Boring Life Of Conformity

Lean was mulling over that unprecedented flame. Up until then, she had been cultivating methodically, sticking to the methods passed down by her master. What surprised her the most was the simplicity with which this aspect of the fire laws was explained in her mind.

The hidden master didn't teach cultivation directly; he just revealed some depths about mastering fire, pointing the way and giving suggestions on how to follow it.

Still, she had to walk that path on her own. It was a very different approach from the Elders of the sect, who even sent fragments of their own laws to the disciples' cores.

She looked at him, shaken. Those Yin flames seemed like the perfect fit for her essence, as if they had always been a part of her but had separated for some mysterious reason.

"Thank you, sir." She bowed deeply before him.
