Chapter 37: Disciples?

"And what sect is it, Brother?" Lin Yun asked. From what he knew, Lin Xiao barely knew anything about the world. How was it possible for him to know which sect was better than Taiyi Sect?
"I don't know."
Wenren Yu's face blanked. "What?"
Lin Xiao shrugged. "I don't know what other sects out there too, so for now the most important thing would be for me to survive in this world. Also I need to find a woman for Yun…"
"Medicine! Medicine first, Brother!" Lin Yun quickly cut off his brother's words. Rather than seeking for the last resort, he hoped that there would be a medicine that might be able to cure his condition.
"Fine."
"Brother, that's the last resort. Wenren Yu is not the best doctor in the world, so I might be able to find better solution!"
Wenren Yu: "…"
While it was the truth, he didn't think that there was any other medicine that could cure Yin body attribute. Though, Wenren Yu didn't want to break Lin Yun's hope, so he chose to stay silent.
His mind recalled their previous conversation. "Who comes from the three sects?"
"Ah?" Lin Xiao furrowed his brows. "Aside from Representative Liu Gang from Yun Liu Sect, I don't know the other two names. One is a woman from Wang Luo Sect and the other one is a man from Yue Da Sect."
"Any characteristic you can remember?"
"The woman is pretty and the man is very silent."
Wenren Yu: "…"
Lin Yun rolled his eyes at his brother's very general's description. With that description, there thousands of people who would surely match. He sighed and looked at Wenren Yu.
"The woman is around 5'6 tall with slender body. She's wearing beautiful light pink dress and have long hair. There's also engraving at the hairpin but I can't see it very clearly because of the distance. Oh yeah, the hairpin she used is also light pink in color…"
"Oh." Wenren Yu's eyes narrowed. There was only one person he knew who usually wore light pink dresses from Wang Luo Academy, but….
"She's only core disciple, though?"
"EH?"
"What?"
Wenren Yu nodded. "if I'm not wrong, she should be Luo Mingyue, one of the few core disciples of Wang Luo Academy. Just recently, she reached Foundation Establishment at quite a young age."
Lin Xiao blinked his eyes. "I thought she's already in her mid twenties."
"She's 24 if I'm not wrong."
"That's young?"
"There are many who couldn't even reach Foundation Establishment in their entire life." Wenren Yu shook his head. Compared to them, Luo Mingyue was indeed faster.
"I see."
"How about the other one?"
Lin Yun chose to quickly give out the description of that silent man, but this time, Wenren Yu couldn't recognize him. There were only a few disciples that he knew and there was no one who matched the description that Lin Yun gave out.
As for Lin Xiao's description, there were too many that matched that would only make people confused.
"Why did they send disciples here and not their elders?" Lin Xiao asked as he walked to the kitchen and began to prepare their lunch. They hadn't eaten anything because the food in the gathering was prepared only for the representatives and they disciples. There were some herbs that they could eat today.
Wenren Yu tilted his head. "It's fairly normal for a sect to assign their disciples to be the one to take some missions. I'm sure that they'll be rewarded with some sect's point by being the one to come here."
"But the three younger one calls them as Master!" Lin Xiao refuted.
"Some core disciples are also teachers. And in a small sect like those three, I wouldn't be surprised if their core disciples have already started to take some disciples under them," Wenren Yu replied. Taiyi Sect was also the same, so he knew that some of the core disciples were already a teacher on their own.
At this moment, Lin Xiao was stumped. He had never thought that the sects could have such complicated way inside.
"They're such young teachers," Lin Yun muttered.
Wenren Yu smiled bitterly. Some core disciples didn't like to accept disciples because they were too young. However, some of them accepted the arrangement because being a teacher had their own benefit too.
"Would you like to try seeing them?"
"Seeing the representatives?"
Wenren Yu was tempted to see them, but he was worried that they might recognize him. He might be only an outer disciple, but there was only a handful medicine student in Taiyi Sect back then. Since he could recognize Luo Mingyue, he was not certain that they wouldn't recognize him.
Lin Yun nudged his brother. "Bro, don't scare him. He's already so timid. What are you going to do if he becomes even more so?"
"You're right. Forget I say anything."
Wenren Yu: "…" I haven't even said anything.
Lin Xiao finished cooking and put the vegetables that he had cooked on the table. "I'll just collect more herbs today. Tomorrow, we're going to see what kind of show the representatives will show us."
"Alright, Brother."
"Let's eat first."
"Brother, next time, let me be the one to cook."
"Ah?"
"You overcook the vegetables a bit."
"Just a bit is fine."
Lin Yun sighed. If they were making medicine and Lin Xiao overcooked it, he was sure that the medicine would turn into poison.
