After taking a moment to recall the sect rules, Yuan opened his eyes and spoke in a nervous voice, "According to the sect rules, male and female disciples are forbidden to share the same living quarters unless they are married or have a high-ranking sect elder's permission, and the punishment is at most 3 months of confinement in the Disciplinary Cave..."

Fei Yuyan was speechless. Albeit subtly, did Yuan really just refuse her company in his house? What kind of man would refuse to let a beautiful girl stay in their house even if they might receive punishment? If it were any other men that were in Yuan's shoes right now, they would definitely let Fei Yuyan stay in their living quarters without hesitation even if they were to get kicked out of the sect the following day!

Fei Yuyuan then spoke with a slight frown on her face, "That rulebook is outdated— it was created thousands of years ago and nobody except a few really even follows it anymore, especially the Inner Court disciples. Furthermore, as a Core Disciple, I have more leeway in the sect. In other words, I can do almost whatever I want without restrictions if it doesn't affect the sect."

"And I highly doubt that living in a house with a male disciple will affect the sect in any way. Therefore, you can just ignore it."

"Even if you say that, I think it'd be for the best if we received permission from one of the sect elders, as you can never be too safe or you might regret it in the future. I know a few of them, so I can ask them." Yuan suddenly retrieved Elder Xuan's jade slip and activated it using his spiritual energy.

"Uhhh… Senior Xuan, can you hear me?" Yuan spoke to the jade slip.

Meanwhile, sitting behind his desk inside his living quarters, Elder Xuan felt the jade slip in his robes tremble, causing him to stop working and look at it.

'Hm? Disciple Yuan? Did something happen to him?' Elder Xuan frowned with a worried look on his face, wondering what Yuan had done this time.

"Senior Xuan, can you hear me? I hope I am not bothering you," Yuan's voice resounded from the jade slip a moment later.

"Yes, I can hear you. What happened?" Elder Xuan asked him.

"Well…" Yuan proceeded to explain the situation to Elder Xuan, dumbfounding him greatly.
