Immortal Fairies Always Have Designs on Me-Chapter 241 - 140 "How can she like me if she doesn’t even understand me?

Chapter 241: Chapter 140 "How can she like me if she doesn’t even understand me?

After Xiao Yinruo pulled the Master away, Lu Jin’an arrived at the entrance of a shop without any signboard and looked inside.

Nanzhi and the Senior Sister were standing in front of a painting, which indeed depicted the scene of him slaying mutant beasts in the Grotto Heaven.

Lu Jin’an frowned slightly, convinced that no one had painted such a scene because he had never heard of it—the Junior Brothers and Sisters of the Wandao Sect never discussed such a topic.

Moreover, he didn’t remember defeating mutant beasts in such a manner.

Thinking of how the Master deliberately mentioned this nonexistent matter earlier, Lu Jin’an guessed that it was probably the Master’s handiwork.

"Did the Master intentionally want me to be alone with Palace Master Xiao?"

Contemplating this, Lu Jin’an told Nanzhi and the Senior Sister, "Buy it and take a look at it slowly," then stepped towards the alley where Palace Master Xiao had gone with the Master.

Even though he still couldn’t understand Palace Master Xiao’s peculiar words and inexplicable behavior while alone, he didn’t want to dwell on it. He just wanted to see if Palace Master Xiao would confess to the Master.

More importantly, he was genuinely concerned about what major incident had occurred in the Qingmiao Domain.

So he arrived at the mouth of the alley and saw the Master leaning forward, close to Palace Master Xiao.

The Master’s posture resembled someone questioning something.

It seemed Palace Master Xiao had confessed to the Master, prompting a question about why a friend kept secrets.

Seeing the Master look over and smile slightly, Lu Jin’an raised his hand in salute: "Master, Aunt Ruo, we’re ready to continue our stroll."

Xiao Yinruo looked at Lu Jin’an’s calm expression, feeling a slight relief in her heart. Had this child given up his thoughts on her?

He probably wouldn’t reignite hope as Wanyu said.

Pei Wanyu nodded lightly: "Go ahead."

Knowing that Xiao Yinruo had indeed confessed to the Master, he didn’t linger and decided to ask the Master about the major incident in the Qingmiao Domain later.

After watching the good disciple leave, Pei Wanyu stepped back, expressionlessly watching Xiao Yinruo.

Feeling somewhat uneasy inside, Xiao Yinruo said softly: "I think you’re overthinking. He had the resolve to end this affection through you; what can a hug change?"

"You only understand universal love." Pei Wanyu chuckled: "But if that’s the case, it’s for the best, but..."

She stared into Xiao Yinruo’s peach blossom eyes, her voice intensifying: "You need to confirm whether he truly gave up his thoughts on you. If not... you handle this yourself!"

"Me, handle it?" Xiao Yinruo pointed at herself: "Can’t you just tell him?"

"The one who unties the bell must be the one who ties it." Pei Wanyu remained expressionless: "If you hadn’t hugged him, I could say something, but since you did, my words would be pointless.

I don’t want a rift to appear between our master-disciple relationship."

With that, Pei Wanyu stepped out of the alley.

Xiao Yinruo looked at her back, opened her mouth, and thought, isn’t it just a hug, is it that exaggerated?

She couldn’t see the fleeting smile on Pei Wanyu’s face.

"It’s just a hug, of course not that exaggerated, but I can make this hug exaggerated~"

Pei Wanyu chuckled softly, then raised her hand to cover her cheeks, suppressing the amusement inside.

"I need to restrain myself, I’m too indulgent with the good disciple right now, can’t just help him whenever I discover his feelings..."

She thought silently, and listening to the footsteps sounding behind her, she lowered her hands, restoring her usual smile.

"Are you still planning to ’empathize’?" Pei Wanyu softly asked.

"You’re not happy?" Xiao Yinruo said flatly: "Whether you’re happy or not, I’ll finish empathizing what’s necessary." freewebnoveℓ.com

She felt that if she didn’t continue ’empathizing’, it might instead make Wanyu feel guilty for having thoughts about Jin’an, the child.

"Hmm..." Pei Wanyu’s expression ’relaxed’, then looked in a direction: "But tonight, it’s probably not possible."

Xiao Yinruo nodded: "The actions of the Demon Clan’s Royal Court towards the Qingqiu Fox Clan are very sensitive, it’s just that..."

She frowned slightly: "Does your Wandao Sect just let them into the city like this?"

Pei Wanyu asked indifferently: "A bunch of clowns, what chaos can they stir?"

······

"Big brother, the Human Clan’s food is delicious."

In the private room of a tavern, a young man with horns on his head was eating heartily, his cheeks bulging as he said: "Do you think we can capture some chefs and bring them back... this beef is also tasty, try it, big brother.

If we could capture a few Human Clan chefs, we should have them make their meat too..."

Called "big brother", the other young man with horns on his head looked calmly at his brother Niu Zhongli: "If it’s good, eat more."

Saying this, he turned his head to look out the window, thinking that, let alone capturing chefs, even getting out of this city alive would be a problem.

Niu Shangli knew very well that the royal court’s decree was for them to come and throw away their lives.

Naturally, the royal court also understood that these demons from small clans couldn’t make big waves, so the order was simply to set fires.

The old clan leader of the Qingqiu Qiu Clan doted on this granddaughter the most, so as long as they set Jing’an City ablaze and let the Old Fox Saint see the Wandao Sect’s lack of attention, he would surely cancel the cooperation in anger.

This way, they could prevent closer ties between Qingqiu and the Human Clan.

And demons from small clans like them became the cannon fodder for executing this plan.

"Big brother." Niu Zhongli spoke with his mouth full of oil: "Why do I feel it was too easy for us to enter the city?"

Niu Shangli smiled: "The royal court erased the evidence of us crossing the Two Realms Pass easily. With clean backgrounds, entering the city was naturally easy."

"Oh, how do you think the royal court erased the traces? The Human Clan at the Two Realms Pass should have records too, right? Could there be a traitor among the Human Clan?" Niu Zhongli asked with a face full of excitement.
