Chapter 353 - The Protagonist Extorts Money!

Dong... Dong---

Autumn morning sunlight sprinkled above the peaks of the Hundred Lotus Sect as the morning bell on the Main Peak rang loudly, signaling the arrival of a new day.

The petals in the sea of ​​flowers on the Main Peak were scattered in all directions by the sword wind.

Feng Yu Die waved her sword alone, her long silver hair dancing with her figure as her fragrant sweat had already soaked her plain white robe.

Whoosh---

"Huuu..."

Feng Yu Die closed her eyes and calmed her breathing, then put away the emerald sword, concluding the sword practice for the day.

Four years had passed since she first met Sister Pei and was rescued by her and brought to the Hundred Lotus Sect.

Now that she had returned here, she felt unusually emotional.

Sister Pei was still the same as before. She spoke very little, but she was very brave, cool, and beautiful, and she was still wholeheartedly devoted to her.

However, the image of Young Master Ye in her heart had changed quite a bit.

The first impression Young Master Ye gave her was just as her master had said, that he was a nasty man who wanted to take advantage of her because she was beautiful and talented.

But after more than four years of getting along, she found that Master Ye was treating her very well.

Not only did he help her earn a lot of spirit stones, but every time she was injured, he was the first one to run over to treat her and buy her roasted chicken.

She felt safe staying by Ye Anping's side as if, as long as he was there, the sky could fall and she would still be safe and sound even if she didn't think about anything.

This was what she had experienced.

However, her master said: 'There is no good man in the world'.

Young Master Ye has a 'bird', so he is a man...

Feng Yu Die pouted, feeling as if there was a knot inside her head and her chest was stuffy at the same time.

She couldn't tell why it was like this, but since the Imperial Sect events, every time she thought of Ye Anping, she felt a little uncomfortable. Only when he brought her roasted chicken did this discomfort disappear.

After a while, she opened her collar slightly and looked down at her chest.

"Blessed by Heaven" and "Ye Anping" were still clearly printed on her chest without any sign of fading.

This was left when Ye Anping was trying to save her with the Nine Dragons Heavenly Seal.

She had asked Xiao Tian, and she said that it had no effect and that it would naturally disappear after a while, so she didn't care too much.

But now...

Feng Yu Die had reason to suspect that these words were related to the chest tightness she felt when she thought of Ye Anping.

She thought for a while, then summoned the flying sword, stepped on it, and took off from the sea of ​​flowers, flying toward the Eastern Peak.

The Eastern Peak was originally reserved by Ye Ao for Ye Anping. Because Ye Anping rarely returned to the Hundred Lotus Sect and did not care about planning, there were only a few scattered pavilions on the peak.

Arriving at the pavilion, Feng Yu Die went directly and opened the door.

Bang---

"Young Master Ye!... Not here..."

The first floor of the pavilion was mostly empty, with only a few scattered pieces of furniture. She looked around and saw that Ye Anping was not there, so she ran up the stairs to the second floor.

"Young Master Ye?... Not here either..."

The second floor was also empty. It looked like a study room, with a rather luxurious alchemy furnace inside.

Feng Yu Die looked around curiously. Just like a visitor, she opened the door of each room, poked her head in, and called out, "Young Master Ye?"

After calling "Master Ye" more than ten times, she finally reached the top floor of the pavilion.

Bang---

"Young Master Ye!!"

Seeing the room, Feng Yu Die was stunned, and her voice stopped abruptly. She saw a few pieces of clothing scattered on the floor next to a double bed, and two pairs of shoes were placed crookedly beside the bed.

Ye Anping, who was still sleeping, was startled by her sudden shout and woke up.

Xiao Yunluo, lying naked on Ye Anping's shoulder, was also awakened by Ye Anping's sudden rise.

She rubbed her eyes in a daze and looked at Ye Anping who was holding her. "Anping, what's wrong?"

Seeing Ye Anping staring at the door, she slowly turned her head to look.

When she saw the second idiot standing at the door, Xiao Yunluo's lavender eyes slowly widened, and her pupils shrank into a small dot.

Feng Yu Die blinked, looked at Ye Anping's chest, and then looked at Sister Xiao who was naked and disheveled. She was about to ask what they were doing when suddenly...

Xiao Yunluo was stunned and looked at Ye Anping with wide eyes, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Feng Yu Die looked at Xiao Yunluo blankly and nodded to show that she understood. "Oh... I get it. But why? "

"Yunluo likes it."

Xiao Yunluo: ?!

Feng Yu Die said, "Oh... And do you like it too, Young Master Ye?"

Ye Anping nodded straightforwardly. "I like it."

"Is that so..."

Feng Yu Die looked at Xiao Yunluo as if she wanted to say something but didn't.

The room suddenly fell silent. Xiao Yunluo lowered her head, blushing and rubbing her hands.

Ye Anping looked at the two of them, silently sighing. "Alright, go back and start packing. Aren't you going back to the Black Star Sect today? Go say goodbye to my sister. We won't see each other for a long time."

Hearing this, Feng Yu Die's hair stood up. Ye Anping asked her to say goodbye to Sister Pei. Did that mean that Ye Anping had finally agreed to her and Sister Pei being together?

Instantly she became happy, stood up, and headed out. "Okay! Hehe..."

Watching her walk away, Xiao Yunluo rubbed her fingers with some reluctance. She felt that Ye Anping was too ruthless. He was so good to her last night, but he drove her back to the Black Star Sect when she woke up.

"Anping... What if I stayed in the Hundred Lotus Sect to be with you?"

"The Hundred Lotus Sect doesn't have an adequate Spiritual Gathering Array for you to form the core."

Ye Anping looked at Xiao Yunluo's reluctant look and sighed helplessly as he gently held her face. "Yunluo, I said I will be responsible for you, and I will definitely do it. But being responsible for you does not mean keeping you by my side all the time. If you stay in the Hundred Lotus Sect, it will do you no good. Go back to the Black Star Sect to complete the Core Formation stage. I will come to you after that."

"...Fine."

Xiao Yunluo nodded with a red face, grabbed his hand, stood up, and kissed him.

Mwah~~

Feng Yu Die, who was just walking out the door, suddenly heard a sound from behind. She stopped, looked back, and saw the two kissing.

For some reason, her heart felt a little depressed again, and the joy that Ye Anping had just asked her to find Sister Pei was wiped out by this stuffy feeling.

Pouting, she covered her chest and didn't bother to look at them anymore. She walked down the stairs alone, waiting for Xiao Yunluo.

Not long after, Xiao Yunluo was also sent out by Ye Anping.

She walked to Feng Yu Die and frowned. "Second idiot! You are not allowed to tell Lianxue about what happened before."

"Oh..."

Feng Yu Die glanced at her and suddenly raised her eyebrows. Stretching out her hand, she pursed her lips, saying, "Hush money!!"

?

Xiao Yunluo's eyes twitched a little. "How much?"

Feng Yu Die frowned. "One hundred thousand!!"

"What?!" Xiao Yunluo thought she had heard it wrong and looked at her in disbelief. "How much?!"

"Hmph! One hundred thousand. If you don't give it to me, I'll go tell Sister Pei right now."

Feng Yu Die crossed her arms and turned her head away, summoned her flying sword, and pretended to go find Pei Lianxue.

Seeing this, Xiao Yunluo was scared and quickly grabbed her shoulder. "Second idiot, you..."

"One hundred thousand! No bargaining! Hmph~"

Xiao Yunluo felt a little pain. It wasn't that she could not take out one hundred thousand spirit stones, but...

She pursed her lips and finally nodded in agreement. "...I'll give it to you when we get back to the Black Star Sect. Just don't tell Lianxue."

Seeing that Xiao Yunluo agreed, Feng Yu Die's chest no longer felt stuffy. Young Master Ye helped her gain another one hundred thousand spirit stones. She grinned. "It's a deal! Hehe..."

"...Let's go back."

With that, they summoned their flying swords and flew back to the Hundred Lotus Sect's Main Peak.

Standing at the gate of the pavilion, watching the two people talking about the hush money outside, Ye Anping sighed helplessly, then stopped thinking about it. He went back upstairs and wrote the replies to Li Longling and Yun Yiyi's letters, sent them to the post office of the Hundred Lotus Sect, and asked someone to deliver them.

At sunset, Xiao Yunluo, Feng Yu Die, and the others boarded the divine boat borrowed from the Justice Division again.

Ye Anping and Pei Lianxue stood on the high platform above the Main Peak and cupped their hands in salute, watching the flying boat sail away in the afterglow of the setting sun.

After the boat flew up to the clouds and disappeared, Ye Anping breathed a sigh of relief and slowly turned his head to look at Pei Lianxue, who was holding his hand. "Sister."

"Hmm..."

"Pack up, I'll take you back to see your parents and then send you to the Black Star Sect to prepare for the Core Formation stage."

Pei Lianxue narrowed her eyes and nodded, leaning her head on Ye Anping's shoulder. "Alright."
