Chapter 445: Visitor

Chapter 445: Visitor

Although Ruo’er often dreamed about being with the Young Master, her identity as a young girl made her respect Lin Nuo, so even in her dreams, she would hold back.

Moreover, in her dreams, she remained a loli, or even younger.

But this time was different; it was her grown-up appearance.

In the dream, she didn’t find it strange because her subconscious recognized this form.

Then there’s the outfit—she wore a very peculiar dress, one she had never seen before.

But that was fine, her subconscious accepted this image; it was only upon waking that she found it odd.

She remembered the details clearly; at the time, her face was pure and sweet, matching beautifully with that unknown dress.

But where did that dress come from?

And her words and actions were naturally very different from before.

But in the dream, everything made perfect sense, and there was nothing wrong—only after waking did she realize.

She never expected she would confess her feelings deeply to the Young Master in that dream. In her daily life, she wouldn’t dare to say such things!

She was so scared! She hadn’t ascended yet and didn’t have enough strength to match the Young Master—just a servant of his. Confessing would surely end in rejection, and it would be awkward to follow him afterward.

That’s why she lacked the courage, yet in this dream, she spoke boldly.

She even bravely kissed him, and the Young Master didn’t resist; he embraced her!

Then, well, there was nothing more—she woke up.

According to how things unfolded, surely they would do something more intimate afterward; kissing was just an appetizer, while the real meal awaited—how wonderful it would be!

But it ended abruptly, and she woke up, unable to continue.

It was going to be hard to dream such a thing again—waah!

Ruo’er tossed and turned, unable to sleep, fully alert, as if a book reached its climax but then abruptly cut off, leaving her extremely frustrated.

“Waaah, Young Master, my Young Master!”

Ruo’er clutched her pillow in distress, even shouting out loud.

At that moment, there was a knock at the door.

Her first reaction was Lin Nuo; her tail and ears perked up, and she hurriedly jumped out of bed to open the door.

“Young Master, Young Master!”

She opened the door, but to her disappointment, it wasn’t her Young Master outside, but her mentor, Dong Xiyan.

“Dong, Dong Fairy.”

Though she tried to disguise her disappointment, her body couldn’t hide it; her tail and ears drooped.

Dong Xiyan noticed her physical features and tone, sighed, saying:

“Alas, Ruo’er, I know you miss Lin Gongzi very much, but now that you’ve stepped onto the path of immortality, you should focus on cultivating. Besides, you’ve just returned; how can you expect to see him right away and still practice properly?”

“Um, Dong Fairy, I understand… What did you come to see me for?”

“Of course, I came to help you cultivate.”

“Oh… okay, I’ll tidy up and then get to practicing…”

Ruo’er pouted, her mind filled with Lin Nuo and the dream scenes, lacking the motivation to cultivate.

But even so, she couldn’t slack off; she needed to quickly get into the right mindset—persistence was key!

—

Lin Nuo roasted a few pigeons, fished at the pond, played chess with an old man at the village entrance, defeated his knights, and then went to the pastry shop for some meat floss cakes, completely forgetting about the dream.

At that moment, Lin Nuo firmly believed his main source of joy wasn’t women.

After tidying up, Lin Nuo soared to Tianling Mountain.

Of course, he still had to descend on foot to climb the mountain.

Primarily because he could never get past the Spirit Layer, there was always the risk of crashing.

But this wasn’t his first time; he was used to it, quickly hiking back to the Xuanyun Sect.

Returning to the Xuanyun Sect was probably just to discuss strategies with the Sect Master, and then continue hanging around Helong Hall. He had been on the mission to Ru Yu Village for several days, so it was time to continue the task.

Since Helong Hall was still operational and couldn’t be suppressed by other powers, the momentum was just right. Plus, he knew Mu Yiting’s leave was about to end; he had to get back.

Ascending the last stone step, Lin Nuo finally landed on the flat grasslands—his home.

The white robe he donned was dignified but ultimately not suited for him; after descending, he changed it. By using his excellent disguise skills, he transformed into a dragon of the underworld, ready to swallow Helong Hall.

Lin Nuo walked straight towards the Sect Master’s residence and just happened to pass by Han Fairy’s pavilion.

In front of the pavilion was a spirit pool, where a spirit crane was quietly drinking water.

The spirit crane noticed him approach, glanced at him haughtily, then continued to drink, its backside sticking up high.

Lin Nuo found it displeasing and, walking past it, kicked it into the pool.

Water splashed everywhere, and the spirit crane flapped its wings to escape the water, its feathers soaking wet.

The crane was furious; how could Lin Nuo kick it while it was drinking peacefully?

But it didn’t dare to express its anger since it had seen Lin Nuo roast spirit pigeons before, fearing for its own fate.

Flapping its wings, the crane could only reluctantly fly away, thinking this Lin fellow was dangerous; it was best not to provoke him and end up in a worse situation.

“Just running away?”

Lin Nuo shook his head. Wasn’t that crane usually so conceited? One kick and it fled.

Pathetic.

Oh well, time to go to the Sect Master’s residence.

“Junior Martial Brother, you’re back.”

Just then, a soft female voice came from the pavilion, and Lin Nuo looked over to see his Senior Martial Sister, Liu Shuqin.

“Mm, I’m back, Senior Martial Sister.”

Lin Nuo greeted before continuing towards the Sect Master’s residence.

“Let’s have tea together when you have time. I’ll be on my way.”

“Junior Martial Brother, we have guests in the pavilion who came specifically to see you. If you’re not in a hurry, come in and meet them,” Liu Shuqin said promptly.

“Guests?”

Lin Nuo raised an eyebrow. Who would come by for no reason to visit him?

“Alright, I’ll go meet them.”

Lin Nuo changed direction, following Liu Shuqin into the pavilion.

The pavilion was bustling; his Master, Senior Martial Sister, Second Martial Sister, and Junior Martial Sister were all present.

Though Junior Martial Sister returned later than her, she had been flying the entire way, while he had walked part of the way and occasionally rode a horse, often encountering horse hunters from Zu’an.

In the pavilion, indeed, two visitors stood out, and Lin Nuo found them quite familiar.

Wow, isn’t this—

“The two fairies, Lin Nuo has returned.”

Han Fairy said to the two guests, then turned to Lin Nuo, saying:

“Lin Nuo, today two fairies came to Xuanyun Sect to exchange teachings about martial arts. They recognized you and specifically came to pay you a visit.”

The two fairies turned towards Lin Nuo, respectfully greeting:

“Hello, Lin Gongzi.”

“It was fine until I saw you, and now I’m not feeling well at all.”

Lin Nuo replied with a hint of annoyance.

“What’s this, come to deliver fairy charms for me?”

Though his tone with these two young fairies was not friendly, to his three senior sisters, the atmosphere seemed extremely intimate.

When did he get to know these two fairies?
