Brother, how come you're a witch?

He would certainly be very happy to share a bed with two beautiful young women, even though he was a grown man.

If these two weren't Ye Jingqiu and Liu Baishuang...

"Could there be a plan?"

Su Yan frowned, indicating that he was naturally suspicious.

"Team leader, how is letting you resting harming you?"

The female group member poked him in the back from behind:

"You should go quickly."

"It's one thing if it's just the two of them, shouldn't you have stopped them?" Su Yan felt increasingly uneasy.

"What's there to stop? Team leader, you and Ye Jingqiu are usually so close, haven't you slept together yet?"

The female group member seemed somewhat surprised:

"Besides, you just brought Senior Sister Liu back with you in your arms. Now you're just squeezing into a tent."

"Well."

Su Yan had nothing to say.

Clearly, the satisfaction he derived from his increasingly large penis had permanently altered the female team member's mindset, making her speak of his close relationship with Ye Jingqiu and Liu Baishuang and their shared tent as if it were perfectly natural.

If a normal Xuanqing Sect disciple saw him, they would think that Su Yan was unworthy and would even want to kill him.

"Get some rest."

The female team member pulled up the tent and locked the three people inside.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, with a strange ambiguity.

Ye Jingqiu's eyes kept darting back and forth between Su Yan and the bed, signaling him to hurry up and come over.

Even Liu Baishuang moved over, widening the space between the two of them.

Something still doesn't seem right...

Su Yan was about to suggest that he could meditate and regulate his breathing when his gaze suddenly met Liu Baishuang's eyes.

The little demoness's eyes were filled with anticipation, yet also flickered with a hint of embarrassment, as if she felt her actions were inappropriate, but she still wanted it anyway, her eyes pounding like a deer's.

Su Yan recalled the 'Liu Baishuang' that had vanished in his arms.

Her childhood experiences, at least her memories before the Yanshan incident, should be exactly the same as the little demoness in front of her now.

Ultimately, she was just a child who desperately needed love, a fact clearly revealed in Liu Baishuang's confessional swordplay.

She's just putting on a brave front, but if someone sees through her true self and accepts her, she can't help but lean on them.

If it weren't for Liu Baishuang's appearance, it might have taken him much longer to realize this.

"Ugh."

Su Yan sighed softly, feeling a sense of melancholy.

If continuing down the original path will lead to negative consequences, then let's start changing it now.

Approaching and educating the little vixen may not need to be so gradual.

He took off his shoes, walked between the two of them and lay down, and Ye Jingqiu immediately covered him with a blanket.

Now everyone is covered in wounds and dust, but no one cares about anyone else. We sleep in the same bed, without any shyness between men and women, but rather with a faint excitement of surviving a disaster.

"sleep."

Su Yan decisively blew out the candle lit by the bedside.

For cultivators of all levels, sleep is a very effective way to heal, and there are even cultivation schools that specialize in studying sleep.

A good night's sleep is beneficial for recovery, which is why beds should be given to seriously injured patients.

All three understood this principle well, but two of them clearly couldn't control themselves.

Ye Jingqiu suddenly turned to the side, resting his head on Su Yan's arm, and muttered very softly:

"My ears hurt so much."

Su Yan was taken aback, and then wanted to turn around to check Ye Jingqiu's self-inflicted deafness in her ear.

This level of injury can be easily healed with spiritual power, but Little Sword Ancestor's meridians are currently weak and it is difficult to repair the wound. It would be bad if it became inflamed and infected.

But as soon as he turned around, something soft pressed against his back, and a leg pressed down on him from behind. Liu Baishuang's complaining voice followed immediately:

"The blankets have all been pulled away, it's so cold."

Su Yan stood frozen in the middle.

Ye Jingqiu silently raised her cold fingers and poked Su Yan's wrist, indicating that her ear hurt.

Liu Baishuang pressed herself tighter and tighter, as if she couldn't stand the slightest bit of cold.

"One at a time."

Su Yan said helplessly in a low voice.

He lit the candle by the bedside and used its light to look at Ye Jingqiu's ears:

"What kind of pain is it? Sharp, throbbing, or something else?"

Ye Jingqiu paused for a moment, as if carefully sensing: "...a dull ache, and a little itchy."

"It doesn't look like inflammation; it's probably repairing itself."

Su Yan parted Ye Jingqiu's small earlobe with his fingers to observe:

"Try not to press down there, and don't let anything dirty get in."

"Um."

Ye Jingqiu responded softly, and leaned against Su Yan's arm with even more confidence, so that the pressure on her ear wound would be minimized.

Su Yan's lips trembled slightly, and he asked Liu Baishuang again:

"Senior Sister Liu, how exactly are you feeling right now?"

"It's so cold, it feels like the blood in my body has turned ice-cold. I have no strength in my limbs, and I keep seeing stars," Liu Baishuang said, feigning weakness.

"He lost too much blood."

Su Yan frowned:

"Unless there is a blood-regenerating elixir, there is not much that can be done. The only thing to do is to maintain body temperature as much as possible, reduce heat loss, and maintain stable blood circulation."

"Um."

Liu Baishuang responded softly and pressed herself closer to Su Yan, who was the biggest source of heat here.

"..."

Su Yan's eyes twitched, sensing something was amiss. Although the two people's reactions and actions were reasonable, they seemed to conceal some other meaning.

"Su Yan, my ears are so itchy, rub them."

Ye Jingqiu suddenly nudged him again, her voice a little groggy, as if she was about to fall asleep.

"I can't touch your wound."

Despite saying that, Su Yan still raised his hand to rub the outer part of Little Sword Ancestor's ear.

But another slender hand was faster than him, grabbing Ye Jingqiu's ear first.

"Su Yan is also very tired. Let me massage you for him."

Liu Baishuang's hot breath hit the back of Su Yan's neck, her tone slightly cold.

"hiss."

Ye Jingqiu suddenly opened his drowsy eyes, opened his mouth and bit Liu Baishuang's wrist. The little vixen withdrew her hand in time, but Ye Jingqiu did not intend to let her go. He pounced forward past Su Yan.

Liu Baishuang was not to be outdone, and raised her hand to pat Ye Jingqiu on the head.

The battle escalated rapidly, and Ye Jingqiu reached out, trying to slap the little demoness's hand away.

"Wait a minute, don't move around if you're injured!"

"...No, are you really injured?"

Su Yan stared in disbelief as the battle between the girls intensified. Fortunately, neither of them could mobilize their spiritual power, so their fight was less like wild punches and more like cats slapping their paws.

Ye Jingqiu grabbed a strand of Liu Baishuang's loose hair, while Liu Baishuang pinched Ye Jingqiu's cheek with her fingertips. The two glared at each other, their breaths catching in their throats. Although neither of them used their spiritual power, their auras were both very strong.

Su Yan found it a headache to watch. The first battle between the Sword Ancestor and the World-Destroying Demoness was not much different from two spirit cats thrashing about in their nest.

"That's enough!"

He could no longer bear it, so he suddenly sat up and grabbed their shoulders with one hand each. Although he didn't use much force, they were both very weak at the moment, and he managed to separate them just like that.

"You two."

Su Yan's voice was squeezed out from between his teeth:

"One is a Core Formation sword cultivator, and the other is also a Core Formation sword cultivator. What kind of decorum is this? They just said they could tell what was important, and you've already forgotten in less than a quarter of an hour?"

Ye Jingqiu froze, first releasing her hand, then turning her face away, her ears turning slightly red.

Liu Baishuang also awkwardly withdrew her hand, pulled the blanket tighter, lowered her eyes and remained silent, but her lips were still stubbornly pursed.

Su Yan wanted to scold them a few more times, but looking at the two with their heads down, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

They were only nineteen years old after all. In Su Yan's original world, they would still be in college and would be at the age where they liked to play around.

Their daily cultivation of immortality and enlightenment had made them eccentric. Now that they had lost their spiritual power and were no different from ordinary people, it seemed that they were releasing the nature that should be present at their age.

"Ugh."

Su Yan's anger subsided considerably.

"After a major disaster, the sudden shift from tension to relaxation can indeed make it difficult to control certain behaviors... Xiao Ye, is there any theoretical basis for what I just said?"

"Yes, a similar viewpoint was put forward in 'On the Trauma After Exploring Secret Realms'," Ye Jingqiu nodded.

"That's right. So it's understandable for you to play around, but it's unforgivable to play around without regard for your health."

Su Yan adopted the air of an ancient sage, pointing and gesturing at them:

"To truly recognize one's mistakes, one should first apologize to the other."

Liu Baishuang raised her eyes and secretly glanced at Ye Jingqiu opposite her. The latter was also looking up at her. Their eyes met briefly in the dim light and then immediately looked away.

"……sorry."

Liu Baishuang muttered to herself:

"I shouldn't have pulled your ear just now."

Ye Jingqiu was silent for a moment, then his lips moved: "...I'm sorry, I shouldn't have bitten you."

After he finished speaking, the tent fell silent again for a short while. Su Yan looked left and then right, and the last bit of annoyance in his heart completely disappeared. Instead, he felt like laughing.

"Alright, it's good that you admit your mistakes and can correct them."

He lay back down and smoothed out the blanket to cover himself.

"Everyone, go to sleep quietly. Anyone who makes a fuss will not get any pills tomorrow."

He originally wanted to say there was no candy, but then he thought that these two girls weren't really children, so he changed his mind. In fact, whether or not there were pills was none of his business.

However, the girls seemed to understand what Su Yan meant.

Liu Baishuang immediately lay down obediently and closed her eyes. Ye Jingqiu also adjusted her posture, turning to face Su Yan, her head still gently resting against his arm.

The candle went out again.

This time, both of them behaved themselves.

Exhaustion surged up like a tide, and the weakness brought on by the pain and depletion of spiritual energy became particularly clear after relaxing.

Su Yan could feel the breathing of the two people beside him gradually becoming longer and more even.

He himself, however, was not sleepy at all.

The little vixen was acting a bit strange today. Even if it was partly due to her relaxed state of mind, her increased intimacy seemed too rapid, making it hard for Su Yan not to suspect that she had heard or seen something during the chaos.

Perhaps, but the overall strategy remains unchanged...

Su Yan also closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, just as his consciousness began to blur, he suddenly felt Liu Baishuang on his right move slightly.

Immediately afterwards, a hand reached out from under the blanket, its fingertips touching his arm. After a moment's pause, the entire palm gently covered his arm.

Su Yan did not move.

A few breaths later, Ye Jingqiu on the left also moved.

She seemed to find that bracing her arms against his wasn't secure enough, so she simply crossed one arm and placed it around his waist.

"..."

Su Yan was caught in the middle.

The two girls' body heat was transmitted through their thin clothing; one was slightly cool, and the other was warm.

Their breaths mingled and brushed against his neck and ears, carrying a sense of complete relaxation and dependence.

Su Yan stared at the blurry shadows above the tent, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

The future world-destroying enchantress, and the future ancestor of swordsmanship.

At this moment, they were just two nineteen-year-old girls, and naturally they would seek someone to lean on in their pain.

Su Yan felt his heart overflowing with warm fatherly love.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Jingqiu's icy little hand suddenly moved down, untied Su Yan's pants, and reached inside.

Su Yan's lips twitched.

You rascal, don't let my fatherly love turn sour!

But Liu Baishuang was clinging to him so tightly that she couldn't make any big movements. Before she could stop Ye Jingqiu, the little sword ancestor had already grabbed something.

Su Yan suddenly froze, all sleepiness gone.

"Ye Jingqiu!"

He lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and squeezed out three words, while simultaneously flipping his wrist and grabbing the little sword ancestor's slender wrist.

But this did not stop Ye Jingqiu's fingers from moving.

She used four fingers for support, leaving only her index finger to gently pluck at the top, sending a tingling sensation through Su Yan.

Compared to the haphazard methods used that night in Guanyu Valley, this girl's skills had improved significantly. Su Yan's breathing became heavier, and he could almost guess what kind of random books Ye Jingqiu had secretly read after returning home.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

I felt a little panicked.

Ye Jingqiu raised his eyes, his pupils shining brightly in the night:

"The book says that this is the right thing to do in this situation."

"...The books you read are even worse than I thought. Did any of them tell you that this kind of behavior is only done between couples?"

"But we did the same thing at Guanyu Valley last time."

That was an accident.

Su Yan sighed:

"You admitted it yourself."

Ye Jingqiu stopped talking, but her hands didn't stop. She even changed from pinching to gripping, and bumped the blanket repeatedly, creating bulges.

Su Yan gripped Ye Jingqiu's wrist, trying to pull her hand out of her pants.

But when this happened, the girl simply held on tightly and didn't move, and then moved gently again when Su Yan relaxed a little.

Before long, a faint floral fragrance wafted from the quilt, accompanied by the soft sound of water.

"Hmm, huh? Hah..."

Liu Baishuang frowned, her delicate nose twitched slightly, and she uttered some unintelligible mutterings, as if she was about to wake up.

Su Yan's lips twitched.

Although I'm prepared to be a bit more aggressive in getting closer to the little vixen, I don't need to be so aggressive as to let her watch me do auxiliary shooting.

Su Yan exhaled a breath of stale air and stared at Ye Jingqiu:

"Xiao Ye, what's bothering you?"

"...Liu Baishuang".

Ye Jingqiu, however, seemed to be answering a completely different question:

"She likes you."

Su Yan was taken aback, then immediately denied it.

"It's tough for her to maintain the image of a perfect senior sister, so she's more relaxed and friendly around people who know her true personality, but that's far from liking her."

"You've never even liked anyone, how do you know...?"

Ye Jingqiu muttered to himself.

Su Yan chuckled, speechless. "Did you ever have feelings for someone?"

It's hard to imagine that such a complaining question came from the mouth of the future Sword Ancestor, who was so eager to learn how to wield a sword.

"Um."

Ye Jingqiu suddenly raised her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled, and the certainty in her voice startled Su Yan.

Actually, I know about your problems back then.

She spoke softly:

"You want to ask me if I like you."
