71: Chapter 70 Xiao Jiu Has Trouble Sleeping, Huaiyu Visits at Night
71 -70 Xiao Jiu Has Trouble Sleeping, Huaiyu Visits at Night
Little Jiu was always a very well-behaved child.
Every day, she not only had to learn literature and practice calligraphy,
but she also had to practice women’s handicrafts, pile stance, and sword technique, and even learn to stew various kinds of soups and broths.
Her tender shoulders at the age of eight bore burdens they should not have at such an age.
She didn’t have any other hobbies; she just liked to eat some sweets, pastries, and listen to those interesting stories.
She rarely made things difficult for others.
But today, she was being stubborn.
It was already the You Hour, and she was still guarding by the eastern side of the herbal garden, staring at the courtyard where not a single light shone through, lost in a daze.
“Ninth Miss, please rest early.
We have to get up early tomorrow.”
“Sister Xue, just wait a little longer.
I’ll go to sleep after waiting a little bit.
Brother Ping’an hasn’t eaten for as long as a whole day.
He must be starving.”
The little one was downcast as she carried a small basket, which contained her favorite honey cakes, thinking to herself, “I wonder how long it will be before Little Monkey comes out of Mount Wuxing.
Will he cause havoc in the Heavenly Palace again?”
He has slept for a whole day and is still sleeping.
Thinking about the continuous night battles of last night.
Brother Ping’an must be exhausted,
and the little one felt embarrassed to knock on the door and disturb him.
“Let’s go back.”
After waiting a little longer and seeing that the lights in the room remained off, Little Jiu decided not to wait any longer.
It wouldn’t be good if her sister came looking for her.
…
With a “creak,” the wooden door behind her suddenly opened.
Little Jiu turned her head and saw, under the light of the lantern carried by the evening breeze, the doorway had already swung open, and a figure in black with short hair, beaming with a smile, walked out.
“Hey, how can you sleep so much?
It’s been a whole day.”
The little girl spread her legs and ran over to him.
She almost upset the tiny bamboo basket in her hands.
Zhou Ping’an quickly half-squatted down to lift her up, taking the basket of cakes from Little Jiu’er’s hands.
Listening to her “giggling” laughter, which sounded like silver bells, and smelling the sweet fragrance emanating from the basket, he felt a little touched.
Although, deep down, he knew that the little one actually wanted to hear the next part of the story, she still remembered that he had been hungry all day and had waited over here for a long time.
It was quite rare.
Was his cotton-padded jacket this thoughtful?
Having come through to this world once again, he hadn’t yet had the chance to savor the loneliness of being “a stranger in a strange land.”
Warmth instantly filled the depths of Zhou Ping’an’s soul.
Children are like that, without any personal desires or stray thoughts.
She remembers all those who are good to her.
“Now you can rest assured, your Brother Ping’an is fine.
If you want to hear a story, let him tell you one tomorrow.”
The wind blew by, and the light in the courtyard suddenly dimmed.
A voice as crisp and tender as a snack soft and mellow, carried softly, and for some reason, Zhou Ping’an could hear a hint of sourness in it.
Ah…
Sorry about that.
Your little sister is about to become my little sister.
Zhou Ping’an felt slightly amused inside, and when he looked up, he saw The Third Miss Lin standing elegantly in the wind.
Her blue robe fluttered in the breeze, her hair lightly lifted.
Perhaps the moonlight tonight was enchanting.
Seeing The Third Miss this time, he did not feel the serious conflict of fierceness and coolness mixed together like the previous occasions.
She just seemed like a clear pool of water…
Warm and gentle.
It sparked a sense of closeness from the bottom of one’s heart, eliminating all defenses and rejections.
“This…”
Looking at the woman’s delicate and beautiful face, coated with a layer of soft light, Zhou Ping’an felt that there indeed were no mistaken nicknames, just mistaken names.
The Jianghu moniker “Fairy Huaiyu” was truly a name well-deserved.
“Why do you stare at me like that?
Do I look so different?” Lin Huaiyu asked, tenderly tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear, with a hint of embarrassment, “Speaking of changes, I have you to thank for your good fortune.
I successfully concocted the elixir, finally purged the miscellaneous qi from my blood essence, and stepped into the Five Viscera Realm.”
Even though she hadn’t demonstrated any advanced sword techniques, Zhou Ping’an knew she had grown stronger.
Her demeanor was serene, her confidence strong—so solid that she hardly cared about the tempests of the outside world.
She was clearly at a distance just moments ago.
Yet, she had arrived in this courtyard silently and unnoticed.
He hadn’t sensed her presence at all.
From this fact alone, it was evident that her strength had greatly increased.
Keep in mind, even Baicao Hall’s Hall Master, the “Divine Healer Celestial Child,” who had mastered the superior Qinggong of Ghostly Shadows Step, Zhou Ping’an believed he would detect the other if within thirty feet, thanks to his sharp senses.
The “Karmic Fire Red Lotus Visualization Method” did not directly boost his power on the surface.
But it brought many benefits, whether it was enhancing the five senses or aiding in cultivation.
“Elixir?”
Zhou Ping’an suddenly realized.
Ten days had passed in the modern world, and here too, ten hours had transpired.
For what seemed like many days to him, here it was just one day.
That is to say, Lin Huaiyu had concocted the “Yin Yang Harmonization Pill” from the Hehuan Sect within a single day.
She could actually.
Also perform alchemy.
It seems that the tradition of ‘chicken parenting’ exists not only in modern society but also in the society of ancient times.
Being multi-talented—could it be the standard among these great family descendants?
How could an ordinary citizen compete?
After Lin Huaiyu spoke, she slightly furrowed her brow, “Little Jiu’er, not listening, huh?
Go to sleep quickly, tomorrow morning, I’ll practice the sword with you again.” fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Humph, you adults are so bothersome, always trying to send me away when there’s something up.
But I am not a little kid anymore.”
Little Jiu’er pouted, discontent as she took Xiao Xue and left.
She knew well enough.
Before her sister spoke, everything was fine.
But once her sister put on a stern face, it was best not to go against her; otherwise, countless troublesome little tricks would surface and drive her to the brink of annoyance.
“Join me for a drink…”
Lin Huaiyu watched Little Jiu’er obediently leave, her face briefly softening with a smile before quickly returning to seriousness.
She extended her hand, miraculously producing a white porcelain wine jug from nowhere, and settled down beside a stone table in the courtyard, pouring two cups of wine.
The wine was amber in color, exuding an enticing aroma.
Just by smelling it,
Saliva wildly secreted in Zhou Ping’an’s mouth.
He felt mildly puzzled but followed Lin Huaiyu’s lead, covering his face with a sleeve, lifting the cup, and downing the drink in one gulp.
Boom…
As soon as the alcohol hit his stomach, a powerful and magnanimous warmth exploded, surging through his limbs and sinking deep into his marrow.
It felt like countless tender, tiny hands were gently kneading his muscles and bones.
The state of depletion and foundational damage caused by forcibly using “Tiger-Leopard Thunder Sound” to rattle his marrow and cleanse it had instantly improved significantly.
His complexion, pale as paper just a few breaths before, had regained its ruddy health.
“This wine?”
“Correct, it contains the Yin Yang Harmonization Pill…
The main ingredients of this elixir are Sunflame Flower and Yin Spirit Herb, both rare and precious.
Fortunately, the teams who went into the mountains recently had good luck and found two plants.”
