85: Chapter 85 Becoming a Little Eunuch in the Imperial Dynasty

"That rebellious disciple wouldn't have actually been drained dry by Holy Lord Xu Yan, would he?" Beneath Master Shen Xi's hazy, celestial face, there was worry.

"Strange, why would I care about this Pretty Boy?"

Master Shen Xi was dazed for a moment, cleared her thoughts, and out of concern for Ye Xuan, she used her divine sense to probe the Holy Lord's main hall outside Sword Immortal Peak.

"Master Shen Xi, stop using your divine sense to look at my place; I've already personally brought Junior Brother back."

Before Master Shen Xi could speak, Holy Lord Xu Yan had already arrived at Sword Immortal Peak, carrying a limp Ye Xuan.

His pale complexion only added to Ye Xuan's peerless face; a grown man actually had a touch of feminine delicacy at this moment.

"Master, this disciple almost never got to see you again!" Ye Xuan's pupils dimmed slightly.

"Holy Lord Xu Yan, don't you know how to exercise some restraint? What happened to my disciple?"

Master Shen Xi's celestial image rippled slightly. Looking at Ye Xuan's ghastly pale complexion, the aura around her almost erupted against Holy Lord Xu Yan.

"Um... Holy Lord sister, are we acting a bit too much?"

Ye Xuan was terrified and transmitted his voice to Holy Lord Xu Yan behind him.

"Uh... it shouldn't be, after all, my relationship with Master Shen Xi has always been quite good." Holy Lord Xu Yan also said with uncertainty.

"Holy Lord Xu Yan, hurry up and put down my rebellious disciple!"

Master Shen Xi anxiously snatched Ye Xuan from Luo Li's arms, held him in her own arms, and channeled Saint-level Mystic Power into Ye Xuan's body, only to find... nothing was wrong at all; on the contrary, he was even stronger than before he left.

"Hehehe, Master, you didn't expect this, did you! This disciple is perfectly fine!" Ye Xuan, leaning in Master Shen Xi's arms, opened his cunning eyes and saw his master's peerless celestial face again. He couldn't help but be dazed for a moment, but still couldn't resist teasing, "As expected, Master is still the most beautiful!"

Feeling his master's warm embrace, Ye Xuan couldn't help but nuzzle a few times, wishing he could stay in this moment forever.

"Master, you smell so good!"

"Pretty Boy! You are presumptuous... to actually conspire with Holy Lord Xu Yan to deceive your master!" There was a trace of anger in Master Shen Xi's cold voice. She immediately raised her left hand, making a move to teach this rebellious disciple a lesson, but as soon as she saw Ye Xuan's clear eyes, she finally held back the urge to lash out.

Seeing this, Holy Lord Xu Yan muttered unhappily, "Hmph, you told me the Holy Lord sister was the most beautiful, and now it's become your master. A man's mouth is a lying ghost!"

"Bang—"

Although the major punishment was avoided, the minor one could not be escaped. A ripple appeared beneath Master Shen Xi's celestial face, and she struck out with a backhand palm, instantly sending Ye Xuan flying into the Immortal Lake.

Ye Xuan, intoxicated by Master Shen Xi's warm embrace, hadn't even had time to react before he was sent flying. Although the Immortal Lake served as a buffer, it still hurt a lot.

"Master, how could you treat your disciple like this?"

Ye Xuan spat out the lake water, circulated his Mystic Power, and returned to the shore in just a few minutes. Looking at Little Moon, Qingluan, and Master Shen Xi, his eyes were full of resentment.

"Humph, humph, humph, when we came, Senior Sister already told you not to deceive Master Shen Xi, but you insisted... Now your master is completely angry, go figure out a way to solve it yourself!" Holy Lord Xu Yan also reacted very quickly, immediately throwing the problem aside and turning around to leave Sword Immortal Peak.

Holy Lord Xu Yan was afraid that if she left any later, she might be completely stuck here and unable to leave.

"Little Moon, Master is angry, what should I do?"

Ye Xuan was dumbfounded. Clearly, the two of them were accomplices, but now this Holy Lord sister was being heartless and just dropped everything and ran...

Master is only twenty-seven years old this year, in the prime of her peerless youth.

"Hmm... Qingluan doesn't know either; I've never seen Master angry before."

Little Moon's clear pupils were full of innocence, proving that she was not lying.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

"Master, can this disciple enter your room?"

Ye Xuan thought left and right and decided to go coax his master. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and knock on the spirit door of the pavilion belonging to Master Shen Xi.

He waited for a long time without hearing any response.

"Master, since you aren't speaking, this disciple will take it as your consent. I'm coming in!"

Ye Xuan pushed open the pavilion's spirit door on tiptoe, and then, looking up, he saw the back of Master Shen Xi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed.

Her peerless celestial face was revealed at this moment; her three thousand strands of dark hair were plain and unbound, and she wore a long white dress. The sense of holiness around her made one feel waves of astonishment.

Master Shen Xi seemed to notice Ye Xuan's arrival, and the temperature in the air dropped by several degrees. The bone-chilling cold made Ye Xuan shiver, and his body trembled several times.

"Master, just now it was all this disciple's fault. Why don't you beat this disciple again to vent your anger, okay?"

Ye Xuan put on an innocent expression and came behind Master Shen Xi, his voice faintly containing a hint of testing.

"Rebellious disciple, go cultivate. Your master is not that petty." Master Shen Xi's voice remained cold, making it impossible to hear any signs of anger. Only in the pavilion could she show her true celestial grace.

Hearing this, Ye Xuan smiled happily: "Mm, mm, mm, Master is the best. I knew Master wouldn't be angry!"

However, his smile quickly disappeared, because Ye Xuan found that the cold aura on his master had actually become much heavier, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Master, why don't you scold me instead? That would make this disciple feel better, or you could just beat me to vent your anger."

Ye Xuan hurriedly spoke again, thick-skinned, and turned straight to the front of Master Shen Xi. Looking at her peerless celestial face that was enough to make the whole world obsessed, he just stared and giggled.

"What are you giggling at? Do you want your master to beat you that much?" Master Shen Xi opened her closed beautiful eyes and looked at Ye Xuan with a half-smile: "Remember what you said today, and also, rebellious disciple, if you don't want your eyes anymore, remember to look more."

In just an instant, the coldness that permeated the entire pavilion instantly dissipated.

"Um, Master, why don't you lie down, and let this disciple help you massage your legs?"

Ye Xuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the corners of his mouth secretly turning up, and then he pressed his advantage, his smile very bright.

"Oh? Pretty Boy, do you think your master is easy to talk to?" The expression beneath Master Shen Xi's beautiful eyes became brighter, and she glared at Ye Xuan fiercely: "Massage my legs? Do you think I can't see through your thoughts?"

"Hehehe, isn't that to atone for my crimes and seek credit?" Ye Xuan smiled, and seeing Master Shen Xi's unreadable expression, he hurriedly withdrew his gaze.

"Besides, Master is so good-looking, won't you allow this disciple to take a few more looks?"

"Pretty Boy, stop being glib. If you say such outrageous things to your master again in the future, I will personally turn you into a eunuch of a mortal dynasty!"

Master Shen Xi's mouth turned up, and the smile in her beautiful eyes grew heavier. These words made Ye Xuan instantly obedient, his body trembling, and he bowed his head, no longer daring to look directly at his master's celestial face.
