34. Furiously Fluffed Up In the dead of night, the White Tiger Hall was silent, and the cook’s loud scream echoed especially clearly: “Whoa, you scared me to death!” Bai Yuanxiu scratched the back of his head, sheepish. “Haha, sorry, sorry.” The cook pulled out a piece of coarse cotton cloth, dampened it, and covered the wooden bucket. After estimating the dough’s fermentation time, she found a cool spot to sit with Bai Yuanxiu. She glanced over at him, first thanking him for…- 80.2 K • Completed
- 33. Don’t come any closer! Bai Yuanxiu had just been feeling a rare moment of relief—finally, he no longer had to juggle the dual identities of “Hero Bai” and “Demonic Sect Protector.” A strange sense of freedom bloomed in his chest, and he even found himself anticipating the looks on those righteous Sect folks’ faces when they uncovered the truth. He turned around to face the bearded middle-aged man, flashing a bright, easygoing smile. “I—” Puh-puh! A few Demonic Sect members…

- 32. This scene felt strangely familiar. Though they were both Protectors, there hadn’t been a single instance in past years where the Left and Right Protectors had been dispatched together—and without anyone else present. So now, seeing Xiao Qing acting under the title of Left Protector, Bai Yuanxiu was suddenly struck dumb with disbelief. Xiao Qing, at this moment, was radiating an aura that clearly said “strangers stay away.” His back was straight, his seated posture composed yet alert, and…

- 31. Pineapple or Big Cat? Yunhua Mountain was tall, and the gorge behind the mountain was deep, making for an excellent echo chamber. So at first, Bai Yuanxiu thought that booming noise had to be some kind of explosion. He and Xiao Qing swiftly swept down the mountain, only to suddenly hear someone shouting at full volume: “Bo Luochun, come out here!” Xiao Qing: ? Bai Yuanxiu: “Pineapple?” TN: Bo Luochun” (碧螺春) sounds a bit like “Boluochun”, and “Boluó” (菠萝)…

- 30. He’s really good to me. “Cough, cough, cough—!” Bai Yuanxiu was so startled he choked on air, coughing so violently it sounded like the heavens were falling. And then, as he looked up, that disheveled figure was suddenly right in his face. Bai Yuanxiu freaked out and swung a punch on reflex. The moment he threw the punch, he immediately panicked—he hadn’t held back at all. Normally, that kind of blow could snap a tree in half. If this “ghost” turned out to be human, it’d…

- 29. Meeting the Parents Bai Yuanxiu stepped forward and shielded Xiao Qing behind him, face cold as he stared at the furious man in front of them. The man’s beard trembled beneath his chin—he was clearly fuming. “In broad daylight—have you no shame!” Faced with this scolding at such close range, Bai Yuanxiu blinked in confusion. “Sorry, and… you are?” That one sentence was like a spark thrown into a barrel of gunpowder—the man’s hair nearly stood on end from rage. “I’m…

- 28. I only care about you Feeling the cool touch on his back, Bai Yuanxiu wanted nothing more than to cover his face in shame. How could he react like that? Xiao Qing was just trying to check his injury. How could a single word send his mind spiraling that far? The fleeting coldness on his back made Bai Yuanxiu uncomfortable. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed and stammered, “It’s probably not that serious, maybe we—ow—” He winced and yelped in pain before he could even turn…

- 27. Escape At the time, the Sect Leader had only left Bai Yuanxiu with that one cryptic sentence, leaving him completely baffled. No matter how many times Bai Yuanxiu asked afterward, he acted like he hadn’t heard. The next day, annoyed by Bai Yuanxiu’s persistent questioning, he threw out, “Figure out what Xiao Qing means to you first,” and ran off—leaving Bai Yuanxiu to stew over that question for days. The Sect Leader hid from Bai Yuanxiu. Bai Yuanxiu hid from the hall masters who…

- 26. Who Is It That You Truly Like The sword light flashed like a rainbow, fast enough that there wasn’t even time to blink. If it hit someone, by the time they reacted, their head and body might’ve already parted ways. Bai Yuanxiu flicked his wrist in a flourish, and the shadow-like black iron sword returned to its sheath at his waist, leaving behind only a ground full of tattered leaves. Ye Nanxun rolled his eyes. All that just to trim a few branches for scenery? Even the Sect Leader was…

- 25. The Jade Bone Scripture Xiao Qing had been good-looking since he was little. At first, he was treated like a commodity and brought back to the den—but for some unknown reason, the plan changed midway, and he was sent instead to the snow-covered northern regions of Dajing. Zhou Xiaoxiao’s childhood may have been a lie, but at least it had a sugary disguise. Xiao Qing’s was different. In that desolate manor deep in Mount Anyang, time for Xiao Qing seemed frozen in a perpetual…
