Chapter 6: First Impressions"I only have these cultivation techniques, weapons, and alchemical pills here…"Yan Yuheng's voice grew softer and softer as he spoke, because he saw the look in Xiao Jinqi's eyes. If that gaze could turn into sharp blades, Yan Yuheng would have died countless times already.Over the years, Yan Yuheng's mind had been occupied by only two things: cultivation and taking care of his junior disciples.He was a child picked up by the sect master outside the sect. Before returning to the sect, he had lived a precarious life, never knowing if he would survive from one day to the next. He didn't know who his parents were. From a very young age, he had already grasped the law of the jungle—survival of the fittest.After enduring countless hardships, it seemed that heaven had finally begun to show him mercy. Upon arriving at the Azure Sky Sect, he was tested and found to possess an Innate Sword Physique, along with an Ice Spiritual Root that was one in ten thousand. The master also took him in as his personal disciple and eldest disciple.He knew he had to work twice as hard to live up to his master's expectations. He also didn't want to continue living the kind of life he had before—constantly on the move and being bullied by others. Only by cultivating to a height unreachable by others could he avoid being bullied.Today's events were far too unexpected. In the past, he would plan and plan again for everything he did. For some reason, when he encountered Junior Disciple Xiao, his rationality seemed to go offline.Even the esteemed and composed eldest senior disciple could find himself at a loss sometimes.Two years after Yan Yuheng arrived at the sect, he had already become very familiar with it. One day, his martial uncle tossed a baby to him. His martial uncle said he was going to study formations and hoped Yan Yuheng could help take care of the little one for a while.Yan Yuheng didn't know why his martial uncle had so much confidence in him. He was just a child himself—how could he possibly know how to take care of someone? Even the library, which held the most extensive collection of knowledge, didn't have any books on how to care for a child. Yan Yuheng had originally thought to check if the library had any guides on childcare, but upon arriving, he found that it only contained a pile of profound spells.Strangely enough, the child was very well-behaved. With a snow-white face and a pair of large, grape-like eyes, Yan Yuheng had worried that the child might cry or fuss when he carried him to the library. However, the scene he imagined—being chased out by the library elder—never happened.He carried the child to the dining hall. The people here were all miscellaneous disciples raised by the sect. Their cultivation and spiritual roots weren't particularly good, and their daily tasks consisted of running errands and doing odd jobs. Yet, it was these very people who, when he first arrived at the sect, had given him bowl after bowl of warm meals, warming his heart.Auntie Zhang from the dining hall gave him a bowl of goat's milk and rice paste. He fed it to the little one, who drank it and then continued to sleep peacefully and carefree. Auntie Zhang reminded him to come every day to feed the child and gave him a pile of cloth, teaching him how to change diapers.The little one in swaddling clothes hadn't been given a formal name by his martial uncle yet, so Yan Yuheng gave him a nickname himself: "Xiao Bao."Later, he took care of more and more children—the second junior disciple, the third junior disciple… all the way to the current youngest junior sister. The very first little one was taken back by his martial uncle, and Yan Yuheng only had the chance to see him when he went to visit his martial uncle.He later discovered that only when he acted a bit more sternly would his junior disciples listen to him somewhat. Often, to maintain this stern image, he had no choice but to keep a cold expression.Yan Yuheng felt that his image of being stern, aloof, and capable of anything had crumbled, because he also didn't know how to get out of this Secret Realm.Aside from cultivation and taking care of his junior disciples, he had also read many books. Some books mentioned this Lingyuan Secret Realm.He recalled the descriptions of the Lingyuan Secret Realm from those books.
