Chapter 38: A Sword Duel
Chu Xianning stood up.
Her body swayed slightly. The spirit wine Jiang Huai brewed wasn’t very strong; it was just that Chu Xianning had a low tolerance for alcohol. Of course, with her cultivation, dispelling the effects of the alcohol would take but a moment, but if she did that, what would be the point of drinking?
Jiang Huai, concerned, followed Chu Xianning closely, watching as she pushed open the door to her room and lay down on the bed. He grabbed the blanket and gently covered her body. Chu Xianning soon closed her eyes.
“Master?”
Jiang Huai called out, but there was no response.
“Master…?”
Jiang Huai called again, the wicked thoughts in his heart beginning to grow.
Chu Xianning still had her eyes closed, as if asleep, but her lips were slightly parted, as if inviting Jiang Huai to do something bad.
A “ding” sounded in Jiang Huai’s ear.
【Master Chu Xianning has especially complex feelings for you. Initially, she treated you as her own, but as you grew older, your filial affection for her changed. How could the astute Chu Xianning not notice this? But since you are master and disciple, almost like mother and son, Chu Xianning prepared a marriage for you with Luo Qingyu in her confusion, thinking it would sever your thoughts for her, yet now that your cultivation is gone, the marriage arrangement is canceled as well.】
【Granny Jiuyou’s prescription still troubles Chu Xianning, who is unsure whether she should dual cultivate with you to heal your injuries. She thought about committing suicide on the spot after dual cultivating with you, but then worried that you would feel guilty, making her even more anxious.】
