Chapter 3: You Dared to Have Impure Thoughts About Your Senior Sisters, and Now Even Your Master…
“No! You are the sect master of the Heavenly Fiend Sect. You set the rules yourself. How could you even think of crossing this line? Aren’t you ashamed, Luo Jiuyan?”
She cursed herself inwardly.
Her face flushed red, and she lowered her head, only to see Ye Shu looking at her curiously.
Damn it! Did I just make a fool of myself?
Realizing her lapse in composure, she slowly stood up and turned her back to him.
Just so he wouldn’t notice anything unusual.
A perfectly sculpted back came into Ye Shu’s view.
Ye Shu stared at this jade-like back, feeling like he could devour two bowls of rice just by looking at it.
But after a couple of glances, he quickly lowered his head.
This was a top-tier demoness who killed without batting an eye!
Even though she was his master, figures like her were often unpredictable.
She could easily devour a couple of disciples without a second thought.
Luo Jiuyan’s calm voice came through, “You do have a high level of awareness. You know what you did was wrong, and I can understand the guilt in your heart.”
“Mhm, mhm.”
Ye Shu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. “Master, please let me leave the sect. I no longer have the face to stay here and face my senior sisters.”
Luo Jiuyan pondered for a long time before letting out a soft sigh. “My dear disciple, this isn’t your fault. It’s the work of an inner demon. Why are you so fixated on this?”
“But if I can’t control myself and end up committing a grave mistake, it’ll be too late!” Ye Shu stood up, his emotions surging.
He thought to himself, Why can’t she understand? I really want to leave!
“You…”
Luo Jiuyan’s starry eyes were filled with worry. She slowly closed them and clasped her hands behind her back. “It seems the inner demon has taken a severe toll on you.”
She waved her hand, signaling him to come closer. “Come here. Let me examine you. I want to see just how terrifying this inner demon is that it’s causing you so much distress.”
“Uh…” Ye Shu felt as if he’d been struck by lightning, frozen in place.
He regretted his earlier words. The woman before him was the number one demoness in the world. Dealing with demonic influences was her specialty.
If she examined him and found out there was no inner demon, just his made-up story, he’d be in deep trouble.
Deceiving one’s master was a crime he couldn’t escape.
“Hmm? What’s wrong? Do you doubt my abilities?”
Luo Jiuyan’s willow-like brows furrowed, displeased that Ye Shu was hesitating. “When your eldest senior sister was trapped by an inner demon, I broke her free with a single word.”
Ye Shu’s face twisted in discomfort.
He had heard about that incident. After breaking free from her inner demon, his eldest senior sister had gone down the mountain and killed her parents.
It had been a harsh lesson for his young mind—this was how the demonic path operated.
Though later, he heard that her family wasn’t exactly innocent.
They had abandoned her as a child, and when they heard she had achieved fame and success, they rushed to claim her as their own, using the excuse of blood being thicker than water to pressure her for money.
They had even secretly contacted other cultivators, planning to sell her off for a hefty price.
When his eldest senior sister accidentally found out, she fell into deep despair, and the inner demon took hold.
After hearing her story, Master Luo Jiuyan gave her a single word: “Kill.”
And so, she went down the mountain and slaughtered her entire family…
But that wasn’t the point!
The point was, Ye Shu didn’t want her examining him now.
If, after the examination, she discovered he had fabricated the inner demon…
He couldn’t even imagine what would happen!
Kill!
His body shivered.
Noticing Luo Jiuyan’s sharp gaze, he lowered his head and slowly approached.
As the strange, enchanting fragrance grew stronger, Ye Shu looked up and saw the perfect, mature figure beneath the purple-black robe. He felt his mouth go dry.
“Come closer.”
Luo Jiuyan tilted her chin slightly.
Her gaze shifted to Ye Shu.
Looking at his handsome, heroic appearance.
For a moment, she was filled with endless emotions.
That little boy who used to follow her around, always lost in thought, had grown into such a dashing young man. Truly, time flies.
She couldn’t help but feel a little dazed.
“Junior Sister Hu’s so-called handsome men? Ten thousand of them couldn’t compare to my dear disciple,” she thought to herself, comparing Ye Shu to those men.
The disciple she had poured her heart into raising was like an immortal descended to earth.
He was nothing like those ordinary, handsome men plucked from the mundane world.
Eight a day? What did it matter? Eight bland dishes couldn’t compare to a single delicacy like dragon liver or phoenix marrow!
“Even righteous women, upon meeting my dear disciple, might find themselves unable to move, their hearts captivated.”
She thought of her junior sister from the Hundred Ghosts Sect and suddenly felt a hint of understanding.
If there truly was a man in this world with unparalleled talent, comprehension, and looks, it was only natural for people to want to know him.
Just like how, back in the day, even though she was infamous for her evil deeds, there were still righteous individuals who approached her under the guise of “subduing demons,” only to express their feelings.
Though, none of them survived.
But she understood one thing: no matter how evil or despicable a person’s actions were, if they were exceptional, they would always attract attention.
“Master?”
Ye Shu had already walked up to Luo Jiuyan. He looked up and noticed something unusual about his master.
“That was close!”
Luo Jiuyan snapped out of her reverie. After steadying her mind, her gaze when looking at Ye Shu became evasive, and a faint blush spread across her cheeks.
She took two deep breaths, her chest rising and falling dramatically, like mountains trembling.
Only then did she feel somewhat better.
“I must have been affected by those little minxes’ illusions, to think such filthy thoughts!” she thought to herself, furious.
She regretted reading those malicious letters.
Now, even looking at her own disciple made her imagination run wild.
What a sin!
Ye Shu asked with concern, “Master, are you okay?”
He only felt that Luo Jiuyan’s complexion was very strange. Was she blushing?
Had she discovered that there was no inner demon in him? Was she angry?
“I’m fine. I’ve just been affected by your aunts’ bewitching spells.”
After regaining her composure, Luo Jiuyan spoke expressionlessly.
She extended her slender jade-like hand and parted her lips slightly. “Place your chest against my hand. I’ll examine you for signs of an inner demon.”
Ye Shu’s heart raced. He had the urge to turn and run immediately.
But under her cold, majestic gaze, he didn’t dare to disobey.
Trembling, he stepped forward and pressed against her hand.
“Hiss!”
Luo Jiuyan’s brows furrowed slightly. She felt that Ye Shu’s chest was burning hot and surprisingly firm, giving her a strange sense of security.
“Is this what a man’s body feels like?”
She looked puzzled.
In her entire life, she had never been intimate with a man, let alone touched a man’s chest like this.
The sensation was peculiar, different from the softness of a woman’s body. Ye Shu’s aura was strong and masculine.
She couldn’t help but blush slightly.
Her first time experiencing something like this was with her own dear disciple.
However, she quickly adjusted her expression and stared directly into Ye Shu’s eyes. The two of them locked gazes, and the atmosphere became quiet and serene.
“Let me see where your inner demon lies!”
Luo Jiuyan’s gaze sharpened.
Her spiritual sense passed through Ye Shu’s chest, effortlessly invading the depths of his mind.
A series of thoughts echoed in her mind!
“Master is so beautiful! Master is truly stunning!”
“I love Master the most! Master is the most beautiful woman in the world!”
“Ah, Master’s hand is on my chest! We’re actually touching! Is this real?”
“Master’s lips look so delicious! I wonder if I could taste them?”
…
“You rebellious disciple!” Luo Jiuyan’s face turned bright red as she pulled her hand away and swung it to slap him.
“Master!”
Ye Shu trembled, every hair on his body standing on end.
The slap stopped just a hair’s breadth from his face.
If it hadn’t stopped in time, he was sure his head would have been smashed to pieces, and his life would have been over.
Luo Jiuyan’s face was flushed with embarrassment as she withdrew her hand, her almond-shaped eyes wide as she stared at Ye Shu.
“You dared to have impure thoughts about your senior sisters, and now even your master…”
