Chapter 141: Is This a Child of Which Elder? So Adorably Cute!
Bai Feng, upon hearing Bai Yu Mo’s question, finally turned around and explained, “We saw Junior Sister Shui heading this way. Looks like she’s here to find you.”
“Probably asking about sword techniques again, huh?” Bai Yu Mo nodded with a knowing look, still holding onto her good impression of the princess who kept mistaking her and Bai Feng for a couple. “Big Brother, wanna join?”
Bai Feng didn’t answer right away. Instead, he chuckled and asked, “Aren’t you curious about why we’re here to see you first?”
“Is it about clothes?” Bai Yu Mo tilted her head.
“Nope,” Bai Feng shook his head. “Senior Sister and I’s Shadow Image Devices are selling pretty well, so she bought some top-notch ingredients to celebrate. Want to come?”
“Yeah!”
Bai Yu Mo nodded without hesitation. As for Shui Miao Miao, well, there’s plenty of time. We’ll deal with that later!
Meanwhile, Shui Miao Miao, rushing over from afar, had also caught sight of Bai Feng and the others outside the door. Her face showed a bit of confusion—did Senior Sister have something to deal with?
Seriously, should’ve skipped the reading. Wasted so much time over nothing.
Shrugging off her thoughts, she quickened her pace and hurried to Bai Yu Mo’s door.
“Senior Sister, Bai Senior!”
Shui Miao Miao grinned, waving cheerfully at Bai Yu Mo and Bai Feng. Then, her gaze shifted to Yu Yao, a puzzled look on her face.
This little girl—is she the child of which elder? She’s so strong, even a Golden Core Stage little kid! As expected of the Heavenly Sword Sect!
She couldn’t help but smile and ask, “Whose kid is this? Looks super cute!”
Bai Feng: “……”
Wow, how brave are you!
He could already imagine Yu Yao’s ‘friendly’ expression even without looking.
Since he still held a decent impression of Shui Miao Miao, he refrained from watching her make a fool of herself. He cleared his throat and explained, “Shui Miao Miao, you’ve got it wrong. This is Senior Sister Yu Yao.”
“Oh… huh?” Shui Miao Miao froze.
Senior Sister?
She looked at Bai Feng, voice trembling a bit—as if seeking help—“Did Senior Sister join the Heavenly Sword Sect when she was really young?”
“No, Senior Sister’s just… basically petite,” Bai Feng tried to find the right words.
“Hello, Junior Sister Shui!”
Yu Yao also grinned as she addressed Shui Miao Miao, emphasizing the ‘Junior Sister’ part with extra weight.
Shui Miao Miao’s expression instantly fell into stunned silence, as if the whole world just blacked out.
Oh no, I messed up again!
She almost burst into tears, forcing a withered smile on her face, and hurriedly apologized, “Senior Sister, I’m sorry! Please forgive me, I can do anything!”
“Oh? Can handle everything?” Yu Yao’s eyes twinkled with mischief.
“Yes… yes…” Shui Miao Miao lowered her head, trembling.
What does Senior Sister mean? Is she into some weird kinks—like using her for something?
No wait—this is the Heavenly Sword Sect. Senior Sister must be a nice person. Stop having weird thoughts in your head!
“Hmm… Not bad figure!” Yu Yao reached out and pinched her arm. “Skin’s pretty smooth too!”
“Eek!!!”
Shui Miao Miao looked horrified—could that Senior Sister really have such a preference?
This is bad. I gotta get out of here!
“Senior… Sister, no, please!” She shrank back, hugging her arms tightly, slowly backing away.
“Senior Sister, you wouldn’t happen to want the Junior Sister to help try on clothes, huh?”
Bai Feng immediately saw through Yu Yao’s plan.
“Can’t help it. You and Bai Mo are busy, huh!” Yu Yao looked a bit helpless. “I keep making new dresses, they can’t just sit around gathering dust, right?”
“Huh? Try on clothes?” Shui Miao Miao was stunned—thought she was just supposed to do that kind of thing?
Wait—could it be she’s about to be tricked inside, then dressed in those kind of clothes, and then…?
She hurriedly slapped her own face—stop overthinking! Senior Sister wouldn’t be that kind of person!
Senior Sister looks small; her dresses must be adorable too!
“Junior Sister Shui, what do you think? Want to help me try on some clothes?” Yu Yao asked with a smile.
“Yes yes! No problem at all!” Shui Miao Miao nodded eagerly. “Senior Sister can come find me anytime. I’ve got all the time in the world!”
“By the way!” She suddenly remembered something. She pulled her Shadow Image Device out of her storage bag, and in apology, handed it over to Yu Yao. “I bought a few more items I saw in Xuan Guang City. Thought they looked interesting—hope you don’t mind…”
Bai Feng took the Shadow Image Device with a strange look, glancing down at Yu Yao. He saw Yu Yao raising her head, her expression equally odd.
Seeing their strange reactions, Shui Miao Miao asked nervously, “Uh… don’t like it?”
“N… how to put it?” Bai Feng shrugged and pointed at Yu Yao. “Senior Sister Yu Yao is from the Yu family.”
“Eh?”
Shui Miao Miao looked puzzled. The Yu family? What’s that got to do with anything?
Bai Feng continued, “Yu Ling Long is her family’s shop.”
“Oh?”
Her eyes widened with surprise. Yu Ling Long was the largest auction house in the Northern Region—everyone knew about it.

As expected of the Heavenly Sword Sect—every disciple has a notable background.
Seeing Shui Miao Miao still a bit stunned, Bai Feng explained further: “Also, the Xuan Guang City Yu Ling Long store—the one where you bought the Shadow Image Device—is owned by her.”
“Oh… huh?” Shui Miao Miao finally reacted, looking down at Yu Yao and then at the Shadow Image Device in her hand. Her expression was a bit dazed. “So… the Shadow Image Device is sold by Senior Sister?”
“Yeah,” Yu Yao nodded. She gently returned the Shadow Image Device to Shui Miao Miao’s hand. “If you like, I can give you some better ones.”
“Thank you, Senior Sister.”
Shui Miao Miao looked at the Shadow Image Device in her hand, feeling a mix of confusion and sadness. Her carefully prepared gift seemed impossible to give now…
Bai Yu Mo saw Bai Feng and Yu Yao teasing Shui Miao Miao, then finally spoke to her: “Junior Sister Shui, anything you need from me?”
“I…” Shui Miao Miao’s face looked a bit gloomy. “Just wanted to thank Senior Sister for her help these days…”
“No need. It’s what I should do.” Bai Yu Mo glanced at the Shadow Image Device in her hand, but seeing Shui Miao Miao’s mood, she didn’t return it. “Just keep it this time. No need to give it back later.”
“Alright…” Shui Miao Miao nodded quietly, feeling very gloomy.
She totally blew it! Am I just bad at making friends or what?
Just then, Yu Yao suddenly asked, “Hey, Junior Sister Shui, wanna eat together? We’re planning a small gathering to celebrate.”
“Won’t bother you guys?” Shui Miao Miao whispered hesitantly.
“Nah, more people, more fun!” Yu Yao waved cheerful. “Plus, I’d like to thank you again for supporting the Shadow Image Devices!”
“Then I’ll accept your invitation, Senior Sister!” Shui Miao Miao hurriedly nodded, not letting this chance slip away.
As expected, Senior Sister Yu Yao and Senior Sister Bai Yu Mo are both genuinely good people—almost made me misjudge again.
