The four of them had random thoughts running through their minds. They wanted to look but didn't dare to, keeping their heads down and constantly glancing furtively at the situation between their master and senior brother.
Qiyue covered her face with her hands, peeking at the two through her fingers, her smile even more uncontrollable than AK's.
[Master is so unreserved! But I love watching, hehe~]
Lou Xuanzhi froze, released his grip in a flash, and suddenly turned to stare at Qiyue with a stern expression and a dark cloud over his face.
That idiot Xiao Ba! What kind of illusion did he give her that made her think he was gay? And he's her apprentice?! She's going to die!
Xie Ji'an's face was even paler, his clenched fists trembled slightly, his eyes were lowered, and his dark eyes were full of difficulty and stiffness.
How could Master have such thoughts about him? He's a man! It seems I'll have to avoid Master as much as possible from now on. If all else fails, I'll have to be rebellious and leave the sect...
Xie Ji'an's thoughts were churning, and he felt extremely distressed.
Le Luoxi secretly started bleeding from her nose.
Qiyue exclaimed, "Senior Sister! You're injured!"
"Huh? Yes, yes, really?" Le Luoxi looked up in a panic, her beautiful face as red as an apple, and a streak of bright red blood flowed from her fair and pert nose down to her lips.
Qiyue quickly pulled out a handkerchief to cover her nose. Le Luoxi awkwardly turned her head away, pushed Qiyue away, and hurriedly wiped the blood from her nose, saying incoherently, "Well, it's an internal injury, I've suffered some internal injuries, I'll go treat them first."
With that, she turned and left without looking back, glancing back at Xie Ji'an every few steps as she went.
Lou Xuanzhi gritted his teeth, his gaze deep and unfathomable. Was this some kind of joke? Who was the master and who was the disciple? Had he even agreed to leave…?
After Le Luoxi left, the atmosphere became even more awkward. Everyone wanted to leave physically, but their minds kept telling them to wait and see.
While watching the spectacle, everyone was relieved that they were the only ones who could hear their junior sister's thoughts; otherwise, where would they have gotten to see this good show?
Silence is the prevailing principle today, and the silence of everyone made the atmosphere somewhat eerie.
July's innermost thoughts were even more outrageous.
As everyone knows, Meng Yi is domineering, stubborn, possessive, and extremely vengeful. We can't trouble our senior brother anymore, or Master will be unhappy...
[And we can't touch our senior brother either...]
Xie Ji'an's expression almost stopped, and he looked at Qi Yue.
Your face practically screamed, "You'd better ask me for help, I'd be happy to, I like it, junior sister, save me..."
Qiyue, however, did not think so; she only felt that...
Is Senior Brother saying I'm in his way? Is he telling me to leave? Oh, I get it.
July understood, and Lou Xuanzhi, Xie Ji'an, and the others were all stunned!
Zhuo Ziyu and the other four: What? Master isn't in a one-sided love relationship?
Xie Ji'an was speechless and shocked: You...?
Lou Xuanzhi: So he likes me! This won't do! I'm devoted to the Dao, I must shatter his illusions! I must overturn the image of him as a free spirit who loves freedom!
July's heartfelt words rekindled Lou Xuanzhi's idea of treating Xie Ji'an harshly.
"As the senior disciple, you have disobeyed the teachings and taken your junior brothers and sisters down the mountain without permission! I hereby punish you by making you reflect on your actions in the Ice Cave for a month!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lou Xuanzhi didn't give Xie Ji'an another glance. With a wave of his hand, he sealed Xie Ji'an's cultivation and disappeared in a flash.
The next instant, Xie Ji'an teleported to an ice bed in a cave filled with ice.
Only Qiyue, Song Yanzhuo, Shangguan Fu, Zhuo Ziyu, Gu Xingchuan, and Yun Huai remained, stunned.
Of them, July was the most lively and excited.
[Yes! I guessed right! The imprisonment has begun! Next, will they secretly visit me out of pity?]
Qiyue was lost in her own thoughts, completely unaware of the five people beside her, and returned to the South Pavilion.
The five people stood there stunned, completely dumbfounded.
I didn't realize that Master and Senior Brother had such a taste...
The group struggled to process this incredibly powerful information before returning to their respective mountain peaks.
In the days that followed, Le Luoxi continued her cultivation while reviewing "The Unscrupulous Conspirator." Over time, she even started drawing it herself.
Besides cultivating, Qiyue took the Nine-Tailed Fox she had retrieved from Song Yanzhuo and went to the Ice Cave to investigate. She also bumped into Song Yanzhuo and his group.
The six men stared at each other, then tactically touched their noses.
They don't even repeat the same excuses.
"My senior brother's cultivation has been sealed, he must be suffering. I've come to check on him."
As soon as they finished speaking, they exchanged smiles, took out chicken, duck, fish, meat, fruits and vegetables from their spatial rings, and chuckled, "What a coincidence."
Inside, Xie Ji'an sat cross-legged on the ice bed. A thin layer of frost covered his handsome, cold face. His eyes were closed, and with each breath, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, causing the frost flowers on them to flutter, revealing a hint of fragility.
On the surface, it appears calm as still water, but inside, it is a turbulent sea.
Unexpectedly, his master actually imprisoned him just as his junior sister had said. It seems that his master really had those kinds of feelings for him. What should he do?
In the past, he would have simply killed a dissolute man like Hua Chuyu and let it go. But he had been picked up from a pile of corpses by his master since he was a child. His master provided him with food and clothing and taught him to read, write, and cultivate.
Although he is taciturn and his actions are often baffling, and his cultivation is only mentioned briefly, even if he were thrown into the library, the decades of upbringing and care he received were genuine…
His master had treated him with immense kindness; how could he possibly abandon his master?
But if he doesn't leave, his master... no, he's a man, how can men do that... Besides, even if he wanted to—no! No! No! He doesn't want to, he's really out of his mind!
Thinking of this, Xie Ji'an, whether out of anger or shame, turned his pale face red, his eyes widened suddenly, he gasped for breath, knelt on the ground, and frantically shook his head, trying to get those lewd images out of his mind.
Upon entering, Song Yanzhuo, seeing this, thought Xie Ji'an had gone mad.
With swift reflexes, he knocked Xie Ji'an unconscious.
He then breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily I arrived in time, otherwise Senior Brother would have suffered a qi deviation!"
Even the usually simple-minded Zhuo Ziyu frowned deeply: "Yes, it really is too dangerous."
Gu Xingchuan's eyes showed sympathy: "Senior Brother has endured too much."
Shangguan Fu and Yun Huai also looked serious: "No, Senior Brother can't stay here any longer."
"Master has gone too far! As human beings, who doesn't have emotions and desires? How could you do this? Um... why are you all looking at me like that?"
Seeing the probing looks from the group, Qiyue swallowed hard and said, "What I mean is, it's normal for Senior Brother to feel sorry for us."
The five nodded: "Yes, that's what we think too."
Whew~
Qiyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
[That scared me to death! I thought I'd let something slip.]
The other five chuckled inwardly, secretly casting a meaningful smile at Qiyue; their thoughts were surprisingly aligned.
That's for sure! Luckily, he was the only one who could hear his junior sister's thoughts, otherwise she would have given herself away long ago.
