164: Chapter 164 Only His Voice Was Heard

Jiang Yuwei held her breath, still listening carefully.

But just a moment ago, she could clearly hear the voices of Mo Zixing and Su Li speaking inside.

Now, however, there was suddenly no sound at all.

Her heart skipped a beat, thinking that her sneaking over to eavesdrop had been discovered.

If she got caught, how would she explain it?

Should she just say she wanted it too?

She pressed herself stiffly against the wall, not daring to even breathe heavily.

But after waiting for quite a while, there was still no sound from inside.

Jiang Yuwei carefully moved her numb feet and tentatively pushed the door slightly.

Creak.

A soft sound.

The door was actually pushed open a crack.

She leaned over, squinting to look inside.

The room was empty.

The bedding on the bed was a bit messy, and the teacup on the table was still steaming faintly, but there wasn't a soul to be seen.

However, the window was open.

A gentle breeze came in through the window, blowing the curtains inside the room.

"Did they leave through the window?"

Jiang Yuwei muttered softly.

She actually wanted to go in and take a look, but then thought that this was someone else's room after all.

It wouldn't be good to go in like this.

If Senior Brother Mo discovered her like this, he might be unhappy.

Thinking this, she finally closed the door.

The Junior Sister felt a bit dejected and went back to the corridor, sitting down on the floor with a thud.

Senior Brother hadn't accompanied her to Cultivate for a long time.

The last time they Cultivated together, it was only because she had proactively run over and pestered Senior Brother that he agreed.

Could it be that Senior Brother didn't need her anymore because he now had Sect Master Bai, who was also small in stature?

Jiang Yuwei hugged her knees tightly, her thoughts in turmoil.

No, no, Senior Brother wasn't that kind of person.

He still remembered to bring her suitable Heaven And Earth Treasure and helped her Breakthrough to the Crystallization Stage; how could he not want her?

She shook her head vigorously, shaking off those bad thoughts.

The people around Senior Brother each had their own strengths.

Some of them could help Senior Brother handle Sect affairs, and some could fight enemies alongside him.

Only she remained the Junior Sister with the lowest cultivation, unable to help.

Her only advantage was that she had known Senior Brother the longest.

Jiang Yuwei sniffled.

She also wanted to become stronger quickly, wanted to fight side-by-side with Senior Brother, and didn't want to be protected behind him forever.

Just at this moment.

Plop.

A very faint, distant sound drifted over.

Patter, patter...

What was that sound?

Jiang Yuwei was stunned and came back to her senses.

She looked around, and finally raised her head to look towards the direction above the roof beams.

It seemed to be on the roof?

The sound seemed intermittent, and a bit familiar.

It was a bit like light rain, but not quite the same.

She stood up and walked outside.

She poked her head out from under the eaves and looked up, wanting to see what was making the noise.

But the roof was empty; it seemed like there was nothing there.

"Strange, did I mishear it?"

Just as Jiang Yuwei was puzzled, a drop of warm dew happened to land on her cheek:

"Ah, what is that?"

She was slightly startled and quickly raised her hand to wipe it off.

"What on earth is this?"

She frowned and looked up at the roof again.

This dew seemed to carry a faint scent of orchids, along with a subtle, strange smell.

Just then.

Above, an extremely fast black shadow flashed across from the other side of the eaves.

The speed of the shadow was astonishing.

Even with Jiang Yuwei's perception at Crystallization Stage 1, she couldn't see clearly what it was.

However, the figure seemed somewhat familiar?

Jiang Yuwei felt a stir in her heart.

But just as she was about to shout, the black shadow had already disappeared.

"Hmph, Senior Brother must be deliberately hiding from me!"

She stomped her feet in frustration, glanced at the empty room, and had no choice but to turn and walk towards her own quarters.

Jiang Yuwei's footsteps gradually faded away.

On the roof.

Mo Zixing held Su Li's still-weak body in his arms and raised his head slightly.

He watched the direction Jiang Yuwei had left in, a trace of a smile flashing in his eyes.

"Alright, she's gone."

He lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms.

Su Li was buried in his chest, her cheeks flushed a deep red, and her neck stained with an alluring crimson hue.

The kiss just now had been too hurried and intense, so long that she couldn't breathe.

She still hadn't recovered, her chest heaving violently, every breath carrying a warm fragrance.

A few strands of sweat-dampened hair clung to her neck.

Her lips were swollen and moist from the kiss, slightly parted, revealing a bit of her pink tongue.

"Why did you suddenly think of doing this on the roof..."

Su Li looked up, gazing at him with somewhat dazed eyes:

"We almost got discovered by Yuwei just now."

"Don't you think this is quite nice?"

Mo Zixing lowered his head and gently bit her neck slightly:

"Bathing in the sunlight, feeling the breeze—isn't this more interesting than being in a stuffy room?"

Actually, he had originally intended to take Su Li to that space inside his Storage Ring.

It was absolutely safe there, and they wouldn't be disturbed by anyone.

But the moment he thought of Sect Master Bai Ruotong still sleeping in there, he dismissed that idea.

"What's nice about it..."

Su Li turned her head away and whispered:

"I get very nervous here."

"Is that so?"

Mo Zixing chuckled, reached out, and pinched her chin, forcing her to turn her head and look at him:

"But I only felt half of that."

Without waiting for her to say anything more.

Mo Zixing leaned down and kissed her again.

One of his hands wrapped around her waist, pulling her tightly into his embrace, letting her body press completely against his.

His other hand gently stroked her long hair, his fingertips brushing across her delicate shoulder.

Spiritual energy was once again transferred into Su Li's body.

Su Li closed her eyes, letting herself drown in the kiss.
