"Rui!!"
Xiao Xiao turned her head and stuck out her tongue at Miaoxin. She didn't want this woman's favor at all. In front of Miaoxin's mind-reading ability, she was completely transparent. Being with such a person was simply too dangerous.
"Oh, not only do you ignore me, but you dare to stick out your tongue at me, little sister Xiao Xiao. It seems if I don't show you some skill, you won't know this elder sister's tricks." Miaoxin looked at Yuwen Tuo and said, "Little brother Yuwen, let me tell you, just now I asked Xiao Xiao a few questions, such as how she feels when she's with you, when she plans to get married, and if she's ready for the wedding night. Do you know what kind of images flashed through her mind then?"
"Ah——————"
Xiao Xiao's scream was a hundred times more potent than her Mengchun Six Tunes Sound Technique. Even Miaoxin's Title Douluo voice was drowned out.
This was Xiao Xiao's final resistance to preserve her reputation as a young lady. She didn't want to do this; it was all this woman's fault. Who would directly ask about the wedding night? She knew this woman had mind-reading, so she deliberately didn't answer her and tried not to think about it, but thoughts were a hundred times harder to control than the body. The more she tried not to think, the more images would unconsciously flash in her mind.
And then... there was no then. Her lifelong dignity was thus lost in front of this woman.
"Tuo Tuo, I..." Xiao Xiao looked at Yuwen Tuo with teary eyes, only hoping Yuwen Tuo wouldn't despise her.
"It's alright, Xiao Xiao, don't worry about it." Yuwen Tuo smiled slightly. Wasn't it just fantasizing? Which otaku hadn't experienced it? Moreover, Xiao Xiao was deliberately provoked by the wicked woman Miaoxin.
"Sister Miaoxin, Xiao Xiao already has a sect; it's impossible for her to take another master. Please don't scheme against her," Yuwen Tuo said.
"I didn't say I wanted her to call me Master. Teacher! Is the word 'teacher' not allowed? A person can only have one master in their life, but there's no such restriction on 'teacher'. For example, in the academy, there are tons of them." Miaoxin looked playfully at Xiao Xiao. "Come, little sister, call me 'teacher', just once, and I'll let you off, otherwise..."
"Teacher... teacher, is that enough?" Xiao Xiao called out, her small face flushed. There was no other way; this woman's mind-reading ability was too powerful; it was too easy for her to find someone's weakness.
"Good girl!" Miaoxin rubbed Xiao Xiao's head. "Your future husband has a very important task to do starting tomorrow, so from tomorrow onwards, you will train with me. I know you're good at sound techniques. The most important thing for sound techniques is to integrate emotion into the music, person and music as one, which can increase the power of sound techniques several times over. My psychic power can be very helpful to you."
Hearing this, Yuwen Tuo's eyes lit up. "Oh, that's even better! Xiao Xiao, aren't you going to thank your new teacher?"
"Thank you, Teacher!" Xiao Xiao wasn't an ungrateful person. She knew that Miaoxin could indeed be of great help to her. Moreover, she now had another idea in mind. Hadn't Miaoxin said that she couldn't read the thoughts of those whose cultivation was higher than hers? So she needed to become strong quickly. When her cultivation surpassed Miaoxin's, she wouldn't have to fear this woman anymore.
Miaoxin teased Xiao Xiao for a good while longer before returning her to Yuwen Tuo. Yuwen Tuo could actually tell that Miaoxin genuinely liked Xiao Xiao. She seemed to be a very cheerful woman, but those around her were either clumsy like Wang Yanfeng or elders like the other revered ones.
Even with Vina, Vina was the princess of the Heavenly Soul Empire. Firstly, she wasn't often in the sect, and secondly, her identity as a princess meant she couldn't play around with Miaoxin all day, which would damage the princess's image. Now that she finally had a cute and cheerful Xiao Xiao, wasn't she naturally as happy as if she had found a treasure?
The best proof was Miaoxin's concern for Xiao Xiao; she had already sent people to pick up Xiao Xiao's parents. Xiao Xiao had offended a powerful force like Shrek this time. Since she had joined the Body Sect, the Body Sect naturally had to protect her parents. In truth, Shrek probably wouldn't be so sinister as to harm Xiao Xiao's family, but Miaoxin, with her Heart as a martial soul, deeply understood the principle of always being wary of others.
Even if Shrek didn't directly act, what about certain forces that wanted to curry favor with Shrek? It was safest to bring her family into her own home, eliminating future worries.
Yuwen Tuo led Xiao Xiao to the back courtyard, to the room Wang Yanfeng had prepared for them.
"Junior brother, junior sister-in-law, look, this will be your room from now on. All the furniture is brand new, and it's been cleaned spotlessly. Feel free to move in with just your bags," Wang Yanfeng said grandly.
Yuwen Tuo quickly asked, "Wait, Senior Brother Wang, what did you say? What do you mean, 'our' room? Didn't you prepare separate rooms for Xiao Xiao and me?"
"Yes, you and Xiao Xiao, aren't you a couple? Is one room not enough? Or do you think the bed is too small? Don't worry, the big bed I prepared for you can easily fit six of you," Wang Yanfeng said matter-of-factly.
Yuwen Tuo wanted to say, that's not the reason. Although he and Xiao Xiao had confirmed their relationship, it was still very new. Sharing a bed or anything like that felt a bit too soon. Just as he was about to continue, Xiao Xiao spoke first, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wang. This room is very nice, I like it very much."
Wang Yanfeng laughed, "Haha, as long as Junior Sister-in-law likes it. You two have traveled far; get some rest early today. I'll take my leave now, junior brother. If you need anything, just tell me."
With that, Wang Yanfeng turned and left, thoughtfully closing the door for the two of them.
"Xiao Xiao, why did you..." Yuwen Tuo was about to ask.
Xiao Xiao once again looked at Yuwen Tuo first, saying, "Does Tuo Tuo dislike me?"
Yuwen Tuo smiled, "Of course not. Then, you sit for a bit; I'll go get you some water. This period has been really exhausting. Now that things have finally settled, let's get a good night's rest first."
Xiao Xiao, a girl, didn't hesitate or object, so why should he, a man, demur? One thing Wang Yanfeng said was right: he and Xiao Xiao were a couple. Xiao Xiao was so good to him, and he would definitely take her back to meet his master and master's wife in the future, so one room was perfectly fine.
"Mm, thank you, Tuo Tuo!" Xiao Xiao nodded joyfully. The reason she was so proactive was that she was afraid Yuwen Tuo might think she was a bad girl and distance himself after hearing Miaoxin's words earlier. Now, seeing that Yuwen Tuo didn't mind at all, her mood immediately improved.
Late at night, the two lay on a large bed, each under their own quilt. The room Wang Yanfeng prepared was indeed good, luxurious and comfortable.
After all, both of them were still young; nothing really could happen. Yuwen Tuo looked at the ceiling and said, "Xiao Xiao, starting tomorrow, we will embrace a completely different life."
"Mm, as long as I'm with Tuo Tuo, I'm willing to live any kind of life," Xiao Xiao said softly, snuggling closer to Yuwen Tuo, her head resting on his chest.
Yuwen Tuo smiled faintly, stroking her hair. The two hugged and slowly drifted into slumber.
This was the most comfortable night's sleep he had had in the more than ten years since he arrived in this world, since his village was destroyed at the age of four.
All the suffering caused by Shrek was now behind them.
Starting tomorrow, his life would undergo tremendous changes.
Next, he would diligently cultivate, take good care of Xiao Xiao, and then fulfill his ideals: save people, seek revenge, and repay kindness!
