Dao Companion Crippled, Coveters Move

Chapter 215 - 214: Asking Ji Xichan to Find a Residence for Yueqiu

"My, my. For someone as busy as the Pei Sword Immortal, how do you have time to visit me?"

Ji Xichan leaned against the door, a sly smile on her face as she looked at Pei Yuhang.

"I have something I need to ask you."

"The Pei Sword Immortal has something he doesn't know? And here I was, thinking you were omnipotent."

Ji Xichan had wanted to play coy for a bit, to hear how Pei Yuhang would plead with her.

But to her surprise, Pei Yuhang simply turned and walked away, showing no intention of humoring her.

"Wait! Can't you just indulge me a little? You're always so stubborn, like a damn rock!"

It wasn't often that Pei Yuhang came to her of his own volition. Ji Xichan certainly wasn't going to let him just leave. She darted in front of him, blocking his path in a huff.

Faced with the girl's scolding, Pei Yuhang said coolly, "Miss Ji, you should know why I treat you this way."

At his words, Ji Xichan fell silent, knowing full well she was in the wrong.

After all, she had been the one to coerce Yu Gu Nan and use despicable means to "defile" Pei Yuhang.

Their passionate entanglement in the Cold Spring… the memory was still vivid.

It was without a doubt a heinous act. If she hadn't lied to Pei Yuhang, telling him that she had bound Yu Gu Nan's life to her own with a curse, he probably would have wanted to kill her.

The girl lowered her head. Usually so arrogant and proud, she now found she couldn't meet Pei Yuhang's scrutinizing gaze.

But even so, she remained defiant.

"Th-That's all in the past. Aren't we a good match? Fairy Ye probably can't satisfy you… My helping her take care of you, free of charge, can be considered a good deed."

Pei Yuhang had to laugh, though it was out of sheer anger, at Ji Xichan's words.

But he hadn't expected this girl—who was practically a younger version of Shang Miaoyan—to repent for her sins anyway.

In Pei Yuhang's mind, insatiably greedy Witches like her, whose minds were clouded by lust, were a lost cause.

Pei Yuhang couldn't be bothered to waste any more words. He got straight to the point: finding a new residence for Yueqiu.

"I plan to buy a smaller residence. It needs to be close to the Cold Palace Sword Mansion, have a high concentration of Spiritual Qi nearby, and be at a high altitude so one can clearly feel the essence of the moon at night.

I'm not familiar with the Dao Sect's real estate. Can you ask your master to help me find one? Spirit Stones are not an issue."

Hearing Pei Yuhang's request, Ji Xichan was a little puzzled.

"Why are you buying a new cultivation abode? Planning to keep a mistress in a love nest? Damn it! Aren't Sister Yu and I enough for you? You're still trying to cheat on the side!"

Before Ji Xichan could finish, Pei Yuhang flicked her on the forehead, making her beautiful eyes well up with tears from the pain.

"I was just joking! Did you have to do that?!"

"I was just joking, too."

"..."

'Tch. A lady shouldn't lower herself to fight with a brute!'

Ji Xichan knew she wouldn't win this exchange, so she decided to stop talking back.

But when she saw Pei Yuhang about to leave again after stating his business, she grew anxious.

"Wait, you came all this way just to tell me this one thing?"

Ji Xichan fidgeted, her legs shifting awkwardly. It seemed she wanted to say more, but her pride held her back.

But seeing Pei Yuhang's indifferent expression, she finally swallowed her pride.

"Pei Yuhang, you haven't... loved me in so long~"

Her eyes glistening, Ji Xichan couldn't help but press herself against the White-clothed Sword Immortal before her.

She wanted her scent to rub off on him, like marking her territory to declare her ownership.

However—

"Ji Xichan, I have other things to do today. I don't have time to mess around with you."

Pei Yuhang leaped into the air. Spiritual Qi coalesced into a Flying Sword beneath his feet, and he vanished in the blink of an eye.

He came in a hurry and left in a hurry, not taking a single cloud with him.

"...B-Bastard!"

"You ask me to do something for you, but you won't even give me a taste? You only take and never give! You could have at least placated me a little, you asshole!!"

Watching Pei Yuhang depart, Ji Xichan was both aggrieved and furious. In the end, all she could do was stomp her feet in anger like a pathetic, defeated mutt.

She swore she would get him back for this sooner or later!

...

...

Pei Yuhang really did have important business to attend to; he wasn't lying to Ji Xichan about that.

He needed to find Shang Miaoyan and ask for a way to solve his Dao Companion's premature... issue.

With the Yin Yang Sacred Land's profound knowledge in *that* area, Pei Yuhang believed Shang Miaoyan would surely have a way to help his Dao Companion regain her feminine vigor!

The White-clothed Sword Immortal used Sword Control to fly to the front of the Yin Yang Sacred Land's ambassadorial palace within the Dao Sect. An elegant Female Cultivator in purple robes had been waiting there for some time.

"Young Master Pei, it's a rare occasion for you to request a meeting with the Holy Daughter. The Holy Daughter hasn't been this happy in a very long time."

Fan Ya stepped forward to greet him with a gentle smile.

As usual, Pei Yuhang's expression remained unchanged upon seeing her, as cold and distant as ice.

Fan Ya knew he was still holding a grudge over what happened with her sister, so when Pei Yuhang ignored her, she didn't say anything more.

As the Holy Daughter's personal Maid and loyal confidante, her only duty was to dutifully escort Pei Sword Immortal to the Saintess' Bedroom.

...

...

「A few minutes earlier, in the Saintess' Bedroom.」

The beautiful nun hanging in the air finally managed to gather her scattered consciousness amidst Shang Miaoyan's delighted laughter.

Her eyes, which had rolled back in her head, refocused. The memory of the night's torture filled her with lingering fear.

"Shang Miaoyan! The Elder Hall will not let you get away with humiliating me like this! Even the Sect Leader wouldn't allow you to so wantonly torture a Divinity Transformation Stage Great Cultivator of our own sect!"

Her hoarse, furious accusation made Shang Miaoyan frown slightly.

'She's still this spirited?'

'Just half an hour ago, she was convulsing like a witless fool. I thought she was broken.'

Shang Miaoyan's voice was like a cold wind blowing into Chen Shishi's ears, awakening the nightmarish memories and making her whole body tense up.

She knew that if this continued, even a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator with a will of steel like herself wouldn't be able to hold on!

"Shh, Holy Daughter, let's make a truce."

"If you just let me go, I promise I'll act as if tonight never happened. Your relationship with the Elder Hall must be poor. From now on, I, Shishi, will serve you with utmost loyalty and infiltrate the Elder Hall for you... Mmph!"

A length of Red Ling Silk with a wooden ball wrapped in it suddenly shot out, gagging Chen Shishi.

With the wooden ball in her mouth and the Red Ling Silk binding it in place, Chen Shishi couldn't make a sound, only helpless, muffled whimpers.

"Get lost for now. We'll talk about other things later. Now, I need to get myself ready to welcome my beloved."

After speaking, Shang Miaoyan opened a hidden door in the bedroom that led to a basement. She then directed the Red Ling Silk, which moved like a tentacle, to drag the struggling, squirming Chen Shishi inside.

'Finally, some peace and quiet... First, I'll clean the room. When Xiaohan comes to a girl's room, I have to make a good impression~!'
