This Senior Brother is a Little Weird (Part 3)
# Act 3: This Senior Brother is a Little Weird
Yun Xian didn't know what was happening outside, she just kept walking forward.
The black scarf before her was made of a unique material, and her consciousness could not escape. She could only feel a gray haze before her eyes. Her feet twisted and turned, and she didn't know how many corners she had passed. Finally, the two people beside her lowered their hands and whispered, "Sir, we've arrived."
arrive?
She was gently pushed on the back, the door opened, and Yun Xian stepped into a dark room.
The air was filled with an aroma several times stronger than that outside, even a bit sweet. Yun Xian didn't like such a strong smell and almost sneezed impolitely.
The black scarf could be taken off. The scene before her was something she had never seen before. Yun Xian couldn't help but widen her eyes——
Above the cot stood a horizontal bar, its purpose unknown. The fluorescent light was dim. A dog demon lay obediently against the wall, a gentle smile on its face and a pair of large brown ears on its head. It said in a gentle voice, "Guest, you've arrived."
Even though Yun Xian hadn't eaten pork, he had at least seen pigs run. Looking at the small bed, barely big enough for one person, he felt something was amiss. Was it really enough to sleep on? And that dog demon...
"...Hey." Yun Xian ruthlessly pointed out, "You're the dog who tipped off the news just now, right?"
I hadn't expected this creature to be so fat as a bamboo basket in his beast form, with such a cunning look in his eyes, while his human form was surprisingly gentle. He truly was quite the pretentious person. The dog demon was stunned for a moment, his smile unwavering. "Sir, why am I not understanding what you're saying?"
Yun Xian looked at him for a moment and said deliberately, "As expected, the dogs from the Northern Realm are better looking. Their fur is white and smooth. The local dogs from the Eastern Realm are only cute when they are young."
"What the hell are you talking about?!" The local dog flew into a rage. "Also, my name isn't 'Hey' or 'Local Dog'!! It's called 'Rural Dog', you uneducated person!!!"
…
Half an incense stick later, Yun Xian finally enjoyed the special service at a different price.
It turned out to be a massage. A proper massage, nothing out of place, except that it was slightly different from other massage parlors: it used flesh pads instead of hands.
To be honest, the feeling of the flesh pads filled with spiritual energy pressing on the sore muscles and bones is really good. The guests can even touch the tail and ears. Yun Xian lay on the small bed, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was not right.
...It's just a pet massage. Why is it necessary to be so secretive and look so bizarre? This can be run openly!
And if there was something wrong with this restaurant, the people at the Qinfang would have taken action long ago. How could it be her turn to monitor the crime?
But then I thought, maybe this is a new way to attract customers. The more mysterious it is, the more attractive it is. Plus, the higher the barrier to entry, the more unique it seems. If it had just been opened without any reservations, the customer base would definitely not be as large as it is now.
Yun Xian thought about this for a long time, half confused and half ashamed, and she was almost drowsy. It was not until the pair of flexible hands gently pressed on her butterfly bones that she turned her head alertly.
A succubus, clearly a rather unruly one, sat astride her waist, grinning at her. The dog demon had already disappeared, leaving only one person and one demon in the room.
Yun Xian: “…”
"What's wrong?" the succubus said skillfully, "You don't like this style? What do you like?"
"Take your hands off me, get down." Yun Xian said ruthlessly, considering his limited cultivation level, "Are you guys looking for new jobs after being laid off? Didn't I say that all this is now prohibited?"
Mei Yanliu has now opened a dyeing workshop, and it is still doing this?
The succubus put on a bearded face and avoided answering: "Do you like this?"
Yun Xian said, "It looks like he hasn't changed his underwear in ten days."
The succubus put on a sickly beautiful face again and asked, "Like this?"
Yun Xian said: "I feel impotent."
The succubus choked, then put on a cold, icy face and said in a firm tone, "You should like this, right?"
"Have you ever heard the old saying, 'Once you've seen the sea, all other waters are but puddles; except for Mount Wu, all other clouds are but mounds.'" This face was indeed quite beautiful, but Yun Xian remained unmoved. He said, "Don't change it. Are you tired? Come on, follow me to the Qinfang..."
Before she finished speaking, her expression froze.
...This succubus actually transformed Su Chi's face with incredible accuracy and said fiercely, "Then you will like it, right?!"
From the very beginning, she had never revealed her true identity. Now Yun Xian could be sure that this was coming for her!
The talisman on his body began to vibrate violently. Yun Xian lowered his head and took a look, thinking that something was wrong.
No, this is for Su Chi!!
Taiping was silent, and no one knew when he had been tricked. Could it be that cup of tea?! Yun Xian suddenly drew his sword, and the succubus with Su Chi's face sneered. It was the same old trick!
He had no intention of defeating Yun Xian; all he wanted was to temporarily delay those fleeting moments. White robes fluttered in the air, stripped off everywhere, revealing the muscular body beneath. Yun Xian's eyes flashed, and he thought, "I've offended you, I've offended you." He gritted his teeth and attacked wildly, quickly rushing out of the dark room. However, it was too late. All that was left were fat dogs and cats that looked up innocently, and the building was deserted, with no trace of anyone.
The black iron sword on the table also disappeared without a trace.
-
The fact that Su Chi was abducted by the remnants of the demon clan should have been quickly notified to the major sects in the four realms to avoid endless troubles. Yun Xian did so immediately, but she did not expect things to develop like this -
The sects in the four realms were on high alert, not to mention Jiange. Yun Lang and Xiao Wu searched everywhere for a long time, and finally they keenly noticed a little trace of Su Chi in the tabloids of the Northern Realm.
Today's laughingstock: He was dragged along by a long sword while holding it, breaking two of his front teeth along the way – the reputation of a swordsman suffers!
Yun Lang: “…”
Xiao Wu: “…”
"It should be him." Yun Xian shook the tabloid and said miserably, "How come the eldest brother can't even maintain his human form? It seems that he has been acting really strangely lately..."
If he were a human, it would be much easier to find. Swords all look pretty much the same, but Su Chi's face is unique.
During the battle, the people of Jiange watched Su Chi turn into a sword. The people of other sects were busy with their own affairs and were not very clear about the connection between the two. Besides, no one would associate Su Chi with this magic sword for no reason.
Seeing her worried expression, Qiao Lingshan said, "They're just a bunch of remnants. They can't cause much trouble. You don't have to worry too much about Senior Brother Su's safety."
"I'm not worried about his life, I'm worried about the lives of those demons." Yun Xian didn't know what to say. "This is the sword that killed Chi You. One strike from it will definitely kill the demon."
There are only a few demons left in the succubus clan now. How will she explain to Mei Yanliu if she chops it off like this? I hope the demon is okay.
At that time, Yun Xian was still quite optimistic about the matter. After all, she had some connections in the four realms, especially in the Northern Realm, including Ji Rongxue, Liu Xu, Miss Liu, and at the very least, her aunt Xiao Yuan who traveled all over the world. With such a powerful intelligence network, how could she worry about not being able to find Su Chi?
Sure enough, within a few days, the tabloids in the northern border were updated again.
《The devil's sword is roaming, everyone stay away!》
Seeing this title, Yun Xian's heart tightened. Demon? What does it have to do with demons? No matter how powerful Su Chi was, he couldn't possibly be a demon sword. Could he have really hurt someone?
After reading the content again, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
According to the author of the tabloid, this magic sword was born out of nowhere and was as black as ink. No one knew which bastard was controlling it behind the scenes. It never did its job all day long. It would get close to anyone it met and ask quietly, "Have you seen my junior sister?"
Coming out of nowhere like that in the dark of night is truly terrifying! Furthermore, there are countless sects and apprentice sisters in the world, so who knows which apprentice sister he's talking about?!
But at this point, be careful with your answers. If you say "I didn't see it," the sword will silently turn its hilt and move on to the next person. If you say "I saw it," it will follow you and refuse to leave until it reaches your doorstep and discovers it's been tricked. Then, it will cut your hair in two and then walk away—specifically cutting the sideburns. Extremely wicked! But that's not the worst! If you say "Go away, your junior sister doesn't want you anymore," you'll be struck on the back of the head by the hilt of the sword.
Although it won’t hurt, it’s loud, painful, and embarrassing!
This demonic sword has been roaming the main city of the Northern Realm for several days now, and the number of victims is rapidly increasing. No matter how high their cultivation level, it's impossible to catch it. Many people, curious about how painful it is to be struck on the back of the head, deliberately tease it. Through this growing experience, I've summarized some of the characteristics of this mysterious "junior sister":
First, it was a high ponytail. Second, it was black hair. Third, Junior Sister really didn't want it anymore.
Haha, poor little thing!
After the tabloid was circulated, an awkward silence suddenly filled the main hall of Jiange.
If I didn't know that Su Chi's temperament might change drastically for a short period of time, I wouldn't have dared to recognize him!
Xiao Wu's forehead twitched slightly, and he finally said, "Have you two progressed to this point now?"
Yun Lang's face turned a little green and he coughed.
"It's unfair, mother!" Yun Xian said immediately, "Big Brother and I are innocent!"
In her heart, this was true. A gentleman judges deeds, not hearts. No matter how much nonsense there was in her head, she and Su Chi were indeed as innocent as could be. Every time she said something, Su Chi would tell her to stop. Wasn't their relationship pure enough?
Qiao Lingshan also chimed in: "Yes, that's right."
"Oh?" Xiao Wu asked with a perceptive look, "You've never held hands?"
Yun Xian was speechless: "Uh..."
We've held hands before, but it's not that bad. There were always legitimate reasons, and it wasn't just for fun... But, we definitely held hands, more than once or twice.
Xiao Wu continued, "Hasn't he ever combed your hair, brought you food, washed your clothes, or mended your socks?"
Yun Xian: “Occasionally…”
Xiao Wu finally said, "Holding hands is fine. But there have been more intimate things than this, right?"
Yun Xian's eyes turned around: "..."
Yun Lang couldn't listen any longer and coughed, "Alright, what's the point of asking? Isn't it normal for a child to like more than one thing? She just likes this one today and that one tomorrow. It's none of our business."
"What do you know?" Xiao Wu said bluntly, "It's because I know that children are prone to this kind of behavior that I want her to be more restrained. Do you know how many people are watching our eldest disciple? He looks like that, and he tops the list every year. Don't you know how much he's talked about? If you haven't made up your mind, don't do it. If Xian'er is tied to him like this, how will she like this today and that tomorrow?"
Besides, it wasn't that she thought her eldest disciple was bad. It was just that, after all, the eldest disciple was a sword, and there had never been a precedent for a sword turning into a human. She had been wondering, what would happen to her offspring?
Qiao Lingshan never expected this idea and was extremely shocked.
But it actually seems to make some sense.
Yun Xian muttered, "I'm not that fickle."
Xiao Wu: "Where did you lose your senior brother a few days ago in some indecent place?"
"I was on official business! I was out on business!" Yun Xian complained, "If I want to touch Fluffy, can't I touch Shu Jiuwei? I can also touch the eldest lady! If all else fails, Jiangshan can touch her too!"
Jiang Shan: "I won't let you touch me!!"
Xiao Wu didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he finally waved his hand and stuffed Yun Xian into the carriage heading to the Northern Territory: "Go and take care of this matter, and bring your poor little brother back!"
"Remember! Don't let others discover your identities! Otherwise, people will panic again!"
…
…
After traveling day and night, Yun Xian arrived at the northern border covered in dust.
It seems that there have been enough victims hit on the back of the head. The streets are covered with notices such as "Beware of the magic sword here" and "Beware of the evil sword". However, there are fewer people from the Northern Territory in the main urban area, and instead there are people wearing all kinds of square clothes.
Yun Xian was startled, thinking that his senior brother's identity had been exposed, when he heard these tourists jokingly saying:
"Were you beaten too?"
"Yeah! It doesn't hurt as much as I thought. How strange. Could it be that the back of my head is more resistant to blows?"
"Your tone is too gentle! Next time, try changing the words, like 'Your junior sister hates you', 'You are no longer her only sword', 'You are so scary, I am the only one who feels sorry for my junior sister'. The effect will be immediate, and it will be very angry."
"Really?! What are the signs of being angry??"
"It makes angry noises. Humph! That's about it."
"Hahahahahaha!! Which junior sister lost this sword? This is too funny! Why hasn't anyone come to claim it yet? Why can't my sword be like this? Change it for me!"
Yun Xian: “…”
Please don't arbitrarily designate this place as an A-level tourist attraction, okay?!
She patiently went over to chat with him for a while, and she had a rough idea of Su Chi's hours. It turned out that his schedule was not much different from when he was alive: early to bed, early to rise, a very healthy one.
Taiping finally woke up from his spirit house, looking weak. The news was delayed by half a month. He said with disheveled hair and a dirty face, "What happened..."
"You go back to sleep." Yun Xian was too lazy to explain, his mouth a little dry from eating the steamed buns. "It doesn't matter whether I have you or not now."
Taiping was so angry that he started yelling again: "You say that?! I've worked so hard for your Yun family... Sorry for getting it wrong. I need to go back to Jiange now! Now!!!"
The night was as dark as ink, and it was finally time for the magic sword to appear.
Yun Xian did not make any preparations. He just squatted on the street corner, ate a few steamed buns, dusted off the crumbs, and stood there, waiting for the sword to come.
Wasn't Su Chi looking for her? Then why didn't she come? It's impossible that this still can't capture him, right?
Just as she swallowed the last bite, she heard a loud slap on the back of her head, followed by the tourists' triumphant laughter, which almost choked her.
I don't understand these people anymore...
Behind her, sword energy whistled, as if something was piercing the sky. Yun Xian didn't turn her head, but the corner of her eye flickered for a moment, and the long sword finally appeared in front of her.
The originally jade-white sword body had been completely stained black. No one knew where it had just come from, and there was still some grass debris on it.
A low voice sounded: "Have you seen my junior sister?"
Yun Xian also said in a barely audible voice: "Look again at who I am."
The hilt of the sword paused slightly, as if the familiar voice had called back memories, and began to tremble slightly. Yun Xian smiled softly and was about to reach out to grasp it, but unexpectedly, something happened suddenly and the situation changed drastically -
Not only did Su Chi not move closer to her, but he released a sword energy that went straight into her sleeves, picked up something on the sword tip, then turned around and disappeared in a stream of light!
Yun Xian was stunned for a moment, touched his sleeve, and his expression froze. He immediately chased after him: "Stop! Stop!!"
Perhaps because so many people had tried to chase Jian before, each one returning empty-handed, her actions didn't attract much attention. Only Taiping exclaimed in shock, "What the hell is wrong with Su Chi?! He suddenly has such a strong demonic aura!! What is he trying to do?! What did he steal?!"
The speed was really fast. Yun Xian followed closely behind him and gritted his teeth, "It's the beast ring! Jiangshan is still inside!!!"
"Why would he steal the kingdom for no reason?!" Taiping said, and then he understood it all at once.
Yun Xian's inexplicable kindness towards Jiang Shan had long been a source of dissatisfaction for many. Even someone as awkward as Jimo Shu had publicly expressed her dissatisfaction with her doting on Jiang Shan, but every time before, Su Chi had silently played the role of the magnanimous senior brother, not only never interrogating but even urging others to ignore it with a deadpan expression.
Could it be that he wants to now? !
As expected, Yun Xian chased him all the way to the lake, but the magic sword flew higher and higher, directly crossing the obstacle, then suddenly stopped and swung the sword -
Throw the beast ring directly into the water.
Jiang Shan was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly forced to swim: "Gululululu... What's going on?! Gulululululu..."
The magic sword stared at the wet iron-eating beast, made a clear sound, and then flew away without looking back.
"snort!"
