Chapter 290

If anyone were to come here at this moment, they would generally think of the great poet Li Taibai's "Midnight Wu Song · Autumn Song."

The poem contains a line: Over Chang'an a piece of moon, ten thousand households the sound of pounding clothes.

If one could swap the sun in the sky for the moon, and replace Yanxia City with Chang'an, this line would be perfectly fitting.

The sunlight gradually slanted westward; the autumn afternoon sun was a fiery red, like a girl of marriageable age whose heart had just awakened to love, her cheeks blushing from time to time.

A gust of wind blew past, and it seemed as if it had seen something, shyly hiding half its face behind the clouds.

If someone looked down from above, they would see, among the green rippling thickets of grass, a delicate jade foot stretching out.

The tender sole was flawless and white, while the five rounded toes were tightly curled together.

When the wind was strong, that pristine jade foot would sway gently like willow catkins.

Drifting weakly, utterly beyond control, it could only follow the wind left and right.

Suddenly, another slender, soft hand reached out, fingers like green scallions, each one immaculate and fair.

Yet at this moment it seemed somewhat uneasy, stretching out or curling up from time to time, then tightly gripping a few blades of grass, pulling hard at them... up.

321 Schemed everything but was too clever, lost his own Yin Yin Susu

After an unknown length of time, the wind died down and all was still.

Jiang Sishui held the jade-like beauty tightly in his arms, quietly savoring the tender moment.

After a while, he suddenly asked, "Who are you?"

Who are you!

The moment these three words came out, he could clearly feel the woman in his arms stiffen.

Jiang Sishui narrowed his eyes slightly.

In fact, although he had mistaken her identity at first, he realized it very quickly; he had simply gone along with the mistake at the time because the arrow was already on the bowstring.

It had to be said, in a situation where he didn't know the other party's identity, it really did have a certain thrill to it.

Now that the main business was finished, of course he had to ask clearly: who exactly was this woman who had shared the intimate bond of husband and wife with him?

Lowering his head to look, the woman in his arms—who looked exactly like Miss Xuejuan—had a tear-streaked pretty face that was now deathly pale.

Her eyes were bloodshot, her gaze incomparably complex, revealing despair, self-reproach, regret, guilt, bewilderment, "four-three-seven," and sorrow.

And upon hearing Jiang Sishui's question, she pressed her lips tightly together, saying nothing.

Clearly, her identity was very special, a secret that could not be spoken. And having a relationship with Jiang Sishui was something she had never anticipated.

Jiang Sishui could tell that for things to develop to this point was absolutely not what she had wanted.

But he had no intention of letting this woman go, nor did he regret doing such a thing to her.

Because so much time had passed without the Tu sisters coming to find him, and connecting this with everything before, he had already realized—this woman was scheming against him!

Although he didn't know her purpose in doing so, courtesy demands reciprocity, and Jiang Sishui wouldn't be polite with her either.

He simply took advantage of the situation and devoured this sugar-coated layer!

No matter the outcome, he would only profit and never lose.

Seeing the woman's stance of refusing to be forthcoming, Jiang Sishui smiled lightly.

Hearing the laugh, the woman suddenly realized something, and panic seized her heart.

Abruptly, her eyes went wide, and she cried out in a trembling voice, "No... mmph!"

……

Half an hour later, the woman was already limp as mud.

Jiang Sishui's eyes flickered, and he murmured, "So you're actually the Ming Cult's Yin Yin Susu."

Yin Yin Susu let out a faint, listless moan.

Her head was dizzy and muddled, yet her heart was filled with bitterness.

Back then, when reading the diary she learned that Zhang Wuji from "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" was so indecisive and soft-hearted, Yin Yin Susu wanted to take Zhang Wuji away.

She didn't dare leave Zhang Wuji at the Wudang Sect, because she feared Zhang Wuji would be taught into a pedantic, rigid gentleman.

However, there were many experts on Mount Wudang, and despite Yin Yin Susu's thousand and one schemes, when the plan was carried out, she was still discovered.

She was stopped.

Zhang Cuishan even came in person, and upon learning that Yin Yin Susu wanted to take their son to the Ming Cult, he firmly refused.

Yin Yin Susu had a huge argument with Zhang Cuishan over this.

In the end, she still couldn't take Zhang Wuji away, and descended Mount Wudang alone in a fury.

Just as she was at a loss, not knowing where to go, Jiang Sishui revealed in his diary that in an ancient tomb in Pingyao, Jinzhou, there might be two peerless martial arts: "Buddha's Palm" and "Heavenly Broken Foot."

Yin Yin Susu was immediately tempted, and set off for Pingyao to see if she could find these two martial arts before Jiang Sishui.

Traveling day and night, she indeed arrived one step ahead.

However, Pingyao was not a small place, and she was a stranger there with no local connections—finding a hidden ancient tomb was easier said than done.

So every day that followed, she spent in disappointment.

Finally, Jiang Sishui arrived in Jinzhou.

At this point, she learned that the secret manuals had long been taken out, and her plan had fallen through.

Although Yin Yin Susu was helpless, she had to give up, because she wouldn't dare appear before Jiang Sishui.

As for her son Zhang Wuji?

Forget it, let him just learn the Wudang Sect's martial arts.

Just as she was thinking this, Jiang Sishui once again revealed in his diary that "Buddha's Palm" and "Heavenly Broken Foot" were martial arts divine abilities superior to the Heavenly Art!

Martial arts divine abilities!

These four words firmly seized Yin Yin Susu's heartstrings, dispelling her thought of immediately leaving Jinzhou.

Especially since Jiang Sishui made no attempt to hide his fondness for "Heavenly Broken Foot," giving Yin Yin Susu a deeper understanding of how terrifying martial arts divine abilities were.

The more she learned, the more her heart yearned.

If Zhang Wuji could obtain a martial Dao divine ability, his future would be boundless!

Let alone a Celestial Being, even a Demigod would not be impossible!

Therefore, unable to resist the temptation, Yin Yin Susu came to Yanxia City to wait for an opportunity.

Just as she was pondering how to obtain a martial Dao divine ability from Jiang Sishui without paying any price, something happened—

Someone mistook her for the second young lady of Yanxia Shanzhuang, Tu Xuejuan!

Yin Yin Susu was startled, but upon closer inquiry, she discovered that she actually looked exactly like Tu Xuejuan.

Afterwards, through a diary, Yin Yin Susu also learned that Tu Xuejuan had already become Jiang Sishui's woman...

Thus, a plan was born in her mind.

And the inspiration for this plan came from the encounter of Miss Nangong in "Horizon, Bright Moon, Blade."

Miss Nangong mistook Yan Nanfei for Ye Kai and lost her chastity—so could she also pull a switch, disguise herself as Tu Xuejuan, and obtain the "Heavenly Broken Foot" manual from Jiang Sishui?

Once she got her hands on it, she would leave Jinzhou immediately.

Once this idea sprouted, it could no longer be driven from her mind.

Yin Yin Susu thought it over and felt that although the plan carried the risk of exposure, if handled properly, given Jiang Sishui's affection for his women, there was still a considerable chance of success.

In the end, tempted by the martial Dao divine ability, Yin Yin Susu decided to take a gamble.

As for what Jiang Sishui said—that the "Heavenly Broken Foot" had the drawback of affecting one's mind—that didn't matter either.

At worst, after obtaining it, she could hand the manual to Zhang Sanfeng and let him improve it before teaching it to Zhang Wuji.

Given Zhang Sanfeng's talent, plus the possible possession of a "Ten Directions Annihilation" fragment, it was not impossible for him to accomplish this.

Of course, if possible, Yin Yin Susu actually wanted the "Tathagata Divine Palm" even more.

But the opportunity was fleeting; once Jiang Sishui left Yanxia Shanzhuang, her plan would no longer succeed.

Therefore, she could only settle for the next best thing and obtain the "Heavenly Broken Foot" first.

Thus, Yin Yin Susu infiltrated Yanxia Shanzhuang, secretly observing Tu Xuejuan while privately asking the maidservants about Tu Xuejuan's usual words and deeds, all the while waiting for a good opportunity.

Today, Jiang Sishui went to rescue Sun Biyun, finally giving her the chance she had been waiting for.

Yin Yin Susu first used the Disguise Art to impersonate a maidservant, luring the Tu sisters away from Yanxia Shanzhuang, then restored her true appearance and put on Tu Xuejuan's clothes.

This way, it would be very difficult for others to tell she was an impostor.

Afterwards, she deliberately revealed the news that she had gone to the back garden, using the maidservant as a mouthpiece to inform Jiang Sishui.

Once Jiang Sishui arrived, she could take advantage of the Tu sisters' absence to scheme for the "Heavenly Broken Foot" manual!

But Yin Yin Susu had schemed for everything, yet never expected Tu Xuejuan to have a peculiar habit.

The moment Jiang Sishui arrived, he sealed her acupoints.

Yin Yin Susu could neither move nor speak, and could only watch helplessly as the garments on her body fell off one by one, before being dragged into the abyss of desire…….
