Chapter 13: Good News from Xiaoyu

The following days passed as smoothly as ever.

The only possible difference was that there was an additional clingy little foodie at home who needed care.

Ning Xia clung to Lu Ke every single day, and her behavior grew increasingly unbridled.

At first, she merely ordered Lu Ke to prepare extra meals for her, massage her legs, and tell her bedtime stories.

However, after realizing she had completely mastered her senior brother’s weak spot—and that their master did not care at all—she dropped all restraint.

Eventually, she stopped acting altogether and brazenly moved straight into Lu Ke’s room.

Poor Lu Ke had to drag her sickly body every day to care for the basic needs of both the big one and the small one on Qingzhu Peak.

Not only was she exhausted after a full day of work, but at night, she also had to cater to the mischievous little devil, finding no peace at all.

Even her only bed was usurped, and she was ordered to squeeze onto the same bed with her junior sister to sleep.

Lu Ke’s bed was very small, making it quite difficult to fit two people.

To share a single blanket, the two were almost chest-to-back, their bodies pressed tightly against each other.

Fortunately, she was now in a female body, so there was no longer any need to maintain boundary rules between men and women with her junior sister.

After overcoming her initial discomfort, she actually grew accustomed to sleeping while hugging a little stove in her arms.

Her junior sister’s body was tiny and soft.

At first touch, it felt flat in front and behind, lacking any real substance, almost like holding a silicone doll.

Yet after getting used to it, rubbing her surprisingly had a unique charm of its own…

Truth be told, this mere minor-character junior sister was unexpectedly fragrant.

The strong, youthful fragrance on her body was like a bottle of rich Daughter Red wine.

It seemed ordinary at first sip, but its after-effects were immense, rendering one increasingly intoxicated with a lingering sweetness.

As for their increasingly intimate behavior, Ning Qingzhu somehow failed to notice anything unusual at all.

She merely assumed it was typical interaction between senior and junior disciples, a necessary dynamic to provide close care, impart experience, and win rankings for the competitor.

She came almost every day to inspect Ning Xia’s coursework.

Upon seeing that Ning Xia was indeed making rapid progress and even had a chance of placing high, she felt increasingly satisfied.

Consequently, she also found Lu Ke much more agreeable and stopped deliberately making things difficult for her.

But when had Lu Ke ever given Ning Xia even a single bit of coursework guidance?!

If one had to say she imparted any experience to her junior sister, it would be better described as imparting ample nourishment.

She fed the child so well that she gained twenty pounds in a single week!

Even Lu Ke began to feel she could barely lift her!

Days passed peacefully like this.

After a period of recovery, Lu Ke’s body gradually restored itself.

Although her cultivation realm remained stuck at the early stage of Foundation Establishment and her internal spiritual energy was empty—to the point where she could not cast any spells—at least her movements were somewhat freer.

For Ning Xia, this was also the happiest time in her entire memory!

Unfortunately, good times never last.

As a seeded contestant, she carried high expectations on her shoulders and still had much to learn.

Once Ning Qingzhu judged that she had learned enough experience from Lu Ke, she decisively drove her off to the next location for training.

Poor Ning Xia, her tiny body carrying a small bundle, turned her head every three steps with tears in her eyes.

She truly could not bear to leave the blissful life on Qingzhu Peak, where food was served to her mouth, clothes were brought to her hands, and she could boss her senior brother around every day!

However, there was no choice; at present, she held an even more important mission.

“Senior Brother, wait for me!”

“Once I make a name for myself in the sect evaluation, I will return to marry you!”

Holding such a resolute thought, she never turned back again, rising into the air and flying off with determination, her figure gradually fading into an invisible, tiny star on the horizon.

Ning Qingzhu waved her hand, gazing at her departing disciple with deep emotion in her heart:

“What a sensible child! Truly, my pains were not in vain.”

Meanwhile, Lu Ke simply felt thrilled to death, thinking, “Finally dumped this little burden!~”

One peak, three master and disciples, each holding their own thoughts.

After seeing Ning Xia off, Ning Qingzhu turned around.

She instantly caught sight of Lu Ke, who was secretly smirking with the corners of her mouth barely held down.

Her eyebrows instantly furrowed as she put on a cold face:

“Lu Ke, what are you so happy about?”

“N-Nothing…”

Lu Ke’s small face straightened immediately, losing all smile.

“Hmph~”

Seeing this, Ning Qingzhu subconsciously snorted coldly.

For some reason, after Ning Xia left, she found Lu Ke increasingly in the way, feeling bothered by her no matter where she looked!

“Are there no chores left to do on the peak? Waving your hands around here just to slack off?”

Ning Qingzhu rolled her eyes, making no effort to hide the disgust in her eyes. “When will you ever be as sensible as Xia’er and focus more on proper matters?!”

“All day long, doing nothing but making me unhappy!”

“Ah, yes, yes, yes. Ah, right, right, right…”

Lu Ke had long learned not to argue with her.

Muttering perfunctory responses, she bowed, nodded, and smiled as she took her leave.

Why bother arguing with a woman?

Regardless of how much she did, the woman would never see it nor care.

Out of sight, out of mind!

Lu Ke walked straight back to her room, intending to properly clean up the space that had been left in a complete mess by the little devil.

In the next instant, however, she was surprised to discover that an enchanting young girl was already sitting upon her bed.

“You’re back?”

The loli immortal wrinkled her small nose, resting only a small fraction of her bottom on the edge of the bed.

Her fair, soft, small feet were raised high, revealing reddish soles and slightly curved arches.

They swung gently back and forth like small boats, suspended three feet off the ground.

She waved her small hand as if driving away something invisible, making no attempt to hide the disgust in her eyes: “Smells like the milk-stink of an unweaned green girl… how unpleasant!”

“You came so fast?!”

Facing the girl’s ghostly appearances and disappearances, Lu Ke could hardly conceal her inner surprise.

Her junior sister had left just a moment ago, and she came right in afterward.

Furthermore, she slipped in right under Ning Qingzhu’s nose?

Did she truly treat Qingzhu Peak like a public toilet, coming and going whenever she pleased?!

“Wait, that’s not right?”

A second later, Lu Ke seemed to realize something with delayed awareness.

Even if Bai Xiaoyu’s movement technique was divine enough to sneak onto Qingzhu Peak silently without being noticed by anyone, her timing could never be this coincidental, almost perfectly timed!

A bold guess formed in her mind: “Are you spying on me?”

“My, my~ What do you mean by spying? That sounds so unpleasant~”

“I was merely caring about you~”

Meeting Lu Ke’s questioning gaze, Bai Xiaoyu gave an embarrassed laugh.

Ignoring her previous disgust, her pink toes lightly tapped the floor as she stepped forward and gently tugged on Lu Ke’s arm.

“Don’t dwell on these irrelevant things. I came here because I have an important matter to deliver to you. The cultivation method you were looking for has a lead~”

“Is that true?”

Lu Ke’s attention was successfully diverted by her.

Upon hearing this, she hurriedly pulled over two chairs and invited the loli immortal to sit down with utmost respect.

“Um…” Lu Ke rubbed her hands together somewhat shyly, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, unable to hide her expectation. “Xiaoyu, have you truly found the cultivation method left behind by the Matriarch…”

It was not that she doubted Bai Xiaoyu.

It was just that the figure was a legendary person who had founded the sect and successfully ascended.

So much time had passed, across a thousand years, that she had actually not held a single shred of hope from the start.

“Of course~”

Bai Xiaoyu patted her chest and smiled with confidence. “I am Bai Xiaoyu. Within the Hundred Flowers Sect, there is nothing I cannot handle~”

“Th-Thank you, Xiaoyu.”

Although she did not yet know the authenticity of the cultivation method, Lu Ke still thanked her earnestly.

Senior Xiaoyu was not only her savior, but she was also powerful, gentle, and reliable.

She was always so invested in Lu Ke’s affairs without expecting anything in return…

She was truly such a good woman.

What could Lu Ke possibly do to repay her…

For some reason, Lu Ke suddenly felt her cheeks burning.

She did not quite dare to look directly into the sparkling red eyes of the cute loli immortal before her, which shone like gemstones.

Yet this shy appearance of hers looked increasingly pleasing in Bai Xiaoyu’s eyes, filling her with even greater delight.

She could not resist leaning her small head forward.

With lightning speed, she swiftly pressed her cherry lips against those plump, juicy red lips.

“Mwah~”

A crisp sound echoed through the room.

Lu Ke was stunned, her mind going completely blank.

In an instant, she felt her entire body go rigid, unable to move at all.

She could only watch blankly as the strand of silver stretched longer and longer.

“Ahem.”

Bai Xiaoyu withdrew her lips with satisfaction.

Seeing Lu Ke’s utterly incredulous, dazed expression, she immediately laughed it off without explaining anything, decisively taking Lu Ke’s hand instead.

“Little darling, time is of the essence. I will take you to see the Scripture Master right now. Don’t keep them waiting long~”

“Eh? Ehhhh?”

Without giving Lu Ke any time to react, Bai Xiaoyu took off running!

Taking advantage and immediately running away—how thrilling!
