Ch. 249 - I Know You're An Asshole!

The stars were scarce, and a bright full moon could be seen hanging in the sky through the skylight of the main house.

The smell of wine and roasted chicken wafted through the hall.

Ye Anping sat on one side of the table speechlessly while Yun Jiujiu, on the opposite side, was already drunk, occasionally burping toward him with a dazed look. Her round face had turned red as if it were about to ripen.

Sitting beside him, Feng Yu Die didn't fare any better.

She had finished five roasted chickens all alone and drank plenty of strong liquor. Her belly bulged as if she were ten months pregnant, and she was now lying flat on the ground, fast asleep.

"Hiccup..." Yun Jiujiu let out a hiccup and looked at Ye Anping's calm face with squinted eyes. "You really can hold your liquor, huh~~ You've drunk so much but still not showing it... not showing it... Hey...burp---watch out for those feet!!!"

Bang---

Ye Anping raised his hand to catch the right foot suddenly lifted by Feng Yu Die, then sighed lightly and replied to Yun Jiujiu, "Wine is also a kind of poison, and poison has no effect on me."

"Oh... that's pretty good... hiccup--"

Plop--

After saying the last sentence, Yun Jiujiu tilted her head and fell on the carpet with a thump. The moment she closed her eyes, she fell asleep and started snoring.

Speechless, Ye Anping looked at the two people lying on the ground in a drunken state and felt helpless. He stood up and went outside for some fresh air.

Walking out of the house, Ye Anping looked up at the sky and felt somewhat worried. It was already evening; why hadn't Yun Yiyi returned yet?

Logically speaking, Yun Yiyi and her younger sister should not have talked for so long. In fact, if she wanted to talk to Yun Xi, she would most likely be turned away.

Although the Jade Snow Peak incident eased the relationship between Yun Yiyi and Yun Jiujiu, the situation between Yun Yiyi and Yun Xi was still tense.

Yun Xi would definitely not let Yun Yiyi enter her house. Even if she wanted to speak, she would send Yun Yiyi away with just two sentences.

But why hadn't Yun Yiyi returned yet?

What on earth did she and her sister talk about for so long?

Still puzzled, Ye Anping walked into the courtyard and looked at the bright moon in the sky with his hands behind his back, thinking that it was time to make the final preparations.

Before Yun Yiyi and her companions entered the forbidden area, he had to go in with his sister to set up some formations and traps inside so that they wouldn't end up dead in Yun Kunwu's hands later.

Tap tap---

As Ye Anping was thinking about this, he suddenly heard light footsteps behind him, raising his alertness. However, recognizing Yun Yiyi's footsteps, he let out a sigh of relief and pretended not to notice as he continued to look at the moon.

"Young Master Ye, why are you alone outside?"

"I came out to get some air; those two are drunk."

Ye Anping turned around and carefully observed the expression on Yun Yiyi's face, trying to find some clues about what she had talked about with her sister. Unfortunately, Yun Yiyi was wearing her usual impenetrable smile.

Yun Yiyi walked up to him and followed his gaze to look at the round moon hanging in the sky. Then, she tilted her head and leaned her temple against his shoulder. "The moon tonight is really beautiful."

"... Yes, a rare full moon."

Ye Anping casually responded but suddenly felt Yun Yiyi gently spreading apart his fingers with her hand and slipping her small hand into his palm.

He paused before asking, "Did you go to Night Tide Peak to find Third Lady?"

"Yes." Yun Yiyi answered with a nod.  "I talked to Yun Xi about going to the forbidden area, and by the way, I also chatted with your younger sister."

"What did you talk about?"

"Nothing much." Yun Yiyi lowered her eyes slightly and leaned closer to Ye Anping. "I originally thought she would be hostile toward me since I took you away from her. But we had a pleasant chat. She told me about your matter."

"Um..."

My matter... Ye Anping was slightly puzzled, he couldn't figure out at all what his sister would say about him, so he asked, "What did she say about me?"

"She told me about your true nature."

?

"My... true nature?"

"She said that you are an asshole who broke her bones and fed her poisonous insects when she was a child, beating her to a pulp..." Yun Yiyi narrowed her eyes as she laughed. "Young Master Ye, you look so civilized, but I didn't expect you to be like that in private."

"..."

Listening to Yun Yiyi's words, although Ye Anping's expression remained unchanged, internally he was petrified; he had never expected his sister to say this to Yun Yiyi.

He replied with a bitter smile. "Miss Yun, my sister must be joking. I don't have that kind of hobby."

"Is that so?" Yun Yiyi tilted her head and stared at Ye Anping's face. "But I feel like between you and Miss Pei, you are the one who is lying."

"Why do you think so?"

"It's just a feeling. During this time spent with you, you always gave me a very unreal feeling."

"... That's just how I am."

Yun Yiyi pursed her lips and leaned on Ye Anping, then continued, "I don't mind. If you like it, you can treat me like you do to Miss Pei. I'm also curious..."

?

"What?"

"Just kidding." Yun Yiyi shrugged slightly. "Come with me, I will show you something."

"Show me something?"

Without responding, Yun Yiyi just narrowed her eyes and smiled, then took Ye Anping's hand and ran out along the courtyard.

Ye Anping did not resist being led by Yun Yiyi as she trotted along the way, but deep down, he had some idea of what she wanted to do.

So, as they ran together, he took out a small scented bottle from his storage bag and held it in his left hand. With one hand, he slightly opened the bottle cap.

A faint floral fragrance wafted out of the bottle and dispersed into the air along the way.

After running a few dozen steps, Yun Yiyi pulled Ye Anping to a guest room in the Cloud Wine Mansion.

"We're here."

"Is this... a guest room?" Ye Anping pretended to look around at the dimly lit room and asked with feigned confusion, "Why did you bring me here?"

"Naturally, there is something we need to do."

Yun Yiyi stepped forward and pushed the door open with one hand. She pulled Ye Anping into the room before letting go of his hand, then stepped back and closed the door with her back.

"Miss Yun, what are you doing..."

Ye Anping turned around, looked at Yun Yiyi who was leaning against the door with her head down, and quickly pushed the stopper of the scented bottle, opening it completely.

The next moment, Yun Yiyi raised her hand and removed her hairpin while pulling her belt open with her right hand.

Her golden hair scattered out, illuminated by the moonlight shining through the paper window with a faint light. The robes opened on both sides as the belt slipped, and the tight chest seemed to have been released and expanded outward by an inch.

Yun Yiyi raised her head. "Young Master Ye, let's practice dual cultivation."

"..."

Ye Anping looked at her expressionlessly, and the small bottle, hidden in his left sleeve, tilted slightly.

Seeing no response from Ye Anping, Yun Yiyi slowly raised her hand as she pulled apart her gold-white outer robe and stepped closer.

"Young Master Ye, I..."

However, when she was still three steps away from Ye Anping, Yun Yiyi suddenly felt that the figure of her beloved became blurred, splitting into countless overlapping shadows.

A wave of drowsiness came over her.

Before she could react to what was happening, her eyes slowly closed, and she fell forward.

Ye Anping quickly reached out and took her into his arms to prevent her from falling directly. Then, he sighed helplessly and said to Yun Yiyi in his arms, "Miss Yun, after this matter is over, I will definitely give you a proper explanation in response to this matter, but not yet..."

He gently carried Yun Yiyi to the bed in the room, laying her down and covering her with a blanket.

He then went to the door, picked up the clothes Yun Yiyi discarded, and folded them neatly beside the pillow before walking out of the guest room.

"Phew---"

After breathing a sigh of relief, Ye Anping looked up at the sky.

However, just when his eyes were focused on the bright moon, a hot feeling suddenly rose from his lower abdomen.

Ye Anping frowned, realizing that it was time for the settlement of the actions in the Jade Snow Peak.

"At a time like this..."

He thought quickly about how to deal with this while internally checking the yang energy situation in his meridians.

Probably due to the increase in cultivation level, his meridians could now accommodate more yang energy. Therefore, this time, it did not occur as fast as before, but it was also definitely not something that Feng Yu Die could suppress with her true energy.

Ye Anping looked back at the door behind him, hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and then summoned his flying sword. He took a calming pill to suppress the yang energy for the moment and rushed toward the Night Tide Peak.
