Chapter 37 Second Junior Sister of Purple Bamboo Peak
The morning light was just beginning to show.
The first ray of sunlight pierced through the mist of the Purple Bamboo Peak and dappled the window lattice of the Listening to Rain Pavilion.
Inside the room, although the amorous Aura had mostly dissipated, a faint, feminine fragrance still lingered in the air.
Su Ye slowly opened his eyes.
In that instant, a trace of laziness flashed through his eyes, which were originally as deep as an abyss.
He turned his head to the side.
The young girl beside him was sleeping soundly.
Qin Yurou, like a little beast that had finally found a safe harbor after being frightened, curled up entirely in Su Ye's arms.
Her hands were tightly clutching his lapels, as if she were afraid that if she let go, this man would vanish.
Dried tear stains still hung at the corners of her eyes.
That was the mark left behind from the treatment last night.
It was also proof that she had completely fallen for Su Ye.
Su Ye reached out, his fingertips gently sliding across her delicate, jade-like cheek.
A playful curve formed at the corner of his mouth.
85 affection points.
Plus that someone outside the window Shura field drama from last night.
This Nine-Orifice Exquisite Heart was now completely in his grasp.
Mmm...
Seemingly sensing the touch on her face, Qin Yurou let out a soft murmur like sleep talk.
She rubbed against Su Ye's palm, not waking up, but instead sleeping even more soundly.
Su Ye chuckled softly.
He carefully withdrew his body and got out of bed.
His movements were smooth and flowing, exuding an indescribable elegance.
He casually draped a moon-white robe over himself and tied his belt.
The clothes, which were originally a bit messy, took on an ascetic, saintly quality when worn by him.
This was the Senior Brother of Purple Bamboo Peak of the Primordial Origin Holy Land.
No matter how black-bellied he was on the inside, his appearance was always so bright and open, flawless to anyone who looked at him.
He pushed open the door.
He took a deep breath of the morning air, which carried the fresh scent of bamboo leaves.
He felt refreshed and invigorated.
However, just as he was preparing to return to his own sleeping quarters to see if his jealous, beautiful Revered Master had calmed down from last night.
A sharp sound of breaking air suddenly came from the direction of the Purple Bamboo Peak's mountain gate.
The sound was extremely fast and extremely arrogant.
It made no attempt to conceal its Aura.
It even carried a domineering air of I am back, all idlers stand aside.
Su Ye's footsteps paused slightly.
He raised an eyebrow.
His gaze pierced through the layers of the Purple Bamboo Peak and looked toward the mountain gate.
That Aura... scorching like fire, arrogant and domineering.
Golden Core Realm third heaven.
In the entire Purple Bamboo Peak, besides the Revered Master who had long been in seclusion, and the ice block Lin Qingzhu who only knew how to practice sword skills.
There was only one person who dared to storm the mountain with such fanfare.
The playful smile at the corner of Su Ye's mouth deepened a little more.
It seems that Purple Bamboo Peak is going to be lively again today.
Purple Bamboo Peak, at the mountain gate.
Two Utility Disciples responsible for guarding the mountain gate were yawning in boredom.
Suddenly, a crimson streak of light streaked across the sky.
Like a burning meteorite, carrying rolling heat waves, it fell straight toward the mountain gate.
That... what is that?! One Disciple widened his eyes in terror.
Before he could react, Boom! With a loud noise, the streak of light slammed heavily onto the bluestone plaza in front of the mountain gate.
Dust and smoke rose everywhere.
The powerful shockwave directly flipped the two Utility Disciples to the ground, leaving them dazed and confused.
As the dust settled, a huge Scarlet Flame Eagle was revealed.
The Scarlet Flame Eagle's feathers were like fire, its eyes were fierce, and it exuded the Aura of a terrifying Yao Beast.
Standing on the broad back of the Scarlet Flame Eagle was a girl in red.
The girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old.
She was extremely beautiful.
Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her eyes were like autumn water.
However, those slightly upturned phoenix eyes were currently filled with arrogance and disdain.
She wore a fire-red flowing fairy dress, with a golden silk soft gauze tied around her waist, outlining her slender waist that could be held in one's hand.
In her hand, she held a crimson long whip, the tip of which was still trembling slightly, as if it could lash out at someone at any moment.
She looked down condescendingly at the two shivering Utility Disciples on the ground.
Her chin was slightly raised.
Her voice was crisp, but carried an unquestionable, spoiled ferocity.
What? I've only been gone for half a year, and you've already forgotten the rules of Purple Bamboo Peak?
How dare you block the way when you see Second Martial Sister returning to the mountain?
The two Disciples on the ground shivered all over when they heard this familiar voice.
They hurriedly scrambled to their knees, banging their heads on the ground with loud thuds.
Second... Second Martial Sister?!
Welcome back, Second Martial Sister!
We deserve to die! We were blind and didn't recognize Second Martial Sister's Scarlet Flame Eagle!
This girl in red was none other than the second Disciple of Purple Bamboo Peak of the Primordial Origin Holy Land—Jiang Wanyin.
She was also the second Personal Disciple of the Peak Master of Purple Bamboo Peak, Leng Yueli.
She was also the famous Little Demoness of the entire Primordial Origin Holy Land.
Not only was she gifted with extraordinary talent and possessed a Top-grade Fire Spirit Root, but because she was deeply favored by Leng Yueli and had that protective Senior Brother Su Ye, she could practically walk sideways within the Sect.
Jiang Wanyin snorted coldly.
She leaped lightly from the eagle's back.
Her red dress fluttered, like a blooming red lotus of raging fire.
She paid no attention to the two ants on the ground.
Instead, she casually threw a Low-Grade Spirit Stone, which accurately hit one of them on the head.
A reward for you.
Take my Little Red to the Spirit Beast Garden and feed it the best Fire Spirit Ganoderma.
If it loses even half a tael of weight, I will throw you into the Pill Furnace to refine medicine!
The Disciple couldn't care about the pain on his head; he held the Spirit Stone like a precious treasure and thanked her profusely.
Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, Second Martial Sister, for the reward!
Jiang Wanyin clapped her hands, as if brushing off some dust.
She looked up.
Her burning gaze fixed on the magnificent palace at the top of Purple Bamboo Peak.
On her face, which had been arrogant and domineering, a touch of a young girl's shyness and anticipation unexpectedly appeared.
Half a year... finally back.
She muttered to herself.
Her fingers subconsciously rubbed a delicate sachet at her waist.
It was a peace talisman she had specifically sought out before leaving.
She had originally intended to give it to that person, but because she was shy at the time, she hadn't given it away.
Returning from this training, not only had her cultivation broken through to the Golden Core Realm third heaven, but she had also found an extremely rare Warm Jade Marrow in an ancient Secret Realm.
She heard that the Cultivation Technique that Senior Brother practiced was on the cold side.
If he wore this Warm Jade Marrow, it would surely harmonize Yin and Yang and be of great benefit.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wanyin's heart burned with heat.
That Senior Brother who was as gentle as jade and always smiled kindly at her.
That Senior Brother who always helplessly helped her clean up the mess after she caused trouble.
Not having seen him for half a year, she wondered if he had missed her?
Hmph, if he dares not to miss me...
Jiang Wanyin waved the whip in her hand, cracking it sharply in the air.
I will... I will cry for him to see!
She put away her thoughts and was just preparing to walk up the mountain.
Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a deacon Disciple nearby, who was sneakily looking at her.
In that gaze, there seemed to be some secret he wanted to say but held back.
Jiang Wanyin's footsteps paused.
As a woman, her sixth sense made her instantly realize something was wrong.
Stop.
She shouted delicately.
The long whip in her hand, like a spirit snake coming out of its hole, instantly wrapped around the deacon Disciple's waist.
With a slight pull, she dragged the person directly in front of her.
Second... Second Martial Sister, spare me!
The deacon Disciple was so scared that his face turned ashen, and his legs were trembling.
Jiang Wanyin narrowed her eyes and looked him up and down.
She asked coldly, What kind of look is that? Do I have flowers growing on my face?
Or is it that... something has happened on Purple Bamboo Peak that I don't know about?
The deacon Disciple swallowed his saliva, his eyes flickering, not daring to look directly at Jiang Wanyin.
No... nothing... it's just... I just didn't expect Second Martial Sister to return so soon...
Snap! With a crisp sound, the whip in Jiang Wanyin's hand lashed fiercely against the bluestone slab nearby.
The hard stone slab instantly shattered, leaving a deep whip mark.
Cut the crap!
You know my temper.
I'll count to three.
If you don't tell the truth, this whip will hit you next time!
One!
The deacon Disciple looked at the shocking whip mark, and his psychological defense instantly collapsed.
On this Purple Bamboo Peak, who didn't know that Second Martial Sister was a person who meant what she said?
If you annoy the Senior Brother, you would at most be punished to face the wall at the Cliff of Repentance.
If you annoy the Third Martial Sister, you would at most be frozen by her cold gaze.
But if you annoy this Second Martial Sister... you would really end up with torn skin and flesh!
I'll talk! I'll talk!
The deacon Disciple knelt down with a thump and shouted with a crying tone.
It's... it's the Peak Revered Master... the Peak Revered Master recently accepted a new Personal Disciple a few days ago!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanyin frowned slightly.
The whip in her hand loosened slightly.
Accepting a Disciple?
Revered Master's temperament... she hasn't accepted a Disciple in hundreds of years.
Why did she suddenly change her ways this time?
What is the newcomer's name? Is it a man or a woman? What is their Aptitude?
Although she was a bit surprised, Jiang Wanyin didn't take it too seriously.
It was just one more Junior Brother or Junior Sister.
As long as they didn't fight with her for resources, and didn't fight with her for... Senior Brother.
Then it was fine.
However, the deacon Disciple's next sentence was like a basin of cold water, directly dousing the enthusiasm she had just ignited.
Re... returning to Second Martial Sister.
It's... it's a woman.
Her name is Qin Yurou.
I heard... I heard she possesses the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Heart and is also a Supreme Grade Water Spirit Root.
The Peak Revered Master values her highly and has granted her the Listening to Rain Pavilion to live in.
Hearing the words a woman, Jiang Wanyin's expression sank a bit.
Hearing Nine-Orifice Exquisite Heart and Supreme Grade Water Spirit Root, her eyes became even sharper.
This configuration, why does it sound a bit like that annoying Lin Qingzhu?
Another one pretending to be aloof?
Hmph.
Jiang Wanyin sneered.
It seems that Purple Bamboo Peak is going to have one more vase.
She is just a new girl, is she worth you making such a fuss?
If she understands the rules, this Senior Sister would not mind rewarding her a few Spirit Stones to spend.
Saying this, she loosened her grip on the whip and turned to leave.
In her eyes, as long as she remained Revered Master's most favored Second Disciple and Senior Brother's most cherished Second Junior Sister.
It did not matter how many newcomers arrived.
However.
That Utility Disciple seemed to be scared silly, or perhaps he wanted to seize this opportunity to show his loyalty to Jiang Wanyin.
He actually foolishly added:
No... it is not just that...
Second Senior Sister, that Qin Yurou... she... she is extremely beautiful.
And...
And what?!
Jiang Wanyin snapped her head around, the impatience in her eyes nearly overflowing.
And... Senior Brother... seems to be extra attentive to her.
Boom!
This sentence, like a clap of thunder, exploded in Jiang Wanyin's mind.
The originally calm Aura instantly became violent.
The air around her became distorted due to the agitation of spiritual power.
That red dress moved without wind, rustling loudly.
What did you say?
Jiang Wanyin approached that Utility Disciple step by step.
With every step, the bluestone slab beneath her feet cracked open.
Her voice was as cold as if it came from Hell.
Say it again.
How... is Senior Brother towards her?
That Utility Disciple was now regretting it so much his intestines turned green.
He felt the terrifying Aura emanating from Jiang Wanyin, his teeth chattering.
But since things had come to this, he could only bite the bullet and say:
Yesterday... yesterday, for her, Senior Brother not only spent a sky-high price to buy the ice heart moon lotus hairpin...
But also... stayed at the Listening to Rain Pavilion for the whole night...
And... has not come out yet...
Crack!
The long whip in Jiang Wanyin's hand had a tip snapped off by her own strength.
An unprecedented rage surged from her chest straight to the top of her head.
The ice heart moon lotus hairpin?
That was something she had begged for for a long time, and Senior Brother had said it was too expensive and could not bear to buy it!
Stayed for the whole night?
Has not come out yet?
A lone man and a lone woman!
Like dry wood and blazing fire!
Stayed in that Listening to Rain Pavilion for a whole night?!
Good!
Very good!
A very good Qin Yurou!
Jiang Wanyin laughed out of extreme anger.
That originally beautiful and moving face was now somewhat distorted by jealousy.
She never expected this.
She had been out training and fighting for her life, just to become a little stronger so she could stand by Senior Brother's side.
But in the end, her base was stolen at home!
That damned Lin Qingzhu is one thing.
After all, they grew up together and knew each other well; although she was annoying, it could be considered fair competition.
Where did this wild girl pop out from?
She has only been here for a few days?
And she already hooked Senior Brother's soul?
Not only did she steal Revered Master's affection.
But she also wants to steal her Senior Brother?
I would like to see.
Exactly which vixen it is.
Daring to steal food from this lady's bowl!
Jiang Wanyin stomped her foot hard.
Her whole body turned into a red afterimage, rushing violently towards the Listening to Rain Pavilion on the mountainside.
The speed was so fast that it even left a scorching trail in the air.
Everywhere she passed, the purple bamboo withered and turned yellow.
It showed just how much the rage in her heart had burned.
...
Meanwhile.
At the peak of Purple Bamboo Peak, deep in the main hall.
Leng Yueli, who was meditating, slowly opened her eyes.
In those eyes that seemed to contain the stars of eternity, a trace of helplessness flashed, along with a bit of playful mockery.
She naturally sensed that familiar and restless Aura.
Wanyin is back...
Leng Yueli parted her red lips slightly, her voice as cold and clear as jade beads falling on a plate.
This girl still has such a hot-headed temper.
Through the Void, she seemed to see that red-clad figure rushing angrily towards the Listening to Rain Pavilion.
If it were before.
She might have stepped in to stop it, to avoid these Disciples making things too awkward.
But now...
Leng Yueli thought of that Rebellious Disciple who had been acting recklessly with her last night.
She remembered the bold words he said about wanting to make Purple Bamboo Peak lively.
The corners of her mouth could not help but lift slightly.
Revealing a smile that could topple cities.
Yeer.
Your Second Junior Sister is back.
How do you plan to pass this hurdle?
If you do not handle it well...
The taste of a fire in the backyard is not pleasant.
Leng Yueli closed her eyes again.
With no intention of intervening at all.
She wanted to see.
This good Disciple who usually strategizes and plays everyone in the palm of his hand.
Facing this upcoming grand drama of three women fighting for one husband.
What kind of show he can put on.
...
Outside the Listening to Rain Pavilion.
Su Ye was standing with his hands behind his back, under a purple bamboo.
Seemingly admiring the tranquility of the bamboo forest.
In reality, he was checking the System panel.
Ding! Important plot character Jiang Wanyin detected returning.
Character: Jiang Wanyin (Second Junior Sister).
Cultivation: Golden Core Realm Third Layer.
Personality: Arrogant, tsundere, extremely protective of her own, has an extremely strong possessiveness towards the host.
Current Emotion: Extremely angry, jealousy level off the charts.
Triggered Task: Calm the Shura Field.
Task Description: Jiang Wanyin learned of the intimate relationship between the host and Qin Yurou and is on the verge of losing control. The host needs to pacify Jiang Wanyin while further deepening Qin Yurou's dependence and stimulating Lin Qingzhu who is observing in secret.
Task Reward: villain points +2000, one Profound Rank Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact Flowing Cloud Water Sleeves (suitable for Qin Yurou), one special item Heart Knot.
Looking at the task description on the System panel.
The smile in Su Ye's eyes deepened.
Calm the Shura Field?
No.
As a qualified villain.
How can he calm it down?
Of course, it is better to let this fire burn even brighter.
Only when things get chaotic.
Only by letting them fight each other and get jealous of each other.
Will they constantly lower their bottom line just to compete for a little bit of his attention.
Eventually...
All will become things in his palm.
She is here.
Su Ye whispered.
In his Divine Sense, that red flame had already approached the courtyard gate of the Listening to Rain Pavilion.
He turned around.
Adjusted his sleeves.
The expression on his face instantly switched.
From that sinister and cunning villain, he became a gentle, jade-like, perfect Senior Brother who seemed to know nothing about the coming storm.
Boom!
The originally exquisite carved courtyard gate of the Listening to Rain Pavilion.
Was kicked open by someone.
Wood chips flew everywhere.
A red figure, carrying a full body of Evil Qi, rushed in.
Qin Yurou!
Get out here!
This shout.
Not only shook the bamboo leaves in the courtyard to fall rustlingly.
But also scared Qin Yurou, who had just walked out of the room rubbing her sleepy eyes, causing her face to pale in terror.
She looked in terror at the red-clothed woman holding a long whip, full of Killing Intent.
Completely unaware of what had happened.
Second... Second Senior Sister?
Although Qin Yurou had never met Jiang Wanyin, seeing this posture, she guessed a little.
She subconsciously hid behind Su Ye.
That pitiful, seeking-protection look.
Falling into Jiang Wanyin's eyes, it was simply adding fuel to the fire.
Good!
As expected, a vixen who knows how to hook people!
You do not bow when you see this Senior Sister, and you actually dare to hide behind Senior Brother?
Jiang Wanyin was trembling with anger.
She flicked the long whip in her hand.
It made a harsh sonic boom.
Pointing directly at Qin Yurou behind Su Ye.
Senior Brother, move aside!
Today I will teach this unruly wild girl a lesson on behalf of Revered Master!
Facing this aggressive whip.
Su Ye did not even blink.
Instead of retreating, he advanced.
He took a step forward and blocked in front of Qin Yurou.
He did not use any spiritual power.
He just used those deep, calm eyes to quietly watch the furious Jiang Wanyin.
His voice was gentle, but carried an irresistible majesty.
Wanyin.
What are you making a fuss about?
This simple sentence.
Seemed to have some kind of magic.
It made the whip that Jiang Wanyin was about to swing stop abruptly in mid-air.
She looked at Su Ye.
Looking at that face she thought about day and night.
Her eyes suddenly turned red.
All the anger, all the arrogance.
At this moment, turned into full of grievances.
Senior Brother...
You... you are actually protecting her?
You, for this wild girl you have only known for a few days...
Are actually scolding me?
Jiang Wanyin's voice carried a hint of sobbing.
The whip in her hand hung down powerlessly.
Like a puppy that was injured outside, but found that its owner had a new pet when it returned home.
Pitiful and helpless.
And in the dark.
Behind that window that was blown open by Su Ye last night.
A green figure was hiding her breath, coldly watching all of this.
Lin Qingzhu's hand was gripping the window frame tightly.
Her nails almost embedded into the wood.
Watching that flashy red-clad Second Senior Sister rush up to question him directly.
In her heart, a strange sense of pleasure actually arose.
Well scolded.
Jiang Wanyin, although I hate you very much.
But this time...
You said what I dared not say.
At this moment.
Inside the small Listening to Rain Pavilion on Purple Bamboo Peak.
Three women.
Three plays.
And Su Ye, who was directing all of this.
Was standing in the center of the storm.
With that signature gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.
But in his heart, he was calculating.
What kind of posture to use.
To harvest this wave of rich villain points that were about to arrive.
