90: Chapter 90 can only be done by the master.
Suddenly remembering something, Su Xuan leaned forward and asked curiously, "By the way! How did you and my Master meet?"
"Sister Lin?" A flash of recollection passed through Dongfang Bai's beautiful eyes, and the corner of her mouth lifted slightly. Instead of answering, she asked Su Xuan in return, "Didn't Sister Lin tell you?"
Su Xuan shook his head.
Seeing Su Xuan shake his head, Dongfang Bai wasn't disappointed. A trace of beautiful scenes seemed to flicker in her lovely phoenix eyes. "Hmm... how should I put it?"
Dongfang Bai tapped her fair chin. "Back when I was cultivating the Sunflower Manual, something went wrong. I nearly died because of it. It was Sister Lin who saved me."
"For a period after that, I stayed by Sister Lin's side. We were kindred spirits, so naturally we became good sisters..."
As she spoke, Dongfang Bai sized up Su Xuan, a rare flicker of 'jealousy' crossing her pretty face. "But what's so great about you, that you make Sister Lin mention you so often..."
"Isn't it obvious? If a Master doesn't think of her own disciple, who else would she think of?" Su Xuan laughed.
As he spoke, Su Xuan suddenly remembered something. He put away his playful mood and said seriously,
"The issue with your Cultivation Technique must be resolved as soon as possible. That accumulation of pure Yang Qi has been stagnant for a long time, and it's still slowly increasing. If it's not dealt with quickly, there could be serious trouble."
"Tomorrow, I will pass the treatment method to Master. She will assist you in guiding it."
Hearing this, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but think of that embarrassing treatment process. A faint blush rose to her cheeks as she pretended to be calm and nodded. "Understood."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Dongfang Bai suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, and her expression changed drastically. "How could this be?"
Su Xuan had just been about to take a sip of wine to moisten his throat. Seeing this, he quickly stood up, came to Dongfang Bai's side, and grasped her fair wrist to investigate.
The more he investigated, the more alarmed Su Xuan became.
How is this possible? Everything was fine just moments ago!
Why did that pure Yang Qi suddenly become so much more abundant?!
Before Su Xuan could recover his wits, Dongfang Bai suddenly struck at him with a palm.
*Thud*
Su Xuan instinctively raised his hand to block the attack. Looking at Dongfang Bai's crimson eyes, his heart skipped a beat.
Not good! Qi Deviation!
Su Xuan's eyes flickered. A ruthless determination settled in his heart. There's no other way.
Having made up his mind, Su Xuan's starry eyes focused. He dodged Dongfang Bai's second move.
Immediately after, his figure instantly appeared behind Dongfang Bai, and he sealed her acupoints.
Then, without hesitation, he scooped her up by the waist and ducked into a nearby room.
Placing Dongfang Bai against the headboard, Su Xuan sat cross-legged opposite her.
Looking at Dongfang Bai, whose face was alternating between red and purple, Su Xuan thought to himself, "There's definitely no time to go find Master now. Sorry, my apologies..."
As the words fell, Su Xuan directly untied the elegant sash at Dongfang Bai's waist...
Ten thousand words are omitted here...
...
It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Su Xuan was finally kicked out of the room.
Su Xuan steadied himself and turned around, complaining, "Hey! I was saving you! How can you kick me out..."
"Get lost!!"
Before Su Xuan could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a curse tinged with a sob.
Su Xuan's mouth twitched slightly. "Nasty woman! So fierce!"
Having said that, Su Xuan didn't linger. He walked off in another direction.
Inside the room, Dongfang Bai clutched the blanket tightly, covering the alluring sight.
Her pretty face was flushed with embarrassment, her beautiful eyes filled with shame, indignation, and complexity.
Why did it have to flare up at this particular time?! It was perfectly fine at the beginning!
This... this was the body she had preserved for decades, and now it had been seen by a little brat, and even...
Ugh~ This is really annoying...
And that little brat is Sister Lin's disciple...
They had only met for less than a day. How could something so absurd happen?!
If she had known, she wouldn't have had drinks with Little Su...
How could she face Sister Lin now...
At least *that* didn't happen...
Thinking of what followed, Dongfang Bai simply buried her head in the blanket.
Elsewhere, Su Xuan wandered around for a while before finally finding Little Dragon Girl's room.
Entering the room, Su Xuan realized Little Dragon Girl hadn't slept half the night, waiting there for him.
Seeing Su Xuan return, Little Dragon Girl immediately threw herself at him, complaining softly, "Junior Martial Uncle, why did you come back so late~"
With the Jade Maiden in his arms, how could Su Xuan hold back? He directly scooped Little Dragon Girl up by the waist.
"Ju... Junior Martial Uncle, it's almost dawn..."
"It's fine. We'll sleep in tomorrow. Hurry up, I'm very... today."
...
The next afternoon, Lin Chaoying and the others sat together for breakfast.
Looking at the empty seat beside her, Lin Chaoying had no appetite.
Five people sat around the table, yet not one of them touched their chopsticks.
Their gazes were all fixed in the direction of the room's entrance, as if waiting for someone.
For a moment, silence fell over the room.
Dongfang Bai picked up a soup dumpling and placed it in Lin Chaoying's bowl, urging, "Sister Lin, why don't we eat first? Lit... Little Su and Long'er are probably a bit tired and need to sleep a bit more. I'll have someone make a fresh batch later."
Lin Chaoying shook her head, her gaze still fixed on the doorway. "You eat first, Little Bai. Your sister will wait a little longer for Xuaner..."
"This..." Dongfang Bai glanced at the other girls and sighed. "Alright."
Is that guy really that important in Sister Lin's and their hearts?
Thinking of this, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but recall last night's treatment, a flicker of shame passing through her beautiful eyes.
Better to finish eating quickly and find an excuse to leave.
Otherwise, if she runs into that guy, it'll be mortifying...
Sigh~ It's just a pity I can't stay with Sister Lin...
Dongfang Bai picked up her bowl and began eating the porridge inside.
At that moment, Lin Chaoying's beautiful eyes suddenly moved. She turned her head and asked with concern, "By the way, Little Bai, did Xuaner resolve the issue with your Cultivation Technique?"
Hearing this, Dongfang Bai almost spat out the porridge she had just sipped. She coughed lightly twice. "Cough, cough... res... resolved..."
"The problem is resolved, but she still needs another round of treatment!" Before Dongfang Bai's words had fully faded, Su Xuan's voice suddenly rang out.
The girls looked over at the sound, their expressions lighting up with joy. They saw Su Xuan and Little Dragon Girl, hand in hand, had somehow appeared at the room's entrance.
Meeting Dongfang Bai's gaze, Su Xuan blinked and smiled. "Right? Sister Xiao Bai~"
"Ye... yes." Dongfang Bai avoided Su Xuan's gaze, forcing herself to appear calm.
"Treatment?" Lin Chaoying was somewhat puzzled.
"Yes!" Su Xuan led Little Dragon Girl to the dining table, picked up a small steamed bun, and fed it into Little Dragon Girl's mouth. Then he explained, "But the treatment process is a bit complicated. Since your disciple and Sister Xiao Bai are of opposite sexes and propriety dictates distance, only Master can do it..."
