Chapter 95 Master, This is the Last Time

"You are much smarter than your Revered Master."

Yun Yuzhen: "..."

What does this have to do with me?!

Holy Master Luo Qinghan said no more, turning into a streak of light and vanishing into the horizon.

Xiao Yichen stood frozen on the spot, not coming to his senses for a long time.

That's it?

Wasn't the Holy Lord here to demand accountability? Why does it seem more like she came to... win people over?!

He glanced at Su Ye, his eyes filled with wariness and confusion.

What kind of magic does this guy have to make even the Holy Lord look at him in a different light?

"Senior Brother Xiao, why are you still standing there? The Holy Lord has already left."

Su Ye looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Yichen's face turned ashen; he gave a cold snort and also departed as a streak of light.

...

Inside the Cold Jade Palace.

Yun Yuzhen sat on the Cold Jade Couch, arms crossed, glaring huffily at Su Ye.

"What did you mean by telling the Holy Lord 'it's between the two of us'?! What is there between us?!"

"Revered Master, don't be so agitated."

Su Ye sat down beside her with a chuckle. "The Holy Lord just said it casually; she didn't take it seriously."

"Even so, you can't..."

Halfway through her sentence, Yun Yuzhen suddenly remembered something and looked at him warily.

"Wait, do you have some designs on the Holy Lord?"

Su Ye was stunned.

"Revered Master, where are your thoughts wandering?"

"I don't care!"

Yun Yuzhen grabbed his sleeve, a rare flash of panic appearing in her eyes.

"You... you aren't allowed to have ideas about the Holy Lord!"

Seeing her nervous appearance, Su Ye suddenly laughed.

He reached out and gently pinched Yun Yuzhen's cheek.

"Revered Master, rest assured. You are the only one in my heart."

"Who... who wants you to rest assured!"

Yun Yuzhen swiped his hand away in embarrassment. "I'm afraid you'll cause trouble! The Holy Lord is not someone to be trifled with!"

"Yes, yes, Revered Master is right."

Su Ye nodded with a smile, his gaze incredibly tender.

Yun Yuzhen's heart raced under his gaze, and she turned her head away, not daring to meet his eyes.

Lin Waner sat to the side with her chin in her hands, watching with great interest.

"Light Snow, when do you think Revered Master and Senior Brother will finally be together?"

Lin Qianxue said expressionlessly, "I don't know."

"I think it'll be soon!"

Lin Waner clenched her small fists. "Once Senior Brother takes down the Holy Lord as well, our Purple Bamboo Peak will be invincible under heaven!"

Lin Qianxue: "???"

What kind of logic is this?!

...

Nightfall.

Cold Jade Palace, Yun Yuzhen's bedchamber.

Su Ye slipped in, familiar with the way.

Yun Yuzhen was meditating on the couch. Sensing his aura, she opened her eyes and glared at him crossly.

"What are you here for again?"

"To bring Revered Master something good."

Su Ye sat on the edge of the couch with a smile and pulled out a small jade bottle from his robes.

"This is the supreme yin ultimate bliss pill I got from the Holy Lord today... ahem, no, from Peak Master Liu Changqing. Does Revered Master want to try it?"

Yun Yuzhen's pretty face flushed red.

"No!"

"Really don't want it?"

Su Ye leaned closer to her, a mischievous smile in his eyes. "This Medicinal Pill is Sovereign Grade; it can nourish the Origin and restore Origin Qi. Revered Master was so tired last night, you need to supplement yourself well tonight."

"You... shut up!"

Yun Yuzhen was exasperated and reached out to hit him.

But Su Ye grabbed her waist and pulled her directly into his arms.

"Revered Master, don't move."

His voice was low and carried a hint of raspiness. "Let your Disciple hold you properly."

Yun Yuzhen's whole body stiffened.

She wanted to struggle, but found she couldn't muster any strength at all.

This Rebellious Disciple, clearly his cultivation is inferior to hers, so how can he easily restrain her every time?

"You... let go..."

Her voice grew smaller and smaller, finally becoming barely audible.

Because Su Ye had already lowered his head and gently kissed her lips.

...

(Three thousand words omitted here, those who know, know)

...

An hour later.

Yun Yuzhen lay limp in Su Ye's arms, the corners of her eyes red, without even the strength to move a finger.

Su Ye held her, gently stroking her long hair, his eyes full of doting.

"Revered Master, was it comfortable?"

"Shut up..."

Yun Yuzhen glared at him weakly, her voice incredibly soft and delicate.

Su Ye laughed, took a supreme yin ultimate bliss pill from nearby, and fed it into her mouth.

"Be good, eat it. There's serious business tomorrow."

Yun Yuzhen swallowed the pill and felt a warm current surge into her limbs and bones, her physical strength recovering quite a bit.

She looked up at Su Ye's handsome face, a flash of complexity in her eyes.

"Yeer..."

"Hmm?"

"Do you... do you really only like your Revered Master?"

Su Ye was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.

"Silly Revered Master, of course I only like you."

"Then what about the Holy Lord?"

Yun Yuzhen stared into his eyes. "The way the Holy Lord looked at you today... wasn't right."

Su Ye burst out laughing.

"Revered Master, you're overthinking it. The Holy Lord just thinks I'm useful and wants to use me to deal with certain people."

"What people?"

"I don't know."

Su Ye shook his head. "But since she wants me to crush everyone in the Grand Competition, she must want to intimidate some forces hidden in the shadows. As for what they are, we'll naturally know in three months."

Yun Yuzhen fell silent.

She knew Su Ye was right.

Holy Lord Holy Master Luo Qinghan was never a simple person.

Her ability to hold the position of Holy Lord in a place like Taichu Holy Land, where experts are as common as clouds, definitely didn't rely solely on her cultivation.

"Revered Master, don't worry."

Su Ye held her tighter. "No matter what the Holy Lord wants to do, I won't let anyone hurt you. If anyone dares to touch a single hair on your head, I will exterminate their entire clan."

Yun Yuzhen felt a warmth in her heart and snuggled into his arms.

"Rebellious Disciple..."

"Hmm?"

"It's nothing."

She closed her eyes, but a sweet smile curled at the corners of her mouth.

...

At the same time.

Holy Lords Hall.

Holy Master Luo Qinghan stood with her hands behind her back, looking at the moonlight outside the window, her gaze deep as the starry sky.

In her hand, she held the small booklet she had obtained from Su Ye.

"Interesting little fellow."

She whispered to herself, a very faint smile curling her lips.

"Yun Yuzhen has certainly picked up a treasure."

Behind her, a dark shadow quietly appeared.

"Holy Lord, do you really believe that Su Ye can do it?"

"He can."

Holy Master Luo Qinghan didn't look back, her tone certain.

"He has something on him that I cannot see through. That kind of thing, I have only seen on those legendary existences."

The dark shadow was startled.

"You mean..."

"It cannot be spoken."

Holy Master Luo Qinghan interrupted him. "Pass down the order: within three months, fully cooperate with Purple Bamboo Peak. Give Su Ye whatever he needs."

"Yes!"

The dark shadow took the command and quietly vanished.

Holy Master Luo Qinghan continued to watch the moonlight outside the window, a flash of expectation in her eyes.

"Three months later... I hope you can give me a surprise."

...

Early the next morning.

Purple Bamboo Peak, Cold Jade Palace.

Su Ye was lying on Yun Yuzhen's couch, sleeping soundly, with the equally soundly sleeping Yun Yuzhen held in his arms.

Their clothes were in disarray; the scene was extremely... unsightly.

Suddenly.

Lin Waner's loud voice came from outside the door:

"Senior Brother! Senior Brother! This is bad!"

"People from Beast Taming Peak have come to our door!"

Su Ye snapped his eyes open.

Yun Yuzhen was also startled awake, hurriedly pulling up the quilt to cover her body.

"What's the situation?!"

Su Ye rolled out of bed and casually threw on his outer robe.

"Waner, speak clearly!"

Lin Waner said anxiously from outside: "Elder Zhou from Beast Taming Peak brought a group of Disciples, saying we stole a sixth-grade spirit beast egg! Now they're blocking the mountain gate, demanding an explanation from us!"

Su Ye was stunned.

Then, he laughed.

"Stealing a Spirit Beast egg? When did we ever steal a Spirit Beast egg?"

He paused, a flash of cunning light in his eyes.

"However... since they've come to our door of their own accord, then we'll play with them."

"Purple Bamboo Peak Bandit Squad, assemble!"

...
