Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!

Chapter 104: Qin Xiaoxi’s Dream

At this moment, the moonlight gently shone on every part of the windowsill, as if it was covering it with a layer of silver gauze.

Qin Xiaoxi finished washing up, changed into her sleeping clothes, and pushed open the window. After she and Jiang Yun left Thunder City, they decided to settle down in this small inn in the mountain forest to rest.

It was already midnight, and the forest outside the window was exceptionally quiet. Qin Xiaoxi could not help but feel comfortable.

She sat quietly on the chair. For some reason, a wave of sadness welled up in her heart.

When she thought of her sister lying in bed with serious injuries, her heart could not help but ache.

Ever since she was young, her sister had never had the freedom that truly belonged to her.

She had always lived in the shadow of the position of the eldest daughter of the Qin Family in the eyes of others. Even when she reached the age for marriage, she did not have the freedom to choose her own love. She was forced to become the instrument of marriage to protect the Qin family.

No matter how she tried to stop it in the past, it was useless.

Now, she had to bear the consequences because of her father’s mistake.

Thinking of this, she felt dreary.

In comparison, Qin Xiaoxi had it much better.

If Qin Xiaoxi hadn’t insisted on becoming a cultivator back then, she would probably be living the same life as her sister today. She wouln’t have the right to choose love, and she wouldn’t have the ability to travel around.

Time seemed to have returned to three years ago.

At that time, everything was still at the beginning…

“What? ! You want to become a cultivator? !” Qin Haisheng looked at Qin Xiaoxi, who was only a little over 17, and said angrily. He couldn’t believe that his daughter would want to become a cultivator.

“Yes, father, I have thought about it for a long time.” Qin Xiaoxi looked serious. She had made up her mind and mustered up her courage to say these words. Her sister, Qin Mingzhu, was standing at the side, looking at her silently.

“Nonsense! How can a woman think of becoming a cultivator? I absolutely won’t allow it!” Qin Haisheng waved his hand angrily.

“Impossible! I said I’ll go, so I will!” Qin Xiaoxi slammed the table angrily.

This made Qin Hai so angry that his face turned red, “What do you mean by that? I will never allow you to be like this. You should study more about lyre-playing, chess, calligraphy and painting, then find a good man to marry, instead of thinking about fighting and killing.”

Qin Xiaoxi was a little unhappy when she heard this.

“Fighting and killing? Do you think I want to learn all this for fighting and killing?” Qin Xiaoxi was as stubborn. Neither of them would give in to the other. “If you don’t let me go, I will run away from home by myself.”

“Okay, then go. If you go, don’t ever set foot in my Qin Family!” Qin Haisheng was about to take a sip of hot tea, but when he heard this, he was so angry that he threw the teacup in his hand.

“Dad, don’t be angry… Little sister… Calm down too!” Qin Mingzhu saw that the situation was not right, so she quickly went up to dissuade her.

“I can’t calm down, sister!” Qin Xiaoxi stood up angrily. “You’re determined to let little brother become a cultivator, but you won’t let me learn too, right? I understand…”

“You…” Qin Haisheng couldn’t say anything for a moment. He pointed at Qin Xiaoxi with trembling fingers, and his eyes stared like a pair of bells.

“Then I’ll leave!” After saying these three words, Qin Xiaoxi stepped out of the door without looking back.

“B*stard!” Qin Haisheng slammed the table angrily.

“Dad… Don’t be angry. Why don’t you let little sister go? There are many female cultivators on the mainland now. It’s not necessarily a bad thing to let little sister go for experiential learning.” Qin Mingzhu quickly picked up an embroidered handkerchief and wiped the water stains on Qin Haisheng’s sleeve.

“She’s really stubborn. What can she learn? She’s just curious.”

Qin Haisheng let out a long sigh. He stared at the broken teacup on the ground and thought for a while, then he said, “Fine… Mingzhu… she listens to your words. You persuade her well. If she insists on doing this, as her father, I can’t say anything more, so I can only leave her be.”

“That’s fine too.” Qin Mingzhu nodded. The servants at the side saw this and quickly came in to clean up the broken pieces of the teacup on the ground.

“Wait, Mingzhu. Come with me… I have something to tell you.” Qin Haisheng seemed to have thought of something and quickly stopped Qin Mingzhu, who was about to go looking for her little sister.

At this time, Qin Xiaoxi, who had returned to her room, was furious.

Even when she was packing her luggage, she hurtled and threw them.

She stuffed a few pieces of folded clothes into the cloth bag with all her might, but she didn’t forget to stuff a few plates of rouge and powder into it.

“If you don’t let me go, I’ll go by myself!”

Qin Xiaoxi muttered as she looked around. For some reason, after packing her luggage, she was actually a little hesitant. Maybe I left something behind? Qin Xiaoxi thought to herself.

Just as she was in a dilemma, there was a soft knock on the door.

“I said I want to go! Don’t stop me!”

Qin Xiaoxi thought it was Qin Haisheng who came, so she raised her voice and said that.

“Little sister, it’s me.”

“Sister…”Qin Xiaoxi mumbled and then opened the door for Qin Mingzhu. “I didn’t know it was you…”

Qin Mingzhu didn’t say anything. She just smiled and pulled Qin Xiaoxi to sit on the edge of the bed together.

“So, have you really decided that you must go?”

“Of course! This is my dream since I was young.” Qin Xiaoxi’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

Qin Mingzhu naturally saw it clearly.

“Since you really think so, then I will support you. However, have you thought about where you want to go? Having a good Master, I think… is also a very important thing.” Qin Mingzhu nodded and probed her sister.

“This… I am not sure yet. But I want to go to the East and learn the cultivation techniques of the Sakura Sect. Then, I want to be an unparalleled heroine above the Spirit King Realm!”

Qin Xiaoxi actually grabbed the edge of the bed excitedly.

“That is too far. Outside of here, you will really have no one to rely on.” Qin Mingzhu looked at her with some worry.

“I’m not afraid of suffering.” Qin Xiaoxi shook her head firmly and continued, “When I really become a cultivator, I’ll have the ability to protect you. Why don’t you come with me?”

Qin Mingzhu was also stunned when she heard this.

She had never had the unreasonable expectation to be able to truly walk out of these high walls. The marriage between the Qin Family and the He Family was only a little more than a year away. She knew that she wouldn’t be able to escape for the rest of her life.

“I… I won’t be with you this time.”

Qin Mingzhu’s eyes were dim, and there was a hint of sadness in her expression. Qin Xiaoxi quickly held her hand.

“If you ask me, there is nothing good in the He Family. If you go there, you will only suffer a lot of grievances. I don’t want to see you being bullied, Sister.” Qin Xiaoxi shook her sister’s hand.
