Help, What Should I Do If The Person Who Likes Me Is a Yandere! - Chapter 51:

Chapter 51: This is a Huge Misunderstanding:

Feeling the embrace of his master, Xu Ze gradually calmed down from his initial confusion. He could sense the terrifying cold aura emanating from Leng Youran.

“Master… what’s wrong?” Xu Ze suppressed his inner excitement and asked in a low voice.

“Ze’er… do you still remember the teachings I’ve taught to you?” Leng Youran asked softly.

Xu Ze was stunned for a moment, then nodded in confusion.

Seeing this, Leng Youran took a deep breath. She closed her eyes, and after a long pause, released Xu Ze from her embrace.

By this time, she had already reverted to her usual cold demeanor as the head of the Heavenly Dark Sect. Her beautiful face was again exuding an icy aloofness.

“This master trusts Ze’er,” she said. “Ze’er will never disappoint me.”

Xu Ze was still at a loss. “Master, what exactly happened?”

Leng Youran’s face darkened, but she didn’t answer. She couldn’t bring herself to say it—that she was being pressured to have her beloved disciple marry some so-called princess. She couldn’t bring herself to speak!

On one side was the plea from her junior sister; on the other was the disciple she could never let go of. If Leng Youran had to choose, she would undoubtedly choose Xu Ze without hesitation. But making that choice would mean laying bare her feelings to the world.

A sect master, who was hundreds of years old, falling for her own disciple?

If that got out, Leng Youran would lose all face for the rest of her life. Furthermore, she didn’t even know how Xu Ze would react if he discovered her true feelings.

So, Leng Youran had no choice but to let Xu Ze decide.

“For nearly 20 years, I’ve instilled in you the belief that lust is more dangerous than a tiger, urging you to focus on cultivation.”

“And Ze’er has always listened to me. He would never do anything to disappoint me!”

“Ze’er, my Ze’er…” Though her thoughts were a raging torrent, Leng Youran forced herself to remain calm.

“Ze’er, no matter what happens, you must always remember my teachings. Everything must be for the sake of cultivation!” She said.

She emphasized the words “cultivation,” trying to preserve the last shred of her dignity as the sect master.

Xu Ze, still confused, nodded blankly. His head was filled with question marks.

Could it be that his cultivation efforts haven’t been sufficient lately?

But with the system’s support and the constant self-cultivation of the Profound Darkness Technique day and night, Xu Ze felt his progress was already incredibly fast. If he wanted to go any faster, the only option might be dual cultivation…

No way!

Could it be that Master was subtly hinting that he shouldn’t focus solely on pure cultivation but should also explore some unorthodox methods?

Xu Ze clearly misunderstood Leng Youran’s words. But upon further reflection, Xu Ze suddenly had a moment of clarity.

“Yes, it must be because the Xuan Dao Human Alliance has been targeting the Heavenly Dark Sect in recent years, and Master is worried that my cultivation level is too shallow to stand by her side and defend the sect.”

“Master is hinting that I should try any means necessary to become stronger, even if they are less-than-honorable methods.”

Xu Ze looked at Leng Youran with newfound respect.

“Yes, Master, I understand!” Xu Ze said earnestly. “From now on, I will give my all to cultivation and constantly strive to become stronger!”

Leng Youran glanced at Xu Ze, feeling that his understanding seemed a bit off. However, with his intelligence, it shouldn’t be too far off the mark.

Leng Youran gave him a look of approval. As long as Xu Ze’s determination remained firm, no matter how Su Qianxue tried to seduce him, he wouldn’t fall for that girl’s tricks.

‘Hmph… Want to take my Ze’er away? Dream on! Ze’er belongs to me! Only to me!’

Clenching her fists secretly, Leng Youran’s thoughts grew even more frenzied. She hadn’t noticed that, due to recent doubts and insecurities, her mindset was gradually shifting. The heart of a ‘benevolent master’ had already begun to deteriorate, stepping toward an irredeemable abyss…

…

As night fell, Xu Ze returned to the royal residence arranged for him, yawning. His master had clearly been in a high-spirited mood today. Not only had she dragged him to drink for half the day, but in a fit of joy, she had even hummed a little tune under the influence of alcohol.

This gave Xu Ze a new perspective on his usually aloof master. Who would have thought that someone so cold and distant could be so lively after getting drunk?

“Ah~ if only she wasn’t my master…” Xu Ze thought drunkenly.

Everyone appreciates beauty. For someone as stunning as Leng Youran, there was likely no one else like her in the world. Even though the age gap between them was ridiculously large, in the cultivation world, a few hundred years was merely a blink of an eye. Xu Ze didn’t mind.

However, precisely because she was his master, and because she was the so-called ‘Ruthless Supreme’ at the peak Supreme Realm, the enormous gap in status gave Xu Ze pause. Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare have any improper thoughts.

Still, as Xu Ze recalled the embrace she had given him earlier in the afternoon, he couldn’t help but feel a bit sentimental.

Laying down on the bed, Xu Ze closed his eyes, drowsily preparing to sleep.

But just then, a sudden voice from the system echoed in his ears.

[Random Mission Activated!]

[Host must punish the intruder within two hours!]

In an instant, Xu Ze’s drowsiness vanished, and his blurry eyes became clear.
