Chapter 90: A Grand Entrance (Tenth Update)

As no one knew about Xiao Zhang’s true identity, everyone assumed that Ye Wenxin was just having a spat with Xiao Zhang, leading to the current situation. Ye Wenxin felt helpless; she was wrapped in the rope along with her blanket, and then the other followers sawed off her wooden bed.

Ye Wenxin lay there, watching as her little brothers enthusiastically carried her and her bed out, attracting a crowd of onlookers.

Some wanted to laugh, but Ye Wenxin’s group was well-known among the outer disciples, so they held back to avoid getting beaten up by one of the little brothers.

Ye Wenxin gave up struggling; she could only laugh and cry helplessly.

As she was carried on the bed, she felt dizzy from all the rocking. The followers ran desperately, determined to catch up with Xiao Zhang before she left.

“Sister-in-law.”

“Sister-in-law!”

The little brothers shouted to Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang turned around in confusion, and upon seeing Ye Wenxin tightly bound on the bed, she was dumbfounded.

“You guys…What the hell are you doing!” Xiao Zhang was both moved and felt it was really funny, she never dreamed this group of little brothers would truss up Ye Wenxin and bring her over for her sake.

“Big Sister said she agrees to apologize, and pleads for you to stay.”

“Right, right, Big Sister said she would die if you leave.”

The little brothers’ EQ suddenly went online, digging a pit for Ye Wenxin with all their might.

“Hey, Fatty, Cobra, you guys think I’ve fainted?! Stop spouting crap with your eyes open, believe it or not, I will whip you guys.” Ye Wenxin’s blood pressure started to rise again. Sometimes she even felt that QI Deviation was the combination of high blood pressure and heart disease, and Ye Wenxin felt she was really in a dangerous state every time her emotions grew too agitated.

She was currently on the edge, and could not shake the feeling that she had raised a pack of white-eyed wolves.

Even if Xiao Zhang was more gentle, more charming, and more capable than her, in short…

Although Ye Wenxin still thought she herself had many merits, looking at the little brothers shedding bitter tears, left Ye Wenxin feeling her, this Big Sister, was too miserable.

She wore a stern face, and then saw Xiao Zhang walking towards her with a smile.

“I really didn’t think you’d come, even though it’s in this way.” Xiao Zhang laughed at Ye Wenxin’s embarrassment, untying the rope so Ye Wenxin could get out.

“Don’t get out yet, you’re still wearing…” But Ye Wenxin had already emerged. As Xiao Zhang was about to stop her, she realized that Ye Wenxin was fully dressed and did not seem like she had just been lifted up while asleep.

Xiao Zhang was taken aback, her eyes moistening involuntarily.

“What are you getting emotional for? I’m just used to getting up early.” Ye Wenxin felt a bit uneasy. She had actually planned to secretly watch Xiao Zhang leave. She had not expected her subordinates to meddle and tie her up like this. If not for that, she would not have looked so disheveled.

“Right, you love getting up early, you never skip classes, I get it.” Xiao Zhang wiped away her tears and gave Ye Wenxin a quick hug before pulling away.

“I’ll come back to find you.”

“It’s fine, really.” Ye Wenxin shook her head. She knew not how long she could stay in the Azure Wings Sect. Even if Xiaozhang came to find her, it might all be in vain.

But Ye Wenxin knew where Xiao Zhang was headed, and she had plenty of time to go to her.

“I’ll find you,” Xiao Zhang repeated again, with no hint of backing down in her eyes.

“Forget it, as long as you’re happy,” Ye Wenxin relented. She felt that Xiao Zhang would soon forget about her and this incident. Perhaps there was no need to remind her too much.

Their relationship was not at the point of sharing life and death anyway.

Ye Wenxin simply admired Xiao Zhang, nothing more.

As for Xiao Zhang’s opinion of her, Ye Wenxin did not care.

With the warm moment over, Xiao Zhang left without looking back, while the little brothers nearby wailed like mourners, making Ye Wenxin feel uncomfortable.

“Stop crying. Who tied me up just now? Come here!”

Ye Wenxin’s silver needles appeared in her hands, and the several little brothers obediently stepped forward. Ye Wenxin used the needles to target their laugh points.

“That was Xiao Zhang’s choice. Why cry? We should be happy for her!” Ye Wenxin’s eyes wandered over as she watched a few people trying to escape behind her. Quickly pulling out her acupuncture needles, she swiftly targeted their laugh points.

With everyone now lying on the ground laughing heartily, the scene became even more spectacular. Ye Wenxin stood there, watching Xiaozhang fly away on her sword, growing more distant.

With the conclusion of a promise and someone’s departure, Ye Wenxin could not help but feel a sense of loss.

Just like the ending of a good novel, even though the conclusion was perfect, there was still a sense of something missing. No matter the story or the content, there was never complete satisfaction.

Ye Wenxin labeled it as a distraction, and now she probably needed a long time to digest this distraction. As the breeze blew, Ye Wenxin adjusted her bangs, leaving without looking back…

Fortunately, busy days began as well. This year’s Immortal Sect Grand Tournament would be held in the Azure Wings Sect, and with just a few months left before it began, every corner of the sect was bustling with the event’s preparations.

To make the tournament more interesting, various activities such as literary competitions, sword fights, and spirit beast battles were organized. Ye Wenxin was naturally busy too, but her busyness was in refining third-grade pills.

Ling Jue instructed her to enter closed door training during this time to master the refining of third-grade pills proficiently, then directly apply for the position of Advanced Alchemist. She seemed to growing impatient, perhaps because after the Immortal Sect Grand Tournament ended, Ling Jue would also leave.

For the sake of something in Fairy Fengya’s hands, Ling Jue promised to teach Alchemy at the Azure Wings Sect for a year. Now that the year-long agreement was coming to an end, the Azure Wings Sect had also found an Advanced Alchemist from outside. They plan to let Ling Jue train him for a while and then have this Alchemist take over the Alchemy course in the future.

This teacher’s surname was Mu, named Mu Linsen.

He was a thirty-year-old young man with a relatively mild temperament, but somewhat stubborn. Even Ling Jue who had a good temper often argued with Mu Linsen due to his seriousness towards Alchemy.

In this situation, the helpless Sect Master of the Azure Wings Sect had to ask Ye Wenxin for help, so Ye Wenxin also moved into the Alchemy Workshop. Every day, Ling Jue would quarrel with Mu Linsen due to differences in Alchemy habits, and Ye Wenxin had to act as a peacemaker.

“Wenxin, do you have someone you like? My son is quite clever,” Mu Linsen was very fond of Ye Wenxin, wishing to bind her to be his own daughter.

As a male, Ling Jue inadvertently revealed a feminine side in front of Ye Wenxin, which led Mu Linsen to suspect Ling Jue of having homosexual tendencies, causing him to worry about his own safety.

Therefore, Ye Wenxin’s life became very lively.

However, in the past half month, she had also become increasingly proficient in crafting third-grade pills.

With her previous practice using the fifth-grade Heart-Cleansing Pill and another month of practice, she had completely mastered the method of crafting third-grade pills.

Ling Jue was extremely satisfied with Ye Wenxin’s progress and finally decided to take her to the largest nearby town to upgrade her qualification as an Alchemist before the Immortal Sect Grand Tournament began.

Ye Wenxin, who had not left the mountain for a long time, was very happy. Although Mu Linsen also wanted to go with them, Ling Jue had already handed over the teaching to Mu Linsen, so he had to give up.

“Be careful, Wenxin, this Ling Jue is quite unpredictable.”

“Don’t worry, Big Brother Ling prefers men, hehehe, he won’t make a move on me.” Ye Wenxin reassuredly whispered to Mu Linsen, mastering more and more the art of acting like a child. As long as she remained innocent and harmless, she could easily evoke everyone’s protective instincts.

Naturally, to appear more childlike, Ye Wenxin even deliberately reduced her height a bit.

“Wenxin, why do I feel like you’ve gotten a bit shorter?” Ling Jue, who cared the most about Ye Wenxin, always noticed her changes first. This scared Ye Wenxin, so she immediately adjusted her height back to normal.

Now, she was almost 1.7 meters tall, quite tall for a fourteen-year-old girl. Ling Jue’s height was about the same as hers now, but to maintain her reputation as the Peerless Gentleman, she wore boots with built-in heightening pads, making Ye Wenxin realize that rumors were indeed deceptive.

The journey was pleasant, and they did not encounter much trouble. However, what made Ye Wenxin frustrated was that Ling Jue became tense right after descending the mountain.

Her health condition was already not good, and this tension was making her increasingly uncomfortable. Ye Wenxin made sure there were no suspicious people around before quietly asking, “Big Sister Ling, I haven’t seen you dressed as a woman for a long time, and there’s no one around here that we know.”

“Wenxin, this place is much more dangerous than the Azure Wings Sect.”

“Are you afraid to wear women’s clothes, or are you afraid of wearing them in front of me?” Ye Wenxin felt that she needed to take this opportunity to address the issue of Ling Jue’s Yin-Yang Transformation.

Recently, Ye Wenxin had not had time to properly discuss this issue with Ling Jue due to the matter concerning Mu Linsen and the Advanced Alchemist qualification.

“My… my health condition has been a bit poor lately, so it’s hard to look presentable,” Ling Jue admitted, knowing that she could not hide the truth, but she also did not want to lift the Yin-Yang Transformation.

“It’s alright, Big Sister. No matter how you look, I still think you’re the most beautiful,” Ye Wenxin sincerely expressed, but Ling Jue understood that Ye Wenxin was just trying to comfort her.

“And besides, I feel really uncomfortable around men. Can you please change back? Let’s go back to the inn early today. I want to take a good look at you,” Ye Wenxin appealed, even willing to give up shopping.

Ling Jue hesitated for a moment but ultimately nodded.

“But I have to warn you, I’m really in a bad condition right now. If I scare you, I won’t take responsibility.”

“I’ve said it before, Big Sister Ling, you’ll always be the most beautiful in my heart,” Ye Wenxin stubbornly repeated, and Ling Jue’s lips curved slightly. Even though she knew Ye Wenxin’s words were fake, to Ling Jue, they were still the most beautiful words of affection.
