Lin Xueru clung to Chen Yi unabashedly, her stunning face filled with a naive smile.
Chen Yi affectionately embraced her, smiling as he said, “Haven’t seen you for a few months, little girl, have you gained weight?”
Lin Xueru imdiately looked up, her eyes filled with his reflection, and naively asked:
“Would Brother Yi dislike if I got fat?”
“Of course…” Seeing her beco nervous, Chen Yi couldn’t bear to tease her any longer and added: “No.”
She hasn’t gotten fat, but the little girl has indeed grown up.
At seventeen, her beauty had fully blossod.
Her black hair was pinned up with a hairpin, unadorned, framing her lon-seed face and sparkling black eyes.
Her nose wasn’t particularly straight, but her lips were cherry-like and plump, adding a softness to her beauty.
Chen Yi looked at her for a while, staring until Lin Xueru blushed and lowered her head, then turned to look at Ning Xue and Xiao Xuanzhen not far away, asking:
“Senior Sister Ning, is there anything to eat? I’m hungry.”
“I’ll prepare sothing right now.”
Ning Xue smiled gently and turned to go to the dining hall, declining the service of the outer sect disciples on night duty instead, personally preparing so delicacies herself.
Xiao Xuanzhen rolled her eyes at him, tempted to give him a piece of her mind, but seeing Lin Xueru in his arms, she swallowed her words and instead reminded:
“Junior Brother, Senior Sister Ning is about to leave for Taizhou Mountain Battlefield.”
Chen Yi’s brow furrowed slightly, and after patting the little girl, he took her hand and entered the private room.
Although he had anticipated this day would co, he didn’t expect it so soon.
Lin Xueru whispered, “Senior Sister Ning said she would leave in a few days. Senior Sister Xiao and I were persuading her to wait until you ca back before going to Taizhou Mountain.”
Chen Yi nodded, swept away the book scrolls and other items from the table.
Pulling out Nine Flower Cakes, Clear Spring Wine, lotus seeds and other fruits from the Suru Bag, he smiled and said:
“Luckily I ca back earlier, otherwise I would have to wait a long ti to see Senior Sister Ning again. Let’s treat tonight as her farewell party.”
Lin Xueru smiled broadly, then wrinkled her nose and sniffed, her eyes bright as she said:
“It slls wonderful, Brother Yi.”
Xiao Xuanzhen, who had followed them in, sat down at the table, eyeing the assorted fruits and grabbed a piece of Nine Flower Cake and tossed it into her mouth.
“Tastes good.”
After swallowing, she was about to grab another piece but was stopped by a slap from Chen Yi on her hand.
“One piece each, no more.”
Xiao Xuanzhen glared at him: “Junior Brother, just a piece of cake?”
Lin Xueru also advised, “If Senior Sister wants it, she can have my piece too.”
Chen Yi shook his head, glancing at Xiao Xuanzhen and said, “This isn’t just any ordinary cake, but a divine item that preserves youth forever.”
Seeing he wasn’t joking, Xiao Xuanzhen widened her eyes: “Is that true?”
“Of course.”
Chen Yi shoved a piece of Nine Flower Cake into Lin Xueru’s mouth, saying irritably:
“This was a gift I specifically prepared for you, originally planned to give it tomorrow.”
The little girl swallowed quickly, chuckling with a mouthful of lingering fragrance, “Delicious.”
She didn’t care whether it could preserve youth, anything given by Brother Yi was fine.
Xiao Xuanzhen smacked her lips, suddenly feeling so regret.
“No wonder I feel a warm sensation… Ah, I ate so quickly just now that I didn’t even taste it.”
Unfortunately, she couldn’t have more.
Chen Yi had only taken out three pieces of Nine Flower Cake, the rest were intended for Fairy Hua Xianzi, her sisters, and Du Yan, among others.
“Have so wine, this wine can strengthen the physical body, and it equally benefits you.”
He only had two urns of Clear Spring Wine; having consud one with Chen Yuan earlier, finishing this last urn tonight seed fitting.
He would have more opportunities to prepare for others during the upcoming “Xunwang Heaven” ceremony.
Not much later, Ning Xue ca with a few plates.
“Junior Brother, try this and see if it suits your taste.”
Lin Xueru got up, took them from her, and pulled her to the seat, “Senior Sister, Brother Yi has prepared a gift for you.”
“What?” Ning Xue was startled, her lovely eyes turned towards Chen Yi and guessed,
“Junior Brother, Master will personally accompany to Taizhou Mountain, you didn’t have to do this, I…”
Xiao Xuanzhen quickly interrupted, “Senior Sister, no need to be polite with him.”
She briefly explained, then placed the last piece of Nine Flower Cake into Ning Xue’s hand.
Ning Xue looked at the Nine Flower Cake in her hand, then to Chen Yi, her eyes softening.
“Thank you, Junior Brother.”
Chen Yi shook his head, then signaled the three won to join together, chatting and laughing about their recent trip down the mountain.
Although Xiao Xuanzhen had already recounted it once before he returned, the little girl still held his hand and asked for details,
especially about the thrilling parts, always remarking, “If only she had been there too.”
Ning Xue showed no particular reaction, maintaining a gentle smile throughout with tender light in her eyes as if she wanted to etch Chen Yi there.
Chen Yi thoughtfully asked, “Senior Sister Ning, is Master also returning to Taizhou Mountain?”
Ning Xue shook her head: “Master will only briefly stay at Taizhou Mountain for a few days.”
“The situation in the Wei Dynasty’s territory has been unrest lately, he’s worried I might encounter accidents going alone.”
“Also, since the first senior sister and the second senior brother have been on Taizhou Mountain for so long, Master wishes to check on their condition, and incidentally escort to join them.”
ntioning this, Ning Xue paused, her face breaking into a smile.
“Junior Brother, you don’t need to worry about , with Senior Sister Zhan and Senior Brother Lv there, nothing will happen to on Taizhou Mountain.”
Chen Yi nodded with a smile, for the ti being, he wouldn’t worry.
According to the content displayed on the screen, the mishap to Senior Sister Ning and others would occur after the bet between the demon and the Human Race.
Before that, he had sufficient ti to grow.
