Chapter 251 - Just Take What You Want
At this moment, Tuoba Qiyue felt a wave of pleasure.
Yes, this was the sensation.
Interlocking fingers with junior brother felt like a whole new level of clarity. Inspiration surged continuously in her mind.
It truly gave a feeling of irresistible craving.
The reason Tuoba Qiyue closed her eyes right away was to prevent Ye Yu and Hongluan from noticing anything.
As for repairing Lin Miaoxue’s soul, it was not a particularly difficult task for her. Just a bit of effort was needed.
However, Tuoba Qiyue didn’t find it troublesome at all. As long as she could interlock fingers with junior brother, even if she had to sit here for ten days and nights, what would it matter?
Regarding repairing the soul, Ye Yu really didn’t understand.
But Hongluan did!
What kind of nonsense is this, holding hands as if it’s actually helping? It’s clear that Tuoba Qiyue was just indulging in her own desires.
Who would have thought that her newly accepted disciple would be so lovable.
Honestly, if it weren’t for the Saintess Yun Roumu, internal marriage within the Wuzhi Peak wouldn’t be out of the question!
Both Tuoba Qiyue and Xie Muling were quite suitable!
Hongluan slightly raised her head and looked toward a large boulder in the distance.
Behind that boulder, the white-haired Xie Muling was practically grinding her teeth to dust!
Too much!
Absolutely too much!
Tuoba actually dared to use her position to steal from within, holding hands with Ye Yu at every chance she got.
As the senior sister, do you really have no sense of basic propriety?
Just wait, you wait for me.
Moments later, all the cracks in Lin Miaoxue’s soul had been repaired.
Then, her soul reentered the body.
Tuoba Qiyue also slowly exhaled a deep breath. She opened her eyes and gently said, “For now, everything is stable.”
Hearing this, Ye Yu hurriedly asked, “Stabilized? Why only for now? Oh, and there’s something I forgot to mention. After her soul was damaged, she seems to have lost some memories. What’s the deal with that?”
“Her soul was damaged too severely; losing some memories is normal. I’ve stabilized her condition for now. But to completely repair the soul and restore the memories, we’ll need the Heavenly Soul Fruit.”
As she said this, a flicker of resistance crossed Tuoba Qiyue’s eyes.
Ye Yu didn’t notice this. Instead, he continued asking, “Senior Sister, where can we find the Heavenly Soul Fruit?”
“Or we can buy it! Don’t worry about the spiritual stones, I have plenty!”
When she heard that last sentence, Master Hongluan became a bit restless. Her gaze toward Ye Yu changed once again.
It seemed that her ‘convenient’ disciple really did have quite a lot of spirit stones.
After just throwing out a thousand high-grade spirit stones, he could still speak so confidently.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Does he really have that many?
Looks like after losing them all, I’ll have to come back crying to him again. Maybe I’ll hit the jackpot and score another pile of spirit stones!
Tuoba Qiyue slowly said, “It’s not hard to get the Heavenly Soul Fruit. My family has one. You just need to come with me to get it!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu let out a long sigh of relief, and repeatedly thanked her.
Then he suddenly noticed that Tuoba Qiyue still hadn’t let go of his hand. In front of Master Hongluan, their fingers were still interlocked, like a love-struck couple.
This made Ye Yu feel somewhat uneasy.
He wanted to pull away, but found that Tuoba Qiyue was holding on very tightly.
So, Ye Yu softly said, “Senior Sister, about the hands…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Tuoba Qiyue feigned a look of grievance and said, “What, do you also want to be the heartless person from the book?”
“I just helped you, and you want to let go so soon? Do you know how much spiritual energy I expended just now? Isn’t holding hands to give a bit of warmth acceptable?”
The fatal question caught Ye Yu off guard.
For a moment, he was quite embarrassed.
Strictly speaking, Lin Miaoxue’s soul repairing was entirely thanks to Tuoba Qiyue, and they still needed to get the Heavenly Soul Fruit later.
In terms of feelings and reason, he should indeed thank Tuoba Qiyue properly.
But the scene of their interlocked fingers was somewhat…
Forget it.
If she wants to hold on, then let her. After all, Senior Sister’s small hand is soft and delicate, with a very pleasant feel.
It’s not a big deal!
“You’re right, Senior Sister. It’s my fault for wanting to let go. You can hold on for as long as you like.”
Seeing that Ye Yu had stopped resisting, Tuoba Qiyue’s lips curled into a beautiful smile.
Afterward, she no longer teased him deliberately.
Instead, she led Ye Yu away, leaving the Wuzhi Peak, heading east.
After they left, Xie Muling, who had been hiding behind the boulder, couldn’t hold it in anymore.
She immediately appeared and quickly walked over to Hongluan’s side, saying in a deep voice, “Master, aren’t you going to do anything about this? Senior Sister isn’t showing any restraint at all.”
“Just like that, holding hands with junior brother. If others saw this scene, how inappropriate would it be?”
Compared to Xie Muling’s urgency, Hongluan appeared very calm.
She leisurely took a sip from her wine gourd, then softly said, “The people of Wuzhi Peak have their own ways. Why bother with others’ opinions?”
“How many people advised me against accepting you? Yet I still went against the tide and took you in as disciples.”
Xie Muling snorted coldly, but she had no words to counter.
Indeed, Hongluan’s methods and style were beyond the understanding of ordinary people, and she had never cared about anyone’s gaze.
When she wanted to do something, no one could stop her. When she didn’t want to do something, no one dared to force her.
But Xie Muling couldn’t get over Tuoba Qiyue’s behavior of guarding the treasure and then stealing it herself!
Junior brother should rightfully belong to her.
Moreover—since Tuoba Qiyue had already taken the initiative, why couldn’t everyone enjoy it together? Why couldn’t she have a moment of closeness too?
Selfishly taking it all for herself was indeed intolerable!
Xie Muling grew angrier the more she thought about it, and stomped her foot in place.
Seeing her like this, Hongluan couldn’t help but laugh as she gently rubbed Xie Muling’s smooth white hair with one hand, saying, “Alright, stop being angry. I’ve heard about what you did to Ye Yu before. You were too hasty. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so wary of you.”
“But, Master, you know, I really couldn’t help it!”
Xie Muling’s voice was low, filled with displeasure.
Hongluan’s smile deepened, “Well then, focus on cultivating. And if you can’t hold back, just take what you want!”
These words seemed to open a window for Xie Muling.
Her previous gloom vanished as she nodded vigorously.
After Xie Muling left, the sect master of Azure Cloud Sect, Luo Ze, arrived at the scene.
It turned out he had come with a determined mindset, ready to face death. He intended to wake Hongluan from her drunken state.
But unexpectedly, the senior sister who had been drunk earlier in the day was now awake.
Turning around, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman lying on a boulder beside her, one he had never seen before.
Curiously, he asked, “Senior Sister, who is this?”
Hongluan replied casually, “Why worry about that? Just tell me, what trouble has brought you here this time?”
Such a straightforward manner of communication made Luo Ze a bit uncomfortable.
But some matters couldn’t be hidden.
So, Luo Ze quickly said, “Senior Sister, it’s bad news. Ye Yu has been captured by the demon Lin Fengyuan!”
