I’ve Reloaded the Save File! [Transmigration] 26

26: Coming Clean

Yun He and Yun Yu stared at each other. After a moment of silence, Yun Yu coughed lightly. “Actually, I can explain this…”

Taking about the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, Yun Yu described the previous day’s events. “There were about eighty or ninety people present at the time. No more than twenty lost their lives. The rest were just seriously injured and will be fine after a few months of recuperation.”

“Eldest Senior Sister, you mean the Wang and Cheng families might have come in the latter half of the night and killed all those people?” Yun He asked.

“Drop the ‘might’,” Yun Yu said. “It should be that they had a plan long ago; we just acted a step faster than them.”

After speaking, Yun Yu couldn’t help but frown. In that case, weren’t she and Mo Xiao being used indirectly, becoming the Wang and Cheng families’ free muscle?

“Then what should we do, Eldest Senior Sister?” With Yun Yu here, Yun He didn’t want to think for herself anymore. “Do I need to go investigate the two families’ situations?”

“Since they plan to use you, they definitely won’t reveal anything about the Star Stone to you,” Yun Yu analyzed. “You continue to play along with the Wang and Cheng families. Junior Sister and I will investigate the Star Stone matter.”

“That works too. Anyway, this matter can’t be investigated to a conclusion in a short time,” Yun He nodded. It was fine as long as she didn’t have to feign civility to coax information out of them.

The place Yun He was staying was the Wang family’s territory, and someone was constantly watching nearby. After giving a few simple instructions, Yun Yu planned to leave.

“Wait, what’s Little Junior Sister’s cultivation level now? Peak of Foundation Establishment?” Yun He suddenly asked.

Yun Yu paused, looking at Yun He’s cultivation which was still at the early Golden Core stage, and fell into a long silence.

“What’s wrong? Is there a problem with Little Junior Sister’s cultivation?” Yun He asked nervously. “Did something go wrong when she was trying to break through?”

Yun Yu shook her head. “Little Junior Sister’s actual cultivation… is already about the same as yours.”

“Huh?” Yun He was stunned. “Eldest Senior Sister, you must be joking with me, right? Little Junior Sister has only cultivated for eight or nine years. How could she possibly be at the Golden Core stage, haha…”

Seeing the expression on Yun Yu’s face, Yun He’s control over her own expression completely failed, and her face fell. “Eldest Senior Sister, I suddenly feel so useless… Among Master’s disciples, I’m the most worthless one…”

“Cultivation level doesn’t represent everything. If you focus on cultivating, you should be at the mid-Golden Core stage,” Yun Yu patted Yun He’s shoulder, comforting her.

Yun Yu: “Don’t reveal Little Junior Sister’s cultivation to outsiders for now. Such talent will make many people green with envy.”

Yun He nodded. “After this matter is dealt with, I’m going back into seclusion. I won’t come out until I break through. I don’t want to be the one at the bottom.”

Yun Yu neither agreed nor disagreed. After leaving a “work hard,” her figure disappeared from the window.

After Yun Yu left to find Yun He, Zuo Wuyi slipped out of her room and skillfully climbed through the window into Mo Xiao’s room.

“Not resting?” Mo Xiao had noticed her when Zuo Wuyi opened the room door. Only after she came in did she stop cultivating.

“Not tired, don’t need to rest,” Zuo Wuyi said, taking a few steps forward and sitting directly beside Mo Xiao. “I want to sleep with you today.”

Mo Xiao raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t you just tell me that you’re not tired and don’t need to rest?”

“Is sleeping with you considered resting?” Zuo Wuyi retorted.

“…” It took Mo Xiao a moment to react, a slightly helpless expression appearing on her face. “Nonsense.”

“How am I being nonsensical? Aren’t we girlfriends?” Zuo Wuyi didn’t think there was anything wrong with what she said. “I just want to sleep with you, is that not allowed?”

“You can sleep in the same bed with me, but nothing else for now,” Mo Xiao said. Not to mention when Yun Yu would be back, the place and time were also not right.

“Alright, but this time I want to sleep on the inside,” Now that they had a proper status, Zuo Wuyi didn’t have to worry about Mo Xiao running away in the middle of the night.

“As you like,” Mo Xiao didn’t mind.

Although it was not convenient to do anything intimate right now, after lying down on the bed, Zuo Wuyi directly hugged Mo Xiao’s waist and squeezed into her arms.

Mo Xiao gently patted Zuo Wuyi’s head, signaling her to be a little more well-behaved.

“Mo Xiao, do you think we will live here forever?” Zuo Wuyi buried her head in the crook of Mo Xiao’s neck, her voice sounding a little muffled.

“I’m not sure if it will be forever, but we will definitely be living here for a few hundred years,” Mo Xiao said. If there were no accidents, it should take about a hundred years from now until she ascended.

If before that, the matter between Zuo Wuyi and Xuan Min was not resolved, and neither of them showed any signs of ascending, then she would have to suppress her own cultivation and wait until Zuo Wuyi could ascend with her, and then leave this place together.

“After a few hundred years, will you suddenly find me annoying and leave me for someone else?” Zuo Wuyi asked. “After all, here, as long as your cultivation is high enough, whether it’s a man or a woman, as long as you beckon, there will be plenty of people willing.”

“I’m not that kind of person,” Mo Xiao didn’t quite understand why Zuo Wuyi would worry about something that was fundamentally impossible to happen. “Besides, weren’t you much more annoying at the beginning than you are now? I didn’t abandon you back then, did I?”

“Aha! Mo Xiao, so you do find me annoying. Are you already getting impatient with me?” Zuo Wuyi caught the loophole in Mo Xiao’s words. “And what do you mean by not as annoying as before? Was I very annoying before?”

“Hm?” Mo Xiao was stunned for a moment. “When did I say you were annoying before?”

“Wasn’t that what you just said? You said I was more annoying at the beginning than I am now,” Zuo Wuyi looked up at Mo Xiao with a dissatisfied expression.

“I…” Mo Xiao really wanted to say that she was just stating a fact, but seeing the dissatisfied expression on Zuo Wuyi’s face, she could only use what little emotional intelligence she had left and rephrased it. “I used the wrong example. I liked the immature you before, and I like the improved you now even more?”

“Saying you like me with your mouth is too superficial. I hope you have feelings for me,” Zuo Wuyi said, looking at Mo Xiao with anticipation.

Mo Xiao hesitated for a moment, then lowered her head and gave Zuo Wuyi a kiss. “Like this?”

“Not enough,” Zuo Wuyi was not satisfied.

Mo Xiao hesitated for a moment, then cast a barrier around her room, then directly pinched Zuo Wuyi’s chin and gave her a deep kiss.

Zuo Wuyi did not resist. She just liked to break Mo Xiao’s serious demeanor, to see her show a different side in front of her.

After the kiss, Zuo Wuyi’s breathing was a little chaotic. She licked her lips, then contentedly buried her head back.

Alright, time to sleep. The next time the two of them went out for training alone, she would definitely take Mo Xiao down!

Mo Xiao slowly let out a breath, her Adam’s apple bobbing, and then slowly closed her eyes. Zuo Wuyi, she really knows how to flirt.

The next day, as soon as Yun Yu opened her door, she saw her two junior sisters walking downstairs hand in hand, looking very energetic.

“Eldest Senior Sister, good morning,” Zuo Wuyi greeted with a smile.

“Good morning,” Yun Yu hadn’t realized anything was wrong at this point. She went downstairs with them and casually mentioned the matter of the Wang and Cheng families.

When Zuo Wuyi heard that she had been used, a dissatisfied expression immediately appeared on her face. “So we were both free muscle and scapegoats? That’s too miserable.”

“Eldest Senior Sister, what do you think? Should we just sneak into the Cheng and Wang families?” Zuo Wuyi asked.

Yun Yu shook her head. “With the Hu family as a precedent, the Cheng and Wang families will definitely be on guard against us. And Yun He was nominally invited by them. If they ask Yun He to deal with us, then things will be a bit difficult to handle.”

As she spoke, Yun Yu’s gaze couldn’t help but shift downwards, to the hands they were holding under the table.

Have the bonds between sect sisters become so intimate? Do they have to hold hands like this even when discussing matters?

Or is there something fishy going on between my junior sister and little junior sister? No, my two junior sisters have just finished their respective seclusions. They probably haven’t seen each other for a long time, so that’s why they’re so clingy for a while.

“Eldest Senior Sister, I have an idea. Since they’ve thrown the blame on us, we can…” Zuo Wuyi quickly came up with a plan.

Hearing Zuo Wuyi’s plan, Yun Yu’s eyes lit up. “That’s a good idea. I’ll go and disguise myself now, and then…”

On the other side, after hearing that the news had spread, the family heads of the Cheng and Wang families were in a very good mood. They each summoned their confidants and sent them to the Hu family’s warehouse to take stock of how many good things were still inside.

“Brother Wang, this time, even the heavens are helping us. Before long, we can justifiably take over the Hu family,” the Cheng family head was very happy and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Indeed, I didn’t expect the Hu family’s enemies to show up so coincidentally. As long as we move quickly, even if Hu Da and his wife return safely, the Hu family’s possessions will already be in our hands,” a smile also appeared on the Wang family head’s face, slightly dispelling the gloomy aura about him.

“Since we’ve done it, we should eliminate all future troubles. In a few days, I’ll send people to keep an eye on the vicinity. If there’s any news of them, we’ll… on the road,” the Wang family head didn’t finish his sentence, but conveyed his meaning to the Cheng family head with his eyes.

“Brother Wang is right. I was thinking the same thing,” The two of them were of the same mind.

Just as they were discussing how to divide the Hu family’s assets, a hurried knock on the door was heard. “Family Head, a cultivator claiming to be a friend of the Hu family head has come to visit, saying he wants to see the Hu family’s young master.”

“A friend?” The smile on the Wang family head’s face disappeared. “What’s the other party’s cultivation level? How many people are there?”

“One is a little girl at the Foundation Establishment stage, and there are two young-looking male cultivators. I can’t probe their cultivation. They should be Golden Core stage cultivators,” the subordinate reported from outside the door.

“Alright, I know. Let them in first. Don’t let too many people know they’re here,” the Cheng family head ordered.

The subordinate outside the door hesitated for a moment and said, “Family Head, it seems they asked their way here. Many curious cultivators are following behind them…”
