After the main character who took the blame retired, the female lead quit.

Bai Yan is a good kid and always listens to him, so Xiao Yu has nothing to worry about in that respect.

only……

He turned to look at his house, now reduced to ashes. Where would he sleep tonight?

Chapter Four, Something Big Has Happened

That night.

The night sky was filled with stars, cloudless and dazzling, it was simply... well, Xiao Yu couldn't keep up the story. There wasn't a single star tonight, and there was even a lunar eclipse, making the night even darker than usual.

Peng!

A flicker of light leaped out from the darkness, casting a ray of light. Bai Yan finally found the candles that had been put away in the room and lit them.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu's eyes lit up. Looking at the house, he stood at the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped inside.

With nowhere to sleep, he had no choice but to spend the night in his apprentice's room.

Bai Yan's house was just a bamboo house, which Xiao Yu made for her himself using materials found on the spot. After all, Dazhu Sword Peak... Dazhu Sword Peak, as the name suggests, is full of bamboo, and its shape is sharp, like a sword pointing to the sky.

The peak of Dazhu Sword Peak is not large, facing the distant Linghu Peak. The peak is home to a special spiritual plant called Snow Ink Sword Bamboo. Snow Ink Sword Bamboo is tall and straight, with a color gradient from snow ink to silver white from the root to the top. Its surface is moist and smooth, and it also has an extraordinary spiritual aura.

Therefore, due to its exceptional spiritual properties, it is often used as a raw material for wooden swords used by sect disciples during training, and is the main source of income for Xiao Yu and his apprentice on this Demon Gathering Island.

Upon entering the room, a simple and unpretentious atmosphere immediately greeted the eye. Unlike the other women's rooms, Bai Yan's room had very little decoration. Apart from a bed, a table, and a cabinet against the wall, there were no other items.

He has the style of Bai Yan.

While Xiao Yu nodded to himself, he also began to worry about her future. Being without feelings was not a good thing, but there was no cure at the moment, so he could only take it one step at a time.

Anyway, he's retired now, so he'll have plenty of time to spend with Bai Yan in the future.

Thinking it over, Xiao Yu skillfully took out a set of bedding from the cabinet against the wall and spread it on the floor, preparing to make do with sleeping on the floor for the night.

Tomorrow I can go find those brothers on Shenji Peak and commission them to build a bamboo house. It's better to find professionals to do professional things. At the speed of the craftsmen cultivators, it should only take a day to build an ordinary bamboo house.

揪~

While he was thinking, Bai Yan, who was watching Xiao Yu sleep on the floor, suddenly tugged at Xiao Yu's sleeve.

"Hmm? Xiao Yan, what's wrong?" Xiao Yu thought something was wrong, so he turned around and asked with concern.

Bai Yan stretched out his slender white finger and pointed to the bed not far away, saying succinctly, "The bed... together... the floor is cold."

Bai Yan is naturally aloof and taciturn. He doesn't talk much on ordinary days, and he only speaks a few words when he is facing Xiao Yu. However, he usually succinctly shortens his sentences to just a few words, which is quite concise and saves time.

Having lived together for many years, Xiao Yu naturally knew what she meant; it was simply: "My bed is quite big, we can sleep together."

sleep together?

Looking at the sleepy woman in front of him, who was already yawning, Xiao Yu decisively chose to refuse:

"No, men and women shouldn't touch each other. It's only for one night, Master... sigh!"

But before he could finish speaking, Bai Yan grabbed Xiao Yu's arm and pulled him toward the bed without giving him a chance to react.

"Wait, wait... Holy crap, how did this girl become so strong?"

Although Bai Yan is Xiao Yu's disciple, Xiao Yu, as the master, has never taught Bai Yan any cultivation techniques, making the term "master and disciple" somewhat undeserving.

The reason is simple. It's not that Xiao Yu was unwilling to teach, but that Bai Yan was born with a body that was envied by the heavens. She had no spiritual roots and could not cultivate. To put it bluntly, she had a useless physique and couldn't even become a martial artist, which was the most common and had no threshold.

Although Li Yunshang couldn't cultivate before, as one of the female leads, how could she be so simple? She was the legendary Nine Spirits Absolute Aperture Body, the type that accumulates strength and then unleashes it. With the guidance of special spiritual objects, she could successfully embark on the path of cultivation. She was completely different from Bai Yan, who couldn't cultivate at all.

Therefore, Xiao Yu, who was being pulled away by Bai Yan and dared not break free for a moment, was a little surprised. This strength could not be said to be too strong, but it was definitely much greater than that of an ordinary person who had not cultivated.

As a cultivator, Xiao Yu couldn't easily use his spiritual power, lest he hurt her. Xiao Yan was also stubborn; once she made up her mind about something, she would do it even at the cost of her life, which was very much like Xiao Yu.

But right now... sigh!

Helpless, Xiao Yu had no choice but to go along with Bai Yan's idea. He thought to himself: his parents hadn't been back for a long time, and the child wanted to be closer to them and sleep together. What was wrong with that?

"Okay, I'll sleep in the bed tonight. Let go of me first, I'll tidy up the bedding, it'll get damp if I leave it on the floor overnight."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan released his grip on Xiao Yu's arm.

…………

who am I?

where am I?

This smells so good! Wait… ptooey! What am I supposed to do?

At night, in Bai Yan's room, Xiao Yu lay on the bed, smelling the faint fragrance emanating from the woman beside him, and fell into deep thought.

He originally thought that sleeping in the same bed with a girl might be too much for him, as a virgin in two lifetimes, but it shouldn't be a problem if it were Bai Yan. After all, he had even seen her in her naked state, and he was used to it when he bathed her, even though she was very young at the time.

But now... he realizes he has seriously overestimated himself.

I simply can't sleep!

Imagine a young, slender, beautiful, and slightly adorable girl lying next to you at night, and you can even smell her faint fragrance.

Are you able to sleep?

How can you sleep at your age!

Sure enough... the kids have grown up!

Xiao Yu sighed inwardly, then closed his eyes and silently counted sheep, hoping to fall asleep.

However, the sleep aids that had previously been ineffective had no effect this time.

Because Bai Yan rolled over and pinned him down.

?

Feeling the soft warmth that almost sank into his arm, Xiao Yu opened his eyes and found a pair of gray-blue eyes silently staring at him. In the dim light, the woman was wearing a thin gauze dress, and his snow-white skin could be vaguely seen under the dress. She looked fragrant and soft.

Xiao Yu's breathing almost stopped for a few seconds at that moment.

"Can't sleep again?" He turned his head to look at the night view outside the window and said. Bai Yan had a habit of insomnia since childhood, and Xiao Yu would usually tell him stories and coax him to sleep for a long time.

Bai Yan nodded, and then nudged Xiao Yu's shoulder a few times with his chin.

"Ahem, alright, then let Master tell you the story of Snow White! Long, long ago..." Xiao Yu coughed a few times, and just as he opened his mouth, he saw Bai Yan shake his head. His leaden black hair, carrying a delicate fragrance, brushed against his nose, making Xiao Yu feel ticklish. He even wanted to ask what kind of shampoo Bai Yan used? It smelled so good.

"That...Cinderella?"

Bai Yan shook his head.

"That...Prince Charming?"

Click~

This time, Bai Yan didn't shake her head again. Instead, she leaned in and gently bit Xiao Yu's shoulder. The girl's pearly teeth bit lightly, as if grinding her teeth. Warm saliva seeped through the fabric and onto her skin, carrying a heat.

This is Bai Yan's usual way of expressing dissatisfaction. If this continues, the next thing he'll do is chokehold and takedown.

Xiao Yu had no choice but to turn his head back and look at the unruly disciple beside him.

Just then, she opened her mouth, and beneath her white teeth, her pink and moist tongue flashed by.

"What are you doing outside?" she asked, her voice ethereal and elusive.

This means you have to talk about things outside!

Xiao Yu understood. He thought for a moment and said, "Master's affairs outside are nothing much, just doing some things for others. It's quite boring. How about Master tells you a story? It should be a novel, and the protagonist is named Ye Feng, he..."

Bai Yan wrapped his arm around Xiao Yu's neck, feeling the smooth, delicate touch on his neck. Xiao Yu quickly said, "Okay, okay... I know you want to hear what I have to say, I'll tell you, alright?"

Bai Yan then released his arm.

Helpless, Xiao Yu had no choice but to recount to Bai Yan his experiences of taking the lead role for the past few years, like telling a story.

After saying that, seeing that Bai Yan was still not sleepy, he told her the plot of the novel as a story.

This time, Bai Yan didn't refuse. She looked at Xiao Yu quietly with her beautiful eyes, listening to his story. A strange light flashed in her calm eyes.

Before I knew it, it was late at night.

With Xiao Yu's conscious coaxing, Bai Yan closed his eyes and fell asleep. He glanced at him to make sure he was sound asleep, then prepared to get out of bed and sleep somewhere else.

After all, the child is older and it's really not suitable for them to sleep together anymore. However, Bai Yan held on very tightly, clinging to Xiao Yu like a koala.

Helpless, Xiao Yu had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​getting out of bed. After struggling for a while, he fell into deep thought, smelling the faint fragrance emanating from the girl beside him.

His sleeping posture and habits are still the same as when he was a child!

In this respect, nothing has changed much.

To be honest, I owe Xiaoyan a lot.

Having been away for so many years, I almost missed the most beautiful period of a girl's life.

Xiao Yan cannot cultivate immortality; he is a mortal with a lifespan of only one hundred years.

In the days to come, he really should spend more time with her!

For no apparent reason, Xiao Yu thought of a saying: Don't let waiting become a regret!

Amidst the faint fragrance, Xiao Yu drifted off to sleep, lost in thought.

Almost at the same moment Xiao Yu closed his eyes, Bai Yan, who had been asleep, opened her eyes. Her eyes were clear and she was full of energy, showing no signs of having been asleep just moments before.

Looking at the man in front of him who was painstakingly coaxing him to sleep, Bai Yan's gray-blue eyes brightened slightly, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky—a fleeting but dazzling sight.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, the woman quietly leaned forward in the darkness and pressed her lips to the man's ear. Her cherry lips parted, and her breath was sweet as orchids. She whispered, "Welcome back... Master."

Xiao Yu was sleeping soundly for some reason and was not awakened by the woman's little movements.

Silent all night.

The next day, Xiao Yu, who had slept until noon, woke up and looked at Bai Yan, who was sleeping soundly in his arms. He realized a serious problem: if he asked the people of Jinshifeng to build the bamboo house, could it still be completed before dark that night?

The answer is undoubtedly no.

Then tonight...

Sleep with Bai Yan again for another night?

Thinking back to that agonizing night, and the slightly numb arm that Bai Yan had been using as a pillow for.
