"Sister?"
"Did you just ask to call Yu Youhan 'sister'?!"
Ji Hongxiu snapped back to reality, her pretty face full of anger, ready to thoroughly reprimand this guy.
But when she turned her head, she saw Chen Mo with his eyes tightly shut, his whole body hot as if on fire, muttering incoherently: "This humble servant is truly loyal to the Daoist Venerable; if the Empress wants to kill her, then kill first..."
Ji Hongxiu's actions paused.
She imdiately furrowed her brow, her expression sowhat suspicious.
This guy wouldn't be putting on a performance, would he?
A flash of divine light passed through her eyes as she looked at Chen Mo, her gaze penetrating his skin, clearly seeing that crimson energy constantly destroying and restructuring his body.
With each reconstruction, new veins ford, yet it didn't look strange at all. His root bone appeared naturally ford, as if it was ant to be this way.
In the spirit platform, the divine soul flickered uncertainly.
It seed he had suddenly received a lot of information, unable to digest it all at once.
In such a state, the divine soul hadn't collapsed, indicating he had a solid foundation, but staying clear-headed was almost impossible.
"Hmph, at least you have so conscience." Ji Hongxiu's expression softened slightly.
Daring to speak for her in front of Yu Youhan, even threatening with death; it seed he really cared about her...
Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
But soon, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Chen Mo's hands crept upward from his waist, mumbling, "Strange, Zhi'er, why have you lost so much weight recently?"
Ji Hongxiu: ?
"Don't worry, I'll handle things with your master, even if you can't be master and disciple, you can still be sisters..." Chen Mo mumbled to himself, "By then, if we have a baby, they can keep each other company. In case the Daoist Venerable runs out of milk, you'll need to help out more..."
Ji Hongxiu: ???
Her eyebrows twitched madly as she looked down.
Clearly, the scale is quite adequate; how could there possibly be a shortage? Besides, who said she was going to have his babies?!
Ling Ningzhi had always been a heavy burden on her heart.
As a master who was supposed to guide and teach, she failed to set an example and instead competed with her disciple for a man; saying it out loud was simply disgraceful... This overwhelming guilt left her unsure of how to face Ling Ningzhi.
But this guy, not only thinking of master and disciple sharing, even wanted Qingxuan to help her nurse the baby?!
It was downright ridiculous!
Ji Hongxiu was both embarrassed and annoyed, but hitting or scolding wasn't an option now, so she could only twist Chen Mo's waist several tis to vent her frustration.
At this mont, an idea suddenly ca to her. After confirming the other personality was asleep, she cleared her throat and asked, "Chen Mo, tell , who do you prefer, or the Yin God?"
Chen Mo seed not to hear clearly and remained silent.
Ji Hongxiu activated her soul power and asked again, finally getting a response.
"...Hong Xiu's personality is a bit unpredictable, but she's straightforward, bold in love and hate, and it's easy to be with her... Bai Xiu, on the other hand, always feels cold, and being with her can be a bit stressful..." Chen Mo said softly.
Ji Hongxiu's gaze dimd slightly, and her nose inexplicably tingled.
This answer was actually within her expectations.
Her nature was indifferent, with extrely low material desires; her character was cold and uninteresting, with no hobbies beyond cultivation. Even the Yin God often mocked her as an "ice sculpture," without a trace of human warmth.
After confirming her feelings originally, she still didn't dare to face her true heart. Even when the karmic fire erupted, she refused to seek out Chen Mo, stubbornly holding out alone.
If the Yin God hadn't taken matters into her own hands, joining with Chen Mo while she was asleep, she would probably still be suppressing her feelings, never acknowledging their relationship.
"Maybe letting the Yin God take over as the main personality wouldn't be so bad? I could just quietly watch." The thought suddenly popped into Ji Hongxiu's mind. "This way, Chen Mo would probably be quite happy, right?"
"However..."
Unaware of her thoughts, Chen Mo continued, "Hong Xiu is desire-driven, acting without concerns, but Bai Xiu has so many burdens. Despite that, she still wants to stay with , and that sentint is incredibly precious."
"I like both of them, but if I had to choose one, I'd probably pick Bai Xiu."
Ji Hongxiu's heart trembled, turning her head away and biting her lip, "I don't need your pity!"
"It's not pity." Chen Mo frowned, sowhat dissatisfied, and ruffled her hair. "Even though Bai Xiu doesn't say it, she's always silently helping , whether it's divine skills, her storage ring, or sacrificing herself to save in the Dao Domain..."
"Sotis, though clearly shy, she pretends to be cold, which is especially cute..."
"Actually, it's not her who needs , but I can't do without her now."
⁄(⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)⁄?
Ji Hongxiu froze.
Then a blush spread across her cheeks, spreading down to her collarbones, all tinged with a soft red.
Thump-thump, thump-thump—
Her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, almost jumping out of her chest!
Although they were already as close as husband and wife, everything felt like a predetermined fate, leaving an inexplicable void in her heart.
Until this mont, those unconscious murmurs reached her ears, lacking deliberate tenderness or carefully crafted words of affection, yet seeming to pour into her heart like a warm spring, spreading over barren lands. In the dried cracks, sothing seed to be taking root and sprouting.
There were people in this world who liked her, cherished her, even thought her awkward deanor was cute...
This was a feeling she had never experienced before.
"Even unconscious, his words are so cheesy, no wonder Qingxuan fell so deeply." Ji Hongxiu glanced at Chen Mo, her eyes filled with gentle emotions.
