Chapter 606: Chapter 558: Emotion Point +3 from Bai Yaosha

Bai Yaosha was stunned like a wooden chicken, unable to return to her senses for a long time, letting Qin Yu wipe the corner of her lips.

"You... how could you kiss me."

Bai Yaosha’s voice became soft and sweet, as if scolding, but actually sounding more like a gentle complaint. She lightly pursed her lips, feeling the lingering traces, and couldn’t help but flush with shame in her heart.

"We’re already Dao Companions, why can’t I kiss you?"

Qin Yu couldn’t help but chuckle, as the shy Bai Yaosha looked just like a bashful, young girl.

It’s just that her skills in this area were still too lacking, needing much improvement.

But that taste... it’s truly addicting.

"I’m not! My sister is your Dao Companion."

Bai Yaosha said, ashamed, not sure if she meant to remind Qin Yu to regain her senses or to warn herself.

"You don’t want to help her?"

Qin Yu looked at the beauty nestled in his arms, smiling softly.

"Help... with what?"

Before Bai Yaosha finished speaking, suddenly memories of her younger sister’s whispered words surfaced, instantly making her cheeks burn crimson.

How could things be that exaggerated!

Even if Father and the Clan Elders have defaulted to accepting it, she still can’t let go.

After all, Qin Yu is her sister’s man!

How can this kind of thing... be helped?

"You can stay here and rest tomorrow. I’ll go by myself,"

"Why?"

"You’ll know later."

Facing an innocent and stunning Bai Yaosha, to feel nothing is simply impossible.

A lone man and woman alone together in one room, not to mention, even the betrothal gifts have been given...

Qin Yu is no Saint!

So then...

When Bai Yaosha put on her new clothes, he was simply dumbstruck.

...

[Three hundred and eighty-six words omitted here]

...

Faced with Qin Yu’s somewhat entranced gaze, Bai Yaosha was all bashfulness, yet in the bottom of her heart there seemed to be a faint hint of sweetness?

She still tried to cover up something.

But all she succeeded in doing was making herself even more alluring.

Qin Yu leaned in on her.

"Quack!"

Beneath the moonlight, the two toppled onto the bed, finally ending up intertwined together.

...

As the flames flickered, the falling red silk thread tied the two together.

After some time.

[Emotion Point from Bai Yaosha +3]

[Bai Yaosha Romantic Point: 35 (Growing Affection)]

Only now did Qin Yu realize, Bai Yaosha was not as distant as she appeared to be; in fact, unawares, she had already developed feelings for him.

It was just because of Bai Yaoyin, she never showed them.

But this time, after returning to the Bai Race’s territory and resolving Bai Yaosha’s anxieties, in a half-hearted push and pull, she finally let go of her inner hesitations.

Perhaps it was thanks to Bai Lan and the Clan Elders’ approval, Bai Yaosha’s Romantic Point had already reached ’Growing Affection,’ and it was slowly but steadily rising.

An hour later.

Bai Yaosha, exhausted all over, curled up in Qin Yu’s embrace.

She had a basic understanding of matters between men and women—the clan had prepared her for marriage by having an aunt teach her some common sense—but after actually experiencing it, she realized it was completely different!

Bai Yaosha used to wonder why her sister always came to her for help.

She could feel that Qin Yu was already exceptionally gentle and considerate, taking care of her feelings; he plainly had stamina left, but she really...

Had reached her limit.

Only now did she understand, a single person truly couldn’t bear it all.

At the thought of her sister’s sincere gaze when asking for help, Bai Yaosha couldn’t help but feel a wave of guilt—she had really misunderstood her sister.

She couldn’t even imagine: how did her delicate sister get through these past few months?

"Qin Yu..."

"Call me ’Husband’!"

"No, I can’t!"

"Weren’t you calling me that just now?"

At these words, Bai Yaosha’s face filled with shame; at that time, her mind was rather muddled, her whole self in a dazed trance.

That doesn’t count!

"Hu...Husband."

Facing those deep, expectant obsidian eyes, Bai Yaosha felt her heart race in panic, burying her head in his embrace, her voice soft as a mosquito.

In the next instant, Bai Yaosha suddenly sensed something and panicked even more.

"W-wait a moment."

Bai Yaosha hurriedly stopped him. Although she’d recovered a bit, she truly had no energy left.

"Husband, I think there’s a current of energy in my body..."

Bai Yaosha quickly brought up what she had just noticed.

She didn’t know if it was because of that special energy, but even the pain in her body had been greatly alleviated.

She could even clearly feel, under the nourishment of that warm current, her physique was subtly changing?

As if... being enhanced?!

How could that be?

If her constitution was improving, didn’t that mean her Root Bone was too?

At first Bai Yaosha wasn’t sure.

But the speed of this improvement, while not fast, was definitely there and unmistakable.

So, what exactly was that, that it could improve one’s Root Bone?

Seeing this, Qin Yu didn’t hide it from her; he explained everything.

"It really can improve Root Bone?"

Bai Yaosha was completely stunned.

She and her sister’s Root Bone were only average among the Ancient Race, which is why they’d encountered all this trouble.

If Root Bone could be improved then...

"Ask Yaoyin later. The thing in her body... is even more than yours,"

Qin Yu smiled indulgently and didn’t tease her further.

Perhaps because of the ’sister-in-law’ identity, Bai Yaosha was especially reserved. And since this was her first time cultivating, the fact she lasted this long was already quite impressive.

"Ah?"

At that, Bai Yaosha blushed bright red. How could she even ask about something like this?

But then...

Could she always keep it from her sister?

Bai Yaosha hesitated a bit.

Her sister had always treated her so sincerely; keeping secrets from her just didn’t feel right. And, more crucially, she alone simply couldn’t handle it all.

Luckily, for now they’re still within the clan, so she can be more open, but if they go to the Great Yan Imperial Capital and face her sister...

Bai Yaosha didn’t speak, she just looked up from Qin Yu’s embrace, her eyes bright, as if anticipating something.

How could anyone resist that?!

"Don’t blame me then!"

Qin Yu whispered, and everything happened just as it was destined to.

A whole night passed.

Bai Yaosha received five waves of energy, and, in the end, fell asleep in Qin Yu’s arms.

By the time Qin Yu left for the mountain peak to repair the Ancient Array, she finally managed to prop herself up and sit up.

But her face still couldn’t quite hide the exhaustion.

At last, Bai Yaosha understood why Qin Yu wanted her to stay here and rest.

Right now, even getting out of bed was hard; if she tried, her father and Clan Elders would instantly spot something was off.

"Buzzzz..."

As Bai Yaosha was struggling with whether or not to be honest with her sister, the Sound Transmission Stone suddenly trembled.

Noticing her sister’s signature flickering on the stone, Bai Yaosha felt a wave of anxiety. After a while, she finally made up her mind and picked up.

"Yaoyin."

Bai Yaosha took a deep breath, making her voice as normal as possible.

"Sis, is everything going smoothly? The Clan Elders didn’t give you any trouble?"

Bai Yaoyin’s voice came from the other side of the Sound Transmission Stone.

"No trouble..."

Hearing her sister’s concern, Bai Yaosha felt strangely guilty for some reason.

Although since they were kids they’d vowed to share burdens, that was childhood talk—it barely counted now.

"Father sent me a message yesterday; is he repairing the second Ancient Array?"

"Yes, that’s right."

Bai Yaosha’s heart gave a jolt.

Her sister knew?

Did she send this message because she found something out?

"Hehe, sis, so you two..."

Bai Yaoyin’s tone held a deeper meaning.

Bai Yaosha fell silent, not knowing how to answer right away.

Instinctively she wanted to deny it, but didn’t want to lie to her sister either.

"Sis, are you okay?"

"Can you still talk?"

Bai Yaosha was about to reply, but at those words, her cheeks instantly flushed.

"O-of course I can talk!"

Bai Yaosha, wanting to prove herself, tried to make her voice sound perfectly steady.

"Eh, sis, how come you don’t sound hoarse at all?"

Bai Yaoyin sounded curious.

As Qin Yu’s Dao Companion, she certainly knew all sorts of strange trivia.

"Hoarse? Why would I sound hoarse?"

Bai Yaosha was stunned, utterly confused.

It was just a kiss, right?

Even if it lasted a while, it wasn’t anywhere near as extreme as her sister implied, right?

"Sis, you didn’t help Husband?"

"Help him?"

"That is..."

The things that came through the Sound Transmission Stone next left Bai Yaosha dumbfounded.

Heavens!

What is my sister saying!

Bai Yaosha felt as if her own mind had become dirty.

Wait a minute.

When Qin Yu suddenly stood in front of her last night, was it actually as her sister said—he wanted her to help him?

This is just...

"Sis, from now on, us sisters can finally be together."

At these words, Bai Yaosha just felt weird, wanting to retort but not knowing how to begin.

Yet Bai Yaoyin seemed to know her inner reserve, not only completely unbothered, but delighted, even taking the initiative to teach her some new knowledge.

Bai Yaosha mostly just listened. She thought she’d learned enough already, but after hearing what her sister said, she realized what she’d understood was far too shallow.

So, this kind of cultivation isn’t as simple as she thought; there’s so much new knowledge still to learn.

The only thing that made her relax was that, through the Communication Stone, she could tell her sister didn’t mind in the least; in fact... she seemed to look forward to their return.

At the thought of what scenes she might have to face after returning, Bai Yaosha still found it hard to accept, so she deliberately tried to change the topic before her sister went on too long.

"Sis, how’s the situation at the Ten-Thousand Mountain Ruins?"

"No new updates for now, but my Carefree Pavilion sent two Foundation Establishment Realm Guest Ministers in, so they won’t come back empty-handed."

Mentioning proper business, Bai Yaoyin’s tone finally turned serious.

"After all this time, no one’s secured the inheritance inside yet?"

Bai Yaosha was a bit surprised.

A legacy left by someone below Half-Venerable level shouldn’t be this difficult, right?

"Mm, there’s news now that it might actually be a legacy left by a Half-Venerable."

Bai Yaoyin’s voice was grave.

It was clear that this whole matter had been giving her a headache lately.
