I Find Her Disgusting Chapter 108

Jiang Xidai’s sword tip trembled, then suddenly slashed down fiercely. Fortunately, Alano was somewhat prepared and, in the nick of time, dodged the sharp, blood-red sword wind. The force slammed into the soft carpet, tearing a large gash and even sending a few tufts of fluff flying.
Alano looked at the tragic scene before her, caressing her well-endowed chest, panting in fear. “If you don’t agree, you don’t agree. Why get so angry?”
“Do you think this Seat is too lazy to kill you?” Jiang Xidai was so angry she laughed.
“How should I put it,” Alano said innocently. “I was actually quite afraid of you at first. But after observing for a few days, especially your attitude towards that little girl beside you, ah, I, Alano, am very good at reading people. Big sister is definitely not some cruel-natured person…”
“Get out.” Jiang Xidai closed her eyes and frowned, seemingly annoyed by her chatter. “What are you to even compare with her? Don’t dirty this Seat’s territory.”
Alano skillfully begged for mercy and apologized, finally earning a sliver of forgiveness. As she turned her back, however, she didn’t seem particularly heartbroken, but rolled her eyes and left dejectedly, hugging her cat. She went around the main hall of Qionghua Hall.
A few leaders who had come from afar, her so-called “friends,” were waiting for her news.
“Ah… no luck.” Alano spread her hands. “I thought she had changed her ways, but she’s the same as before. The way she looked at me, it was as if she saw something filthy.”
Another woman, dressed in a bluish-gray robe with a jade bead hairpin in her hair, had a faint shimmer of scales at the corner of her eye. “So conservative?” she said with some regret. “Dual cultivating with her would surely be twice as effective.”
“Yes, all benefits and no harm,” Alano said, rubbing her neck. “But don’t try it. Be careful you don’t really get split in two. This time, I was quick to dodge. If it were you, it would be hard to say.”
The few leaders who came to the Shasheng Sect didn’t necessarily have to have some kind of relationship with Jiang Xidai. It was just that they couldn’t help but feel apprehensive. After all, with Jiang Xidai’s strength, she didn’t need them at all to unify the cultivation world… so they were just to lie around in the Shasheng Sect and enjoy the abundant spiritual energy?
Such a free lunch sounded too much like a dream.
Alano’s words were quick, persuading the other leaders not to try to get close to Jiang Xidai anymore, but she—she hadn’t given up. She had just cleverly changed her target.
If she couldn’t be a bed partner, being a close friend was also good. Maybe she could even get some benefits?
But she was completely unaware that Yan Huirou happened to be passing by Qionghua Hall at that moment. She wasn’t looking for Jiang Xidai, just taking a shortcut, and happened to overhear this scene. Through a crack in the open door, she could vaguely see the figures of Jiang Xidai and that woman.
Yan Huirou couldn’t help but stop.
Although Chen Cha’an had always opposed this match, for some reason, she was filled with righteous indignation. How dare this sister try to steal her corner!! Go, go, go, we won’t take this grievance—Yan Yan?
Yan Yan? Why are you not moving?
Yan Huirou, as if waking from a dream, shook her head. “I’m fine… and I don’t mind.”
Don’t mind? Who are you kidding. Chen Cha’an said quickly, Relax, your daughter probably won’t agree.
“It was to be expected.”
Hiss… you’re talking like you’re entrusting your child on your deathbed. Chen Cha’an sighed. Alright, that is indeed the situation right now.
Yan Huirou, as if nothing had happened, shared the work with Wen Xianyin. The disciples, being cultivators, were extremely quick. In just two days, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. The newly accepted foreign disciples were also all settled in.
“The funds of our Shasheng Sect can’t always rely on the Sect Master alone. The rest of the disciples are either slacking off or just going with the flow.”
“This isn’t good,” Yan Huirou said to Wen Xianyin. “We need to link the reward system to contributions to the sect, and set up assessments for cultivation levels every ten years.”
“Mmm.” Wen Xianyin: “I’ll write a draft tomorrow. Anyway, the Sect Master doesn’t like to handle these things. If Miss Yan thinks it’s okay, we can implement it.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“It’s a small matter.” Wen Xianyin sighed, for once speaking her true thoughts. “For me, clear requirements are simpler than trying to guess the Sect Master’s mood every day.”
“Is that so?” Yan Huirou couldn’t help but laugh. “But the Sect Master is very easy to understand, not complicated at all.”
Wen Xianyin: “…Miss Yan, not everyone can openly stare at the Sect Master for a long time like you.”
Yeah… even though I know Jiang Xidai can’t see me, Chen Cha’an chimed in, sometimes my heart still pounds when our eyes accidentally meet.
Yan Huirou smiled and turned to leave.
In Bright Moon Pavilion, Yan Huirou sat on the bed, hugging her knees, allowing herself a brief moment of vulnerability. After all, witnessing Alano making a pass at Jiang Xidai, she was only outwardly unaffected.
In her heart… She hoped she would no longer be lonely. Even if not completely intimate, at least she would have someone to talk to. She hoped her heart could become independent, not bound by love, and live a much more carefree life. This way, when the day of separation came, Jiang Xidai wouldn’t collapse.
But the unwillingness was equally clear. Because Yan Huirou knew that no one would love her more than she did. And no one was more suitable for her than she was.
I’ve noticed you haven’t been looking for her much these past few days, Yan Yan. Are you also paving the way?
“Is it so obvious that even you can see it?”
“It’s a good thing she hasn’t noticed…” Yan Huirou buried her face in her arms, her forehead pressed against them, tears flowing in the darkness, dripping onto her legs, suddenly sobbing uncontrollably.
Why are you suddenly crying? Don’t cry. Chen Cha’an on the other end was flustered, a rustling sound for a while. Do you regret coming here? But since you’ve already done it, there’s no way back. Just go with the flow.
“I don’t regret it.” Yan Huirou rubbed her eyes and smiled again. “At least, I made her happy.”
Calm down. You’re crying and laughing at the same time… Chen Cha’an’s voice softened to coax her. Your mental fluctuations are very strong; the detection instruments on my side are starting to alarm.
Yan Huirou calmed her emotions for a while, and indeed, she returned to her normal state not long after. She looked in the mirror to see her eyes were no longer red, then quietly left Bright Moon Pavilion, planning to return to Qionghua Hall.
Before seeing Jiang Xidai, she had already put on an easygoing and relaxed expression. It was hard to say whether she was very good at regulating her emotions or had just become accustomed to controlling her expressions.
Seeing her like this, Chen Cha’an had a strange sense of familiarity. As far as she knew, Yan Huirou was the same with her sister when she was working hard to support her family. The burden of life was too heavy, and people who had no time to breathe were like that. It wasn’t that they weren’t tired, but that they were unwilling to bring their negative emotions to their loved ones.
“Has the Sect Master gone out?” To her surprise, Qionghua Hall was empty.
Bi Luo happened to be wiping the main gate of Qionghua Hall. She casually replied, “She went out. To settle accounts with that Li Xinghe kid.”
? She’s always so swift and decisive in such matters.
To be safe, Yan Huirou asked in her mind, “So she won’t get into trouble for killing the male lead?”
Probably not. The plotline has already completely collapsed anyway. It’s not like you died, and I’m not that AI idiot, so I won’t restart it for you again.
Yan Huirou was relieved.
After finishing the day’s work, and with Jiang Xidai away, she found she had nothing to do. Just like before, after her sister was gone, she was alone at home, with no motivation to even eat or drink. Only when she was fully immersed in work could she briefly find her own value.
Thinking about it, this pursuit of value, she seemed to have unconsciously bestowed it upon Jiang Xidai as well…
Stop. Internal strife is meaningless. Yan Huirou stopped overthinking. She went to get the four dogs raised by the Shasheng Sect, preparing to take them for a walk. She hadn’t seen them for a long time, and letting these black dogs eat and sleep in the Shasheng Sect had made them all grow strong and sturdy. They now surrounded Yan Huirou, almost half as tall as her calves. Very imposing.
But for some reason, little Shangshan was particularly disobedient today, constantly sniffing around her, sometimes even jumping up on her, almost pushing Yan Huirou over.
Yan Huirou tightened the leash. “The older you get, the naughtier you are.”
A paw swiped up and knocked the storage ring off Yan Huirou’s finger. The ring fell and rolled far away. Yan Huirou hurriedly went to pick it up, because that storage ring contained key items—the Dragon Spring Sword and the Universe Pouch.
Shangshan was already a spirit dog. It could open the storage ring, and in an instant, it pulled out the ancient Dragon Spring Sword and the Universe Pouch, throwing them both on the ground.
Yan Huirou: “…What does this mean?”
Seeing she still didn’t understand, Shangshan circled a few times, quickly digging two holes in the ground, dropped the two divine artifacts in, and then kicked dirt over them with its hind legs.
“You don’t like these two things?” A standard doggy smile, with no understanding.
Shangshan then took the two items out again and made a tearing motion, which was not its usual behavior. She remembered that in a casual chat once, the Sect Master had told her that this dog she had picked up was a rare spirit beast that could smell treasures.
Yan Huirou pondered for a long time, then her heart suddenly jumped. “Are you saying there’s a problem with these two things?”
The black dog let out a loud series of howls, becoming much more excited. It seemed she had guessed correctly.
“Are they fakes?”
“Awoof! Awoof!”
“Impossible,” Yan Huirou murmured. “I switched them with my own hands, from Li Xinghe…”
Yan Huirou suddenly thought of a possibility. What if, at that time, the treasures on the male lead were already not the real ones? There was indeed such a possibility, which couldn’t be ruled out. Yan Huirou stood up, her eyes widening.
Then… Jiang Xidai…
Her brow furrowed. She hastily picked up the storage ring from the ground, drew the “Golden Tower Jade Palace” from her waist, and held it in her palm. Yan Huirou held the leashes in one hand, unfastened the other three dogs, and stroked Shangshan’s head. “Are you familiar with Jiang Xidai’s scent? Where is she now? Take me to her, quickly.”
