Chapter 199: Shui Miao Miao: I Am No Longer the Lazy Slacker Looking at Naughty Pics Princess
Inside the Simulation Secret Realm.
Shui Miao Miao’s expression was as calm as a cucumber. Facing the incoming Long Blade, she didn’t blink or dodge.
Ding!
The sword and blade clanged together, sending scattered sword energy and blade aura tearing the ground into deep trenches.
Shui Miao Miao retreated two steps, then slowly exhaled, continuously guiding her spiritual power and sharpening her sword aura.
Suddenly, the puppet she was fighting seemed to want to mess up her charge — it took a step forward, swinging its Long Blade swiftly at her head.
“Roar!”
She slightly opened her mouth and let out a deep dragon roar. The Long Sword in her hand shot forward like a dragon, piercing toward the puppet.
Bang!
The puppet was swept into the sky by the ‘Great Dragon,’ then fell back down with a heavy thud.
Shui Miao Miao strolled over to the puppet, chopped off its head with one sword strike.
But she wasn’t angry at the puppet; it wasn’t about revenge. It was because Bai Feng had a really dirty mind. Some of these puppets even played dead — she’d been duped by such tricks before, which turned her into a master of ‘whip-assembling’ corpses.
“Wow, that was easy!”
She looked at the now motionless puppet, her previously tense face gradually relaxing.
Compared to her nervous breakdown at the beginning when she faced elite monsters, she’d only failed about a dozen times fighting this one.
“Pretty good, pretty good, Junior Sister Shui, you’ve improved a lot since last time.”
Bai Feng emerged from the shadows with a smile, praising Shui Miao Miao.
She chuckled a little shyly. “Hehe, that’s mainly thanks to Senior Brother Bai’s patient guidance.”
Every time she failed, Bai Feng would come out to comfort her, point out her flaws, and patiently teach her sword techniques. She even felt that Bai Feng understood her better than she understood herself.
Watching Bai Feng praise her while also pointing out her shortcomings, Shui Miao Miao couldn’t help but crack a small smile — though Bai Feng had a touch of mischievousness, and the secret realm he created was pretty sinister, he was genuinely kind-hearted.
If only she could team up with Bai Feng… Uh, I mean!
She quickly smacked her forehead, stopping her own daydreams.
Bai Feng, observing Shui Miao Miao smacking her forehead, looked a bit puzzled.
Over these days, he’d often seen her do that, but she didn’t seem to have any brain issues. Maybe, every time she smacked her forehead, she got more serious?
‘Is this some sort of attention-boosting ritual?’ he wondered silently.
“By the way, Senior Brother Bai, I still don’t quite understand a sword technique. Can you help me review it again?”
After smacking her own head, Shui Miao Miao snapped back to full focus and began asking Bai Feng for guidance.
“No problem. Whatever you don’t understand, just ask away!”
Bai Feng watched her earnest expression and felt a warm, pleased smile creeping onto his face.
Although their time together was short, he’d watched her go from a lazy princess slacking off to this diligent, earnest girl step by step.
There was this strange sense of satisfaction — like a sense of achievement in cultivation.
The only downside? Shui Miao Miao was no longer a rookie. He needed to find some new novices to test his secret realm with.
……
“Alright, let’s stop here for today. Junior Sister Shui, go back and rest well. We’ll continue tomorrow.”
“Mm-hmm, see you tomorrow, Senior Brother Bai!”
After a long bout of fighting and even sparring with Bai Feng for a while, Shui Miao Miao was pretty worn out.
She said goodbye and hurried back to her place.
“Coming to Heavenly Sword Sect was definitely the best decision I’ve ever made in my life,” she thought as she lay on her bed, giggling to herself at her progress these past few days.
Having fought through many battles, she had transformed completely — even her dragon bloodline had begun to awaken during combat. That was something she’d totally never dared to imagine before arriving at Heavenly Sword Sect, especially since her dragon bloodline was a bit weaker than her siblings’.
Plus, her combat experience was skyrocketing. Now, when facing enemies again, she wouldn’t panic like she once did. Even if the opponent suddenly popped out from a corner, she could handle it easily.
In short, she was no longer the useless princess who loomed in the background watching smutty pictures all day.
“Oh, I haven’t visited Xiao Jin and the others in ages. Now that I’ve gotten stronger, I should go give them some pointers.”
Thinking this, she eagled out of bed and dashed towards Xiao Jin’s place.
A few minutes later…
“Why are you guys reading that kind of stuff again? Seize the books!”
After scolding her maids, Shui Miao Miao changed her mind halfway, confiscating the previous books and returning to her own quarters.
“Seriously, can’t they just focus on practicing instead of relaxing like me?”
She muttered, drawing the curtain and sitting on her bed, flipping through her spring-and-autumn classical.
“Oh no, why am I reading these again?”
Suddenly realizing something, she hurriedly shut the book.
But after a few minutes, she kept sneaking glances at the spring-and-autumn sitting beside her bed.
“Just a quick look. I’ve been disciplined enough. It’s not a big deal to peek…”
She gently touched the corner of the book and whispered, “Actually, this book isn’t that naughty! There’s not even anyone hugging, so it’s totally fine to look once in a while.”
Making excuses for herself, Shui Miao Miao felt at ease as she resumed reading.
“Huh? The clothes design is so weird! The back is almost fully exposed. Does that mean you could just reach behind and…?”
Though her eyes focused on the book, her imagination drifted wildly: she pictured herself training in such an outfit, with Bai Feng coming over to supervise her swordsmanship, then leaning behind her and—wait, what was she thinking?
“Wait… what am I even thinking?”
She covered her face with her hands, then slammed her head against the wall.
Her forehead reddened, but her eyes couldn’t help sneaking a glance at the spring-and-autumn book beside her.
“Hm, these clothes are pretty suitable for… cough cough!”
She kept staring at the pages for a few minutes before quietly closing the book.
Then, she pulled herself up, crouched down, and reached for the storage bag under her bed.
She rummaged through it and pulled out a mostly unread book titled “The Runaway Princess and the Domineering Young Master.”
“I… I wasn’t trying to read this. I just forgot what happened earlier and wanted to review the plot…”
She whispered, searching for an excuse, then flipped to the next page and started reading carefully.
She wasn’t a big fan of this book — the writing was pretty decent, but the princess was so fake, like an emperor’s fake gold shovel. So, she’d skimmed it once and put it aside, never read it again.
But today, when she saw it, she suddenly felt like reading it again.
Yep, no special reason, just randomly wanted to see it once more.
She stared at the text on the page, swallowed nervously, then suddenly looked up at the window, double-checked that the curtain was drawn, and then like a slimy mudfish, slipped into her blanket nest.
