Chapter 436: Yun Yue Yao: Why does this bed smell like another woman?
“Dad, I’m back.”
“Stinky brat, you still remember to come home?” Bai Tian You finally stopped overthinking and a smile crept onto his face. “Yu Mo, has he been causing trouble lately?”
White Yu Mo hurriedly shook her head. “No, Brother has been practicing diligently.”
“Hahaha, don’t bother covering for him. I already know what he’s like. Sure, he’s practicing—probably— but effort? Eh, hardly.”
Especially since Bai Feng entered the Heavenly Sword Sect, White Family’s naughty picture prints haven’t stopped. Not that it’s unusual.
Bai Tian You then looked towards Yun Yue Yao, smiling warmly. “Yun Yao, you’re here too. Has Feng’er been bothering you these days?”
“No, Bai Feng treats me very well,” Yun Yue Yao shook her head, smiling lightly.
“That’s good, that’s good.”
Bai Tian You’s kind smile had a little trouble restraining itself. Then he looked at Yu Yao, about to ask something, but Yu Yao quickly interrupted.
“Uncle Bai, hello. I’m Yu Yao.”
“Oh, you’re Bai Linglong’s kid,” Bai Tian You nodded as if suddenly enlightened. “Your family’s new communicator and image retainer are quite interesting. I’ve been chatting on them every day.”
“That’s all Bai Feng’s doing. I’m just helping sell some things,” Yu Yao said with a shy smile.
“Hahaha, if Bai Linglong is just helping to sell things, then our Bai family is just an ordinary little clan,” he said politely. Then his gaze shifted to Shui Miao Miao. “And who’s this…”
“Hello, Uncle Bai. I’m Shui Miao Miao from Eastern Continent. Recently, I’ve been learning from Senior Brother Bai. Uncle Bai, just call me by my name.”
Shui Miao Miao stood gracefully, a faint smile on her face, completely composed, no longer the rash girl from before.
Bai Feng blinked in confusion. Who are you? Where did you hide Shui Miao Miao?
“It must be tough coming all this way from Eastern Continent to the Northern Region, right?”
“Ah… yes, pretty tough,” Shui Miao Miao replied.
Thinking of how she almost couldn’t hold back her images with Bai Shi Xiong—wait, her naughty drawings—she felt her composure slipping a bit.
“Take your time exploring Qinghong City. If anything comes up, talk to Feng’er directly. No need to be polite.”
Bai Tian You nodded, realizing she came for the portable array, Bai Feng’s expertise. After all, Bai Feng’s best at arrays; what else would she learn besides drawing diagrams? Not some sketchy picture, surely?
“Alright, you’ve traveled a long way. I’ve arranged everything…”
Before Bai Tian You finished, Bai Feng quietly cut him off. “Dad, no need to trouble yourself. We prefer a quiet environment. Let me handle the arrangements.”
“Can you do that?” Bai Tian You looked doubtful.
“Don’t worry. If I can’t arrange it, nobody can,” Bai Feng asserted.
Seeing Bai Feng so determined, Bai Tian You didn’t press further. He just nodded, “Alright, I’ll leave it to you.”
…
“This was where I used to live. The buildings next to it are all empty. If you find the guest rooms uncomfortable, choose one here. Easier to find me if you need anything.”
Bai Feng stood in front of his place, addressing the others.
Within seconds, the team dispersed to pick their rooms.
After they chose and settled, Bai Feng pushed open his door and returned inside. The house was spotless, nearly free of dust—just like when he left.
He wandered into a narrow, hidden study. Dust covered everything inside, seemingly untouched since he left—probably his father’s doing, ignoring this place because it was where he used to draw naughty pictures.
He casually gathered spiritual energy, sweeping dust out the door. Soon, the study was much cleaner.
But he wasn’t here to doodle. This was the place he spent most of his time, and he wanted to come back and reminisce.
Suddenly, he sensed someone knocking. He left the study and saw Yun Yue Yao discreetly pushing open the door, her head peeking inside, looking around suspiciously.
“Third Sister, what are you doing?”
“Hehe, I’m just curious about your place, little disciple,” Yun Yue Yao said with a shy smile. “I knocked, but you didn’t hear.”
“There’s nothing interesting here,” Bai Feng shrugged helplessly. “Forget it, Sis, if you want to visit, just look around freely.”
“Then I won’t hold back.” Yun Yue Yao pushed the door open and strode in. Then she suddenly hesitated. “By the way, should I still call you Little Disciple?”
“Just a title—say whatever you want,” Bai Feng said nonchalantly.
“Maybe we should only call you that privately from now on,” Yun Yue Yao decided after a moment of thought.
She looked around and said, “You know, Little Disciple, your place is pretty simple. I thought you’d have lots of drawings or something.”
“Actually, I do… but I’ve stored them all away,” Bai Feng replied.
Just then, his communicator beeped. He checked it and saw it was from Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao: Bai Young Master, we’re already on our way. We should arrive tomorrow~
Bai Feng: When you arrive, don’t run around. Just come to Bai Family or wait at Bai Linglong’s place.
Qiao Qiao: Rest assured, Bai Young Master. Do you think I, a fox, wouldn’t know what I’m doing?
‘A fox daring to use Charm magic on me,’ he silently thought, amused.
Bai Feng: Just don’t run around. That’s all.
He stowed the communicator away and looked at Yun Yue Yao, who was curious. “Qiao Qiao is sending messages. They’ll arrive tomorrow.”
“Then I’ll go with you when they arrive,” she said.
“Sure. I want to see Bai Linglong’s array too, maybe suggest a revision.”
…
Late at night.
“Changing locations, huh? Are you back at Bai’s now?”
Tian Yan appeared over Bai Feng’s bed, skillfully pulling back the blanket and slipping in.
“…I almost forgot you’re in my ring,” Bai Feng looked at Tian Yan, who was cuddling close like a little heater. “You’re getting bolder.”
“Don’t wanna stay outside; it’s boring,” Tian Yan shook her head. “I’d rather take care of my cows and wheat or practice with you.”
“You’re turning into a real hermit,” Bai Feng teased. “Wasn’t like this before.”
“Back then, traveling was for cultivation. Now that I have you, there’s no point wandering outside.”
Tian Yan’s little face nuzzled Bai Feng’s body. No expression revealed much, but her tight embrace showed she was pretty pleased.
Suddenly, his bedroom window was flung open. Before he knew it, Tian Yan vanished into her ring in an instant.
Bai Feng: …
What’s with this weird obsession with sneaking? Bizarre hobby.
He muttered internally then turned to the window and saw Yun Yue Yao skillfully slipping in through the window.
“Midnight visit, what’s up?” he asked.
“Hmph, isn’t that obvious?” Yun Yue Yao grinned, then dove straight into Bai Feng’s bed. “Finally, I can lie here with you.”
But then she furrowed her brow slightly. “Hmm? Why does your quilt smell like another woman? And the scent just now—like she just hid in your blanket a few seconds ago.”
“…”
Are you a dog’s nose? No, even dogs aren’t that sharp.
