Chapter 112 Dan Wulan's Kiss (Combined Chapter)_2
Was there something wrong with what I just said? Didn't I manage to rekindle Junior Sister's affection for me?
Damn it, those books are all lies! How could there be such pure-hearted women? The more beautiful a woman is, the more inscrutable her thoughts!
Su Bei sighed softly, his hand instinctively reaching for the Qingping Sword at his waist. Beholding its sinister gleam under the moonlight, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion, tears threatening to fall.
No wonder so many Sword Cultivators eventually reach the state of a Clear Sword Heart, with no women in their hearts, drawing their swords with divine ease.
Feelings... they truly harm the body, mind, and spirit!
Just as Su Bei was about to draw his Qingping Sword to tenderly kiss its blade, he suddenly heard Dan Wulan calling out to him.
"Senior Brother."
Her voice was clear and melodious, unlike the icy tone he was used to hearing from her.
"What is it, Juni—"
Su Bei, somewhat puzzled, turned his head while continuing to absent-mindedly toy with the Qingping Sword in his hand. However, before he could finish speaking, a figure rushed toward him, and he was suddenly enveloped in an enchanting, fragrant breeze.
His slightly parted lips met a touch that was cool yet delicate, silencing the words he wanted to say.
The "-nior Sister" that Su Bei was about to utter seemed to melt into the corners of Dan Wulan's mouth.
Lips intermingled.
Then came a pleasant, dizzying sensation, as if time itself had stopped.
Su Bei stared blankly at the pair of eyes before him.
What kind of eyes are these?
Without a speck of impurity, the pupils seemed to harbor twin whirlpools, luring you to peer inside, a gaze from which you could never extricate yourself.
Their heated breaths mingled, and they could feel the warmth on each other's faces.
Under the silver hook of a crescent moon, Dan Wulan's cheeks were flushed with an intoxicating crimson hue.
Xiao Ruoching, still bewildered, suddenly heard Dan Wulan call out, "Master!" and subconsciously turned her head.
And then she saw the scene before her.
Under the moonlight, a beautiful couple.
In the snow, locked in a passionate kiss.
Pain.
Her heart ached terribly.
It shattered in an instant, as if pricked by needles.
Xiao Ruoching hurriedly turned away, her slender hands clutching her chest.
I only harbor hatred for him! I couldn't possibly feel this way just because he's kissing another woman! she kept telling herself.
Her mind was a mess, so chaotic that Xiao Ruoching couldn't continue practicing the Sword Scripture.
She stood up and ran heedlessly into the distance.
Her indistinct shadow stretched long under the moonlight.
Upon hearing the movement, Dan Wulan snapped back to reality and hastily stepped back. Her cold gaze avoided Su Bei's, and her heart hammered wildly, like a frantic doe.
What happened to me?
Why did I suddenly... suddenly kiss him?
What will Senior Brother think of me?
Will he think of me as a dissolute and impure woman?
Will he dislike me if I'm not as cold as before?
Will he...
At this thought, Dan Wulan quickly coughed lightly, trying to appear more natural. Her expression remained icy as she pretended nothing was amiss, saying indifferently, "Don't overthink it."
"I was simply repaying a debt of gratitude for saving my life."
"That's all."
...
Dan Wulan considered herself cool and aloof, and her voice now reverted to its previous frosty timbre.
But what she didn't know was that under the moonlight, Su Bei could clearly see her blushing, irresistibly charming face—an image no man could likely resist.
Su Bei still hadn't recovered from his shock.
Even though they were now apart, he could still feel that soft and tender sensation on his lips.
What was up with Dan Wulan?
Could it be... not just a small increase in affection? Had I reached the maximum?
Are aloof women really so easy to conquer?
And what about her current behavior? Classic tactics? Did she offer herself up first and then try to make excuses?
As a man with normal emotional intelligence, Su Bei would certainly not presume that Dan Wulan had kissed him merely to repay him for saving her life.
How could that be possible? Couldn't she have just given me a few hundred thousand spirit stones instead?
But seeing her desperately trying to act nonchalant, seemingly still dazed by what had just happened, Su Bei suddenly found his Ninth Junior Sister rather adorable!
He had no intention of exposing her.
Best to leave it at that.
Su Bei cleared his throat and nodded seriously, saying lightly, "Junior Sister, do you know..."
Dan Wulan, feeling her face burn हॉट, didn't think before responding, her heartbeat seeming to race again as she blurted out, "I'm willing."
The air fell silent.
Su Bei: ←_←
Dan Wulan: (⊙~⊙)
Then, her face expressionless, Dan Wulan suddenly drew her sword from her waist and slashed at a nearby large tree.
CRASH! The tree fell to the ground.
The tree: Damn it all!
Because she still hadn't fully recovered, and coupled with her exasperation and anger, Dan Wulan began to cough violently.
Su Bei swallowed hard, watching this unfold, and held back the teasing comment about getting pregnant from a kiss.
Ninth Junior Sister couldn't possibly be a tsundere, right...?
How could she have such a complex personality?
Then he hastily took several Qi and Blood Restoration Pills from his storage ring, hurriedly passed them to Dan Wulan, and slipped away. His voice trailed into the distance as he called back, "Er, Junior Sister, just stay put. I need to go find my disciple..."
Dan Wulan watched Su Bei depart with a complex look in her eyes. She sat down gently, arms wrapping around her knees.
