Chapter 110: Bai Yu Feels Sour

"Disciple greets the master."

"Earth Body and Wood Body laughed in unison."

"At this moment, they were both very happy, and on their identical beautiful faces bloomed a beautiful smile."

"Bai Yuan lightly nodded and said: 'Earth Body, step away for a moment.'"

"'Yes, Master.' Earth Body left."

"Wood Body stepped forward, took Bai Yuan's hand, and smiled: 'Master, what is that method? It's so mysterious, even Earth Body doesn't know it.'"

"Bai Yuan's expression was calm, but he wasn't in a hurry to speak; he simply put an arm around Bai Yu and came to an open space to wait quietly."

"Mu Junwu's Wood Body showed great patience, displaying no impatience, simply standing there quietly holding Bai Yuan's hand."

"After a while, Bai Yu's wine-red eyes regained their luster; she looked at Bai Yuan, and a strange color flashed in the depths of her eyes."

"'Do you know how to proceed from now on?' Bai Yuan asked."

"Bai Yu nodded and smiled: 'Of course I know, but my future path still needs your help, Master; otherwise I can't go on.'"

"Bai Yuan said: 'Naturally I will help. All right, little Yu, I have something to say with her; go wait over there for a while.'"

"Bai Yuan didn't say it because he was worried Bai Yu would suddenly wake up, hear his and Mu Junwu's Wood Body's shady talk, and be led astray."

"Bai Yu wasn't as honest as Mu Junwu's several split bodies; she turned her big eyes, looked pitifully at Bai Yuan, and said: 'Master, are you planning to do something shameful with your junior sister?'"

"Bai Yuan's face darkened, he reached out and grabbed Bai Yu's little ear, feigning anger: 'Little Yu, where did you learn these things?'"

"Bai Yu, who didn't feel much pain, pouted and let Bai Yuan pull her ear, saying: 'Master, I've been your senior disciple for seven years; even I have to keep secrets, so it's not something shameful.'"

"Bai Yuan's face grew darker: 'Little Yu, you're still too young; you're not fit to know. I'll tell you when you grow up.'"

"Bai Yu was utterly unmoved."

"'Master, you say I'm young? How am I young? I'm over five hundred years old, while Junwu is at most two hundred—she's much younger than me, yet she knows, so why can't I?' Bai Yu lifted her eyes to meet Bai Yuan's, hands on hips, head high, chest out, and said."

"Bai Yuan glanced at Bai Yu's straight-as-a-board flat chest, then at her height that just reached his waist, and said: 'Little Yu, you really aren't fit to know this.'"

"Bai Yu's face instantly fell; she swiped away Bai Yuan's hand pulling her ear, turned, and stomped off step by step."

"As she walked, Bai Yu muttered: 'Master plays favorites! Master plays favorites! Master prefers the new and discards the old! Prefers the new and discards the old! Master is the worst! Master is the worst...'"

"Bai Yuan's mouth twitched as he listened; he suddenly wanted to grab Bai Yu back, press her to the ground, and give her a beating to see if she'd still dare to spout nonsense."

"But thinking is just thinking; Bai Yuan could only watch Bai Yu's retreating back and sigh helplessly."

"Thus, until Bai Yu's figure disappeared from their sight, Wood Body smiled eagerly and said: 'Master, what exactly is the method?'"

"Bai Yuan's eyes flashed as he said: 'Promise me you won't tell anyone else.'"

"Wood Body hastily nodded, raised a hand, and said: 'Disciple swears that if I tell others your method, Master, I will suffer...'"

"Bai Yuan hastily covered Wood Body's mouth."

"Orthodox cultivators don't go around swearing oaths."

"Although cultivators' oaths don't necessarily come true, they still somewhat affect one's cultivation; Bai Yuan didn't want Mu Junwu's Wood Body to be unable to cultivate the Scripture of Longevity to perfection."

"'Having this intention is enough.' Bai Yuan immediately leaned toward Wood Body, bringing his mouth to her ear, and then whispered."

"Bai Yu, who was secretly watching from afar, stomped her foot in anger; she had been concentrating on eavesdropping, yet still heard nothing."

"'Master plays favorites! Master plays favorites!' Bai Yu felt sour, more heartbroken than when she saw Bai Yuan pursuing Gu Yue Na."

"Suddenly, Wood Body's voice entered her ear: 'Master, find a secluded place and secretly touch for a while—will it really solve my bodily problem?'"

"'Of course.'"

"Bai Yu heard Bai Yuan's affirmative answer."

"Then she immediately heard Wood Body's coquettish voice: 'Master, please come teach the disciple; I'm afraid I'll mess up the first attempt.'"

"This made Bai Yu feel so sour she wanted to bite someone."

"Once, only she would act coquettish with the master; later came a junior sister daughter, but Wang Qiu'er wouldn't compete for favor with her, this senior sister/mother—yet Wood Body is completely different!"

"'You damn Mu Junwu! I recommended you to the master in vain! You repay kindness with enmity, competing with me for favor!' Bai Yu felt she could not leave the master's side even a step from now on."

"How long had she been away this time?"

"And now she has gained such a formidable rival for favor!"

"But the next moment, Bai Yu heard Bai Yuan's firm refusal: 'No, this sort of thing can only be resolved by yourself.'"

"Bai Yu felt a surge of emotion and relief in her heart."

"It seems the master still dotes on her the most."

"Because Bai Yuan has never refused her coquettishness."

"Bai Yu believed that if she acted coquettish and made the same request as Mu Junwu, Bai Yuan would surely agree to her, rather than flatly refuse as he does now."

"As for the fact that she had just acted coquettish to stay and listen, only to be harshly refused by Bai Yuan, Bai Yu has already forgotten it."

"All kinds of thoughts flickered in her heart, and Bai Yu immediately heard Mu Junwu's questioning voice toward Bai Yuan: 'Master, didn't you say before that one needs a mutually loving partner to resolve this? How can it work for me alone now?'"

"Bai Yu exclaimed, 'Well done!'"

"A disciple daring to question the master."

"And still want the master's favor?"

"Someone of that caliber still wants to compete for favor with her?"

"How could that be possible!"

"Bai Yu's gloomy mood vanished instantly, like overcast skies suddenly clearing to a cloudless blue, making one feel delighted in both body and mind."

"But the next moment, Bai Yu heard her own master speak gently to Mu Junwu: 'Rest assured, I will not deceive you; this method will definitely solve your bodily problem.'"

"'All right...' Wood Body still seemed unconvinced."

"At this moment, Bai Yu only felt that the sky was about to fall."

"Facing someone who questions the master, he doesn't even get angry?"

"And still comforts her so gently?"

Facing the distrust shown by Mu Junwu.

Bai Yuan actually didn't react either?

Bai Yu suddenly felt sour again.

She couldn't help but stomp her foot hard and say: "I really want to see what shameful things Master taught you, that you have to hide and do."

Watching Mu Junwu's departing back, Bai Yu noted the direction, she exerted all her effort to conceal her aura, striving not to let her master notice, and rushed toward the direction where Mu's body was leaving.

Now Bai Yu has already reached mid-Foundation Establishment; although in terms of strength, she can at most match one of Mu Junwu's five bodies, but concealing her aura so they don't notice is still easy.
