Looking at her masterpiece Ji Yan was quite satisfied and wanted to show him to everyone, and just as she was about to take him out, she caught a glimpse of his hand.

His hands were still as terrifying as always, and his nails were a bit too long.

After a little thought, she picked up scissors from the side, squatted in front of him, and grabbed one of his fingers to cut his nail.

Just as she kept hold of his finger, he swiftly withdrew his hand. Aware of her intention he sat stiffly with his hand behind his back, and the word ‘Don’t even think about it’ written all over him.

Ji Yan pulled his sleeve, “Zhuo Zhuo, cut it.”

Yin Xuezhuo frowned, his expression stiff, “No.”

Was she pushing too hard?

Seeing him uncooperative, Ji Yan wanted to move rough, but her strength was no match for him, so she could only continue to look at him pitifully, he snorted coldly and turned his head indifferently.

Cutting nails was too much. Although it was not as same as pulling scales, he hated being manipulated like this. However, the person in front of him has long liked to be dumped by him. Incredibly shameless, even after knowing that he did not want to still pester him stubbornly.

“Zhuo Zhuo, your nails are easy to expose, and they will grow back after you cut them off. Just cut them off, OK?”

“Look at my hands. Short nails are more convenient.”

Ji Yan dangled her hand in front of his eyes. Her fingers were slender and her nails were pale pink, very clean and beautiful. The little girl’s eyes were twinkling as bright as stars, looking hopefully at him. 

“No.” Came Yin Xuezhuo’s sharp reply. 

“But, it will expose you.” Ji Yan collapsed and whined.

A hint of ruthlessness swept across the bottom of Yin Xuezhuo’s eyes “Then I will kill them.”

Tsk, this person is still so contentious even now.

Ji Yan was tempted to say he was already in this state, he couldn’t even beat her, yet he was still fighting Shao Bai and Wan Qiu Jian, perhaps he might be crazy.

But of course, she knew that she had to go along with his way to smoother him, so she replied: “Yes, yes, you are very powerful, but if you get hurt, I’ll be in a lot of pain.”

She rose to her feet and lowered her eyes slightly, showing a pitiful look. “Not only will my body hurt, but I will also feel distressed.”

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

A complicated look flashed on his face as if he were trying to say something, and he was so relentless that he looked at her with difficulty.

There seemed to be a little shaken.

Ji Yan made persistent efforts, “Do you have the heart to make me feel so bad? I’m doing it for you.”

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

Without words, he lowered his eyes. Ji Yan from the corner of her eyes peeked a glance at him, quietly stretched out her hand, and touched his hand. He also reluctantly struggled a little, still being pulled by her. Ji Yan took advantage of his confused state, and before he could repent, she took the scissors and clicked ten fingernails very quickly.

Cutting Yin Xuezhuo’s nails was fun, he was like a cat, who got his nail cut forcibly, a little reluctant and unable to retract his claws, very cute, Ji Yan stifled a laugh in her heart.

Who told you to try to be strong before and make a fool of yourself?

See you have to pay the price now.

After trimming his nails, Ji Yan put a little white powder on the back of his hand to cover the black veins, pulled him up, and walked out of the house.

Kong Yu, who had been waiting impatiently outside the house for a long time, was pacing back and forth. Hearing the sound, he looked over, his eyes fell on the exquisite young man behind Ji Yan, and his expression froze.

Crap.

This, this… this is Yin Xuezhuo?

Kong Yu’s eyes widened, and he looked up and down at the young man in disbelief. His hair was tied up, his eyebrows were clear and clean, and his complexion was like jade. The light blue brocade dress was tied around his waist, lining the thin waist and tall figure, blue hairband was fluttering in the wind, and the wind stirred his broad sleeves.

At first glance, he himself wondered who this aristocrat was, but who could have imagined that it was the big demon?

Kong Yu opened his mouth, but no words came. The gap between the before and after was too big, it was…too outrageous.

Not to mention him, even if Yin Miaorou was here, she might not recognize him.

Ji Yan smiled and said, “How about it? Does Zhuo Zhuo look good!”

Kong Yu: “…Yes.” apart from yes, no word came out of his mouth.

Too good looking.

So good-looking that he hasn’t recovered a bit.

Kong Yu turned around and walked outside. When he crossed the threshold, he almost staggered and fell out of the mud.

–

Ji Yan grandly led Yin Xuezhuo back. 

In the Inn.

By the time Shao Xin woke up, he was already in the inn, and apart from Kong Yu and Ji Yan, there were four unknown male disciples were there, from the clothes he knew they were all from Kunning Sect.

Shao Xin looked dazed, and raised his hand to caress his forehead. “I…what’s wrong with me.”

“When you went to save Miss Ji, you were attacked by other wooden puppets. Fortunately, I came in time and brought you back with Miss Ji.” Kong Yu smiled slightly, lowered his head, and asked in concern: “Brother, how are you feeling now?”

Shao Xin’s head was dizzy and felt a little sore in the back of his neck, as if he had been hit hard by something, and really couldn’t tell, his heart was a little skeptical, but he still responded, “I’m fine, thank you, big brother.”

“You don’t have to be polite,” Kong Yu said with smiled and looked at the four disciples behind him, “These are the newly recruited inner disciples of the Kunning Sect. I selected four of them to go with us to find the head under the cliff…you few, this is your Master Shao.”

Although Shao Xin joined the Sect later and didn’t have seniority, Kong Yu was an elder now, and among them, Kong Yu’s apprentices were mixed in, so it was not an exaggeration to call him a Master.

Ji Yan carefully glanced at Yin Xuezhuo, who was standing at the very edge, a little afraid that he would not cooperate.

And just as she expected, the other three disciples all greeted him, but only Yin Xuezhuo didn’t open his mouth.

Kong Yu again smiled submissively and said: “This is my cousin Kong Xu, he is sword-obsessed, aloof in nature, and also dumb. So junior brother, don’t mind.”
