Yino’s legs started feeling a bit sore after walking halfway up the mountain. Suddenly, he noticed a little jackalope happily singing and hopping along in front of him.
After some intense bickering, Yino and Yunjin finally rode their beloved deer, practically nose-diving down the mountain towards the small village at the foot of the hill. The cold wind howled as Yino gripped the deer’s colorful antlers like he was riding a motorcycle, while Yunjin sat behind him, hugging him tightly and enjoying the rare feeling of having someone to rely on.
But the good times didn’t last long. Yino vaguely saw a transparent barrier on the horizon ahead. Confused, he froze for a moment before his eyes widened in realization. He finally remembered something he had completely forgotten since starting the climb – his Immortal Alliance pass was still tied tightly around Jinyue’s thigh, hidden under her skirt and white lace thigh-high stockings!
“Oh no! Hit the brakes! Hit the brakes, Wangxue!” Yino shouted.
Bang! Before anyone could react, the deer crashed into the barrier, and Yino, who was sitting in the front, also smashed his head against it. The three of them crashed on the spot.
“Damn…” Yino crawled out of the snow pit, secretly clicking his tongue. Just like how his roommate had stolen his lighter in his previous life, thinking about that vixen Jinyue made him furious.
Fortunately, it was late at night and no one was patrolling nearby. Yino discussed a plan with Yunjin. First, he sealed Wangxue back. Then, he had Yunjin place the pass between her perky breasts. The two hugged each other tightly, almost crab-walking together to get through the barrier…
“It actually worked?” Yino couldn’t believe it. In his previous life, games had lots of bugs, but he never thought that even after being reborn, you could still glitch through the map barriers! The Immortal Alliance must have been short on funds, otherwise they wouldn’t have sent a bunch of Qi Refining disciples on a three-day trip to the snowy countryside.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yino gently rubbed the bump on the little deer’s head and fed her some of his own vital energy. Then, he rode his beloved deer-motorcycle down the mountain again.
By the time they reached the small village, all the households had closed their doors, with only a few scattered oil lamps left on in the homes at the head and tail of the village. The Northern Snow Mountain was located in the north after all, with extremely cold weather and an earlier nightfall.
Just before the last house at the end of the village extinguished their lamp, Yino softly knocked on the door of the dilapidated little courtyard. “Grandpa, Grandma!” Yunjin called out loudly beside Yino, her heart racing.
Ever since she went to the Wuji Sect a few years ago, Yunjin could only afford to buy an expensive airship ticket to visit her grandparents during the Spring Festival due to her frugal lifestyle. That’s also why Yunjin’s first contracted spirit beast was a crane that didn’t match her healer profession.
Other spirit beasts couldn’t fly, and Yunjin’s cultivation was low. So contracting a flying spirit beast was important for her to take an airship back to visit her grandma!
“Little Yunjin, you’re here…” The old lady’s kind voice came from inside the courtyard. As the courtyard door opened, Yino finally saw the most ordinary and typical grandma from his previous life’s memories.
However, unlike the NPC dialogue in the original story… Yunjin’s current grandma didn’t have eyes swollen from crying over her granddaughter’s death, nor was she lying sick in bed. She was still the healthy and hardworking grandma from Yunjin’s childhood memories.
“Oh my! Little Yunjin, this young master is…?”
“Grandma, my name is Yino. I’m Yunjin’s junior brother. You can call me Yino.” Yino smiled slightly and greeted her with the most standard introduction while handing Grandma a carefully packaged bottle of deer antler powder.
“Yesterday, Yunjin and I came to the Northern Snow Mountain for a mission. Since we happened to pass by, we brought some local specialties to visit you.”
“?…?” Yino was smooth-talking, and the old lady was listening with a doting expression. But when she noticed her granddaughter lowering her head, her flushed cheeks, and her slightly trembling lips, the initially puzzled old lady instantly realized something. Her brows relaxed and she beamed with joy.
She grabbed Yino, who was standing at the door, and warmly invited him in, “Oh, so you’re Yunjin’s junior brother!”
“Quick, quick, quick! It’s cold outside. Come inside too!”
….
Northern Snow Mountain, border of the Immortal Alliance’s barrier. Late into the night, the white-robed sword woman still walked alone along the transparent barrier’s edge. She held her sword, walking and using Frost Chant’s sharp edge to make marks on the snow.
At some point, the woman stopped. She sheathed her sword and looked down, only to see several messy footprints hidden in the snow beneath her feet.
“It seems that someone secretly cut off the Immortal Alliance’s barrier last night to let those Full Moon Sect disciples in,” Yuyan softly murmured, resting her cheek on her hand. After just a moment, countless faces flashed through her beautiful eyes.
“Either there’s a mole among the Immortal Alliance members stationed on the snowy mountain guarding the barrier…”
“Or there’s a mole hidden among the cultivators who came from our Wuji Sect…”
At some point, the charming smile of a red-haired girl appeared in Yuyan’s mind. As the head disciple of the Wuji Sect, Yuyan generally wouldn’t intentionally remember the characteristics of every disciple, unless they were exceptionally talented or had a close relationship with her.
But Jinyue was an exception. She wasn’t exceptionally talented, nor did she have any interactions with Yuyan. If Jinyue hadn’t always been pestering Yino, Yuyan probably wouldn’t have noticed her existence even after another ten years.
“Jiang Jinyue is very suspicious,” Yuyan said indifferently, lowering her beautiful eyes. As her words fell, she saw another stunningly beautiful woman in a black dress and white hair flying over from the distant horizon.
“Yuyan, it’s so late. The young disciples of our Wuji Sect have all taken the airship back. Why are you still here?” Yanran landed beside Yuyan, but before she could finish her greeting, she suddenly noticed the messy footprints on the snow in front of Yuyan. Instantly, the smile on Yanran’s face slipped away unnoticeably.
“It’s nothing. I’m not sleepy. I’m just investigating how the evil sect infiltrated the Immortal Alliance’s barrier last night.”
“So, did you find out anything?”
“I suspect that Jinyue girl, the one who always dresses flamboyantly and flirts with Yino every day, is the mole.”
“–!” Yanran slightly opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Yuyan glanced back, a bit curious, “What’s wrong Senior?, don’t you think she’s very suspicious?”
“She…” The black-robed woman averted her gaze. After a moment, she finally said with some relief, “She is indeed very suspicious!”
“If I remember correctly, that junior sister seems to be called Jinyue. Ever since she joined the sect, she’s been very popular among the young disciples. Even many male disciples with exceptional talent have confessed their love to her… But as things stand, she seems to have fallen in love at first sight with none other than your little lecher, hasn’t she?” Enjoy more content from
