Chapter 101: Identification
He told himself in his heart that as a man, he shouldn’t be afraid of two young women. But under their direct gaze, Su Yan ultimately chose to be cautious.
“Do whatever you want. I have no objections.”
His voice was soft and cute, his expression weak and submissive. Ling Ling was satisfied, and Xiao Wu was also satisfied.
Although they were both rivals, they were in agreement on certain aspects.
Loving you is one thing, pampering you is another, but when it comes to the imperial status in the family, that’s a whole other matter!
Su Yan had a feeling that if he hadn’t compromised just now, he would have been treated inhumanely, besieged by both of them at the same time.
Damn it! Is it so hard for a man to stand up?
Su Yan’s eyes were teary. But before he had the ability to resist, he could only temporarily be a coward.
Thinking this in his heart, he had thought he could stay out of it, but reality was cruel.
The battle between the two women was not over yet, and Su Yan was once again pulled onto the battlefield.
“Come, open your mouth.”
No way! He was already full! He wasn’t hungry at all!
Su Yan really wanted to say this, but he didn’t dare to open his mouth. He could only open his mouth tremblingly.
And so, you take a bite, I take a bite.
The breakfast for three was eaten by Su Yan alone.
After breakfast was over, Su Yan, with tears of bitterness in his eyes, walked heavily into his room.
As for why he was heavy, of course, it was because his belly had been gotten big!
Because he had eaten too much, he felt extremely uncomfortable. In the past, he had always been the one to get others’ bellies big. He never thought this day would come. Was this karma?
Su Yan didn’t remember how he got back to his room. He lay down on the bed, and when he woke up, it was already noon.
“Chiu chiu chiu.”
“What’s wrong with you? Are you feeling better?”
The little fox, who had been offline for a long time, jumped onto his bed and asked with great concern.
Although he couldn’t understand, he could feel the concern. Su Yan held the little fox in his arms and cried out in emotion.
“Sob, sob, sob… you’re still the best to me. You’re so small, you don’t throw tantrums for no reason. I can knead you when I want, rub you when I want, and kick you away when I want. I don’t have to worry about so much, and there are no troubles.”
Hearing Su Yan’s words, the little fox was completely bewildered. It could understand the first half, but what did the second half mean?
“Don’t worry about it. It means I’m praising you.”
Seeing the confusion in the little one’s eyes, Su Yan said as he rubbed its head.
“Chiu chiu chiu.”
“Hehehe, I’m not that good.”
Feeling the gentleness of his fingers on its head, plus his praise, the little fox’s face turned red with shyness. But fortunately, its fur hid it, and on the surface, there was no sign of anything unusual.
After venting a little, Su Yan’s mood improved a lot. Seeing that it was only noon and not yet time to sleep, he wanted to do something productive.
“I got a lot of herbs from the last adventure. Why don’t I improve my life skills?”
Although he had already obtained a huge sum of money, forty thousand spirit stones were enough for him to squander for several years. But how could he only spend without earning? He had to have a stable income.
“Robbing the rich to help the poor, doing sect missions to earn money… that’s what my senior sisters are good at. I can’t do it even if I want to.”
In this world, women were strong and men were weak. Women’s cultivation talent far surpassed men’s. Most of the high-end experts were women. This led to a fixed phenomenon: fighting and killing were their women’s business. Little men just had to stay in the rear. If a man killed monsters to earn money, he would be pointed at and gossiped about.
It was just like seeing a woman smoking in his previous life. Although he knew there was nothing wrong with it, most people would find it strange and would discuss it behind her back.
In this world, if a male cultivator wanted spirit stones, he either had to rely on the fixed salary issued by the sect or get a capable girlfriend and act cute to get her to give him money.
And some men with backbone, who didn’t want to rely on women and wanted to be self-reliant, could also learn skills like embroidery and needlework. Even in the cultivation world, these things had a market.
“I don’t have a girlfriend. Even if I do in the future, it’s not good to be a kept man, is it?”
They say if you eat someone’s food, you’re indebted to them. If he relied on his girlfriend to support him after marriage, wouldn’t his family status plummet?
Su Yan considered his strength to be not bad and that he could also do missions. But his looks were too high. What if he ran into a woman with ill intentions after leaving the sect?
A Foundation Establishment cultivation was still too weak in the cultivation world. He should just stay put.
In view of the above, Su Yan felt that he needed to have a skill. Alchemy was the best choice. This was an iron rice bowl that could feed him for a lifetime!
“Little fox, let’s go!”
As a novice in this area, Su Yan was not good at controlling the heat, and it was easy for the furnace to explode during alchemy. Of course, he couldn’t do it in his own room. That would easily lead to him sleeping on the street.
“Chiu chiu chiu?”
“You’re going to refine again?”
The little fox looked troubled. Others’ alchemy cost money, but your alchemy cost lives!
Those few times the furnace had exploded without warning had almost sent it to see its grandmother ahead of time!
“Little fox, let’s go! Don’t just stand there!”
Seeing the little fox not moving, Su Yan turned his head and urged it.
The young man stood by the door. The noon sunlight shone on him, casting a golden glow on his cheeks, making him look like a person from a painting.
“Chiu chiu chiu chiu!”
“I know!”
Can’t refuse! Absolutely can’t refuse!
The little fox sometimes even suspected that this young man was the real vixen.
Every frown and every smile made one’s heart flutter. The little fox felt that as long as he smiled lightly, even if there was a mountain of knives and a sea of fire ahead, it would go without hesitation.
…
Xiao Wu had a belly full of anger. She wasn’t angry that her junior sister was competing with her for their junior brother, but that she had a secret with him and wouldn’t tell her.
“I’ve known for a long time that my little junior sister has her eyes on my junior brother. I crush her in every aspect and don’t take her seriously at all. But what’s been going on recently?”
Thinking of Su Yan helping Ling Ling hide it, even remaining silent to confront her, Xiao Wu felt a burst of anger in her heart and wanted to string up her junior sister and whip her.
“Not learning good things at such a young age, but learning to snatch men? Isn’t pursuing the supreme Dao more appealing? She’s really disappointed me so much!”
Xiao Wu was heartbroken by her junior sister’s fall from grace. Her former junior sister had been single-mindedly devoted to the Dao, a pioneer of the Daoist altar, a model for the disciples. But look at her now…
“Forget it. I won’t bother with her. I still have proper business to attend to.”
The proper business Xiao Wu was talking about was, of course, the secret the two were hiding. What were her junior brother and junior sister hiding? She believed this crystal bottle could give her the answer.
At this thought, Xiao Wu took out a transparent bottle from her storage bag. A milky white liquid sloshed at the bottom of the bottle, looking very conspicuous.
…
“What? You’re saying this is a woman’s… that thing?!”
“That’s right.”
“Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”
“Absolutely not!”
The conversation ended there. Xiao Wu was speechless for a long time.
