Chapter 153 Being a kept man is also a skill

Yeer...

Leng Yueli raised her head, her fingers gently brushing across Su Ye's cheek, her eyes hazy.

For these three hundred years, Revered Master has never been as happy as today.

Seeing you protecting Purple Bamboo Peak on the stage...

At that moment, Revered Master felt that even being enemies with the whole world for you would be worth it.

Su Ye's heart stirred.

He lowered his head, looking into those eyes filled with deep affection, his voice hoarse.

Revered Master, there is no need for you to be enemies with the whole world.

Because I will stand in front of you.

Whoever dares to touch you, I will kill them.

No grand words.

Only the most simple and honest promise.

Leng Yueli's heart completely melted.

She took the initiative to hook her arms around Su Ye's neck, her red lips slightly parted, exhaling like an orchid.

Then...

Right now, how do you want to kill?

Su Ye smiled.

He smiled quite mischievously.

Naturally, it is... to kill until the armor is discarded and the troops are routed.

As the words fell.

He leaned down and kissed those alluring red lips.

All restraint, all majesty, were thrown to the back of his mind at this moment.

The moon seemed shy too, quietly hiding behind the clouds.

The water in the hot spring began to ripple.

Ten thousand words omitted here.

...

I don't know how much time passed.

The clouds dispersed, the rain stopped.

Leng Yueli, as if drained of all strength, lay lazily on Su Ye's chest, her fingers unconsciously drawing circles.

The flush on her face had not yet faded, and her hair was messy, adding a touch of charm.

You wretch...

She murmured softly, her voice carrying a sexiness after hoarseness.

Are you trying to exhaust Revered Master to death?

Su Ye gently stroked her smooth back, looking satisfied.

How would this Disciple dare.

Isn't this just helping Revered Master clear your Meridians since your cultivation was stuck at a Bottleneck?

Sophistry.

Leng Yueli playfully slapped him, but she couldn't bear to leave that warm embrace.

By the way.

She seemed to remember something and looked up at Su Ye.

In a few days, an ancient Secret Realm will open.

It is called the 'Azure Dragon Ancient Tomb'.

There are countless Opportunities inside, but it is also fraught with danger.

Su Ye raised an eyebrow, Revered Master wants me to go?

Yes.

Leng Yueli nodded, Although you have many methods, your cultivation is, after all, still a weakness.

This Secret Realm restricts bone age to under thirty.

It is a good Opportunity for your Breakthrough.

Speaking of this, she paused, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.

However, Taiqing Peak will certainly send people as well.

And, I'm afraid it won't just be Taiqing Peak.

Other Holy Lands and Demonic Sects will also have Prodigies heading there.

You must be careful while taking those three girls with you.

Su Ye was thoughtful.

Azure Dragon Ancient Tomb?

It seems there really was this plot in the original text.

It was originally an important dungeon for the male lead, Long Aotian, to show off and build his harem.

But now...

Since he has arrived, this Opportunity naturally belongs to Su.

Don't worry, Revered Master.

A glint flashed in Su Ye's eyes, That kind of place is most suitable for a 'soft-rice eater' like me to shine.

Besides...

He lowered his head and whispered in Leng Yueli's ear.

If I can find any treasures for Dual Cultivation, it will be good to honor Revered Master with them when I return.

Leng Yueli blushed and pinched him hard.

You have no seriousness!

Hurry back, lest those three girls wake up in the middle of the night and can't find you.

Although she said that, her hand was gripping Su Ye's lapel, showing no intention of letting go.

Su Ye smiled.

He didn't rush to leave.

Instead, he stayed and chatted with her for a long while, until the sky turned white, before leaving reluctantly.

...

Returning to his residence.

As soon as Su Ye pushed open the door, he felt the atmosphere was wrong.

The room was not lit.

It was pitch black.

But he could feel that in the darkness, three pairs of eyes were staring at him.

Click.

A night-luminescent pearl lit up.

He saw Jiang Wanyin, Lin Qingzhu, and Qin Yurou sitting neatly on his bed.

An interrogation stance.

Senior Brother, where did you go?

Jiang Wanyin toyed with the folding fan in her hand, smiling yet not smiling.

Coming back so late, and you still smell like... a scent.

Lin Qingzhu twitched her nose, her brow slightly furrowed.

It's like... the scent of violets.

That was the incense Revered Master liked the most.

Su Ye's heart tightened.

These three girls have noses sharper than dogs!

Ahem.

Su Ye kept his composure, his heart not racing, and closed the door calmly.

I went to the back mountain to practice.

Practice?

Qin Yurou tilted her head, looking innocent, What kind of practice has a scent? I want to practice too.

I was practicing... 'Proving the Dao in a Dream'.

Su Ye spoke nonsense with a straight face, As for the scent, I must have gotten it from passing through a flower patch.

Is that so?

Jiang Wanyin clearly didn't believe it; she stood up and approached Su Ye step by step.

Until she forced him into a corner.

One hand propped against the wall.

Kabedon.

Senior Brother, you wouldn't be going behind our backs...

To find some other vixen, would you?

Her eyes were filled with danger.

Su Ye swallowed.

These days, having Junior Sisters who are too smart is not easy to manage.

Second Junior Sister, you are overthinking it.

Su Ye raised both hands in surrender, In this Purple Bamboo Peak, besides the three of you, where are there any other women?

That's not necessarily true.

Jiang Wanyin leaned into his ear and blew a puff of air gently.

After all...

That cold old woman is always there.

Su Ye's pupils contracted.

Old woman?

You mean Revered Master?

If Leng Yueli heard this, you would likely be hung up and beaten.

Second Martial Sister, watch your words.

Lin Qingzhu said coldly, Do not speak ill of Revered Master.

Although she didn't like the Revered Master who always monopolized Senior Brother's time, the rules of respecting the Revered Master were still there.

Tsk, boring.

Jiang Wanyin withdrew her hand and turned to sit back on the bed, Anyway, Senior Brother is ours.

No one can snatch him away.

If anyone dares to snatch him...

A mass of Red Lotus Karma Fire suddenly appeared in her hand, her smile bewitching.

I will burn her.

Su Ye wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Where is this a harem?

This is clearly a crematorium!

Alright, alright.

Su Ye quickly changed the subject, Let me tell you some good news.

In a few days, we are going to the Azure Dragon Ancient Tomb.

What?!

The three women raised their heads simultaneously, their eyes lighting up.

Not because of the Secret Realm.

But because...

That means, we are going on a long trip with Senior Brother?

A publicly funded trip?

Does that mean we can eat delicious food along the way?

Su Ye nodded.

That's right.

However...

He looked at these three eager Junior Sisters, and a sudden ominous premonition arose in his heart.

This journey.

I'm afraid it won't be peaceful.

Old Cow... ah no, my Junior Sisters.

Su Ye imitated Chen Xun's tone and said earnestly.

When we are out, safety comes first.

At that time, don't just focus on bickering, making others laugh at us.

Don't worry, Senior Brother!

Qin Yurou patted her chest and guaranteed, Whoever dares to laugh at us, I will flatten them!

If anyone dares to seduce Senior Brother...

A cold light flashed in Lin Qingzhu's eyes, and her autumn water sword unsheathed half an inch.

Slash.

Su Ye looked at this murderous trio.

Silently, he mourned for three seconds for the passersby he was about to encounter, and that so-called original male lead.

This world.

Wanting to eat soft rice is not easy either.

Early morning.

Purple Bamboo Peak, Bamboo Forest Cottage.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, dappling Su Ye's face.

Hoo...

Su Ye stretched, his joints popping.

This sleep was not peaceful.

The dream was full of Shura fields.

On the left was Revered Master with a whip, on the right was Second Junior Sister with a candle, Third Junior Sister sharpening her sword, and the Little Junior Sister... eating watermelon on the side.

This life, I can't live it.

Su Ye sighed and rolled off the bed.

He pushed open the door.

Fresh air rushed in, mixed with the faint scent of bamboo.

In the courtyard, the three Junior Sisters were already ready to go.

Not the usual training clothes.

But changed into tight outfits convenient for travel.

Jiang Wanyin was in a fire-red tight long dress, outlining breathtaking curves, with a golden ribbon tied around her waist, making her waist appear even more slender.

Lin Qingzhu was still in plain white, but the skirt was slightly shorter, revealing a section of jade-like calves, wearing cloud boots, looking heroic and spirited.

As for Qin Yurou.

This girl was carrying a huge package.

Taller than her.

It was bulging, and without looking, one knew it was all food.

Senior Brother, good morning!

Qin Yurou poked her head out from behind the package, smiling until her eyes narrowed.

Morning.

Su Ye walked over and reached out to weigh the package.

Good heavens.

It's heavy as lead.

Are you going on an adventure, or for a picnic?

Both.

Qin Yurou said righteously, If I don't eat enough, how will I have the strength to fight? If I don't have the strength to fight, how can I protect Senior Brother?

Makes sense.

Su Ye was speechless.

Just then.

A stream of light sped over from the foot of the mountain.

Peak Revered Master Su! Peak Revered Master Su, wait!

The person coming was a middle-aged fat man, wearing a deacon's uniform, sweating profusely; it was Sun Changhai, who had delivered gifts before.

After landing, he didn't bother to wipe his sweat and took out a Storage Pouch from his arms.

He offered it with both hands.

His waist bent ninety degrees.

Peak Revered Master Su, this is the compensation sent from Taiqing Peak.

Five thousand Spirit Stones, not a single one less.

Also...

Sun Changhai looked around cautiously and lowered his voice, Peak Revered Master Li also asked me to bring a message, saying... mountains and rivers will meet again.

Oh?

Su Ye took the Storage Pouch and scanned it with his Divine Sense.

The number was correct.

A playful arc curled at the corner of his mouth, Mountains and rivers will meet again? Is he threatening me?

No, no, no!

Sun Changhai was so scared that his legs went weak, and he almost knelt down, This little one is just delivering a message, absolutely no such intention!

The current Purple Bamboo Peak is no longer the soft persimmon that could be kneaded by anyone.

Even Wang Teng was slapped into the dirt.

Who dares to provoke him?

Alright, I'm just teasing you.

Su Ye casually tossed him a few Spirit Stones, Hardship fee, take it to buy tea.

Thank you, Peak Revered Master Su! Thank you, Peak Revered Master Su!

Sun Changhai was like receiving an amnesty, grabbing the Spirit Stones, and scrambled away.

He was afraid that if he were a step late, he would be kept by this group of evil stars from Purple Bamboo Peak as fertilizer.

Five thousand Spirit Stones...

Su Ye weighed the Storage Pouch in his hand, his mood greatly improved.

Is this the joy of eating soft rice hard?

As long as your fists are hard, everything is hard currency wherever you go.

Senior Brother, are we leaving now?

Jiang Wanyin stepped forward, naturally taking Su Ye's arm, her whole body pressing against him.

Soft.

Bouncy.

Fragrant.

Su Ye's mind wavered, then he looked at his nose and his heart.

Let's go.

Let's go say goodbye to Revered Master.

...

Purple Bamboo Peak Main Hall.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy.

Leng Yueli sat upright in the main seat, still wearing a purple robe, noble and cold.

Only that gaze, when sweeping over Su Ye, clearly carried a trace of tenderness that others could not perceive.

As well as... a warning.

"This trip to the Azure Dragon Ancient Tomb is a long journey."

"Follow your Senior Brother's arrangements in everything."

"Do not act on your own and cause trouble."

Leng Yueli's voice was cold and clear, echoing in the main hall.

"Yes, Revered Master!"

The three women replied in unison.

"Yeer."

Leng Yueli's gaze fell on Su Ye.

"Disciple is here."

Su Ye stepped forward and bowed.

The two's gazes met in the air.

To others, it looked like deep affection between Revered Master and Disciple, with earnest instructions.

In reality—

Leng Yueli sent a voice transmission: "Keep an eye on those girls along the way, don't let them get cheated by others."

Su Ye sent a voice transmission: "Don't worry, Revered Master. Besides me, who could cheat them?"

Leng Yueli sent a voice transmission: "Also, do not flirt with others outside."

Su Ye sent a voice transmission: "Disciple only has Revered Master in his heart."

Leng Yueli sent a voice transmission: "Hmph, glib-tongued. If I smell another woman on you when you return... you can think of the consequences yourself."

Su Ye felt a chill down his spine.

This was no farewell.

This was clearly a warning of a suspended death sentence!

"Disciple... will keep the teachings in mind."

Su Ye raised his head, looking upright and righteous.

"Go."

Leng Yueli waved her hand.

It seemed impatient.

But the moment Su Ye turned around, a faint stream of light quietly slipped into his sleeve.

It was a jade talisman.

Engraved with complex array patterns, it radiated the aura of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm powerhouse.

A protective talisman.

It was also a positioning talisman.

As long as Su Ye crushed it, even if they were thousands of miles apart, Leng Yueli could instantly sense it, and even tear through the void to arrive.

Su Ye touched his sleeve.

His heart warmed.

This soft rice, it really tastes good.

At the foot of Purple Bamboo Peak.

A huge flying boat hovered in mid-air.

It was not the standard flying boat issued by the Sect, but a pleasure boat made entirely of purple nanmu wood, carved with beams and painted rafters, extremely luxurious.

That's right.

It was a pleasure boat.

This was something Su Ye had spent a large amount of money to have an Elder from the Artifact Refining Peak specially customize.

Named "Xiaoyao".

"Wow! So beautiful!"

Qin Yurou's eyes straightened, and she threw down her luggage and rushed up, "Senior Brother, is there a kitchen inside?"

"Yes."

Su Ye stepped onto the deck, "Not only is there a kitchen, but there are also hot springs, soft couches, and even a terrace for enjoying the scenery."

"This..."

Lin Qingzhu looked at this flying boat full of "corrupt" atmosphere, her brows furrowed slightly, "Senior Brother, we are going for training, is this too... flashy?"

Cultivators value bitter cultivation.

Going on a pleasure boat for the whole journey, those who didn't know would think it was some spoiled young Revered Master out for sightseeing.

"Third Junior Sister, that is where you are wrong."

Su Ye shook his head, earnest and well-meaning, "What is the purpose of cultivation?"

"For longevity, for the Dao." Lin Qingzhu replied without hesitation.

"Wrong."

Su Ye extended a finger and shook it.

"Cultivation is to live more comfortably."

"If we have cultivated to longevity, but still have to sleep in the open and eat chaff, then what is the point of this cultivation?"

Lin Qingzhu was stunned.

These words sounded very reasonable, yet she felt something was wrong.

"Senior Brother is right!"

Jiang Wanyin was already lying on a soft couch covered with tiger skin, holding a cup of spirit wine in her hand, squinting her eyes comfortably.

"Life is short, one must enjoy it while they can."

"Third Junior Sister, don't be so tense, come over and lie down for a while."

Lin Qingzhu hesitated for a moment.

In the end, she couldn't resist the temptation of the soft couch.

"Only this once, not to be repeated."

She held her sword, and although she sat down, her back remained straight.

Su Ye smiled.

He walked to the bow of the boat and injected a stream of spiritual power into the control core.

"Xiaoyao, set sail!"

Boom—

The flying boat vibrated, turned into a purple light, and shot into the sky.

Target, Azure Dragon Ancient Tomb.

Three days later.

The flying boat traveled above the sea of clouds.

These three days.

Su Ye had lived quite... fully.

"Senior Brother, this spirit fruit skin is so hard to peel, help me peel it~"

"Senior Brother, I don't understand this sword technique, will you teach me hand-in-hand?"

"Senior Brother, I'm hungry! I want to eat braised pork! Now! Immediately!"

Su Ye felt like he wasn't a Cultivator.

He was like a nanny.

At this moment.

He was lying on a lounge chair on the deck, with an ancient book covering his face, trying to play dead.

"Su Ye."

A cold voice rang in his ear.

Lin Qingzhu.

Su Ye didn't Move, "Asleep, do not disturb."

Lin Qingzhu was silent for a moment, "Three hundred miles ahead, there is a smell of blood."

Su Ye suddenly lifted the book and sat up.

"Smell of blood?"

He looked at Lin Qingzhu.

This Third Junior Sister practiced the Listening Rain Sword Intent, her senses were the sharpest.

"Mm."

Lin Qingzhu nodded, her expression serious, "Very strong, and... there is Demonic Qi."

"Looks like there is trouble."

Su Ye stood up and walked to the bow.

Looking into the distance.

He saw that in the clouds ahead, black energy was vaguely rolling.

A group of huge black shadows were besieging a small flying boat.

"It's Black Feather Eagles."

Jiang Wanyin had walked over at some point, waving a round fan, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes, "Adult Black Feather Eagles are Golden Core Stage Yao Beasts, and this group... there must be a dozen of them."

"The people on that flying boat are dead for sure."

In the cultivation world, the weak are prey to the strong.

Things like this happen every day.

Su Ye didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

After all, his current principle is: develop in low profile, eat soft rice hard.

But when he saw the flag on the besieged flying boat, his eyes narrowed slightly.

It was a blue flag.

Embroidered with a blooming snow lotus.

"This is... the mark of the Heavenly Water Pavilion?"

Su Ye vaguely remembered.

Although Heavenly Water Pavilion was only a second-rate Sect, it produced a type of Medicinal Pill called "Beauty Preserving Pill".

Revered Master Leng Yueli, although naturally beautiful, was also extremely concerned about maintenance.

If he could save these people and get some top-quality Beauty Preserving Pills to honor his Revered Master...

This wave would not be a loss.

"Save them."

Su Ye spat out two words lightly.

"Alright!"

Jiang Wanyin had been itching for a fight.

Before Su Ye gave the order, she had already turned into a red light and rushed out.

"Evil beasts! Stop being rampant!"

Boom!

The sky was filled with flames, blooming like a lotus.

On the Heavenly Water Pavilion's flying boat.

It was already full of despair.

A dozen Black Feather Eagles were frantically attacking the defensive shield.

The shield was crumbling, its light dim.

"Elder, are... are we going to die?"

A young female Cultivator who was only at the Qi Refining Stage hid in the corner, shivering, crying like rain.

"Don't be afraid."

An old woman at the Peak of Foundation Establishment, holding a cane, although her face was pale, her eyes remained firm.

"Even if I die, I will protect you."

Although she said so.

She knew clearly in her heart.

Facing so many Golden Core Stage Yao Beasts, their meager cultivation was simply not enough.

Crack—

A crisp sound.

The shield broke.

A huge Black Feather Eagle let out a piercing shriek, its sharp claws heading straight for the young female Cultivator.

"No—"

The old woman's eyes split with rage, wanting to rescue, but she was entangled by two other beasts.

Seeing that the young female Cultivator was about to die on the spot.

Just at this moment.

The sky suddenly turned red.

A huge flame lotus exploded in mid-air.

"Screech—"

That Black Feather Eagle that was swooping down didn't even have time to scream, and was instantly burned to ashes.

Immediately after.

A cold sword light, like a long rainbow piercing the sun, instantly pierced the heads of three beasts.

"This is..."

The old woman was stunned.

The survivors were also stunned.

They saw two beautiful figures, one red and one white, like Heavenly Gods descending to the mortal world, blocking in front of them.

"Purple Bamboo Peak is handling business, all others stand back."

Jiang Wanyin looked back and smiled, charming all living things.

Flames rolled in her hands, turning into a fire dragon, roaring into the beast herd.

Lin Qingzhu was cruel and didn't say much.

The long sword in her hand danced, Sword Qi crisscrossed, and every sword strike meant a beast would fall.

Is this the strength of a Holy Land Disciple?

Simply... terrifying!

A moment later.

The battle ended.

A dozen Golden Core Stage Black Feather Eagles all turned into corpses.

Su Ye drove the "Xiaoyao" and landed slowly.

He was still in a lazy appearance, even holding half a spirit fruit he hadn't finished eating.

"Thank you, Benefactor, for saving our lives!"

The old woman, leading a group of Disciples, knelt on the ground, grateful and tearful.

"A small effort."

Su Ye waved his hand, "These Junior Sisters of mine usually lack practical combat, so they just happened to use these feathered beasts to practice."

Everyone's mouth twitched.

Using Golden Core Stage Yao Beasts to practice?

Is this human language?

"May I ask the Benefactor's name?" The old woman asked respectfully.

"Primordial Origin Holy Land, Purple Bamboo Peak, Su Ye."

Su Ye took a bite of the spirit fruit, "By the way, I heard your Heavenly Water Pavilion's Beauty Preserving Pills are good?"

The old woman was stunned.

Then overjoyed.

This is asking for a reward?

Asking for a reward is good! Not afraid of you asking, just afraid you won't ask!

"Yes! Yes, yes, yes!"

The old woman quickly took out an exquisite jade bottle from her arms, "This is the 'Heavenly Fragrance Beauty Preserving Pill' treasured by our Pavilion, it can keep one's appearance unchanged for five hundred years, and even has the effect of beauty and nourishment!"

"If Benefactor doesn't mind..."

"I don't mind."

Su Ye took the jade bottle, smiling like a flower.

"This thing is just right to take back to coax... ahem, give to the Elder at home."

Done.

The Revered Master's gift is secured.

Soft rice can be eaten a few more times.

After the episode.

The journey continued.

With this battle, the three women's spirits were obviously much higher.

Chattering along the way, discussing who killed more and whose Moves were cooler.

Only Su Ye.

Looking at the Medicinal Pill in the jade bottle, he was thoughtful.

"Senior Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Qin Yurou leaned over and asked curiously.

"I am thinking..."

Su Ye put away the jade bottle, his gaze looking into the distance, "The Azure Dragon Ancient Tomb, I fear it is not that simple."

That group of Black Feather Eagles just now, their eyes were red, obviously being controlled or affected by some kind of violent aura.

Around here.

It is not peaceful.
