《Refining the Mountains and Rivers》Chapter 717B – TeacherTeacher

Yun Die’s face paled. “And now they have found me. They want to take the treasure that cost my Ying Family thousands of lives.”
Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows. Although he somehow possessed the revered title of Grand Expert, the reality was that he was only a heavily injured Calamity Immortal. Speaking honestly, he didn’t like to get involved in trouble. But when he looked at Yun Die and how she looked like some abandoned little creature, he couldn’t help but come to a ruthless decision.
Secretly ridiculing this woman’s kindness, Qin Yu said, “Yun Die, what are your plans? If everything is as you say, then things won’t stop here.”
Yun Die looked up, “I have decided to give this treasure to you.”
Qin Yu’s first reaction was – are you trying to shake the pot right now? But when he thought of the Ying Family’s thousands of lives, he suppressed this thought.
“Since it is a treasure your Ying Family died to protect, how can you give it to someone else? You should hold onto it yourself.”
Yun Die’s expression remained bitter. “In the end, it is a disaster provoked by greed. If the Ying Family Elders were able to recognize the situation in the past and send the treasure away, how could they have ended up in such a situation? The only ones harmed were the Ying Family. Besides me, their bloodline was completely cut off!
“The treasures of the world are for those capable of holding onto them. This is an unchanging principle that has existed since the dawn of cultivation civilization. Only someone as formidable as teacher can wield it without fear of it being seized. This disciple has no other wish. I only hope that teacher doesn’t allow the several thousand lives of the Ying Family to be buried in vain.”
As she spoke to here, she approached Qin Yu. Her face was flushed red and her body began to tremble. “After ten years, the treasure has already fused with my body. If you can obtain it, you can obtain me…”
Then, Yun Die could endure it no longer. She fell atop Qin Yu.
Her eyes were lidded and she let out a deep breath, looking like a flower that could be freely picked. Moreover, there was a treasure within her body that was valuable enough to summon a storm of blood. This temptation could turn gods.
But Qin Yu’s reaction was to be taken aback. He hurried up to his feet and supported her. “Yun Die, stand up! We need to discuss this issue first!”
Yun Die whispered, “Teacher, I won’t bother you nor will I ask you to take responsibility. Just regard this as helping this disciple find freedom…

“For me, tonight is nothing but a ridiculous dream. Tomorrow I will forget everything…teacher…teacher…”
Her deep cries were like a cat’s claws, constantly scratching at Qin Yu’s heart. If he said he wasn’t moved by this moment at all, that would only be a lie. However, for him to take advantage of his disciple and do something that wronged them both was impossible.
The reason humans were human was because they knew there were things they could do and things they couldn’t do!
“Yun Die!”
With a shout, Qin Yu stimulated a bit of his blood energy. His blood beat like a loud drum, piercing straight into his mind. As for Yun Die who was leaning against Qin Yu, she cried out loud as her eyes flew open and she fell to the side.
This was too shameful!
Her mind had cleared up. She could hardly believe what she had done. She had actually thrown herself into her teacher’s arms!
Shame, nervousness, fear – all sorts of feelings wove together in her heart, resulting in tears gushing from her eyes. She squatted to her knees and started to cry.
Qin Yu exhaled a breath of relief and took a step back. Seeing that Yun Die was only sobbing bitterly, he relaxed. Just now, he had managed to fend off something so enticing. He really couldn’t help but praise himself for his own moral behavior.
His face stiffened a little…sure enough, if a thought as ridiculous as this could appear in his mind, it showed what a mess his thoughts were in.
Qin Yu forced a smile. He took a seat beside Yun Die and didn’t disturb her. She had accumulated too many emotions in her heart, and it was good for her to vent them.
After a long time, her sobs gradually died down. But, Yun Die still didn’t look up. Qin Yu wasn’t a naïve boy who didn’t understand how to read the hearts of others. He coughed and said, “Alright, it’s late. I am going to go and rest first. If there is anything else then we will talk about it tomorrow.”
It wasn’t the right choice to speak again in the current situation.
Qin Yu stood up and left. When he returned to his room, he heard the sound of footsteps in the reception room.
It was good that Yun Die hadn’t tried to push herself on him again. If he really had to turn away another wave…he feared that he really wouldn’t have been able to resist the temptation that time!
The night passed in silence. Qin Yu cultivated throughout. When he pushed open the door and walked out, Yun Die was already tidying things up in the reception room.

Her cheeks reddened but she was still calm enough as she bowed and said, “Greetings, teacher.”
Qin Yu smiled. “It’s been a long time since I’ve had breakfast. If you can, go and prepare some. Us teacher and disciple can eat together.”
Yun Die relaxed. She hurriedly said, “Yes, teacher, I will go and immediately prepare.”
Some time later, the two were seated across from each other at a dining table. Yun Die’s embarrassed and distressed appearance from last night had completely vanished.
After talking a bit, Qin Yu gave her a word of praise. Then, he dove into the main topic. “Alright, let’s continue our conversation from last night.” If he didn’t raise the subject, he feared that Yun Die would never have the courage to speak about it again.
Yun Die stood up and bowed. “I ask teacher to forgive me for my actions last night…I really…I was really confused…”
Qin Yu smiled. “There’s no need to bring up what has passed. I still have no idea what this treasure is that you speak of, but I am curious.”
Yun Die’s face filled with admiration and disbelief. “Even though I have possessed this treasure for ten years, I still cannot exactly say what sort of treasure it is. But, it is undoubtedly something that can seize the good fortune of the heavens and earth.”
Qin Yu’s eyes brightened. “Sit down and explain.” He knew about Yun Die’s personality; she wasn’t someone who exaggerated things. Since she explained it in such a manner, it could be imagined how precious it was.
“Thank you, teacher.” Yun Die sat down. After preparing herself, she continued to say, “This treasure’s name is the Chaotic Sky Chronicle. It is rumored to have countless wondrous uses, but I have only obtained an ability for beast trainers – as long as I think it, the Chaotic Sky Chronicle will give me an answer.”
Qin Yu was startled. His eyebrows gradually furrowed together in disbelief.
Yun Die nodded. “That’s right. It is exactly as teacher thinks. When I put forth treatment plans for the dark star ice serpent and the Wonder beast, those plans came from the Chaotic Sky Chronicle.”
As she spoke to here, her face flushed red. “I must also apologize to teacher. At the time I was afraid of drawing unnecessary attention so I purposefully altered the treatment plan; this was why it felt as if there was an enormous flaw in it. But as long as it was used for treatment, there would still be a similar effect. I would never think of framing or harming teacher.”
“Wait a moment.” Qin Yu revealed a surprised look. “You said that even if the treatment plan isn’t complete, you can still obtain a qualified result?”
Yun Die sighed inwardly. Teacher really was sharp of mind; he had been able to grasp the key point immediately. She respectfully said, “This was what I was about to say. The Chaotic Sky Chronicle has another astonishing ability – the treatment plans it gives to a beast trainer, whether it is for nurturing, healing, or advancing, they all have mysterious and amazing effects that can turn something rotten into something magical.
“It was because of this that I initially changed the treatment plan. I didn’t want the effects to be too astonishing and draw too much attention. But now, it seemed that I was still too negligent; in the end they managed to find me.”
Qin Yu was silent. Logical reasoning told him that this was simply impossible. How could a treasure possess such unbelievable abilities?
But Yun Die wouldn’t lie to him…
Looking at Qin Yu’s silent expression, Yun Die felt a little helpless. She twisted the hems of her robes and blushed a little as she said, “If…if…if you change your mind…I…I can still give you…the Chaotic Sky Chronicle…”
Qin Yu wryly smiled. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t tempted. If he obtained the Chaotic Sky Chronicle and combined it with the little blue lamp, then he would become a proper and genuine Grand Expert level character. No, he might even be fiercer than a Grand Expert.
But he had sternly refused last night, and just now he had also said to not mention the past. How could he possibly have the idea of taking advantage of his disciple like this?
“Cough! Yun Die, you misunderstood. I am just surprised that such a mysterious treasure exists in this world.” Qin Yu dismissively waved his hand. Then, his expression turned dignified. “If things are as you say, then this Chaotic Sky Chronicle is extremely precious. Since it has been discovered by others, they won’t give up so easily.”
Yun Die shivered. She bitterly nodded, “Teacher is correct.”
Qin Yu asked, “Do you know who killed the several thousand people of your Ying Family?” To know his enemy was always better than being in the dark.
But Yun Die’s answer caused his chest to tighten. “Teacher, I only know that when I was young, an Elder in my family said they were an extremely terrifying influence…”
In other words, she didn’t know anything at all!

RED
Valley City. Up until around twenty years ago, it had been a nowhere place. Just a bunch of towns with no real reputation. Now, though, it's known for its progression in medical science. The Medical Technologies Company. It seemed to suddenly appear out of nowhere in the middle of what's now called City Center. Once just a manufacturer and developer of medical equipment, it eventually started to dabble in medical research. Before anyone even knew it, they were the leading research entities, with five seperate buildings in Valley City alone, all towering above everything else in the area. Some say they even swayed the local government into combining the old towns into one city and popularized prosthetic limbs as fashion themselves, but that's just gossip. Matthew Vega. A 25-year-old college dropout, tricked by MediTech into being experimented on under the pretense of participating in a clinical trial for rent money. After being broken out of their facility nearly a year after having her limbs replaced, then having her liberator captured, she seeks a way to dismantle the company or save the one she cares about. NOTE: Currently I am working on a rewrite. I will post a new chapter once that is ready, listed as V2CH-001. I hope you look forward to it.

The Last Death Mage
Since time immemorial humanity has always feared and shunned what it didn’t understand. Over time this changed a bit to encompass things that didn’t conform to their thoughts and ideals. Due to humanity’s stubbornness with which the enforced their ideals many lives were lost and changed. When humanity first clashed with monsters and the beings that use magic, this trait caused many bloody fights. Over time the fights escalated into battles and full on war on several occasions. Humanity due to their adaptability and persistence won many of these altercations, causing huge casualties to the magical beings. Humanity did not come out unscathed however; many of the empires and civilizations noted in human history fell due to these battles and wars. Eventually over time humanity and the magical beings came to a sort of agreement. Magic and the beings associated with it faded into the background of history, being relegated to myth and legend. Humanity meanwhile advanced leaps and bounds once magic faded, leading to our current level of civilization. Not all magical beings were content with this, thus they did their own actions and killed or fed on humans. This has led to many organizations to be formed concerning this, on both the side of humanity and the side of magical beings. They regulate and control the use of magic as well as protect humanity from the darker things that are now not but myth to them, but there is a reason humanity instinctually fears the dark. Unfortunately there are always those that are unsatisfied by the status quo, and those that are prejudiced against things that are different. This is a story of a young man who wanted nothing more than to be normal. Unfortunately Fate and the world he lives in do not easily allow that this, thus his life changed, not for the better. Everyone has heard of or read stories about monsters and legends, heroes and villains, this is one such story. Hi, this is my second attempt at a story here, the first was before the major overhaul happened and i lost everything related to that story due to PC troubles. I hope you enjoy this if you dont please leave some constructive criticism in the comments. An Editor and the like will be needed, but I will edit as problems are pointed out and as i proof read. This story will have no set schedule, unless of course I decide to type up a bunch in succession then i will note that in a chapter beforehand. ADDED NOTE: most sexual content will be in Interludes or sub chapters with a .5 attached. Profanity and gore however shall be plenty in the actual story, though the descriptives for the gore may be added later. (For example, in the prologue that gave a hint at what happened to the MC, will be enhanced so that the gore invokes more descriptive/complete mental pictures, though it may wait.) ~Tyroth Gideon
