Chapter 123 The Popular Yaoyao

Grandma Lai Ping was naturally delighted to see her old friend again. A kind smile appeared on her face as she asked, "Liu Yun? When was the last time you appeared in this form?"

Liu Yun couldn't help but frown after hearing this, and replied in a serious tone: "You don't know the age in the mountains, and time doesn't mean much to me. On the contrary, it's really boring with only those old guys on the mountain, so I wanted to come to Liyue Harbor to see if there is anything interesting. As a result, I saw Yaoyao outside Liyue Harbor, and just when I wanted to say hello, I saw the hill people behind Yaoyao. Fortunately, Yuegui is here, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable! Ping, Yaoyao is also half my apprentice, I can't rest assured like this." His eyes revealed worry and dissatisfaction about Yaoyao's safety.

Grandma Ping sighed and said, "Liuyun, you know, although we have long lifespans, we are not immortal. Yaoyao is still young and has a long way to go. If she continues to live under our protection, how can she grow? That's why I want to teach Yaoyao martial arts and let her go out into the wild alone."

Liu Yun frowned and said, "But don't you know how dangerous it is out there? Liyue Harbor is full of Hilichurls and treasure-stealing groups. Yaoyao is still so young, she'll definitely be their target."

Grandma Ping smiled helplessly: "Liuyun, of course I know it's dangerous outside, but this is also a necessary test. If we can't even overcome this little danger, then how can Yaoyao grow? Besides, I believe in Yaoyao, she will definitely not let us down."

Liu Yun was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Forget it, forget it, Yaoyao is your personal disciple. No matter how you train her, you must ensure her safety, otherwise I will take her to Aozang Mountain."

Yaoyao walked up to Grandma Ping and asked, "Master, are you arguing with this aunt?"

Grandma Ping handed Yaoyao the magic weapon she had just made and explained, "No, no, this magic weapon can detect things around you. If you encounter danger, it will warn you in time. Remember to carry it with you at all times. By the way, this is your Aunt Liuyun."

Yaoyao blinked her big eyes, touched her chin, and asked curiously: "Aunt Liuyun? Isn't she the big talking bird? Could it be that..."

Liu Yun felt somewhat helpless after hearing this. He transformed back into his true form, spread his wings, and landed gracefully on the ground. He looked at Yaoyao with a smile and said, "Yaoyao, you should recognize me now."

Yaoyao's eyes lit up in surprise, and she clapped her hands happily and laughed, "Wow! It really is Aunt Liuyun! Is Aunt Liuyun here to see Master?"

Grandma Ping smiled and patted Yaoyao's head, gently persuading her, "Alright, Liuyun, quickly transform into your human form. Nothing's happening in Liyue Harbor right now, and if anyone else sees you like this, it might cause unnecessary trouble."

Liu Yun nodded and transformed back into human form. He gently stroked Yaoyao's little head, his eyes full of love. "Yaoyao, would you like to go to Aozang Mountain with Auntie to play for a few days? I have many more magic weapons there than your master does. You can have fun there to your heart's content."

Yaoyao tilted her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head and replied, "No, Aunt Liuyun. Yaoyao still needs to practice hard with Master these days. But when Yaoyao finishes her practice, she will definitely go to visit Aunt Liuyun, and then we can go to Aozang Mountain together."

"Hahaha," Grandma Ping laughed, "Liuyun, you should give up now."

Liu Yun snorted softly, "Humph, as expected. Yaoyao is so sensible, of course she won't delay her cultivation."

"If you're really bored, why not move to Liyue Harbor? It's much more interesting here than in the mountains. Oh, and this guy is very interested in mechanical engineering. Do you want to..."

"My mechanical skills are not something that ordinary people can understand. It's not easy to become my disciple."

Liu Yun glanced at Xin Yang standing beside him, looked him up and down, and said, "However, if he really has some talent and sincerity, it's not impossible to consider him."

Xin Yang hurried forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Master Liuyun, the art of mechanism is truly amazing. I have many ideas that may become reality with the help of mechanism."

"Based solely on your one-sided statement, why would I accept you as my disciple? Do you have any experience in this area? Or how can you prove to me that your ideas can come true?"

Linghua pulled out a book from somewhere and handed it to Liuyun. "You may not know, Master Zhenjun, but Xinyang is a light novel writer. This light novel was written by Xinyang. I believe that after you read it, you will understand that what Xinyang said just now is true."

Liu Yun took the light novel and said, "Okay, give me some time. I will give you an answer after I read it."

Liu Yun took the light novel and walked to the side, quietly flipping through it. Everyone waited quietly, the atmosphere slightly tense.

After a while, Liu Yun closed the book with a complicated expression on his face. He looked at Xin Yang and said, "Did you really complete this light novel by yourself?"

Xinyang shook her head. "No, to be precise, Linghua and I completed it together."

Linghua quickly waved her hands, "No, no, no, I just helped with the drawing. I was able to write this book thanks to Xinyang."

"You have quite a rich imagination, but I need you to elaborate on the connection between this novel and mechanical engineering."

Xin Yang took a deep breath and began to explain, "Master Liuyun, although the many fantastic scenes and contraptions in this novel are presented in a fantasy form, I believe they are not impossible to achieve with the ingenious construction and principles of mechanical engineering. For example, the self-flying boats described in the book might become a reality if we could develop the right power plant and balancing mechanism."

Liu Yun nodded slightly, a hint of appreciation in his eyes. "Well, that's a good idea, but to implement it, you need a solid foundation in mechanical engineering. Are you prepared for the hardship?"

Xin Yang replied firmly, "Master, I have already made up my mind. No matter how difficult it is, I will not back down."

Liu Yun clapped his hands and said, "Okay, then I will make an exception and accept both of you as my disciples."

"The two of us?" Linghua was a little confused.

"Of course, you two are the authors of this book. If I were to accept disciples, I would accept both of you at the same time."

Xinyang leaned close to Linghua's ear and whispered, "If you don't like it, just say it. The True Lord won't make it difficult for us."

Linghua shook her head and said, "No, I want to learn. I can't let this opportunity go. I want to compete with you to see who can learn faster."
