In Flying Feather Stream, bright sunlight poured down.
The water’s surface shimmered and sparkled. Occasionally, fish would leap out, splashing up bursts of crystalline water.
With the sound of babbling water in their ears, two figures in the pool were holding wooden harpoons, searching for fish.
“Senior Brother, quick, look near your feet! A big, fat fish just swam by.”
“Whoosh!”
As the harpoon entered the water, that fat fish dodged at an unbelievable speed.
Deng Tianyu frowned and swung his harpoon again.
“Whoosh!”
The fat fish dodged once more, flicking its tail and fleeing in panic.
“Giggle~ Senior Brother, you’re so clumsy! You couldn’t even spear this fish.”
Seeing this scene, Li Shishi laughed so hard she nearly doubled over.
Deng Tianyu rolled his eyes. “Here, the harpoon’s yours. You do it!”
He hadn’t used his True Essence, nor had he expanded his perception. Although this fish was plump, it was extremely agile; it wasn’t strange that it dodged.
Furthermore, this pool varied in depth—sometimes deep here, sometimes shallow there—which could also affect accuracy!
Just like a flat road surface: when it doesn’t rain, you don’t feel anything, but once it rains and turns muddy and slippery, one easily slips.
“I’ll do it, then!”
Li Shishi snorted lightly, took the harpoon, her beautiful eyes shifting as she carefully searched for a target.
Suddenly, she spotted a plump fish similar to the one before. Her expression focused, and the harpoon in her hand shot out with lightning speed.
“Whoosh!”
A muffled sound echoed as water splashed. The fish was not speared.
Li Shishi’s flawless, jade-white foot even stepped on a wet, slippery stone in the water, causing her to topple directly onto Deng Tianyu.
“Plop!”
Deng Tianyu caught Li Shishi, but caught off-guard, he also fell backward.
For a moment, more crystalline water splashed, and ripples endlessly spread across the water’s surface.
“Shishi, did you do that on purpose?”
Deng Tianyu, now completely soaked, twitched the corner of his mouth.
He suspected Li Shishi had targeted him intentionally, but he had no proof.
“Senior Brother, what are you talking about?”
“How could I have done it on purpose?”
“My clothes are soaked too…”
Nestling in her Senior Brother’s arms, Li Shishi’s right eye—the Red Lotus one—flashed with a hint of cunning.
Deng Tianyu sighed. “Let’s get up first. We’ll change clothes in a moment.”
At this moment, their faces were just inches apart. Their breath mingled, falling upon each other’s faces, the atmosphere slightly ambiguous.
Gazing at her Senior Brother’s handsome face, Mu Wanzhi recalled the embrace and kiss from that night. Her snow-smooth, slender jade arms had somehow wound around Deng Tianyu’s neck, and her alluring, moist thin lips instinctively pressed forward.
Before Deng Tianyu could react, he found himself unable to speak.
Instinctively, he wanted to push Li Shishi away, but then he remembered the purpose of their outing today: to resolve that strand of obsession she had regarding feelings between men and women.
If he pushed her away, his Junior Sister might very well fail to find resolution, and that attachment could transform into a Devil’s Obstruction. That would be troublesome.
As if knowing what Deng Tianyu was thinking, Li Shishi’s beautiful eyes rippled with a hint of allure, merely clumsily kissing him back.
Her tender, pink little tongue timidly ventured past her red lips. Upon touching Senior Brother’s tongue, it seemed to retreat in panic, darting back and forth.
With a soft moan, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, only to begin the next round of explorations soon after.
Currently, the ripples on the water surface had calmed, but the ripples in her heart were endlessly surging and spreading.
Perhaps due to the overlapping sensations, beneath the water’s surface, her flawless, jade-like feet were tightly arched, reflecting their owner’s current feelings.
Time quietly slipped away. After who knows how long, their lips parted!
Having kissed her Senior Brother for the first time, Li Shishi’s expression was dazed. Her entire body felt weak as she collapsed in his arms.
“So this is what kissing feels like!”
Muddled and dazed, like a fish that had entered the water, there was a free and unrestrained sense of comfort that made her addicted.
“Haaah…”
Deng Tianyu let out a long breath. He looked at the jade beauty in his arms with a complicated expression but only gently lifted her up and walked towards the shore.
Li Shishi buried her face against his shoulder and asked uneasily, “Senior Brother, you’re not mad, are you?”
“No.” Deng Tianyu shook his head.
Last time, when this girl had been dreaming of drinking water, they’d already accidentally kissed once. What difference did once or twice make?
Li Shishi’s face immediately lit up with a smile. “Senior Brother is the best!”
She had been startled by Mu Wanzhi’s action just now. After all, being so direct could very likely have caused Senior Brother’s aversion.
Luckily, Senior Brother was far too doting and tolerant towards her, so he hadn’t gotten angry.
Deng Tianyu placed her on the shore and gently tapped her head. “Did you do that on purpose, knowing how tolerant I am of you?”
It was on purpose, and not the first time!
Mu Wanzhi thought secretly to herself, still feeling a lingering sense of unfulfilled desire for some reason.
She thought this, but didn’t say it aloud. Instead, biting her lip, she helped Li Shishi explain softly, “It’s just because I remembered what was written in those books. I felt yearning… so I…”
Deng Tianyu gave her a helpless look, not exposing her little scheme. He merely changed the subject. “You’re soaked through. Change into a new set of clothes!”
“Mhm!” The latter responded, revealing a sweet smile, and walked into the Dharma Boat.
“Phew…”
As soon as she entered, Li Shishi let out a sigh of relief. “That was close. Luckily, we managed to act cute and slip by!”
Mu Wanzhi smiled. “Sometimes, you have to be bold and try things out. Otherwise, you’ll never get to experience another beautiful landscape!”
“Mhm, makes sense!” Li Shishi nodded emphatically, also revealing a charming smile.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and asked, somewhat puzzled, “Just now, why did I feel like you, Wanzhi, were different from me?”
Mu Wanzhi didn’t know what she was referring to. “Different how?”
Li Shishi frowned. “You used your tongue!”
Earlier, she felt her whole being was dizzy. Coupled with the overlapping sensations, she couldn’t focus on anything else. It was at that moment that Mu Wanzhi stepped in to assist!
Now thinking back, it always felt a bit off.
Mu Wanzhi said, “My mind was also a blank. I just made that move inexplicably, that’s all!”
As she said this, she recalled the previous time she had kissed Deng Tianyu under the guise of dreaming, but she didn’t mention it.
Li Shishi was still somewhat suspicious. “Is that really how it was?”
Mu Wanzhi countered, “Otherwise?”
“Maybe I was overthinking it!”
Li Shishi shook her head, expelling those superfluous thoughts.
She and Mu Wanzhi were One Body, Two Souls. Their progress in winning over Senior Brother was also the same. As for secretly sneaking ahead… that kind of thing shouldn’t be possible.
Shortly after, Li Shishi changed into a vermillion-red, mist-like long dress. She coiled up her long hair and secured it with a Golden Hairpin, then looked into the bronze mirror.
In the reflection, the dress’s front bodice was stretched taut by her full, ample contours. Following down the waist, her curvaceous figure was perfectly highlighted, incredibly alluring and beautiful.
Mu Wanzhi smiled softly, instantly giving off a stunning impression as if a hundred flowers had bloomed simultaneously.
Just now, it had been Li Shishi taking the lead, with her assisting.
Now, it was her turn to take the lead, with Li Shishi assisting.
In other words, it was now her round…
