"Young Master, did you see something nice?"
Xinyao put away the bells and stood up again.
This time, she circled around to adjust the angle, making the young man lying on the ground face the other way. This way, when Yino raised his head, he could just look up and meet Xinyao's gaze.
"....."
Yino remained silent, because he neither understood the other party's attitude nor knew how to answer such an embarrassing question.
Xinyao's right foot stood between Yino's legs, while her left foot was raised to lightly step on Yino's chest, twisting and rubbing playfully.
Unlike the previous angle when his face was covered by the red skirt, this time Yino could experience the girl's scrutiny from above in first-person perspective. He could even faintly smell a sweet scent of rouge and perfume from her milky white feet--
"Young Master, what color did you see?"
She spoke again, still in a playful tone.
As she talked, Xinyao also spat out the broken blade piece from her mouth, casually tossing it onto the floor next to Yino's face.
"B-black..."
Yino remained silent for a long time, finally closing his eyes with some difficulty in speaking.
Xinyao's phoenix eyes were playful. While pressing Yino with her jade foot, she also leaned forward slightly, resting her right arm on her left knee, and interestedly bent down to pinch Yino's cheek:
"What a pity, the black is just safety shorts~"
"..."
Yino didn't dare to speak, just nodding slightly.
Under the crimson mask, the girl's phoenix eyes narrowed suspiciously, her gaze suddenly darting towards Yino's lower body.
"Do you feel disappointed?"
"No..."
"Is that so..."
Not seeing any raised tent, Xinyao's smile at the corner of her lips gradually faded.
Seeing that Yino had no reaction even after such teasing, she suddenly lost interest. She snorted coldly and withdrew her foot from Yino's chest. She folded her arms across her chest, the red silk of her Western Region style dress slowly falling, and even her gaze towards the young man on the ground reflected some gentleness again.
"Young Master, don't look at me so lifelessly~ Are you afraid you won't be able to leave the Hundred Spirits Pavilion today?"
"....."
Yino was silent for a moment, finally lowering his eyelids with some despair: "Where is Senior Sister Yunjin?"
"Seventh floor, Waiting Chamber. The little girl should be eating happily right now."
"...?"
Yino blinked in confusion.
He turned his gaze to the black-clothed girl behind the red-robed girl, but she also shrugged with a puzzled look, as if she had never understood why the two people in the room had started fighting from beginning to end.
"What's wrong, this young lady already given you thousands of pills for free. Do I look like someone so evil that I need to make money off a little girl?"
Seeing that Yino was truly worried about that girl, Xinyao couldn't help but snort coldly, retracting her previous teasing tone.
"Then… why did you lie to me..."
Yino scratched his head, supporting himself on the nearby long chair to sit up from the floor. Searᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Thinking carefully, what the Hundred Spirits Pavilion Master said made sense. Yino had just been focusing on the game plot and the theory of destiny lately, so he was particularly sensitive about Yunjin's safety. He felt guilty for changing the timeline on his own, so Yino was afraid that in the blink of an eye, the cute novice guide would vanish and die before him.
"I just wanted to test you." Xinyao shrugged.
"Test me?"
"Mhm~"
As Xinyao chatted, her voice suddenly became fainter, and she became quite embarrassed.
She couldn't possibly say that she wanted to test Yino's relationship with Yunjin, to see if he already had a girl he liked.
At some point, Xinyao swallowed these words and reorganized her words:
"To test how much cultivation Young Master really has, to see how much skill you're hiding from your dear aunt."
"Couldn't you just ask me directly?"
Yino sighed, feeling a headache from her straightforward way of doing things.
Indeed, the rumors were true. This Hundred Spirits Pavilion Master really had a wicked sense of humor, making up such a vicious lie just to test Yino's strength.
-How much strength am I hiding, is it so important to her? To go to such lengths to provoke me?-
"If I asked you directly, would you tell me the truth?" The red-robed girl snorted coldly, sitting back down in her long chair.
"Why wouldn't I?"
Yino raised his eyebrows, truly unable to understand her logic.
"If you would really tell the Pavilion Master the truth, then why would you risk your life for a strange senior sister?"
Xinyao sat on the long chair, crossing her legs under her dress again, tapping her foots.
This time, she could safely shake her leg to relieve tension, because she had completely put away that string of bells.
"I..."
Yino took a deep breath, also left speechless.
"Alright, you're right. I actually do like her a little."
"I'm going to tell your auntie about this!"
The red-robed girl suddenly spoke as her mouth slightly puffed up under the mask, and even her phoenix eyes narrowed imperceptibly with jealousy.
At these words, Yino's heart immediately tightened.
But soon, he thought of something and relaxed, shrugging nonchalantly: "So what if you tell her? She only told me to go to Wuji Sect to cultivate well. She never said I couldn't bring a few girls back to the Grand Tutor's Mansion in the future."
"A-a few girls? So the one you like isn't just that Yunjin?" Xinyao's phoenix eyes narrowed, as if the more she inquired, the more her little heart couldn't take this stimulation.
"Isn't this normal? My aunty is always being set up for blind dates at the Grand Tutor's Mansion! She doesn't want to date, but can she require me not to continue the He family lineage? I'm sure the elders in my family are all looking forward to holding a chubby baby soon!"
Yino waved his hand, fully immersing himself in the background of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, speaking more and more matter-of-factly, without any fear.
However, as he spoke about continuing the family line, the red-robed girl behind the curtain suddenly stopped the light tapping.
Her gaze became cold, showing no emotion, just staring blankly at Yino.
"Young Master certainly has life plans. So going to Wuji Sect to cultivate was just to hook up with several girls to sleep together and continue the Grand Tutor's family line?"
Xinyao recited word by word. Towards the end, she couldn't help but snort coldly, shaking her head with a sigh as if amused by anger: "I really didn't see it coming. Young Master is so young, yet already shouldering such a heavy responsibility!"
"That's right, the young master of the neighboring Li family's Grand Tutor Mansion got married at fourteen! Me dating at sixteen in the He family is already considered late!"
"So, can I leave now?"
In the end, Yino shrugged, feeling somewhat impatient.
After all, she was just the Hundred Spirits Pavilion Master, just a businesswoman. Yino really didn't want to discuss these personal life plans with her.
The red-robed girl's lips twitched slightly, but she still put on a smile and nodded:
"Take care."
"However, Young Master should take care of his body when returning to the sect. Don't be like certain holy sons with improper private lives who ruin their kidneys at a young age! Every time they can only rely on medicine to regain their vigor!"
"If you just wither away like that, the elders in your family would probably beat you to death."
Towards the end, she pursed her vermilion lips. Watching the young man's gradually receding figure, she couldn't help but tremble slightly, clenching her hands into fists in anger. The more she imagined what Yino said, the more she felt like her little pig was going to root in someone else's cabbage patch. But the problem was...
Xinyao had worked so hard to fatten up her little pig, only for someone else's cabbage to take his first time in less than a month. How unfair!
Above the clouds of the Northern Luo Snowy Mountains, a huge immortal ship slowly sailed.
Not far away, a white-robed maiden landed on the deck, meeting the gazes of many returning Wuji Sect disciples--
"Where's Yino?"
"Young master Yino?"
Several disciples scratched their heads, also feeling puzzled.
They all shook their heads saying they hadn't seen him, until the white-robed maiden's cold gaze landed on the red-robed girl sitting alone by the railing watching the scenery--
"Jinyue, didn't you leave with Yino?"
"No, I didn't."
The girl turned her head, blinking her charming eyes, looking innocent.
At this moment, Yuyan raised her eyebrows slightly, resting her hand on her chin.
"When we were returning from Snow Village, Yino said he had some things to do, so only he and Yunjin stayed on the snowy mountain."
Remembering the scene of Yino holding hands with Yunjin, Jinyue immediately felt a bit unhappy and tattled to the senior sister.
But after hearing this, Yuyan's cold face turned even paler--
"But I just went around Snow Village and didn't see Yino or Yunjin at all."
