One of my fairy-like friends

True strength lies in human endurance, which is why the Supreme Elder has a lifespan of around two thousand years. However, the remaining four hundred years, while seemingly long, are also quite short. For cultivators, time indeed passes much faster than for mortals...

Yue Wuxia glanced at Ming Yan, then turned her head and said, "Then I'll leave Feng Lingyueying to my uncle."

"Okay, you can go." Even when talking about life and death, Yue Qingyou's face showed no ripples. Thinking that someone as important as her master would have to leave him helplessly four hundred years later, Mingyan pursed his lips. He actually had an idea in his heart, but should he put this idea into action?

Mingyan sighed inwardly and transmitted his voice to Wang Qingchu in the Qi Sea World, only to hear Wang Qingchu say, "Yan'er, just do whatever comes to mind."

“…” Mingyan was taken aback, then realized that his sister had probably seen through his thoughts. He sighed inwardly, “I don’t have any special feelings for the Supreme Elder. I shouldn’t do this for such a reason.”

In order to extend the life of the Supreme Elder, and then have a relationship with the Supreme Elder, wouldn't Master be happy if he found out?

"Could it be that Ning Mengru fell in love with you from the very beginning? And you fell in love with Ning Mengru from the very beginning?" Wang Qingchu laughed and said, "Following your heart, Yan'er."

Mingyan remained silent for a while, then looked at Yue Qingyou again, his eyes gradually clearing.

Mingyan didn't know what his master was thinking, but... he didn't want to see the Supreme Elder pass away like this...

Currently, they are still under the suppression of the Great Dao. Unless one possesses truly extraordinary talent, it is unlikely that they can break through to the Saint realm normally...

Neither Master nor Junior Sister would want to see the Supreme Elder die, right?

Mingyan made up his mind to help the Supreme Elder.

Chapter 172 Yue Qingying's Vision

After the Supreme Elder left, Yue Wuxia turned her head to look at Ming Yan, paused briefly, and then said, "Let's set off."

Mingyan nodded, then let his sister come out of his Qi Sea World. Wang Qingchu was not one to waste words, so after they came out, she immediately pulled the two of them back to the Huang family.

More than twenty days have passed since I returned to Fenglingyueying, and then went to the Holy Yuan Dynasty and later returned to Fenglingyueying again during that absurd week.

During this time, Yue Qingying and Huang Feiyan were best friends. Yue Qingying had visited the Huang family many times before. Although they had some minor disagreements on the issue of Mingyan, they both said afterwards that they would not leave Mingyan. So even now, although they may still have some minor disagreements, their relationship has returned to what it was before.

For this reason, Yue Qingying didn't feel uncomfortable staying at the Huang family, except that she missed Ming Yan a little.

Upon returning to the Huang family, Yue Wuxia didn't waste any time and quickly summoned Yue Qingying. Ming Yan naturally had to be present as well; the three of them, master and disciple, would essentially have a confrontation...

Of course, in Yue Wuxia's mind, this was a confrontation, but in Mingyan's mind, his senior sister was probably overjoyed to know that he had already won over their master...

Yue Wuxia and Mingyan waited for Yue Qingying in Mingyan's room. She was cultivating in her room and didn't even notice that her master and Mingyan had returned.

In fact, after learning that Yue Wuxia had also left quietly, Yue Qingying couldn't help but have some guesses in her heart.

Although her master had never seemed to like her accompanying her junior brother before, this time, apart from her junior brother's sister Wang Qingchu, her master and junior brother seemed to be traveling alone, and there should be quite a bit of progress between them.

Of course, in Yue Qingying's opinion, the two probably didn't end up together, and her master might not be able to face his true feelings so easily.

However, this shows that Yue Qingying underestimated her junior brother.

When Yue Qingying arrived at the room, she saw her master, Yue Wuxia, sitting in a high position, while Mingyan stood to the side. She subconsciously transmitted her voice and asked, "Junior brother, Master summoned me here...is something wrong?"

“Let Master tell you himself,” Mingyan replied.

Hearing Mingyan say this, Yue Qingying stopped asking questions and instead turned her gaze to Yue Wuxia.

Yue Wuxia sat in the high position, looking down at Yue Qingying. Even though she had thought it through, it was best not to hide this matter from Yue Qingying. However, it was not easy to say it out loud.

In Yue Wuxia's view, no matter how she explained herself, Yue Qingying would probably think she was very selfish...

Perhaps... I really am selfish? If I ask myself honestly, when I consciously refused to let Yue Qingying go out with Mingyan, did I really not want to see Yue Qingying and Mingyan's relationship become closer?

Yue Wuxia was somewhat confused; she herself didn't know the answer.

It is very difficult for people to fully understand themselves....

"Qingying." Yue Wuxia came back to her senses. Some things had to be faced eventually. Since she had decided to be with that traitor, she had thought about these things long ago. No matter how Yue Qingying viewed her, she should bear it.

"Master?" Yue Qingying blinked, her eyes filled with curiosity. She wondered what Yue Wuxia wanted to say and why her junior brother was acting so mysteriously.

"...Mingyan and I..." Yue Wuxia paused briefly, her gaze involuntarily shifting downwards, but quickly she raised her head again, her eyes gradually settling down, "Mingyan and I have already consummated our marriage, and I feel it's necessary to tell you about this."

In fact, when Yue Wuxia Bian uttered the words "Mingyan and I," Yue Qingying's mouth opened slightly, and she subconsciously turned her gaze to Mingyan. Because she heard her master speak of her relationship with Mingyan in such a solemn manner, coupled with the possibility that her master and junior brother had been alone together before, there was only one thing she could think of.

After Yue Wuxia finished speaking, Yue Qingying was even more excited. Her junior brother had actually managed to win over their master?!

Isn't this a bit too fast?

So it seems that Master did indeed have some affection for Junior Brother?

Seeing the surprise on Yue Qingying's face, Yue Wuxia remained silent, waiting for Yue Qingying's further reaction. She observed Yue Qingying and knew that even if Yue Qingying had a problem with her, based on her understanding of Yue Qingying, Yue Qingying probably wouldn't show it. Therefore, she could only start by observing her expression and demeanor.

After Yue Qingying's initial surprise, to Yue Wuxia's surprise, she laughed...?

Yue Qingying understood Yue Wuxia. She knew that her master was telling her directly about her relationship with her junior brother at this moment—wasn't it to prevent her from overthinking things if she found out on her own? She was worried that Yue Qingying would have objections to her relationship with her junior brother...

“I know what Master is worried about. I have no objection to the relationship between Junior Brother and Master. On the contrary, I am very happy.” Yue Qingying smiled. She glanced at Ming Yan and continued, “Now our master and disciple... are finally closer and our relationship is more intimate. Isn’t that a good thing?”

Yue Wuxia looked at Yue Qingying, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. She hesitated twice before lowering her head and sighing inwardly.

Unexpectedly, Qingying seemed completely indifferent to her relationship with Mingyan? No, it wasn't entirely indifferent; she even seemed quite happy...

Yue Wuxia couldn't help but find it somewhat laughable that she had been so worried about Yue Qingying's possible opinions about her relationship with Mingyan, or even the possibility of uncontrollable conflicts arising from it...

As a master, he doesn't even have the same vision as his own disciple...

Mingyan is a very possessive man, so Yue Wuxia is a very possessive woman.

It was already evident in that dream that concerned so many people back then.

If Mingyan and Yue Ningshuang from the dream hadn't cleverly resolved that problem, and hadn't also profoundly affected Yue Wuxia after she regained her memories, Yue Wuxia would probably still be as stubborn as she was in the dream.

Although things are much better now, and she can somewhat ignore Mingyan's philandering, she still feels that it would be better if Mingyan only had her by his side. Yue Wuxia finds it hard to say that she hasn't completely excluded Yue Qingying, but her disciple Yue Qingying doesn't seem to mind her joining the group at all...

Chapter 173 Being Controlled by My Junior Brother

Yue Wuxia remained silent for a moment, then finally sighed softly, "If you... feel it doesn't matter, then that's fine..."

"Junior brother, why don't you go out for a bit? Let me have a chat with Master." Yue Qingying's heart stirred, and she looked at Ming Yan with a smile.

Mingyan nodded. Although he didn't know what his senior sister wanted to say to their master, he trusted Yue Qingying completely and guessed that she wanted to do some psychological work on their master.

So after he nodded, he left the room and closed the door behind him.

Seeing this, Yue Wuxia's beautiful eyes fell on Yue Qingying. She knew that Yue Qingying had something to say.

“Master.” Yue Qingying pondered for a moment and said, “Actually, I not only have no objection to what’s going on between you and your junior brother, but I’m also very happy to see you and your junior brother have the relationship you have now.”

Yue Wuxia looked at Yue Qingying, her willow-leaf eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“I know Master may have some doubts.” Yue Qingying smiled and said, “No matter what, Junior Brother already has quite a few women around him. On the Huang family side, there’s Fei Yan, Fei Yan’s second aunt, and Huang Nishang. On the Yaochi side, there’s Ning Feixuan and Yue Ningshuang… Master, this is something that cannot be ignored.”

"so what?"

"As far as I know, Yue Ningshuang seems to support Ning Feixuan's relationship with her junior brother. As for the Huang family, although Feiyan hasn't expressed her thoughts on her second aunt Huang Junyi and her cousin Huang Nishang, it seems to me that she has already accepted both of them. Before Master and Junior Brother take this step, we, Fengling Yueying, are left with only me, which is a bit overwhelming," Yue Qingying said. "If Junior Brother only had one or two 'other women' around him, I wouldn't be thinking like this. But Junior Brother has too many women around him, and they form their own faction. If they unite, they will be a great threat to us. After all... two people are definitely more than one."

"...Is this why you support me being with Mingyan?" Yue Wuxia was somewhat bewildered upon hearing this, not expecting that Yue Qingying was merely trying to win his favor...

"It's not just for that reason. Even ignoring the reasons I just mentioned, I'm still very happy to see Master and Junior Brother get together. Both Junior Brother's feelings for Master and Master's feelings for Junior Brother have been suppressed and restrained for a long time, haven't they?" Yue Qingying smiled. In the past, she might not have dared to say such things easily, such as that Master actually had feelings for Junior Brother, but judging from the speed at which their relationship developed, this situation is theoretically possible.

Otherwise, given Master's personality, it would probably take Junior Brother much longer to win him over. At least in Yue Qingying's initial thoughts, Junior Brother might have needed another year to gradually soften Master's guard... Unexpectedly, this trip went straight to the goal.

"Moreover, Master and Junior Brother have gotten together, and the three of us have become even closer, which is a good thing," Yue Qingying said with a smile. "It's not because I want Master to compete for favor with me that I support Master and Junior Brother's relationship, but because Master and I are the best allies who are on the same side. We should face others together. Master, if you don't fight for it, others will. If you remain indifferent, perhaps one day, we will become less important in Junior Brother's heart."

"Then why did you accept Huang Feiyan in the first place?" Yue Wuxia frowned. "If you hadn't accepted Huang Feiyan back then, would you have so many troubles now?"

"..." This question caused several black lines to appear on Yue Qingying's smooth, fair forehead. I...didn't I misjudge things back then? Things have already come to this...what else can I do?

"If I hadn't accepted Huang Feiyan back then, it's hard to say who Junior Brother would have given up. Besides, if Junior Brother really only had a crush on one of them, how could Master and Junior Brother have ended up in this relationship?" Yue Qingying said calmly, though she felt a little uneasy inside, but she wouldn't show it.

"...If you hadn't accepted Huang Feiyan back then, perhaps I wouldn't have been taken advantage of by that traitorous disciple..." Yue Wuxia subconsciously wanted to say, "I wouldn't have been taken advantage of by that traitorous disciple either," but she stopped herself. Being stubborn in front of Yue Qingying was useless... Besides... although Yue Wuxia still felt somewhat conflicted, she didn't regret making this decision. If that traitorous disciple had truly chosen unrequited love back then, then perhaps there really would have been no possibility between her and him...

Or... I don't want to end up in that kind of future.

"Master...you sound a little reluctant? Did your junior brother force you?" Yue Qingying's eyes flickered slightly as she tentatively asked.

"...He's just a Taiyi cultivator, how could he force me?" Yue Wuxia glanced at Yue Qingying, and finally told the truth, "...I...was willing."

Yue Qingying secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had originally planned to talk to her master on her behalf if he hadn't yet calmed down, but it seemed her junior brother had already figured out how to handle their master perfectly...

Junior brother is quite shrewd... Yue Qingying is starting to suspect that he was actually playing hard to get, deliberately making her believe she was the one who was going to be abandoned...

Of course, although Yue Qingying had this suspicion, she was unwilling to believe it. Perhaps... her junior brother was born with this talent...

“Since Master is willing, then Master should join forces with me even more.” Yue Qingying moved closer to Yue Wuxia. “There’s an old saying that goes, ‘The squeaky wheel gets the grease.’ If we don’t fight for it…”

Yue Wuxia looked at Yue Qingying, her pretty face cold and aloof, "I don't need to fight for it."

"Master! You can't be so complacent!" Yue Qingying became anxious upon hearing Yue Wuxia's words. "Although Junior Brother cares about you now, this is only now. Who knows what the future holds? Look at the Huang family: Huang Feiyan, Huang Nishang, Huang Junyi. Who knows, maybe Huang Qingfei or even Huang Junru might join them in the future. We can't be without a sense of crisis! And the same goes for Yaochi. That An Ran from the Peach Banquet, and the Holy Mother of Yaochi, Ning Mengru, aren't entirely out of the question if they join Junior Brother's... harem. If we don't join forces then, we'll truly be... all alone..."

Upon hearing Ning Mengru's name, Yue Wuxia frowned slightly. "Ning Mengru has already slept in the same bed with your junior brother."

Chapter 174 Two Rebellious Disciples

Yue Qingying paused upon hearing this, "...Huh?"

Clearly, Yue Qingying had not expected this situation, and she looked at Yue Wuxia in surprise.

Although she didn't admire Ning Mengru as much as Huang Feiyan, Ning Mengru was, after all, the Queen Mother of the West, a renowned Queen Mother of the West, the one with the highest status among all the Holy Lords. And now her master was saying... she had already slept with her junior brother?

It's not so much unbelievable as it sounds impossible!

"Yue Ningshuang is Ning Mengru." Yue Wuxia no longer hid it from Yue Qingying. There was no need to save face for Ning Mengru; she was just a rival in love.

"...Huh? Really?" Yue Qingying's pretty face showed a puzzled expression. No...?

How can Yue Ningshuang be related to Ning Mengru? Aren't they master and disciple? How can Yue Ningshuang be Ning Mengru? I can't tell at all! Their personalities are so different..., right?

But it seems there's no reason for Master to lie to me about this...

This is too bizarre... Yue Qingying couldn't help but recall that not long ago, Huang Feiyan had talked to her about Ning Mengru. She said that because of her aunt Huang Qingfei's influence, she greatly admired Ning Mengru. In the past, Ning Mengru was someone Huang Feiyan strived to emulate...

So, the person she was striving for, the senior she admired, had actually gotten together with her junior brother? And if what their master said was true, that Yue Ningshuang was Ning Mengru, then Ning Mengru hadn't just quietly gotten together with Ming Yan; she'd openly come to their doorstep to steal their man...

Yue Qingying was having trouble accepting it for a while...

"You do not believe?"

"...Of course I believe Master's words, but...I can't understand west Wangmu's thoughts...Why...why did she pretend to be someone else...and come to us..." Yue Qingying spoke very subtly, without saying why Ning Mengru disguised herself as Yue Ningshuang and went to Ming Yan to flirt.

"You ask me? How would I know? Maybe she just likes your junior brother?" Yue Wuxia shook her head.

"...Well, in that case, Master, you should join in even more... Look at those two, Ning Mengru and Ning Feixuan, if... no, they definitely will..." Yue Qingying thought for a moment, her expression becoming even more worried. "I've had some contact with Ning Feixuan recently, and her attitude towards her junior brother is practically groveling. And if the Queen Mother of the West is really as Master says, I'm afraid these two will take advantage of their master-disciple relationship to deepen their junior brother's infatuation with them..."
