116: Chapter 116 I really didn't.

"Nonsense, Holy Lord Xu Yan, I've been wronged!"

Ye Xuan said, feeling extremely helpless.

It wasn't my fault you insisted on hiding under your own bed; Lin Qingzhu isn't a fool, so of course she could tell something was wrong at a glance.

Dressed in a white gown, Holy Lord Xu Yan didn't care whether Ye Xuan was wronged or not. She glared at him fiercely, then gently hugged Lin Qingzhu to comfort her: "Qingzhu, did Ye Xuan bully you? Shall Master help you deal with him?"

"Wuwuwu, Master, I will never fight with you for Grandmaster again!"

After saying this, Lin Qingzhu no longer looked like the cold fairy she usually was; she was now crying with rain-drenched pear blossoms, and ran out in sorrow.

Leaving only Holy Lord Xu Yan and Ye Xuan, staring at each other with wide eyes, the atmosphere incredibly awkward.

"This is a huge misunderstanding. If I had told you earlier, Holy Lord Xu Yan, wouldn't it have been better to just tell Qingzhu earlier?"

Ye Xuan held his head with one hand and gave Holy Lord Xu Yan an unfriendly look. Who knew she would glare back fiercely: "Humph, what are you looking at? Pretty Boy, isn't it because you were hiding under the bed, blinded by lust, that you made me get exposed?"

"I'll go explain it to Qingzhu, Holy Lord Xu Yan, you shouldn't go." Ye Xuan helplessly hurried in the direction Lin Qingzhu had left.

Watching Ye Xuan leave, Holy Lord Xu Yan stomped her small foot in coquettish anger and sighed before returning to her bedchamber: "Humph, they say only women are the source of disaster, but that detestable Pretty Boy, I think it's you! And to think Qingzhu actually calls this Pretty Boy Grandmaster?!"

Thinking of this, a flush of red appeared on Holy Lord Xu Yan's face again.

Now, because the source of her Zixiao Divine Physique was slowly being restored, her cultivation had reached the eighth level of the Huangxuan Realm. With one more step, she could attempt to break through to the Saint Realm!

On the other side, on Sword Immortal Peak, the bored Qingluan put down the wooden sword in her hand and dangled her petite, exquisite feet in the pond.

"Is Pretty Boy Senior Brother not coming back yet? We clearly agreed that whenever he had time, he would take me to Cangjian Peak."

"Holy Lord Xu Yan, Junior Martial Niece Qingzhu, they wouldn't... they wouldn't, absolutely not!"

Qingluan's heart could not calm down while practicing swordsmanship, so she simply stopped. Her master had told her before that as long as she practiced diligently, one day her Supreme Sword Immortal Body would awaken, and her cultivation would skyrocket until she surpassed her Senior Brother.

Humph, Senior Brother always bullies me. Once my cultivation improves, I will definitely take revenge.

"Qingzhu, are you in the room? Is it convenient for Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan to come in?"

Ye Xuan followed Lin Qingzhu all the way to her boudoir, but just as he wanted to enter, the door was shut on him.

"Qingzhu isn't here, Grandmaster, please go back."

A voice with a sobbing tone came from the room; Lin Qingzhu seemed to have lost the most important person in the world.

"Open the door quickly, Qingzhu, I have something to tell you." Ye Xuan knocked on the door again, smiling bitterly: "It's really important, please open the door."

Inside the room, Lin Qingzhu heard Ye Xuan's voice, and only then, amidst hesitation and struggle, did she use her Mystic Power to open the restriction on the door.

"Creak—"

Ye Xuan gently pushed open the door. Looking inside, the furnishings were cold and sparse, decorated entirely in white, while Lin Qingzhu had curled up in the corner of the bed, her face red from crying.

"What is this? Has there been a change?"

[Name: Lin Qingzhu]

[Realm: Late Stage of the Eighth Level of the Earth Profound Realm]

[Physique: Nine Profound Exquisite Physique (Gold), Ice Heart Glazed Physique (Gold), Top-tier Cauldron (Gold)]

[Luck: Saint's Bearing (Purple), Love at First Sight (Gold), False Alarm (White)]

[Destiny: "My Beautiful Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan" (Protagonist), "life modification without regret" (Supporting Character), "Evil God" (Supporting Character), "Alchemy Emperor" (Supporting Character)]

[Favorability: 98]

[Life Destiny: Born in the secular Great Qin Dynasty, in the Lin family of Qingshan County. Gifted from a young age, at five, she was taken back to the Cangqiong Holy Land by a traveling elder to practice.]

[At ten, she broke through to the True Profound Realm; at fifteen, she broke through to the Spirit Profound Realm; at sixteen, she broke through to the Earth Profound Realm and was taken as a disciple by Holy Lord Xu Yan.]

[Yesterday, her cultivation broke through to the ninth level of the Earth Profound Realm. Today, she happily came to find her master, Holy Lord Xu Yan, only to see her beloved Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan holding his waist as he walked out of her master's boudoir. In her sorrow, she said she would no longer disturb Grandmaster Ye Xuan.]

[One day later, her younger sister, Lin Qingxue, for her own selfish desires, tricked her into a place set up by Third Saint Son Zhao Long...]

"Hehe, so there's an extra white luck, is younger sister Lin Qingxue going to start causing trouble again? This is interesting."

A cold glint flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes. As a biological younger sister, she doesn't help her own elder sister, but insists on helping a shameless scoundrel.

Lin Qingzhu, this girl, looks very cold, but she values family affection immensely, so dealing with Lin Qingxue will be troublesome. In that case, I'll use that kid Yun Zhe to help.

Anyway, Yun Zhe has taken the blame before, it's not the first time or second, one more time won't hurt.

"Wuwuwu... Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, Qingzhu doesn't want to separate from you. Can you please not hide from me in the future... I don't want you, Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, to become my Grandmaster..."

Seeing Ye Xuan enter, Lin Qingzhu, who had been keeping her distance from him, instantly cried even harder.

"And you call yourself a fairy, what a little fool."

Hearing this, Ye Xuan's face darkened. He walked over to Lin Qingzhu, gently hugged her with his hands, and comforted her: "You, you're a grown woman now, why are you still crying?"

"The reason I walked out of Holy Lord Xu Yan's room is because Holy Lord Xu Yan needed the power of my Purple Heaven Divine Thunder to complete her Zixiao Divine Physique, so of course I had to walk out of her room."

"As for why I didn't tell you before, it's because Holy Lord Xu Yan didn't want you, Qingzhu, to see her bringing a man back to her bedchamber."

Ye Xuan gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Lin Qingzhu's eyes, pinched her small face hard with both hands, and looked at her with a calm gaze: "This is all your master's fault!"

"Really? Then you must not have... done that... Also, you are not allowed to speak ill of Master, even if you are Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan!"

In an instant, Lin Qingzhu returned to her usual state, blushing as she glared at Ye Xuan.

"What 'that'? What are you talking about?" Ye Xuan intentionally pretended not to know anything.

"It's... dual cultivation..."

Lin Qingzhu was extremely shy, but suddenly remembered something and said: "That's not right, then Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, why were you holding your waist when you walked out of Master's boudoir?"

"What on earth is going on in that little head of yours? Don't you know what kind of person Holy Lord Xu Yan is? Also, do you really trust your Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan so little?"

Lin Qingzhu's words were astonishing, giving Ye Xuan a headache, and he pinched her soft little face hard again.

"Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, can you be gentler? You'll pinch it until it breaks." Lin Qingzhu looked at Ye Xuan weakly.

"Let's see if you dare to let your imagination run wild again. Dual cultivation? You don't even look at how high your master's cultivation is. If we really dual cultivated, would I still be able to stand here and talk to you?"

Listening to Ye Xuan's nonsense, Lin Qingzhu said with a blushing face: "Hehe, it's good that you didn't! Actually, if Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan wants to, you can find Qingzhu too."

After saying this, Lin Qingzhu completely buried her little head into Ye Xuan's broad chest.

Anyway, as long as Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan wants to, she is willing to do it.
