125: Qianyou, don't bite.

"You met Susu?"

Chen Qingxuan was greatly shocked.

Upon meeting his Beloved Disciple's resentful gaze, he immediately felt that something was wrong. "It's not that, Qian You... what did she say to you?"

"What do you think?"

Ji Qianyou folded her small arms and raised her face to look at Chen Qingxuan.

*Gulp~*

Chen Qingxuan guiltily rubbed his nose.

The next moment, he forced a smile and said, "Haha... she surely wouldn't have shown you a sound-image stone... you definitely didn't see it, right?"

A sound-image stone?

Ji Qianyou's expression shifted. "I saw it!"

"What?"

Chen Qingxuan's brain buzzed.

The next second, he scooped up the Little Girl and ran to a corner. "She really showed it to you? How much did you see... why would she show you that kind of thing?"

"..."

Ji Qianyou stared straight at Chen Qingxuan without saying a word.

In reality, she had never even seen a sound-image stone before; if Chen Qingxuan hadn't asked, she wouldn't have known such a thing existed.

However, from Chen Qingxuan's reaction, she understood that the sound-image stone must be very special.

Thus, Ji Qianyou had a sudden flash of inspiration and said, "I watched the whole thing... I really didn't expect this, Revered Master... you actually did such things behind our backs."

"No, no..."

Chen Qingxuan waved his hands frantically in fear.

At this moment, his guilt had overcome his reason. "If you watched it, you should understand... actually, in the beginning... your Revered Master didn't move at all... she was the one moving."

"And then?"

"And then..." Chen Qingxuan looked troubled. "Men... sometimes their mouths say no... but their bodies are honest."

"Bodies?"

Ji Qianyou's face flickered as she listened.

Although she was deliberately baiting him, with her lack of experience... she naturally couldn't imagine what Chen Qingxuan's so-called sound-image stone had actually recorded.

And from her brief lapse of concentration, Chen Qingxuan discovered something. "Qian You... you didn't see the sound-image stone at all, did you?"

"Hmph!"

Ji Qianyou gave a light huff and didn't deny it.

*Whew—*

Chen Qingxuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The next moment, he irritably poked her forehead. "Outrageous! You even dare to lie to your Revered Master... Qian You, is this how I usually teach you?"

Ji Qianyou puffed out her cheeks. "You lied to me!"

"What did I lie to you about?"

"You said you had no interest in romance... but she said she is your woman!"

"Huh?"

Chen Qingxuan's expression froze.

Faced with this undeniable accusation, he said righteously, "So what? I've worked so hard to Cultivate for so many years, can't I find a Dao Companion to have some fun with?"

Ji Qianyou's pupils shrank slightly. "She really is your woman?"

"What woman this, woman that... if you aren't going to Cultivate properly, why are you worrying about this?" Chen Qingxuan shifted the topic.

"You..."

Ji Qianyou clenched her delicate hands, hesitating to speak.

The next moment, she gritted her teeth and asked, "Then what was that sound-image stone about?"

"Adult business, kids shouldn't ask."

Chen Qingxuan guiltily tried to leave.

But just as he turned around, Ji Qianyou suddenly lunged at him in a fit of pique and bit his arm.

"Ouch, damn it, Qian You... don't, don't, don't... stop biting, Qian You... your Revered Master can't take it."

Chen Qingxuan hissed as he sucked in a breath of cold air from the pain.

As he pushed the Little Girl away, he questioned her irritably, "Why did you bite me?"

"Hmph, who told you to call me a kid... I'm not your daughter!"

Ji Qianyou left in a huff.

"You..."

Chen Qingxuan was speechless.

Watching her departing back, he could only shake his head inwardly. "It's only been a few days since leaving the Demon Emperor Palace... and she's already starting to be rebellious."

And so.

Chen Qingxuan went to find Ji Li to tell her about being bitten.

Ji Li was greatly surprised. "Why did she bite you?"

Chen Qingxuan shook his head. "I don't know, she even asked about my relationship with Susu... she seemed quite angry."

"What?" Ji Li's heart skipped a beat as she guessed, "Could it be that Qian You... saw through the situation between us... and thinks you're a philanderer?"

Chen Qingxuan was stunned. "Impossible. If she had seen through it... she would have caused a scene long ago."

"True." Ji Li breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "Could it be that seeing you with a woman of the Human Race... she's afraid you'll leave the Demon Emperor Palace again one day?"

"That is possible."

Chen Qingxuan agreed wholeheartedly.

Thinking back, after he had completed the contract with Ji Qianyou and left the Demon Emperor Palace, this little disciple had always missed him; she really did like him as her Revered Master.

The next moment, Chen Qingxuan laughed. "It couldn't possibly be that she's jealous, right?"

"Jealous?" Hearing this, Ji Li's smile faded, and she threw a glare at Chen Qingxuan. "What nonsense, how could it be jealousy... impossible."

"Just joking!"

Chen Qingxuan shook his head with a smile and teased, "But speaking of which, you two look exactly the same... sometimes I really can't tell you apart!"

Ji Li stood up and walked over, her delicate hands wrapping around Chen Qingxuan's neck. "Hmph, if you dare to mistake us... then our secret will be out, you know?"

"Of course I know."

Chen Qingxuan shook his head and smiled.

After a moment of intimacy, Chen Qingxuan went to look for Luo Yin and Jiang Susu.

He arrived at the Back Garden.

The situation inside was like a blow to the head for Chen Qingxuan.

He saw a group of girls from the Hundred Flowers Tower being lined up by Jiang Susu to be interrogated one by one in a room.

"You're finally back."

Seeing Chen Qingxuan, Luo Yin felt as if she had caught a literal lifesaver. "Hurry up and go inside to talk some sense into Susu, don't let her keep making a mess."

Chen Qingxuan was completely bewildered. "What's going on?"

Luo Yin said urgently, "Susu is interrogating those girls to see which ones are your women... I heard she's even using the Nine Profound Pupils to verify... she's already identified over a dozen who want to sleep with you... they've all been locked in the room next door waiting to be dealt with."

"What?"

Chen Qingxuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Without time to explain things to Luo Yin, he rushed into the room to interrupt Jiang Susu's judgment.

"Get out, everyone go back to your business."

Chen Qingxuan first dismissed the girls from the Hundred Flowers Tower.

The girls each threw aggrieved looks at Chen Qingxuan and fled as if they had been granted a grand pardon.

Then.

Chen Qingxuan closed the door and looked at Jiang Susu in the room.

"Brother~"

Jiang Susu called out sweetly and ran over to throw herself into Chen Qingxuan's arms.

..."

Chen Qingxuan's face was covered in dark lines.

Seeing her nonchalant attitude, he held Jiang Susu's fragrant shoulders. "Susu, what are you doing?"

"Emm... I didn't do anything wrong, did I?"

Jiang Susu tilted her head.

"Uh..."

Chen Qingxuan hesitated to speak.

The next moment, he forced out a smile. "Susu, these girls are all people who have gone through life and death with me. To put it simply, they are like family to me..."

"You'd better think carefully before you speak."

Jiang Susu's voice turned cold.

Meeting Chen Qingxuan's stunned gaze, the sweet smile on her face gradually turned into a meaningful grin. "Susu is being so obedient... Brother understands when to quit while he's ahead, right?"

*Gulp~*

Caught by that familiar smile, Chen Qingxuan immediately swallowed hard.

How could Chen Qingxuan not understand a smile he was so familiar with... this was simply a blatant threat.

Chen Qingxuan forced a smile. "Haha, it's all Brother's fault for not explaining the situation to you beforehand..."

Before Chen Qingxuan could finish his sentence, a cold light flashed in the depths of Jiang Susu's eyes.

"If Brother says any more, he'll be being quite tactless!"
