Chapter 18 - Thankful for accepting me as Disciple!

Shui Jin and Ying Yue were walking towards the academy grounds when Ying Yue saw some disciples were carrying wooden baskets in their hands. Ying Yue got curious and turned to Shui Jin. "Fufu, What are they carrying in those baskets?" Ying Yue asked.

"Herbs for the medicine class," replied Shui Jin softly and looked at the disciples when Ying Yue walked to them. Seeing a lady coming towards them, the disciples bowed their heads slightly. Ying Yue felt that strange but ignored that.

"So, you guys learn about medicine and healing here?" Ying Yue inquired, looking at the baskets. She then turned to look at Shui Jin "Fufu, so you learned healing like they all are?" Ying Yue asked.

A light red blush appeared on Shui Jin's face as Ying Yue was calling him 'Fufu' in front of the disciples. The disciples also looked at Ying Yue with surprising look when one among them said, "Young Lord Fu is many level above us. We have not even started to that level of healing."

Ying Yue turned to look at the person who spoke but by then the person stopped speaking so she could not see who among them said that. She mistook Wenren Yu to be that person and said, "You know a lot about him." Wenren Yu has a meek personality and also lacked sense of masculinity in him. Seeing Ying Yue was talking with him, he stumbled and lowered his head further down.

Ying Yue found it strange and lowered her head to look at him when Wenren Yu left from there without glancing at her. "Ahh, that boy is weird," murmured Ying Yue. Shui Jin came there and said, "Miss Yue, do not disturb the disciples. Come with me. They all are waiting for us." The disciples bowed their head further as they also heard about the cicatrix of death.

Ying Yue nodded and before leaving waved at the disciples when Shui Jin stopped her from doing such things. "Why?" Ying Yue asked, looking at him.

"Miss Yue, it is not the way a disciple speaks. You cannot call me by that name in front anyone as it will put a wrong impression in everyone' mind. Not only that you have to talk with respect with the people around you," stated Shui Jin.

"Umm... I noted these things in my mind. Then I will call you 'Young Lord Fu' in front of the people although I do not like this. I will try using such names for the others as well," said Ying Yue while walking along with him.

"Fufu, why do you wear this mask all the time?" Ying Yue asked out of sudden. Shui Jin stopped walking, so was Ying Yue. "I am just asking out of curiosity. It must be uncomfortable for you to wear that" Yue spoke further.

"Miss Yue, we are getting late so we should increase our pace," said Shui Jin, ignoring her question completely. Ying Yue nodded and they fastened their paces.

In the academy ground, they all were waiting for Ying Yue and Young Lord Fu when Daisung saw them. "They are here," murmured Daisung and walked towards them, followed by the others.

"Yue, are you okay? Forgive your elder brother," said Daisung softly. Ying Yue smiled and said, "Brother you do not need to ask for forgiveness. Forgive me for making you worry." She then turned to Lord Rui and joined her hands together, raised them till her shoulders and bowed her head slightly, "Forgive me for showing such behavior. I am thankful that you accepted me as the disciple of this academy."

Seeing the sudden change in the speaking way of Ying Yue they all got surprised but at the same time felt happy that Yue was finally accepting the things. Lord Rui seeing Miss Yue in that pose said, "Miss Yue, it is my pleasure to have Huo Sect princess as a disciple. Miss Qiu will tell you many things related to the academy and from tomorrow onwards you can attend the regular training sessions with the other disciples."

Ying Yue put down her hands and shook her head in agreement. "Please, come this way Miss Yue," said Qiu Si. Ying Yu was ready to leave when Young Lord Fu stopped her.

"Miss Yue, from now onwards you have to live all alone here with your fellow disciples. Young Dai and Miss Li will no longer be with you. They will return with us so before going have a talk with them because after this you will hardly get to meet them," stated Shui Jin.

Ying Yue had no special attachment with those people but because they treated her nicely, so she agreed with Shui Jin's idea. She turned to Daisung and saw he had teary eyes. She felt something strange in her heart as her own brothers never showed such emotions towards her.

She scratched her head slightly and said, "ahh, brother you do not need to be so emotional. I am just going to learn cultivation and then I will be back." Daisung rubbed his eyes and the next second he hugged Ying Yue tightly.

"Yue, I will miss your presence in the house. I will miss the food you used to prepare for me every day," said Daisung while caressing her head.

Ying Yue recalled her time with her brothers who never once showed a care towards her. When she used to return to the national sports academy, her brothers never once said such things to her. "This girl is really lucky to have such a nice brother." Ying Yue thought and unknowingly a tear fell from her eye.

"Brother, do not worry. I will come back soon. Tell mom- uh i mean mother- father not to miss me else I will come back to home," muttered Ying Yue. Bao Li was crying seeing them when both Daisung and Ying Yue pulled away.

Seeing Bao Li crying, Ying Yue tightly hugged her. "Do not cry. I am not getting married that you are crying this much. Come here to meet me frequently," said Ying Yue and pulled away. She then wiped off the tears from Bao Li cheeks.

"Young Dai, Miss Yue is like my younger sister. I will take care of her as my own sister, so do not worry," said Qiu Si.

Daisung smiled "Thank you, Lady Qiu" said Daisung and told Ying Yue to take care of herself. Ying Yue nodded and was ready to leave but then turned to Shui Jin and Fai Zhen. "Thank you for everything you did, brother," said Ying Yue, looking at Fai Zhen. He gave a tiny smile to Ying Yue.

Ying Yue looked at Shui Jin and waved at him before leaving with Lady Qiu Si. Daisung was holding up his tears when Fai Zhen patted at his shoulder.

"Have meal with us before leaving," Lord Rui requested. They nodded and left for Kéfàng.
