Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

"How did you know?!"

Wangshu blinked her innocent blue eyes, "I saw it right before I fainted."

Only then did the Third Elder show surprise in her eyes. No wonder You Su, a man, would appear in Qianhua Venerable’s private chambers...

I was just talking about capturing evil, why would it be brought to the boudoir?!

"What else did she do?"

"Imitated a puppy barking, imitated a puppy peeing, imitated a puppy..."

"Enough!"

The Third Elder’s chest heaved violently, the buttons on the side of her cheongsam strained, as if about to burst at any moment.

"Did you see all this with your own eyes?!"

"Yes."

Wangshu nodded honestly. She couldn’t reveal her junior brother’s strange Evil Power, but this much should be okay to say, right?

She could sense the Third Elder’s hostility towards Qianhua Venerable. Her intention was to tell the Third Elder that even someone like Qianhua Venerable, whom you couldn’t do anything against, could be subdued by her junior brother, showcasing You Su’s formidable skills, hoping to change the Third Elder’s opinion of her junior brother while also calming her down.

But why did it seem like the Third Elder was getting... more and more angry?

"Third Elder, our junior brother has already helped us out. You shouldn’t bother with Qianhua Venerable anymore."

"Helped us out?"

The Third Elder’s body was trembling lightly, her fists tightly clenched.

The gaze she cast at the young girl was filled with the same pity as when she looked at Ji Lingruo.

If it was You Su forcing Qianhua Venerable to act this way, then that would truly be helping out.

But she knew better than anyone that Qianhua Venerable, a woman so proud, couldn’t possibly be forced to do something so humiliating. Unless this woman was interested in the handsome You Su and took the initiative to seduce him...

So this wasn’t helping out at all, this was being seduced and manipulated in return!

She must have also realized the invaluable worth of You Su, which is why she was willing to pay such a price...

So her target wasn’t little Wangshu at all, but You Su!

The Third Elder’s chest felt like it was suffocating, as if she was drowning in regret.

How could You Su, a young novice, possibly resist the allure of a Female Immortal who is far superior in both cultivation and status?

It’s like a poor lad from the countryside being suddenly catered to by the most wealthy and powerful woman in the capital. Who could resist that?

Once You Su gets won over by her, she would squeeze every last drop of value from him!

This woman, she’s rotten to the core!

"Third Elder, is your heart bothering you?"

Wangshu was having a hard time discerning the emotions in the Third Elder’s heart. Why was it so complicated?

The Third Elder gently shook her head, sighing, yet still held onto a glimmer of hope for the young man:

"Did your junior brother... submit to Qianhua Venerable?"

Submit?

Wangshu looked a bit dazed. Wasn’t it Qianhua Venerable who submitted?

So the young girl shook her head.

The Third Elder’s eyes lit up a bit, like a withered tree regaining vitality, "Is your junior brother... still willing to work for Bihua Pavilion?"

"I believe in him."

"You believe?"

The Third Elder murmured, repeating the words, an inevitable trace of worry appearing on her face.

It seemed more like she was worried about losing You Su himself, rather than losing Bihua Pavilion without him.

You believe, but can I believe...

...

The observation deck at the end of the corridor outside was the highest point of this splendid city, offering a full view of its vibrant colors.

The cold morning wind howled through, making the robes of both figures flap fiercely.

"What do you want to say? Get to the point."

You Su asked coolly.

Qianhua Venerable still kept her legs tightly together, her gaze towards the young man complicated:

"No matter how you put it, you are my master now. Are you not going to help your newly acquired servant, but instead help that useless fat woman?"

You Su chuckled gracefully, "I didn’t force you to call me that this time, why call it yourself? Moreover, last night you were portraying the image of someone who would rather die than submit."

"If it can’t be reversed, I’d rather accept it calmly." Qianhua Venerable scoffed.

"Not at all, you didn’t accept it calmly."

You Su shook his head, the strands of hair on his forehead dancing messily in the wind, giving him an extraordinary air.

"You are worried that I might use power to command you, letting you fall behind in your competition with the Third Elder, even possibly forcing you to hand over the foundation of Qianhua Pavilion."

The mind-reading Qianhua Venerable bit her lip, tucking her hair behind her ear, her tone cold:

"So then, is that what you’re planning? I must tell you, Qianhua Pavilion is my bottom line. Touch my bottom line, and I will use any means. I won’t exchange lives with you easily because my life is far more valuable than yours. But when your life is added to Qianhua Pavilion, I can’t ignore it."

"Why haven’t you gotten rid of the habit of barking like a little puppy?"

You Su seemed as if he hadn’t listened to her at all, knowing full well that respecting and speaking kindly to this wicked woman was unnecessary, as she’d only turn it against you.

"Take off your outer robe."

"What do you want to do?!"

Qianhua Venerable glared vigilantly at You Su, but the pure black fur robe draped over her had already slipped smoothly to the ground, leaving her in a thin cheongsam identical to the Third Elder’s.

"Don’t forget, your senior sister is waiting to return! And that fat woman is waiting for you inside the room!"

You Su sneered, "What’s the matter, is Qianhua Venerable scared?"

He leaned onto the railing of the observation deck, taking a deep breath as he overlooked the colorful city below.

"You can see the whole city from here, so it can surely see you too..."

Hearing this, Qianhua Venerable bit her lower lip, having to admit that she was afraid.

This was entirely different from being hidden inside a room; she was the most esteemed woman in this city, how could she possibly...
