Chapter 13 (Overhauled)
The morning light shines through the gaps in the trees.
The air is clear and green rain falls among the branches and leaves.
The morning birds chirp.
It seemed like something furry was rubbing against Lian Yu's face.
"Stop it."
Half asleep, Lian Yu pushed the bed away, preparing to turn over and go back to sleep, but he suddenly touched something.
Lian Yu sat up suddenly.
The young man was sleeping peacefully beside Lian Yu.
The slender, fluorescent white body was as translucent and flawless as cold jade, except for a few glaring red marks on the waist.
The two of them were sleeping almost on the floor with only a moon-white robe as a cushion.
Lian Yu's head buzzed.
It's over.
[Xiaoyu, don't worry too much.]
Tutu covered his eyes quite consciously, muttering "Don't look at anything indecent" in pixel font while comforting Lian Yu:
[Anyway, this is just a minor character. If he wants you to take him in as your apprentice, just accept him. After all, Xiaoyu can leave this world after completing the mission.]
Lian Yu was silent for a moment.
"This person is the protagonist."
Tutu blinked his mechanical rabbit eyes, and a question mark slowly appeared above his forehead.
?
"I suddenly felt something was wrong with my body yesterday. It was the poisonous insect that was causing the problem."
Lian Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the boy on the ground.
"And it was precisely because he was the main character that he helped me reduce the burning sensation caused by the insect."
Tutu's eyes widened.
[so……]
"Yes," Lian Yu knew what it was asking, so he answered simply, "I had sex with the protagonist."
And they use the sky as their roof and the ground as their bed, and they are old-fashioned and lead minors astray——
Yehe.
Lian Yu just wanted to smile bitterly.
He clearly just wants to be a cannon fodder, so why do you always treat him like this?
Now that’s good, I guess when the protagonist wakes up, his resentment level will explode again.
Is it so difficult for him just to retire early?
It's raining but I have no tears to cry.
Suddenly, the boy beside him moved.
The long eyelashes trembled, and the sunlight fell on the boy's cat-like nose.
The boy slowly opened his eyes.
"Is there anyone in the bushes?"
The sound came through a thin layer of grass leaves, accompanied by the chaotic footsteps of several people.
"I think so. Did you hear some noise just now?"
One of the male cultivators suddenly laughed obscenely.
"So early in the morning, and in a place like this, don't you think it's..."
"Quick, take out your photo talisman!"
"If that kind of thing gets out, it would be fun."
Several male cultivators were pushing and shoving each other, unable to control their laughter.
One of the male cultivators trotted over to the image talisman. He turned his back to the bushes and backed away, guiding the image talisman into the bushes. He even recited the instructions with considerable professionalism:
"Oh my god, look what we found—"
"What did you find?"
Caught off guard by a pair of cold eyes, the other male cultivators immediately scattered, leaving only the leading male cultivator.
The male cultivator trembled all over and tried to grab the photo talisman floating in the air in a panic.
The next second, a red light pierced the image talisman.
The paper ashes floated in the air and turned into powder when they landed on the ground.
Lian Yu walked out from behind the bushes.
He was seen holding a person horizontally in his arms, whose whole body and face were covered by a moon-white robe, so it was impossible to tell who it was.
Even if it wasn't covered, the male cultivator naturally wouldn't dare to look at it.
I’m afraid that if I take a look at him, the ending will be the same as that photo talisman.
He attracted many secretive glances along the way. It was estimated that within half an hour, Lian Yu's "romantic affair" would spread throughout the entire sect.
The good news is that, firstly, Lian Yu's reputation has become so bad that there is no room for further decline, and secondly, he is sure that no one has seen the face of the boy in his arms.
But the bad news is...
Lian Yu was in a complicated mood.
“Puha!”
As soon as he returned to Xianju, the young man couldn't wait to lift the robe covering his face.
"I'm suffocating."
The naked boy jumped onto the bed like a mud monkey.
Lian Yu couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he quickly wrapped the boy tightly with a quilt.
The boy struggled under his grip.
Lian Yu couldn't bear it any longer and slapped the boy on the butt.
"Don't move."
The air suddenly became quiet.
It was not until he saw the boy's red face that Lian Yu realized what he had just done.
He cleared his throat. "Hey, you're wandering around without any clothes on. You might catch a cold. Where are your clothes?"
The boy stared at him: "How dare you ask me this?"
Oh, that piece of rag torn into pieces, Lian Yu thought it was something else.
"Your clothes are too torn. It embarrasses me. Wear mine first."
Lian Yu released the hand that was holding the boy.
The boy was so excited that most of his body popped out from under the quilt.
"Are you willing to take me as your disciple?"
The continuous rain did not answer.
From the perspective of Cong avoiding the plot, he was unwilling to accept the protagonist as his apprentice no matter what.
But now that this has happened, if he still cares and refuses to accept it, he's afraid that the protagonist will hate him because of it, and all his efforts will be in vain.
Lian Yu nodded.
"Very good!"
The boy cheered like an excited little parrot.
But before the young man finished cheering, Lian Yu continued:
"I know you have someone you like, so let's just pretend that what happened last night never happened."
The air was still again.
The young man looked at him, his brows unconsciously furrowed, as if with some resentment.
Lian Yu didn't understand this.
He thought the other party would be happier, as he had achieved his goal of joining the sect and could also forget what happened last night. Why did he react like this?
Is it that compensation first is not enough?
The young man suddenly stood up, and the fine silk quilt slipped from his snow-white shoulders.
"You agreed to take me in as your apprentice, was that to make it up to me?"
As he spoke, the boy walked step by step to the edge of the bed.
Fearing that the boy would slip and fall, Lian Yu raised his hand to hold the boy's waist. The moment his palm touched the boy's waist and abdomen tightened.
Lian Yu raised his head.
The young man stood on the bed and looked down at Lian Yu, his eyes seemed to be questioning.
Lian Yu is puzzled.
"You're pestering me, aren't you trying to make amends?"
"I,"
The boy's throat was choked and he couldn't speak.
"Yes, yes, so what?"
"Nothing."
Lian Yu was helpless, thinking that the other party was just throwing a tantrum, and he coaxed him softly:
"Okay, come down and put on your clothes first, okay?"
The young man glared at him fiercely, and there was an inexplicable sense of grievance in his expression.
"It's not that I want to be an exhibitionist, it's just that you won't give me clothes to wear!"
Lian Yu's robe looked a little too big for the young man.
The boy cupped his hands and sniffed Lian Yu's cuffs like a puppy.
"May I have your name?"
The young man stopped walking and looked up at Lian Yu.
"My name is Qin Yi."
Lian Yu frowned: "Nonsense."
"I'm not talking nonsense, my name is Qin Yi!"
"Then why did you hesitate?"
"...I don't care, I don't care, I'll just call myself Qin Yi!"
Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with Lian Yu, the boy rolled around on the bed and started acting like a rogue.
"My name is Qin Yi!"
Lian Yu pinched his eyebrows.
"If you say it's called this, then let's call it this."
Anyway, Qin Yi was just a small passer-by in the tens of millions of mission worlds to him.
Like all the other protagonists who will eventually be forgotten by him and who will eventually forget him.
It's just a name, why should I be reluctant to give it up?
Lian Yu closed his eyes and suppressed the strange emotions in his heart.
Satisfied with getting his name, the young boy Qin Yi stopped rolling around. He lay quietly on the bed, looking at Lian Yu with his big, bright black eyes.
Qin Yi suddenly asked:
"Why did you suddenly act like that yesterday?"
"Like that?" Lian Yu didn't react for a moment.
Qin made a gesture to take off his clothes.
"I see!"
Lian Yu's pupils shrank, fearing that Qin Yi would "run naked" again if they disagreed. He held Qin Yi's hands as he took off his clothes and remained silent for a moment.
"Why do you think it is?"
Qin Yi tilted his head.
"Because you're horny?"
"You're right."
Lian Yu spoke nonsense seriously:
"Because I need to absorb other people's vital energy. If I don't absorb other people's vital energy, I will be hungry."
As soon as Lian Yu finished speaking, a loud "gurgling" sound suddenly came from the bedroom.
Qin Yi covered his stomach with his hands, his face flushed.
"I'm hungry. I haven't eaten since yesterday at noon. It's all your fault. You tortured me so much last night—mmmm!"
That’s true. After all, Qin Yi has not yet started practicing and is still a mortal.
For Lian Yu, eating is just a way to spice up his mood, but for Qin Yi, he will starve to death if he doesn't eat.
Lian Yu looked at Qin Yi. The young man seemed determined to stare him to death.
Lian Yu loosened his hand and called in the fairy boy who was waiting outside the couch.
The little fairy boy had red lips and white teeth, and his eyes were full of smiles as he bowed to Lian Yu: "Immortal Lord, you called me?"
Lian Yu nodded: "Go to the kitchen and get some food, bring more."
"Yes, Immortal Venerable."
The fairy boy bowed respectfully to Lian Yu, but his eyes turned unfriendly when he glanced at Qin Yi's clothes.
Qin Yi was glared at.
Qin Yi:?
After returning from the kitchen and making sure that Lian Yu was not in the bedroom, Xiantong slammed the wooden food box on the table.
The soup in the dish tilted and splashed onto Qin Yi's sleeves that were resting on the table.
"Master's clothes!"
Qin Yi screamed and suddenly retracted his hand.
As if angered by his words, the fairy boy glared at him fiercely:
"Do you think you're worthy of being by the Immortal Lord's side? I'm telling you, I'm his fairy child, not yours. Don't expect me to serve you. If you're hungry from now on, go to the kitchen and beg for food!"
After saying that, the fairy boy walked away, leaving Qin Yi alone there.
As soon as Lian Yu came back, he saw Qin Yidai sitting under the window. His pair of bright black eyes were lifeless, and he was staring at some corner in a daze.
"What's going on?"
Lian Yu looked at the almost untouched food box on the table.
"The food in the sect is not to your liking?"
Qin Yi shook his head and walked up silently to help Lian Yu take off his outer robe.
Although Lian Yu is unreliable in the love field, he is one of the ten elders in the sect. For some reason, he was busy with work today and did not come back until now when the moon is high in the sky.
Lian Yu let Qin Yi take off his outer robe.
He observed the boy's expression and felt something was wrong.
Qin Yi suddenly hugged him.
"I want to sleep with you tonight."
The boy's voice was muffled in his chest, sounding a little lost.
Lian Yu was stunned, but finally decided to push Qin Yi away.
"no."
He understood that Qin Yi was only worried that he would not be willing to teach him the art of cultivation, so he had to commit himself to him.
"Why not?"
The more he pushed the boy, the tighter he clung to him.
"Aren't you here to gather essence? Why don't you come to gather essence from me? Or have you been gathering essence from someone else before coming back? Are you cheating!?"
"You think too much."
Lian Yu felt helpless.
"Since I have already agreed to be your master and teach you, I will definitely teach you everything I know. You don't have to force yourself..."
"I don't!"
Qin Yi suddenly raised his head, and he didn't know when he started crying.
"I'm terribly afraid of the dark. That's a good excuse, right?"
Lian Yu suddenly realized something.
He sighed, raised his hand, put it on the boy's thin, slightly trembling shoulders, and patted him gently.
"It's getting dark, let's go to bed."
In the darkness, Lian Yu heard Qin Yi slowly turning over.
After a few breaths, the boy crawled into his arms like a little animal.
"You guessed it right, today's meal is terrible."
Lian Yu chuckled.
"Then what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you tomorrow."
After a brief silence, a muffled voice came from Lian Yu's arms:
"Let me think about it."
Sure enough, the boy fell asleep while thinking about it.
There was a faint sound of breathing in the bedroom, and Lian Yu looked at the moon outside the window.
Suddenly, the young man in his arms gasped: "Don't die!"
It must be a nightmare.
Lian Yu touched the boy's cheek soothingly.
"...Mr. Lian..."
Lian Yu froze.
