Chapter 18: Midnight Sermon
The candle was half burnt.
The steaming green tea was also drunk dry.
Seeing the moon outside the window rise over the treetops, Bai Lian stood up.
After all, the two Martial Sisters had not broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage. They couldn't be as energetic as she was.
If you have no spirit energy, you will naturally need a good rest!
"I'll tidy up your room, third Martial Sister. You can stay with me tonight."
Su Youwei was still wondering what Bai Lian was going to do, and Xiao Jinse was the first to speak.
"No!"
Her voice was cold, but didn't sound angry.
No?
Xiao Jinse, "(｡• ˇ‸ˇ•｡)"
She is going to be angry.
At this time, Bai Lian saw three task options in front of her.
[Task 1, "Third Martial Sister, why don't you stay in the second Martial Sister's room tonight?" (Reward: a medium-grade magic tool - Flying Guillotine)]
[Task 2: Give a perfunctory response (Reward: Falling Star Soil)]
[Task 3: Explain your true thoughts in great detail (Reward: Hard Skill +1)]
"……”
From the perspective of tasks, Bai Lian thought that the second Martial Sister had a lot of opinions about the third Martial Sister.
But didn't they look quite harmonious just now?
Um.
I must not allow this small conflict to expand into a big one!
Bai Lian decided to use the sense of honor to influence the two younger Martial Sisters. With a common goal, they could work together. In the long run, even if their personalities were different, they could get along!
'The books I read are still useful!'
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian praised her wit.
She first explained, "It's because our Qiongming Peak is too small, and there were only three people before, so Master An Lan hasn't expanded this yard. Let's make do with this tonight. The third Martial Sister stays in my room, and I will go to stay in the Master's room for a night."
[Task completed. Hard Skill +1]
Then let the third Martial Sister live in the master's room!
Xiao Jinse's lips wriggled, and in the end she couldn't say it.
She also planned to let the third Martial Sister live in her own room, while she went to live in Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's room, but it would be too strange to say that.
Damn!
Anyway, I won't let the third Martial Sister take advantage of Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!
Xiao Jinse gritted her teeth and said, "Elder Martial Sister, why don't you let the third Martial Sister stay with me tonight? This way, you don't need to move out."
She didn't forget to add, "It's not good to stay in the Master's room without her permission."
Su Youwei found that she couldn't find any word to refute Xiao Jinse.
Great, Xiao Jinse. You even use the Master as an excuse.
Martial Sister Bai Lian looks like a person who respects the master and values morality. If possible, she will definitely not offend her master.
As she thought, Martial Sister Bai Lian nodded after hesitating for a moment, "That's it, third Martial Sister, do you agree?"
Su Youwei nodded gloomily.
"No problem."
Damn!
This annoying second Martial Sister is really difficult to deal with.
Bai Lian's idea was very simple.
She was still worried about how to make the two younger Martial Sisters get close, and Xiao Jinse's proposal was just to her mind.
It's wonderful to sleep together! They will definitely become good friends!
Bai Lian said sternly, "Second younger Martial Sister, take the third younger Martial Sister on a walk around tomorrow morning to familiarize her with the surrounding environment."
No.
Before Xiao Jinse could refuse, Bai Lian stopped her.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian paced to the window.
That cold face suddenly became sentimental.
"Alas "
This sigh went straight to Xiao Jinse's heart.
Was Martial Sister Bai Lian expressing dissatisfaction with her?
She…
Xiao Jinse bit her teeth.
Bai Lian continued, "In fact, I'm very happy tonight."
At this time, even the jade rabbit also stopped eating grass and looked at Bai Lian with puzzled eyes.
"Before you two arrived, Qiongming Peak was just me and Master. Although Qiongming Peak is now one of the five main peaks of the Duxian sect, its scenery is far less than that of the other main peaks. Once our Master leaves the first seat, how can I hold up Qiongming Peak's glorious past?"
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian…"
Xiao Jinse looked at Bai Lian's back and saw her desolation.
No. You won't.
With Martial Sister Bai Lian's qualifications, even if she is alone, she can make Qiongming Peak reach a higher level!
Su Youwei was also silent.
The more she saw it, the more she felt that Bai Lian was not as insane as it was rumored.
Was it just a rumor, or were there some changes?
"Not long ago, the second younger Martial Sister joined Qiongming Peak, followed by the jade rabbit, and then the third younger Martial Sister. All of you have great talents, and you will definitely surpass me in your future achievements. You are Qiongming Peak's hope of restoring its former glory. How can I not be happy?"
Xiao Jinse and Su Youwei were both infected by this strange atmosphere.
Xiao Jinse, "Martial Sister Bai Lian, you are Qiongming Peak's hope!"
Su Youwei, "Indeed."
The jade rabbit was so moved that it even stopped eating the grass.
It didn't expect that it had the same status as a Martial Sister in Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's eyes. No wonder Elder Martial Sister Bai didn't take it as a mount, and even let it ride the flying sword.
"Haw haw haw (overthrow Yunluo Peak and make Qiongming Peak the first peak of the Duxian sect!)"
Bai Lian turned slowly.
The sadness on her face had been replaced by a shallow smile, "Just now I was a little out of sorts. If you're tired, have a rest earlier. Jade rabbit, if you don't mind, you can have a rest in my room."
The jade rabbit quickly shook its head.
Of course it wouldn't mind.
Xiao Jinse glanced at the jade rabbit.
It's just a rabbit. There is nothing I need to worry about!
Inspired by Bai Lian's words, she even felt that she should temporarily put aside the idea of driving the third Martial Sister out of Qiongming Peak.
Since she could be liked by the Master, it showed that she was still qualified. It seemed to be a very good idea to let her become a tool for Qiongming Peak's rise.
Late at night.
Xiao Jinse lay down in her clothes.
The candle was out.
She pricked up her ears and listened hard.
Unfortunately, Martial Sister Bai Lian set up a barrier again. Even though she was only separated by a stone wall, she still couldn't hear anything from the next door.
At this time, Martial Sister Bai Lian should be in cultivation.
In order to instruct her, Martial Sister Bai Lian delayed a lot of cultivation time before. She must be taking this opportunity to make up for it.
Gradually, another slightly rapid breathing sound attracted Xiao Jinse's attention.
She turned sideways, and the third Martial Sister lying on the same side fell into her eyes.
The difference was that she was lying on the bed and the third Martial Sister was lying on the ground.
She invited the third Martial Sister, but Su Youwei insisted on sleeping on the floor.
Xiao Jinse was puzzled that even when she lay down, the third Martial Sister still held the lock-shaped accessory she wore on her chest tightly.
She decided to find some words to shorten the distance between her and the third Martial Sister.
Xiao Jinse coughed softly, "Did your family give you that lock?"
"……”
Not going to answer me?
After what felt like half a day, Su Youwei replied coolly, "No."
"Then…"
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian gave it to me."
Huh?
Xiao Jinse's body stiffened, like being struck by lightning.
Wait!
Something's wrong.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian doesn't seem to have given anything to me…
Xiao Jinse had a flash of light in her mind.
"My sword, Blowing Snow Sword, was also given to me by Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
Su Youwei, "……"
Isn't this too childish?
Although she sneered in her heart, she slowly stretched out her right hand from the quilt, "This storage ring on my hand is also from Martial Sister Bai Lian."
Xiao Jinse took out her jade slip, "This is also what Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian gave me when she left!"
Su Youwei was extremely calm, "My previous clothes were damaged, and Martial Sister Bai Lian gave me a new set of clothes."
Xiao Jinse tightened her fist and restrained the impulse to punch Su Youwei.
You think this will hit me?
"My Spiritual Root was repaired by Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"My cultivation base is enlightened by Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"My cultivation base was also improved by Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"I…"
"I…"
After a long while, Xiao Jinse and Su Youwei couldn't find anything to say at the same time.
The girl's body shivered slightly under the quilt.
How does it sound like two wastes talking about Tao? Instead of being ashamed, they were proud?
No way.
Xiao Jinse decided to put aside all the absurd ideas that came into her mind not long ago.
What tool? Qiongming Peak doesn't need a tool! I and Martial Sister Bai Lian are enough to restore Qiongming Peak's glory!
Su Youwei also frowned.
When I break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, I will try to kick you out of Qiongming Peak immediately!
