That "good sister" seems even more distant.
Seeing him about to leave, Yin Weiyin pressed her lips together and persistently hinted, "Husband, when will you... when will we practice the cultivation technique?"
The cultivation technique she referred to was the "Void-Calling Phoenix Art," a Golden Boy and Jade Girl Dual Cultivation thod passed down from Taihua Mountain. Chen Yi was not forgetful and had once agreed to this matter. What she implied now went beyond just practicing the cultivation technique. She was asking when they would return to how things were before, and when he would acknowledge her as his wife again... Chen Yi always knew the significance.
Chen Yi scoffed and said casually, "Are you in such a hurry?"
The words of advice stopped in Yin Weiyin's throat as she understood his aning from his tone.
"I have my plans; you don't need to remind ." After saying this, Chen Yi walked away briskly.
Yin Weiyin was montarily crestfallen.
Chen Yi paid no mind; the foolishness in Great Yin wasn't new, and a bit of indulgence would only lead to escalating demands. Although he wanted to return to their previous intimacy, he couldn't let her off easily; who knows what troubles she might cause later.
Moreover, since his body had almost recovered, it was ti to prepare for the journey to the Divine Sect. It wouldn't be wise to add complications along the way.
Tonight, within the small courtyard, Chen Yi only revealed his softer side to Yin Tingxue.
"About Lu Ying's matter; it's both difficult and easy. On one hand, I don't want her to continue like this, and on the other hand, I want her to be willing herself." Chen Yi's words were sowhat vague.
However, Yin Tingxue understood his aning. Chen Yi didn't want Lu Ying to continue forgetting about the world and oneself under Zhou Yitang's Sword Dao. He hoped that Lu Ying, as the Senior Sister, would choose to follow his Sword Dao willingly, rather than being forced.
"It's better if Senior Sister Lu chooses willingly. You don't need to worry." Yin Tingxue carefully prevented Chen Yi from going off track, offering her assurance. She suddenly thought of sothing else, "Oh, you need to discuss things with Master Zhou."
Chen Yi didn't think Zhou Yitang would agree with his idea, at most she would not interfere. He indifferently said, "Discussing won't change anything; her sword is within my realm."
Yin Tingxue didn't fully understand the aning in his words, nor the entanglent between their Sword Dao, but she heard the lingering discord between them from his tone.
She always disliked seeing them clash with swords, and when they were at odds, she feared the most. Seeing that Chen Yi was soft-hearted tonight and easy to talk to, she thought it better to advise him.
"When will the cycle end if you repay grievance with grievance... Imagine if one day Master Zhou lets you hold with one hand?"
"If I'm holding it with one hand, then what?"
"You..."
Chen Yi was montarily stunned, then poked her nose with a playful tone:
"Well, you little fox, now you're talking dirty."
Yin Tingxue's cheeks reddened, and though it couldn't be seen in the night, she touched her nose, muttering softly, "It's all... because of you."
Chen Yi often spoke lewdly, whether it was in bed or in daily life. Yin Tingxue didn't like hearing those words, yet she imdiately understood and occasionally accidentally echoed them.
He had corrupted her.
Chen Yi didn't use it as an excuse to bully her; instead, he leaned forward and kissed her forehead, softly saying, "Right, right, bla , bla ."
"Hmm..." Seeing his attitude, Yin Tingxue thought for a mont and softly said, "It's not entirely your fault; I'm careless too... Let's not talk about this. You still need to get along well with Master Zhou."
Chen Yi surrounded her waist, smiling as he said, "If I don't get along, she'll make hold with one hand?"
"...Maybe." Yin Tingxue teased a little.
"Anyway, even if I give her the chance, what would happen if I'm holding with one hand?" Chen Yi teased her, obviously not believing it.
Yin Tingxue saw his disbelief, frowned, and said, "Don't underestimate; Master Zhou is stronger than you." She thought for a mont and added, "Shall I demonstrate for you?"
Chen Yi was curious to see how this little fox would demonstrate and said, "Okay, show ."
At this, she pushed him away a bit, and Chen Yi gave her enough space.
Candlelight flickered warmly in the room as Yin Tingxue leaned against the bed's edge with both hands, raising her stomach high to illustrate:
"Like this, with a reverse handstand, she can sit above you."
She flipped over and raised her body,
"With a forward handstand, she can co from below you..."
Yin Tingxue unknowingly turned red... What was she doing, had she gone mad, it was too embarrassing.
But for the sake of both of them, she could only demonstrate a few warnings.
She lowered her gaze to Chen Yi and gently shook her petite body, whispering, "...Understand?"
Chen Yi silently poked.
Her waist suddenly felt a weight, and unable to support herself, Yin Tingxue collapsed onto the bed, letting out a pitiful sound.
Seeing this cute and amusing scene, Chen Yi laughed heartily, pulled her close, and gently lulled her...
......
"Are you leaving now?"
Yin Tingxue shifted her body, reluctantly staying in his arms.
"Yes, we'll be apart for a while." Chen Yi said softly.
She would be following Zhou Yitang to Sword Town to choose a sword, Chen Yi knew. At this point, he suddenly rembered he had promised Yin Tingxue to get her a Flying Sword,
"When I return, I'll definitely give you the Flying Sword I promised."
"Oh, okay." Yin Tingxue wasn't really concerned. Suddenly thinking of sothing, she softly added, "And the Kongming Lantern for Master Zhou..."
"I rember that too; I'll do it when I return. Min Ming isn't here, so I don't know how to manage it now."
The girl had tried every angle to llow their relationship, and though Chen Yi saw through it, she didn't know that he and Zhou Yitang were no longer as sharply opposed as in the past.
Yin Tingxue only saw them quarrel at the head of the bed but didn't see them reconcile at its foot.
Seeing that Chen Yi rembered all matters, having arrangents in place, Yin Tingxue felt assured. After so thought, she softly said:
"...Oh, I can't bear to part with you."
She intentionally said this.
Chen Yi naturally felt pleased, rubbing his chin against her head and kissing her hair as he said:
"I can't bear to part with you even more."
......
After another period of ti, late autumn arrived, and what needed recovery was mostly restored. Staying longer at Dragon and Tiger Mountain was futile; severed ridians aren't repaired by re rest.
Despite being reluctant to part with many won, Chen Yi still had to embark on the Southern Border journey. To avoid sorrow, he didn't explicitly bid farewell.
Yin Tingxue would follow Zhou Yitang to Sword Town, then return to Yin Sword Mountain, with Lu Ying also accompanying them. The paths of the three won differed from his.
Fortunately, others would travel with him: Yin Weiyin, Donggong Ruoshu, and Lin Wanxiao, along with her maid Xiuhe.
The female crown needn't be ntioned. Wei Wuque had entrusted Donggong Ruoshu to him; now he had to allow her to return to her body, and Zhou Yitang had no solution for this, so Chen Yi had to bring her along. As for Lin Wanxiao, the little lady was indecisive. After pondering, he decided to keep her close and asked Zhou Yitang for an augury; the latter said "yes."
When departing Dragon and Tiger Mountain, the Hero Conference had long ended, the mountain returned to its forr tranquility, stripped of the bustling clamor of Jianghu, restoring the Taoist Ancestral Court's serene atmosphere.
Retrieving the Tai Sha Sword, bidding farewell to the Old Heavenly Master, taking leave of Primordial Monarch Yu Zhen,
Chen Yi then gazed southward,
For so reason, his heart was uneasy.
Was it hosickness?
Perhaps,
The daughter he had never t, and he hadn't seen Qin Qingluo in a long ti, along with...
Does she still hate him?
"Hate as much as you like, so I'll have reason to see you again."
