Pfft~
"Senior Sister will take you."
Ye Qingxuan was very fond of this adorable little girl, gently taking her hand.
"Junior Sister, I also want to…"
A fawning voice rang out from not far away. Tiannan Peak was truly lively tonight. Xu Zhimo had naturally been worried for a while when he saw Ye Qingxuan, fearing the plan wouldn't succeed.
But seeing her face flushed with color, he knew that with his Junior Brother's intervention, it was a sure thing. It seemed he had convinced Junior Sister Qing Xuan.
"Go to hell!"
"So impatient again, Junior Sister Yi Jiang is still here…"
Ye Qingxuan said nothing, simply drawing her sword, determined to lop off the dog's head of the person before her.
Yun Kui Mountain Rule Number One: Never give the Senior Brother a good look. This person is best at taking an inch and a mile, deceiving, swindling, and being glib-tongued.
The tip of her sword was less than ten centimeters from Xu Zhimo's neck.
He smacked his lips and immediately caved in, saying,
"Ahem, I mean, I also wanted to ask."
"Ask what?"
"Junior Sister stayed with Junior Brother Yun Ming until so late. What were you doing? A man and a woman alone, isn't that against the rules?"
Yi Xuan blinked her eyes. She wanted to say that this Senior Brother had mistaken her, but seeing Senior Sister's furious face, she decided it was better not to speak.
However, what was Senior Sister doing with Senior Brother Yun Ming, staying so late? She was also very curious.
Just then, another head popped out from inside the room.
Yi Jiang's sleep was always very light, but today, lying on the soft big bed, she naturally fell into a comfortable deep sleep. But when she woke up, her sister was gone.
She also heard faint arguing outside the door.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister… It's so late, is something wrong?"
"Nothing. I just happened to run into Yi Xuan and came to say a few words."
Ye Qingxuan finished speaking, giving Senior Brother a fierce glare.
She swiftly sheathed her sword, but her words were anything but soft.
"It's late. When I left, Yun'er was already resting. If Senior Brother has something, come back tomorrow."
Under her threatening gaze, Xu Zhimo had no choice but to surrender, walking out the door helplessly, but his heart was filled with disdain.
Junior Sister was truly joking. If others didn't know, didn't he? Junior Brother Yun Ming hadn't slept for a long time.
This kid advised others to balance work and rest, but he himself would secretly work himself to death every night, his cultivation soaring like eating and drinking water.
For a while, he actually believed this kid's nonsense: "My cultivation, ah, it just grows on its own without me doing anything, but occasionally I still need to cultivate a bit."
"Senior Brother, ah, that's talent, there's no helping it."
Truly asking for a beating.
He walked towards the outside of Tiannan Peak, but after disappearing from Ye Qingxuan's sight, he immediately climbed onto the roof, preparing to sneak in quietly after Junior Sister left.
In Qi Yun Courtyard, Ye Qingxuan stood outside the restroom, also letting out a sigh of relief.
Yun Kui Mountain did not have too many restrictions, but to prevent certain accidents, it was still forbidden for female and male disciples to visit each other's rooms at night.
If someone reported it to their master, she would probably not escape a public scolding, but she figured Senior Brother wouldn't dare.
"What is Senior Sister holding?"
Yi Jiang was a little curious. The cold wind outside made her shiver, and she also sobered up. Her sister might be a bit silly and hadn't noticed anything.
But just now, they said Senior Sister Qing Xuan stayed with Senior Brother Yun Ming until very late, right? Senior Sister's blush had not faded yet… She put her hands behind her back, inexplicably clenching them tightly, but then quickly loosened them, feeling a little flustered inside.
"A painting. Yun'er is very skilled at painting."
Ye Qingxuan gently unrolled the scroll, and under the moonlight, somewhat proudly presented the painting to her Junior Sister for appreciation.
The painting was beautiful.
But Yi Jiang felt that the smiling Ye Qingxuan, with a face like a blooming flower, was the true beauty under the moon.
It was clear that Senior Sister liked it very much.
"Senior Brother paints really well, but it's also because Senior Sister is beautiful, that's why the painting is good…"
"Junior Sister Yi Jiang has such sweet words."
"Mm…"
…The next morning.
The rising sun dispelled the clouds and fog.
Yi Jiang slowly woke up and also roused her sister. Senior Sister had mentioned yesterday that breakfast was before eight o'clock.
"Sister, is it time to eat?"
"Yes, if we go late, there won't be any left."
Yi Xuan instantly sprang up from the bed, firmly hugging her sister's waist, "Sister, don't scare me, let's get up quickly and eat."
After washing up, the two put on new clothes and rushed towards Wanmin Restaurant. Senior Sister was indeed already waiting there.
Today, she also had to take her two Junior Sisters to the school. Actually, Ye Qingxuan didn't need to come personally, but she still decided to take extra care of them.
"This morning, your Senior Brothers went down the mountain to buy char siu bao. The timing suggests they should be back soon. Remember to be proactive and ask for them."
Yi Jiang understood. Yesterday, Senior Brother Yun Ming had told her about all the rules on the mountain. She glanced at her sister beside her, who was indeed already drooling.
Little foodie~
But she still underestimated the competitiveness of the Senior Brothers and Sisters. Yi Xuan couldn't squeeze through at all, and she herself also found it difficult to move.
In the end, she only managed to snatch one char siu bao.
Yi Xuan cried, not because she was being childish or felt bullied, but because she felt too useless. Taking the bun her sister handed her, she broke it in half.
Half for her sister, half for her.
She stuffed it into her mouth, her sobs muffled and unclear. It was so delicious!
Just then, Ye Qingxuan, who had just disappeared, reappeared, secretly pulling out a few char siu bao from behind her back.
The older Senior Brothers and Sisters, of course, could earn money to buy buns to eat themselves, which was perfectly understandable.
She gave one to each of them, stuffing the mouths of the two little ones. Hearing only muffled sounds, she found it particularly amusing, and with a bright smile, she looked at them and explained,
"Here, your Senior Brother entrusted me to take good care of you two."
"Thank you, Senior Sister…"
Yi Jiang secretly glanced around but didn't see any trace of Yun Ming. Early this morning, she had even specifically snuck over to take a look.
Still didn't see him.
"Looking for your Senior Brother? He went down the mountain today."
"Mm…"
Yi Jiang ate her bun in small bites, but her mind recalled Yun Ming's mischievous smile. Senior Brother is a big liar, Senior Brother is so annoying… Yun Ming: How am I a liar?!
But sometimes, girls don't make sense.
Ah, achoo!
In the streets and alleys of Chenghui Flat, a young man with a sword on his back sneezed. He rubbed his nose, wondering who was thinking of him.
Although his divination skills were a mess, his perception of fate was exceptionally sensitive. Danger, good luck, someone thinking of him—he could sense all of these.
"Junior Brother, I said we didn't need to rush down like this, did we? You woke me up before dawn."
Xu Zhimo yawned. He had slept late last night, and he wasn't like Yun Ming, who could replace sleep with meditation.
Waking up so early, the Blackwood family might not even be awake, and besides, it was agreed to go to a private hospital in Ailidu for treatment.
A little earlier or a little later didn't matter. Rushing like this, people might think they had betrayed their sect.
"Senior Brother, the sword is gone."
"What sword is gone? You traded that broken sword of yours for the Qing Ming Sword, and you're still upset about it?"
Xu Zhimo couldn't understand the other party's thought process.
"No, I mean the Qing Ming Sword is gone."
"Oh, the Qing Ming Sword is gone, you say…"
"Ha! The Qing Ming Sword… is gone!?"
