Chapter 261: Chapter 148 Qingmiao Palace Master and Disciple - Imaginary Confrontation
Wandao Sect, Wangjiang Peak.
Xiao Yinruo was exchanging pleasantries with the two Vice Palace Masters of Qingmiao Palace, Gu Chenxi, and Yi Beiyao, along with Pei Wanyu.
Lu Jin’an took Zhu Nanzhi to the edge of the cliff, overlooking the depths of the white clouds.
Because she was about to part with her husband, Zhu Nanzhi was not in a pleasant mood.
But compared to their separation in the Nanzhuo Domain, Zhu Nanzhi wasn’t as sad.
Because this time, unlike in Nanzhuo Domain where she only knew her husband’s body, she understood his heart as well.
Zhu Nanzhi turned to look at Lu Jin’an’s side profile, her mouth suddenly curling into a smile: "Husband, you’re becoming more and more manly～"
"You deserve the most credit for that." Lu Jin’an smiled slightly, and turned to face her, handing over the Yunfeng Plum Blossom Hairpin: "This is for you."
Zhu Nanzhi looked at Lu Jin’an with delight: "Really?"
"Mm." Lu Jin’an nodded: "Master helped me choose it, my choices are still somewhat lacking, but I’ll make one for you myself when I get the chance in the future."
"Even if it’s lacking, I won’t dislike it." Zhu Nanzhi reached out to accept the Yunfeng Plum Blossom Hairpin, blinking: "As long as it’s from husband, it’s fine." NovelBin
"Well, I was originally planning to give you these two." Lu Jin’an leaned closer to Zhu Nanzhi, discreetly handing over the unused white silk straps and white silk stockings to her.
Zhu Nanzhi knew what they were as soon as she felt them, her cheeks flushing with a hint of red: "How come they’re different from before?"
"Different style." Lu Jin’an whispered in her ear: "Do you need me to teach you how to wear them?"
Zhu Nanzhi squinted her eyes: "Sure～ but I’m not that dumb, when husband comes to find me, I’ll wear them for him to see～"
"Okay." Lu Jin’an chuckled: "I feel like you like this gift more?"
Zhu Nanzhi said confidently: "Because it makes husband happy!"
Lu Jin’an lowered his head and kissed Zhu Nanzhi’s soft cherry lips: "You alone are enough to make me happy..."
"Hmph～" Zhu Nanzhi snorted softly: "But there’s one problem."
"What problem?"
"Two pairs aren’t really enough." Zhu Nanzhi said shyly: "I feel like this time apart from husband might be a bit long..."
"Alright."
"Well husband, prepare～"
"No problem."
Seeing Lu Jin’an agree, Zhu Nanzhi happily stood on her tiptoes to kiss him, whispering: "Husband, don’t think I’m being improper."
"How could I?"
Zhu Nanzhi wrinkled her cute nose: "Hmph～ Wanting to do that with husband is a very normal thing, yes, that’s it!"
Lu Jin’an couldn’t help but chuckle: "You’re not wrong."
Zhu Nanzhi gently caressed the Yunfeng Plum Blossom Hairpin in her hand, sneaking a glance at Pei Wanyu not far away.
Spending all this time with husband, when did he have time to prepare gifts?
It must have been Senior Pei who reminded him... Senior Pei really takes care of everything for husband.
And even while chatting with Master and others, Senior Pei’s gaze lingered on husband the most...
"What are you thinking about?" Lu Jin’an gently touched her azure teardrop-like earrings.
Zhu Nanzhi blinked: "Thinking about how to make husband like me even more."
Lu Jin’an smiled slightly: "Have you thought of anything?"
"Not yet." Zhu Nanzhi shook her head: "But I’m sure I’ll think of something!"
With that, she gave Master a glance, then reluctantly hugged him: "Then I’ll be going."
Lu Jin’an gave an "mm": "I’ll write to you."
Zhu Nanzhi gave Lu Jin’an a deep sniff, then straightforwardly let him go and approached Mu Qingyue, teasing: "I’m really worried you won’t take good care of my husband."
Mu Qingyue smiled slightly: "Be careful, under my care, Junior Brother might get addicted."
"Tsk～ what have you done all these years?"
"All sorts of preparations."
"Alright then." Zhu Nanzhi didn’t take it seriously, instead emphasizing: "Keep an eye on that fox spirit, right? I believe you can do it...
If not, ask Senior Pei for help."
Saying that, Zhu Nanzhi hugged Mu Qingyue: "Next time, don’t eavesdrop or spy." NovelBin
Finished speaking, she released Mu Qingyue and walked towards Xiao Yinruo.
Mu Qingyue turned ’to look’ at Zhu Nanzhi, not taking her ’triple cultivation’ invitation to heart, instead focusing on her mention of "asking Senior Pei for help."
Was Nanzhi just saying it casually, or did she notice something?
The flying boat of Qingmiao Palace disappeared into the sky, and Lu Jin’an exhaled lightly, then heard Master speak softly: "She really is suited to be a wife."
Lu Jin’an turned to look at Pei Wanyu, saying softly: "So are you, Master."
Pei Wanyu lifted a hand, tucking her hair behind her ear: "Am I?"
"Yes." Lu Jin’an said with a smile: "Because of ’You Rong’."
"Master is not that generous." Pei Wanyu patted him on the back: "And yet you like it?"
"Master, you’re so good, I’m tempted to be a rebellious disciple again."
Pei Wanyu gave him a sideways glance: "Don’t think just because Master gave you some color, you can start a dye workshop. Watch out or Master might throw you into the lake like Yinruo."
Lu Jin’an laughed: "Speaking of Palace Master Xiao, Nanzhi guessed right, she also thinks Palace Master Xiao has someone she fancies."
?
A strange gleam flashed in Pei Wanyu’s eyes. With Nanzhi’s abilities, it’s impossible for her to sense Yinruo’s Empathy Technique, so why does this girl think that?
Strange.
"Did you ask Nanzhi to probe?"
"No." Lu Jin’an shook his head: "I also don’t know why she thinks that, but whatever Palace Master Xiao is hiding will eventually come to light.
Once I break through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm, let’s visit Qingmiao Palace, how about it?"
Pei Wanyu nodded, then looked to Mu Qingyue, feeling a bit helpless.
She knew what her good disciple and Nanzhi did at midnight, because she was always on guard against Yinruo completing the Empathy, so she paid attention.
But her precious ’daughter’, not taking the opportunity to dip a spoonful is one thing, yet she still roams around with the fox spirit from Qingqiu...
