Ever since seeing young women around Yino, Xinyao openly demanded that Jinjie monitor Yino’s relationships with women.
Jinjie wasn’t a fool. Though she had no romantic experience, she could see what was going on…
And with Xinyao being so jealous, she clearly no longer considered Jinjie an outsider.
“No, that’s not right!”
“Yino has never even held another woman’s hand since he was little. He would blush just making eye contact with the dancers at Phoenix Pavilion…”
“How could he possibly turn bad so quickly after just half a year away from home?”
“It must be that vixen using some demonic art to bewitch my Yino’s mind!”
After a moment of silent brooding, the red-robed young woman suddenly raised her head, her fierce eyes making what seemed like a reasonable judgment.
But Jinjie slightly curled her lips, finding it hard to keep a straight face.
In the past, Jinjie had been a quiet woman, only concerned with completing tasks and getting paid, never bothering with other people’s gossip.
But since meeting Yino, Jinjie’s fixed worldview had been constantly refreshed. She now knew many of Yino’s secrets and true face. She knew it wasn’t the fox demon seducing Yino, but Yino using strange methods to contract both fox demons as his girls. If anyone should be called out for using evil techniques to corrupt women, it was Yino!
So whenever she thought about this, Jinjie felt anxious seeing her master kept in the dark.
She had a strong urge to tell Xinyao the truth, but she didn’t dare because she also had Yino’s evil marking on her body.
This was no innocent, honest young man… he was clearly a born natural demon!
“Pavilion Master…”
“Even flies won’t land on eggs without cracks…”
“If the young master truly had righteousness in his heart, how could he possibly be so close to fox demons…”
Because of the evil marking, Jinjie couldn’t directly betray Yino, but she still couldn’t help warning her master indirectly.
Xinyao folded her arms across her chest, silently listening, and nodded while biting her lip.
“You’re right. That bastard has never been innocent! At such a young age, he became a regular at Phoenix Pavilion!”
“Later when I forbade him from touching women outside, he’d rather sit in a private room drinking tea all day watching dancers perform than come home and properly learn righteous techniques from me!”
After ranting for a while, Xinyao calmed down as she recalled the past, and seemed to have cooled off a bit.
But she couldn’t just let this matter go.
Xinyao had to do something, otherwise in a few years, Yino would truly fall into the trap of the fox demon’s seductive arts!
By then, Xinyao would have wasted over ten years raising a little pervert for someone else.
“Today if Yino dares to come, I won’t show him any good face!”
“When I sell him medicinal pills, I’ll constantly mock him for kidney deficiency, and both openly and subtly mention that the vixen by his side drains men’s vital essence, causing great harm!”
“If he doesn’t get rid of that vixen, I won’t sell him anything anymore!”
“Forget about the Hundred Spirits Pavilion! I’ll directly tell those old fools at the Grand Tutor’s Mansion that Yino is having his yang essence drained by a vixen outside, becoming sterile! By then, they’ll surely drag that stinking brat back and lock him up in a dark room!”
Xinyao spoke on and on, and it seemed that by voicing these open and veiled measures, she felt much better. She suddenly felt the situation wasn’t as serious as she had imagined.
At least Xinyao still had trump cards to bring Yino home and raise him herself!
What was the point of hiding at the Wuji Sect? If those people dared to investigate Yino’s bloodline, Xinyao would directly take Yino and leave home. There was no reason they had to stay in this human territory. Yino should have had a brilliant destined life in the Phoenix race!
Just as Xinyao was grumbling to herself, Jinjie emerged from the shadows again—
“Pavilion Master!”
“The young master is about to arrive!”
At these words, the red-robed young woman’s phoenix eyes immediately cleared of resentment.
She swept away her previous grievances and hurriedly adjusted her appearance in the mirror nearby. After ensuring her exquisite makeup and the phoenix patterns on her legs were perfectly arranged, Xinyao sat down on the long chair behind the curtain, resuming her elegant posture with her white jade legs crossed at different heights under her slit red dress.
Knock knock knock!
Yino knocked, pushed the door, and through the gap saw the familiar red-robed young woman behind the curtain.
But as he set one foot into the hall, a terrifying, suffocating pressure swept over him.
Yino was startled and trembled. Though separated by the curtain and mask, he couldn’t see the red-robed woman’s true expression, but he felt her gaze was completely different from his last visit, as if he owed her millions.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Jinyue reached out from behind to hold Yino’s arm.
She gave Yino some confidence, but at the same time, Yino immediately felt that piercing gaze grow even more savage and cold.
He was startled, his palms turning cold, and he hurriedly let go of Jinyue’s hand.
Yino didn’t know why, but some instinct told him he must release Jinyue now, or that hand might be severed.
At this moment, the crimson fox girl following behind Yino slightly raised her eyebrows, detecting a certain flavor in the strange and cold atmosphere that filled the hall like an oppressive dark cloud.
“Um…”
“Pavilion Master, three months ago, I gained a lot in the secret realm, and I’ve brought many rare items this time.”
“Previously, you gave me many medicinal pills for my aunt’s sake. Now that I’ve earned my first bucket of gold, I naturally want to repay the kindness you and my aunt showed me back then.”
Seeing that the Hundred Spirits Pavilion Master seemed to be in a bad mood today, Yino didn’t dare continue standing stupidly at the door. He hurriedly took out a tray of treasures from his storage ring and bravely stepped forward to face that cold gaze, carefully speaking pleasant words.
At these words, the atmosphere in the room indeed changed.
In the corner, Jinjie folded her arms across her chest, looking at Yino and secretly sneering:
Putting on an act, what “first bucket of gold”… Back in the Azure Forest, he freeloaded so many secret treasures, and later that ancient tree demon gave him many rare treasures too, but I didn’t see this boy thinking about his aunt then.
He clearly consumed the most precious Azure Heart himself first, and gave the remaining treasures to other girls. Now this pile of odd treasures must be the ones nobody else could use, so he’s coming to suck up to the Hundred Spirits Pavilion Master!
Hmph, why didn’t he do this earlier? Now he knows to come coax the Pavilion Master?
Too late! The Pavilion Master isn’t a fool. She can see the quality of things at a glance. Using this trash to fool her—just wait for the Pavilion Master to scold him badly!
The more Jinjie thought about it, the more satisfying it felt. After all, back in the Azure Forest, Yino had given her a hard slap on her bottom, marking her with an evil pattern.
Such humiliation—Jinjie couldn’t take revenge herself, but remembering the Pavilion Master’s fierce vows earlier, she felt it would be quite enjoyable to stand by and watch Yino get scolded and embarrassed!
Thinking of this, Jinjie couldn’t help but smile.
But just as the room’s atmosphere fell silent, the red-robed young woman wearing a spirit swan mask behind the curtain slowly stood up, her eyes widening slightly in disbelief—
“Where did you get so many aged rare treasures from that secret realm?!”
“Yino, do you truly want to offer these to me, and you’ve even saved some for your aunt?”
The young woman’s tone shifted from the fierce, murderous one she had used when talking with Jinjie earlier. Even her tone softened with emotion, as if a child she had painstakingly raised for years had gone far away but still hadn’t forgotten his aunt’s kindness.
“?—?”
