Chapter 121: Master, You Are Boring, Frivolous, and Shameless!

You stopped specifically just to say this?

Hearing from Nan Feixue’s mouth that the person Meng Yingxing dreamed of yesterday was herself, Xiu Qingcheng didn’t seem to have any superfluous expression on her face. She waved her hand pretending to be polite, watching Ying Ruci take the bound Nan Feixue away.

After Nan Feixue and Ying Ruci left, only Xiu Qingcheng and Meng Yingxing remained in the alley at this moment.

Xiu Qingcheng still faced the direction they had left, a faint smile on her face.

Behind her, Meng Yingxing lowered his head, his eyes obscured by the hair hanging from his forehead, making it impossible to see his current expression.

Only Meng Yingxing himself knew what kind of earth-shattering tsunami was surging in his heart right now.

Clearly, he had glossed over the matter of the dream with Xiu Qingcheng; even if beaten to death, he couldn’t have imagined that Nan Feixue would expose it completely without reservation!

The atmosphere suddenly became silent, even gradually solidifying.

Solidifying along with the atmosphere was the fake smile on Xiu Qingcheng’s face.

Wait, hold on a second?

What did Nan Feixue just say?

Xiu Qingcheng reacted belatedly, sorting through the two sentences Nan Feixue had just said in her mind again.

First, Meng Yingxing had a dream last night because Nan Feixue cast something called “Dream of a Spring Night” on him.

Second, the effect of “Dream of a Spring Night” is to make people dream of the best-looking person they have seen.

Third, undoubtedly, she was the best-looking person Meng Yingxing had seen so far, so the person Meng Yingxing dreamed of last night… was her.

The fake smile Xiu Qingcheng maintained on her face suddenly cracked.

Even though, as a former man, she understood Meng Yingxing’s feelings about having such a dream last night very well, learning that the object of Meng Yingxing’s dream was herself made Xiu Qingcheng feel a shockwave.

It was like a good bro suddenly saying to you, “Hey buddy, I dreamed of you last night, you were great!”

Xiu Qingcheng silently turned around, staring expressionlessly at Meng Yingxing behind her.

“Disciple.”

Hearing Xiu Qingcheng call him, Meng Yingxing raised his head, looking at Xiu Qingcheng’s forehead with some trepidation in his heart.

Xiu Qingcheng’s gaze locked firmly onto Meng Yingxing, and she asked with a somewhat heavy tone:

“Tell the truth. The person you dreamed of yesterday wasn’t Nan Feixue, but me, right?”

Meng Yingxing remained silent for a long while before nodding his head incredibly heavily.

“Yes.”

Hearing this answer personally from her disciple’s mouth, Xiu Qingcheng couldn’t help but close her eyes, slowly taking a deep breath.

Thinking this matter disgusted his master, Meng Yingxing immediately knelt down towards Xiu Qingcheng.

His knees hit the ground heavily, making a crisp, audible thud.

“Disciple knows his crimes deserve ten thousand deaths, to have done such treasonous and immoral things to Master in a dream. I beg Master for punishment!”

Wait a minute!?

Xiu Qingcheng opened her eyes, thinking she hadn’t even said anything yet; why did Meng Yingxing kneel down so consciously!?

“I beg Master for punishment!”

Meng Yingxing knelt on both knees in a standard posture; seeing Xiu Qingcheng silent for a long time, he specifically repeated his words.

Suddenly preempted by Meng Yingxing’s action, Xiu Qingcheng took half a step back, momentarily not knowing what to do.

Sometimes, having a disciple who was too self-disciplined wasn’t necessarily a good thing.

Actually, Xiu Qingcheng had thought about it carefully just now and felt this matter wasn’t really a big problem.

Which young boy doesn’t yearn for love!

Having been a man before, she expressed understanding for Meng Yingxing, too much understanding.

Her current shell was indeed abnormally beautiful and extremely charming.

Let alone Meng Yingxing, even her past self meeting her current self would likely have fanciful thoughts.

Wasn’t it just a small matter of being dreamed about in a dream?

Xiu Qingcheng wouldn’t be like ordinary women, letting her imagination run wild for forty-nine days.

Moreover, Meng Yingxing’s situation was due to Nan Feixue’s mischief.

Thinking about it, Meng Yingxing wasn’t at fault in this matter; instead, he was a victim.

But seeing Meng Yingxing kneeling so sincerely to admit his mistake for his actions, Xiu Qingcheng actually didn’t dare to lightly gloss over this matter.

She simply went along with the mistake, pretending to be serious as she cleared her throat.

“Since you know your mistake, then you must accept punishment.”

“Yes, Disciple is willing to accept punishment.”

Hearing this, Meng Yingxing buried his head a few degrees lower.

“I punish you to make more delicious food for me after we go back.”

Xiu Qingcheng thought for a moment and decided on the so-called punishment for Meng Yingxing.

Currently without a physical body, her worldly desires weren’t particularly strong; she was only interested in food.

“Yes…?”

Suddenly realizing this punishment was painless, Meng Yingxing froze, abruptly raising his head to look at Xiu Qingcheng.

Seeing his dazed look, his crimson-gold eyes full of astonishment, Xiu Qingcheng couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Stupid disciple, look at how scared you are!”

Xiu Qingcheng raised her hand and patted his shoulder.

“Hahahaha…”

“Don’t be afraid, I was just scaring you.”

“However, don’t be happy too early. After all, you are Master’s only disciple; Master is very concerned about your lifelong events. So, regarding the matter of helping you find a woman, Master has spent quite a bit of thought.”

Meng Yingxing was completely confused, looking up blankly at Xiu Qingcheng.

“This… what does this mean?”

“Since you are the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, does that mean that as long as any living being in this world does something with you in your dream, you can sense it?”

Meng Yingxing nodded.

“In that case, can you know the thoughts of all living creatures anytime and anywhere, like a surveillance camera?”

“This… isn’t this like having the Heavenly Eye opened, knowing everything!?”

Meng Yingxing nodded blankly again.

“I told you, Master is very open-minded. I won’t think you committed any mistake just because of this small matter.”

“It’s normal to have desires in your heart~ Moreover, this time it was all Nan Feixue’s doing. I know, Disciple, that your heart isn’t that dirty!”

Hearing Xiu Qingcheng say this, Meng Yingxing felt incredibly moved.

“Master, I’ll definitely make delicious food for you when we go back! And I’ll buy you wine too!”

To repay such an understanding master, Meng Yingxing was even willing to make an exception and let her drink once, evidently forgetting about Xiu Qingcheng climbing all over people after getting drunk.

Xiu Qingcheng nodded with immense satisfaction at this.

“Alright, get up. We haven’t even finished browsing today’s Spring Market.”

“Yes, Master!”

After walking out of the alley, Meng Yingxing’s expression returned to normal, and Xiu Qingcheng had transformed back into the Ting Tian Sword carried on his back.

Thinking carefully about being dreamed of by Meng Yingxing, apart from the shockwave of astonishment when she first heard it, she felt absolutely no special feeling now.

In fact, Xiu Qingcheng even kind of wanted to hear the details.

Her eyeballs rolled around, unknown what bad idea she was cooking up again.

“Disciple, was it your first time having this kind of dream?”

Meng Yingxing, who was still browsing the Spring Market, was startled by Xiu Qingcheng’s sudden question.

He coughed violently, the tips of his ears instantly turning slightly red. After checking that no one around noticed him, he lowered his head a few degrees.

As if he had no face to see anyone.

“…Yes.”

Facing Xiu Qingcheng’s embarrassing question, the young boy answered listlessly but honestly.

“Sigh, I thought it was because I was too charming that you had this kind of dream, Disciple.”

“Turns out it was under the influence of that Nan Feixue fellow’s ‘Dream of a Spring Night’.”

Hearing a hint of disappointment in Xiu Qingcheng’s words, Meng Yingxing was so flustered he didn’t know how to answer her.

‘No, what kind of victim actively brings up this kind of thing!’

‘Boring, frivolous, shameless!’

Xiu Qingcheng watched Meng Yingxing’s varied expressions, laughing secretly in her heart.

She just liked seeing Meng Yingxing looking so shy and helpless against her!

“So, Disciple, if… without Nan Feixue’s whatever Spring Night, would you still dream of me?”

Would he, or would he not; this was a very good question.

But to such a shameless question from Xiu Qingcheng, Meng Yingxing could only answer:

“N-No.”

Answering ‘yes’ would raise suspicion of insulting his master!

Hearing Meng Yingxing’s answer, Xiu Qingcheng acted dejected and sighed endlessly.

“So you’re saying, Master’s appearance has no charm at all?”

“No no no! Master is very beautiful, very charming!!”

Meng Yingxing hurriedly answered immediately, praising Xiu Qingcheng extravagantly.

“Master is the most beautiful person I have ever seen, and also the strongest person I have ever seen!”

Seeing Meng Yingxing compliment her like this, Xiu Qingcheng felt even more triumphant.

Although she didn’t feel much about being beautiful herself, she still enjoyed the feeling of being praised by her disciple.

Seeing Xiu Qingcheng suddenly stop talking, Meng Yingxing breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The questions Master asked… were too ambiguous; he completely didn’t know what was right to say and what was wrong.

Just when Meng Yingxing thought Xiu Qingcheng’s interrogation was over, Xiu Qingcheng suddenly asked with immense teasing:

“Hey Disciple, what did you dream about in the dream?”

Xiu Qingcheng was already curious about what Meng Yingxing dreamed of; now knowing he dreamed of her, she absolutely had to hear it.

“N-Nothing.”

The tips of Meng Yingxing’s ears were glowing red.

“Hurry up and say it! What is there to hide from Master! Is Master not qualified?”

Xiu Qingcheng started a ‘misery offensive’ against Meng Yingxing.

Clearly it used to be quite effective, but today Meng Yingxing acted uncharacteristically, refusing to reveal even half a bit of the dream’s content no matter what.

So Xiu Qingcheng had to guess actively.

“Did we do this?”

“…”

“Then did we do that?”

“No!”

“Oh oh, then did I use this?”

“…”

“Then it must be that I used that!”

“…”

‘Master, you are boring, frivolous, and shameless!’

Meng Yingxing really wanted to close the ears in his mind to stop Xiu Qingcheng from saying words that shouldn’t be spoken by a girl!
