Chapter 283: Do I Look Like a Fool?

Looking at Bai Luoxue in the room, Lin Xun froze in place.

The short shirt, short skirt, and over-the-knee black stockings that Bai Luoxue was wearing were very common in his previous life.

But in this era, they were absolutely extremely rare!

No!

They simply didn’t exist!

Even if the folk customs of the Qian Kingdom were open and inclusive of everything, you would definitely never see a woman on the streets with a skirt as short as her knees!

If it weren’t for the fact that this set of short skirt and shirt had a classical charm, looking like a Fusion of ancient clothing and a modern short skirt…

Otherwise, Lin Xun would have really thought that Bai Luoxue had opened Qinger’s wardrobe.

And put on the JK sailor suit he had given to Qinger.

But to be fair, this Fusion of a sailor suit and ancient Hanfu style actually had a different kind of charm.

The blend of classical beauty and modern allure gave a feeling that the whole was greater than the sum of its parts.

Plus, the girl in front of him was already the most bewitching girl in the world.

Lin Xun felt that things were going south and hurriedly recited the Heart-Calming Incantation Wang Chen had taught him, lest he be bewitched by the Prodigy before him!

“W-What are you doing?”

Lin Xun took a step back out of the room, as if there were a terrifying abyss inside that, once fallen into, he could never escape.

Bai Luoxue’s eyes blinked gently as she slightly pinched a corner of her skirt. “I’m making you like me. Do you like me?”

“L-Like my foot!”

Lin Xun swallowed hard, trying his best to look away, but found he couldn’t shift his gaze at all.

It was only because Bai Luoxue hadn’t taken off her veil yet.

Otherwise, he feared he would be abducted by Bai Luoxue to the Huanxi Sect the next day to serve as a human battery.

“Get out of the room right now!”

“I have no strength left. Carry me out.”

Bai Luoxue blinked gently and simply lay down on the bed, looking at Lin Xun while lying on her side. Her legs, clad in black stockings, were intertwined, and her small feet were dainty and cute.

Lin Xun’s teeth were almost crushed from clenching them as he used all his strength to close his eyes.

He had no choice!

This kind of “pure desire” girl, this charm, the classical style, the long straight black hair, the absolute territory, and the black stockings…

Everything was dancing on his operating System.

Only by closing his eyes could Lin Xun muster a modicum of resistance.

“Bai Luoxue! What you’re doing is wrong. If there’s something, let’s talk it over properly! Come out first—no! Change your clothes first!”

Lin Xun spoke with his eyes closed, intending to appeal to her emotions and reason.

It was a good thing Qinger wasn’t here, otherwise, she would have eaten him alive.

“You like these clothes of mine, so why should I change?”

The sound of Bai Luoxue’s skin rubbing against the quilt reached Lin Xun’s ears. He heard the girl get out of bed, her feet stepping on the floor as she walked toward him step by step.

Lin Xun subconsciously filled in the blanks in his mind, and his thoughts immediately became chaotic. He hurriedly began reciting the Heart-Calming Incantation.

“Lin Xun, it’s okay. Jiang Qing won’t know. I am yours, and I am only yours.”

Bai Luoxue took Lin Xun’s hand.

“I’ve removed my veil. Please open your eyes and look at me. I want to show you my most beautiful self. In this world, only you can have me.”

…

The veil was the Seal on Bai Luoxue’s Bewitching Bone. Once it was removed, Lin Xun had to resist the heart-consuming allure of the Bewitching Bone at every moment.

Even so, a voice from deep within kept calling for Lin Xun to open his eyes and follow his heart’s choice.

That voice kept telling Lin Xun, “Even if you die, as long as you can enjoy her beauty, it’s a total win!”

Lin Xun knew this was his inner pervert personality constantly trying to fool him.

But he wouldn’t open his eyes even if it killed him!

If he opened them now, he would truly be finished.

However…

Why did he feel like Bai Luoxue was being a bit talkative today?

This didn’t fit her character at all.

And why did her tone sound a bit stiff?

As if she were reading something?

Suddenly, Lin Xun pulled Bai Luoxue into his arms.

Feeling her soft body, the allure of the Bewitching Bone attacked his heart. Lin Xun even used all of his spiritual power to resist its influence.

Lin Xun only felt that it was because his Realm was significantly higher than hers.

Otherwise, he feared his innocence would have already been defiled by Bai Luoxue.

Suddenly pulled into Lin Xun’s embrace, Bai Luoxue’s extremely bewitching cat-tail peach blossom eyes blinked gently, looking a bit surprised.

But soon, Bai Luoxue closed her eyes, her small hands hugging Lin Xun’s back as she went limp in his arms, waiting for his next move.

In Bai Luoxue’s heart, Lin Xun could do whatever he wanted to her; she already belonged to him.

However, Lin Xun made no further move at all.

Lin Xun looked down and indeed saw a piece of paper in Bai Luoxue’s hand.

Without a word, Lin Xun snatched the white paper from Bai Luoxue’s hand.

Looking closely—holy cow!

Everything written on it was the lines Bai Luoxue had just said!

Behind every line, there were notes like “soften tone,” “stroke long hair,” and “slightly lift the hem of the skirt”!

Lin Xun’s brow twitched. He took out a large piece of black cloth from his Storage Pouch and covered Bai Luoxue from head to toe.

After applying spiritual power to the black cloth, Bai Luoxue was instantly unable to move.

Lin Xun then took out an immortal-binding rope and tied Bai Luoxue up like a Zongzi.

“Do you like it this way?” Bai Luoxue spoke slowly from under the black cloth. “Actually, I brought some rope too.”

“The hell you did!” Lin Xun knocked the girl’s head in annoyance. “Speak! Who gave you this paper? This isn’t your handwriting.”

…

Bai Luoxue couldn’t lie. Generally, when it came to things she didn’t want to say but didn’t know how to hide, she would fall silent.

“If you tell me, I’ll go back to the Huanxi Sect with you.”

“Really?”

“Really!” Lin Xun nodded. “I swear on the name of Lin Xun!”

“Shanshan gave it to me.” Bai Luoxue sold out her Junior Sister without the slightest hesitation.

“Shanshan? Who is she?” Lin Xun asked.

“My Junior Sister.”

“How did she end up in Luo City?”

“She came to take me back to the Sect.”

Lin Xun was delighted, thinking that this troublesome time bomb was finally going to be taken away. “Then when are you going back?”

Bai Luoxue said calmly, “I’ll go back if you go back with me.”

…Lin Xun felt he shouldn’t have asked that question. “How does she know my identity? Did you tell her?”

“No.”

Bai Luoxue, covered by the black cloth, shook her head.

“I didn’t tell Shanshan about your identity.

When I went to find you, I locked Shanshan in the courtyard.

She didn’t follow me.”

Lin Xun’s brow twitched. “She’s a Cultivator, right? What’s the use of locking her in the courtyard?”

Bai Luoxue nodded. “I told Shanshan that if she followed me, I would ignore her. Every time I say that, Shanshan becomes very obedient.”

Lin Xun: “…”

For some reason, Lin Xun felt that Bai Luoxue’s Junior Sister, Shanshan, might be even more airheaded than Bai Luoxue herself.

But regardless, the Huanxi Sect had already sent someone to bring Bai Luoxue back.

This meant that the Huanxi Sect had noticed Bai Luoxue was currently living in Luo City and selling tofu.

Perhaps the Huanxi Sect was already investigating.

Investigating exactly why their own Saintess would be willing to sell tofu in Luo City.

This forced Lin Xun to become vigilant.

If they investigated him, it would be troublesome.

“Is that Junior Sister of yours trustworthy?” Lin Xun asked Bai Luoxue.

“Trustworthy?” Bai Luoxue tilted her head.

“It’s… never mind.”

Lin Xun felt it was pointless to ask.

“Come on, I’m going to meet your Junior Sister.”

Lin Xun walked up to Bai Luoxue, hoisted her over his shoulder by her waist, and headed toward the back courtyard of the Tofu Shop across the street.

At this moment, in the back courtyard of the Tofu Shop, Lan Shanshan was holding dried fish, bent over on the snow, trying to lure the Calico Cat.

The Calico Cat arched its back, looking at the human before it warily.

“Don’t be afraid. Big sister is a good person. Here, have some dried fish.”

Lan Shanshan threw the dried fish in front of the kitten.

The Calico Cat sniffed it and licked it cautiously.

Just as Lan Shanshan was about to pounce and pull it into her arms for a good cuddle, the courtyard gate was suddenly kicked open.

The Little Calico Cat was startled and quickly jumped away.

Lan Shanshan suddenly became alert.

The moment she saw the man outside the gate, Lan Shanshan’s figure vanished into the white snow.

The next moment, Lan Shanshan appeared behind Lin Xun, a dagger following closely as it stabbed toward the back of his head.

Just as the dagger was only an inch away from Lin Xun’s head, Lan Shanshan found she couldn’t swing it that final inch!

Lan Shanshan even discovered she couldn’t move at all!

“This is your Junior Sister?” Carrying Bai Luoxue with one hand, Lin Xun patted her slender waist with the other.

“Mm.” Bai Luoxue, tied up like a Zongzi, nodded.

“Senior Sister?” Hearing her sister’s voice, Lan Shanshan was even more shocked. “Who are you?! Let Senior Sister go! If you’re so tough, come at me!”

“Come at you?” Lin Xun turned around and looked the girl up and down.

He felt that this girl’s brain really didn’t work well.

Your Senior Sister has a better figure than you, whiter skin than you, and is naturally bewitching. Although I haven’t seen her true face, her looks are definitely much higher than yours.

Why would I come at you instead of her?

Do I look like a fool?

Being looked up and down by Lin Xun’s disdainful gaze, Lan Shanshan naturally understood the meaning in his eyes, feeling both ashamed and angry:

“You bastard! Where are you looking?! I’ll kill you!”

Lan Shanshan kept wriggling in the air like a caterpillar.

Lin Xun ignored her and just carried Bai Luoxue toward the room.

“Bastard! Let go of my Senior Sister! You bastard! If you’re so tough, come at me! You beast!”

Lan Shanshan kept shouting, so Lin Xun directly set up a Sound-Isolating Magic Formation, otherwise it would be bad if the neighbors were called over.

When Lin Xun carried Bai Luoxue into the room, Lan Shanshan was already in despair.

Was her Senior Sister’s innocence about to be taken by such a stinking man?

And he didn’t even close the door!

But before Lan Shanshan could shed tears of blood, she saw the man just toss her sister onto the bed, then close the door and walk out, even adding a reminder:

“Use your own magic power to untie the rope, change your clothes before coming out! And put on your veil!”

“You clearly like me wearing this outfit,” Bai Luoxue’s voice came from the room.

“I—! Don’t talk nonsense!”

Lin Xun helplessly rubbed his forehead, sighed, and then looked at Lan Shanshan.

“Please take a seat, Miss Lan.”

Lin Xun released the Spell he had placed on Lan Shanshan and sat on a stone stool in the courtyard.

Lan Shanshan felt the constraints on her body vanish. She dropped from the air and glanced at the man warily.

Actually, just now, Lan Shanshan had already faintly guessed the identity of the man before her.

Although there was no evidence, Lan Shanshan felt that if she hadn’t guessed wrong, this person was…

“No need to guess, I am Lin Xun.” Lin Xun revealed his identity.

At that very instant, Lan Shanshan felt a massive Spiritual Pressure weigh down on her like a great mountain.

In front of this man, Lan Shanshan’s instincts told her she had no right to fight him, and she couldn’t even dream of running away.

She was like a little lamb.

Hadn’t she heard that Lin Xun was suffering from a great dao injury?

Why was every move he made still so oppressive?

Was it because her Realm was too low, or because his was too high?!

Lan Shanshan, who was only in the Dragon Gate Realm, couldn’t make a judgment.

“W-What do you want?”

As if facing death with equanimity, Lan Shanshan sat down in front of Lin Xun.

At the same time, Bai Luoxue, having changed her clothes, walked out of the room.

The black cloth that had wrapped Bai Luoxue and the rope had already been folded by the girl and placed on the table.

Then Bai Luoxue sat obediently by Lin Xun’s side, her eyes blinking as she looked at him.

Even though Bai Luoxue’s eyes still lacked emotion, it made one feel as if the girl were like a newlywed wife looking at her husband.

For a moment, Lan Shanshan felt a tightness in her chest!

Senior Sister! You’re too much!

I’m your fellow disciple, the kind from the same Master!

It was one thing for this man to bully me just now and even tie you up, but Senior Sister, how could you just sit right next to him?

“Don’t be nervous.” Lin Xun smiled at Lan Shanshan. “What did Bai Luoxue tell you just now?”

Lin Xun didn’t think Bai Luoxue would lie to him, but this expressionless girl was not good with words; Lin Xun had to figure out the situation himself.

“Hmph!”

Lan Shanshan was in a very bad mood.

“Senior Sister was tight-lipped. She said she promised you something, but she didn’t tell me any actual details. She only asked me how to win a man’s heart.”

“So you gave Bai Luoxue such a terrible idea?” Lin Xun’s brow twitched.

“What do you mean terrible idea! There is no woman in the world more beautiful than Senior Sister! It’s clearly your problem! Are you… impotent?”

As she spoke, Lan Shanshan glanced down at Lin Xun and then decisively shut her mouth.

Lin Xun awkwardly crossed his legs to hide it.

He couldn’t help it; today his operating System had been frantically provoked.

“Strange, is my idea really not working?” Lan Shanshan was even more puzzled.

“It worked.”

Just as Lan Shanshan was doubting if she truly understood a man’s heart, Bai Luoxue looked at her.

“This time, the time Lin Xun spent staring at me was the longest.”
