Chu Huaizhou took a deep breath, leaning down to whisper in her ear, his voice slightly hoarse.
“I’m sorry, Baiqian. Bai Li and I have been keeping a secret from you.”
“I’d planned to tell everyone at the right time, but you know… it’s really hard to say.”
“It was discovered not long ago—it’s the Primordial Yang Constitution.”
Xia Baiqian’s eyes flew wide open, the tenderness in them instantly freezing over.
A flicker of anger surfaced.
Who did her master think he was fooling?
She didn’t believe that little fox Bai Li had the guts to do such a thing.
More likely, it was her senior sister Leng Qingqiu who had the nerve and ability.
But for now, she didn’t want to discuss it.
So after her chest heaved violently a few times,
she pinched Chu Huaizhou’s arm with her slender fingers, yet her voice remained syrupy sweet:
“What is Master talking about? I don’t understand~”
Chu Huaizhou felt his body gradually slipping out of control, moving according to Xia Baiqian’s will.
He quickly continued explaining:
“It happened a while ago. You know, as a nine-tailed celestial fox, Bai Li has certain instincts that can’t be stopped.”
“At the time, you were busy, and no one else was around.”
“You also know my situation—at the Nascent Soul stage, resisting a Mahayana stage’s full-blown charm was impossible.”
“So later, in a daze, some things happened that shouldn’t have.”
Xia Baiqian’s gaze grew colder, but she pressed her body even closer,
as if punishing him for his confession in this way.
With his last strength, Chu Huaizhou pulled her tightly into his arms.
Their bodies melded perfectly; he could clearly feel her accelerating heartbeat.
He whispered in her ear:
“Baiqian, you know this!”
His lips nearly touched her earlobe, his voice barely audible.
But to Xia Baiqian, it was like thunder!
“You are my true dao companion. The most… my heart only has you!”
“Thump—thump—”
In the silent room, two hearts beat in the same chaotic rhythm, impossible to tell which was louder.
Xia Baiqian suddenly let out a soft laugh, pressing her warm palm against the back of Chu Huaizhou’s neck, pulling him even closer.
“Master is so cunning.”
Her voice carried a hint of sweetness.
“Saying something like this at a time like this…”
Her fingertips traced down his spine.
“Do you want me to be angrier, or more excited?”
Xia Baiqian’s emotions rollercoastered.
When Chu Huaizhou spoke of his relationship with Bai Li, they nearly plummeted to rock bottom.
She thought her master was lying to favor the senior sister, even at a moment like this.
The nature of their relationship was clear without words.
But Xia Baiqian loved him, after all.
As he explained, she slowly found some reason in his words.
Indeed, many seemingly absurd things happen in small everyday moments.
As long as it wasn’t the senior sister who took his first time, it was fine.
Xia Baiqian’s somewhat damaged dao heart slowly healed.
That slutty fox Bai Li…
Though she hated to admit it, there was nothing she could do.
Faced with that situation, Master had no choice but to compromise.
And that slutty fox was hardly a rival.
At most, a concubine.
Thinking this way, she felt much better.
Most of the troubles from before dwindled away.
Besides, Master had just… taken the initiative to hold her~ hehe~
They were still in that embrace.
Xia Baiqian could feel Master’s abundant warmth, as if they might merge.
This was the first time she had been so intimate with Master!
In the past, she had always been the one to initiate; Master never dared to go too far.
Xia Baiqian’s eyes gradually softened, her dark state receding.
Chu Huaizhou felt the heavy pressure on him loosen as Xia Baiqian moved.
Then it lifted.
He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling he had probably passed today’s test.
He cautiously rose slightly, meeting Xia Baiqian’s watery eyes.
After a moment’s hesitation, he decided it wasn’t safe enough, so he kissed her.
Yet in his mind, he thought of Leng Qingqiu’s cold, beautiful figure.
Sorry, Qingqiu. I’m not a good master.
Not a good dao companion…
Though she wasn’t his true dao companion either, they had shared a marital bond.
He couldn’t deny it.
Xia Baiqian didn’t notice her master’s thoughts.
Sensing his active kiss, she responded eagerly.
Her heart was full of joy, her whole being floating like a fairy.
Her pale, flushed jade feet arched, trembling slightly.
Hehe~ Master actually kissed me first, hehe~
Senior Sister Leng Qingqiu, you’ve never been to this place of Master’s, have you?
Sorry, I’ve beaten you to it, hehe~
They remained like that for a long time.
When Chu Huaizhou felt it was enough, he stopped.
After all, as a cultivator, he was first and foremost a man.
In such a situation, it was hard to guarantee he wouldn’t do something excessive.
He looked at Xia Baiqian again; her eyes had become completely docile.
Though they still shimmered with love, the emptiness and lifelessness in them
had vanished.
Chu Huaizhou got up, and Xia Baiqian didn’t stop him.
Instead, she rose in a kneeling position, sitting on her heels.
Silently straightening her disheveled clothes.
All the dissatisfaction and despair accumulated in recent days
had been nearly dissolved by Chu Huaizhou.
As for Bai Li—sorry.
Though we’re good sisters, the accounts still need to be settled.
Xia Baiqian sneered inwardly. In another room,
tucked in Meng Yinlu’s arms, Bai Li was reading a romance novel with her.
Bai Li’s large white fox ears and nine tails suddenly pricked up as if startled.
“What’s wrong, Little Bai Li?”
Meng Yinlu stopped reading and cast a concerned look.
Bai Li shook her head and said with profound meaning,
“I don’t know, meow? Just now I felt like someone had locked onto me.
But when I carefully probed, I couldn’t find any threat, meow.”
Meng Yinlu smiled faintly, beautiful beyond compare.
“It’s okay, don’t be afraid. Master will protect you…”
Halfway through, she realized something was off, because Master had lost his memory.
Her willow brows furrowed slightly, a hint of melancholy, but then, as if
to encourage herself, she pouted.
“No matter what happens, as long as I’m here, I’ll protect Master, Bai Li, and all the senior sisters!”
Bai Li raised her paws and clapped.
“Ah, yes, yes, our Yinlu is the strongest. With a swoosh swoosh, you can
kill all the enemies, meow!”
She immediately dismissed the matter and chose to continue reading the romance novel with Meng Yinlu.
They were at a part where the domineering sect master disguised himself as a new disciple
and met the sect’s beloved junior sister.
Both the girl and the fox wore slightly inappropriate smiles.
Back to Xia Baiqian: after she recovered her mood,
she turned back into an obedient, quirky, sunny beauty.
She dutifully accepted Meng Yinlu’s secret realm essence.
Refining it with a secret method not only corrected her somewhat shaken dao heart,
but also inexplicably added to her understanding of the origins and generation of life.
Moreover, after experiencing multiple crises,
Xia Baiqian’s cultivation, which had been stagnant for over a hundred years, began to loosen.
Accumulated breakthroughs, coupled with this fortuitous encounter,
sparked an impulse to advance to the mid-Mahayana stage!
