When Yun Lin entered the dining hall, carrying Yun Yang in his arms, the fellow disciples who were having their meal were even more astonished than during morning class. Each and every one of them couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, marveling at how this junior apprentice, who had just entered the sect, was so formidable. In just a few days, the eldest senior brother had already become completely devoted to him.
It should be noted that when Senior Brother looks at them normally, he always has a cold expression on his face.
Yun Ling had just placed Yun Yang on the stool when his second junior brother, Yun Ting, delivered the meal for him.
"Senior Brother, are you tired? Take a seat and rest before having a meal."
Everyone in the sect knew that Yun Lin had been punished for dozing off during morning class because of Yun Yang. As a junior brother, Yun Ting naturally cared about his senior brother. However, what he didn't expect was that his innocent senior brother was implicated and yet didn't hold a grudge against his little junior brother. Instead, he even brought him to the dining hall.
"Thank you." Even in front of his martial brother, with whom he spent the most time, Yun Lin still maintained a formal and polite attitude, creating a sense of distance between them.
After finishing his sentence, Yun Lin pushed the food in front of Yun Yang, saying, "Aren't you hungry? Go ahead and eat."
Then, as he was about to turn around to get his own food, he was intercepted by Yunting.
Senior Brother, you rest here, I will go fetch it for you," Yun Ting said and then walked away.
Yun Lin did not refuse and sat down next to Yun Yang.
"Elder Brother Two seems to care a lot about you," Yunyang said, resting his head on the table and looking at Big Brother.
Yun Lin only said these six words, "食不言寝不语" (eat without speaking, sleep without conversing), and didn't bother with him anymore.
Yunyang pouted and picked up the chopsticks. With great difficulty, he picked up a piece of tofu from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth.
Bland and tasteless, it even had a strong smell of soybeans that was difficult to swallow.
He had been at the Xuan Yin Sect for several days now, and he was already aware that the food there consisted of either tofu or vegetables. At noon, it was tofu and vegetable soup, and at night, stir-fried vegetables with tofu.
He knew that these ascetics focused on self-cultivation, abstained from killing, abstained from meat and alcohol, and abstained from indulging in desires. The Valley Lord of the Wuling Valley, Qiu Ci, also led his disciples in the path of cultivating immortality, but he didn't have as many restrictions in the Wuling Valley. Qiu Ci still took wives and had children, and on their birthdays, they would have grand feasts where meat and alcohol were not forbidden. It wasn't as strict as the Xuan Yin Sect.
He yearned for the days when he drank and feasted with the demon clan.
Yun Ting quickly brought Yun Lin's meal over. "Senior Brother, please eat. You arrived a bit late, so the food is already a bit cold."
"Thank you." After expressing his gratitude to him again, Yun Lin began to have his meal.
The Big Senior Brother has always been a serious person, even eating his meals with elegance, chewing slowly and savoring every bite. On the other hand, Yun Yang, who is sitting next to him, doesn't like the food and pokes the tofu in a dish until it turns into a mushy mess, making it look very unappetizing.
However, his stomach was really too hungry, so he could only force himself to eat.
Yun Yang finished his meal first. As he looked up, he noticed Yun Ting sitting across from them, propping his head up with his hand, completely absorbed in staring at Yun Lin.
The gaze resembled that of a flirtatious female demon looking at him.
Does Senior Brother Two have feelings for Senior Brother One...
No, the senior martial brother and the second martial brother are both males, so it's impossible. Yun Yang dismissed his own speculation.
As Senior Brother was about to finish his meal, Yunting suddenly spoke up, "Senior Brother, I didn't quite understand what Master explained this morning. Could you please explain it to me later?"
Yun Lin put down her chopsticks and frowned, "I'm afraid today won't work. I have something to take care of later. Let's discuss it when I have time tomorrow."
After finishing speaking, Yun Lin stood up from the chair.
Sitting by the side, Yun Yang rubbed his sore knee and watched him.
There was no need for the junior martial brother to say more. The senior martial brother once again embraced him and turned around, walking out of the dining hall.
