check."

Zhu Yanyi pointed to Yan Aohan nearby. "This is your Master’s Husband. She is the Emperor of Hell. She controls the cycle of life and death in your world. So, finding someone is very convenient."

Yan Aohan heard her wife promoting her so hard. A look of doting helplessness appeared on her face. She rubbed Zhu Yanyi’s head, then said to Qingyun, "Speak."

Qingyun was shocked by her Master’s Husband’s identity. The Emperor of Hell, the ruler of the Underworld. What kind of powerful backer had she found? She quickly bowed. "Disciple Qingyun greets Master’s Husband. My brother is named Qinghe. her birthday is the first quarter of the Chen hour, on the fourth day of the second month, in the Gengshen year."

Yan Aohan nodded slightly, indicating he understood. "You may rise."

Then, he flipped his left hand, and the Earth Book appeared. He casually tapped the book with his right index finger. The Earth Book began to flip pages. The speed was first slow, then fast, then slow again. After about five minutes, it stopped.
