Chapter 451 - 436: The Little Fox Is Missing! (Part 2)
The bedding on the bed has been changed to new ones, but still, some scent remains.
Bai Yaosha paused, her gaze turning to the window, moving gracefully.
The scent here seems quite intense too.
Very soon, Bai Yaosha discovered that many places in the room, the table, the bathtub behind the screen...
Seemingly everywhere was filled with this unique scent.
"Sister, why don’t you go rest in the loft for now?"
Bai Yaoyin’s little face had somehow turned entirely red; she naturally knew what scent her sister had detected, those places were all...
Marks left during her cultivation!
"No need for such trouble, besides, we should be more discreet so those old folks won’t pressure Father again."
Bai Yaosha shook her head, expressing refusal.
In the Carefree Pavilion, there are certainly confidants of several elders; if they see me here, they’ll undoubtedly report back to the clan.
Every time she went to the Carefree Pavilion, she would conceal her face with a veil; if she stayed in the loft, sooner or later, someone with intentions would find flaws.
Upon hearing her sister’s words, Bai Yaoyin didn’t persuade any further.
"Yaoyin, what exactly happened to you today?"
Bai Yaosha looked at her hesitant sister, a bit confused.
Why is her sister acting so strangely today?
"Ah? I, I’m fine."
Bai Yaoyin responded quickly, but the panic on her face had already betrayed her guilt.
Though they hadn’t seen each other in four years, having grown up together, Bai Yaosha immediately sensed her abnormality.
Seeing her sister’s unusual blush, Bai Yaosha suddenly thought of a possibility, her expression changing slightly.
"Last night, did Master Qin stay here overnight?"
Bai Yaosha cautiously inquired.
"Yes."
Bai Yaoyin didn’t hide it; facing her sister’s peculiar gaze, she couldn’t help but add an explanation: "We were discussing important matters, it was... cultivation."
Improving Root Bone is also cultivation!
This is indeed important.
"Oh~"
Bai Yaosha stared directly at her; her sister simply wouldn’t lie to her, and this guilty demeanor was too obvious.
"You wouldn’t have..."
"No!"
Bai Yaoyin immediately denied it.
Just after she spoke, she realized her reaction might have been too intense.
"You really like Master Qin?"
Bai Yaosha did not expose her sister but seriously asked.
Bai Yaoyin remained silent for a while, finally admitting it.
"You..."
Bai Yaosha was about to ask what she saw in him but upon reconsideration, realized that Qin Yu, whether in terms of status, strength, or appearance, seemed flawless.
Speaking of status, Qin Yu is the Royal Court Tributor of the Great Yan Immortal Country and even repaired an ancient array in one night, something even veteran array masters couldn’t achieve.
As for strength, Qin Yu’s aura is mysterious, clearly having stepped into the Lotus Platform Realm!
Possibly even beyond.
If he has already comprehended Dao Rhyme and stepped into Foundation Establishment, he would be regarded as a genius within the Ancient Race.
His appearance is unarguable.
Bai Yaosha is not shallow, but even she agrees that Qin Yu is handsome, and unlike those effeminate men, he exudes a strong masculine aura.
Honestly, if the family union target was someone like the prodigious Qin Yu, she wouldn’t have...
Good heavens!
Bai Yaosha shook her head, stunned within; what was she thinking!
This brain, it’s better off unused!
"Whether or not I can return to the clan land depends on you in the future."
Bai Yaosha’s face showed a touch of smile, sincerely speaking.
If it was someone else, she would definitely consider more for her sister to prevent deception.
But for a prodigy like Qin Yu, even with her discerning eye, she cannot find any faults.
Moreover, last night she saw that whenever Qin Yu looked at her sister, his gaze was filled with affection, and his hand never left hers.
"How far have you two progressed? Have you expressed your feelings?"
Bai Yaosha suddenly felt curious.
Just the day before, Master Qin was still an esteemed array grandmaster in her mind, unattainable.
Now, in the blink of an eye, the master she admired had become her brother-in-law?!
"Didn’t you already smell it?"
Bai Yaoyin blushed, muttering inwardly, but dared not say it out loud.
If her sister knew about these... perhaps it wouldn’t be so good?
After all, according to family rules, without confirming their identity...
It is absolutely not allowed!
Seeing her sister’s shy demeanor, Bai Yaosha couldn’t contain her gossiping nature, beginning to inquire in detail.
...
Jade Flower Palace.
"You sly little fox, you even ran to the Imperial Palace to snatch a man from Little Ling’Er?!"
The Empress Dowager’s eyes widened, then her figure swiftly headed towards Huayang Hall.
"Husband, who is she?"
Returning to Huayang Hall, Little Ling’Er and the group of beloved wives emerged from the Lifebound Space, and upon seeing the stunning girl beside Qin Yu, their faces were filled with astonishment.
Tu Jiujiu’s beauty and figure were as if she had stepped out from a painting, looking like a fairy.
Qin Yu had just been out for a night and brought back such a disastrous beauty?!
"Brother Qin Yu."
Little Ling’Er softly called, and as her gaze fell upon the linked hands, an unusual emotion arose in her heart.
"She is Tu Jiujiu, she got separated from her sister, so she temporarily returned with me."
Qin Yu explained, introducing Tu Jiujiu to his beloved wives.
Regarding this reason, the group of beloved wives were skeptical, yet not entirely resistant.
The young girl standing before them was incredibly beautiful!
Even if Qin Yu had brought her back for her beauty and figure, they wouldn’t mind.
