Chapter 120: Master and Disciples

Every time they cultivated together, he could smell that scent and Ye Shiyuan liked it very much.

Bai He felt his cheeks begin to heat up.

Although he didn’t know the reason, he still felt... that something about this situation was strangely off.

"Ye Shiyuan, I’m warning you, let go of me right now, or I’ll get angry."

Bai He hadn’t really expected those words to have any effect.

Unexpectedly, after only a brief pause, Ye Shiyuan actually loosened his grip and released him.

"Master, don’t be angry. I’ve let go of you."

Bai He quickly moved away from Ye Shiyuan and standing somewhere he absolutely couldn’t reach him.

Of course, this reaction didn’t escape Ye Shiyuan’s notice and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. "Master, do you reject me?"

For some reason, Bai He couldn’t stand seeing that deeply dejected expression on Ye Shiyuan’s face.

Was something wrong with him? That hadn’t been his intention at all, he had only felt a bit uncomfortable.

"I..."

"Master, I’m fine." Ye Shiyuan lifted his head, his smile somewhat forced. "Master, I’m very sleepy."

The speed at which his expression changed caught Bai He off guard, but whatever, he might forget everything by tomorrow anyway.

"If you’re sleepy, then go to sleep early."

"Master, can you stay here until I fall asleep before leaving?"

Ye Shiyuan’s voice was soft and a little cautious as if he was afraid Bai He would refuse him.

If Bai He really did refuse, he didn’t know what he would do.

After drinking a little, Ye Shiyuan seemed to realize that he had gotten a bit carried away.

He still hadn’t been able to restrain himself.

As silence lingered, Ye Shiyuan grew a little lost.

"Sorry, Master. Just pretend I didn’t say anything."

"I’ll stay with you. Once you fall asleep, I’ll leave. Now can you behave and go to sleep?"

Bai He was truly at a loss with Ye Shiyuan.

Why was he acting like a child?

He shouldn’t forget that Bai He himself was younger than him.

Couldn’t he be a bit more considerate?

Was he really treating him as an elder?

Seeing Bai He sit by the bedside, Ye Shiyuan obediently lay down, then closed his eyes, seemingly falling asleep in contentment.

Ye Shiyuan and Xu Feng only woke up three hours later.

By then, it was already night.

Bai He happened to be in the courtyard.

When he saw Xu Feng come out after opening the door, Xu Feng seemed to realize he had done something wrong and tried to sneak away quietly.

But Bai He spotted him. "Stop right there!"

Xu Feng stiffly turned around, looking somewhat confused.

"Master, I..."

"Where do you think you’re going? Come here."

With no other choice, Xu Feng shuffled over obediently. "Master, what do you need me for?"

He still had the nerve to ask!

"Did I ever teach you to drink? Can you even handle alcohol? Do you know what your behavior is like when you’re drunk?"

Xu Feng couldn’t answer a single one of those questions. He had drunk out of curiosity... and hadn’t thought at all about what he would be like after getting drunk.

Who would have thought that after getting drunk, he would become like that? Not to mention Bai He just recalling those scenes himself made him feel extremely embarrassed.

"I’m sorry, Master."

"So you do know you were wrong. I thought you’d shamelessly deny it to the end. Let me tell you, don’t ever drink casually again. And if you do drink, make sure you build up your alcohol tolerance first before doing so."

Drinking to such a state who knew how those people would laugh at them?

Thinking back to that moment, with so many disciples of the Xueshan Sect watching, it was truly humiliating.

At that moment, the door to Ye Shiyuan’s room also opened.

When he saw this scene, he paused for a moment, then he quite tactfully walked over.

The first thing he did was apologize. "Master, I’m sorry."

"You... your situation is even more serious. Ye Shiyuan, you are the senior brother, how could you lead your junior brother to drink together?"

Ye Shiyuan lowered his gaze, unable to deny it. "Yes, Master. This disciple understands."

"You two, reflect on yourselves properly. Also, after we return, you must both train your alcohol tolerance. I already asked Xue Yanming, you two actually collapsed after just three cups."

When hearing that number, Bai He didn’t just feel embarrassed, he felt utterly mortified.

Three cups? What kind of concept was that?

They became like that after just three cup and those were small cups at that.

"Yes, Master. After we go back, I will definitely train my alcohol tolerance properly. Next time we come, I will definitely drink them under the table."

Bai He narrowed his eyes.

Was Xu Feng’s focus completely off?

When had he ever said anything about winning through drinking?

He just didn’t want to encounter such a situation again.

"I think you’re asking for a beating."

"Senior Brother, I’ll leave first."

Afraid that Bai He might actually hit him, Xu Feng quickly ran off and leaving the place to Ye Shiyuan.

As for how Bai He would punish Ye Shiyuan, he couldn’t be bothered to listen.

"You..."

Bai He who is furious pointed his finger in the direction Xu Feng had run off, then angrily slammed the table hard.

Fortunately, the table was sturdy otherwise, it might have been shattered by Bai He’s strike.

"You want to leave too?"

Ye Shiyuan shook his head, he then crouched down and looking up at his seated master.

"Master, you may punish me however you wish. It was my fault for not properly disciplining my junior brother, and it was also me who brought shame to the Lingguang Sect."

Bai He wasn’t really afraid of anything, but if there was something he feared, it was people like Ye Shiyuan.

Someone who admitting fault so cleanly and decisively.
