BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 354: Han Xue!

“Father, there’s a long story behind all this. I’ll explain everything when we return!”

“Oh, by the way, I haven’t introduced you yet. This is my senior sister, Zi Yan.”

“Senior sister Zi Yan, this is my father. Over there is my second uncle, and that person is…”

Han Yue smiled as she introduced Zi Yan to each member of her family.

“Hello, everyone!”

After Han Yue finished the introductions, Zi Yan waved her hand towards the Han family with a bright smile, showing a row of pearly white teeth.

Although Zi Yan’s way of greeting seemed rather casual, which could be perceived as disrespectful by more particular individuals, Han Yue was quite satisfied with her behavior. At the very least, Zi Yan wasn’t calling them “old geezers” like she did with the elders at the academy.

Upon hearing Zi Yan’s youthful voice, both Han Yue’s father and her second uncle were somewhat surprised, but their faces were filled with smiles.

Zi Yan’s cultivation level was somewhat concealed, but the family members could still sense the powerful force hidden within her.

“Haha, since Miss Zi Yan is Yue’er’s senior sister, please feel at home here, just as if it were your own!” Han Yue’s father said kindly after Zi Yan greeted them.

“Thank you!” Zi Yan politely nodded in response.

“Father, I’ll take senior sister to go ahead first. We’ll talk more later!” Han Yue said cheerfully to the man in the brocade robe before ordering the purple magic eagle to descend.

...

“Sister, you’re back!”

Just as they landed in a spacious courtyard, a crisp voice echoed from the entrance.

Hearing this familiar voice, a joyful expression immediately appeared on Han Yue’s face.

When she looked toward the entrance, she saw a graceful young girl quickly running toward her.

The girl, around seventeen years old, had eyebrows as delicate as willow leaves and skin as fair as snow. She was tall, wearing a purple dress that accentuated her curvy figure. Even at such a young age, she already showed the elegance of a blossoming beauty.

“Sister, Xue’er missed you so much!”

Despite being curious about the enormous purple magic eagle, the girl in the purple dress first rushed to embrace Han Yue.

“Xue’er, you little rascal, you’ve grown into such a beauty in just a few years!” Han Yue said affectionately, her eyes filled with a doting expression.

“Ah, no way! Xue’er isn’t half as beautiful as you, sister!”

Hearing Han Yue’s words, Han Xue’s cheeks turned slightly red, and she shyly responded.

However, after saying that, Han Xue noticed the little girl in white standing beside Han Yue. She had seen this little girl dismount the purple magic eagle with her sister, so she curiously asked, “Sister, who is this little girl? She’s so cute and pretty!”

Upon hearing Han Xue’s words, the smile on Han Yue’s face suddenly froze. She then seriously introduced, “Xue’er, don’t be rude. This is my senior sister! You should address her as Sister Zi Yan!”

“Ah!”

Hearing Han Yue’s suddenly stern tone, Han Xue, who was familiar with her sister’s temperament, was puzzled but quickly felt like a child who had made a mistake. She hurriedly apologized to Zi Yan, saying, “Sister Zi Yan… I’m so sorry for earlier…”

Back at Jia Nan Academy, Zi Yan would have been furious whenever someone called her “little girl” or similar terms. But today, when Han Xue said it, Zi Yan didn’t feel any anger; in fact, she even felt somewhat pleased.

Before Han Xue could finish her apology, Zi Yan interrupted her with her childish voice.

"Hehe, do you really mean it? Am I truly both pretty and cute?"

Hearing Zi Yan's tone, both Han Yue and Han Xue immediately felt relieved.

"Of course it’s true, Sister Zi Yan!" Han Xue smiled sweetly, calling out to Zi Yan.

"Hehe, I like hearing what you say, little sister Xue’er. Since this is our first time meeting, I’ll give you a gift!" Zi Yan chuckled again, then pulled out a white jade bottle from her storage ring and handed it to Han Xue.

"Xue’er, Senior Sister Zi Yan is giving you something. Why aren't you saying thank you?" Han Yue reminded her, noticing Han Xue’s hesitation.

Upon hearing Han Yue’s words, Han Xue no longer hesitated. She reached out, took the white jade bottle from Zi Yan, and said happily, "Thank you, Sister Zi Yan!"

"You're welcome! Hurry up and take a look inside!" Zi Yan waved her hand casually.

Originally, out of politeness, Han Xue wasn’t planning to check the gift right then, but since Zi Yan had suggested it, she didn’t hold back. She immediately opened the jade bottle.

As soon as it was opened, a rich fragrance of medicinal herbs filled the air, intoxicating Han Xue with its aroma.

"Sister Zi Yan, what kind of pill is this?" Han Xue asked excitedly.

"Hehe, Master said it's a sixth-grade pill. I can’t quite remember its exact name," Zi Yan replied with a slightly embarrassed smile. She had assumed Han Xue would recognize it.

"A sixth-grade pill!"

Upon hearing Zi Yan’s words, Han Xue became thrilled. After all, the alchemist the Han family revered could only craft fifth-grade pills. Pills of the sixth grade were extremely rare, and the Han family barely had a few in their possession. The fact that Zi Yan had casually given such a valuable pill as a meeting gift left Han Xue astonished.

"Sister Zi Yan, this gift is too precious! I can’t accept it!" Han Xue quickly put the cap back on the bottle and tried to return it to Zi Yan.

"It’s no big deal, just a sixth-grade pill. I have plenty of them! I also have seventh-grade pills if you prefer. If you don't want this one, you can take one of these!" Zi Yan pulled out two more jade bottles from her storage ring, each containing seventh-grade pills.

"Seventh...grade…pills…"

At this point, Han Xue began to stammer in shock, clearly overwhelmed.

After a moment, when she had finally processed everything, Han Xue decided to accept the original sixth-grade pill Zi Yan had first offered.

After that, Han Yue softly suggested to Zi Yan, "Senior sister, how about I accompany you over the next few days to explore the city and let you experience the atmosphere of my hometown?"

"A few days of fun?" Zi Yan was tempted by the offer but hesitated as she remembered her task.

"Sister Zi Yan, I know this place well. Before, when my sister wasn’t home, I had no interest in going out. But now, it’s perfect! The three of us can go out together!" Han Xue excitedly chimed in, eager for the adventure.
