Volume 2 Chapter 34 / Chapter 121: Senior Brother, Attack!
Two days later—
In the afternoon, Feng Yudie sat in Xiao Yunluo's bedroom in front of the dressing table, letting Xiao Yunluo work on her face and hair.
"Senior Sister Xiao, make me look a bit haggard, don't let anyone see through it."
"I know!"
Xiao Yunluo was helpless, using the back of her hand to pick up a pale-colored makeup powder, and gently applied it to Feng Yudie's cheeks with a brush.
Under Xiao Yunluo's makeup skills, Feng Yudie soon appeared as if she had been hollowed out, looking haggard as if she had been seriously ill for many years.
With sunken eye sockets and prominent cheekbones, she looked as if she had been plagued by a serious illness for many years.
Feng Yudie picked up the bronze mirror, turned her head left and right, and quickly praised, "Senior Sister Xiao, you're really amazing..."
"What's so amazing about this? It's just a makeup technique for a haggard look, using some black and white makeup powder on the face." Xiao Yunluo put down the powder brush and asked, "Why do you want me to make you look like this?"
"Hehe~ this is called a deceitful tactic!"
"Deceitful tactic?"
Feng Yudie rubbed her nose and explained with a borrowed knife, "Didn't I help you eat the ghost soul the day before yesterday? It's been two days already, I should look very haggard. When I go to pick up Junior Sister Li later, if the demonic cultivator sees me like this, she will think her ghost soul is still attached to me. After we fight later, she won't pay attention to me, and I can sneak attack her, hehe~"
Xiao Yunluo frowned, understanding her meaning, and asked, "Did Ye Anping ask you to do this?"
"Huh?"
"How did you pay attention to such details?" Xiao Yunluo rolled her eyes, laughed with her hands on her hips, "It must be Ye Anping reminding you."
"..."
Feng Yudie blinked. Was she really that silly in Xiao Yunluo's eyes? For this kind of thing, she should have…
Alright, she didn't expect it, but Xiaotian reminded her.
— [Yudie, before you go find that Li girl, make sure to go to Xiao girl to help her do your makeup]
— "Huh? Makeup? Why?"
— [If that girl called Wu Yue saw you acting like nothing happened after being affected by the ghost soul. She will definitely be suspicious of what you did, and she will be on guard. After all, she is a demonic cultivator in the Core Formation stage. If you can't surprise her and launch a sneak attack, it will be troublesome]
Feng Yudie didn't say much, just shrugged, stood up, and checked her storage bag.
"Pill... talismans... hmm, all ready. Senior Sister Xiao, be careful while I'm away, don't let other demonic cultivators take advantage of you."
"I know!"
Xiao Yunluo frowned, then made a sword gesture with her hand, took out a bottle of pills from her storage bag, and handed it over.
"Here."
"What kind of pills is this?" Feng Yudie wrinkled her nose, took it and opened the bottle, then looked at it, "It's black and smells awful."
"Startle Soul Pill, a kind of pill that is especially effective for the souls of demonic cultivators. I bought it outside the Chi Dragon Mansion before. It's quite expensive."
"How much?"
"I bought two hundred pills for a total of ten thousand spirit stones, and here are twenty pills."
"Fifty spirit stones per pill?!" Feng Yudie widened her eyes, looking at the pills in disbelief, "This price can buy a top-grade Gathering Spirit Pill. Why are these pills so expensive?"
"Usually, not many people buy it, and these pills are hard to preserve." Xiao Yunluo shrugged and said, "But it is indeed quite dark. I remember in the Profound Star Sect's pill room, you could buy a bottle of these pills for fifty spirit stones."
"Ugh— those profiteers..."
Feng Yudie pursed her lips, put the pills into her storage bag, and then arched her hand:
"Then I'll go now. Senior Sister Xiao, see you tonight."
"Be... careful."
"Hehe~ Senior Sister Xiao, you care about me~~"
Xiao Yunluo gave her a glance, crossed her arms, and turned her head away:
"I want to tell you to tell Ye Anping to be careful. Who would care about you? Hmph!"
"Hehe~"
Feng Yudie smiled ambiguously, didn't say much, and pushed open the door with her sword, heading towards Li Qianjin's residence.
Walking along the paths within the Chi Dragon Mansion for a while, passing through three small courtyards, Feng Yudie arrived at the attic where Li Qianjin lived.
She had the maid guarding the door go in to announce her, and soon Li Qianjin came out in a dark robe.
Wu Yue also followed beside her.
Wu Yue walked up to Feng Yudie, took a glance at her complexion, and couldn't help but smirk slightly, kindly asking, "Miss Feng, why do you look so bad?"
"Oh—" Feng Yudie instantly acted, covering her mouth and coughing twice, weakly replying, "Cough cough— Seems like I've caught the summer heat, didn't sleep well the day before yesterday and yesterday, feeling dizzy."
Hearing this, Li Qianjin's expression changed, quickly asking, "Then, Senior Sister Feng, why don't you go back to rest? I'll have the mansion's doctor come and check on you."
"Cough cough— It's okay, my junior brother doesn't know you, I can't skip going. " Feng Yudie quickly took a deep breath, stepped forward and hugged Li Qianjin's waist, then summoned her flying sword and stepped onto it.
"Junior Sister Li, I'll hold you while flying, is that okay?"
"Oh— Senior Sister Feng, your voice sounds hoarse. I can let Wu Yue..."
"It's okay, I'll hold you." Feng Yudie grinned, saying, "Holding a beauty like you, maybe I'll feel better later."
"..."
Li Qianjin was unsure how to respond to her words, but she didn't say anything, gently agreeing, and then allowed Feng Yudie to princess-carry her as they flew off.
"Wu Yue, follow us."
"Yes, Miss."
Wu Yue bowed and then summoned her own flying sword, stepping onto it.
The three of them, two swords, soared into the sky, heading straight for Sanhe Lake outside Du Chun City. Xiaotian quickly emerged from Feng Yudie's soul realm and sat on her shoulder, silently keeping a close eye on Wu Yue to prevent her from harming Feng Yudie while flying on the sword.
After about two quarters of an hour of flying, the three landed by the calm lakeside.
Li Qianjin seemed to rarely visit the woods. After stepping down from Feng Yudie's arms, she couldn't help but nervously grab onto her sleeve.
"Senior Sister Feng, are we there?"
"In the pavilion ahead. My junior brother is waiting there."
"I see..."
Li Qianjin pursed her lips, nodded slowly, and then, with Feng Yudie's support, walked slowly to a lakeside pavilion not far ahead.
Ye Anping was sitting alone in the pavilion. When he saw Feng Yudie and the others approaching, he stood up with a smile and greeted them with a bow.
"Young Mistress Li, I'm Ye Anping. Please come into the pavilion for a chat."
Hearing the youthful voice, Li Qianjin was a bit surprised. She had imagined a mature man before, but she immediately returned the greeting with a bow.
"Senior Ye, you're too polite."
As they exchanged these words, Feng Yudie, standing next to Wu Yue, desperately signaled to Ye Anping: Can I attack? When should I attack? Now?
Seeing her haggard appearance, Ye Anping was momentarily puzzled as to why she was made up like this, but after some thought, he immediately speculated and realized that she and Wu Yue must have already clashed.
Quite clever... Ye Anping sighed lightly, shaking his head slightly: Wait a minute!
Feng Yudie blinked in response: Got it!
After Wu Yue and Li Qianjin entered the pavilion, Ye Anping took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Li Qianjin and then said, "Young Mistress Li, I won't beat around the bush."
"Yes, Senior Ye, please speak. What is the purpose of inviting me here?"
"Just simply to invite you for a cup of tea."
Upon hearing this, Li Qianjin was momentarily stunned and tilted her head slightly, saying, "Drink tea? But— Senior Sister Feng said you—"
"Young Mistress Li, forgive me for being rude."
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Anping reached out, reached across the stone table in front of him, grabbed her shoulder, and forcefully pulled her up from the stone bench, shouting, "Attack!"
Almost the moment he spoke, Feng Yudie had already grasped her spirit sword and approached Wu Yue's side.
"I've been waiting for this moment!!"
Because Wu Yue had not anticipated such an event at all, she didn't react in time.
"What?!"
But it was just a moment.
Whoosh—
A fierce wind of swords rose in the pavilion, like an evil dragon raising its head!
