The new disciples looked at the signs placed before them by Qi Yu and the others, their expressions filled with disbelief.
For a moment, they didn't know which one to choose.
Fortunately, choosing a master wasn't an urgent matter; they had two more days to consider.
So, Qi Yu left the signs in place, telling them that if anyone wished to choose her, they only needed to hang their Chang Qing Sect waist token on her sign, and then she slowly departed.
On the way back to the sect leader's room, Si Qing looked at Qi Yu and said in a low voice, "Sister, we haven't been back to the 13th Heaven in a long time. I think we should go back and check on it first. Although my clone is helping manage the 13th Heaven, and Jin Yan and Yu Yuan are also there, I still feel uneasy."
What if something chaotic happened in the 13th Heaven again?
Qi Yu thought Si Qing's words made a lot of sense.
After discussing it, the two of them flew to the 13th Heaven together to see the current situation.
Meanwhile, in the Thirteenth Heaven.
Jin Yan and Yu Yuan were almost driven mad.
The clone Si Qing had left behind was handling its assigned duties, but it refused to do anything beyond its responsibilities.
Qi Yu hadn't left a clone at all.
This resulted in Jin Yan and Yu Yuan not only having to do their own work but also taking on Qi Yu's heavenly duties.
The two of them were so busy in the 13th Heaven that they didn't even have time to drink water or eat.
They sat for the entire day, and the days in the 13th Heaven were long, with no distinction between day and night. Therefore, they sometimes didn't even know how long they had been at their posts, only knowing that they were constantly working.
As Jin Yan worked for a long time, his patience gradually wore thin, and his temper became increasingly explosive. If anyone under him made even a small mistake, the entire dragon would fly into a rage:
"How many times have I told you, it can't be written like this here? You write it like this in every single book. How many times do I have to repeat myself? Honestly, if you can't understand it at all, then find someone else. Why do you always send this guy to me?"
Jin Yan was furious, wishing he could grab the little heavenly soldier by the collar.
The little heavenly soldier trembled with fear.
Yu Yuan quickly intervened, "Jin Yan, you'll scare him to death. This part of the Sanskrit text looks very similar, so it's inevitable that mistakes will be made. If you're so worried about even the slightest error that you can't forgive it, then you should write it yourself."
"Yu Yuan, what's wrong with you? You're even defending him. If that's the case, then you write it for him." Jin Yan threw the notebook on the ground, feeling like he was about to explode.
What kind of rotten job was this?
He was immersed in work all day. When a matter in the east was resolved, he had to deal with something in the west. Once the west was handled, he had to take care of the south. Just when he thought he could finally catch his breath, new tasks immediately came his way.
Jin Yan scratched his head, his hair standing on end in an explosion of disarray.
Yu Yuan glanced at Jin Yan, who was in a state of complete breakdown, and after a moment of silence, he tried to comfort him, "It's okay, it's okay. When the Heavenly Dao and the Laws return, we'll tell them to think of a solution and find more people to help, then we'll be able to relax a bit."
Hearing this, Jin Yan was even more incensed. He pointed towards the sky and said in exasperation, "Do you think those two lazy bums, Qi Yu and Si Qing, are capable of that? Especially Qi Yu, she's too irresponsible as the Heavenly Dao, a complete hands-off manager!"
"You can't really say that," Yu Yuan mused. "After helping so much, I can understand why Qi Yu finds being the Heavenly Dao so bothersome and doesn't want to manage things."
"It's because the work of the Heavenly Dao listening to the heartbeats of all beings in the three realms is simply too boring. As the Heavenly Dao, you can only listen to the thoughts of all beings in the three realms, but you can't act according to your own will after listening. You can only quietly listen. So why must the Heavenly Dao do this? Can't someone just help listen?"
What Yu Yuan truly meant was that if he were the Heavenly Dao, he might also find someone to help listen to the heartbeats of all beings in the realms.
After all, who would want to spend their days listening without being able to do anything, and in such a tedious manner?
Jin Yan looked at Yu Yuan, "I have the same thought. I just hate that I have to do it."
As he spoke, he pounded the table furiously, "Back then, they said we'd have the same treatment as the Heavenly Dao, and I actually believed it. But what is this? This is just doing odd jobs! Bah, it's not even doing odd jobs. You have to do everything, and almost no one can help."
"When you said the same status as the Heavenly Dao, is this the kind of equality you meant? It's utterly unreasonable, you've deceived us!"
The more Jin Yan spoke, the angrier he became, his head feeling like it was about to smoke.
Yu Yuan wanted to say something, but Jin Yan had already said it all, so he could only stand by and offer his silent support.
"Oh dear, I must not have explained it clearly to you. Of course, it's the same treatment as the Heavenly Dao, but as you can see, the Heavenly Dao's work is just this busy," Qi Yu said with a troubled expression. "So let me explain properly, the Heavenly Dao treatment I gave you is truly the same."
