Shen Qingqiu had at first only wanted to stand by the sidelines and watch the peaklords train the desciples on the huge space in front of Qiong Ding Hall and disdainfully look at them from behind his fan, however as he looked on he grew a little restless.

He watched Shen Yuan teach his desciples how to perform a certain sword slash, however, due to his original body being less trained than Shen Qingqiu's he had struggles doing it right and he was practically messing up the children's technique.

Luo Binghe, too respectful to undermine his teacher's authority, didn't dare intercept. Neither did the other peaklords who were either training their own desciples or helping the ones of the other. Even the demons were busy sparring with the desciples to be an example for an enemy.

Shen Qingqiu never cared if his desciples had a messed up cultivation. The more inferior the better. One less threat to him. However, he didn't know why, but his eye started twitching wildly the more he watched on. He didn't know why, but the urge to step in grew larger and larger. He threw a little side glance at Yue Qingyuan who was calmly standing a few steps beside him.

He had taken these few steps after Shen Qingqiu had told him to "Scram". But to his displeasure ni matter how mean he looked, the other would only take a few steps away and refused to leave completely. What a nuisance. He turned his attention back to the abomination calling itself 'training', so he could be annoyed about something else that didn't trigger his brain to make assumptions again that would yet again cause him naught but pain in the future.

Shen Yuan had appearently finished teaching the first move and went on to teaching another one now. Veins were starting to show onnthe hand with which Shen Qingqiu was holding his fan.

Shen Yuan slashed, Shen Qingqiu's eyes twitched. Shen Yuan spun in the air, another vein began pulsating on Shen Qingqiu's temple. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself. As he opened them again, Shen Yuan staggered almost unnoticibly and Shen Qingqiu snapped.

"Are you even taking this seriously?!", he asked, eyes burning with fury.

He had snapped his fan shut and stared angrily at the flabbergasted Shen Yuan.

"I'm afraid I don't understand?", Shen Yuan said with slight confusion.

He had in fact not been as bad as Shen Qingqiu made him out to be in his mind. It's true that due to his body's current conditions he was inferior to a peak lord, however he was still better than any martial arts master of his world. He couldn't understand the other's reaction at all for he also didn't expect him to be triggered by something like this.

"Your technique! If you wish to teach your desciples wrongly you can go right ahead, but if not you should probably think about letting someone else do it."

Shen Yuan finally understood. He looked wide-eyed at Shen Qingqiu. That man truely was the last person he would have thought to belittle someone for training their desciple wrongly. It was also totally out of character for him to be so mad about it too.

But instead of worrying about it, Shen Yuan instead smiled.

"I'm sorry peak lords Shen", he said,"I was unaware. If you will, please show us how it's done right."

It wasn't that he didn't know how to do it. He just saw it as a chance to integrate the other man into the group. He pulled Xiu Ya from his waist and mentally said goodbye to his old friend.

"Here. This is yours anyway. I wasn't planning on keeping it so I might as well give it back now."

Shen Qingqiu hesitated for a moment. It was as if he had just now realised what he had done. It had felt for a second as if he hadn't been himself, but he also didn't think Shen Yuan would be so nice to him even though he had just yelled at him.
