Chapter 124 - Is It Funny That the Reincarnated Senior Sister Is Also Being Pursued?
"Little Fox, what are Bai Lian and the other lady doing?" Bao Qin crouched down and asked the fox beside her covertly. Unfortunately, the fox couldn't hear anything at the moment. She was staring fixedly at Bai Lian, who blushed while covering her ears, as if her eyes were emitting flames. How infuriating! That shameless woman, Bai Lian, was doing such despicable things in front of Little Fox. It's simply... envy-inducing! Wu Ming, you shameless Bai Lian, just you wait! Once my Twin Souls technique is perfected and the Moon Fox's human form can be sustained for longer, I'll fiercely bite your ears! Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not underestimate a poor fox! Bai Lian had keen hearing and despite Bao Qin’s hushed voice, she heard every word clearly. Consequently, she became even more embarrassed and couldn't bear it any longer, so she suddenly wriggled out from Mu Xing He’s embrace. "Senior Sister Mu, I thought disciples of Tian Xu God Sect were all noble gentlemen." "We've only been acquainted for a short while, and how could you engage in such frivolous behavior towards Lian’er?" Bai Lian misunderstood. "Senior Sister Bai, you've misunderstood. Disciples of Tian Xu God Sect are indeed all noble gentlemen." Mu Xing He seemed to derive great satisfaction from Bai Lian’s embarrassed demeanor and spoke with an ample smile. "However, my conduct is not righteous enough, but it doesn't represent all disciples of Tian Xu God Sect." Bai Lian: What? So, you're not even feeling guilty for your behavior just now? And you're proud of it? She felt very angry, and her moist face puffed up, waiting eagerly for Mu Xing He. Mu Xing He felt that if glares could cause harm, Bai Lian's angry gaze probably held considerable power. It could melt one's heart. "Just now, Senior Sister Bai was simply too cute. I couldn't help myself and lost my composure." "If Senior Sister Bai feels disadvantaged, you can always retaliate~" She pointed to her own earlobes, smiling slyly. Although her emotions towards Bai Lian were quite complex, those emotions were ultimately the result of past memories. Faced with the familiar yet unfamiliar Lian’er at present, she often forgot those emotions. The current Bai Lian surprised her more than ever before. Just a bit of teasing made her blush and look shy like a small animal, extremely cute. It was as though staying by her side made her forget the memories and pain from her previous life and experience the sweetness she had once been addicted to. Perhaps in the future, for various reasons, their relationship might not continue as it is. However, until then, she cherished this sweetness like never before. "Heaven, no need to bother going back, it's atrocious!" Bai Lian grumbled irritably. Mu Xing He's schemes were heard throughout Taihua Sword Sect. Given her current pathetic state, she had to admit she wouldn't be able to withdraw without a hitch. In the end, Mu Xing He would capture her and say she flirted first. She understood Mu Xing He too well! Based on Mu Xing He's recent behavior, there was no doubt she was a reborn person, and her rebirth might be the earliest among all heroines, otherwise, she wouldn't have cultivated in Tian Xu God Sect at the age of six. In the game, Mu Xing He genuinely began practicing at the age of fourteen, so, no matter how gifted, she would be in the later stages of Zither Heart by now. However, Mu Xing He's cultivation was unfathomable even to her. Since she was a reborn person, why had Mu Xing He's character changed so drastically? She couldn't help but ponder. After observing them for some time, she had noticed that the personalities of the heroines had changed to some extent. She didn't understand the reasons behind this but could guess that, after her death in the game, the heroines didn't directly reborn but lived for some time without her. Then they were reborn one after another. She couldn't help but think—what did they experience during that time when she wasn't around? Were they... happier and more joyful than when she was alive? "Senior Sister Bai, since Princess Wei Yang has sent a maid to guide us, we shall depart." Mu Xing He's gentle voice resounded in Bai Lian's ears, and she saw Mu Xing He's profound eyes in a daze. In that moment, she seemed to see the game's Mu Sister who could see through people's hearts. But how could that be possible? Even if one were a deity, they couldn't discern others' thoughts. "Do all Daoist sect cultivators speak in such enigmatic riddles? Wanting to leave and talking about looking forward." She retorted. "However, it's not early now, we should indeed set off. Yao Guang City is a full twenty thousand miles away from Xia Capital, a distance that an ordinary person may never complete in their lifetime.” Even if one takes a fairy boat, it still requires a full two days. Although flying on a magical artifact is faster for cultivators, most of them choose the fairy boat for a simple reason. Just because I can cycle faster than an airplane doesn't mean I would choose to ride a bike. It's about comfort and feeling dignified. “Bai Lian, are you going to Xia Capital? Bao Qin asked timidly, as she had been completely captivated by Little Fox after meeting her and became Little Fox's mount. The fox was now asleep in her arms. Though it was less comfortable to hold than Bai Lian, it had the advantage of being dainty, obedient, and good at serving Little Fox. It was no wonder it could become the maid of a human princess. Unlike Bai Lian, apart from being voluptuous, soft, and fragrant, she was entirely useless! Truly in need of discipline! I'll have to mention to Bai Ze to provide a few such maids in Bai Ze Palace. Those fox spirits in the palace now, hmph, not good at serving, only know how to vie with the mistress for men! "Yes, Bao Qin is Princess Wei Yang's maid. Won't you come back with us?" Bai Lian softly asked. "I, I also want to go with you." Bao Qin looked somewhat downcast. “But I've lost the spirit stone given to me by the princess, and without it, I can't buy a boat ticket.” "Boat tickets require spirit stones, and Bao Qin doesn't have any. Without spirit stones, she needs to earn them, but Bao Qin doesn't know how. I, I'll never be able to return... I'll starve to death!" She sobbed. Seeing Bao Qin about to fall into her own tragic illusion, Bai Lian quickly comforted her, "It's alright, Bao Qin. I can lend you some spirit stones. When we return to Xia Capital, you can give the spirit stones back to me." Bao Qin's eyes brightened instantly. "Really?!" "I said I wouldn't lie to you, Bao Qin." "Bai Lian, you're truly amazing!" Looking at the admiration in the girl's eyes, Bai Lian felt a little guilty. Okay, she had actually deceived Bao Qin, such as telling her in the game that she was Princess Xia Wei Yang's maid sent with her to marry and serve her. She remembered that Bao Qin had believed it and had cried while learning how to serve better from the palace maids.
