The moonlight shone brightly in the bathhouse.
Jiang Huai looked down. Although his vision was slightly blurred from drinking, the touch of his fingertips was incredibly clear. He tried to open his eyes wider, seeing his Master’s flushed, soft soles, her round and delicate, lustrous pale pink ankles, and the ten slender jade toes arranged neatly at her toes, more tender than flowers and more lustrous than jade.
It’s over! You’re ruined by Chu Xianning for life!
Jiang Huai had secretly gazed at Chu Xianning’s white and tender little feet since he was a child. They had the slender curves of a maiden and the softness of an infant. Jiang Huai always suspected that his strange fetish stemmed from Chu Xianning’s dislike for wearing shoes and socks in the courtyard.
It’s all Chu Xianning’s fault!
Jiang Huai massaged them with great care. After a long while, he pressed his Master’s slender ankles into the water to wash away all the flower dew. Chu Xianning released her arms from her chest and suddenly stood up. Her slender toes stepped on the water droplets. She picked up a wooden ladle, scooped up a ladle of water, and gently splashed it on him. Her delicate jade hands also touched his chest at this moment, wiping away all the flower dew.
What do you mean, Chu Xianning? What do you mean? Are you torturing me only to reward me later? Do you think I can’t withstand such a test? Do you think I’ll yield like this? Heh, don’t even think about it!
A “ding” sounded in Jiang Huai’s ear.
【Tonight, Master is completely drunk and no longer as cold and aloof as usual. She is already very intoxicated and no longer sober. The long-suppressed grievances are now quietly fermenting in her heart.】
【Normally, you and Chu Xianning are back and forth. Every time you think you’ve broken through Chu Xianning’s defenses, after only a few days, Chu Xianning will wrap herself up tightly again. Tonight is a great opportunity for your relationship with Master to take a big step forward.】
【Chu Xianning has been trying to deceive herself, always telling herself that she is only your Master and that she never had any romantic feelings for you. Therefore, tonight, you must do everything you can to coax Master into kissing you first.】
【Mission Reward: Advanced Experience Scroll * 5.】
Seeing the mission reward, Jiang Huai roughly knew that the difficulty of completing this mission would definitely be much higher than expected. His system often defied logic. Just like this mission of coaxing Master to kiss him rewarded him with five experience scrolls, and the initial mission of finding a way to make Master sacrifice herself to heal his injuries only gave him ten experience scrolls.
But Jiang Huai later thought that since he had a system, illogicality itself was a kind of logic.
But he couldn’t do it.
He wasn’t a love guru or a love expert, just a timid coward who occasionally had lecherous thoughts.
Chu Xianning’s delicate jade hands were slightly cold. She gently wiped away all the foam from his chest that her jade feet had rubbed earlier. Then, she retracted her body and looked at him indifferently, “Wash the rest yourself.”
Jiang Huai obediently washed himself. After bathing, he hesitated and looked at Chu Xianning, “Then… I’ll dry myself and change?”
Chu Xianning closed her eyes.
Jiang Huai stepped out of the bathhouse, took off his wet clothes, and dried himself with a bath towel, wiping away all the water droplets. He changed into a brand new white robe. His eyes looked at the closed-eyed Chu Xianning. Her face was so sacred under the moonlight.
“I’m done,” he said softly.
Chu Xianning opened her eyes and looked at him, “You, close your eyes.”
So Jiang Huai obediently closed his eyes. Soon, he heard Chu Xianning walking out of the water. Chu Xianning also took off her intimate apparel, wiped her body, and changed into a new dress. Jiang Huai couldn’t help but make a snide remark, “What if I open my eyes and peek?”
“I’ll dig your eyes out.”
Chu Xianning’s voice was extremely close, as if she were standing right in front of him. But thinking of Chu Xianning, completely naked, standing in front of him, Jiang Huai couldn’t help but fantasize about Chu Xianning’s porcelain-white, jade-like body. His eyelashes trembled, and he couldn’t resist the urge to peek, until Chu Xianning threw her removed intimate apparel directly onto his head.
“No looking around.”
Jiang Huai seemed to smell a faint floral fragrance. Chu Xianning’s intimate apparel was like this; anything she wore would have a fragrant scent. Jiang Huai suddenly recalled old scrolls he had flipped through a few days ago. He found the most detailed records about the Flower Spirit Physique there, as Chu Xianning wasn’t the only one with it; there had been several in the past thousand years.
The Flower Spirit Physique was also known as the Wood Spirit Physique, in addition to exuding a fragrant floral scent all over, it also possessed the ability to promote the growth of flowers and plants. Chu Xianning’s Flower Spirit Physique allowed all the spirit flowers in the courtyard to bloom year-round. Even the locust tree that Jiang Huai had broken a few days ago had been healed by Chu Xianning.
Besides that, Jiang Huai also found a particularly wicked part.
The Flower Spirit Physique possessed desires beyond ordinary people, regardless of gender. Even if they suppressed their desires on weekdays, once they surged, it was difficult to restrain them, much more so than for ordinary people. The two Flower Spirit Physiques recorded in the ancient texts were one a notorious slut, and the other a bulldozer… But his immortal Master, Chu Xianning, was pure and chaste, and her cultivation technique itself had a powerful mind-clearing effect, which barely suppressed it.
Furthermore, the Flower Spirit Physique had a physique similar to that of the Monster Clan. Even without experience, they could secrete sweet milk. When Jiang Huai read this part, his mind was filled with thoughts of why he wasn’t brought back to the mountain by Chu Xianning at the age of two. But from another perspective, if he had drunk it since he was young, his Master would have had even less chance of having any intimate relationship with him. So he could only think about it.
Moreover, if he were two years old, his Master might have casually handed him over to someone else to raise, and he wouldn’t have had the chance to stay by his Master’s side since childhood.
The ancient scrolls also recorded more private matters: when a woman with the Flower Spirit Physique was emotionally stirred, she could secrete a special nectar that had the effect of nourishing the soul and tempering the physique, its effect comparable to a thousand-year spirit medicine. It could be secreted once every three days. When Jiang Huai saw this, his head started to spin. The system in his ear also went ding ding ding, sending him a strange mission.
【Harvest the sweet nectar of your immortal Master three or more times. Note: Must be personally harvested.】
【Mission Reward: Flower Spirit Physique * 1.】
Jiang Huai studied it carefully at the time. If he also possessed the Flower Spirit Physique, he wouldn’t need to Dual Cultivate with Chu Xianning, but could use the power of the Flower Spirit Physique to suppress the medicinal properties and the coldness of the Ice Soul Profound Body to restore his Qi Sea.
But he didn’t dare to think about it. If he dared to mention this to Chu Xianning, she would probably kill him outright. At best, she would tie him to a tree and beat him severely. The “note” in the system mission made Jiang Huai’s teeth itch. If he didn’t have to harvest it personally, perhaps his Master would soften her heart because of it, which would be better than Dual Cultivating with him to improve his cultivation.
Damn system!
Jiang Huai’s mind was filled with these strange thoughts until Chu Xianning spoke indifferently, “I’m done.”
Jiang Huai opened his eyes. Chu Xianning had already put on a black sling dress. The hem of the dress had soft and graceful black lace, and the skirt fell to her snow-white thighs. Jiang Huai’s gaze was a bit dazed, “Where did this dress come from?”
“I bought it myself at Ziyun Pavilion,” Chu Xianning replied indifferently.
Nightgowns could naturally only be worn in the courtyard. The last time Chu Xianning went to Ziyun Pavilion, she happened to see it. For some reason, her heart moved, and she bought it back. She couldn’t explain why she liked it, even though she had always hated such revealing clothes in the past.
“It looks beautiful,” Jiang Huai said softly, his gaze unconsciously falling on the neckline of Chu Xianning’s chest. The neckline also had black lace, and her white and tender chest was slightly exposed. However, as soon as he looked, Chu Xianning raised her hand as if to poke his eyes. Jiang Huai flinched and closed his eyes tightly. When he opened them again, Chu Xianning was already walking out of the bathhouse.
“Is Master ready to sleep?”
“Yes.”
“Aren’t we going to chat anymore?”
“No.”
Jiang Huai followed Chu Xianning’s steps. He knew clearly in his heart that the mission of coaxing Chu Xianning to kiss him had failed. He didn’t know what to say to coax Chu Xianning into kissing him.
That night, he sent Chu Xianning back to her room. He didn’t know what to say to coax Chu Xianning into willingly doing so, which was why he got punched by Chu Xianning. Perhaps he occasionally understood a little flattery, but those words were like children’s jokes in front of Chu Xianning.
“Then I’ll tell Master a story?” Jiang Huai had already walked up to Chu Xianning. Chu Xianning didn’t say anything, but walked into the room, then climbed onto the bed and covered herself with the quilt.
She closed her eyes and said indifferently, “You tell it. After I fall asleep… you should sleep early too.”
So Jiang Huai began to tell Chu Xianning his adapted fairy tale, which he called Snow White Saintess and Her Seven Little Lickers. The story was cliché and nonsensical. Chu Xianning had no reaction at first. When Jiang Huai was halfway through his story, Chu Xianning’s breathing was already very steady.
He tentatively called out “Master” in a low voice a couple of times, but Chu Xianning didn’t react at all.
It seemed his Master had really fallen asleep.
Jiang Huai looked at Chu Xianning’s quiet sleeping face and couldn’t help but chuckle. Chu Xianning when drunk was especially cute. Her usual coldness was completely hidden. Sometimes she was like a little girl who didn’t behave like a Dao Companion, and sometimes she was like a wicked woman who liked to tease and provoke little dogs.
But Chu Xianning asleep at this moment had returned to her former appearance, with her eyebrows and eyes as cold as ever.
Jiang Huai quietly watched her for a long, long time without saying anything more. He no longer had any secrets to tell. Sometimes he realized that words spoken under the influence of alcohol couldn’t be taken seriously. Looking at his Master’s cold face at this moment, Jiang Huai suddenly wanted to kiss her forehead.
Just a light kiss on the forehead.
Jiang Huai thought so and slowly leaned closer. It was just a kiss on the forehead… it wasn’t excessive, nor was it particularly despicable. Jiang Huai, feeling guilty, moved slowly, holding his breath for fear of disturbing Chu Xianning. But just as he was about to get close, Chu Xianning suddenly opened her eyes.
Jiang Huai was so frightened that he wanted to escape immediately, but Chu Xianning seemed to have expected it. She reached out and grabbed his collar. Through her eyes, Jiang Huai could tell that it was still the drunk Chu Xianning!
Damn it! He had been tricked! She wasn’t asleep at all!
“What… do you want to do?” Chu Xianning’s eyes were contemptuous, with a hint of anger.
“I want… to kiss Master’s forehead.”
“Quibbling.”
“Really, really! I didn’t… didn’t want to kiss your lips…” Jiang Huai became more and more guilty as he spoke. He couldn’t say for sure whether if he had kissed her forehead just now, and Chu Xianning hadn’t woken up, he wouldn’t have wanted to kiss Chu Xianning’s lips…
“Are you that fixated on touching lips?” Chu Xianning’s slender jade hand gripped his collar, her eyes showing a hint of confusion. “Even if you kissed, what would it mean? Do you think you haven’t kissed Wen Wanwan and Luo Qingyu enough already?”
“It’s mainly because of the Flower Spirit Physique; Master’s lips are really sweet…” Jiang Huai became more and more guilty as he spoke. Hearing Chu Xianning suddenly mention Wen Wanwan and Luo Qingyu’s names, for some reason, he had a very bad premonition in his heart.
“It’s sweet, is it?!”
Chu Xianning’s fingertips suddenly exerted force, grabbing Jiang Huai’s body and easily pulling him onto the bed. Before Jiang Huai could speak, Chu Xianning pressed him onto the bed. Then, his immortal Master flipped over. She reached out, pinched his chin, and in Jiang Huai’s astonished and flustered eyes, the tipsy Chu Xianning suddenly chuckled, her eyes showing a hint of enchanting charm. “Then shall I feed you until you’re full?”
“Anyway, if I say it’s okay, Master will punch me directly the next second. Heh heh, it’s already twice tonight. Does Master think I’ll fall for the same trick a third time?”
Before Jiang Huai could finish speaking.
Chu Xianning, who was lying on top of him at this moment, suddenly lowered her head. Her ink-black hair, which had fallen on his shoulders, also cascaded down, covering his face. And her lips landed on his lips.
Cold, soft, fragrant, and hot.
It was truly sweet.
Jiang Huai suspected he was drunk and dreaming. He reached out and pinched his own thigh fiercely. It hurt dearly. And Chu Xianning was truly feeding him flower dew. He was flustered and uneasy, yet his hand subconsciously reached out to embrace Chu Xianning’s slender waist, only to be slapped away by her the next second.
One breath, two breaths, more than ten breaths passed.
Chu Xianning lifted her face and sat beside him, looking down at his eyebrows indifferently, and said coldly, “Are you full?”
“Not enough,” Little Huai, Jiang, was unusually tough for once.
He thought he had gone mad. He was so brave, unlike himself at all.
Chu Xianning’s expression was blank. She reached out and punched his lower abdomen, “Whether you’re full or not, I’ve fed you. Now you have to agree to my condition.”
“What condition?”
“You say it first, you’ll definitely agree.”
“Definitely!”
“Within the next three months, no more tricking me into drinking alcohol.” Chu Xianning turned her head, her eyes clear yet tinged with shyness and annoyance.
Jiang Huai was utterly confused, “But when I proposed drinking with Master, Master only needed to refuse, right?”
Chu Xianning suddenly reached out and grabbed his neck, “You just need to remember what I say, not argue. Understand?”
“Under… understood.”
Chu Xianning then released her hand, turned her face, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She realized she was becoming less and less skilled at refusing, and more and more worried and insecure. But if her disobedient disciple didn’t bring it up… she probably wouldn’t have to worry about whether to refuse.
” Forget everything that happened tonight. If you mention a single word of it to Luo Yueguan when you go to Qingxuan Sect tomorrow, I will expel you from the sect,” Chu Xianning said coldly again.
“…Okay,” Jiang Huai replied softly.
Chu Xianning finally breathed a complete sigh of relief. She extended her white and tender little feet and lightly kicked Jiang Huai’s waist, “Go to sleep.”
“Wait a moment…” Jiang Huai sat up and suddenly placed his hand on Chu Xianning’s slender shoulder.
“What?” Chu Xianning was startled.
“Master’s lips still have a little flower dew; it can’t be wasted.”
With that, Jiang Huai suddenly leaned in. Chu Xianning’s slender and soft body was pushed onto the bed by him. Her delicate pink lips were then gently kissed by him.
… After only three breaths.
Jiang Huai was kicked out of the room by a knee strike. This time, the locust trees in the courtyard almost broke.
