All The Female Disciples Want To Kill Me-Chapter 410 - 253 The Strange Su Bei Inside The Soul Lamp_3

Chapter 410: Chapter 253 The Strange Su Bei Inside The Soul Lamp_3
For some reason, an image of a girl with long, straight red hair surfaced in his mind—the one whose death led countless fans to mail him blades... And that old scoundrel Herzog, what a lingering source of frustration...
His thoughts snapped back to reality. Nan Ji had already wrapped the blanket tightly around herself, her eyes, full of shame and anger, fixed on him.
Su Bei swallowed nervously. Because he’d gotten carried away earlier, he was now a little flustered.
He cast an apologetic glance towards Nan Ji and then asked, "Why ask this all of a sudden?"
Nan Ji had already changed into her white gown. With one jade-like leg crossed over the other, she looked down at Su Bei from her dominant position, radiating a frosty aura.
Su Bei took a step back, shivering involuntarily.
"Master, Master Shangguan has returned!"
"He said... he said Sword Maiden possesses the True Word Life Pattern, but it’s been sealed by someone..."
"..."
True Word Life Pattern?
Nan Ji was also startled for a moment; this was the first time she had ever heard of this so-called life pattern.
Su Bei’s eyes narrowed slightly. Back in Wu City, he had detected Great Dao Qi within Sword Maiden’s meridians. Even then, he had sensed that the blockages in her meridians were unlike those of an ordinary person.
Back then, I even thought it was congenital. But since that old fellow said it was intentionally blocked, then perhaps...
The South Emperor? What exactly is her relationship with Sword Maiden?
"Master, do you remember the Eastern Emperor?"
As Xiao Ruoching finished speaking, Nan Ji’s ears instantly perked up at the mention of the "Eastern Emperor."
Outwardly, she maintained a calm demeanor, but her peripheral vision remained fixed intently on Su Bei.
"Hm? What about the Eastern Emperor?"
"Disciple remembers that back in Wu City, the Eastern Emperor gave Master a pill, right? Was it called the Heaven and Earth Yellow Pill?"
"It was... I think?"
Hearing this, Su Bei seemed to grasp something.
"Master Shangguan said that the Heaven and Earth Yellow Pill might help Sword Maiden reopen her meridians!"
"If her meridians are fully opened, Sword Maiden will be able to speak..."
"Hey, Master... Mas—"
The light from the Token gradually dimmed and then extinguished, falling silent.
Xiao Ruoching gazed at the Soul Lamp, which had gradually returned to stillness. A blush crept onto her pouting face as she muttered under her breath, "Why did it go out? I still wanted to ask when he would be back..."
Then, her eyes filled with joy, she looked towards Sword Maiden, took her small hand, and, her long eyelashes fluttering, she let out a soft breath, saying, "Sword Maiden, you’ll be able to speak soon!"
Mo Li hummed softly through her nose and nodded. "Yes."
Sword Maiden bit her thin lips, murmuring. Then, she shyly peeked her head out, moving inch by inch to gently rest it against the chests of the two young women.
Warm. A gentle warmth.
「Somewhere in Wu City.」
Su Bei sat obediently on the ground, head bowed and eyes downcast, awaiting Nan Ji’s judgment.
The blush on Ji Nanjue’s cheeks had not yet faded, and her head still felt a little fuzzy. She then stood up, looked at Su Bei before her, and scolded, "Su Dudu, you were insolent!"
"You’re so audacious!"
"..."
That ’well-behaved’ man lifted his head, a look of heartache on his face. He then rose, intending to drape his white robe over her, and said softly, "Ji Baoer, be good now, put your clothes on first..."
"It’s broad daylight..."
Ji Nanjue’s phoenix eyes stared at Su Bei, the corners of her lips curving into a dangerous smile. One foot was planted on the ground, the other leg propped up on a nearby stool, her legs forming a right angle. From the side, her posture revealed an alluring curve...
Her expression was grim, each word practically forced from between her clenched teeth, "So you *do* realize it’s broad daylight?"
"And you *do* realize you should cover me with clothes?"
"A bit late for that now!"
