Chen Yuze scratched his head: "After all, the female protagonist is based on you. If this story becomes popular in the future, I'm afraid that others will tarnish your reputation out of thin air, Miss Moxi."

Moxi shrugged indifferently, "As the saying goes, the innocent are innocent. We are upright and have nothing to fear.

Moxi was telling the absolute truth.

However, there was one more thing she didn't say to Chen Yuze's face.

That is--

As long as it disgusts Baihua, that's fine!

131. What kind of outrageous and lewd words are you spouting!

The bright moon rises over the mountains; we share this moment though we are far apart.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, all kinds of lanterns were hung in the Chen family courtyard early in the morning.

In the bright courtyard, Chen Yuze and the girls were lying on rocking chairs, munching on mooncakes, and admiring the big, round, white moon in the sky.

Although Chen Yuze's lifespan is now far beyond that of ordinary people in this world.

But he did not forget these traditional festivals that only ordinary people would care about.

He was a person who particularly enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, and unlike other cultivators, he did not have the unwavering belief that he had to become an immortal and prove his Dao.

He only hoped that he could live a peaceful and leisurely life like an ordinary family.

Moreover, he was surrounded by so many well-behaved and lovely girls, as round and large as the bright moon in the sky. Chen Yuze was even less willing to disrupt this peaceful daily life.

"Brother Yuze, why is your story so short and weak!"

Flipping through the draft of the storybook she had already read seven or eight times, Yuanbao puffed out her cheeks in great dissatisfaction:

"Besides, why did you have to stop right at the most exciting part? Couldn't you have finished writing it first!"

As Yuanbao complained, the other girls in the courtyard all turned their gazes from the full moon in the sky to Chen Yuze.

They understood Yuanbao's feelings so well.

You know, these past few days, they've been eagerly awaiting Chen Yuze's 'updates' every day.

But Chen Yuze only writes two chapters a day, and he writes these two chapters extremely slowly, as if he is constipated and can't even poop, which is really annoying.

"Didn't I say that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival? To keep my inspiration and thoughts flowing, should I take a day off from updating?"

Looking amusedly at the group of girls around him, whose faces were full of resentment, Chen Yuze frankly hadn't expected that his casually written story would cause such a big reaction in his own yard.

At first, Chen Yuze simply wanted to ask the girls for their thoughts after reading the book. But as the girls read on, they became completely engrossed.

If it weren't for the girls constantly urging him to update, Chen Yuze probably wouldn't even be able to write two chapters a day.

"I won't allow it!"

She clung to Chen Yuze's arm and kept twisting her body.

With her emerald-like eyes blinking, Yuanbao said with a pained expression, "Brother Yuze, if you don't update, won't you be the only one who's happy for the Mid-Autumn Festival? We can't be happy at all!"

"That's it!"

Echoing Yuanbao, the other girls also joined in condemning Chen Yuze's malicious delay in updating the story.

Finally, unable to withstand the girls' murderous gazes, Chen Yuze finished the remaining mooncake in one bite and then asked Yuanbao to go to the study to bring over paper and pen.

Following the outline in his mind, Chen Yuze, pen in hand, wrote a full ten thousand words of update under the moonlight.

"So, are you satisfied now?"

Before the girls could answer, Chen Yuze, gazing at the ten-thousand-word update, nodded in delight.

Keep in mind, that's ten thousand words! Even in the context of online novels from my previous life, that would be equivalent to five chapters.

However, just as Chen Yuze was straining his ears, ready to hear the girls' praise...

"Master, how come you finished writing this 10,000-word essay in just half an hour? Your usual 4,000-word essay takes you a whole afternoon?"

"Exactly, Chen Yuze, you wouldn't be deliberately keeping us in suspense by writing this slowly, would you?"

"Young master, although I... although I enjoy punishment games, using deliberately not updating as a form of punishment is far too cruel!"

"hiss……"

Hearing the girls' incessant complaints, Chen Yuze thought to himself, "I'm doomed."

The girls were right; he did indeed write slowly on purpose.

The purpose was simply to slack off.

As a result of his momentary pride, he inadvertently revealed his true typing speed.

"Um, would you believe me if I said I just had a lot of inspiration earlier?" Chen Yuze decided to try again.

Unfortunately, nobody bought into his act.

First and foremost,

It's Yuanbao, the girl.

"Brother Yuze, if you keep doing this, I'm never wearing stockings in front of you again!"

"I think the ladies could pull their collars up a bit higher."

"The slit in the skirt needs to be lower; maybe we should start wearing pants tomorrow."

"I second that."

"I second that."

"I second that."

"..." Chen Yuze felt like he was about to crack open.

You're a perfectly normal group of girls, what kind of indecent things are you spouting!

"Higher collar, lower slit," you say. Is that what a proper young lady should say?

Especially the gold ingots!

What does it mean to never wear stockings again!

Not wearing stockings on your fleshy legs is like eating dumplings without vinegar – it's a complete waste of resources, okay?

You know, not every girl can wear stockings with that perfect, tight-fitting effect!

However, just as Chen Yuze decided to compromise and become a ruthless word-coding machine for the sake of his future happiness...

"Dr. Chen!"

Accompanied by a slightly anxious shout, a pretty girl who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with a braid tied behind her head, appeared in the sky above the Chen family's courtyard.

"Wenwen?"

Clearly, Chen Yuze's family was no stranger to the girl.

And she was none other than the granddaughter of the Sparrow Elder. It was she who helped deliver the letter that Daji wrote to Bao Si to Qingqiu.

Looking at the girl in the sky, Chen Yuze chuckled and picked up a lava mooncake from the table: "Want to come down and have some mooncakes with me?"

"Mooncakes made by Doctor Chen!?"

Because of her pleasing appearance, Wenwen often got a lot of benefits from Chen Yuze.

The thought that mooncakes might also have the effect of enhancing cultivation made Wenwen's eyes burn with desire.

However, remembering that she had important matters to attend to, she quickly suppressed her excitement. After landing, she took a letter from her pouch and handed it to Yuanbao.

"Sister Yuanbao, this was given to me by a big monster with a lion's head when I passed by Lion Camel Ridge a few days ago. He also repeatedly told me to give it to you personally."

"A letter from Brother Fugui?"

He raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Although Yuanbao had long guessed that her two older brothers should have known her whereabouts by now.

To her surprise, instead of causing trouble at their door, they sent her a letter.

"I wonder what those two old men are up to this time."

Yuanbao smiled slightly at Wenwen, who had delivered the letter, and then immediately opened the envelope.

The letter contained only a drawing of a black crow with three legs.

But this simple painting caused Yuanbao's expression to change drastically!

132. The Secret of the Gold Ingot

Upon seeing the letter from Lion Camel Ridge, Yuanbao's rosy cheeks turned deathly pale.

Her hands, holding the letter, trembled slightly, and her twin ponytails drooped limply at the back of her head.

"Yuanbao?"

Sensing that something seemed off about the girl, Chen Yuze quickly asked, "Is it Lion Camel Ridge? What happened?"

"no……"

He shook his head, his face pale.

Not wanting to involve Chen Yuze and her sisters in her family affairs, Yuanbao instinctively tried to hide the letter in her hand.

Before she could even fold the letter, Chi Lian snatched it away from behind.

It is certainly impolite to read someone else's emails without their permission.

But seeing Yuanbao's completely bewildered state, Chilian obviously couldn't care less about that anymore.

However, after opening the letter, Chi Lian was immediately baffled by its contents.

The letter contained only a drawing of a black crow with three legs.

There was no other information besides that.

"This is... a three-legged golden crow?"

In the end, it was the knowledgeable Bai Hua who recognized what the painting actually depicted.

“A three-legged golden crow? I remember that this clan began to decline gradually tens of thousands of years ago, right?” Frowning, Moxi looked at Yuanbao with the same confusion: “Besides, Yuanbao, aren’t you the Great Roc with Golden Wings? What does this three-legged golden crow have to do with you?”
