Chapter 2 Tears of Despair
"A spirit beast?"
Ye Luo was on the verge of tears. He had just been about to ask her how many bottles she wanted, but it turned out they were for the spirit beasts!
"Senior sister...do you have anything to eat?" Ye Luo asked awkwardly.
"ah?"
Yu Xian'er looked surprised and asked doubtfully, "Do people also go into heat? That kind of thing... is something that can be controlled by one's own will, right?"
A bitter expression crossed Ye Luo's face, and he roared inwardly: Control my ass! He just can't do it...
If he really can't control himself...
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine... He guessed that people in this world would think of him as a monster.
However, after thinking about it, he realized that there might not be a heat cycle at all, and perhaps he was just worrying unnecessarily.
"Perhaps... I'm even reproductively isolated from the people of this world?"
Ye Luo kept comforting herself.
Seeing him frowning in thought, Yu Xian'er thought for a moment and continued, "That kind of pill does exist, but cultivators generally sever their emotions and desires, so no one would refine such a pill."
So, there are some!
Ye Luo looked at her pleadingly, "Senior sister, since you are a pill refiner, could you help me refine some?"
“It is possible…” Yu Xian’er frowned and pondered for a moment, “It’s just that I don’t have any pill formulas on hand. I can help you refine some if I have the chance.”
"Great, thank you, senior sister!" Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief. Now she had no choice but to try anything, regardless of whether her heat cycle came or not, it was better to be prepared.
Okay!
"By the way, what do you need this pill for?"
"Uh...it's very useful."
"All right."
Yu Xian'er smiled gently and did not ask any further questions. "Now that you are a disciple of Peach Blossom Valley, you should go to the Hundred Machines Hall to register and then you can choose a treasure land to open your own cave dwelling."
"Ah, isn't this my house?"
"This is my cave dwelling."
"Oh, I see." Ye Luo chuckled awkwardly. "That's really inconvenient. I'm so sorry to bother you, Senior Sister."
"It's alright. I'll be going out of town in a few days. You can stay here until you find a good cave. It's fine."
"Thank you, senior sister! Love you!" Ye Luo chuckled, pinching a heart shape with her fingers.
Seeing this, Yu Xian'er blushed slightly, covered her mouth and chuckled, "You little rascal, you've got a sweet tongue!"
Ye Luo walked out of the room with great interest. It was his first time going out for a stroll. He originally thought that he would see magnificent pavilions and towers, elegant pavilions in the mountains and valleys. Unfortunately, he was wrong.
To put it nicely, it's rustic and elegant; to put it bluntly, it's poor.
Judging by its size alone, it is worlds apart from the Tianfeng Sect. Judging by its appearance, it doesn't have many disciples either, so it is indeed just a small sect.
However, the scenery here is beautiful and the valley is secluded. Overall, Ye Luo quite liked it. At least she could get away from the hustle and bustle, which was quite fitting for the name 'Peach Blossom Valley'.
Ye Luo looked at the plaque of Baiji Hall, pushed open the door and went in. He saw a young cultivator who was focused on the book in his hands and did not seem to notice him. "Excuse me, senior brother."
Xiao Huan seemed startled by him, quickly closed the book in his hand, and coughed lightly: "Um, is there something you need?"
Seeing his guilty look, Ye Luo thought he looked like someone caught watching porn. She bowed and said, "I'm a new disciple. Senior Sister Yu asked me to register."
"Oh, you're the sect leader's newly accepted junior brother?"
"Hehe, yeah."
Looking disappointed, he got up and rummaged through the record book, saying, "Sigh, I thought we'd get a beautiful and youthful junior sister this year... but it turns out to be a male disciple."
"..."
Sure enough, in the world of the junior sister's beloved group, the only one who gets hurt is always the humble junior brother.
After registering his information, Xiao Huan took out a low-level storage bag and said, "Inside are a restriction token for entering and leaving the valley, a low-grade flying leaf magic weapon, a low-grade Qingxuan sword, and some basic pills. These can help your cultivation."
"Alright, thank you, Senior Brother!" Ye Luo probed into the storage bag with his divine sense. Inside were some low-level items, just like a beginner's gift pack.
"No need to thank me. Also, if you want to open a new cave dwelling, you can go to the spirit beast garden and find the senior uncles who guard it, and ask them to find you a spirit beast to explore the cave."
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother!"
Xiao Huan watched Ye Luo's departing figure, sniffed thoughtfully, and remarked, "Tsk, quite particular for such a young age, actually wearing a sachet like others..."
Ye Luo took the storage bag and went out, just in time to run into Cen Feng walking towards her. Seeing his hurried appearance, she asked, "Fifth Senior Brother, where are you going?"
"I'm going down the mountain, junior brother, would you like to come along?"
"Uh...no, I'd like to go to the Spirit Beast Garden to prepare to open up my cave dwelling."
"This isn't urgent. Come down the mountain with me."
Where to?
Cen Feng looked around and chuckled, "I just heard that the auction held in Wuling City every three years is about to start, and I plan to sneak over and take a look."
secretly?
Ye Luo thought to himself, "So this senior brother wants to go out and have some fun, and wants to drag me down with him."
"Hehe, Fifth Senior Brother, I'm penniless right now, so I think I'd better not go..."
"It's alright, your senior brother has it!" Cen Feng said, and before he could refuse, he pulled him onto the flying sword, and with a "whoosh," they fled out of the valley.
"Hey, that's too fast!"
The sudden speed made Ye Luo dizzy. He closed his eyes in fear, and his calves trembled. "You should at least have given me some time to prepare!"
"My sword flight is considered slow; my senior brother is a sword cultivator, so he's much faster!"
Ye Luo gripped his robe tightly and asked, "Who is Senior Brother? I don't think I've ever seen him before."
Cen Feng steadily controlled his sword, channeling his spiritual power, and said with a respectful expression, "My senior brother's name is Nan Muyin, and he is currently in seclusion cultivating his Nascent Soul!"
"Nan Muyin?"
Ye Luo frowned and began to ponder. Ever since he arrived at Peach Blossom Valley, he always felt that everything was familiar, but he had never had time to think about it in detail.
etc!
Peach Blossom Valley?!
Nan Muyin?
Yu Xian'er?
Cen Feng?
Suddenly remembering something, Ye Luo hurriedly asked, "Don't we also have a third senior sister named Yu Qianling and a fourth senior brother named Feng Yue?"
"Huh?" Cen Feng looked surprised. "Yes, you've seen them?"
Holy crap! Aren't these all villainous cannon fodder characters in the book?!
In the main and side quests, there are characters who constantly give the female protagonist experience and level up, and it seems like everyone's ending is quite tragic.
Because the sect was full of villains, it was not tolerated by the Immortal Alliance. Not only was it expelled from the alliance, but the female protagonist also led a group to wipe out the sect.
miserable.
That's terrible.
Suddenly, Ye Luo felt a chill run down her spine. Wait, something's not right!
If he joins Peach Blossom Valley now, won't he be destined to die with them in the future?!
Last time he was pushed off a cliff by her sycophants, but this time the female lead is personally destroying the sect. It seems he still couldn't escape her clutches!
He's just a delicate omega who can't take care of himself, so why does he have to live in fear and trembling in this world of swords and shadows?
"Damn it!"
Cen Feng asked in confusion after hearing him swear, "What's wrong with you?"
Ye Luo didn't say anything more; he felt like he was going to become withdrawn.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind: why not take advantage of this trip and run away?
However, when the two arrived in Wuling City, he was forced to abandon the idea, for a very simple reason.
He was poor.
In the cultivation world, everything from food and clothing to shelter and transportation requires spirit stones, and he was penniless. The only valuable thing he had was that beginner's gift pack...
"Heh, it's all a dead end."
At this moment, Cen Feng wandered through the bustling market, inquiring about the auction. After a while, he returned looking dejected. "Sigh, the auction won't start for another two hours. Let's find a restaurant to eat at first!"
Ye Luo nodded absentmindedly, "Okay, that's the only way... Let's take it one step at a time."
"Candied hawthorns! Delicious candied hawthorns!" Suddenly, a street vendor's shout rang out.
Ye Luo looked at the strings of candied hawthorns stuck on the straw target, each one crystal clear, and kept swallowing her saliva.
"Little Immortal Master, would you like to try a couple of skewers? My candied hawthorns are super sweet!" The vendor was a sharp-eyed and shrewd person. Seeing Ye Luo's appearance, he naturally rushed to attract customers.
"Junior brother, do you want some?"
Ye Luo's eyes lit up as she nodded frantically, "Mmm!"
After paying the bill, Cen Feng came back with several strings of candied hawthorns. "Here, they're all for you."
"Thank you, Fifth Senior Brother!"
Ye Luo held the candied hawthorns to her nose, sniffed them, and happily ate them one after another, exclaiming, "So delicious!"
"He really is just a little kid..."
The two walked to the restaurant, and Ye Luo had two more sugar figurines in his hands. Cen Feng looked at him speechlessly, wondering why he liked to eat such sweet things that would make his teeth ache. He felt sick of eating them.
Seeing Ye Luo chewing so adorably, like a little hamster, Cen Feng couldn't help but pinch his cheek. "Stop eating, your senior brother will take you to eat something delicious!"
Suddenly, Cen Feng leaned closer and sniffed him, asking, "Junior Brother, what kind of sachet are you wearing? It smells so good!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo swallowed the food in her mouth and asked in surprise, "...What does it taste like?"
"Hmm...it smells like lotus."
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and the snacks in her hand instantly lost their appeal.
He's not an alpha, yet he can smell pheromones?!
——————————
Some of you may not be familiar with the ABO setting, so I'll explain it briefly here.
In addition to the natural sexes of male and female, all of humanity has developed three different biological sexes—Beta, Alpha, and Omega.
I won't go into Beta and Alpha, since they're just omegas who transmigrated, and those are all personal interpretations. You just need to understand the basic relationships between them.
1. Alpha (Dominant): Natural leaders and rulers, they possess excellent genes, superior intelligence, and abundant physical strength. They have a strong possessive and controlling nature in many aspects. They are influenced by "Omega hormones," and may even lose their rationality as a result, leaving only the instinct to possess their partner.
2. Omega (Submissive): The rarest in number, delicate and soft-bodied, and they experience an "uncontrollable heat cycle" at irregular times each year. The sweet "pheromones" emitted during their heat cycle can tempt Alphas to lose their minds. At the same time, they themselves are also affected by "Alph pheromones" and lose their minds.
