Chapter 15: Ch 15 - It Will Be Something You Like
"As expected of the Senior Sister, not even putting the Sect Leader in your eyes."
Yino sat in the carriage, looking at the cold face of the white-robed woman opposite him, feeling the pressure on his shoulders increase sharply again.
He felt that Yuyan's usually cold and elegant immortal image was fake, and that the frivolous and rebellious expression she just showed was her true nature. No wonder she would become so crazy after turning evil in the later stages of the original story.
-Besides Yuyan, Aunty's reaction today was also very strange-
-First, she gave me a strange paper kite-
-If it weren't for the memories from my previous life, I would probably think she was just coaxing me-
-But after all, this is the world of Fallen Immortal, and every seemingly insignificant clue could be foreshadowing-
Moreover, Yino had long known about Xinyao's hidden identity as a Western Region demon messenger, and the Western Province City she mentioned happened to be on the border between the Great Dragon Dynasty and the Western Region, which inevitably had some connection.
If Xinyao said she had a friend, it was probably true, and it might also be some demon NPC from the original Fallen Immortal story!
In addition to this, Xinyao gave Yino another gift.
To be honest, Yino wasn't sure if she had stolen a kiss from him.
Before leaving, she asked Yino to close his eyes and open his mouth, then somehow stuffed a pill into Yino's mouth...
Yino could feel some warm and moist contact, but he didn't dare to open his eyes to peek. He didn't know how Xinyao had delivered the pill to his mouth, he could only imagine.
After taking the pill, Yino felt his body become somewhat hot, as if a hidden power was awakening in his dantian and spreading throughout his body.
This was also why Yino had been blushing all this time.
Yino estimated that the pill his aunt had fed him was probably some kind of pill that could activate demon bloodline, with the purpose of ensuring that Yino could achieve something in the immortal sect and not be bullied.
But these were all assumptions.
Yino was still in Yuyan's carriage now, with no chance to test the value of this pill. When he got to Wuji Sect and settled down, Yino would examine his meridians.
Looking back and summarizing now, it seemed that both Yuyan and Xinyao had hidden stories, while Jinyue was the one who most conformed to her original character setting - just like in the original story, she was a bad fox in need of discipline.
Yino hadn't forgotten the mortal grudge of being put under an illusion by Jiang Jinyue last night.
He had remembered this grudge.
Once they reached Wuji Sect, after dealing with the protagonist to remove this worry, Yino could tell Yuyan and the elders about Jinyue's infiltration of Wuji Sect as an undercover agent.
At that time, with a net cast over Wuji Sect, Yino was really looking forward to seeing Jinyue's confused expression when she was caught!
"Has your inner world always been so rich?"
Yuyan suddenly spoke, interrupting Yino's revenge fantasy.
At the same time, Yino took a sharp breath and looked up at Yuyan: "You don't really know mind-reading techniques, do you?"
"How could that be possible, I'm not a fox demon."
Yuyan waved her hand, turning her face to look out the carriage window, "I just saw you being so quiet all the way, but your gaze was unusually focused on my feet... so I deduced that you weren't spacing out, but thinking about something."
"Wait, everything you said before was correct, but I was just looking down at the floor, how could I have been staring at your feet?"
Yino said nervously, also withdrawing his gaze from the exquisite silver high heels under Yuyan's skirt.
Yuyan didn't refute, just crossed her legs, propped her face with one hand, and quietly looked at him: "Is that so? I was worried that besides peeping at baths and being obsessed with dancing, you had developed some new hobby."
"Senior Sister, you really know how to joke." A small bead of sweat imperceptibly slid down his cheek.
Yuyan smiled faintly: "Don't be nervous. Although you're a bit lecherous, your gaze doesn't make me feel disgusted. That's also why I'm willing to bring you up the mountain."
"Because I didn't have any lustful thoughts in the first place! I was really just contemplating life. You're sitting right across from me, so naturally some part of your body would appear in my line of sight, right?"
Yino really found it hard to explain.
Yuyan always tormented Yino at a subtle edge.
If Yino really hadn't looked, then he would have been innocent, but the key was that every time she stared at Yino with suspicious eyes, it really made Yino feel a bit guilty.
-What can I do? Who made her so beautiful?-
And... What really made Yino particularly concerned was that Yuyan really wore a pair of silver high heels under her pure white dress, just like in the game illustrations. They looked good, but was this really convenient for a sword cultivator?
"Alright, stop staring."
Yuyan sighed, turning to look out the window, "Let's look at the distant scenery instead. After all, we've already arrived at Wuji Peak."
She introduced calmly. Although she had been bickering with Yino all the way, Yuyan's emotions had always been stable. She hadn't really gotten angry, just simply found it amusing to tease Yino when he looked guilty.
Yino also looked out the window, seeing a winding range of peaks in the sea of clouds.
And at the foot of Wuji Peak stood a huge temple gate.
Outside the gate, dense crowds of people were queuing orderly on the steps.
Fortunately, Yuyan's carriage could fly, so they didn't need to queue and could look down on the spectacular scene in front of Wuji Sect from above.
"Are they taking the sect entrance exam?"
"They are mortal disciples coming to register. The entrance exam is in three days."
Yuyan explained calmly.
As the immortal sect's carriage flew over the heads of the crowd, countless mortal disciples became agitated, looking up at Yuyan and Yino with envious gazes.
Although Yino couldn't hear what the crowd was saying, with his experience of playing the protagonist in the game in his previous life, he could probably guess that people were now discussing the rumors about the Senior Sister and the Seventh Prince of the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
If Yino wasn't mistaken, the protagonist Chen Jianxin was hidden in this dense crowd right now, silently listening to the rumors about the Senior Sister, and casting a strange look at the Seventh Prince of the Grand Tutor's Mansion in the carriage.
-Tsk tsk...-
-It's a pity I wasn't reborn as the protagonist. I know the upcoming plot of showing off, face-slapping, and treasure hunting in secret realms like the back of my hand-
As an experienced pro player from his previous life, Yino could now only lean on the window, with the will but not the power.
Yuyan saw the unusual look in Yino's eyes and couldn't help but explain:
"Don't worry, you've already been accepted as the Sect Leader's disciple and are also my junior brother. You don't need to take the sect entrance exam."
"Yeah, it's good to have privileges."
Yino said, but he couldn't feel happy at all.
Now was not the time to pop the champagne early. He was still figuring out how to kill Chen Jianxin next, after all, coming to Wuji Sect meant it was really time for bloodshed.
Yuyan looked him over but didn't say more.
In a moment, their carriage had stopped at the foot of Ranmo Peak.
"We're here."
"This mountain is Ranmo Peak, my main peak, and also where you'll be staying temporarily."
Yuyan got off the carriage, waving her hand to signal the two immortal cranes to leave on their own.
Although it was called a carriage, there were actually no horses. It was two immortal cranes pulling the carriage compartment through the air.
"Why didn't we stop at the peak?"
Yino followed behind Yuyan, looking at the towering high peak with a bewildered gaze.
The white-robed woman raised her hand to summon her sword, too lazy to explain, but instead turned back to give him a meaningful look: "Can you fly on a sword?"
"No."
"Then you walk up, I'll wait for you at the top of the mountain."
"Wait, this Ranmo Peak is 2,700 meters high, how long will it take me to climb up?" Yino looked at Yuyan in disbelief.
But Yuyan was surprisingly surprised, blinking: "You actually know the height of my main peak, it seems you're not so ignorant after all."
"Wait, is that the point?"
"A real man who can't even conquer a small mountain peak, yet dares to dream of making this immortal willingly dance for you?"
The white-robed woman's cold eyes were frivolous, her lips curved upward. Although her gaze towards Yino had less disdain, it had more playfulness.
With her smile, Yino immediately felt a challenge to his dignity.
He should have guessed that Yuyan wouldn't be so gentle with him. After all, in the original story, even the protagonist with innate sword dao holy body wasn't spared from her drill sergeant treatment.
But unlike the original story, the original Senior Sister had a serious expression, while the current Yuyan was smiling coldly and playfully.
-What a wicked sense of humor...-
-She really isn't a good woman!-
"If you're afraid, you can choose to give up."
Yuyan sighed with feigned disappointment.
But as her words fell, her cold eyes narrowed into a slit, and she shrugged helplessly: "But a waste who can't even climb a mountain doesn't qualify to be my junior brother."
"If this immortal doesn't want you anymore, there will be no place for you in Wuji Sect."
"You can also choose to go back to the Grand Tutor's Mansion to complain about me, but the premise is... that you can walk back home on this 1000 miles round trip."
Upon hearing this, Yino's face immediately turned pale.
Wuji Sect was at least 1000 miles away from the Grand Tutor's Mansion. She had lured Yino to this remote wilderness, not even giving him a carriage. How could he possibly walk back home on foot at this point?
So from the very beginning, Yino had no choice!
Thinking of this, Yino couldn't help but click his tongue, and what little goodwill he had left for her in his heart once again vanished into thin air.
"Alright, alright, then you wait for me at the top of the mountain."
He sighed, pretending to give in.
Yino planned to wait until Yuyan had gone far away, then use his Foundation Establishment realm cultivation to climb straight up to the top of the mountain with his lightness skill.
Otherwise, if he really climbed the stairs, Yino was afraid he might really die of exhaustion.
"If you can reach the top before sunset, I'll give you some rewards."
"What rewards?"
"Heh, it will be something you like."
Before leaving, the white-robed woman turned back with a mysterious smile.
