Immortal Fairies Always Have Designs on Me-Chapter 86 - 77 "As a Senior Sister, shouldn’t I be more patient?
Chapter 86: Chapter 77 "As a Senior Sister, shouldn’t I be more patient?
As Pei Wanyu’s voice fell, Xiao Yinruo’s originally calm expression showed slight changes, and she looked towards the direction of Taichu Peak with a cold snort: "Even without you saying so, I would still go to find you!"
Lu Jin’an curiously glanced at Xiao Yinruo. What dispute did the Palace Master of Qingmiao Palace have with her that caused such a big emotional fluctuation?
While thinking, Xiao Yinruo slapped an invitation card towards Lu Jin’an, who hurriedly reached out to catch it. Then, Xiao Yinruo turned her head to the Vice Palace Master and elders under her and said, "You go and rest first."
Then she addressed Zhu Nanzhi, "Come with me."
"I won’t go!" Zhu Nanzhi looked at her Master, thinking that she had finally seen her husband; there was no way she would leave with her.
Unless her husband went too.
Xiao Yinruo quickly walked a few steps to Zhu Nanzhi’s front: "He doesn’t even consider you his wife, yet you still stand by him?"
Zhu Nanzhi glanced at Lu Jin’an: "This is our agreement."
"..."
Xiao Yinruo took a deep breath, wondering what kind of ’cabbage’ she had raised here?
Knowing everything from Han Wu, she naturally knew that Lu Jin’an and Nanzhi’s marriage was fake and that they hadn’t even gone through the ceremonial hall. But such a fake marriage had this fresh ’cabbage’ turning away like this?
After calming herself, she lowered her voice: "Are you unwilling to come with me to find Pei Wanyu to get a rightful name for you and Lu Jin’an?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Nanzhi’s eyes suddenly brightened, but after glancing at Lu Jin’an, she held back the impulse.
After parting in the Nanzhuo Domain, she didn’t develop her husband’s feelings for her yet. Wouldn’t directly going to find her husband’s Master only increase his annoyance?
Her advantage over her husband was so significant; she couldn’t fall behind step by step because of one wrong move.
So Zhu Nanzhi once again rejected Xiao Yinruo: "Master, we young people will handle our own issues, no need for you to worry...
I know you’re doing it for my good, Master, but only what I gain for myself is truly mine, right?"
"You..." Xiao Yinruo felt she’d be angered to faint by this apprentice sooner or later, so she directly waved her sleeve and left: "Suit yourself, I won’t bother anymore!"
Even though the others in Qingmiao Palace were curious that the Holy Daughter had ’hooked up’ with the Wandao Sect’s Senior Brother, seeing the Palace Master leave, how could they dare to ask more?
After all, the Holy Daughter was raised by the Palace Master herself, and though she might be helpless with anger at the Holy Daughter, she was quite strict when it came to reprimanding them when necessary.
So they could only reluctantly leave the ’good show’ scene under the Wandao Sect elder’s reception... except for Nanzhi’s close maid, Han Wu.
On the side, Zhao Shize couldn’t help but nudge Jiang Wuya with his elbow: "Will Junior Master Pei fight with Palace Master Xiao for their respective disciples? I really want to go to Taichu Peak to see."
Jiang Wuya gave him a sidelong glance: "Even if Junior Master Pei and Palace Master Xiao fought, the pressure released from them could kill you and destroy your path. Do you want to die?"
"That’s true..." Zhao Shize hesitated, looking at Lu Jin’an: "It seems that Senior Brother wasn’t in seclusion before but went out for training without telling us..."
"Nonsense." Guan Wen rolled her eyes at the Third Senior Brother. Everyone present was no fool; they could naturally guess the cause and effect.
The Senior Brother went out for training, happened to meet Qingmiao Palace’s Holy Daughter Zhu Nanzhi who was in the process of Red Dust Heart Refining, and then he married her, spending over a year together...
"Senior Brother clearly already has Senior Mu." Guan Wen mumbled: "Why did he still marry Holy Daughter Zhu then?"
"Senior Brother is also a man after all..." Zhao Shize mumbled, then added: "But indeed, given Senior Brother’s character and strength, he shouldn’t have agreed to Holy Daughter Zhu..."
"Exactly," Guan Wen nodded: "Even if Holy Daughter Zhu’s Red Dust Heart Refining path is one of romance and she chose Senior Brother, Senior Brother wouldn’t just comply with her... It couldn’t be that he was coerced?" freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Do you think that’s possible?" Jiang Wuya chuckled: "Does she have the strength to coerce Senior Brother?"
"Currently, Holy Daughter Zhu’s cultivation is not above Senior Brother’s, let alone a year ago. Senior Brother couldn’t have been coerced, but if that’s the case..."
Guan Wen said hesitantly, and Zhao Shize directly picked up the thread: "So Senior Brother was also moved by beauty, huh."
Guan Wen gave Zhao Shize a sideways look: "Do you think everyone’s like you? There must be some underlying reason."
Zhao Shize shrugged without saying more. Anyway, he just wanted to be an onlooker; this affair of jealousy happening to the Senior Brother who was focused on cultivation and ascension was too interesting.
At this point, Jiang Wuya cautiously began, "Isn’t Senior Mu at a disadvantage now?"
"It’s impressive that Second Senior Brother noticed this." Guan Wen smiled, quickly elbowing him: "Commendable."
Jiang Wuya glared at her and was about to speak when the Fourth Junior Sister spoke in an even lower voice: "But don’t worry, Senior Mu hasn’t lost yet~"
"Oh?" Zhao Shize leaned in to ask, "Senior Mu has a plan?"
"Uh-huh~" Guan Wen pointed at Lu Jin’an: "You’ll know soon enough."
Lu Jin’an didn’t mind his junior brother and sister’s whispering in varied tones. After all, his chaotic scene was just starting, far from ending.
Holding the invitation card, he went to the nearby table, sat down, and prepared to start copying the congratulations written on it.
Ever since Zheng Dongliu took the position of Sect Master, the Wandao Sect no longer publicly read the congratulatory gifts on the invitation card, only having them copied for subsequent return gifts.
Thinking about how to ’mediate’ between his Senior Sister and Nanzhi, Lu Jin’an picked up a brush, only to find that he hadn’t prepared the ink yet today.
Hmm?
It should have been prepared according to reason...
While thinking, he noticed a hint of coldness nearby. Looking over, the elegantly cold Senior Sister gently rolled up her sleeves and quietly took the inkstone to start grinding ink.
Guan Wen smiled watching this scene. Senior Mu, like Junior Master Pei, clearly knew Holy Daughter Zhu’s identity beforehand, so her preparation was also thorough.
’Junior Sister Guan, tomorrow I’ll help Junior Brother grind ink.’
Remembering the heads-up from Senior Mu, Guan Wen’s smile grew wider. As expected, Senior Mu liked Senior Brother very much, yet Senior Brother hadn’t noticed?
She turned to look at the cold-faced Zhu Nanzhi, wondering what the Qingmiao Palace Holy Daughter would do next?
Guan Wen thought with some expectation, not wanting to see a fight but rather a ’palace fight’.
The ’palace fight’ between the Cold Saintess and the aloof Sword Immortal was bound to be interesting~
And Senior Brother... could he handle it?
Lu Jin’an looked at his Senior Sister’s profile and softly said, "Thank you."
"It’s my duty."
"And for going easy on me earlier," Lu Jin’an added.
"You’re welcome." Mu Qingyue seemed to turn to speak to Zhu Nanzhi: "Junior Brother’s friend is not very old, but quite temperamental. As his Senior Sister..."
She paused, gripping the ink stick a bit tighter—
"Could you not bear it a little?"
