“Then should I go back to Xiaozhu Peak with you now? Or do we need to go somewhere first before going back?”
You Yuelan said expectantly.
She really couldn’t wait to go to Xiaozhu Peak with Lin Huanhuan.
Because only then, when the other black-clothed people later asked about her desertion, she could argue:
“I originally wanted to join the fight, but I ran into Lin Huanhuan on the way and she dragged me away. What could I do?”
This was the task given to her by the black-clothed leader.
According to the instructions from Chaos Demon Mountain, this external mission was under the full command of the black-clothed leader.
Although feigning death wasn’t a big deal, since she was already familiar with it.
But being able to find an excuse to brush it off was also good, to prevent other black-clothed people from holding a grudge and screwing her over next time.
And most importantly, she liked this task.
It didn’t require hard thinking or action, and she could get a comfortable and perfect pillow. Why not?
Hearing this, Lin Huanhuan raised her eyes and glanced at her, her heart truly mixed, not knowing what to say.
‘If I refuse, given that You Yuelan has already sensed something wrong, she’ll most likely detect the anomaly and become extremely curious about me.’
‘If I’m not mistaken, the reason Ye Jinxi is pestering me now is precisely because she’s extremely curious about my abnormal behavior.’
‘As the saying goes, curiosity is the first step to a woman’s downfall. It’s not wrong.’
‘No matter what, I cannot add another female protagonist who keeps pestering me. That would truly be the end.’
‘It seems I have no choice but to agree for now, and figure something out after returning.’
Thinking this, Lin Huanhuan, who was originally optimistic about everything, couldn’t help but feel a bit lost about the road ahead.
Letting out a soft sigh, she finally said:
“No need. Let’s go back now.”
“Mm-hmm, let’s go now.”
You Yuelan smiled and asked innocently:
“Then on the way back, do you need to bully me?”
“Didn’t you say before that if you don’t bully me for a day, you feel uncomfortable all over?”
“You haven’t bullied me for a whole month now. You must be feeling terrible, right? You definitely need to make up for it, don’t you?”
“It’s okay, my body can still take it. You can bully me as much as you want.”
You Yuelan’s voice was full of concern, as if she was really worried about Lin Huanhuan’s physical condition.
Hearing this, Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but grit her teeth again.
‘Damn it, if I had known, I wouldn’t have used this trick to bully her back then.’
‘I should have used the perverse method from the original work, tied her up in a secluded corner, slipped my hand into her clothes and did as I pleased. Let’s see if she still dares to be so cocky.’
Lin Huanhuan angrily thought to herself.
But then she had a second thought and felt that wasn’t quite appropriate.
‘You Yuelan is clearly different from the original work now.’
‘If I had bullied her that way back then, wouldn’t she have come to me just as she does now, and the method of bullying would also be the same as in the original work?’
‘That would be a huge problem…’
‘Forget it, it’s fine as it is now.’
Lin Huanhuan was completely out of ideas.
“No, we’ll be seen on the way back.”
“I don’t like being seen while bullying others, so let’s forget it.”
“How can that be? Well, fine.”
“Then after we get back to Xiaozhu Peak, can you bully me as you please?”
Walking on the mountain path, Lin Huanhuan stumbled, almost falling flat on her face.
She turned back and glared at You Yuelan.
But seeing You Yuelan looking at her with innocent eyes, she felt embarrassed and could only turn her head away in displeasure.
She directly ignored that kind of request.
‘Why do I feel like I’ve forgotten something?’
‘But it’s probably not that important. Forget it, when it’s time to remember, I’ll remember.’
On the other side, the group of black-clothed people who were beaten unconscious by Bai Lingfeng were just slowly waking up.
“Damn it, how can that Bai Lingfeng fight so well?”
“All six of us went at him, not only did we not beat him, we couldn’t even seriously injure him. Is he a monster?”
“His techniques and martial skills all felt ordinary level.”
“This should be a true prodigy. How could a prodigy of this level not have a Core Formation elder take him as a disciple?”
“Are all the elders and the sect leader of Lingyun Sect blind?”
“Wait, have you seen You Yuelan? She didn’t come again, did she?”
“Where the hell did she go? Even if she doesn’t come to help fight, she could at least take care of us. What if someone killed us while we were unconscious?”
…
“Miss, welcome back. You brought another guest, that’s really nice.”
When Dong Yuner saw clearly who was following Lin Huanhuan, she nearly ground her molars to dust.
‘Damn it, why did Miss bring this woman back?’
‘Is she really planning to replace me? Or is she preparing to start a harem in advance?’
‘But Miss never mentioned this to me before.’
‘I’ve been waiting for Miss to tell me that she’s actually having an affair with You Yuelan.’
‘But not only did she not tell me, now she’s even brought that lazy fox spirit back. What does she mean by this?!’
Although a huge storm was raging in her heart, and her jealousy jar was completely overturned.
But Dong Yuner still tried her best to maintain a calm exterior, showing a composed demeanor.
‘Miss doesn’t know that I’ve already found out the truth.’
‘If I don’t want to be exposed, I’d better continue to endure.’
‘Only then can I gather more valuable information.’
‘Forget it, I’ll bear it…’
It wasn’t until they stepped into Xiaozhu Peak and smelled the fragrance of the cloud bamboo that Lin Huanhuan suddenly realized:
‘Yuner is still on Xiaozhu Peak!’
‘How annoying!’
‘Why, why, why are there so many problems?’
Although Lin Huanhuan’s heart was already full of regret, the arrow was already nocked and had to be fired.
Helpless, she could only steel herself and bring You Yuelan back.
The only thing that made her feel fortunate now was that Dong Yuner didn’t know You Yuelan was her new target.
Dong Yuner was probably still wondering why she suddenly brought a woman back.
Otherwise, she really wouldn’t know how to handle it.
Lin Huanhuan secretly observed Dong Yuner’s face from the corner of her eye.
She found that although Dong Yuner had a clearly displeased smile on her face, there was no murderous aura.
Only then did she breathe a slight sigh of relief.
She deliberated briefly and said:
“Yuner, this is Junior Sister You Yuelan. She just joined the sect not long ago. She’s kind of a friend of mine.”
“I brought her here mainly because I need her help with something tonight. Don’t misunderstand.”
“The two of you can get to know each other. Don’t have any major conflicts.”
