Chapter 446: Meow~
by AshPurgatory2025On the day Lin Xun was to leave the Huanxi Sect, he woke up early.
As soon as he opened the courtyard gate, Lin Xun smelled the fresh fragrance of egg drop porridge.
By the time Lin Xun realized what was happening, Bai Luoxue had already brought the egg drop porridge to the stone table in the courtyard.
Seeing Lin Xun awake, Bai Luoxue wiped her fair, delicate hands on her clothes, then turned back to the kitchen, brought out a basin of warm water, and walked over to him.
Helplessly, Lin Xun dipped a towel into the water to dampen it, wiped his face, and then rinsed his mouth with the light saltwater Bai Luoxue handed him.
Only then did Bai Luoxue return to the kitchen to continue her work.
Soon, a sumptuous breakfast was prepared by the young girl.
In fact, this wasn’t the first time Bai Luoxue had done this.
Ever since Lin Xun arrived at the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, Bai Luoxue had been the only maid in his courtyard.
At first, Lin Xun naturally refused.
But after refusing several times to no avail, Lin Xun naturally gave up and let the girl do as she pleased, as long as it made her happy.
“I’ll be leaving in a bit. Take good care of yourself.”
Eating the porridge and steamed buns the girl had prepared, Lin Xun spoke slowly.
“Mhm,” Bai Luoxue nodded.
Raising her elegant head, Bai Luoxue saw a grain of rice stuck to the corner of Lin Xun’s mouth. She reached out, picked it off, and then popped it into her own mouth and ate it.
When Bai Luoxue first started doing this, she didn’t blush in the slightest.
Instead, it was Lin Xun whose old face turned red at first.
But later on, looking into the girl’s clean and pure eyes, Lin Xun gradually grew accustomed to it.
If the young girl wasn’t shy, what did he have to be shy about?
Bai Luoxue continued to lower her head and drink her porridge.
Seeing that Bai Luoxue only gave a soft response and said nothing more, Lin Xun also remained silent.
Everything that needed to be said had already been said.
With the Ten Thousand Demon Sect and himself as her backing, Bai Luoxue wouldn’t encounter any danger in the Huanxi Sect.
As for the affairs of the Huanxi Sect, Lan Shanshan was there to help handle them.
Bai Luoxue could cultivate peacefully within the Huanxi Sect.
Once he found a way to resolve the issues with her Mind-Cultivation Technique, he would return immediately.
So this departure wasn’t a life-or-death parting; there was no need to make it too sentimental.
After finishing breakfast and helping Bai Luoxue clear the dishes, Lin Xun prepared to leave.
Naturally, Bai Luoxue followed behind Lin Xun to see him off.
Lin Xun remembered the last time they parted was in Luo City.
Back then, he was the one seeing Bai Luoxue off.
Now, unexpectedly, the roles were reversed.
Along the way, both were silent.
Bai Luoxue was silent because that was simply her personality.
Lin Xun was silent because he didn’t really know what to say.
In fact, it seemed that silence was the keynote of how Lin Xun and Bai Luoxue interacted.
“Alright, no need to see me further. This is far enough.”
Outside the Huanxi Sect’s Mountain-Protecting Magic Formation, Lin Xun came to a halt.
“I’ll see you a bit further.”
The girl in the white dress, holding the Calico Cat, looked up.
“There’s really no need. If you keep going, you might as well just come with me,” Lin Xun teased.
Hearing Lin Xun’s joke, the girl first lowered her head, then looked up at him seriously and nodded. “Can I go with you?”
“No.”
Lin Xun refused.
“Go back. Wait for me to come back for you.”
“Mhm… Then when you return, I will make you fall in love with me.”
“That’s impossible.”
Without another word, Lin Xun turned and left, gradually disappearing from the girl’s sight.
Not far away, Mo Wenwen watched this scene quietly.
She didn’t go with Lin Xun.
She knew her strength wasn’t enough to go where Lin Xun was headed.
So in the end, Mo Wenwen chose to stay here.
Moreover, Mo Wenwen had a feeling.
She felt that the Supreme Detachment from Emotion she practiced might find its answer here.
It wasn’t until half an hour after Lin Xun’s figure had vanished that the Calico Cat in the girl’s arms let out a meow, seemingly bringing her back to her senses.
Gently stroking the Calico Cat in her arms, Bai Luoxue finally turned around.
The early winter morning sun cast a shadow of the young girl.
Mo Wenwen saw Bai Luoxue return to her courtyard. After feeding the Calico Cat, the girl simply sat in the courtyard, lost in thought.
Mo Wenwen didn’t know what Bai Luoxue was thinking.
What could a girl as pure as a blank sheet of paper be thinking about?
Mo Wenwen didn’t ask; all she needed to do was ‘Observe the Dao’.
In the afternoon, Bai Luoxue finally stood up.
Finally, Mo Wenwen followed Bai Luoxue to the courtyard where Lin Xun had been staying.
Then, Mo Wenwen saw the girl take off her outer robe, remove her veil, and lie down on the bed where Lin Xun used to sleep, seemingly for a nap.
The moment the girl removed her veil and revealed her true face, Mo Wenwen’s mind went completely blank.
She had never seen such a beautiful girl.
She was so beautiful that even as a woman, Mo Wenwen couldn’t help but feel her heart skip a beat.
On second thought, Mo Wenwen felt that if she were Lin Xun, she would never be able to refuse such a girl.
By the way, had Lin Xun ever seen Bai Luoxue’s true face?
If Lin Xun had seen her true face, would he still have been willing to leave?
Mo Wenwen knew that Lin Xun wasn’t actually lecherous.
But this girl’s appearance had nothing to do with simple ‘lust’.
Her beauty transcended everything; with just one look, one would want to possess her completely.
One would be willing to even become her Puppet.
By the time Mo Wenwen came to her senses, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn had passed, and the girl on the bed was already fast asleep.
Mo Wenwen closed her eyes and began to meditate as well.
About two hours later, the girl rose from the bed, strands of hair brushing against her exquisite face.
After dressing, putting on her veil, and tidying the bed, the girl returned to sit in the courtyard.
Since everything in the Huanxi Sect was managed by Lan Shanshan, and they had the martial backing of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect and Lin Xun…
…Bai Luoxue only needed to be the Saintess in name, giving her plenty of time.
Rising from the courtyard, the girl returned to her Saintess Peak, removed her veil, and looked at herself quietly.
After a long while, the girl gently pinched her soft, smooth cheek, trying to make herself smile.
But perhaps because it looked too awkward, she eventually gave up.
“Meow~”
The Calico Cat crawled to the girl’s feet and gently rubbed against her fair ankles.
As if thinking of something, the girl’s eyes blinked softly.
Lifting her skirt slightly, the girl squatted down and patted the Calico Cat’s head:
“Do you want a name?”
“Meow~”
“Then I’ll give you a name.”
“Meow~”
“He likes to eat egg drop porridge, so you shall be called Danhua, okay?”
“Meow~”
