Chapter 2096: White Jade Sect Up Above

After experiencing what had just happened, the Second Prince’s remaining soldiers were especially attentive. They didn’t resist in the slightest and allowed Tushan Yu’s soldiers to tie them up.

After sending some people to supervise the situation, the rest of the human side began to clean up the battlefield, treat the injured, and do various other tasks. As for King Liang’s corpse, he was just collected like the other dead soldiers. No one gave him a second look.

Qin Guangyuan assigned tasks while making sure to send a scouting group to patrol their surroundings to prevent unforeseen accidents.

Zu An nodded approvingly when he saw how clear and orderly everything was. Qin Guangyuan didn’t show any negligence, even in this kind of situation where everything was practically over. These were indeed qualities befitting a general. Thus, Zu An left those matters to him and took Tushan Yu back to the tent so she could be treated.

...

In the human camp, Murong Qinghe suddenly said quietly, “That Bluefield Country Lord’s relationship with Big Brother Zu is special after all! Her entire body was almost sticking to big brother Zu just now.”

Xie Daoyun voiced her agreement, although she seemed a bit disappointed and frustrated.

“Big sister Xie, are you not going to get mad?” Murong Qinghe couldn't help but ask.

“Why would I get angry? I don’t even have any right to get angry.” Xie Daoyun sighed. “Anyway, that Bluefield Country Lord is really beautiful. If I were a man, it would be really hard for me to refuse her too.”

Murong Qinghe nodded and said, “That’s true. King Liang looked as if he really wanted to swallow her up.”

Xie Daoyun felt even more depressed now. She moved a bit faster so she wouldn’t have to listen to Murong Qinghe's chattering.

Murong Qinghe was confused, staring at Xie Daoyun's back as she left and murmuring, “Why do I suddenly feel a bit unhappy too?”

...

Inside the Bluefield Country Lord’s tent, Tushan Yu was sitting cross-legged in front. An unending stream of heat was entering through the center of her back. She suddenly said, “Miss Xie seems to like the young master.”

“What kind of nonsense are you saying? We're only friends.” Zu An sighed. To be honest, it was already quite difficult to say that he and Xie Daoyun only had a friendly relationship. But after experiencing what had happened to Chuyan and Honglei, he really wasn’t in the mood to talk about romance anymore.

“Just friends...” Tushan Yu chuckled, clearly not believing him. But when she saw that he didn’t want to admit to it, she tactfully chose not to continue discussing the topic. Instead, she said, “Apart from Miss Xie, I think that Miss Murong also likes you quite a bit.”

Zu An was stunned, then shook his head and said, “That’s impossible. The one she likes is her childhood friend, the Chu clan’s third young master. She merely sees me as her big brother.”

“Is that how someone looks at a big brother?” Tushan Yu replied with a smile, but she didn’t continue. She could tell that even the young lady herself wouldn't necessarily understand what she was feeling right now.

Perhaps the young master enjoys this kind of ambiguous feeling that's neither close nor distant.

A while later, Zu An retracted his hand and said, “Your injuries aren’t too serious. I helped you treat them a bit. You should be able to make a full recovery if you rest for a bit.”

“Thank you, young master~” Tushan Yu said, blinking as she looked at him.

Zu An smiled and said, “We’re not strangers. You can call me 'big brother Zu' or 'Ah Zu'.”

“I don’t want to. I like calling you 'young master'. That was what I called you the first time I met you, and that’s how I'll address you for the rest of my life,” Tushan Yu said as she leaned into his chest. She rubbed back and forth like a kitten, and her eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of mist.

A while later, she asked gently, “Is there something that is bothering the young master?”

As the queen of the Fox race, she understood the hearts of men the best. Judging from their earlier interaction, she had quickly discovered that Zu An was brooding over some thoughts. That was why she tactfully chose to stop her teasing, and warmly helped him massage his shoulders instead.

Zu An was truly impressed. Tushan Yu always knew how to help him relax and say the most considerate things. He said, “Some things happened in the sealed land...”

“Can the young master tell this humble one about it?” Tushan Yu asked with an expectant gaze.

That pitiful expression was really hard to refuse. Zu An hesitated, but then he told her roughly what had happened in the sealed land.

At first, Tushan Yu’s eyes were sparkling as she listened, but toward the end, she became sad and dispirited, saying, “Big sister Chu and big sister Qiu truly are brave. They really are admirable.”

As the lord of a country, she was a bit older than those two young women, but she felt it was incredibly natural to call them older sisters. The address seemed to imply a different meaning too.

“I failed to protect them well,” Zu An said quietly.

“Young master, you shouldn’t blame yourself. You defeated such powerful alien monsters and saved the entire world. You’ve already done really well. Those two big sisters are also heroes who saved the world. I don’t believe that they would want to see you so dejected,” Tushan Yu said, then took out her handkerchief and wiped at the fine sweat on his forehead. “Also, according to what the young master just said, the two of them haven’t truly died. We'll definitely be able to save them.”

“That’s right. I must save them!” Zu An exclaimed, and his expression became firm.

...

The next morning, Zu An bid everyone else farewell. Now that he had already resolved the matter of the sealed land, the human reinforcement army naturally didn’t need to continue heading north. Thus, he had the Qin brothers bring the army back, while Tushan Yu escorted the rebel army to the King Court.

“Where is big brother Zu planning to go now?” Xie Daoyun asked. Murong Qinghe also looked at him with a strange expression.

Everyone in the army had been gossiping about the relationship between Zu An and the Bluefield Country Lord, yet in the end, he'd stayed at Tushan Yu’s tent as if it wasn’t strange at all. Bluefield Country’s guards didn’t find it strange either.

Fine, you win. We don’t need to gossip anymore.

That old pervert King Liang was doing everything he could to fawn over her, and yet he couldn't even take half a step into Tushan Yu’s tent. It seems he never had a chance to begin with.

“I plan to pay the White Jade Sect a visit," Zu An said. When he saw all of their strange expressions, he naturally knew what they were thinking. Even so, he didn’t explain why they had slept together, and that they had only purely slept together in each other’s arms.

Hmm... Tushan Yu’s fluffy tail does feel really amazing, though.

He reflexively cast a sideways glance and saw that Tushan Yu was also looking at him, as if she knew what he was thinking. Her face immediately became red. After all, her tail was her most sensitive spot. She wouldn’t even show it normally, let alone allowing someone to touch it. But after what they had done in the sky back then, she could tell that the young master seemed to really like her tail. That was why, even though it was embarrassing, she had still brought out her tail on her own the previous night.

The young master does like it after all.

The only thing she was embarrassed about was that when her tail was being rubbed, she was always unable to hold herself back from making some embarrassing noises.

I hope the young master doesn’t think that I'm a lewd woman...

“Is big brother Zu going to visit big sister Chu?” Xie Daoyun asked with a bleak expression.

Zu An voiced his confirmation. Even though he had confirmed that the Snow Lady was Chuyan, he still had to see her for himself. He wanted to see the Chuyan of this world. He could no longer hold back the yearning he felt. After bidding those present farewell, he flew into the sky and disappeared into the distance.

When she saw him disappear, Xie Daoyun felt more and more dispirited. Tushan Yu suddenly arrived at her side and said, “Miss Xie, the young master is currently in a rush to save big sister Chu, so that's why he left so quickly.”

Xie Daoyun was stunned, asking, “Save big sister Chu?”

Tushan Yu pulled her to the side and gave her a rough summary of what had happened.

Even though the young master is gentle and considerate, he often still doesn’t understand the hearts of women enough. As one of the people at the young master’s side, I naturally need to help him out a bit.

This miss Xie clearly likes him so much, I can’t let there be a rift between them. I heard that her relationship with big sister Chu is quite good, so the young master probably won’t mind me telling her this.

If he really does get angry, at worst, I’ll just let him pet it again...

When she recalled last night, she even felt a mysterious sense of expectation.

When she heard about everything that had happened, Xie Daoyun was extremely shocked. So many things had actually happened to Miss Chu and Miss Qiu!

Big brother Zu must be really broken-hearted, and yet I’m throwing a tantrum over here.

Compared to Chuyan and Honglei, who firmly sacrificed their lives to save the world, I’m over here with only romance in my head. I really am small-minded.

Suddenly, ki stirred all around her, as if a streak of light had landed on her. Her aura gradually grew stronger.

Xie Xiu was pleasantly surprised, exclaiming, “Big sister probably gained enlightenment! She actually triggered a resonance with this world!”

Tushan Yu was stupefied.

She actually managed to gain enlightenment like that?

The women around the young master really are too talented, I’m feeling so much pressure here...

A while later, the light around Xie Daoyun disappeared. She slowly opened her eyes, and her gaze no longer carried any trace of the bleakness or dejection from earlier. Instead, it was calm like autumn waters, beautiful and peaceful.

“Thank you, Miss Tushan,” Xie Daoyun said with a kind smile, now sounding much more intimate.

“Miss Xie is too polite,” Tushan Yu said as she also snapped out of her daze.

The women around the young master’s side all have amazing personalities.

When the group scattered, Murong Qinghe secretly pulled Xie Daoyun over and asked, “Big sister Xie, why did your relationship with the Bluefield Country Lord suddenly become so good?”

The two of them had still been criticizing her and gossiping behind her back not too long ago, after all.

“Miss Tushan is a really good person. We just misunderstood her before,” Xie Daoyun said, showing her an apologetic smile. She had just made a breakthrough and needed to hurry back to her tent to consolidate it all.

As she watched Xie Daoyun leave, Murong Qinghe pouted. “Hmph, you traitor.”

...

Meanwhile, Zu An rushed toward the White Jade Sect all throughout the night, practically not stopping for any rest. The White Jade Sect wasn’t hidden like the Lake of Hatred; all the higher authorities among the humans knew where it was located.

After flying for more than half a month, he finally arrived in the White Jade Sect’s vicinity. He unwittingly slowed down as he looked at the beautiful buildings in the clouds. He suddenly felt something similar to the awkwardness of returning to one's hometown after a long time.
