Chapter 92: Junior Sister, I Got the Erotic Book
When entering the Spirit Gathering Grotto, Pei Lianxue remembered it was early December.
That day, a light snow fell on Xuan Xing Sect.
Looking from the platform in front of the Spirit Gathering Grotto, half was white and half was grey-green.
Now, emerging from the Spirit Gathering Grotto and looking around the surroundings from the platform once more, her eyes were filled with vibrant life, and her ears were filled with the chirping of spring birds.
“It’s already spring… Has it really been almost five months since I started Foundation Establishment?”
The wind lightly brushed Pei Lianxue’s dark brown long hair. Her orange eyes gazed at Tianyun Peak, which stood to the southeast of Xuan Xing Sect.
She squinted and stretched like a kitten, her eyes full of anticipation.
She was looking forward to seeing her Senior Brother, and when he saw her, he would immediately come forward to give her a hug. Moreover, she had already reached her coming-of-age ceremony…
— “Junior Sister, marry me.”
Although Pei Lianxue herself felt it was unlikely, what if?
What if!!
Pei Lianxue patted her cheeks, dispelling the fantasies in her mind. After taking a deep breath, she gathered her long hair from behind her head into her hand and rubbed it. Seeing that her hair was already a little tangled, she summoned her flying sword from her storage bag and rushed back towards Tianyun Peak, preparing to take a bath to make herself fragrant and soft again, and then go find her Senior Brother.
The Three-Bay House on Tianyun Peak was very quiet. Pei Lianxue landed her flying sword in the courtyard and saw that a clothesline by the courtyard was hung with bedsheets and clothes, which puzzled her for a moment.
The bedsheets and clothes seemed to be hers, and they looked like they were washed yesterday, still not completely dry.
Senior Brother didn’t have a Disciple Waist Token, so he couldn’t enter Xuan Xing Sect. It definitely wasn’t Senior Brother who washed them for her.
If it wasn’t Senior Brother, then who was it?
Could it be that Second Idiot? Was he that diligent?
At this moment, from her secondary bedroom, two “swish-swish” sounds of sweeping the floor suddenly came out.
Pei Lianxue hurried over. Before entering the room, she called out:
“Second…”
Inside the room, Ye Anping was sweeping the floor with a broom. Upon hearing her mention “Second,” he quickly straightened up and turned to look at her.
“Hm?”
“Senior Brother?!”
Second… Senior Brother…
?
Ye Anping blinked blankly. He didn’t say anything. Seeing his junior sister teary-eyed, he simply put down the broom in his hand and opened his arms:
“Come.”
Pounding the floor with hurried steps, Pei Lianxue pursed her lips and threw herself into Ye Anping’s arms with her arms outstretched.
Although Ye Anping had mentally prepared himself, the force of her pounce, like a fierce tiger, still made his ribs ache.
Seeing the bed behind him, he simply went with the force of his junior sister’s pounce and fell backward, allowing her to push him onto the bed.
Ye Anping didn’t say anything, just gently stroked her hair downwards.
After letting her hug him for a while, he spoke:
“Haven’t you had enough hugging?”
Pei Lianxue shook her head: “A little longer~~ I need to make up for all five months…”
“Five months? Then you’d have to hug me for a week or two without letting go?”
“Mm…”
Ye Anping smiled wryly, shook his head, and simply relaxed, spreading himself out like a starfish, letting her nuzzle in his arms.
“By the way, what Senior Brother told you before you entered the Spirit Gathering Grotto, you haven’t forgotten, right?”
“I haven’t forgotten. After Foundation Establishment, I was to use my spiritual energy to expel the remaining cold energy from that piece of Han Tian Sand. Later, if Elder asked, I was to say it was an accident…”
“Mm.”
Ye Anping nodded, relieved.
The method he taught Pei Lianxue was enough to conceal her Spiritual Root from most elders in Xuan Xing Sect. Unless Si Xuanji or True Person Yun Xian among the five Grand Elders saw Pei Lianxue emerge from the grotto, it was unlikely anyone else would suspect her of having a “Pure Water Extreme Spiritual Root.”
After a while, Ye Anping held Pei Lianxue’s shoulders and slowly pushed her up from himself.
“Senior Brother, I haven’t had enough hugging yet…”
“How old are you, still acting spoiled.”
Ye Anping poked her nose, helped her smooth her messy bangs, then made a Sword Finger gesture and took out an exquisite wooden box from his storage bag.
“Here, you’ve reached your coming-of-age ceremony at fifteen, this is Senior Brother’s gift for you.”
!!
The tuft of hair on Pei Lianxue’s head stood up slightly. She quickly reached out to take it. Judging by the size of the box, it should contain a book or a calligraphy scroll.
And if it were a calligraphy scroll…
Could it be…
A Betrothal Gift Letter?! A letter used for engagement!!!
Pei Lianxue pursed her lips, her cheeks instantly flushing a layer of red. After hesitating for a moment, she hurriedly untied the rope on the wooden box and, filled with anticipation, removed the lid and looked inside.
Upon seeing a book with the words “Immortal Palace Erotic Pictures” printed on it, her mind seemed to merge with the entire cosmos, and she froze instantly.
“Immortal Palace Erotic Pictures?” Pei Lianxue looked at Ye Anping with confusion, “What… book is this?”
“Just some miscellaneous reading.”
“…”
Pei Lianxue forced a smile and nodded, gently flipping open the first page. She seemed not to understand, so she flipped a few more pages. Upon seeing the two tiny figures on it, she immediately pouted.
“Senior Brother…”
“Hm?”
“I’ve already reached my coming-of-age ceremony, and you’re still giving me comic books,” Pei Lianxue frowned and gave him a look of disdain, “Do you still see me as a little girl? I’m already of marriageable age!!”
“Ah… comic books? That’s not wrong… but…”
Ye Anping was slightly embarrassed and quickly explained:
“Junior Sister, this isn’t an ordinary comic book. It can move. If you input some spiritual energy into it, the little figures on it can move.”
Pei Lianxue was completely uninterested. She felt as if her five months of anticipation in the Spirit Gathering Grotto had turned to dust in that instant. Pouting, she replied:
“Oh, thank you, Senior Brother.”
Ye Anping didn’t know how to explain the content to her. If he explained it too clearly, it would be too vulgar, making him seem like a lecherous Senior Brother.
After thinking for a moment, he quickly said: “…If you don’t understand, you can ask Senior Sister Xiao. I got this book from Senior Sister Xiao, and I thought it would be quite meaningful for you…”
“Senior Sister Xiao?”
Hearing this, Pei Lianxue paused slightly. She only then noticed that her Senior Brother was wearing the clothes of a Xuan Xing Sect accompanying disciple, very similar to her current outfit, just for male disciples. Her eyes widened.
“Senior Brother, are you Yunluo’s accompanying disciple?”
“Mm. The day you and Feng Yu Die entered the Spirit Gathering Grotto, Senior Sister Xiao came to find me and said I had become her accompanying disciple. Then I went back to Hundred Lotus Sect with her and established my Foundation there…”
“You went back to Hundred Lotus Sect together?”
“Mm.”
“This… I see…”
Pei Lianxue nodded, shifted her gaze, then stored the book in her storage bag and stood up.
“Senior Brother, Elder Qin said earlier that he wanted me to go to Central Peak.”
Ye Anping raised an eyebrow: “Go after taking a bath and changing your clothes.”
“No need, I’ll wash up when I get back. It’ll be quick. Wait for me.”
Pei Lianxue smiled slightly, then walked out of the room, summoned her flying sword again, and flew towards Central Peak.
Ye Anping sighed like an old father and then also stood up, continuing to help his junior sister clean the room.

Xiao Yunluo was in the kitchen at that moment, preparing a loving breakfast for herself and Ye Anping.
Although she had been too embarrassed to speak to Ye Anping for several days because of an erotic book, things had gradually developed in the direction she had envisioned.
If not for being deeply in love, they could at least be described as living in peace and harmony, filled with laughter.
In the morning, they would attend morning classes together. Ye Anping, as her accompanying disciple, would sit beside her while listening to the lecture, helping her grind ink and prepare brushes.
At noon, they would sit together at the stone table in the Three-Bay House, basking in the sun, cultivating Qi, and discussing the day’s lessons taught by Mr. Qi.
In the evening, they would meditate and cultivate Qi together in the small Spirit Gathering Array in the Three-Bay House, then each take a bath, bid each other goodnight, and return to their rooms to sleep.
Excluding hand-holding, hugging, kissing, and dual cultivation, she felt that she and Ye Anping could be considered an extremely compatible Cultivation Partner.
“I wonder when Lianxue will come out… Should I try hugging him today?”
Thinking so, Xiao Yunluo placed the rice balls she had shaped into a lunchbox and prepared to call Ye Anping for class.
As soon as she pushed open the door and stepped out of the room, she saw the woman standing in the courtyard. Xiao Yunluo immediately held her breath.
The woman was now holding a spirit sword, her thick long hair covering her face, exuding a dense killing intent all over her body.
If it were still night, Xiao Yunluo guessed she would have been so scared that she would have screamed.
She stared at the woman for a long time before recognizing her as Pei Lianxue.
“Ah… Lianxue? You’re out?”
“Mm.” Pei Lianxue nodded, tidied her messy hair behind her back, and walked forward, “Yunluo, my Senior Brother said he became your accompanying disciple and that you live together…”
“…”
Although her tone was extremely gentle and calm,
Xiao Yunluo glanced at the spirit sword in Pei Lianxue’s hand and involuntarily swallowed, saying:
“Yes, that’s right.” She quickly brought out the excuse she had prepared days ago, “Lianxue, I was planning to give you a surprise.”
Pei Lianxue’s head tilted ninety degrees to the right with a “crunch crunch crunch” sound.
“Surprise?”
“(Gulp)” Xiao Yunluo swallowed again, answering as calmly as possible, “Look, don’t you like Young Master Ye? Young Master Ye usually can’t enter Xuan Xing Sect, so I thought if he became my accompanying disciple, you could see each other often…”
Hearing this, Pei Lianxue was slightly stunned. Her previously resentful gaze brightened instantly.
She quickly switched her spirit sword from a forward grip to a reverse grip and held it behind her back.
“So that’s how it is…” Pei Lianxue pursed her lips, “Thank you, Yunluo.”
So easy to fool… Xiao Yunluo exhaled a heavy sigh of relief inwardly, but at the same time, she felt inexplicably disappointed—it seemed her good days with Ye Anping were over.
Ten days were definitely not enough…
“Right, I made some pastries, would you like to have some?”
“No… Senior Brother is waiting for me. I’ll go back now.”
“Ah… Mm.”
After watching Pei Lianxue leave, Xiao Yunluo stood dazed in the courtyard for a while. Then she looked down at the two servings of breakfast she had just made. After thinking for a moment, she finally returned to the room and ate both servings of breakfast.
After eating, she only felt a bloated stomach, a stuffy chest, and a sense of deep disappointment.
