Lemme See What Else

Claim to be an orphan's family!

It was a foolproof plan. After all, the little girl is only a toddler. Even if she does not play along or denies the claim, how convincing would her words be? Who would listen to her?

Proof? Evidence? Ming Yue Sect could produce hard evidence in a blink of an eye to show that Yin is a daughter of a sect disciple sent on a faraway mission. Who would dare question? Who would dare investigate the truth?

Even if the Ye Clan wants, they would dare not. After all, the current Ye Sect is in a very delicate situation right now. If Ye Clan offends the Ming Yue Sect, it would be easy to see the future of the once-hegemon of the Leaf City.

The two Great Elders of Ming Yue Sect could be said to be playing dirty, but who among those who have lived for so long not a cunning, old fox? Both Zhu Wei and Yan Yu refused to believe that Ye Mo would send such a precious "gift" to their footsteps without someone behind him egging him on.

This is an Absolute Yin Body!

An Absolute Yin Body!

What we are talking about is not just any Spiritual Body, but one of the rarest and most powerful bodies to ever appear in history! No matter how serious her injury is, this little girl was still someone that any sect or school would flock over to bring her back to be cultivated.

Now that Ye Mo brought her over to them, they would fight to the last bite before they would give her back.

No return, no exchange!

Eh...

Yin blinked, letting out a long, long breath to readjust her mentality.

"Ptooey! So I was not kidnapped..." she inwardly sighed. "And here I was planning a grand escape and a tearjerking reunion with Elder Sis and everyone."

After stretching out her consciousness, there was no headache, but her ears kinda feel dirty after eavesdropping on those greedy withered fogeys from the moment they stepped outside the room where she first woke up until they reached the hot springs.

She was currently soaking like a queen, oh-so-comfortably inside a natural hot spring, just as she ordered, erm, politely requested a while ago. Of course, she needs to get naked to bathe and threw out all males out of sight.

So what if he's a Patriarch? Who? Great Elder? Stay outside and wait! A lady is bathing. Cultivate your patience!

As soon as the herb-soaked bandage was removed, Yin's sense of touch and her movement returned, though she had to pretend that she couldn't move well to dispel any suspicion from the bad guys. She was also correct to say that the walls of the room where she woke up had a function of keeping divine sense blocked.

It was more a prison than a healing room. No windows, gray walls, itchy bed. What poor guest relations services! If this was a hotel, she would give them a 1-star review!

Not like in the Ye Clan, Bro Hua was meticulous in providing the best for Yin. Elder Sis Xuan'er even checked and doubled-checked whether she wanted to stay alone in the room, or if she wants to stay together with the couple in their king-sized bed in their courtyard.

But luh, those two were newly-weds. Yin might be in a kid body and this might be her first reincarnation, but she liked to mess around with the souls and the Yama Kings in the Yellow Springs so she had long known what happens inside a room shared by a couple.

Of course, Yin refused with a big, "I ain't gonna join the fun!" to which she received a helpless "Y-You!" from her near-legendary-boobed Elder Sis. Well, to each his own interpretation.

But see the difference! Bro Hua loved her best! Yin was offered a large, well-ventilated room in the second floor of Old Fogey Mo's mansion, a room overlooking the entirety of Leaf City. There's even an extra pudding in the side table. Even though it was not enough and she still snuck out of the old fogey's radar to eat more in the kitchen, the thought still counts.

That's what you call hospitality!

"Young Lady, soaking in the water for too long is bad for your health," a maid approached her, ready to pick her up.

"Eh. How about no."

"Young Lady..."

"Hot water keeps my body warm, you know? Isn't the problem caused by the coldness of my body?"

"Yes, but the Patriarch..."

"Look here, missy. I'm your Patriarch's granddaughter. What I say, he gives. I'm the boss's boss. I call the shots," Yin sweetly smiled at her. "Listen to me, okay?"

The maid frowned, dropping all pretenses. "Brat, I say get out now! Don't give me an excuse to forcefully pull you out. I'll tell the Patriarch that you're being a mischievous child and make him punish you!"

"Yeah?"

"I'll call in the male guards outside to pull you out. Do you think I won't dare?"

From the fluctuations in her body, it was obvious that this serving maid was no mortal but a cultivator. Maybe she's not even a maid in the first place, but someone assigned to deal with Yin's special case.

Though she was not as strong as the withered fogies scheming outside, at the very least, with her level of cultivation, she would not normally instantly freeze upon touching someone with an Absolute Yin Body who was treated with fire-attributed medicine.

Well, 'normally' being the keyword.

The legendary Yin of the Ice Age had awakened. Though she had to control the use of her spirit for the sake of not overtaxing her new body, she could easily squash ants with a snort.

But eh, snorts are unladylike.

She made a small, casual gesture with her finger. "You're a bit too nasty towards a kid, you know? If I weren't sure this is the first time we've met, I would've thought I killed your parents by the way you're acting."

"You're just a mortal and you're already the Sai.... What are you—"

This small gesture caused the yin qi in the maid's body to erupt, causing chaos in her body that made her vomit blood and pass out. The maid is a female, of course she has innate yin qi in her body. Taking her out is easy-peasy for Yin, the great, great, great ancestor of all yin in the multiverse.

Yin quickly swept her divine sense around, and it seemed like the three withered fogeys outside dare not shamelessly monitor a bathing little girl with their own divine senses, so they had no idea what happened yet.

"This place is full of bad people. What are they cultivating here? Bad attitude? It needs some cleaning... but eh, that's too troublesome." She stretched her divine sense farther. "Ooh, there's some good stuff in their sect treasury. Better take some before I leave with Old Fogey Mo. Lemme see what else..."
