The Cold And Aloof Senior Sister Keeps Flirting With Me - Chapter 80

Yan Jue had witnessed the Demonic Cult’s sorcery and witchcraft in the original novel long ago.

It was just that the current plot differed significantly from the original, so she wasn’t sure if the male lead had used sorcery on Qi Xianqing as he did in the book.

That’s why, when they were by the cold pool that day, Yan Jue had asked Qi Xianqing if she had recently felt dizzy or lightheaded.

Qi Xianqing had said no at the time, which put Yan Jue’s mind at ease.

But she didn’t expect the male lead to use sorcery anyway.

Thinking this, Yan Jue’s expression darkened, and a cloud of gloom rose from her heart.

Yan Jue knew that Qi Xianqing, having been afflicted by Chu Fu’s sorcery, must have expended a lot of energy today.

This Spiritual Candlestick Fruit was rich in spiritual energy and very suitable for restoring Qi Xianqing’s energy.

Seeing Qi Xianqing eat the preserved fruit she had pickled, Yan Jue turned and went out to fetch hot water.

After all, Qi Xianqing was staying at her place tonight, and she needed to observe basic hospitality.

Qi Xianqing turned her head and watched the girl’s busy figure, her eyes flickering.

Because Qi Xianqing was in her room, Yan Jue first went to Du Ming’s place to tidy up.

The two quickly finished their cleanup.

Outside the window, the sound of rain was incessant, occasionally mixed with the roar of a fierce wind.

Yan Jue made a simple bed on the floor beneath the bed and slept there.

Qi Xianqing slept on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Yan Jue was truly a very clean person; there was not a trace of odor in the room.

She could smell the girl’s faint scent on the pillow, coupled with the intermittent moisture surging in from outside the window.

The scent of the Immortal Spirit Body floated at the tip of her nose. Yan Jue closed her eyes with difficulty and subconsciously clenched her fists.

She couldn’t control the urge to get closer to her, to burrow into her embrace and take a deep breath of her scent. When she was the little fox, she could recklessly burrow into Qi Xianqing’s arms, but now she could only stay two steps away from Qi Xianqing.

It had been a long time since she had been intimate with Qi Xianqing.

In this situation, the temptation of that scent only increased.

Yan Jue tried to fall asleep, but couldn’t. She looked at Qi Xianqing out of the corner of her eye.

Qi Xianqing was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her breathing very light.

Qi Xianqing always slept soundly. Yan Jue couldn’t tell if she was actually asleep, but based on her understanding of Qi Xianqing, she knew the other person was probably awake.

Yan Jue was about to close her eyes and try to sleep again when she suddenly heard Qi Xianqing’s voice from the bed: “Junior Sister seemed to know Chu Fu’s movements very early today on the martial arts stage.”

Yan Jue’s heart sank: “Yes, none of you noticed him, but my attention has been fixed on him.”

Once the male lead became a demon, there would be no more interaction between him and Yan Jue.

The male lead’s premature demonic transformation today meant that Yan Jue’s crisis in the early stages was completely over.

The reason Yan Jue still resolutely stepped onto the martial arts stage, even though she knew the Demon Lord and the male lead were planning to harm her, was because she clearly understood that if the Heavenly Dao absolutely insisted on pitting her against the male lead, she couldn’t possibly avoid it.

Since she couldn’t avoid it, she might as well face it head-on.

This would both quickly conclude the plot line and allow her to test again what the Heavenly Dao really wanted to do.

Was the Heavenly Dao’s goal absolutely to make her die? Or was it simply enough to push the male lead into becoming a demon?

It now seemed that the Heavenly Dao’s bottom line for her, the cannon fodder villain, was quite lenient.

But the next trouble…

Yan Jue, who had been lying on the floor bed, suddenly sat up and pretended to say casually, “Senior Sister, the cave we went to before was inhabited by someone from the Demonic Dao. I discovered this by accident.”

Yan Jue began to make up a story: “Once, when I was out for a night walk, I saw Chu Fu enter that cave. Every night afterward, I saw Chu Fu carrying things into that cave. Chu Fu had an extremely close relationship with him before his demonic transformation.”

Qi Xianqing raised her eyebrow: “Hmm.”

Qi Xianqing had also been puzzled by this point.

She had previously noticed that Chu Fu possessed many magical artifacts, which was impossible for a mere preparatory disciple who hadn’t officially entered the inner sect.

Someone was continuously providing Chu Fu with magical artifacts.

Yan Jue: “But that person from the Demonic Dao died very strangely. Even though Chu Fu provided him with food and water every day, he still died.”

“Do you think he might have possessed the body of a high-ranking expert in our sect?”

Yan Jue hesitated for a long time before telling Qi Xianqing these things.

Firstly, it was too incredible, and whether Qi Xianqing would believe her was an issue.

Secondly, Qi Xianqing was always the person who respected her teachers and the Dao the most. How could she possibly suspect the sect master, whom she respected so much, based on her words?

Yan Jue figured that a subtle hint would suffice.

After all, Qi Xianqing was so smart; she would definitely be mindful because of Yan Jue’s words.

In the darkness, Qi Xianqing’s voice was slightly husky: “Junior Sister Yan means for me to be wary of the high level figures in the Five Dragons Gate.”

Yan Jue swallowed hard. Qi Xianqing’s comprehension was indeed excellent: “That’s just my guess.”

Qi Xianqing was silent for a long time before saying, “I didn’t tell the Sect Master-Uncle about the cave directly. Instead, I told my master and asked him to relay the message.”

Yan Jue let out a sigh of relief. It seemed Qi Xianqing possessed a basic level of vigilance.

The magical artifacts in Chu Fu’s arms changed every day. Who exactly was giving him these artifacts? If the person from the Demonic Cult in the cave really died, no one would give Chu Fu artifacts anymore. Anyone would become suspicious.

Raindrops tapped against the window, one by one, like the trembling of a zither string.

Yan Jue couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of person is Sect Master Uncle usually?”

Qi Xianqing: “Sect Master Uncle is a person who hates evil and injustice. During the past great war between Immortals and Demons, he once slaughtered thousands of demons and established a great legacy for Five Dragons Mountain.”

Yan Jue: “Chu Fu and you…”

Qi Xianqing’s voice showed no emotion: “I’ve grown used to it. Since I came up the mountain at the age of eight, people have spread word that I have a superb cultivation physique. Many immortal cultivation families came to propose marriage, hoping to dual cultivate with me, but Sect Master Uncle rejected them all.”

“However, Sect Master Uncle seems to highly favor me and Chu Fu.”

Yan Jue was slightly stunned.

Qi Xianqing: “Chu Fu is related to the Chu Family.”

Although she had read the novel before, Yan Jue had never paid attention to the family of the disgusting male lead.

Which family did the male lead come from? What was the story of the Chu Family?

Qi Xianqing seemed to know Yan Jue’s confusion and said indifferently, “During the great war between Immortals and Demons, all six immortal sects participated, along with the help of the five great families.”

Yan Jue: “But now there are only four immortal cultivation families.”

Yan Jue often went to the Scripture Repository and had read records about the immortal cultivation families. There were families that cultivated immortality for generations, possessing extremely revered status, collectively known as the Four Great Families.

Qi Xianqing: “The Chu Family was wiped out in the war between Immortals and Demons. Chu Fu is considered the descendant of a loyal martyr.”

“Precisely because of this, Sect Master Uncle has always liked Chu Fu. As soon as Chu Fu entered the gate, he made him a preparatory disciple.”

In the silent night, the sound of rain was pattering outside the window.

Yan Jue probed, asking, “What are your views on demons?”

Qi Xianqing stared at the ceiling and slowly said, “If I see one, I will instantly execute it.”

Yan Jue’s heart chilled: “What about beasts?”

In the darkness, Qi Xianqing fell briefly silent.

Actually, when she walked into the room that night, she vaguely saw a few fiery red large tails in the air.

But it was only a fleeting glimpse.

Qi Xianqing had a faint thought in her mind.

But that thought was only a suspicion and had never been confirmed.

She liked the little fox very much, and towards Yan Jue, she also seemed to harbor a different kind of emotion, one she had never felt before.

The more she tested the little fox and Yan Jue, the closer everything that happened seemed to align with that thought in her heart.

Whenever Qi Xianqing thought of this, her mood became extremely complicated, so she could only temporarily set it aside and not think about it.

Qi Xianqing, in this matter, was uncharacteristically trying to avoid the truth, applying the brakes just in time and closing her eyes instead of looking at it.

Are Yan Jue and the little fox the same person?

Qi Xianqing couldn’t confirm it yet, so she could only pretend nothing had happened.

When Qi Xianqing used to kill demons and beasts outside, she never showed mercy. It could be said that she had killed countless beasts and carried innumerable beast lives on her conscience.

Qi Xianqing knew very well that she wasn’t a good person.

How could a person like her…

Qi Xianqing frowned and shook her head: “I don’t know.”

“It’s best if I don’t see it.”

Yan Jue: “…”

The first day of the break arrived quickly.

Warm morning sunlight scattered into the room. The fierce winds that had been roaring last night had stopped.

Perhaps because Qi Xianqing was present, Yan Jue woke up very early.

When Yan Jue woke up, Qi Xianqing was still asleep.

The girl’s peach-blossom eyes were slightly lowered, her exposed arms were porcelain white, and she was sleeping lightly.

It seemed that the sorcery had indeed affected Qi Xianqing yesterday, but Qi Xianqing was always strong and never showed it.

Yan Jue quietly got out of bed, took out two Spiritual Candlestick Fruits, and placed them on the table.

When Qi Xianqing woke up, she saw Yan Jue entering with a plate.

Yan Jue had actually prepared a very rich breakfast.

The pale red, square shaped pastries, though not particularly attractive in appearance, tasted delicious.

Two round Spiritual Candlestick Fruits were placed next to the plate.

Qi Xianqing was slightly surprised: “That Spiritual Candlestick Fruit, you used it…”

When Qi Xianqing ate the preserved spiritual fruit last night, she thought Yan Jue had used the only Spiritual Candlestick Fruit as an ingredient.

But now she discovered that Yan Jue had somehow acquired many Spiritual Candlestick Fruits.

Yan Jue explained: “I found an empty space in the backyard of the Cloud Water Sect and planted them after eating the Spiritual Candlestick Fruit.”

“…”

Qi Xianqing smiled and slowly began to eat.

Because the incident of Chu Fu’s demonic transformation had only just happened yesterday, the Five Dragons Peak tournament would take a ten day break.

After all, the male lead had waited five years to begin his rise after his demonic transformation, and by that time, she would be God knows where. Yan Jue wasn’t too nervous.

There was no need to rush now.

Rushing wouldn’t help either, Yan Jue thought. She might as well go to the foot of Five Dragons Mountain another day to see if she could escape now, which was the right thing to do.

Yan Jue actually didn’t want the break.

During the competition, Yan Jue’s heart was constantly on edge.

She would rather finish the matches quickly. Anyway, her purpose for participating in the competition was just those one thousand high grade spirit stones…

Du Ming: “But the match schedule for ten days from now is already out. Let’s go take a look at the Five Dragons Plaza.”
