Chapter 100 Secret Realm 7 As Xie Jiaoyue fell from mid-air…
When Xie Jiaoyue was falling from mid-air, Gongshi Moyu had already carried her. Logically speaking, since they had already experienced being carried in a princess carry, it would be fine for him to carry her on his back now. He should have remained calm and composed.
But at that time he was in a hurry to check on Xie Jiaoyue's condition and did not notice his own actions or care about his close contact with Xie Jiaoyue. He simply walked over and placed her on the chair.
But the situation is different now. The road back is long. So long that even after he sorted out what happened today, carefully thought about what he needed to do next, and even reconstructed the map of the secret realm in his mind, he still hadn't reached the destination.
His attention inevitably turned to his back, and from his neck to his spine, including his arms, he felt a sensation that was different from usual.
A warm sensation lingered on his neck, the gentle heat rising and falling with his rhythmic, shallow breaths, slowly tickling his skin. Xie Jiaoyue's hands were also wrapped around his neck, and Gongshi Moyu could see her fair hands whenever he looked down.
Further down was his back, and he dared not think too much about what the soft patch at the top was. His entire back was warm and soft. Xie Jiaoyue seemed to be really tired and did not want to use any strength. She completely lay on his back.
This prevented him from reminding Xie Jiaoyue to move slightly away from his back. How could he let his sister, who was already so tired, have to exert herself even more?
He tried to force himself to ignore the sensation on his back, but he ignored the fact that his back was also covered by his arms.
In order to keep Xie Jiaoyue firmly on his back, he used both hands to support Xie Jiaoyue's thighs.
How can we ignore this?! We can't completely ignore it!
This was the first time Gong Shi Moyu had been so intimate with a woman. Every one of his ten fingers was incredibly stiff. He wanted to hold Xie Jiaoyue back with force, but he dared not move too easily and disturb her so as not to cause any misunderstanding.
The tiny sprout in his heart began to grow wildly, one after another, filling his heart completely.
In the blink of an eye, his face turned bright red.
Behind Gong Shi Moyu, Xie Jiaoyue noticed that the temperature on her upper arm had risen slightly. This might not be noticeable to an ordinary person, but for Xie Jiaoyue, who had just advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage and was very sensitive, this slight temperature change was quite obvious.
Mo Yu, who usually doesn't show much expression, actually blushed.
It seems that even an aloof and handsome guy is still a normal person with blood vessels and can blush!
Xie Jiaoyue suddenly wanted to tease Gongshi Moyu and see where Moyu's limits were.
She first withdrew her arms, which had been casually draped over Gongshi Moyu's shoulders. Then, she extended her left arm and slowly began to circle around Gongshi Moyu's left side, first brushing over his left shoulder, then using her forearm to glide across his slightly bulging neck veins, moving slowly until she placed her left hand on his right shoulder.
He grasped Gong Shi Moyu's right shoulder.
Gong Shi Moyu suddenly stopped walking, her lips trembling as she stammered, "You, you, Jiaoyue, Xie Jiaoyue, what are you doing?"
Xie Jiaoyue said lazily, "I didn't do anything, Brother Moyu. I was afraid you would get tired, so I helped you with some of the effort, thinking it would be easier for you to carry me that way."
After speaking, Xie Jiaoyue launched a surprise attack, suddenly placing her hand on Gongshi Moyu's left shoulder.
The posture is slightly contorted, with the main feature being a large contact area.
Gongshi Moyu stood there, refusing to leave.
"Brother Moyu, what's wrong? They're still waiting for us, we should go back now."
Gong Shi Moyu refused to speak, but slightly moved Xie Jiaoyue's hand, took the storage ring off her finger and held it to her chest, and then took out the wheelchair from it.
Flying mounts cannot be used in the secret realm.
Gong Shi Moyu had long seen through Xie Jiaoyue's deliberate teasing, and he put Xie Jiaoyue down with great exhaustion: "I'll push you along."
Xie Jiaoyue disagreed: "The ground is uneven, it's very bumpy and uncomfortable."
Gong Shi Moyu tried to use magic to lift Xie Jiaoyue up, chair and all, but after a while, he couldn't make it stable and prevent it from shaking.
"Brother Moyu, just carry me on your back. Weren't we walking fast and steadily just now?"
As far as Xie Jiaoyue could see, there wasn't even a single hair of Gong Shi Moyu's. All that remained were endless green canopies and towering brown trunks, supplemented by the occasional birds and small animals.
Good grief, you've gone to such lengths to avoid her, haven't you!
This posture is so weird! Who would carry a wheelchair when taking their immobile younger sister around?
They maintained this posture until they reached their teammates.
Quiet and silent, this is the Qingyuan Secret Realm tonight.
“You guys, this posture,” Feng Qianqian tried hard to find a suitable and harmless adjective, “is quite unique! Is Brother Moyu taking this opportunity to train? As expected of the most famous senior in the clan’s alchemy school, he never forgets to cultivate.”
Xie Jiaoyue rolled her eyes: "Laugh if you want to, no need to hold it in."
Xie Xinghui laughed first: "Sister Jiaoyue, what's wrong with you? Did you fall apart after going out? Brother Moyu, why didn't you just carry her? Is Sister Jiaoyue being dramatic again, insisting on sitting instead of being carried?"
Xie Jiaoyue rolled her eyes at Xie Xinghui: "Me, being dramatic? Dare you say that again? You won't be eating any of Jin Wan's food in the entire secret realm!"
"Pfft, sorry, pfft, I won't say anymore, pfft."
Gong Shi Moyu put Xie Jiaoyue down: "She's not being pretentious. It was me who insisted on doing it this way. It's my fault."
The atmosphere immediately turned cold when the serious-looking older brother spoke.
Xie Xinghui's gaze swept over Gong Shi Moyu and Xie Jiaoyue's faces twice. Something was wrong, really wrong. The atmosphere between the two of them was off.
Unfortunately, if these two people didn't hold the power of life and death over him in the secret realm, he would have definitely broken the atmosphere today.
As her cousin's devoted follower, Xie Xinghui took the initiative to change the subject: "What did you gain from this trip? Sister Jiaoyue, tell me honestly, did you get promoted?"
Xie Jiaoyue sat in the chair and looked up arrogantly: "Hmph, from now on I am a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so you all need to show some respect."
She feigned modesty: "That's not important, it's not our biggest gain at all. I killed that monster, so let's divide the corpse. But let's make it clear first, I'm keeping the demon core for myself."
Jin Wan, Xie Xinghui, and Feng Qianqian readily agreed. They hadn't given anything in return, yet they had helped the big boss obtain a portion of a Foundation Establishment stage demon beast. Could there be anything more joyful than that? Absolutely not!
Let alone demon cores, even if the big shots were only willing to give them one-tenth of it, they would be eternally grateful!
That wasn't all. Xie Jiaoyue took out a small jade box from her storage ring, gently opened it, and a golden light shone on everyone's faces. Under the night sky, everyone's face was bathed in golden light.
"What is this thing?"
I didn't recognize any of the younger ones; none of them were alchemists. The only alchemist, Xin Xiuying, was with the others for some reason, not with them.
Fortunately, there was a pill cultivator with them.
The four little ones all looked up at Gongshi Moyu with expectant eyes.
Gong Shi Moyu suddenly felt like an old phoenix with four golden little phoenixes.
He picked up the golden grass and examined it closely: "I have never seen this in any ancient books, but I can sense that it contains demonic energy."
"I'm not saying it's been contaminated by demonic energy. It grows in a place where spiritual and demonic energy intertwine. The intertwining of spiritual and demonic energy provides it with nourishment, which is why I've never seen it before."
Xie Jiaoyue sighed, "Alas, it turns out that Brother Moyu isn't good at everything. That's right, Brother Moyu can't even carry me on his back, so it's normal that he doesn't recognize a blade of grass."
Gong Shi Moyu: ...
Xie Xinghui's eyes lit up – there's juicy gossip! Tell us, we want more!
But then, apart from that one sentence, the topic swung back to itself.
Xie Jiaoyue asked, "Is there really such a place within the Azure Kite Secret Realm?"
Gong Shi Moyu said, "Yes, the Southwest Region is the closest place to the Demon Realm and has the most sealed lands, but even so, we still occasionally find demonic energy leaks and the presence of demonic beasts. Especially in the last two years, this problem has become more and more serious."
The topic was too serious, which displeased Xie Xinghui. Even if the Demon Realm invaded now, what could a mere Qi Refining stage minion like him do? But if Xie Jiaoyue and Gongshi Moyu got together, one would be his cousin and the other his cousin (not related by blood), so he would only need to pay a dowry, which would be extremely cost-effective.
Xie Xinghui wanted to quickly end the topic: "But we don't recognize this plant. Have you found anything else?"
Xie Jiaoyue actually did have one; she pulled out another map.
Xie Xinghui: ...
You've had such a great harvest!
"Tell me honestly, did you two go to kill monsters or to rob people?"
Author's note: I've been updating continuously for a long time, and then I suddenly found out that I could finally pay for it! So the breath I was holding suddenly dissipated, and I didn't write anything yesterday.
I hope everyone can forgive this corporate slave who often works overtime.
