People can fall into degeneracy of their own accord.
Absurdity is always a part of reality. Jiang Huai understood absurdity, but also believed in logic, and quickly figured out why Fang Moye had suddenly started acting crazy.
It was precisely because of the repeated struggles, torment, and pain that she had found such complete liberation. When she seemed to cast all shame aside and act shamelessly, no torment or pain could bind her anymore. Jiang Huai was always like this, but at this moment, Fang Moye was clearly more terrifying than Jiang Huai, because she had started to act unreasonably, seeking an unprecedented joy in this self-destructive behavior.
Jiang Huai had always been a two-faced person. He treated those who were gentle and polite to him with gentleness and politeness, and those who were tough and rude to him, he treated even more excessively. He tried to struggle several times but couldn’t move, and wanted to shout but couldn’t make a sound. It was only after the mission was completed that he was finally able to speak, and the first words he said were:
“Senior Sister, save me!”
This shout echoed through the entire courtyard in an instant. Ning Yuzhu, who was sitting in the courtyard at that moment, slowly walked to Fang Moye’s door, reached out and opened it, and saw the absurd and decadent scene.
Ning Yuzhu shook her head as if helpless, and looked at Jiang Huai with disdain, “I told you not to bully Senior Sister so much.”
“Is there a possibility that Ancestral Master is bullying me?”
Ning Yuzhu came to Jiang Huai’s side and touched his chest, breaking the restriction. In an instant, she was both helpless and amused. She looked back at Fang Moye and said softly, “Senior Sister, you don’t have to be like this. Even if Senior Sister is not in the sect now, you and I are still of one mind. Senior Sister’s affairs are my affairs.”
Fang Moye, who had been caught by Ning Yuzhu at this moment and had just been forced to swallow something strange, had her mind on the verge of losing its ability to think. She stuttered for a long time and couldn’t speak. It wasn’t until Ning Yuzhu took out a handkerchief, gently wiped her lips, and then looked at Jiang Huai, saying softly, “You go bathe first, I’ll stay here and chat with Senior Sister.”
Jiang Huai immediately got up and ran away. Ning Yuzhu sat down, looking at Fang Moye, who was still a little dazed, with a hint of helplessness and a hint of pity. She slowly leaned closer, gently embraced Fang Moye’s slender body, and said softly, “Senior Sister, quiet your mind.”
***
Jiang Huai didn’t know what they talked about.
He only knew that Ning Yuzhu hadn’t returned for a long time, and he tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep. Fang Moye’s room next door was still lit, so much so that Jiang Huai finally couldn’t stand it, got up, overcame his fear of the frantic Fang Moye, and gently knocked on the door.
But the door quickly opened on its own. At this moment, Ning Yuzhu and Fang Moye were sitting side-by-side on the bedside, their eyes falling on him together.
Jiang Huai was still a little afraid, and instinctively shrank back, saying softly, “Why hasn’t Senior Sister come back to sleep yet?”
“I was comforting Senior Sister and talked a lot with her,” Ning Yuzhu said softly. “Come and sit.”
Jiang Huai hesitated for a moment, but obediently went to the table and sat down. He also made some Jasmine tea for the two of them. It seemed that escape wasn’t the solution, and it was better to clear the air now.
Based on Jiang Huai’s understanding of Ning Yuzhu, she was exceptionally intelligent, and he didn’t know what method she would use to comfort Fang Moye. Jiang Huai pushed the tea cups to the table in front of them. They picked up the tea and took a sip, after which Ning Yuzhu slowly said, “Senior Sister, what do you think of my proposal?”
“He won’t agree,” Fang Moye said instead, turning her face away, her voice still revealing a hint of shyness and grievance.
Ning Yuzhu looked at Jiang Huai in front of her, her voice much softer. Her eyes instantly became gentle and doting. What the hell, when did she secretly learn Jiang Huai’s change of expression?
“Senior Sister’s Dao heart is already a little unstable now, so I talked a lot with Senior Sister.”
“This… what did you talk about?” Jiang Huai picked up his teacup and took a sip, asking cautiously.
“Senior Sister’s heart is filled with mixed emotions, so I sorted them out for her one by one. She resents Master’s decision to arrange her as your Dao Companion back then, but she is also grateful for Master’s kindness to her. She is ashamed that you are her disciple’s disciple, and that the current ambiguous and intimate relationship between you two is outrageous. However, because of the daily contact with your body, her innate seductive bone has been stimulated, and her mind has become muddled. Now, a pile of thoughts are swirling in her mind. The more she thinks, the easier it is for her Dao heart to become unstable. Do you resent her?”
Jiang Huai thought about it, first shook his head, then nodded, and then shook his head again.
Ning Yuzhu chuckled, “It can be like that?”
“It’s not good to be like this,” Jiang Huai replied softly.
“But since there is a one, why should we fear a two? If there is no second, can we pretend that the first never happened?” Ning Yuzhu smiled at Jiang Huai, her voice also softened.
“That’s what they say…”
“You,” Ning Yuzhu leaned slightly closer, her fingertip gently tapping his forehead, “When you were ambiguous with me and took advantage of me, why weren’t you so conflicted and indecisive?”
“Because Senior Sister doesn’t really hate me, but Ancestral Master is conflicted and indecisive. She herself is unwilling, so why…”
“So I want her to let go of these things too. If she can let go first, can you let go?”
“Probably,” Jiang Huai could only follow Ning Yuzhu’s lead.
“What you say must be done. Don’t lie.”
“I won’t lie.”
“Why has Junior Brother suddenly become so obedient?”
Jiang Huai looked at Ning Yuzhu, feeling both amused and helpless. “Senior Sister, you don’t have to treat me like a baby, do you?”
“I’m not good at coaxing people,” Ning Yuzhu said softly. “Since you two have both let go of your prejudice, can you stop being angry with each other?”
“I wasn’t angry in the first place,” Fang Moye muttered softly.
“I’m not angry… I was just a little afraid of what Ancestral Master looked like just now,” Jiang Huai also replied softly.
“Okay, then this matter is closed,” Ning Yuzhu clasped her hands together and looked at the two in front of her. Jiang Huai and Fang Moye no longer avoided her gaze and nodded slightly. Then Ning Yuzhu suddenly lifted her slender leg from under her skirt, and her cute and lovely white and tender little foot swung in the air. She suddenly embraced Fang Moye and said, “Then Senior Sister, will you help me coax him with our feet now?”
Fang Moye’s eyes widened slightly, and Jiang Huai was about to run away, but seeing Ning Yuzhu’s gentle smile, he suddenly felt his legs go weak.
“It was Junior Brother who said he would let go of his prejudice, right?” Ning Yuzhu snorted softly, and suddenly hooked Fang Moye’s calf with her toes, causing her calf to lift as well. Her voice was soft, “Senior Sister’s slender feet are also very beautiful. Even if you don’t agree with your mouth, Junior Brother’s instincts will like them, right?”
“But there’s no mission, so there’s no reason to do this.”
“It is precisely because there is no mission that doing this is considered letting go of prejudice completely,” Ning Yuzhu replied gently. “This way, you two will no longer have to worry about what you did before being driven by missions and the mission to save the world. By completely breaking free from those constraints, you will no longer be troubled.”
Jiang Huai was momentarily speechless and didn’t know where to start complaining. He slowly said, “I realize that Senior Sister, you are the master of escaping life…”
Her twisted logic actually made some sense at first hearing.
“That’s the essence of it,” Ning Yuzhu’s tone was very light, but her reply was righteous. “The more you think about things in the world, the more troubled you become. The less you think, the more relaxed you become. This is also Master’s philosophy. Human desires should be natural, like the desire to eat and drink, rather than deliberately suppressed or indulged in madness. To frankly admit one’s desires and accept them is to have a clear Dao heart.”
“Isn’t Senior Sister forcing me to admit it frankly?”
“Then do you mean you are unwilling to let go of your prejudice?”
“No, Senior Sister is changing the concept. Prejudice is prejudice, and slacking off is slacking off. This is escape, this is slacking off. It’s not thinking seriously about how to solve the problem, it’s just temporarily putting the problem aside, pretending not to see it, and deceiving oneself.”
“Then let’s try it first,” Ning Yuzhu said gently. The little foot under her skirt had already landed on him, and she said softly, “You don’t have to think about anything now, just feel it obediently, how about it?”
“Senior Sister, why don’t you look at the awkward expression on her face…” Jiang Huai pointed at Fang Moye’s face. Ning Yuzhu leaned close to Fang Moye’s cheek and looked at it seriously, then looked back at Jiang Huai. “Senior Sister is just shy.”
Fortunately, she stopped interrogating Jiang Huai and started interrogating Fang Moye. “I’m not shy at all, so Senior Sister isn’t allowed to be either. He has obediently listened. Senior Sister, you should also let go of your prejudice and try to treat him as our Junior Brother?”
“Or rather, doesn’t Senior Sister want to see the awkward expression he shows when Senior Sister teases him?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Moye hesitated slightly, then slowly lifted her slender leg from under her skirt. Her hand was still lightly gripping the bedsheet, and she seemed afraid to look into Jiang Huai’s eyes. After a while, she finally made up her mind. She looked back at Jiang Huai in front of her, but still maintained a proud expression out of instinct, and said slowly, “It was wrong of me to force you before… This is my apology and compensation to you… You… don’t think too much, look into my eyes… Don’t make me bear this… shame alone…”
The room was filled with the fragrance of warm jade. The two fairies in front of them were gentle and shy. Their porcelain-white skin and jade-like bones were bright under the soft lamplight. Seeing Fang Moye make a move, Ning Yuzhu extinguished the firefly stone lamp in the room and lit only a few small candles. The candlelight softened the night, and it fell on her slender, fair, jade feet, as if illuminating her skin to be slightly radiant.
Suddenly, Ning Yuzhu thought of something and leaned closer to Fang Moye, saying softly, “Senior Sister, do you remember when we secretly looked at those erotic picture books together under the covers?”
Fang Moye suddenly remembered that time. By then, she had become the acting Divine Emperor. Her cultivation was unfathomably deep, and she no longer had to worry. Ning Yuzhu by her side would cook delicious meals every day, and followed her to learn sword fighting. Time was leisurely and fragmented, yet it seemed to stretch on.
After Ning Yuzhu had pacified Fang Moye, she looked at Jiang Huai again. At this moment, Jiang Huai felt like a toy being played with in the palm of Ning Yuzhu’s hand. He hadn’t yet found a reason to refute her logic of degeneracy, but Ning Yuzhu had already separated one of her white and tender feet and placed its white tip under his chin. She deliberately revealed a hint of disdain in her eyes, “This is your reward from your two Senior Sisters… If you think of anything else now…”
Her toes slowly traced Jiang Huai’s neck, and her voice seemed to become more charming. “Then tonight, your Senior Sisters will reward you with the whole night.”
