- Chapter 397 - Brother Getting Into The Role Play
The night wind was slightly chilly as stars twinkled.
In the silent courtyard, lights were lit everywhere, and a few raindrops were hanging on the branches of the apricot trees.
Squeak—
Xiao Yunluo slowly pushed open the door, stepped over the threshold, and walked out into the courtyard, rolls of steam following her.
She had just finished bathing, and now she was wearing a slightly transparent dress, her pale purple hair hanging freely on her back. A few water droplets hung on the ends of her hair, and she looked very fresh and moisturized.
After returning to the Black Star Sect in the morning, Ye Anping said that he would accompany Li Longling to the market while waiting for the Dragon House guards to pick her up at dusk.
Therefore, she, Pei Lianxue, and the second idiot first returned to the Black Star Sect to settle some miscellaneous matters and also reported to the Elders what they encountered in the Northern Region.
After dealing with all these things, it was already dusk.
Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die went back to their house, while she flew in a hurry to her place, washed herself thoroughly, and then, fragrant and soft, waited for Ye Anping to come back and enjoy the evening together.
After all, for three years during the Core Formation period, Ye Anping hadn’t touched a woman. Only that one time in Heavenly Wind City when she collaborated with Pei Lianxue, she was satisfied, but for Ye Anping, it would definitely not be enough.
However, Ye Anping also said on the way back that this time, he would probably stay in the Black Star Sect for a long time. Naturally, he would live in her house.
Therefore, Xiao Yunluo was not too anxious.
As long as she took the initiative, once a day should not be a problem, maybe even two or three times a day.
Xiao Yunluo’s cheeks flushed. She took out her lip gloss and dabbed it on her lips. Then, she pursed her lips, picked up the lamp on the table, and walked toward Ye Anping’s bedroom.
First, she knocked on the door. Knock knock~
Then, she softly called out. “Anping~ are you asleep?”
However, there was no movement in the room.
The door opened with a creak. The room was spotlessly clean due to Sister Bai. The pillows and bedding were neatly placed, but there was no one inside.
“Is he not back yet? Is he still with Sister Li…”
Xiao Yunluo puffed up her cheeks and closed the door in disappointment. She was about to return to her room, but after taking a few steps, she thought again. Ye Anping could just be shopping somewhere.
Therefore, she went back into Ye Anping’s bedroom and jumped onto the small single bed. She tried to rub her scent into the pillow and bed sheets, and then lay down and waited.
After a rain shower at dusk, another light rain came not long after, crackling on the tiles of the roof.
With the sound of rain, Xiao Yunluo started to feel sleepy, and after a while, she closed her eyes.
By the time she opened her eyes again, the morning sun was shining through the carved window into the room.
It was dawn, but Anping hadn’t come back yet…
“Sister Xiao! It’s time to go to Mr. Qi’s morning class!”
Feng Yu Die’s voice came from outside the courtyard. Xiao Yunluo took a deep breath, and thinking that he should be back later today, she got up, changed her clothes, and went out the door.
Pei Lianxue was a little surprised to see that she was alone. “Where’s my brother?”
“He didn’t come back last night…”
Feng Yu Die, who was holding a drumstick, looked puzzled. “Eh? Where did Young Master Ye go? Didn’t he say he would be back later?”
“I don’t know. Let’s go to the morning class first…”
The three of them summoned their flying swords and headed straight for the Middle Peak of the Black Star Sect.
As the morning went and the evening came, the golden sun drew an arc from east to west before landing behind the mountain. Three flying swords flew back to the compound.
Xiao Yunluo brought Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die into the house, and the first thing she did was shout. “Anping, are you back?”
However, there was still no one to answer…
The three were slightly disappointed, but they didn’t think much of it.
Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die returned to their complex while Xiao Yunluo revised the Dharma Cultivation Scroll in the courtyard for a while before returning to her room. She washed herself clean and went to lie down in Ye Anping’s bedroom…
Her eyes closed and opened again when the morning bell announced the dawn, and Pei Lianxue’s voice came from outside the yard. “Yunluo! It’s time for morning class…”
Xiao Yunluo touched the cold sheet beside her and pouted in dissatisfaction. She then changed into the Black Star Sect uniform and went to Middle Peak Academy with Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die.
While the sound of reading books rang out rhythmically, the dusk came again.
Xiao Yunluo rushed back to the courtyard to take a look. Seeing that Ye Anping had not returned yet, she started to worry. After thinking for a while, she decided to fly her sword to the bamboo forest on the mountainside of Moon Spring Peak alone.
After mentally preparing for a while, she walked deep into the forest, heading to her mother’s summer residence. Once there, she pulled the door knocker.
Qiu Shuirou slowly opened the door and poked her head out. When she saw Xiao Yunluo, her expression stiffened.N/nêw n0vel chap/ers are published o/n n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m
“Young Miss Xiao? Are you here to look for the Little Miss? Little Miss is sleeping. If you have anything to say, just tell me.”
“Well…” Xiao Yunluo nodded nervously. “Aunt Qiu, I want to borrow the Star Returning Bell from my mother. Ye Anping… he hasn’t come back for two days. Can you…”
“Ah… I’m afraid we’ll have to wait for Little Miss to wake up. I’m afraid to disturb her. It’s not good if she gets angry then.”
“So… Aunt Qiu, have you seen Ye Anping before?”
“We’ve met once… we’re not very familiar with each other.”
“Then, can you help me find him?”
“This… is not very convenient. I still have to take care of the Little Miss.”
“Hey…”
Snap—
After saying that, Qiu Shuirou hurriedly closed the door and almost caught Xiao Yunluo’s hand.
Xiao Yunluo slowly put down her hand, her eyes filled with grievance. “Didn’t you say that my mother is sleeping? Then, what are you still taking care of…”
With a helpless sigh, Xiao Yunluo stepped with her embroidered shoes onto her flying sword and flew back toward Heavenly Cloud Peak.
Qiu Shuirou, who was leaning against the wooden door, heard Xiao Yunluo fly away and felt guilty.
Young Miss Xiao… Don’t blame Aunt Qiu. Little Miss was furious with Sun Juehu previously and Aunt Qiu couldn’t stop her…
Then, she walked back into the house.
As Qiu Shuirou opened the door and walked in, she heard the complaints of the parrot flapping its wings in the birdcage hanging by the window.
Puff puff puff—
“Villains colluded!! Villains colluded!!”
Puff—
“Let me out!! Let me out!!”
Qiu Shuirou looked at this helplessly. She took out a small bag of spiritual rice from her storage bag and put it in front of the birdcage, trying to bribe the parrot. “I can let you out, but you can’t let Young Miss disturb Little Miss. Otherwise, we will all be in trouble.”
“How can I sell myself for a bowl of rice!! How can I bend my waist for a bowl of rice?!”
Speechless, Qiu Shuirou sat at the table, propping her cheeks. She reached her fingers into the birdcage and poked the parrot’s belly.
“What waist? Usually, Little Miss feeds you until your belly bulges…”
The parrot quickly jumped two steps to the other side of the cage, raised its beaks proudly, and croaked contemptuously. “Round and smooth!! Round and smooth like a pearl!”
Qiu Shuirou shook her head, laughing. She picked up the bag of spiritual rice and waved it twice.
“Why are you so stubborn now? Promise me what I asked, and I’ll let you out.”
The parrot glanced at the rice bag that was half the size of Qiu Shuirou’s hand and turned its head away. But it seemed unable to resist the temptation, so it turned its head several times back and forth.
After a moment of silence, it once again spoke arrogantly. “A bowl of rice can bend your waist! The weight of rice can bend your waist!”
“…Good.”
“Villains colluded!! Villains colluded!!”
Qiu Shuirou opened the cage, let the parrot transfer on her fist, then brought it out, scratching its chin with her left hand.
However, she was really curious. Where did Mister Qi find this Golden Feather Parrot? It actually knew the meaning of words, to praise, and blame. It was better than many inner disciples…
“As expected of Mr. Qi. Amazing gift.”
“Talented!! Brilliant!!”
Qiu Shuirou rolled her eyes. She paused, then continued. “How do you say… when your feelings don’t match your words.”
“Not what it seems!! Not what it seems!!”
“A… a pillow of peace*.”
“Anping Xuanji!! Anping Xuanji!!”
Qiu Shuirou’s expression froze, but after hesitating, she decided to continue.
But…
“Well…”
Qiu Shuirou thought for a while, but no other idioms came to mind. In the end, she had no choice but to surrender. She took out a large bag of spiritual rice from her storage bag and placed it on the table, sighing slowly.
“Sigh…”
I can’t even beat a bird…
…
The stars moved while the sun and the moon rotated once again.
The morning bell rang again, announcing a new day in the Black Star Sect.
The window on the second floor of Happy Couple Pavilion was opened, and a ray of morning light shone neatly into the window lattice, reflecting above the black and white eyelashes.
Si Xuanji slowly opened her eyes. There was a little more warmth in her yin-yang eyes than usual. She turned her head and looked out the window.
It was morning again…
If she remembered correctly, it was already the third morning.
She slowly let out a breath and looked at her chest. The young man with his eyes closed was sleeping peacefully on her chest, his arms around her waist.
That handsome face had not completely lost its youthfulness, and his peaceful and stable expression was like a baby’s sleeping soundly and relaxed in his mother’s arms.
After watching for a while, Si Xuanji’s eyes showed a hint of affection. Then, she raised her small hand and gently smoothed his hair.
When Sun Juehu came before, she said that he would definitely satisfy her.
Si Xuanji was initially skeptical, thinking that Ye Anping was only at the Core Formation stage, so how could he possibly satisfy her?
But now, she had to admit that she had underestimated him.
She had heard some rumors in the past. It was said that Yun Tianchong of the Moon Shadow Sword Sect could wrestle with a woman for a day and a night after reaching the Deification stage.
However, Ye Anping was only at the Core Formation stage, and it had been three days and three nights…
Although it had something to do with the Nine Elements of Heart technique that he had learned and his inexplicable excessively yang constitution, still…
He was able to satisfy a Void Returning stage cultivator like her with his Core Formation cultivation.
“You really make it difficult for me…”
Si Xuanji smiled slightly, shook her head, and sighed before poking his cheek.
“How great would it be if you had a heavenly spiritual root? I wouldn’t have to hide my identity from you then, but this dual spiritual root aptitude… Sigh–”
Probably because of Si Xuanji’s voice, Ye Anping’s tightly closed eyelids trembled slightly. He slowly opened them, revealing his somewhat confused dark purple eyes.
Si Xuanji saw this and quickly changed back into the insulted novel heroine from earlier. She bit her lower lip lightly, two tears forming in the corner of her eyes.
“Woo…”
Ye Anping only felt his mind was blank. He couldn’t even remember anything. He tried to slowly prop himself up, but his whole body felt extremely weak and he had no strength.
However, when he saw Si Xuanji’s eyes staring at him full of grievance, he felt as if he had suddenly come under a waterfall.
The sensation of cold water suddenly awakened his memory.
Ye Anping looked out the window. It was dawn…
—So it’s been just one night? How long did he sleep?
“Young Master Ye… you… you… woo… sniff–”
Si Xuanji sniffed, and the tears hanging in the corners of her eyes thickened and swayed.
Ye Anping was still a little confused, and he hurriedly propped himself up and looked down.
The ‘white jade tiger cub’s’ mouth was slowly oozing white foam after eating its fill…
“…”
“Sniff… sniff…”
Si Xuanji’s nose twitched, and her expression was extremely aggrieved. Seeing Ye Anping’s stunned expression, she bit her lip slightly, raised her bare foot, and kicked him in the nose.
Ye Anping didn’t react in time and was kicked down by the small foot. He fell out of the bed and rolled on the wooden floor before sitting up.
He didn’t even care about his headache after hitting the ground. He took a few deep breaths and calmed down a bit.
Then, he looked up at the bed…
At this moment, Si Xuanji gently pulled the quilt with one hand to cover herself. There was some embarrassment and anger in her yin-and-yang eyes as she stared at his face.
“…”
“…”
Silence…
Still silence…
He opened and closed his mouth several times, imagining “Feng Yu Die eating roasted chicken” to cool himself down quickly.
It seemed that Si Xuanji still wanted to hide her identity, so he had no choice but to cooperate, out of respect for the elders and love for the young…
“Miss Xuanji… well… I’m sorry, the situation was urgent.”
“I did promise to help you eliminate the yang excess, but you’re too ruthless… I’m smaller than my sister. Master Ye, don’t you know how to cherish a girl…”
Si Xuanji’s aggrieved, resentful, and pitiful look made Ye Anping’s heart itch, but he was speechless.
Isn’t this old woman pretending to be a little girl too much?
Then don’t blame me for responding in kind!
Ye Anping pretended to be flustered and stood up. Then, he walked to the bedside. “Miss Xuanji, I will take responsibility for you, just like with your sister. I will definitely treat you well in the future. You saved my life this time… I will give you whatever you want.”
“…Liar.”
“Then, I’ll show you my sincerity, okay?”
As he said this, Ye Anping looked around. He picked up the storage bag, took out a dagger, and pointed the tip at his chest. Gathering his spiritual strength, he suddenly stabbed himself.
Are you for real?!!
Si Xuanji initially thought that Ye Anping was putting on an act to appease her, but when she saw the spiritual light, her eyes instantly widened. She quickly reached out to grab the dagger in his hand and tackled him to the ground.
Then, sitting on top of him, she scolded him with a frown. “Are you stupid?!”
Ye Anping pretended to be an innocent little lamb, looking around in panic and stuttering. “Ah… but… but… I’m sorry, Miss Xuanji…”
She didn’t expect this boy to be so innocent. He was so collected before…
Si Xuanji was pretty excited to see another side of Ye Anping. She had always thought that he was quite cold in the past and displayed a calmness that didn’t match his age.
However, it turned out he was still a little naive…
So cute…
Si Xuanji slowly exhaled. “After all, I have promised you in the past. I’m just complaining that you don’t know how to cherish a girl… You’re like a bull…”
“Ah…”
Ye Anping was secretly delighted. It seemed that his acting skills were better than hers. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, showing that he had calmed down. His eyes returned to their usual composure.
“Miss Xuanji, I was a little too flustered just now…”
“I could see that.”
Si Xuanji pondered for a while. Her current cultivation level should have reached the Core Formation stage like Xiao Yunluo, but a Core Formation cultivator could not withstand Ye Anping’s intensity…
“Master Ye… can you carry me to take a bath? I have no strength in my arms and legs…”
Ye Anping wanted to say that he was the one with no strength in his legs right now, but since Si Xuanji wanted to act, what could he do?
He couldn’t just stay there like this…
So he had no choice but to agree and, propping up his weak body, slowly carried Si Xuanji like a princess, walking toward the bathtub on the other side of the room step by step.
Then, he went back to get the storage bag and used the flint and water stone to heat the water in the basin. After sprinkling some flower petals and perfume, he started to cook the “Xuanji Soup”.
