Chapter 306 - 304: Revealed
"This rebellious disciple sure has a bit too much free time on his hands."
Compared to Liu Zixiao’s subtle and keen observation, the Sect Leader was always a little wary of Qin Yu.
As soon as she walked in, she couldn’t help but scan her surroundings, just in case this rebellious disciple was up to... something new and weird again.
However, when she saw the gorgeous scene of mountains and water in front of her, she did pause for a second, seemingly stunned.
It looked so much like the main peak.
And the courtyard was highly accurate in its restoration; if she couldn’t see the scenery outside, she’d almost believe she was still in her own cave residence.
If this place really had all those benefits Qin Yu talked about... maybe it wouldn’t hurt to live here.
"Hmm?"
When the Sect Leader entered her residence, the first thing that struck her was... how familiar it felt.
Upon closer inspection, wasn’t this her own room?
Inside, the placement of the tables and chairs, the scrolls on the wall, the bookcases all staggered just so—even the exact position of the bed—were perfectly replicated from her memory, not a thing out of place.
The Sect Leader turned slowly, a subtle light flickering in her eyes, and stared steadily at Qin Yu.
This rebellious disciple had actually copied her room to the most painstaking detail, even the little trinkets that could be completely ignored were left untouched.
To say it was premeditated wouldn’t even be an exaggeration.
But, at the same time, she could see... just how much Qin Yu cared for her with that gentle attentiveness.
Only someone who truly kept you in their heart would notice every little thing you did in your daily life.
For reasons beyond her control, a faint sense of happiness blossomed in the Sect Leader’s heart. Then, with a hint of mischief, she shot a glance at Liu Zixiao.
It was as if she was showing off.
Liu Zixiao just rolled her eyes slightly, a helpless little smile at her lips.
This dear sister of hers still hadn’t noticed anything was off—a sure sign she’d been completely swept away by that rebellious disciple...
Blown away.
Ha!
She was actually looking forward to what the Sect Leader would do when she finally learned the truth.
Anyway, she didn’t care anymore. She’d already chosen to stick with that rebellious disciple. Whatever needed facing, she’d face it sooner or later.
Besides, wasn’t the Sect Leader still standing in front of her as a barrier?!
Thinking so, Liu Zixiao suddenly felt much better herself.
The Sect Leader was in an exceptionally good mood and sat down naturally at the edge of the bed, appreciating the softness beneath her.
Not bad, not bad, just as comfortable.
However, a trace of doubt crept into her mind: why was this bed much larger than the one in her own room?!
And she didn’t even need such a big bed, did she?
"So, Master, are you satisfied?"
Seeing the smile that Su Xihe couldn’t quite hide at the corners of her mouth, Qin Yu naturally moved closer, eager for a little intimate moment.
But the Sect Leader had long since gotten used to his tricks—before he got close, she pulled Liu Zixiao in front of her, neatly keeping herself and Qin Yu apart.
"I suppose it’s acceptable—but as for living here long-term, I never agreed to that."
Then she added, "Even if I wanted to, it would have to depend on my mood."
Tsk!
The classic tsundere move.
"The Spiritual Qi is abundant here, and you can even train at twice the speed. Sect Leader, why don’t I stay here and you..."
"No way!"
Liu Zixiao wasn’t even done speaking before the Sect Leader cut her off.
"What, you want to stay too?"
Liu Zixiao’s voice had a teasing edge to it.
"Of course I don’t want to stay!"
The Sect Leader glared at her. "I’m his master. I naturally have to supervise his cultivation!"
Though that’s what she said, her face—stunningly beautiful though it was—turned bright red, her heartbeat racing away in her chest.
This was a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land that most cultivators couldn’t even dream of. What reason could she possibly have to refuse?
And it wasn’t just about fast cultivation here.
Improving Root Bone... That would also go a lot faster, right?!
Anything you did here would yield twice the results with half the effort.
"Alright, I’m going to cultivate..."
The Sect Leader tried to maintain her dignified air, but when she glanced back, she was stunned to find that her rebellious disciple and her dear sister were already...
Making out.
A moment later, the two had already changed into fresh clothes.
"You two... mmph..."
Shamed and furious, the Sect Leader wanted to throw these two shameless lovebirds out, but before she could get a word out, Qin Yu pulled her into his arms, sealing her protest with a kiss.
Poor thing couldn’t even escape if she tried.
Her dear sister was even an accomplice—not only not helping, but helping her change clothes instead!
And mocking her, too.
"Tch, just a silly little girl."
So annoying!
How could it be her fault?!
The Sect Leader might have felt embarrassed, but...
She realized, her rebellious disciple actually liked it a lot.
Mhm.
Liked it very much indeed.
This guy really is... not decent at all!
...
[+8 Emotion Point from Liu Zixiao]
[+5 Emotion Point from Su Xihe]
Liu Shifu’s Romantic Point really does increase fast, but the Sect Leader’s isn’t that slow either.
After all, only a few days have even passed.
Goes to show, even though she talks tough, deep down she quite enjoys being spoiled like this.
Qin Yu just loves this kind of tsundere Sect Leader.
She’s just a simple tsundere. As the Sect Leader, she’s not willful, nor would she push her luck just because she’s being spoiled.
It’s just not possible.
So, this kind of tsundere is just... adorable.
With a unique charm all her own.
Liu Zixiao was defeated fast, but Su Xihe, with her Innate Sacred Body, still had stamina left—she could even pin down the rebellious disciple at will.
But suddenly, she froze in her tracks.
After all, with her Refining-level Spiritual Power, she could hear... something outside.
Seemed like it... was Lin Shuishui?!
"Huh?!"
Su Xihe was completely stunned.
And then, even more voices...
She realized something all at once.
Qin Yu’s Dao Companions... seemed to have already moved in.
Then... what about my little sister?!
Immediately, visible tension shot through Su Xihe.
And she suddenly realized something else.
Just now, when Liu Zixiao went to close the window, she’d thought it was overkill.
After all, there weren’t any outsiders here.
But thinking back, her dear sister obviously realized something earlier than she did.
But the thing is, these rooms here didn’t seem to have the same soundproofing as a typical room in a cave residence.
So just now...
Was she discovered?!
With a "pop," she bounced up from the rebellious disciple, wanting to dash out, only to realize she still needed Qin Yu. "Quickly, get me out of here!"
Her voice trembled from nerves.
"Master."
Qin Yu leaned over, hugging her gently and whispered into her ear, "You really think Xiyue doesn’t know what’s going on between us?"
At that, the originally flustered Sect Leader went blank in surprise.
That’s right.
When she’d been bullied by this rebellious disciple, in her moment of madness, she’d hogged him for a full ten days straight.
Ten whole days, after all.
Any excuse now would just sound flat, right?
Even if it was secluded meditation, Qin Yu hadn’t really made any major breakthroughs recently.
