Bound to the Multiverse Restaurant, I'm now the darling of my staff.

Warm eyes glared at the talkative person, but before she could reach out to stop him, he rattled off a string of words in a flash.

After hearing the whole story, Xuanxiao had mixed feelings, and his eyes showed disapproval as he looked at Wen Nuan.

"Nonsense! Life points are so important to you, how can you just trade them away like that!"

Faced with her master's reprimand, Wen Nuan pouted and said defiantly.

"Are you just going to let Master get into trouble? This disciple isn't an ingrate; I can't do something so heartless."

Xuanxiao was at a loss for words.

Ultimately, the reason he took Wen Nuan as his disciple was simply because he wanted to study her rare spiritual root.

Moreover, because he cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness, he didn't really have any real feelings for this only disciple; it was more of a responsibility.

He never expected that this disciple, with whom he had only spent a short time, would go to such great lengths to save him...

If it were him, he would never go to such lengths for anyone.

Thinking this to himself, Xuanxiao didn't even realize that his gaze towards Wen Nuan was much gentler than before, and it held a greater degree of sincerity.

"As your teacher, I want to say thank you."

If it weren't for this little apprentice, he would probably be a cripple by now.

As for the life points his apprentice used on him, he would simply work hard to help her complete her missions in the future, and he would never let her die because of it.

Feeling a little embarrassed by her master's solemn thanks, Wen Nuan even blushed slightly.

"Why are you being so polite, Master? This is what a disciple should do."

There's a saying, "A teacher for a day is a father for life."

Although… Wen Nuan glanced at her master's aloof and ethereal appearance…

She could never call him "Dad" even if you beat her to death, but she still knew the importance of respecting her teachers!

After saying the polite words, Xuanxiao frowned and looked at her seriously.

"Also, what's going on with your cultivation level? How long has it been? You're still at the level you were at when you came down the mountain. What have you been doing all this time? Have you not cultivated at all?"

Secretly blaming himself for not caring enough about his little apprentice before, Xuanxiao made up his mind to pay more attention to this little apprentice in the future.

The master's sudden "concern" was a bit too much for Wen Nuan to bear. Like a student caught not studying hard by the teacher, she didn't dare to argue back.

The earthquake happened right after she got back, and she only got back today. She's been so busy, she doesn't even have time to sleep, let alone cultivate.

However, Wen Nuan only dared to think these words in her heart; she would never dare to say them aloud.

For some reason, she felt intimidated every time she saw her master's face.

That feeling was like seeing the headmaster when you were in school...

Seeing his disciple with his head down, Xuanxiao frowned slightly, wondering if he had been too harsh.

My apprentice is still young. It's natural for children to love to play. Shouldn't we relax him a little?

"From now on, I will supervise your cultivation more closely. Remember, you must not be too indulgent on the path of cultivation!"

The 22-year-old Wen Nuan listened to her master's teachings, nodded quickly, and remained as quiet as a chicken, not daring to utter a single word.

This sight made the other two look on with curiosity.

Especially Chu Ze.

Wen Nuan has always been arrogant and domineering in front of him, and she is incredibly bold in everything she does. Even her brother can't control her.

Seeing her like this now, Chu Ze couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile, a hint of schadenfreude flashing in his eyes.

The warm feeling of being surrounded felt like needles on my back, making me feel suffocated.

After clearing her throat twice, Wen Nuan changed the subject, saying, "Master, it's getting late, why don't we rest first?"

Xuanxiao looked at her, puzzled.

Cultivators often go into seclusion for training, sometimes for months or even years. Not sleeping for long periods of time does not have any effect on them.

Therefore, Xuanxiao was somewhat puzzled, since his disciple was close to forming his core, he could easily go without sleep for at least a few months.

Meeting her master's gaze, Wen Nuan scratched her face awkwardly, looking embarrassed.

She knew what her master wanted to say, but she had gotten used to it over the past twenty years. In addition, she was a severe case of oversleeping, especially in winter, when she wished she could stay in bed forever.

Therefore, rather than her body needing sleep, it was more of a psychological and spiritual need for her.

I haven't been able to get a good night's sleep lately, and I've been longing for my soft, cozy bed day and night.

Chu Ze simply watched the show and showed no intention of helping out.

Finally, Ludwig stepped forward, with his usual smile on his face.

"Immortal Venerable Xuanxiao, this world is full of ordinary people. If you don't sleep for a long time, it will only arouse suspicion. Besides..."

He paused, then smiled when he caught a glimpse of the grateful look Wen Nuan gave him out of the corner of his eye.

"Nuan Nuan just completed a mission, and it was only through this mission that she managed to accumulate enough life points to save the Immortal Venerable. She's exhausted."

Upon hearing this, Xuanxiao Immortal Venerable indeed showed a look of guilt on his face.

For someone who cultivates the path of ruthlessness, being considerate is a lesson he needs to learn well.

Seeing that his disciple indeed looked tired, Xuanxiao nodded in agreement, "Then let's get some rest tonight and talk about everything tomorrow."

"Great!"

Warmth raised her hand in relief and cheered, finally showing the first bright smile of the night.

"Master, come with me! Nuannuan will take you to your room!"

The room upstairs, which belonged to the new employees, had already appeared quietly.

Wen Nuan led the people inside and carefully introduced all the facilities in the room.

Xuanxiao listened attentively as well.

Although he had already received all the information about this world into his mind.

But those memories weren't really his own. Looking at these things in front of him, even though he knew how to use them, he still felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

After confirming that she hadn't missed anything, Wen Nuan nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at her master and said respectfully.

"Master, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now. If there is anything, please just summon me."

Xuanxiao nodded indifferently, looking at the little disciple in front of him.

"Nuan Nuan, I know that this world is different from the cultivation world. From now on, you don't need to worry about these formalities. Just get along with people the way you do here."

"Huh?" Wen Nuan scratched her face embarrassedly. "Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

Xuanxiao, however, insisted that now that he had come to this world, he should temporarily forget everything that happened yesterday.

He also needed to get used to and integrate into this world as soon as possible, because he didn't want to cause trouble for his young apprentice because of his special circumstances.

In the transmitted memories, people in this world always harbor fear towards "outsiders," so he should try to conceal himself and be an "ordinary person."

Seeing that her master was serious and not just being polite, Wen Nuan could only nod.

"Then from now on, I will call Master 'Master'. That way, no one will suspect anything."

"Can!"
