Chapter 9: Your Senior and Junior Sister, Your Relationship Is Quite Good

Spiritual power flowed between their palms.

The spiritual power from Shen Wangchen’s body was cold and pure, it belonged to a powerful cultivator at the Unity Stage who had been cultivating for nearly a thousand years.

If he hadn’t already refined his spiritual power in his body, Su Jiu, as an ordinary Golden Core Stage disciple, would definitely not be able to withstand his spiritual power and would have her meridians severed.

His palm pressed against Su Jiu’s, his palm was as cold as ice, his knuckles and long fingers were tinged with a faint redness, and the light flickered between them.

The cool and refreshing spiritual energy flowed into Su Jiu’s body, like a thirsty and parched traveler in the desert encountering a spring, she immediately pressed her palm even tighter against Shen Wangchen’s, and that wasn’t all, her fingertips kept trying to slip between Shen Wangchen’s fingers, wanting to intertwine their fingers.

Shen Wangchen frowned slightly, he resisted a few times, seeing that she was insistent, he could only let her have her way, he slightly spread his palm, allowing Su Jiu to insert her ten fingers into his, before closing them contentedly.

Outside, the sky gradually darkened, the inky black night and the tide-like silence enveloped the bedroom.

Behind a door, Mu Yunqing stood under the eaves, his face was tinged with worry, he kept looking back.

He had changed into a sparrow-plum-colored long robe, and he was still wearing a crown on his head, neatly gathering all his hair, his eyebrows were like distant mountains, his eyes were like a crescent moon, his face was handsome and gentle, his pale lips were slightly pursed.

As Mu Yunqing was standing there in a daze, he saw a figure in the night, carrying a lantern, slowly walking up the steps, the sound came before the person.

“Yo? It’s so late, why isn’t Little Yunqing sleeping, why are you guarding your Master’s door?”

Mu Yunqing looked in the direction of the voice, the first thing he saw was the hand holding the lantern.

An adult man’s hand, thick and large, with prominent knuckles, long and strong fingers, the purple veins on the back of his hand were faintly pulsating and winding upwards, hidden in the wide sleeves.

Looking up, he saw the handsome face that was always smiling, as beautiful as a god’s creation.

Even though Mu Yunqing was used to seeing his own Master’s outstanding appearance, every time he saw Cang Qiansxue, he couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

Cang Qiansxue’s beauty was different from Shen Wangchen’s.

If Shen Wangchen was a celestial being who was unstained by the dust of the mortal world, a clear spring flowing quietly in the pine forest, a bright moon hanging high in the mountains and fields,

Holy and inviolable.

Then Cang Qiansxue was filled with the dust of the mortal world.

His appearance was actually different from the current aesthetic of the cultivation world for ethereal and elegant beauty, instead, he was arrogant, domineering, and extremely charmingly handsome.

His sword eyebrows flew into his temples, his deep brow ridges, his eyes that seemed to smile but didn’t, his high nose bridge,

And his overly thin lips.

There was a rumor in the mortal world that when Cang Qiansxue was the Human Emperor who unified the continent, he had massacred a city.

Mu Yunqing didn’t believe it when he was the Crown Prince, but after seeing Cang Qiansxue, even though he had now entered the immortal path, he was dressed in purple, and lived on Mount Buwang, but the first time he saw him, Mu Yunqing had his doubts.

Although he knew that judging people by their appearance was not right.

Mu Yunqing collected his thoughts, raised his hand to salute, but didn’t answer, instead, he asked, “Why isn’t Uncle Master resting yet? Are you not used to it?”

Cang Qiansxue looked at him with a smirk, raised his hand, and shone the lantern on Mu Yunqing’s chin, suddenly he let out a long “Huh.”

Mu Yunqing was startled, he subconsciously raised his hand to touch his neck.

When he was waiting for Shen Wangchen to come to Ice Cold Gorge in the afternoon, although he had tied Su Jiu up with the Binding Immortal Rope, he had held back a little because he was afraid of hurting her, but unexpectedly, Su Jiu broke free and pounced on him, biting his neck.

When he went out just now, he saw the bite mark, he covered it with ointment, could it still be obvious?

“Uncle Master…”

His ears turned slightly red, he was about to explain, but he saw Cang Qiansxue pursed his lips and smiled, showing a look of “I understand.”

“Don’t worry, Uncle Master won’t tell your Master.” Cang Qiansxue said this, he raised his leg and was about to walk into Shen Wangchen’s bedroom.

He had sent several messages to Shen Wangchen just now, wanting to invite him to practice swordsmanship on the mountaintop and watch the sunrise tomorrow, but Shen Wangchen didn’t reply for a long time, Cang Qiansxue felt something was wrong, so he simply came to find him himself.

Seeing that he was about to push the door open, Mu Yunqing quickly stood in front of him, his face full of apology, “Uncle Master, Yunqing is being rude, but Master is busy now, I’m afraid he doesn’t have time to see Uncle Master.”

“Busy?”

Cang Qiansxue raised his eyebrows, his gaze fell on Mu Yunqing, he scrutinized him for a moment, then suddenly asked, “Where’s your junior sister?”

Mu Yunqing was stunned, Cang Qiansxue’s topic jumped too fast, he was a little caught off guard.

“My junior sister…”

Mu Yunqing couldn’t say that Su Jiu was in Shen Wangchen’s bedroom, after all, no matter what, even in the cultivation world, men and women were different, he was afraid that if it got out, it would damage Su Jiu’s reputation.

Cang Qiansxue’s eyes narrowed slightly, seeing Mu Yunqing’s appearance, he immediately used his spiritual sense to probe into the room, everything else was clear, but when he got close to the bed, his spiritual sense was suddenly bounced back.

He quickly showed a surprised expression.

“Little Su Jiu is in the room?”

Cang Qiansxue reacted very quickly, he remembered the jar of wine he and Su Jiu had drunk at noon.

He only drank a small cup, and he felt uncomfortable for the whole afternoon, even with his technique, he couldn’t expel the poison, he could only forcibly suppress it.

Su Jiu had drunk a whole jar!

Cang Qiansxue originally thought that she must have had an antidote, that’s why she dared to drink it, but looking at her like this…

She didn’t have an antidote?

Cang Qiansxue’s brows furrowed.

That love potion was no ordinary poison, even with his current late-Unity Stage cultivation, it was difficult to suppress it, Su Jiu, a Golden Core Stage disciple, it was absolutely impossible for her to endure it.

That meant Shen Wangchen was helping her.

As for how he was helping, Cang Qiansxue wasn’t worried.

He had been friends with Shen Wangchen for hundreds of years, and he naturally knew that his heart was like glass, he was emotionless and loveless, and he had never had any thoughts about the mundane affairs of men and women.

Even if he was helping, he would definitely be doing it properly and ethically.

Thinking about this, Cang Qiansxue wasn’t in a hurry to go in.

After all, Su Jiu’s life was a life, she was his friend’s disciple, and she seemed to have many secrets, Cang Qiansxue still hoped she would live.

Seeing that Cang Qiansxue had given up on going in, Mu Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief, then he asked hesitantly, “Uncle Master, did you hear…”

“Hmm?”

Cang Qiansxue turned his head to look at him, seeing Mu Yunqing, who was usually the most stable and reliable, and decisive in his actions, now stammering, he couldn’t help but find it funny.

“What do you want to ask?” He lifted his lantern, sat down on the stone steps, and raised his chin towards Mu Yunqing, “Sit down and talk.”

Mu Yunqing also sat down, and after a while, he said, “Uncle Master, did you hear my junior sister’s thoughts?”

Cang Qiansxue had come here to discuss this matter with Shen Wangchen.

“I just arrived at Qianyuan Sect today, I haven’t seen Little Su Jiu before, I don’t know when you started being able to hear her thoughts?”

Mu Yunqing frowned and said, “Just today. Even last night when I met her, I didn’t hear anything.”

Cang Qiansxue propped his elbow on his knee, his hand supporting his chin, he pondered.

Suddenly being able to hear someone’s thoughts, if it wasn’t because she had some kind of magic artifact, then there was something strange about her.

Mu Yunqing also thought of this.

He shook his head, “My junior sister came back from the Half-Moon Secret Realm half a month ago, she didn’t get anything except some herbs, and all the herbs were handed over to the sect.”

“Half-Moon Secret Realm?”

Seeing Cang Qiansxue’s confusion, Mu Yunqing explained, “The Half-Moon Secret Realm is a secret realm that suddenly appeared a month ago, cultivators with a cultivation level from Golden Core to Yuan Ying can go in to train, there are no large beasts inside. At that time, my junior sister was exorcising demons in a village near the Half-Moon Secret Realm, she knew about this secret realm and sent a message to Master, saying she wanted to go in and take a look, Master also agreed to let her go.”

Cang Qiansxue pondered.

Seeing that he seemed to have become distrustful of Su Jiu, Mu Yunqing felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.

“Uncle Master, this time, my junior sister is also a victim,” Mu Yunqing said, “That poison must not have been administered by her.”

Cang Qiansxue’s eyes moved slightly, he looked at Mu Yunqing, seeing him subconsciously protecting Su Jiu, he couldn’t help but laugh, his tone was unclear whether it was sarcasm or praise.

“Your senior and junior sister, your relationship is quite good.”
