118: Chapter 118 More and more people are coming

Mo Zixing looked at the different expressions in the eyes of Jiang Yuwei and Su Li and smiled helplessly.

He reached out and pinched his Junior Sister's cheek.

"No, Yuwei, what kind of nonsense are you thinking about all day long?"

He gently pushed Sect Master Bai Ruotong in front of him, cleared his throat, and said seriously:

"Let me introduce her formally. This is the Sect Master of our Mingyu Sect, Sect Master Bai Ruotong."

"Sect Master?"

Jiang Yuwei blinked her eyes.

She looked at the little girl in front of her, who was a head shorter than herself, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

She couldn't connect this little girl with the title of Mingyu Sect's Sect Master.

Although Su Li also found it hard to believe, she had experienced more strange things.

Her ability to accept such bizarre situations was stronger than Jiang Yuwei's.

Since Mo Zixing said so, the little girl should indeed be the Sect Master.

However, since she had already resigned from her position as an Elder of the Mingyu Sect and become a free person,

there was no need to pay any respects to the Sect Master anymore.

Thinking this way, Su Li didn't show much of a reaction.

She just looked at Mo Zixing and asked the question in her heart with doubt:

"I remember the Sect Master is in a long-term jadeification, and her appearance should be that of a mature woman."

"Was it you who released her from the jadeification, Zixing? Why did she become like this?"

"What do you mean?"

Sect Master Bai Ruotong puffed out her small chest and said with a dissatisfied frown:

"You, are you saying that I look immature now?"

Mo Zixing glanced at Sect Master Bai Ruotong's flat chest out of the corner of his eye.

He subconsciously compared it to Su Li's obviously more substantial figure.

To be fair.

Actually, what Su Li said was correct.

Mo Zixing withdrew his thoughts, reached out to pull the Little Sect Master back, and cleared his throat to smooth things over:

"It is true that I helped her temporarily release the jadeification, but I didn't intentionally make her body look like this."

"This might be a side effect of the jadeification. It might recover once she's cured."

Mo Zixing patted Sect Master Bai Ruotong's small head and continued:

"Besides, she still has some other hidden ailments that haven't been resolved. Before she's cured, she'll probably have to stay at Qingsu Peak."

Hearing Mo Zixing say he wanted to treat the Little Sect Master, the tips of Su Li's ears turned slightly red.

She immediately remembered how Mo Zixing had unceremoniously solved her Foundation problem back then.

Looking again, what Sect Elder would dare to pat the Sect Master's head so casually?

Could it be that he already...

A picture of Mo Zixing and the tiny Sect Master Bai Ruotong pressed together couldn't help but appear in Su Li's mind.

She quickly shook her head vigorously, shaking off those overly taboo and messy thoughts.

No.

It shouldn't be like that.

It should...

Su Li composed herself and took the initiative to speak:

"Sect Master Bai is new here and must be unfamiliar with Qingsu Peak."

"I'll take you to see the rooms. You can choose one you like to stay in."

Ultimately,

she still couldn't overcome her inner anxiety.

She chose to separate the two as much as possible first.

Mo Zixing himself didn't expect Su Li to have such thoughts.

He only thought Su Li was sensible and knew how to worry about such things for him.

Mo Zixing nodded and said to the Little Sect Master:

"Go with her."

"Mhm."

Sect Master Bai Ruotong nodded.

Although her face still showed a look of dissatisfaction, she obediently followed Su Li.

After taking two steps,

she looked back at Mo Zixing again, and only left after he smiled and waved.

After seeing them off,

Mo Zixing turned to look at Liu Qingyan and reached out to support her arm:

"Revered Master, you should go and rest too."

"I might need you to help me refine some Medicinal Pills for the Sect Master in a while."

"Okay."

Liu Qingyan nodded gently and reached out to straighten his messy collar:

"Don't work too hard. You just came back from the Secret Realm, take a break before getting busy with other things."

After saying that, she also turned and left.

Suddenly, only Mo Zixing and Jiang Yuwei were left in the Sleeping Quarters.

Seeing everyone else had gone,

the Junior Sister stopped pretending.

She pursed her small mouth, hung her head, kicked a small stone at her feet, and muttered softly:

"Senior Brother, there are more and more people."

"Hmm?"

Mo Zixing was stunned for a moment and looked down at her:

"What did you say?"

"Every once in a while, Senior Brother, you bring someone new back."

Jiang Yuwei looked up, her eyes watery and filled with grievance:

"First it was Elder Su, then it was Elder Liu, and now there's even a tiny Sect Master."

"Although it's nice and lively, I... I still miss the old days when it was just the two of us living together."

Hearing this, Mo Zixing couldn't help but laugh.

He knelt down and looked into her eyes:

"Don't worry, Yuwei. No matter how many people come, you will always be my most beloved Junior Sister."

"No one can replace this position."

Jiang Yuwei bit her lip and turned her head away somewhat awkwardly:

"Hmph, who knows if Senior Brother is lying to me."

"How could I lie to you? I never lie."

Mo Zixing smiled and scraped her nose, reaching out to pull her into his arms.

He rubbed Jiang Yuwei's hair and changed the subject:

"But when I saw you practicing your sword just now, your progress was really great. It seems you've already reached Foundation Establishment Stage 2."

Mentioning sword practice, Jiang Yuwei's eyes immediately lit up.

The grievance from just now was thrown to the back of her mind.

She raised her chin proudly:

"Of course! I practice my sword very seriously every day, and Elder Su has also taught me a lot."

She hugged Mo Zixing's neck tightly and said seriously:

"I must become strong quickly so I can keep up with your pace, Senior Brother."

"I don't want to be useless all the time. I want to protect you too!"

Mo Zixing heard this and smiled slightly:

"Actually, as long as you are here, you are already helping me. You are my lucky star."

He lowered his head and planted a light kiss:

"Of course, I 100% support your desire to become strong."

"And I will do my best to help you."

Hearing him say this, Jiang Yuwei didn't let go of her arms around him; instead, she hugged him even tighter:

"Then... how about now?"
