Chapter 4: Martial Sister Is a Troublesome Little Elf!
Tong Yao never thought her nose was very perceptive.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to rack her brain to make up heroic deeds of Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian.
Isn’t it delightful to follow Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s footsteps as a "war correspondent"?
She is not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and is capable of working both uphill and in caves.
However, Tong Yao has great confidence in her own judgement!
When Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s reputation was not prominent, and was even looked down upon by many, Astrid noticed Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s uniqueness due to a sudden inspiration.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, the light of her life, the flame of her faith!
The fact proved that she didn’t make a mistake.
Raising a fierce eagle, defeating the evil dragon, and even slaying the Demon King – these things are nothing.
What Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian did was far more impressive than what she had imagined diligently.
Isn’t this an excellent taste?
Tong Yao felt that if she became a madam, she could lay off and provide job opportunities for all the madams in the world.
Therefore, upon realizing that there was an unusual scent on Yu Ying, she didn’t suspect it to be a delusion.
Of course, she didn’t take the initiative to remind her either.
There’s no need.
This despicable woman from the Qiongming Peak has great enmity towards her, even though she has hardly ever held Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s hand before.
This is truly unreasonable!
Tong Yao expressed her anger.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is such a prominent figure, what’s wrong with giving her a share?
She didn’t intend to completely dominate Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, these foolish women don’t know any better.
You novice fellows, if you were to "discuss" with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian during her prime, you probably wouldn’t be able to hold on for even an hour.
By this calculation, it would take twelve people just to barely occupy Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian when she is not using the avatar technique for a day!
Even if we include Master An Lan and the silly rabbit, the Qiongming Peak can only muster six people at most.
Hi.
Tong Yao shook her head.
There aren’t many people as clever as her nowadays.
[Why doesn’t Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian know about it? Unlike your other Martial Sisters, I’m the only one who cares for you!]
Despite her anger, Tong Yao still behaved kindly.
Compared to the other "assholes", Yu Ying is actually quite decent.
Her honesty and sincerity are endearing.
Tong Yao and Yu Ying greeted each other and continued to climb up to the top of the Qiongming Peak.
She came with an eager heart, wanting to improve Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s favorability, but to her disappointment, she was blocked at the door.
In the howling storm, a fiery-red, semi-transparent aura enveloped the small courtyard.
After some hesitation, Tong Yao gave up her plan to force her way in.
She distinctly saw that the crooked-neck tree outside Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s window was lit up.
"It looks like this time it’s really going to be burned down."
The tree is ugly, but if you look at it enough, you get used to it. It would be a pity if it was gone.
Tong Yao stood quietly at the door.
After dozens of breaths, she received a message from Bai Lian.
Bai Lian told her that she was helping Xiao Jinse improve her skills, and also informed her that she was completely alright.
Initially, Tong Yao was planning to wait a little longer.
Time?
She has plenty of it.
After refining the Netherworld Seal, she gained the automatic effect of cultivation, and her cultivation base would increase rapidly without her doing anything.
Cultivation?
Going for a walk, chatting, hanging around with younger Martial Brothers and sisters to provoke them, secretly drinking the master’s wine, and then being hung up and beaten – these are her daily activities.
That appearance resembled those graduates who had already obtained a qualified admission for further study.
But Tong Yao suddenly received good news from Bai Lian.
"Nighttime classes, which were suspended for a while before, will resume tonight. I will carefully check your progress in cultivation base."
My goodness.
As soon as Tong Yao heard this, she turned her head and ran away.
She needed to prepare well so that she could have more one-on-one teaching time with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!
In the room, seeing Tong Yao temporarily leave, Bai Lian shifted her attention back to the second Martial Sister who was sweating profusely.
Her task was not much, only to keep an eye on Qing Luan and the second Martial Sister, and to intervene immediately if there were any problems.
However, having nothing else to do, she would often take the opportunity to help the second Martial Sister by wiping her body clean.
At that moment, Qing Luan suddenly opened her eyes which had been tightly shut.
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, quickly…we’re almost there!"
The scorching Qing Luan heat baked inside the room, and her cheeks were as red as a ripe apple.
Bai Lian understood.
This is the prelude before lighting the "Divine Fire"!
She took a step forward, "I’m here!"
Bai Lian put out a hand.
The pure Yin energy rushed into Xiao Jinse’s abdomen like a tidal wave.
It is the closest point to the Qi Sea.
It is also the place where the origin of life is nurtured.
With this infusion, the two opposing forces of Yin and Yang collided, causing Xiao Jinse’s body to shake violently as if there was an earthquake.
Her mouth began to emit some unclear sounds and she almost fainted due to it.
At the critical moment, Bai Lian gently grabbed the hand of the second Martial Sister.
The icy feeling from the palm instantly calmed down Xiao Jinse who was on the verge of breaking down.
She still had a long way to go.
Her path had not yet officially intersected with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, so how could she stop now?
A flash of green flames illuminated the boundless darkness.
The Qi Sea, gathering countless spirit Qis, was ignited at this moment.
Xiao Jinse’s body underwent changes that neither she nor Bai Lian had expected!
Undoubtedly, this is a positive change.
In "The Battle of the Gods," the flames wielded by the second Martial Sister were primarily destructive, immensely powerful, and even pierced through "Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian" using a column of fire when she was seeking revenge in a state of corruption.
However, the flames that have now been ignited are harboring new life amidst their ferocity.
Its destructive power may have decreased slightly, but its endurance has greatly increased.
This is somewhat similar to Bai Lian’s Snow Spiritual Root.
They could engage in a grand and protracted battle if they were to fight.
In addition, Bai Lian also found that the second Martial Sister had awakened an ability similar to her Water Spirit Special Effect.
As soon as she operates her cultivation method, the fire-type spirit Qi will automatically gather around her body, and the benefits of this for improving her cultivation speed are self-evident.
"Puff~"
Xiao Jinse suppressed all her scorching breaths.
She opened her eyes, gently playing with her earlobe-length hair like a mature older sister just return from the scorching sun.
Beads of sweat glistened like pearls.
Fragrant like the scent of flowers.
In the next moment, Xiao Jinse excitedly embraced Bai Lian.
"Elder Martial Sister, thank you!"
She was completely generous in using her soft side to comfort Bai Lian.
The gentle ripples stirred up countless circles of ripples.
If it weren’t for Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian bringing her out of the wall with no way out, she would never have grown to where she is today.
"Don’t rush into cultivation these days, first stabilize your cultivation base."
Bai Lian gently caressed the head of the second Martial Sister and spoke.
"Mmm."
Xiao Jinse slightly bowed her head.
This scene fully displayed the sisterly affection of the Qiongming Peak, making Qing Luan envious.
She also wanted to get involved!
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s back still empty, adding one more person should not be a big problem, right?
Although she wanted to act, Qing Luan didn’t dare to move.
She was afraid that Master An Lan would suddenly appear again, and her fragile heart could not withstand multiple scares.
Xiao Jinse released Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian and ran excitedly towards her.
"Elder Martial Sister Qing Luan, thank you."
Pa.
Qing Luan’s hand was grabbed.
She could feel that Xiao Jinse’s gratitude was sincere, and the subtle guard that was previously present temporarily disappeared.
She said with a smile, "As Elder Martial Sisters, it’s only natural that we help each other."
Speaking of this, Qing Luan suddenly had a bold idea!
Her disadvantage was too great.
If she were to launch an attack on Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian without any strategy, she would surely be resisted by the people of the Qiongming Peak.
Apart from losing, she couldn’t think of any other outcome.
Just like the master said–
"It’s just like battling a strong enemy, you must have tactics!"
The advice given by the master was for her to improve herself and then "tempt" Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian.
Therefore, she diligently studied the 108 postures of sex.
This greatly expanded her knowledge.
However, she still felt unreliable.
If she couldn’t even get the opportunity to meet Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian skin-to-skin, how could she let her know about her goodness?
Indeed it is necessary to coordinate with other tactics to make it work!
Qing Luan focused on Xiao Jinse.
She was playing with fire, and so was Xiao Jinse.
She has an admiration towards Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, as does Xiao Jinse; therefore, they ought to be allies!
You should know that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s body is extremely cold, so it is most suitable for her to be sandwiched between bodies as hot as hers and Xiao Jinse’s.
It’s so healing!
Qing Luan couldn’t help but praise her own wit.
The military books of the mortal world say it well: when the enemy unites to defend the city, she must not force an attack but find ways to split and sow discord among them, intensifying their contradictions before ultimately defeating them one by one.
Now that she has established a good relationship with Xiao Jinse, if she can make good use of this, she still has the possibility of successfully attacking the "White Emperor City"!
Thinking of this, Qing Luan laughed even more happily.
If not for fear of harming the source, she would have split her Qing Luan’s Flames in half and given them to Xiao Jinse.
However, this goal is not so easily achievable.
Xiao Jinse’s hostility was only temporarily eliminated and she still had to make a great effort to gain Xiao Jinse’s trust.
During this period, she had to do her best to restrain her desire to get close with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian.
Only by enduring hardships can one become an outstanding person.
Qing Luan has decided to give it her all!
At this moment.
Xiao Jinse’s fondness for Qing Luan skyrocketed.
She didn’t know how strong the fourth Martial Sister was now, but definitely stronger than before she left.
Qing Luan’s help was like a soothing rain on her restless heart.
Regardless of Qing Luan’s true intentions, gratitude was still due.
To Xiao Jinse’s surprise, Qing Luan exhibited an exceedingly affable demeanor.
Truthfully, upon careful consideration, apart from yearning for a "deeper communication" with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, Qing Luan’s reputation at the Qiongming Peak has been consistently favorable.
She was once a formidable genius at Yunluo Peak, a strong contender for sect leader, although not particularly sociable, she never belittled disciples with lower abilities.
Xiao Jinse and Qing Luan were happy, and Bai Lian shared in their joy as well.
She said, "Go and inform the other Martial Sisters that the night class will resume tonight. I will thoroughly check your cultivation base progress."
Xiao Jinse quickly responded.
Qing Luan was a little stunned.
Shouldn’t she have left the stage by now?
"Martial Sister Qing Luan, if you wish, you may also stay."
Bai Lian’s idea is very simplistic.
Qing Luan’s cultivation base is stronger than those of ordinary Transmigration Stage cultivators, her insight into the Tao Halo would benefit the Duxian sect, without any drawbacks.
A dazzling radiance emanated from Qing Luan’s eyes.
"Mmm-hmm."
She nodded excitedly.
"I also want to accept the guidance of Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian. After two years of separation, it will also give Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian a chance to test my depth!"
Bai Lian smiled as she watched the second Martial Sister and Qing Luan depart from her view.
It’s good that they didn’t start fighting!
At first, she was worried that the second Martial Sister would not accept Qing Luan’s kindness.
Indeed, she was overthinking things.
The second Martial Sister’s character had already been established during those tumultuous sixteen years.
Even though her living environment and the game are completely different, her way of dealing with people has not changed much.
The title of Holy Spirit Goddess is not something that was created out of thin air.
She only resorts to extremely cruel methods when facing "Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian".
After all, "Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian" forced her to sacrifice her dignity and personality so many times in the game.
In any case, this situation is quite good!
A wave of affection warmly enveloped her.
On this quiet afternoon, Bai Lian propped up her chin with one hand and contentedly surveyed the misty world shrouded in "bloody rain".
It seems somewhat different.
"I see."
Bai Lian stood up suddenly.
The crooked-neck tree that always swayed outside the window unexpectedly turned into a puddle of black ashes!
Fortunately, it had just died, being dead but not completely dead.
Thinking about the time when she had her first confession with her master on the tree, she jumped out without hesitation.
"Thousands of Flowers!"
The flowers bloomed one by one in the rain.
Millions of vitality flowed into the black and grey like a surging river.
In the next moment, a magical scene appeared.
The crooked-neck tree grew back again.
It grew to the same size as before, still crooked as before.
The only difference may be that it has become more spiritual than before.
Bai Lian looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction.
Actually, her most cherished possession was still the branch that she had sat on with her master.
It wouldn’t do if the branch were lost.
Bai Lian returned to her own room.
It will be a while before the night class starts, and as a "master" she has to prepare her lessons in advance.
Tonight, she was not only going to take off her shoes and stockings and lift her skirt.
The winter rain gradually subsided, and the rain kept falling.
It was time to go to bed.
The night surrounded the mountain.
People entered the small courtyard, lit with dim yellow lights, one by one.
Naturally, the fastest to arrive were Xiao Jinse and the jade rabbit.
The five of them were originally cultivating in the back mountain. Entering Bai Lian’s room was as easy as going home.
The next one to arrive was Qing Luan.
A divine light shimmered in the young girl’s blue eyes.
She didn’t feel sorrowful for being isolated in the corner.
Now that she has found the suitable path for fighting, she is full of enthusiasm.
It wasn’t Tong Yao who arrived afterwards, but An Lan, who had intoxicated herself by drinking the Taiyin water.
She concealed herself behind the crooked neck tree, using spells derived from the Great Tao to hide her figure, ensuring that she wouldn’t be discovered by Bai Lian.
How could she, as a master, not keep a close eye on her disciples, especially when they were up to no good in the room?
Do you agree, crooked-neck tree?
An Lan grabbed the crooked-neck tree with force, causing the bark to crack and wood chips to fly.
Finally.
At a quarter past nine, Tong Yao hurriedly ran in from the door.
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, my apologies for arriving late as there were some miscellaneous matters that needed attending to at Qingyu Peak."
She looked at Bai Lian sitting at the dressing table with a face full of apology.
The bright-eyed and white-toothed young girl was wearing a modified cheongsam, with the hem only just above her thighs.
The rope on the side was tied casually.
Her long legs were overlapped, the white sock on her right foot was gone, and only one shoe was still half-hanging on her round toes.
"Let’s find a place to sit down."
Bai Lian said as she put down the scroll in her hand.
Before everyone can truly appreciate her Tao Halo, she needs to carefully check her Martial Sisters’ cultivation base progress.
On one hand, it is to facilitate her plans for her Martial Sisters, on the other hand, it is to spur her Martial Sisters to not slack off.
Bai Lian has fully prepared.
However, the change in the situation completely caught her off guard.
As she called out Tong Yao, the young girl with two soft ponytails happily ran over, swaying as she went.
Afterwards…
Dah!
Tong Yao’s raised right foot tensed up.
It’s not an illusion!
In truth, she had caught a whiff of that peculiar odor when she just entered the room.
It’s not exactly unpleasant, after getting used to it, it actually becomes somewhat exciting.
At first she thought the scent was all coming from Yu Ying, but it wasn’t until she got close to Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian that she realized she was wrong.
"I must confirm it again!"
And so.
In front of everyone, Tong Yao suddenly squatted down.
With both hands lightly supporting the ground, she leaned her head forward towards Bai Lian’s right foot.
"?"
"¿"
"؟¿زذ?"
A myriad of question marks suddenly appeared in the room.
Then came the sound of chairs being moved.
Xiao Jinse, Qing Luan, and others could not sit still anymore.
Purple ponytail foolish woman, what madness are you up to?
Do you want to lick Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s feet in front of us? Is this a sign of having a death wish?
Several spells were cast, seemingly about to strike Tong Yao’s back.
At this moment, Tong Yao’s nose twitched slightly, and as she sniffed, she caught a scent from Bai Lian’s right foot all the way up to her thigh.
What kind of scenes has Bai Lian not experienced?
But this scene really left her bewildered!
She always thought she was quite brave, but in front of Martial Sister Tong Yao, she was just a little sister.
If their roles were reversed, she would probably have killed herself.
Damn it!
It’s not her fault.
After all, there are a bit too many people in her envisioned future, and instability won’t do.
Just as she was attempting to hold down Tong Yao, Tong Yao suddenly broke away on her own.
The young girl pressed her nostrils with her right hand and turned around gravely, saying, "I knew I wasn’t mistaken!"
Suddenly, a new task option emerged before Bai Lian’s eyes.
[Task 1: Immediately stop Tong Yao (Reward: Extreme Sunfire)]
[Task 2: Allow Tong Yao to act freely (Reward: Hard Skill +2)]
"?"
There were even more question marks above Bai Lian’s head.
Extreme Sunfire was different from the Extreme Sun Flame she had seen before; it was used for refining tools and was worth no less than 15 points of Focus
What is it that Martial Sister Tong Yao wants to say after all?
She quickly figured it out.
"When we arrived at the Qiongming Peak at noon, I smelled a strange smell on Junior Martial Sister Yu Ying. And just now, I found the same smell on Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"Ah?"
When Xiao Jinse and the others were still puzzled, Yu Ying’s face changed first.
Impossible!
She cleaned up very seriously after tempering the sword because she was afraid of being exposed.
Moreover, besides the scent of their bodies, she and Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian didn’t have any other smell at all.
This must be a blind guess by Tong Yao.
Calm down, it’s crucial to stay calm!
However, when several pairs of eyes turned to her at once, Yu Ying still panicked.
"I…"
Xiao Jinse asked, "The Fourth Martial Sister, what’s going on?"
Yu Ying hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I don’t know if Elder Martial Sister Tong has made a mistake."
"Yes, yes," Bai Lian immediately nodded in agreement.
She definitely didn’t do anything strange with the fourth Martial Sister.
But the sensitive Hong Yi didn’t believe it.
[There is not a single good person in the Qiongming Peak, including the foolish-looking Ling Xuan!]
She said with a sinister smile, "Fourth Martial Sister, you wouldn’t have taken advantage of Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian’s unconsciousness and done something to her, would you?"
"Absolutely not!"
Yu Ying interrupted Hong Yi excitedly.
"I swear, really, I have never done anything bad to Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian after she fell unconscious."
Because it was all done while Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian was awake!
As she spoke, Yu Ying’s eyes turned red, with a glimmer of moisture in them.
The appearance of her tears about to fall was truly pitiful.
"…"
Bai Lian opened her mouth slightly.
She understood why the risk of Task 1 was so high.
If she stops Tong Yao, this matter could likely be reported to the master’s ears.
Once the suspicious master finds the fourth Martial Sister in person, under coercion, she is highly likely to confess the truth.
Then the consequences…
So scary!
Bai Lian instinctively supported her waist and pressed down on her leg.
Afraid (Bai Lian Limited Edition)!
"Elder Martial Sister Tong, have you made a mistake?"
Xiao Jinse hesitated for a moment before asking.
Tong Yao spoke vehemently, "It’s impossible, I definitely didn’t make a mistake!"
Isn’t it just a matter of swearing?
Yu Ying can do it, and she will!
"…"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became eerie.
Su Youwei and Hong Yi looked at each other, unsure of what they were thinking.
The jade rabbit perched on the top of Ling Xuan’s head had its ears grabbed by her.
Qing Luan, who was huddled in the corner, forcibly suppressed the urge to burst out laughing.
She was considering how to provoke conflict just now, but as it turns out, the issue was resolved before she even had a chance to act.
Thank you, Tong Yao!
Xiao Jinse remained silent.
The Fourth Martial Sister and Tong Yao both made an oath. As there was no thunder to strike them down, it was evident that they were telling the truth.
But there must be something fishy about this!
The clues could be read from the panicked expression on the face of the fourth Martial Sister!
She had always thought that the fourth Martial Sister was the most honest person on the Qiongming Peak.
But when she turned around and looked back —
The honest person was actually me?
Damn it.
This day cannot be endured anymore!
