The Junior Sister Isn't Flirtatious At All; It's All Their Fault for Being Too Seductive - Chapter 40

The little turtle was a bit worried, but it knew that with its current cultivation, going out would only drag Jiang Luoyue down, so it could only wait obediently. It looked at the delicious-smelling things beside it and couldn’t help but drool. No, this kind-looking Sister is fighting for me. How can I eat here with a clear conscience? But it was truly hungry, having just hatched. After hesitating, it couldn’t resist the temptation, stretched out its head, and began gnawing on the chicken leg.

The three people outside were now united against Jiang Luoyue. Seeing her walk out of the cave entrance, they all gripped their swords, ready to attack.

“I don’t know why you’re attacking a little turtle, but just now… you tore my clothes,” Jiang Luoyue looked at the Demonic Cultivator who had fought her. “You’re dead.”

Jiang Luoyue noticed that the two Demonic Cultivators were at the initial Nascent Soul Stage, the same as her own cultivation, while the third person who arrived later was at the late Nascent Soul Stage, two minor stages higher than them. Jiang Luoyue could only use Gu Wangfeng’s power. She could only use Gu Wangfeng’s power twice more, so she couldn’t afford to make a mistake when she made her move. However, due to the limitations of her own cultivation, she found she couldn’t fully exert the Greater Ascension Stage power of the peach branch.

“System, is there a way to briefly increase my cultivation?” Jiang Luoyue asked the system internally.

“A Comprehension Pill can, Host. Your points are sufficient for the exchange,” the system said, hesitating slightly. “The Comprehension Pill can raise the Host’s cultivation to the Peak Greater Ascension Stage for the duration of one incense stick, but it will cause severe backlash. Afterwards, the Host will be confined to bed for half a month at best, or in a coma for a year and a half at worst.”

“No matter,” Jiang Luoyue requested to exchange for the Comprehension Pill.

She was well aware of her current predicament. Even if she went out and said she wouldn’t steal the turtle, based solely on the fact that she could enter the barrier, the three people outside would definitely not let her go. Moreover, she wanted to take the turtle with her. Although the turtle wasn’t as fluffy and cute as the little fox, she was willing to protect this poor little orphan.

Jiang Luoyue swallowed the Comprehension Pill and walked out of the barrier. The three people immediately drew their swords and attacked her.

Jiang Luoyue concentrated all her spiritual power onto the peach branch. With one swing, all three fell to the ground, vomiting blood.

“How is that possible? You were only Nascent Soul just now!” The Demonic Cultivator looked at Jiang Luoyue in disbelief, as if she were a terrifying monster.

“You used a Comprehension Pill! Are you crazy?!”

Jiang Luoyue wasted no more words. She took out the Turtle Clan’s inherited sword and cleanly slit the throats of all three, then quickly stepped back so the blood wouldn’t spray onto her skirt.

Jiang Luoyue returned to the cave. The little turtle’s mouth was dirty from eating. It had never eaten mortal food before; it was too delicious! Seeing the beautiful Sister return, the little turtle excitedly shouted, “Sister, you’re back! Did you win?”

“Mm,” Jiang Luoyue showed a gentle smile.

Although the little turtle already believed Jiang Luoyue wasn’t a bad person, it wasn’t entirely willing to contract as a spiritual beast. But the Sister had indeed saved it, so it should repay her.

“Sister, do you want me to be your spiritual beast?”

Jiang Luoyue saw the little turtle’s conflicted expression and knew it was unwilling.

“If you don’t want to, I won’t force you,” Jiang Luoyue looked around. “Can you send me out? My Dao-companion should still be waiting for me.”

The little turtle saw that she truly didn’t seem to care. “I really don’t want to. But Sister, so many people outside are fighting to contract with me. Why don’t you want to?”

“I also saved a little fox before. He was unwilling, and he stayed with me mooching food for a long time,” Jiang Luoyue told the little turtle about the little fox. She didn’t know where the little fox had gone or if he would ever return.

The little turtle nodded, a look of conflict and hesitation on its small turtle face. “Sister, I’m too weak. Can you…” It wanted the beautiful Sister’s protection, but it couldn’t offer compensation. It found it hard to say, but this Sister was the only good person it had ever met.

“En, then I’ll protect you. Come with me,” Jiang Luoyue thought for a moment and then nodded.

“Thank you, Sister. I have an inheritance left by my parents that can conceal my aura. After we leave, others will just think I’m a common turtle and won’t try to steal me. I won’t drag Sister down,” the little turtle crawled onto Jiang Luoyue’s leg and rubbed against her affectionately.

Jiang Luoyue patted the little turtle’s shell. “Then let’s go.”

The little turtle nodded, and following the instructions of its inheritance, it led Jiang Luoyue out of the secret realm.

At the Song family, the Western Cloud Sect had already sent someone to collect the offerings. Yun Kaiji also came. Logically, such a minor matter didn’t require Young Master Yun’s presence, but he remembered Yue Wenqiu was here and wanted to see his friend.

“Our cultivators had an accident while searching for supplies some time ago. My cousin set out again a few days ago but hasn’t returned yet. May I ask Young Master Yun for a bit more time?” Song Weiyuan bowed respectfully.

“Hmm? Still went to that mountain? Jiang Luoyue and Yue Wenqiu are both Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. Why haven’t they returned yet?” Yun Kaiji was puzzled. That mountain was provided for the various cultivation aristocratic families to search for supplies themselves. It wasn’t considered dangerous; Golden Core Stage cultivators could move freely there. For Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, shouldn’t they be able to bring back a large bag of supplies in a single day?

“I find that strange too. Maybe my cousin was greedy and wanted to bring back more things,” Song Weiyuan scratched his head. He also didn’t think the place was dangerous.

Yun Kaiji felt uneasy and took out his communication jade slip to message Yue Wenqiu.

“Where are you? Why haven’t you returned yet?”

Yue Wenqiu’s message came back quickly. “Luoyue mistakenly entered an array and hasn’t come out yet.”

“Do you need me to bring an Array Cultivator over?”

Yun Kaiji and Song Weiyuan were both worried upon seeing Yue Wenqiu’s message. In all these years, we’ve never heard of any array on that mountain!

“You stay here. I’ll go right away,” Yun Kaiji said, and immediately messaged the most skilled Array Cultivator in his sect to come along.

Just as Yue Wenqiu and Jiang Luoxing were waiting for Yun Kaiji to bring help, Jiang Luoyue appeared. They looked at Jiang Luoyue with surprise, along with the turtle she was holding.

Jiang Luoyue was in a terrible state, dirty all over, her clothes torn, and her skirt stained with blood.

“Elder Sister! What happened to you?” Jiang Luoxing rushed over and hugged Jiang Luoyue.

The duration of one incense stick was up. Jiang Luoyue was completely drained of strength, blood was leaking from her orifices, and she collapsed into Jiang Luoxing’s arms. Yue Wenqiu was also startled and quickly moved closer to Jiang Luoyue.

“Pretty Sister! What happened to you! Sister was fine just a moment ago!” The little turtle in Jiang Luoyue’s arms tugged at the fabric covering her chest, crying loudly.

Jiang Luoxing and Yue Wenqiu were bewildered. We went to chase a fox, but we came back holding a turtle instead?
