Chapter 857 281: Sister Baiyu! Into the Cavern!
In that case, if I can help save someone, then I'll do it, especially since those gorgeous legs aren't too bad at all...
Yuchi lay on the ground, hugging Qi Baiyu's ankle, his face shamelessly rubbing against her ankle like a classic groveler. Just as Ximen Baojian beside him was about to strike, he woefully said:
"Sir, please help me, my sister just fell off the edge of the cave, and I don't know who else to ask for help. You look like an important figure, please, help me, I really don't know how to get down there by myself, I'm truly helpless alone!"
What a pleasant smell, not like the sea, but more like orchids or maybe osmanthus. When you smell it, you can instantly think of what kind of blossom it is.
"Are the two of you talking about the same sister!?"
Seeing Yuchi clutching his master's ankle, Ximen Baojian was speechless, thinking to himself, "And really, such a big hole, so she could just fall in? Are they all fools?"
Standing nearby, Shen Sanfeng naturally didn't recognize Yuchi's identity. After seeing Yuchi, he sized him up for a full couple of breaths, and then truly mocked him from the heart: "This rascal really is a crazy snake-skin weirdo, what's he up to now? He looks so broke, it seems like wasting Spiritual Qi to kill him wouldn't even be worth it."
Qi Baiyu's face flushed slightly, and she helped Yuchi up: "It's alright, you got lucky. We were just about to check out the cave. We'll take you with us. Just don't hold my ankle; if others see it, they might think I'm bullying you."
"Thank you so much!"
Yuchi got up, continuously expressing his gratitude while also lost in thought.
The other party seems to be of high status, apparently some untainted young miss from the world, with naturally perfect looks. As for being not particularly bright, well, she really isn't, but does she have a bad heart? Not really, she just happens to bungle good intentions at times.
But you're lucky you ran into me, Yuchi, today; otherwise, you might be gone.
Then he ran to Shen Sanfeng's side, hugged Shen Sanfeng, and wiped his snot on his clothes, tearfully saying, "Sir, thank you! My cultivation is too low, only at the third level of the Qi Cultivation Realm. I originally came here to see if I could find some treasure, but when I jumped up to grab it, my sister fell with a splash, maybe to her death."
"But we have to find her, dead or alive, it's really such a trouble for you."
It was clear Yuchi's words had hidden meanings.
However, Shen Sanfeng at this moment saw nothing amiss. How could it just be that everyone else had no sisters when told to find his sister?
As for Yuchi and Song Bei being the same person? That he couldn't ever imagine, because someone like Song Bei, who is so composed, wouldn't roll on the ground and pretend to be crazy, would he?
Impossible, all are people with some status, can't lose face like that.
Evidently, he was mistaken.
Yuchi didn't care about such minor issues at all. Others didn't know who he was anyway; achieving his goal was all that mattered, and the means to achieve it were just a secondary consideration. Besides, Yuchi was still owed some silver and gold from Shen Sanfeng, which he'll have to reclaim later.
Making money isn't shameful.
Thus, the current situation was quite humorous. Shen Sanfeng wanted Qi Baiyu dead, Yuchi wanted Shen Sanfeng dead, Qi Baiyu wanted them both to find the sister, and there was still a Ximen Baojian being forced to venture into the abyss, truly a harmonious world full of sweet trust.
Shen Sanfeng was still very cautious.
He subtly sensed Yuchi's cultivation and confirmed that the spiritual qi on the other party was so pitifully little it put him at ease. Eh, going to have to kill one more today, really troublesome, but young man, that's just the world we live in, don't blame me. When the time comes, I'll make it quick for you.
"Let's go!" Qi Baiyu finally said.
"Sister, I'm sticking with you!"
Yuchi immediately came to Qi Baiyu's side, and to her wide-eyed shock, he directly took hold of her soft hands. When he felt her palms getting clammy with sweat, he internally remarked, "Young girls' palms are usually like that, cool and clammy, rarely dry and warm. But Qi Baiyu is still kind, which is pretty nice, so in a bit, I'll give you a hand."
Qi Baiyu was about to cry.
What's up with this boy? First, he hugs my ankle and rubs his cheek on my little foot. Doesn't he know how thin these shoes are? I could feel his warm cheek! And now he's grabbing my hands, doesn't he know touching a girl's hands can bring unfortunate luck?
Most importantly, why do you call me sister?!
Why call me sister!?
Why!
Do I look older than you? I just don't like to smile much, which makes me look mature. So why are you calling me sister? You truly are a tactless boy, had I not seen you losing your sister, I would've had my guards drive you away immediately, and punish you for your rudeness!
