Volume 1 Chapter 12: Junior Sister, Feeling Jealous

Though the process was a bit rough, the outcome was good.

After Pei Lengxue repeatedly performed CPR and combined it with the Coagulation Pill Ye Anping made, Feng Yudie's condition stabilized.

However, it was only stable.

Ye Anping then checked her pulse carefully using his spiritual sense.

Her meridians were shattered, her spiritual energy was mixed, and her body was extremely weak.

Even with her extraordinary aptitude, without one or two months of recovery, these injuries wouldn't heal.

However, there were only two months left until the Sect Disciples Grand Assembly of the Profound Star Sect.

If things continued like this, Feng Yudie would undoubtedly miss the assembly. If she wanted to join the Profound Star Sect, she'd have to wait for another five years.

The best solution now was to take her back to the Hundred Lotus Sect. Let his father help treat her injuries before sending her to the Profound Star Sect. However, doing so would link the Hundred Lotus Sect with the protagonist who seemed to attract trouble wherever she went.

What a dilemma...

After pondering for a while, Ye Anping finally made up his mind to take Feng Yudie back to the Hundred Lotus Sect for treatment.

The future of this world had already changed.

The Hundred Lotus Sect hadn't been annihilated.

His junior sister hadn't been captured and turned into a sex slave by that Wu You.

The more changes he made, the more uncertain the future would become.

Just like how Feng Yudie, who should have been saved by an ordinary cultivator, had ended up being saved by him instead.

Furthermore, he now held the fifth volume of the "Mysterious Yin Art" that Wu You possessed.

If Feng Yudie misses the entrance to the Profound Star Sect again, the main plotline will be completely thrown into chaos.

"Junior Sister, carry her on your back. Let's return to the Hundred Lotus Sect and have my father treat her injuries."

"Huh?" Pei Lengxue looked surprised and glanced at Feng Yudie. She asked, "... Wouldn't it be enough to take her to the medical hall in the town?"

"If she stays in the medical hall, it'll take at least two months before she can move around. If we return to the sect, my father can use his true essence to heal her, and she'll recover in three days."

...

Hearing her Senior Brother say this, Pei Lengxue couldn't help feeling a bit uncomfortable. Why was Senior Brother treating this girl so well?

Saving her life was understandable; it was fine for fellow cultivators to help each other. But why was Senior Brother going so far as to ask the Sect Master to spend his true essence to heal her injuries?

She glanced at Feng Yudie's face and couldn't help but admit that this person was indeed very attractive.

Could it be that Senior Brother wanted to use saving her as an excuse to get close to her?

— Why is Senior Brother like this!! Clearly, he already has me as his Junior Sister, yet he's treating other girls like that...

In the bamboo forest, jealousy filled the air.

Ye Anping stepped onto his flying sword.

"What's wrong?"

"Stinky Senior Brother."

"?"

"Hmph!"

Pei Lengxue wrinkled her nose, then roughly hoisted Feng Yudie onto her shoulder like a sack of flour. She summoned her own flying sword and took off into the sky.

Ye Anping was stunned for a moment, let out a soft sigh, and then followed suit.

"Is Lengxue finally going through her rebellious phase?"

...

When Ye Anping and Pei Lengxue returned to the Heavenly Pavilion of the Hundred Lotus Sect, they were greeted by Ye Ao's face, which was covered in bulging veins.

"Hmm, had enough fun? Finally decided to come back?"

"Father..." Ye Anping smiled awkwardly, "We weren't out for fun. Didn't we leave you a note earlier?"

"Hmph. I saw it. You said you were taking Pei girl to kill the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect."

"And that's what we did."

A twitch appeared at the corner of Ye Ao's eye, and he couldn't help himself from slapping Ye Anping's head with his palm.

Ye Anping quickly leaned back and dodged the slap, then raised his hand to block.

"Father, your son barely survived, and you're giving me a slap instead of a hug?"

"Damn you..."

At that moment, Kong Yulan, who was inside the room, seemed to have heard the commotion and hurried out.

As soon as she saw Ye Anping, tears welled up in her eyes. She sprinted over, pushing Ye Ao aside with all her strength, and then pulled Ye Anping into her embrace.

"Ah~!! My Ping'er, are you okay?"

She quickly grabbed Ye Anping's collar and inspected him from head to toe.

"Your mother was so worried. I cried for days after hearing that you were going to find the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect. What if something happened to you? How will I live in the future~~~"

Ye Anping was pushed back several steps by Kong Yulan and replied helplessly, "Mother, I'm back now, right? And besides, the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect is already dead."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Impressive, my Ping'er is amazing!" Kong Yulan squinted and smiled, then rubbed Ye Anping's head, leaving a few lipstick marks on his face. "It's good that you're back."

On the side, Ye Ao rolled his eyes at the mother and son.

"Wonderful. So, Yulan, this rascal sneaked out to play. If he had really encountered the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect, would he still be able to return?"

"Why not?" Kong Yulan frowned and shot back, "My Ping'er is so amazing."

"Your Ping'er is only at the third level of Qi Refining."

"So what if he's at the third level of Qi Refining?"

"If a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining encounters a Peal Core Formation stage cultivator…"

Ye Ao took a deep breath and continued, "If this kid really managed to kill the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect, I'll immediately kowtow to him thirty times while standing on my head."

...

Kong Yulan glanced at him and ignored him directly. Then she turned to ask, "Ping'er, are you hungry? What would you like to eat? I'll cook something for you."

"Maybe later."

Ye Anping gently pushed away Kong Yulan, who was hugging him, and then raised an eyebrow at his father.

"Father, you are the one who said you would kowtow."

"Huh?" Ye Ao was taken aback, then nodded, "What's the matter? I did say it."

He smiled slightly, then raised his right hand, making a sword gesture and directly took out the various magical tools and identity cards from his storage pouch, placing them in front of Ye Ao.

...

Seeing the items Ye Anping took out, Ye Ao paused for a moment, then quickly went forward to inspect them one by one.

After confirming that these were indeed items that only a Peak Core Formation stage demonic cultivator would possess, along with the authenticity of the identity cards, his expression instantly became serious, and he furrowed his brows.

"Anping, where did you get these things?"

"I told you, we got it after killing the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect," Ye Anping shrugged his shoulders and explained, "Pei Lengxue and I killed him together. He was a cultivator in the Peak Core Formation stage, close to the Early Stage Nascent Soul realm. His Daoist name was 'Wu You,' and I don't know his real name."

"You and Pei girl?" Ye Ao looked at Pei Lengxue waiting outside and still found it a bit unbelievable. "You two Qi Refining stage cultivators managed to kill a Peak Core Formation stage cultivator?"

"This is a long story. I'll explain it to you later, before that..."

Ye Anping paused and then turned his head to signal Pei Lengxue, who was waiting outside, to bring in Feng Yudie.

Pei Lengxue understood the signal, but she did so reluctantly. She lifted Feng Yudie, who was leaning against the door, and roughly dumped her in front of Ye Ao.

Thud

Feng Yudie bounced a couple of times from the impact.

Ye Anping was taken aback for a moment, wondering why Pei Lengxue couldn't be a bit gentler. Nonetheless, he didn't pay much attention and quickly asked, "Father, can you use your true essence to help heal her?"

Ye Ao furrowed his brow slightly and used his spiritual sense to scan Feng Yudie.

When he discovered Feng Yudie's spiritual root aptitude, he was equally stunned.

"This girl has a Heavenly Spiritual Root?"

"Yes, her name is Feng Yudie," Ye Anping stepped forward and introduced her, "She was the disciple of the True Immortal Tai Xu. When True Immortal Tai Xu ascended to immortality last year, she gave this girl her recommendation letter and told her to join Profound Star Sect. However, she was severely injured on her way there by the Grand Elder of the Poison Gu Sect..."

Ye Anping paused, and Pei Lengxue's eyes widened in surprise.

—Why does Senior Brother know so much?

"Father, the Profound Star Sect disciple assembly is in two months. She won't be able to make it in her current state. Could you please use your true essence to help her recover?"

"True Immortal Tai Xu..."

Ye Ao was also puzzled by how Ye Anping knew this name, but he figured that this girl must have told him. After thinking for a moment, he still prepared to refuse.

If Feng Yudie were in critical condition, he might consider using true essence to help her. However, it seemed that her situation had stabilized for now.

True essence wasn't the same as spiritual energy; it couldn't be produced in large quantities each year.

He wasn't a philanthropist. How could he use true essence for a little cultivator he had no connection with?

"Anping, you should know that true essence is—"

"I'll do it!!" Kong Yulan interjected hurriedly from the side.

Ye Ao looked at her in confusion.

"Huh? Yulan?"

"No worries, it's just a bit of true essence. I'll help heal her."

Kong Yulan blinked at Ye Anping, as if she had misunderstood something, then immediately carried Feng Yudie into the inner room.​
