It wasn't until the next day, when Xiao Yuhan sobered up, that she realized she had said the wrong thing while drunk. She hoped that Bai Yao wouldn't notice anything amiss, while also recalling Bai Yao's unusual behavior.
The little girl seemed to have reached the age where she was curious about matters between men and women, which troubled Xiao Yuhan. Although he had always thought of raising Bai Yao as his wife in the style of a nurturing game, it was just talk. After all, they had lived as master and disciple for so long, and in his eyes, Bai Yao was just a little girl who didn't know anything.
Xiao Yuhan was the kind of person who talked a lot but was actually a coward, so he never really thought about making Bai Yao his future wife. However, the girl's words and actions were becoming increasingly strange, and he began to suspect that she was confusing her dependence on her master with romantic feelings.
After all, the two kinds of feelings are not the same thing. It is normal for Bai Yao to be more or less dependent on me since she lost her parents at a young age, but it would be dangerous if she developed any inappropriate feelings.
If this were when Xiao Yuhan first arrived, he would definitely think, "If there's a bargain, I'm a fool not to take advantage of it. What's wrong with keeping the wife I'm raising?"
But now that he has lived in this world for a long time, his way of thinking has gradually changed. He no longer sees coming here as a game, but as a real life. So he no longer has that playful attitude when looking at many issues.
He had a sense of what he should and shouldn't do, so he became increasingly distressed. However, the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Even now that he's at the Heavenly Sword Sect, Xiao Yuhan still can't completely relax. Although the enemy seems far away, if he doesn't work harder to strengthen his own power, he will definitely be in a very passive position in the future.
Moreover, there is something even more important: the matter that the demon emperor inside Bai Yao's body asked him to do has still not been resolved. Last night, while drinking, he took the opportunity to secretly ask his senior brother, who also said that Fengming Mountain no longer exists.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan felt that at least there was a reason to explain. He thought to himself that he would wait until the woman in Bai Yao's body woke up again to see how things went. After all, it wasn't his fault, but rather that she hadn't explained things clearly.
Where can I find a fox demon named Xiao Jiu? I've only seen one fox demon since I came to this world, and she was a nine-tailed celestial fox. I probably offended her terribly during our last battle. If we meet again...
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan frowned. Xiao Jiu? Nine-tailed Celestial Fox? Could it be the same person? No, could it be the same demon?
After thinking about it, he shook his head and gave up. It was better to wait until they met again someday than to discuss something that couldn't be verified.
Stretching, Xiao Yuhan walked out of the courtyard. The strong scent of Ningxiang grass was calming. Although the sect's martial arts competition was imminent, Xiao Yuhan felt as if nothing was wrong and was bored.
However, just as he was about to go out for a stroll, he turned around and saw Bai Yao in the courtyard. He was immediately taken aback. "Yao'er, aren't you cultivating today?"
Bai Yao changed into a green dress with flowing sleeves today, and her hair was styled in a very dignified way. At first glance, she was not recognized, but she looked like a young lady waiting to be married. Xiao Yuhan's girlish heart was immediately overwhelmed. Bai Yao was already beautiful, and her current outfit completely satisfied his fantasies. The reason he liked green dresses was because he had seen a lovelorn woman in a green dress in a novel before.
She was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was her favorite character. Speechless, she whispered, "Yao'er is very special today..."
The girl was taken aback, then smiled and said, "These are clothes that Master bought. Although Yao'er doesn't like them very much, she found that they actually look quite nice after wearing them."
"Don't you like it? I think it looks pretty good... cough cough... don't change the subject. By the way, why didn't you go to cultivate today? And why did you move all those pots, pans and other utensils into my yard?" Xiao Yuhan looked at the things in front of the kitchen door with some confusion.
The girl blinked, her gaze shifting slightly. "Well... Master, last night there was a sudden thunderstorm, and my little thatched hut collapsed in the wind. Yao'er had nowhere to stay, so I had to come to Master's courtyard to find an empty room. Anyway, Master, you have plenty of empty rooms here..."
Xiao Yuhan thought for a moment, seemingly finding the situation understandable, "Well... there's nothing we can do about it, let's just stay here for now... Wait a minute! When has our Heavenly Sword Sect ever experienced a strong wind?"
At this moment, an outer disciple covered in dust walked in from not far away, "Greetings, Elder Xiao!"
After bowing, the young man bowed to Bai Yao again and said, "Senior Sister Bai Yao, we have already demolished that thatched hut, and the wood from it has been moved to the woodshed for you. But I think that little thatched hut was quite nice, so why did you demolish it?"
Bai Yao was immediately embarrassed and lightly scolded, "Nonsense! It's clearly a collapsed house, how is it okay? It even leaks, you know that..."
Bai Yao kept trying to explain something, glancing at Xiao Yuhan every now and then, afraid that he would see through her.
Xiao Yuhan was quite helpless. Even a fool would understand that Bai Yao herself had ordered the small thatched hut to be demolished.
The young boy didn't know why Senior Sister Bai Yao was reacting this way, so he immediately bowed and took his leave. Bai Yao, on the other hand, puffed out her cheeks and dared not speak again, her eyes darting away, as if she was afraid that her master would scold her for this.
Xiao Yuhan stared at Bai Yao, walking towards her step by step. Bai Yao became increasingly flustered, wanting to explain something, "Master... Master, actually that little thatched hut often leaks, and... and... sometimes it's chilly when the wind blows..."
Her voice grew softer and softer, less and less confident. Hearing this, Xiao Yuhan stepped forward and gently stroked Bai Yao's head, saying softly, "Then stay here. You've suffered so much these past years..."
