Chapter 21
Xia Mo's body was sandwiched between the two men, with only his head sticking out and making a confused "chi" sound.
Looking at his beloved girl leaning in the arms of the tall man, Jiang Yibai frowned unconsciously.
Although I knew it was just a monster, I still felt an indescribable sense of discomfiture in my heart.
As the son of the sect leader, he had seen cultivators hanging out with transformed monsters.
No, how could I think like that? Junior Sister is as pure and noble as a bright moonflower. How could I associate her with such a filthy and immoral thing?
Junior sister is so pure that she would probably blush if she held hands with a man.
After imagining Yu Tai's blushing face, Jiang Yibai said, "Just now, a leaf fell on Junior Sister's shoulder."
Yu Tai, who had emerged from Shu Li's embrace, nodded when she heard his words: "I see, that's how it is. Just tell me, Senior Brother."
The implication is don't touch me without permission.
Jiang Yibai nodded repeatedly, and the fellow students behind him couldn't help but shake their heads.
Alas, Senior Brother Jiang looks so useless when he sees Junior Sister. When will he be able to catch her?
Yu Tai still needed to find a way out of the Bishui Secret Realm and had no intention of wasting time here with them. She was about to leave when one of them spoke up first, "Junior Sister, you've arrived just in time. We've discovered that this secret realm is about to collapse. Don't run around; stay with us."
Yu Tai:?
"Brother...how did you know this secret realm was about to collapse?" Yu Tai knew this from reading the original book, but how did these supporting characters know?!
However, in the original book, there were indeed a few disciples of Qingshan Sword Sect who successfully broke out and were among the few survivors of the disaster.
"Junior Sister, you were one of the first to enter the secret realm, so you might not know. Something unexpected happened in the Bishui Secret Realm when we entered, and for some reason it was closed early."
Yu Tai feigned surprise: "Is there such a thing? I just wanted to get in quickly and not be disturbed by those gazes anymore."
Hearing her say this, those who had originally thought she was eager for quick success and instant benefits showed shame on their faces.
So that's how it is. It was because they failed to protect their junior sister that she was disturbed by rumors.
"Yes, I've read in ancient books that only secret realms containing heavenly treasures will close their entrances prematurely when they are about to be unable to bear the weight of the treasures. This also means that the secret realm is not far from collapse."
Yu Tai took another look at the disciple who was speaking.
She remembered that his name was Wenshu. Although he had just established his foundation, he was known as a mobile library.
I don't know who is more knowledgeable, Shu Li or him.
"I see. Then how do we get out?" It would save us the trouble of looking for it ourselves.
The clerk smiled confidently, "The collapse of the secret realm always starts from the border. We calculated the location where we first fell and found that if we continue in this direction, we will reach the border."
Yu Tai nodded. So that’s how it is.
When she woke up, she found that they were in a forest that looked very ordinary compared to the Giant Forest. She guessed that they might run into those people from Qingshan Sword Sect.
Because Shu Li also woke up here and ran into this group of people.
"There's no time to lose, let's set off quickly." Yu Tai urged, a little impatient.
She took Shu Li and Xia Mo to the back of the team, thinking that her emotions were indeed abnormal.
She was so irritable, as if something in her heart was urging her on.
“What should I do?” she asked.
Seeing her actively asking, the system said cheerfully, "Just ask the male lead for some righteousness as usual. However, as your cultivation grows, kissing alone may not be enough. Please be aware of this, host."
Not enough kissing?
Yu Tai tilted her head to take a look, and Shu Li, who was walking beside her, tilted his head with a sense of knowingness, and the pair of eyes covered by the veil seemed to be looking at her.
She turned around immediately.
Jiang Yibai, who was walking at the front of the team and often looked back at Yu Tai, caught the little movements between the two and frowned slightly.
Why is it so strange?
Is Junior Sister having a quarrel with a demon beast? How is that possible?
"Brother, please stop being jealous. It's just a monster." A cultivator who was acting lazily nearby whispered.
Jiang Yibai glanced at him and said, "You're overthinking it. Shut up quickly and don't let Junior Sister hear it."
The monk didn't take it seriously: "Don't worry, my cultivation level is much higher than that of Junior Sister, she won't be able to hear it."
Yu Tai: Sorry, I heard it clearly.
She leaned towards Shu Li, reached into his veil, grabbed his wrist, circled her fingers on his protruding wrist bone, and rubbed it a few times.
I have to say that the male protagonist is really a good guy. Just by touching him like this, the urgency and irritability in my heart seemed to fade away.
System: [......] You just want to cover up your annoyance.
Shu Li didn't know what she was going to do, but she didn't struggle and just let her hold her hand.
Yu Tai thought that this man's attitude had changed a lot. If he had done this a few days ago, he would have definitely thought of a way to make her let go. But now, he was so obedient that it seemed as if he would not resist even if she did something more excessive.
Tsk, boring.
Although she thought so, Yu Tai didn't let go for the sake of a little peace.
The group walked for a long time and it was getting dark, so they needed to find a place to rest.
It gets dark faster in the Bishui Secret Realm than outside. The group finally found a cave where no monsters lived before dark.
Jiang Yibai cleared a clean area and said to Yu Tai who walked in, "Junior sister, please sit here."
Yu Tai wanted to refuse, but Jiang Yibai was indeed a qualified bootlicker. The place he chose happened to be the quietest one, and she fell in love with it at first sight. She didn't want to force herself to change her sitting place just to refuse Jiang Yibai.
"Thank you, Brother Jiang."
Seeing Yu Tai sitting down in the seat he had prepared, Jiang Yibai's eyes were filled with excitement.
But when he saw the monster was about to sit next to Yu Tai, his body reacted before his brain and he sat down first.
Shu Li, whose seat was taken away, paused, and Xia Mo grinned at Jiang Yibai with some dissatisfaction.
"Come here." Yu Tai, who had originally closed his eyes and was meditating, suddenly spoke, raised his chin slightly and pointed to his empty left side.
Shu Li walked to the seat on the left and sat down.
It is even closer to Yu Tai than Jiang Yibai is.
Jiang Yibai's eyes dimmed.
It just so happened that the cultivator who had been joking with him earlier saw this scene and sent a message to Jiang Yibai: "Brother, this demon beast is such an eyesore. Do you want me to help you get rid of it?"
Jiang Yibai didn't want to admit that a monster could hinder his relationship with Yu Tai, so he politely rejected his junior brother's proposal.
Yu Tai curled her lips silently.
The secret transmission of the Foundation Establishment Stage was like nothing under the nose of her, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage.
