Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

You Su smiled, thinking that his senior sister was still waiting for him. How could he possibly waste time on such matters?

"If the puppy wants a reward from its master, it needs to earn it through good behavior. Let’s go, no need to send us off. Keep playing till noon."

With those words, You Su swaggered off, suddenly turning back to say:

"By the way, the bird bell is not to be taken off for three days. This is an order."

Soon, the silhouette of the young boy disappeared down the corridor, leaving behind Venerable Qianhua on the viewing platform, biting her lip against the chilling wind.

Half a day of playing! Three days of wearing it!

She should detest this boy to no end, yet for some reason... an unexpected excitement arose within her, anticipating their next encounter...

It must be the power of their bond! It must be!

...

For maximum speed, the green vessel flew very high.

On a small banana leaf, three people sat squeezed together.

The Third Elder surely wouldn’t leave You Su behind alone; perhaps she might have with the old You Su, but she couldn’t be that harsh to the current You Su.

You Su could feel the vessel echoing with him, as he had traveled with it for quite some time. During that Jade Ring Pool trip, the vessel had greatly helped him.

Even though it was familiar, he truly dared not respond to the vessel’s excitement, because sitting there felt a bit like sitting on pins and needles.

His senior sister felt unwell and was lying down to rest, thus most of the leaf’s surface was reserved for her.

Meanwhile, as the Third Elder was relatively plump, once she sat down, the area occupied by her sizable hips was indeed large. You Su even felt that if he became sore and shifted slightly, he’d bump into that warm fullness beside him.

"This time when we return, you’ll go back to being planted on the tree, don’t grow two sizes bigger without permission!"

The Third Elder patted the vessel beneath her, sounding somewhat irritated.

You Su always felt she was insinuating something, awkwardly saying, "Third Elder, maybe I should ride my small flying stick back..."

"No way! I must safely take you back to the Profound Sky Sect!"

The Third Elder’s attitude was firm; she wouldn’t want to see the boy suffer because of her again.

"Then you can carry me. Venerable Chengtao managed to carry me, so you should be able to as well."

"You’re injured; don’t think about all sorts of nonsense, just sit quietly and behave."

The Third Elder shot a playful glance at You Su, though she too felt embarrassed, yet for some reason, this boy didn’t make her feel the same disgust she usually felt towards ordinary men.

"Injured? But I’m not hurt, Third Elder, I’m full of energy."

After consuming the Top-Grade Dragon Marrow Elixir, You Su’s injuries had fully healed, and the overflowing potent medicine had mostly been discharged during his time with Venerable Qianhua.

"Not hurt?" The Third Elder intentionally steered the conversation this way, "But I heard, when Wangshu took off her mask, you rescued her and your body was covered in rope marks and whip marks, one arm nearly useless?"

To confirm this, the Third Elder even met the painter friend under the guise of catching up before their journey.

These people, knowing Fairy Wangshu couldn’t take off her mask, felt they were fooled by Venerable Qianhua and angrily verified the matter with the Third Elder.

The Third Elder even bought them off with benefits, asking them not to spread wild rumors, since You Su was a good child and shouldn’t have his reputation tarnished.

You Su knew he couldn’t hide it, so he changed his words: "Indeed, that’s true, but Venerable Qianhua soon healed me."

"She did that?"

You Su hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

The Third Elder’s face instantly filled with anger, "How dare she!"

Her movements were slightly exaggerated, causing the two of them to inevitably bump on the leaf.

You Su quietly shifted forward and explained, "Venerable Qianhua did it to help me with Body Tempering."

"Body Tempering?"

The Third Elder was full of disbelief, "Why would she help you?"

But just at this moment, You Su suddenly furrowed his sword-like brows, closed his eyes, and crossed his legs, pressing tightly against the Third Elder’s rear.

The Third Elder’s face was startled, urgently inspecting You Su’s physique:

"He’s actually about to break through the Condensed Water Realm?!"
