Inside his room, Fu Zian hurriedly pa.s.sed the damp washclothes across the upper part of his body, cleansing the sweat and dust that formed from his stay at the training ground, an open s.p.a.ce in direct touch with nature and soft earth. The day wasn"t as sunny which would have made the YuanLi senior disciple to take a bath in the stream rather than cleaning his skin using a basin filled with ordinary water and washcloth."Senior Fu! Are you about done?!"
Chao Yikun called out to Fu Zian outside the door of bedchambers.
Not one to allow anyone in his room while he was changing his robes, he let the other disciple wait outside rather than inviting him into the room.
Inside was neatly laid out, there was drappery of soft silk on the overhead of the bed, a desk with an incense burner and his purple zither was placed not far off from where he laid his head at night. A screen was in one corner of the room, meant to serve as an area where he could take his bath without joining the other disciples in the stream that flowed behind the sect quarters.
"I"m putting on my robes!"
Chao Yikun had to stiffle the laugh that he felt would come tumbling out when he heard the voice of Fu Zian which sounded as those he was under pressure.
Not too long after, dressed in a robe of silver and black with his hair held in a ribbon whose ends ran down his back was Fu Zian who stepped out of his room in readiness to see his sect leader.
As a senior disciple of the YuanLi sect, they were allowed to wear robes that was not the color of the sect. This was a way to reward the effort put into a higher level of spiritual energy and giving the semblance of them not under heavy restriction.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"Senior Fu, are you not just going to see sect leader? Why are you dressed as though you are about to impress your father-in-law?!"
Chao Yikun could not hide his surprise, when he saw the robes of Fu Zian they s.h.i.+mmered and looked very elegant and rested well on him.
"It is good to dress well, you never know what good fortune it would bring!"
Meanwhile, Fu Zian delibrately chose the robes he had on, not because he was trying to impress the sect leader, but to garner the interest of Xu Hui. As much as the senior disciple hated to admit it, a part of him was drawn to the woman that was acting as his sect leader"s daughter.
"Senior Fu, isn"t this too much to go meet sect leader? I haven"t seen you in anything that stands out!"
Chao Yikun youthful eyes curiously searched the face of Fu Zian to see if he had other reasons apart from the one that he gave.
"Chao Yikun! Stop being frivolous and let"s be on our way!"
Knowing that the disciple was starting to see through him, Fu Zian jumped into action to steer him off course.
