Chapter 68: Ren Yidao! I really misjudged you!

"Let me tell you, there is a Zuixian Small Pavilion in Chongzhou City..."

"Eh? I know this one, it's a branch of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion; their Beiqian General Pavilion is right in Wentian City..."

"I also like the calligraphy and paintings of Fairy Liang Wen, but I have only seen them from afar during exhibitions."

"I know her; I can get you a piece of calligraphy if there's a chance."

"That's great, thank you, Junior Sister—"

……

The conversation in the boudoir was exceptionally harmonious; the two young girls hit it off immediately, feeling as though they had met too late!

The two girls chatted about everything under the sun, from the historical sites of Wentian to the cultural customs of Chongzhou City, and from the extravagance of the nobility to the daily lives of the common people.

By the time late night arrived, both were still in high spirits, wishing they could swear an oath of sisterhood right then and there.

Although they were, in fact, already senior and junior sisters.

"Right, right!"

Her cheeks were flushed with excitement, Yu Yu's large eyes were sparkling, and she lowered her voice mysteriously:

"Junior Sister, I'll tell this secret only to you—don't go to Senior Sister Jing's residence easily! Especially at night!"

Hm!?

There's a story here!

Li Lingling keenly sensed that there was a story, leaned in, and also lowered her voice:

"Why? Are there any taboos?"

Is it that Senior Sister Jing doesn't like being disturbed, or is there some hidden secret inside?

Curious, curious!

"The reason? Uh... intuition?"

Although she didn't know why, Yu Yu's intuition told her not to go over there; there would be danger!

If she went there, her head would hurt!

That sensation of pain was quite real, just as if she had truly been struck by a club.

But how could that be possible!?

This is Luoyue Peak, everyone here is a very good person; who would hurt such a cute fish?

It must be my imagination!

"Eh?"

Li Lingling had calculated everything, but she never calculated that Yu Yu would tell her such a childish reason.

"It's true! Don't disbelieve me, my intuition is very accurate!"

Seeing that her Junior Sister was somewhat skeptical, Yu Yu grew anxious and gestured wildly to bolster her point.

"My intuition for danger is very accurate now!"

Don't look at her outward disbelief; Li Lingling actually already half-believed it in her heart.

Yu Yu was a rare person of utmost purity and kindness; for someone with such an innocent heart to possess this special ability to seek good fortune and avoid disaster was not strange at all.

There was one more point: Li Lingling's Qi Gazing Technique couldn't quite see through Yu Yu's fate.

She could only vaguely discern a very faint Dragon Qi on Yu Yu's body...

This was another reason why Li Lingling naturally felt close to Yu Yu; she suspected the other party had some blood relation to her.

Could it be the Emperor? Or some Imperial Uncle, or even a seed left behind by an Imperial Grand-Uncle in his early years? Or perhaps they were descendants of some unknown generation?

No matter which one it was, it would not affect her status.

Although she had restrained herself from thinking in such a joy-killing way, the habits formed over many years were still hard to change for the moment.

"Alright, alright, I believe you, I believe you, is that enough?"

Although Yu Yu was nominally the Senior Sister, after this night of interaction, Li Lingling had already placed herself in the position of the senior sister.

This child is too simple; I must protect her well so she isn't deceived by outsiders!

Must protect our side's Yu-Yu.

"Thank you for being willing to believe me, ha~"

After saying this, Yu Yu yawned, rubbed her eyes, and slowly stood up.

"I'm a bit sleepy, shall we continue tomorrow?"

"Alright, I'll see you out."

"No need, no need, you should go to sleep early too."

Waving goodbye to Li Lingling, Yu Yu wandered off toward her own residence in a daze.

Ever since the day she met Ren Yidao and the others, she was no longer afraid of the dark.

Although she didn't know the reason, the darkness of night had already changed into a different appearance in Yu Yu's eyes.

Although it was slightly darker than during the day, the degree of darkness was very limited.

"Goodnight, Senior Sister Yu."

Watching Yu Yu leave with lingering reluctance, Li Lingling's room returned to silence once more.

After the bustle, loneliness would eventually arrive.

But this time, she felt that her life in the Divine Path Sect was something she looked forward to even more.

"She really is a good person."

"Yes, Yu Yu is a good child."

Who!!?

Again!?

Once again being forced into the side by someone without warning, Li Lingling's spirit was on the verge of collapse.

Just as she was about to twist her body and kick, a large hand pressed down on her shoulder, directly dissipating her strength.

"Don't be agitated, it's me."

The gentle voice seemed to possess a special ability, allowing Li Lingling's taut spirit to gradually settle down.

"Is it Senior Brother Ren?"

"Mm, it's me."

The person beside her had no intention of hiding their identity either; they stepped out from the shadows and smiled gently at her.

"Coming at this time, does Senior Brother have some important matter?"

Compared to the harmless Yu Yu, Li Lingling was much more cautious regarding Ren Yidao's arrival.

Although he was a Senior Brother, Ren Yidao was also a man, and a man whose strength was far greater than her own.

For such a person to visit in the middle of the night, for a young girl who had yet to be married off, was not a good thing.

"Don't be nervous, I have actually been here for a long time."

Hm?

Hm???

Her eyes gradually widened, and Li Lingling's face slowly flushed with shame and anger.

"You eavesdropped on our conversation!?"

"No, I did not eavesdrop; I can guarantee you that much."

I really didn't eavesdrop; I was standing here openly and honestly, it was you who didn't discover me.

Therefore, I, Ren Yidao, did not lie!

It is your problem!!!

Squinting as she looked at Ren Yidao's calm expression, Li Lingling was half-believing and half-doubting, but in the end, she chose to ignore it.

"Then what is Senior Brother's business?"

His smile gradually faded, and Ren Yidao took a step closer to Li Lingling, speaking softly:

"I am here for you."

!!!

His voice was gentle and mellow, like a stream of sweet spring water passing from her eardrum into the girl's heart.

Thump-thump!

"Wait a moment, you!"

Subconsciously wanting to retreat, Li Lingling felt that the current atmosphere was very wrong.

But before she could escape, her wrist was gently grabbed.

"Impertinent! Let go of me!"

Her expression changed, and Li Lingling glared at the serious-looking Senior Brother Ren, preparing to struggle free...

Crack!

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a sharp pain from her leg left Li Lingling no time to think; she reflexively raised her leg and kicked directly toward Ren Yidao's chest!

"You! You lecher!"

Before being kicked, Ren Yidao had already gracefully retreated; his chest was only lightly brushed by the sole of her shoe, and he suffered no harm.

"Ren Yidao, I never expected you to be such a person! I really misjudged you!"

Facing Junior Sister Li, who was glaring at him like a tigress, he was not flustered in the slightest.

Are you finished?

Good, it is time for me to start my performance.

He pointed unhurriedly at Li Lingling's right leg, and Ren Yidao asked with a smile:

"The leg, it doesn't hurt anymore, right?"

The leg?

"Don't talk about these other things, you... hm?"

Her tightly furrowed brow suddenly relaxed, and Li Lingling noticed one thing.

The foot she had just kicked out with was her right foot.

Hm!?

But her right foot was clearly supposed to have been injured earlier.

Could it be...

Li Lingling:!

Seeing that she had realized the problem, Ren Yidao half-squinted his eyes and spoke leisurely:

"When Yu Yu went out, I followed behind her to protect her; I was afraid she would get lost."

"Although this injury of yours doesn't do much damage to a Body Cultivator, if it isn't treated in time, the recovery will be very slow."

"Next time if there is such a situation again, don't force yourself, you know?"

Oh, naive young girl, what are you getting so excited about?

Don't you know?

I, Ren Yidao, am the kindest person in this Divine Path Sect.

You can always trust me, Ren Yidao!

Planning to change the book title to "This Fox Immortal Is Too Not Human."

After adjusting my mindset for a day, I have calmed down quite a bit.

Although I am speechless every time I see books far inferior to mine on the list getting three or four rounds of promotion, I have managed to calm myself down in the end.

Life must go on, and one must look forward.

I will continue to work hard, and I ask you all to lend me a hand once again!

Mwah, mwah, mwah!
