Chapter 201: Chapter 199: Such Obsession
Qin Yu had originally thought that Su Xiyue would, as always, maintain that untouchable and frosty demeanor, but unexpectedly, she gently nodded her head.
She actually admitted it.
Moreover, she softly leaned into his chest, without any trace of resistance or struggle.
After several moments of closeness, the fairy who had once soared high above the nine heavens now seemed to gradually grow accustomed to being embraced by him.
Not only did she not reject it, but on the contrary... she felt reassured, and grounded.
Only then did Qin Yu realize that this little fairy wife—who could remain calm and fearless even when facing a Lotus Platform Cultivator—also harbored, deep inside, a vulnerability and longing for dependence unknown to anyone else.
He gently brushed aside a few loose strands of her black hair, his voice calm yet firm as he said, "In the future, I will personally go to the Hundred Sword Sect and bring you Jian Hai’s dog head!"
That bastard, isn’t he just a Lotus Platform Cultivator?!
Though Qin Yu was calm at the time, he had already made a note of the Hundred Sword Sect in his little notebook.
"Mm."
Su Xiyue softly responded—not perfunctorily, but because she truly believed her man could accomplish it.
In that instant, the weight on her shoulders—that seemed like a thousand pounds—suddenly felt much lighter.
Since the day her Root Bone was tested, she had carried a burden on her back called "responsibility": the old Sect Leader’s kindness, her elder sister’s care, Aunt Liu’s protection...
All of these blessings, for her, had transformed into an invisible pressure. The more she cherished them, the more she dared not slack off even a little.
Day after day, she toiled without rest, eating and sleeping little, all just to bear the heavy burden on her shoulders steadily.
This sense of ease now was something she had never felt before.
Suddenly...
Within Qin Yu’s gaze, the corners of Su Xiyue’s lips revealed a smile, blooming like an ephemeral flower—so pure, so beautiful, so moving it shook one’s heart.
[Su Xiyue Romantic Point: 60 (Deep Affection)]
Qin Yu did not glance at the number on the flame, but instead lowered his head and gently captured the corner of her upturned lips.
It was as if he wished to keep her smile, forever.
She sank into it.
Forgetting everything else, wishing only to melt into his embrace.
Clumsily, she even began to respond, allowing herself to slowly fall deeper.
At some point, the two disappeared from the courtyard, and before long, strange and curious sounds could be heard coming from the room.
...
In the Saintess Cave Mansion.
Leng Ruyu sensed that Su Xiyue had left, and immediately began to anticipate.
After all, as the First Fairy, surely she wouldn’t go back on her word, right?!
After that day’s conversation...
Leng Ruyu felt she had completely figured out Qin Yu’s personality.
Loves saving face!
As long as she used a few tricks, Qin Yu would continually provide her with his Warm Current.
Recalling that scene, the little demoness’s cheeks flushed red, making her appear even more alluring and seductive.
"Hmph, it really wasn’t that impressive, and he won’t even let people talk about it." She huffed coquettishly.
Still, in some ways, he really was quite... powerful.
She was exhausted, yet Qin Yu acted as if nothing happened, still energetic—making it hard for her, as the Demon Sect Leader, to believe it.
His physique truly was extraordinary.
The very first time she saw him, Leng Ruyu knew—even though he was only at Qi Refining Fourth Layer, he had managed to kill a Hundred Sword Sect Qi Refining Ninth Layer disciple.
That speaks for itself.
Time slipped by...
Dawn was already breaking, but Su Xiyue still hadn’t brought Qin Yu over.
"So... entranced?!"
Leng Ruyu wasn’t the least bit angry—her eyes instead sparkled with excitement.
So looking forward to it.
She really wanted to see that kind of First Fairy.
For some reason, as she imagined it, she bit her quilt, her toes curled, and her gaze turned misty.
...
Only when she saw the dawn did Su Xiyue snap out of her reverie.
Her little junior nephew still dared to ride on top of her, this martial aunt!
Simply outrageous!
The thought made her emotions flare up.
[Emotion Point from Su Xiyue +6]
Qin Yu was still picking grapefruits from the courtyard’s trees when suddenly the fruit in his mouth was snatched away. He was stunned.
"I... have to go."
Su Xiyue avoided his gaze and turned her head away.
Seeing her weariness, Qin Yu let her go.
There was plenty of time in the days to come, no use worrying about missing out.
After getting herself together, Su Xiyue seemed to remember something and said, "You, come with me to my cave mansion."
Qin Yu was puzzled.
It was broad daylight.
Did she mean for him to go during the day?
What if someone saw? How could he explain it?
Su Xiyue explained, "Leng Ruyu’s injury hasn’t healed. The two-month period is up tomorrow..."
"Her injury hasn’t healed?"
Hearing about the little demoness, Qin Yu’s eyes flashed with suspicion.
No way?!
Back then, when Su Xiyue was invaded by Black Qi, just a thread of Warm Current had almost cleansed it all.
Though Leng Ruyu’s situation was somewhat different—the Black Qi seemed more deep-rooted—but in those ten hours, he hadn’t slacked for even a moment.
Besides, Leng Ruyu’s Sacred Body was so powerful, it was already equivalent to Su Xiyue’s four or five consecutive days at the time.
Wasn’t that enough?!
"That demoness totally deserves it, besides, she’s already gotten the Warm Current—it’s only a matter of time..."
But Qin Yu still righteously grumbled aloud.
Su Xiyue felt a warm glow inside as she listened.
Qin Yu truly treated her differently, but recalling Leng Ruyu’s pitiful state that day, she couldn’t help but remind him, "Just for today. Treat it as repaying the Demon Sect’s help."
"You... try not to be too... harsh with her."
Qin Yu felt a little distressed by this.
His silly little fairy wife was probably still being fooled by that little demoness, actually feeling sorry for her.
Just wait until he gave that demoness a good lesson!
She dared deceive them? Outrageous!
...
Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion.
When Liu Zixiao arrived, to her surprise, it was Su Xiyue sitting in the courtyard.
"Where’s Qin Yu?" she asked in confusion.
"He... went to help Leng Ruyu heal. He might not come today."
After speaking, Su Xiyue got up and entered the house, heading to the Cultivation Room to find her sister.
"Helping Leng Ruyu heal?"
Liu Zixiao was even more confused.
She knew about Leng Ruyu’s condition—both Immortal Sects were at their wits’ end with that Black Qi.
And she herself had faced it twice!
No matter what method was used, the Black Qi could not be removed. It could invade anything, growing stronger in the process.
Truly troublesome.
Leng Ruyu, infected by Black Qi, was the best example.
Liu Zixiao was glad she had been cautious enough back then.
Qin Yu could actually remove that eerie Black Qi?!
Could it be that her disciple had some hidden side even her master didn’t know?
Let’s see for ourselves.
Tomorrow was the end of the two-month period, after all.
In the Cultivation Room.
Su Xihe was lying there. Though somewhat improved, the aura around her still radiated weakness.
After inspecting her, Su Xiyue’s brows furrowed slightly.
The injuries inside her sister’s body had been suppressed but, to fully recover, it would likely require a long period of gentle nurturing.
