Chapter 305: Senior brother choked again
A crescent moon hung far away on the branches, and the drizzle crackled on the eaves outside the inn’s room.
Ye Anping stood before the window, hands clasped behind his back, gazing up at the stars in the sky. He felt this was likely the calm before the storm, a moment of peaceful respite.
The affairs of the Emperor Sect were merely a game between Si Xuanji and the Emperor of the Central Domain. With only a Foundation Establishment cultivation, he naturally couldn’t participate in the match between the two Void Realm cultivators. His role now was to help Si Xuanji gain the upper hand.
This time, he was not a player but a chess piece of Si Xuanji, placed strategically to influence the Emperor of the Central Domain.
When Liang Zhu returned with Su Wan’er to Tainan City, the first move of this chess game would have been made.
After that, they wouldn’t have time to rest and recover. Yuan Quan Town was the last place where they could find peace and tranquility.
“Sigh–“
Ye Anping closed the window, intending to lie down for a while. However, as soon as he extinguished the lamp in the room, he heard Feng Yudie’s screams from the adjacent room.
Hiss – Yeah, yeah, yeah!!!
“… …”
Ye Anping pursed his lips. He wasn’t planning to pay attention to it, but just as he lay on the bed and was about to put in earplugs to sleep, Xiao Tian flew through the wall and landed on his face.
“Anping, quickly go help Yudie apply the medicine. She injured her lower back and can’t reach it herself. There’s a big lump on her waist. Don’t you want to massage her lump?” Xiao Tian said.
“I’m not in the mood.”
“Then can’t you give her some physical therapy? Help her smooth her body meridians. I see many miscellaneous roots growing in her body, meridians…”
“… …”
Ye Anping pursed his lips. Initially, he didn’t want to go, but the next moment, Feng Yudie’s mournful cries of “Yeah, yeah!” echoed from the adjacent room.
After hesitating momentarily, he sighed, “Just in time to see how well she has mastered the Mysterious Yin Technique.”
With that, Ye Anping got up from his bed, walked out of his room, and pushed open the door to the next room after lightly tapping it several times without waiting for Feng Yudie’s response.
In the room, Feng Yudie was sitting on the bed with one leg bent, wearing only a white silk bandeau covering her front. She held a bottle of medicine and a cotton ball, awkwardly applying it to a huge swelling on her back.
As Ye Anping entered, his gaze unintentionally fell on Feng Yudie’s white silk bandeau, but he quickly realized the inappropriateness of his stare.
Knowing Feng Yudie’s character, she would not hesitate to draw her spiritual sword and shoot it toward his eyes if she felt uncomfortable.
Reacting swiftly, Ye Anping quickly turned his head to avoid any confrontation. However, it seemed he had misjudged the situation.
Feng Yudie didn’t immediately attack him with her spiritual sword. Instead, upon seeing him, she greeted him,
“Oh, Young Master Ye! Perfect timing! Come and help me with this medicine, I can’t reach this spot.”
Without further delay, Feng Yudie lay on the bed, motioning for him to come closer and apply the medicine for her.
“…” Ye Anping hesitated for a moment at the door. He was slightly surprised that Feng Yudie didn’t attack him, but he quickly regained his composure, closed the door, and walked over to the bedside.
“You’re only wearing a bandeau, and you didn’t lock the door?” He asked with a furrowed brow.
“Huh!” Feng Yudie looked puzzled, then glanced at the room door. “Forgot…”
“Forgot!” Ye Anping raised an eyebrow, incredulous.
“Isn’t that… thinking that nothing will happen to you anyway if you are here?” Ye Anping questioned with a raised eyebrow.
Feng Yudie chuckled and tied up her long silver hair, moving it to the side of her face, revealing her clean and fair back.
“Stop talking about this, help me apply the medicine,” She urged.
Ye Anping hesitated for a moment, his gaze unconsciously shifting away. Then, he picked up the small medicine bottle and cotton ball from the side, sat by the bed, and applied the ointment to the lump on her lower back.
“Hiss–“
“Bear it,” He advised as he continued applying the medicine.
Watching Feng Yudie swinging her feet back and forth, seemingly happy, Ye Anping couldn’t help but break the silence after a while,
“You’re wearing a belly band. I saw it. Aren’t you annoyed?”
“…”
Upon hearing this question, Feng Yudie paused, suddenly realizing the oversight.
Yes!
Why didn’t she draw her sword and strike at Ye Anping just now, as she would have done in the past?
After a moment of silence, she nodded thoughtfully,
“Well… maybe it’s because I’ve been with Young Master Ye for a long time, and I’ve come to feel that you don’t seem much like a man, Young Master Ye. Hehe~~”
“…You find that amusing?”
?
Ye Anping gave a slight twitch of his eyes, then promptly applied pressure to her lower back with a firm pinch.
In the following moment, Feng Yudie’s eyes flickered open, and she hastily bit down on her quilt in pain.
“Ouch!! Ye, Young Master Ye! Hiss——…”
“Sorry, I might have used a tad too much force, hehe~~”
“…”
Ye Anping rolled his eyes at her, then, after tending to her injury, he simply gestured with his hand like a sword and smoothly slid it down Feng Yudie’s spine, lightly tapping her tailbone.
“Hey… What are you doing?”
“I’m helping to align your meridians and checking your progress with the Mysterious Yin Technique. It can unlock the dragon’s spine, you know, you can feel it.”
Feng Yudie’s cheeks flushed a bit as she turned to glance at Ye Anping’s hand on her back, and she pouted,
“This feels so weird…”
“It’s just a bit itchy. Bear with it.”
“Oh…~~”
“Don’t scream.”
“Hey…”
Feng Yudie’s blush deepened as she tightly pressed her lips together, occasionally sneaking glances at Ye Anping, who was focused on assisting her with her body veins. After a moment of contemplation, she asked,
“Young Master Ye…”
“What is it?”
“You’re quite fond of Junior Sister Pei, right?”
At that, Ye Anping’s fingers abruptly paused, and he squinted slightly, anticipating another remark that would leave him speechless. So, he simply remained silent.
“……”
Feng Yudie, seeing his silence, furrowed her brow and said,
“You clearly favor Junior Sister Pei so much!”
Ye Anping nodded slightly and replied,
“Isn’t it obvious? Why bring this up?”
“If Junior Sister Pei likes me, you must agree to let her marry me. Otherwise, she’ll be upset.”
“Since when did my junior sister like you?”
“Hmph~~” Feng Yudie proudly puckered her lips, “Today, Junior Sister Pei called me so warmly, which means she’s taken a liking to me.”
“Called you warmly!”
“She called me an idiot!”
“… … ”
As expected, Ye Anping was once again rendered speechless by this remark. He sighed, then increased the pressure of his fingers threefold.
Suddenly, screams filled the room.
“Ouch!! You’re getting back at me personally!!”
“…Ah.”
“I will absolutely never give up on Junior Sister Pei! Oh~~~”
