Chapter 87: Master Sister Yu Yao is Just So Dull, She Got Drunk After Just One Sip
Bai Feng’s reason for changing his mind and heading to the auction house was simple—compared to passively accepting everything he knew nothing about, he preferred to take the initiative.
That way, he could gather more information, and even if something unexpected happened, he’d be able to prepare early.
While Bai Feng and Yu Yao were chatting idly, City Lord Gu and her daughter strolled over. She smiled warmly: “Didn’t want to interrupt your bonding session, huh?”
“Auntie, please don’t say such strange things!”
Yu Yao immediately stiffened up, her senses alert. She was just about to scoot closer to Bai Yu Mo when she suddenly thought, If I do that, I’ll look more suspicious. So, she simply squeezed over next to Bai Yu Mo, glaring suspiciously at City Lord Gu.
“Don’t be shy now!”
City Lord Gu was not offended by Yu Yao’s reaction. Instead, a gentle smile crept onto her face. She turned to the young girl beside her and introduced, “This is my daughter, Gu Yue Qing. For the time being, let her help you guys get familiar with Xuan Guang City. If any trouble crops up, she’s the one you can turn to for help.”
“Got it, got it! Auntie, you better head back quickly. If any trouble happens, I’ll help out too!”
Yu Yao hurriedly waved her hands, genuinely afraid Auntie might suddenly rush over and scoop her up like a kid.
It’s just that she’s a bit shorter than average! Why treat her like a child?
“Then I won’t bother you anymore.”
City Lord Gu didn’t get upset at being dismissed. She simply smiled at everyone, then turned around to go back to her seat, continuing her chat with Liu Meng and the others.
“Hello there!”
Gu Yue Qing looked a little reserved—after all, her front row of nearly all geniuses she dreamed of reaching. Even ignoring Bai Feng, who had been beaten by Spirit Sealing Sect’s white jade spirit root, she still had Bai Yu Mo with her celestial bone, Su Lan Qian the Array genius, and Luo Chen who’d previously defeated the Heavenly Sword Sect’s top senior brother with a ruthless sword technique. And that boy disciple standing nearby… she’d heard of him, too—Lin Yan, the alchemist genius of Heavenly Sword Sect—and he was not just about alchemy, but also capable of fighting, with power to match.
And though she’s been called a genius herself, among this crowd, her talent feels a bit lacking.
“Good sister Gu, don’t just stand there. Sit down already!” Without City Lord Gu, Yu Yao became a bit bolder. She dragged over a chair and sat it beside Gu Yue Qing. “It’s been ages since we last saw each other, right?”
“Thanks.” Gu Yue Qing nodded gratefully. She reached down to adjust her long robes at her hips and thighs—almost revealing her rounded curves—then slowly sat in her chair. “It’s been a few years, I guess. Since entering the sect for cultivation, we’ve hardly crossed paths.”
She sighed softly, a touch of melancholy in her voice: “Sadly, my talent was a bit short, so I didn’t make it into Heavenly Sword Sect.”
“That’s okay. Cultivation’s your own path,” Yu Yao comforted her. “And you joined Cloud Piercing Sect, right? The big sects aren’t that different anyway.”
Bai Feng contemplated for a few seconds, quickly searching his mind—Cloud Piercing Sect is second only to the Northern Region’s top four sects, skilled in archery, good at cultivating herbal medicines, and also involved in alchemy. Not quite as famous as Dan Peak of Heavenly Sword Sect, but still far surpassing other sects.
Under Yu Yao’s guidance, everyone started chatting more openly. Gu Yue Qing’s nervousness visibly eased.
“Senior sister Gu, you’re an archer, huh?” Bai Feng glanced involuntarily at Gu Yue Qing’s prominent ‘chest muscles.’ With that build, shooting bows was probably a bit tricky. “I’ve always been curious about how archers fight.”
“If Brother Bai is interested, you can come try in the morning at the practice field. I can show you a thing or two.” Gu Yue Qing smiled brightly.
“Sure, if I have time,” Bai Feng responded politely. He wasn’t daring enough to get too close—what if accidentally drawing the attention of a new Child of Destiny wasn’t exactly ideal?
“Little senior brother, actually, your senior sister here can also sh**t bows!” Suddenly, Yu Yao swayed her wine glass and said, blushing. “I was really good with my bow when I was a kid. Pity I grew too tall; I couldn’t find a suitable bow anymore. So, I gave up.”
Hearing Yu Yao’s familiar tone, Bai Feng’s attitude turned a bit less formal. He bluntly teased, “Hmm, yes, senior sister. If you really want to sh**t, you might need to use your feet instead.”
“Eh! Little junior brother, you’re so clever! I can sh**t with my feet, yeah!”
Though she was a little tipsy, Yu Yao didn’t seem to catch Bai Feng’s meaning and even cheered herself on. “Promise me! Tomorrow morning at the training ground—watch senior sister sh**t with her feet!”
“…I really should wake up early to check that out,”
White Feng imagined Yu Yao shooting arrows with her feet and felt a surge of anticipation. This scene was definitely going to be interesting!
Better prepare a few more Shadow Stones for capturing the moment!
“I’m looking forward to it too!”
Gu Yue Qing chuckled softly, her mischievous smile hinting that she wasn’t quite as innocent as she appeared.
“Just look forward to it. Senior sister here will definitely surprise you all!”
Seeing Bai Feng and Gu Yue Qing fooling around with drunken Yu Yao, Bai Yu Mo sitting beside them couldn’t resist saying, “Senior sister, you’ve had enough. Rest for a bit.”
“Yeah… I think so,” Yu Yao rubbed her head. “You guys chat—your senior sister will just lie down for a bit.”
With that, she collapsed onto the table and fell asleep.
“Ah, Yu Yao senior sister is just so dull, only one sip and she’s drunk,” Bai Feng chuckled, eyeing the nearly untouched wine before him.
Gu Yue Qing, who had been listening, joined in with a smile. “So, Bai junior brother, you’re quite a drinker then?”
“Just joking—super good at drinking… wait!”
Bai Feng suddenly froze. Close call—he almost slipped into the “Jiege Leroy prank” storyline.
He waved hurriedly: “Ahem, actually, I’ve got a pretty normal alcohol tolerance. And as an Array Master, I actually don’t like feeling drunk.”
“Mm, I understand. When drunk, the head gets fuzzy, and it’s hard to draw a bow steadily.”
Though Yu Yao was knocked out sleeping, the atmosphere didn’t turn cold after their exchange. Instead, Gu Yue Qing relaxed her guard, and the conversation continued lively.
She even asked around about the Sect’s talented disciples—really gaining some intel. For example, there was a rising star in Cloud Piercing Sect who was pretty average at first but suddenly took off after some mysterious breakthrough. She even met Gu Yue Qing once and helped her solve a problem.
This immediately made Bai Feng alert.
That’s definitely a Child of Destiny!
Luckily, this Child of Destiny wasn’t in Xuan Guang City right now. If they were, Bai Feng might just consider relocating.
