30 - It Was The Stick!
"Old fogey, you lousy thick-skulled sorry excuse of a cultivator!" Yin hissed through gritted teeth as she ran up towards what she remembered to be the direction of the old fogey's residence. "Starting from now, I'll officially call you dumb fogey!"
Starting from the lakeside pavilions, the stone paths that snaked and branched outwards towards other courtyards and manors were lined with flower-bearing trees and berry bushes. With the subtle fragrance in the air, together with the soft lights from the hanging lanterns, it made the place look soothing and sophisticated.
But she was not being soothed!
Yin was still oozing with annoyance!
Nobody was around, but she was in too bad a mood to actually freakin' care wh
31 - Am I Someone You Can Irritate?!Yin was very, very unhappy.She wanted to fight, ah! She wanted to smash and beat up those annoying people!Especially that white-clothed man who threatened to cut off her limb. Li Xiao Yang? More like Li Xiao Hou(1)!Such a despicable monkey bullying a little girl in order to ingratiate himself to these colorful fancy-robed parrots, if she were a normal little girl, would she not have burst into tears in fright?If this little monkey did not deserve to be beaten up black and blue, then who deserved a beating?!However, with Ye Mo's appearance, she simply could no longer make a move. After all, now, the entire sect knew that she has Ye Mo as a backer.
32 - This Feels Much Better!'A fine lady is supposed to behave.''A fine lady is supposed to be virtuous.''A fine lady is supposed to… dammit, I am fine but not a lady, ah!'Even back in the Land of Celestial Deities, Yin was not best known for her pranks. No, she was infamous for her irritable personality and short temper, the nightmare of every mortal and immortal who happened to cross her path. She wasn't stingy when it came to giving face smacks, and her filter-free mouth could cause even the Thousand-armed Buddha to lose his temper.One would have thought that as a daughter of Primordial Chaos, who was praised to be more beautiful than the moon, she would be a woman as gentle as water and as pure as ice.
33 - Leave My Hair Alone!"If Fairy Yin wishes, we can have tea while we talk outside. Say, that orchid pavilion by the lake looks perfect for a small intimate gathering."The frail boy in golden robes slowly stepped forward with his hands on his back, a dimpled smile hanging on his pale lips, simply nothing short of a young master preparing to take a leisurely stroll."Shall I have my servants prepare us several dishes for a banquet? Nothing too formal, just a meal between new friends."What an actor!Yin merely blinked at his words.She did not expect that a mere mortal boy around six- or seven-years-old could manage to speak with such calm and steadiness despite her intimidating
"Eat a little slower, eat a little slower, Little Yin.""Aiya! That is mine, you old fogey!""This is meat. Put more vegetables on your plate.""Uncle, your plate also has no vegetables."Fresh and tender meat from spiritual beasts, a rare catch of seafood from another city, different heavenly plants, ancient mushrooms, spicy herbs, vegetables, seeds and roots... it was a feast!As expected, Ye Mo and Little Yin started quarreling after annihilating the first round of food. Wu Xuan'er had to placate both sides before the table flipped over. Good thing she and the cook had prepared more than usual today, or else she and her husband would not be able to get a bite, much less eat dinner.
35 - Do You Think…Inside the largest and most luxurious courtyard within the territory of the Ye Sect, where the spiritual qi was so thick it was nearly in a constant misty state, a frail boy in golden robes sat cross-legged beside a cold-looking beauty of no more than sixteen years old.The cold-looking beauty wore a white robe covered by a gray patterned armor woven from soft volcanic silk and royal-grade vermillion feathers. On her chest and the sleeves, plum blossoms were intricately hand stitched. There lay a gray helmet with a purple plume on the wooden floor beside her cushion.The frail boy and the cold beauty were quietly sipping tea inside a room that allows viewing of the cherry blossom trees in the garden. However, right now it was winter. Although there was no snow accumulated outside because of the spe
36 - I Want A Cute Tiny DumplingInside the Tenth Elder's residence."Hey, stop drinking wine.""Hey!""Old fogey!""Dumb fogey!""Dumb dumb old fogey!"No matter what Yin tried and how much she nagged, Ye Mo refused to speak and simply let Ye Hua and Wu Xuan'er play hosts to Zhi Ruo. Of course, Yin was having none of it. She was officially in a matchmaking mode right now.No matter the circumstances, under her supervision as the Founder and First Sect Master of the Church of Love, love must prevail!So what if Ye Mo is a dumb fogey who has not a
37 - Yay! Little Yin Got Another Playmate"Can you tell me about the power structure of this place? If I'm going to scam someone, who should I prioritize?"Ye Hua was dumbfounded. Even Wu Xuan'er was dumbfounded.The young sword cultivator was the first to recover. "You wanna do what?"His wife shook her head with an awkward laugh. "Eh, maybe we misheard...""Hmm? Scamming is scamming. What's wrong?" Yin's large and bright eyes curiously studied their expressions. "Why are you two looking at me like that?"She was puzzled by their reactions. Did they misunderstand her intention?"It's not like I'm going to rob someone," she explained with as m
38 - Eh? Eh?"Aiya, don't play deaf. Why don't you tell me why you have come? That way, we can wrap this up quickly and go to bed early. I'm a growing lady—you can't be so callous as to deprive me of my beauty sleep, right?"The lilting voice was full of mischief; neither loud nor soft, neither fast nor slow, a sound so innocent and harmless that it could cause the listener to feel good…… and yet the childish laugh that accompanied those casual words caused the person with the alias Yi to be covered in cold sweat."Why don't you remove your mask? Or do you want me to do it?"In a blink of an eye, Number One was several mu away, both legs bent like a tightly coiled spring. He held a small sword with an icy blade i
