Chapter 49: Junior Sister, Do You Miss Senior Brother?
Listening to the two people chat, Xiao Tian, floating in mid-air, couldn’t help but purse its lips. It was finding Ye Anping more and more likable now. Although Ye Anping’s aptitude was a bit lacking, his character, intellect, knowledge base, and connections displayed during this period were far superior to those of ordinary young masters from other sects. Most importantly, Ye Anping was only fifteen years old, the same age as Feng Yu Die. Comparing people is like comparing someone to the dead. It used to hear often that many mothers liked to compare their children to other people’s children. Xiao Tian now understood why. Except for aptitude and cultivation, its Yu Die couldn’t compare to Ye Anping in any other aspect! Not only did he have no bad habits as a young master, but he also proactively stepped out of his sect’s comfort zone, opened a shop to make a living, and was wholeheartedly trying to get his junior sister into Xuan Xing Sect for cultivation. Most significantly, even someone like its Yu Die, who disliked men so much, seemed willing to befriend him now. Moreover, this Ye Anping seemed to be able to see it, though there was no evidence yet. But if Ye Anping could truly see it, wouldn’t that further prove that he and Feng Yu Die were destined to be a pair of young qilin and tomb tigers? While the three were roasting chicken, Xiao Tian had a sudden idea and slipped to Ye Anping’s ear, saying: “Young Master Ye, I’m telling you, Yu Die told me last night that she wants to be your cultivation partner, do you know?”
“?”
“?? ”
The moment it said that, question marks appeared above Ye Anping’s and Feng Yu Die’s heads. Feng Yu Die had one more question mark above her head. She looked at Xiao Tian with a confused expression, her eyes conveying: When did I say I wanted to be his cultivation partner? Xiao Tian, are you sick?! However, Ye Anping reacted. This emergency food was definitely testing whether he could really see it. “Young Master Ye, although Yu Die is usually unreliable and often does inexplicable things, always self-centered and completely indifferent to others’ feelings, she is still a good girl. Look at her, if she tidies up, she’ll be very obedient and beautiful, and her silver hair is so ethereal. Although Yu Die likes women, it’s only because she’s young, and we can work together to correct her bad habits, right? I’ll tell you a secret, when Yu Die was three years old, she once mistook cow dung for mud and was playing with it, and ended up covered in cow dung. Her Master took her to the Yun Ling Mountain waterfall and washed her for three days and three nights before the smell was completely gone. And even now, she still sucks her fingers when she sleeps every night, it’s hilarious.” After Xiao Tian finished whispering in Ye Anping’s left ear, it flew to her right ear and whispered, as if it wanted to reveal all of Feng Yu Die’s past scandals. Although Ye Anping maintained a calm expression, Feng Yu Die’s face instantly turned unpleasant as she listened. She roared inwardly: What is this stupid thing doing?! Although she never cared about what others thought of her, … they were eating right now! Who talks about these things while eating?! Feng Yu Die felt that the roasted chicken in her hand was no longer appetizing, and she stared intently at Xiao Tian, glaring at it with her eyes. However, because Xiao Tian was floating right next to Ye Anping’s ear, from Bai Yuexin’s perspective, Feng Yu Die was staring intently at Ye Anping. ? Bai Yuexin’s head also popped up a question mark. These two clearly hadn’t spoken much, so why did Feng Yu Die look like she was suddenly interested in Ye Anping? Although Ye Anping’s face was quite attractive to girls, and his personality was cool, this was… too much. Feng Yu Die couldn’t take it anymore and put down the chicken leg in her hand. “I’m full!” “Mm,” Ye Anping nodded. “Didn’t you want to experience physiotherapy? Go wash your hands in the backyard, and I’ll be there…” “I’ll come again tomorrow! I’m going back first, thanks for the roasted chicken!” With that said, Feng Yu Die stood up and ran directly out of the physiotherapy center, summoned her flying sword, and flew back to Xuan Xing Sect. After saying a few more words, Xiao Tian was also taken away by her. “Young Master Ye, I’ll come again tomorrow to continue talking about Yu Die~~” “…” After she left, Bai Yuexin spoke up and asked, “Anping, what were you talking about just now when I wasn’t here?” “Nothing much, just chatted about some everyday things.” … Four days later— The physical tests of Xuan Xing Sect finally ended. Although Feng Yu Die was sent back to recuperate from her injuries, Pei Lianxue and Xiao Yunluo, who continued the physical tests, completed the entire course and successfully reached the Main Peak. After listening to the Elder’s explanation of the subsequent Sect Selection arrangements on the Main Peak, Pei Lianxue helped Xiao Yunluo back to their residence on Tianyun Peak. Pei Lianxue had often been thrown into forests by her Senior Brother for survival training, so she still seemed quite energetic. However, Xiao Yunluo, who was with her, was having a hard time. She could barely feel her legs anymore. The last part of the journey up to the Main Peak was carried by Pei Lianxue. As there was a pavilion ahead, Xiao Yunluo quickly called out, “Junior Sister Pei, let’s go sit and rest in the pavilion for a while. I really can’t move anymore.” “But we’re almost at our residence.” “I really can’t move, let’s just sit for a bit…” “…” Pei Lianxue was a little helpless, so she helped her into the pavilion ahead and sat down. As she placed Xiao Yunluo on the chair, she almost collapsed there, looking half-dead. After a while, she recovered and looked at Pei Lianxue’s calm demeanor, recalling the experiences during the sect selection. After Feng Yu Die was taken away, she followed Pei Lianxue, overcoming all obstacles. They had encountered the Extreme Flame Spiritual Energy of Ku Sha River and then encountered demonic beasts many times. Each time, Pei Lianxue resolved them alone, and she couldn’t help at all. It could even be said that if she hadn’t been burdened by her, Pei Lianxue would have completed the physical tests two days earlier. Several times, it was because she sprained her ankle or ran out of physical strength that they were forced to stop and rest. Xiao Yunluo looked at Pei Lianxue, hesitated for a moment, and asked, “Junior Sister Pei, is there anything you like?” “Mm?” Pei Lianxue was slightly taken aback. “Why are you suddenly asking this?” “Just… I want to give you a gift. You’ve been taking care of me these past few days. If it weren’t for me, you would have definitely finished the physical tests a day or two earlier.” Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and smiled, asking, “Do you like jewelry? I have a lot.” “No need.” “Then I’ll treat you to a meal. There are several good restaurants in the Xuan Xing Sect marketplace.” Pei Lianxue now wanted to see her Senior Brother. When that group of people attacked them, her Senior Brother had arrived, but why didn’t he come out to see her? It had been almost two months since she left Hundred Lotus Sect. She hadn’t seen her Senior Brother in two months, hadn’t hugged him in two months, and hadn’t held his hand in two months. She was suffering from Senior Brother withdrawal. She missed her Senior Brother. “…” Seeing Pei Lianxue frown, Xiao Yunluo tilted her head in confusion and asked softly, “You don’t want to eat either? Then pills?” “No… let’s just eat. Eating is cheaper.” “It’s not like you’re paying. I’m treating. I’ll call that Second idiot too.” Pei Lianxue nodded perfunctorily and then rested her chin on her hand, looking out through the lattice window of the pavilion. The mountains spread out before her. Xuan Xing Sect’s scenery was much better than Hundred Lotus Sect’s, but without her Senior Brother by her side, she had no mood to admire the scroll-like mountain landscape. At this moment, two Senior Sisters from Tianyun Peak passed by. Seeing Xiao Yunluo in the pavilion, they greeted her. “Young Miss, good afternoon.” “Mm, good afternoon.” After the two bowed, they continued walking upwards, but their conversation reached Pei Lianxue’s ears. — “Did you see Senior Sister Bai’s little cultivation partner?” — “Huh? Didn’t Senior Sister Bai always say they weren’t cultivation partners?” — “Oh, Senior Sister Bai is just shy. She practically runs to the marketplace after class these days. They spend all day together, what else could they be if not cultivation partners? I’m telling you, her little cultivation partner is so cute, a cool young man like him, when he grows up, he’ll definitely be a handsome man with a jade-like complexion. I’m so envious.” — “Is he really that handsome?” — “My judgment, Sister Xu, isn’t low. If I say someone is good-looking, then that person is truly good-looking. I’ll take you to see him after class tonight, and let him give you a foot massage. He’s really good at it!” — “M-massage your feet?! This…” — “Oh, you don’t need to be so concerned. Everyone is just like you; they feel a bit hesitant before trying it, but once they try it, they immediately fall in love with it…”
