Imprisoned by Forced Love! The Yandere Disciple Tied My Hands and Told Me to Be Good - Chapter 26

It seemed that the feeling of kissing Yue Qi was slightly different every time. In the past, it was mostly awkwardness, reluctance, pushing, and avoidance. Mu Chenyuan had never seriously felt what it was like to kiss someone.

But this time, since he had promised Yue Qi, he made an effort to suppress his thoughts of resistance. He immersed himself fully into the moment, pretending he was Yue Qi’s lover.

Sensing Mu Chenyuan’s cooperation, the dark, churning emotions in Yue Qi’s eyes suddenly receded. A brilliant, shimmering light sparked bit by bit, like stars suddenly falling to earth on a gloomy, rainy night.

They kissed for an unknown amount of time until the rain gradually stopped. The horizon held the faint light of dawn, with a sliver of magnificent gold shining through the edges of the rolling, pale white clouds. Yet, this long, tender kiss had not ended.

Mu Chenyuan was nearly melting into Yue Qi’s warm body temperature. The intense fragrance of magnolia almost drowned him. The lips and tongues interlaced with his were as scorching as the fingertips pressing against his soaked clothing; it felt as if a fire were burning.

Finally, Yue Qi ended the long kiss. He gently touched the tip of his nose against Mu Chenyuan’s, a faint trace of lingering romance etched between his brows. Though the mint-green in his eyes was cold, it couldn’t compete with the scorching heat remaining on his lips.

Just as Yue Qi reached his hand toward Mu Chenyuan’s chest, Mu Chenyuan suddenly heard the system’s voice in his mind.

【Congratulations, Host, for completing the second mission! It is now time for the Mystery Box reward.】

Mu Chenyuan was distracted by the system’s voice.

(Content Omitted)

The system began to urge him: 【Host, choose a Mystery Box first. If you pick a grand prize, it might be…】

“Be a pain in the ass!” Mu Chenyuan grumbled internally. “I don’t give a damn about your crappy rewards!”

【Host still has to pick one.】

Left with no choice, Mu Chenyuan said: “Then I’ll pick number one…”

【Understood, Host. Opening the Mystery Box reward for you now.】

A moment later.

【Congratulations, Host! You have unlocked the reward…】

God damn it!

Mu Chenyuan knew these Mystery Box rewards were completely unreliable. Every single time, it was a reward that nearly cost him his life!

Furthermore, why didn’t this reward require someone else to trigger it this time?

Just as this doubt arose, the “System-Master of Clarification” explained enthusiastically: 【Host, it has already been triggered. After you left, Yu Jinyao fed the male protagonist medicine.】

“Then what was the point of me picking a Mystery Box?”

【There is a point! If you hadn’t picked this one, the medicinal effect might not have been like this, or it might not have lasted as long.】

Mu Chenyuan: “…”

Meanwhile, at the Linglong Palace of the Yuyu Sect.

“Reporting to the Sect Leader: there was an abnormal light disturbance from the direction of the Demon Realm just now. Although I am not entirely certain, it felt… as if it were…”

“The light emitted by Celestial Immortal Zhanwang’s natal sword…”

“Could it be… that the Celestial Immortal is still…”

The disciple kneeling below the high steps didn’t dare lift his head to look at the man sitting upright and solemn on the dais. He kept his head low, his words stuttering. However, the man on the dais, who had been sitting in meditation with his eyes closed, had no reaction throughout.

His thick, long eyelashes cast shadows on his lower eyelids under the faint morning light shining from above. On his cold, handsome face, there was only frost.

After a long silence, a cool, mature voice finally drifted down from above, accompanied by a weak, cold light.

“He is already dead.”

After sunrise, the sunlight grew strong, and the woods could no longer hide the two men’s intimate affairs. Mu Chenyuan found it humiliating and, moreover, painful. He refused to cooperate no matter what.

Yue Qi had no choice but to teleport Mu Chenyuan back to the immortal residence on the mountain. Along the way, he fed him many Spring-Soothing Pills.

Seven days later, Mu Chenyuan was physically exhausted. Furthermore, he discovered that his body was incredibly compatible with Yue Qi’s; it was simply far too pleasurable. It had to be the fault of those god-forsaken Spring-Soothing Pills!! He had lost all face!!

But even though his body had surrendered, he still couldn’t mentally accept a man.

Because Mu Chenyuan’s legs were so weak he couldn’t even stand, he could only lie in bed like a paralyzed old man. Then, he fell into a bout of sulking again. This wasn’t just a “talk” that would be broken in half a second.

It reached the point where Yue Qi held a freshly roasted skewer of his favorite large meat, offering to feed him personally, but Mu Chenyuan just covered his head with the quilt—looking as if he would rather starve to death than yield.

Seeing Mu Chenyuan so angry, Yue Qi was at a total loss. He also knew that he… had made Master unhappy. He could only coax him: “As long as Master eats, I will take Master out to play again. We can go anywhere you want this time, okay?”

Mu Chenyuan still kept his head covered and turned his back, ignoring him. He whispered to the system: “System, what is my next mission? Do I need to go out?”

【Host’s next mission can be done either way.】

“What does that mean?”

【The mission content is: Send a message to your Senior Brother, Chu Yun, to tell him where you are and ask him to come rescue you.】

Mu Chenyuan understood. He quickly added: “Introduce the relationship between me and my Senior Brother.”

If they were truly close, he definitely wouldn’t have stood by and watched Yue Qi take him away. Unless… the relationship wasn’t very good?

The system replied: 【The relationship between you two is just average. Primarily, it’s because your Senior Brother practices the Path of Emotionlessness. You know the deal to protect all living beings under heaven, one must sever all emotions and love.】

【By sacrificing only you, the peace of the world could be maintained. As the Sect Leader, he would certainly choose to sacrifice the few for the sake of the many. How could he possibly let the disciples of the Yuyu Sect be devastated by the male protagonist for your sake?】

“So, he really did just watch as I was taken away by Yue Qi?”

【Of course not.】

“I knew it! A Senior Brother must still have some…”

【He watched as you were ‘killed’ by the male protagonist.】

Mu Chenyuan: “…”

“Wait, System, I was killed?!”

【Yes. To make everyone give up the idea of rescuing you, the male protagonist ‘killed’ you right in front of them. It was a fake death, naturally.】

“Then why did Wei Lingyu spread rumors about me being thrown into the Demon Abyss or something?”

【Wei Lingyu was captured and brought to the Demon Realm along with you, so he knows you aren’t dead.】

Mu Chenyuan already felt the difficulty of this mission was quite high. He complained to the system: “An Emotionless Path Senior Brother who has no feelings for me whatsoever… if I send him a message asking for rescue, he’ll definitely ignore me.”

The system said: 【Don’t worry, Host. For this mission, you only need to ask for help; he doesn’t actually have to come save you.】

“Really? That simple?” Mu Chenyuan’s sorrow turned to joy instantly.

【Yes. The metric for completing the mission is simply that he successfully receives your distress signal. But I must emphasize: you must send the letter or voice transmission to the target personally. It won’t count if someone else relays it.】

Despite that, Mu Chenyuan was still very happy. He gave the system a massive virtual “mwah.”

Ha. Another freebie mission. Awesome!
