The Heroine Made a Pact With Senior Sister (GL) Chapter 69

“Yinfeng, what do you mean by that?”
Huixue was secretly shocked. She could not help placing her hand over Liufei’s hilt. The matter of the two Snow Gods existing at the same time had always been a secret the entire Snow Domain kept hidden. That secret was guarded so tightly that even Biyuntian of the Ice Domain might not have heard of the Heaven-grade Zi-rank great demon who had once ruled the Snow Realm.
These were not things Mu Yinfeng should know.
“I did not mean anything.” Mu Yinfeng lowered her eyes and stared at Liufei hanging at Huixue’s waist. Because she was careless, she also saw Huixue’s slender waist. She restrained the desire in her heart and shook her head. “I spoke wrongly.”
Somehow, she suddenly lost interest in which Snow God Huixue truly was. Whether Huixue was the true Snow God or a Heaven-grade Zi-rank evil being, Huixue was still Huixue and no one else.
Red light flowed faintly over the blood vine on her wrist, bringing a faint burning pain. Mu Yinfeng quickly gathered her thoughts. Even though the blood vine had submitted to her, the restriction Yimu placed on it still applied to her.
“Senior Sister, we should go back.”
The two returned to Reed Snow Residence. Because Mu Yinfeng’s Severing Love had shaken most of her room into collapse, they could only share one bed. Mu Yinfeng crawled under the blanket and was waiting for Huixue to come up too, but saw Huixue take a cushion and sit on the floor.
“Senior Sister, why are you not coming up?” Mu Yinfeng thought Huixue wanted to cultivate, but after waiting a long time and seeing the curtain still not lifted, she could not help poking her head out to look at Huixue.
“You sleep first. I need to stabilize my spiritual root again. The Ren water spiritual root accompanied me for many years. After being forced out, my spiritual root is easily unstable right now.” Spiritual energy moved in Huixue’s palm. The moment she finished speaking, she entered meditation again.
“All right, then.” Mu Yinfeng pulled her head back. At that moment, Chuying stretched its head out from under the blanket. A pair of amber eyes stared at her without blinking, and its little paws, like fluffy white buns, kept pawing at her hand as if blaming her for disturbing its sleep.
When had Chuying come up?
But if a little cat was willing to sleep with someone, that meant it liked that person. Thinking this, Mu Yinfeng stretched out her arm. Chuying rested its head on it without hesitation. Its fluffy little head pressed close to her collarbone, and it nestled comfortably in her arms.
“Chuying, it would be nice if you were bigger, like a big pillow.” Mu Yinfeng tugged at the long fur on Chuying’s head and spoke drowsily.
Chuying moved. Its little head turned, and it looked at Mu Yinfeng. Then it quietly crawled out, shook its fur, and instantly became a great white tiger. After that, it delivered itself into Mu Yinfeng’s arms.
As Mu Yinfeng slept, she suddenly felt a furry “big pillow” on her body. She stretched her hand out and tugged at the pillow, but could not move it. So she simply wrapped her whole body around the “big pillow.” The big pillow was furry and warm. Hugging it while sleeping was extremely comfortable.
At this moment, Huixue silently stood, quietly lifted the bed curtain, and saw one person and one tiger in this position. She shook her head lightly. Blue light flashed in her palm, and an ice blade appeared between her fingers.
Holding the ice blade, she slowly reached toward Mu Yinfeng and pressed it to Mu Yinfeng’s neck.
A cold feeling came over her. Mu Yinfeng shivered from the chill and opened her eyes.
If she had still been half asleep and confused about what was happening before, now she was fully awake when she saw the giant pillow lying in her arms. No matter who they were, anyone’s first reaction to seeing themselves hugging a tiger while sleeping would be horror, not joy, even if they liked tigers very much.
“You slept Chuying back into its true form.” Huixue smiled and touched the ice blade to Chuying’s neck. Although thick fur lay between them, Chuying still felt the chill. When it opened its eyes and saw Huixue, it was so frightened that it tucked its tail and shrank back into its little cat form.
“I…” Mu Yinfeng was a little embarrassed. She had recovered from the shock of seeing Chuying’s white tiger form, but she still could not understand why Chuying had been a cute little cat before sleep and a majestic white tiger after waking.
“Forget it. Yinfeng, do you want to dual cultivate with me?”
“What?!” Mu Yinfeng’s jaw nearly fell to the ground.
But when she looked into Huixue’s eyes, Huixue was completely serious, as if she did not feel there was anything improper about the words dual cultivate.
“Long nights are indeed a little hard to endure.” Huixue turned and looked into the deep night sky. A lonely, cold crescent moon hung in the treetops. Its shadow fell through the gauze window into the room, shifting and desolate.
“I…”
Mu Yinfeng’s cheeks flushed. Looking at Huixue through the curtain, the beauty was like a flower beyond the clouds. With her figure dim and hazy, she made the imagination wander most.
Although Mu Yinfeng had long had such thoughts, she knew deeply that her future was uncertain. In the cultivation world, once two people formed a pact, they had to be loyal to each other. Life and death, honor and disgrace would be linked together. They would advance and retreat as one, without complaint.
Now, she did not really want Huixue to be forced to bind herself to her. The current Huixue did not know that the future Mu Yinfeng would be the executor of the heavenly prophecy, a demon lord whose name made the entire cultivation world turn pale.
“Only dual cultivation. No pact.” Huixue seemed to see through Mu Yinfeng’s thoughts. She turned back and pulled Mu Yinfeng into her arms, squeezing Chuying until it had no place to stay. Angry, Chuying jumped off the bed.
“No pact…” Mu Yinfeng repeated, staring at Huixue in shock. How was Huixue’s wording any different from a scumbag man sleeping with someone and refusing to give them status?
“Yinfeng?” Huixue took Mu Yinfeng’s hand. The instant their fingers interlocked, Huixue felt a faint heat rise on the back of her left hand, and three wind patterns lit up.
Mu Yinfeng now vaguely understood what Huixue meant and smiled bitterly as she moved closer.
Inside the plain gauze bed curtain, black and white intertwined. Spiritual light spilled beyond the curtain. Before long, the woven light flared brightly, shooting straight into the clouds and tearing through the night.
The commotion drew many disciples out of their rooms to watch. Few disciples in Hanyou Valley could make such a huge disturbance. But when they confirmed that the spiritual energy field came from Reed Snow Residence, their expressions became stranger than the last.
“If I remember correctly, Senior Sister and Junior Sister Mu live together, right?”
“This seems to be two streams of spiritual energy…”
“…Could Senior Sister and Junior Sister Mu be fighting?”
The scene fell into a strange silence.
Everyone present looked at the young woman who had said the last sentence with eyes that said she could not be taught. Then they were surprised to discover that the person was Lin Qiudi.
“Junior Sister Lin, what made you reach that conclusion?”
“How could such fierce spiritual energy be released unless they were fighting?” Lin Qiudi glanced at the center of the spiritual energy field. This spiritual energy was extremely strong. Even on the fighting stage, she had never seen such terrifying spiritual energy sweeping into the sky.
Was this Mu Yinfeng and Huixue’s true strength?
A young man nearby coughed lightly and smiled faintly. “Actually, it may not be a fight. Sometimes dual cultivation can also produce this kind of possibility.”
“Senior Sister and Junior Sister Mu are both women. How could women dual cultivate?”
Chang Zui, standing to the side, could no longer listen. He sprang up on his toes, activated his movement art, and rushed toward the spiritual energy field.
At the center of the spiritual energy field, the two women pressed their palms together. Spiritual energy connected through their palms. For a moment, both Mu Yinfeng and Huixue felt the spiritual energy in their bodies move much faster than usual. The quality of their spiritual energy had also improved to different degrees.
The traces of Ren water in Huixue’s body were removed even more completely. If she did not deliberately look inward, she would not even notice that a Ren water spiritual root had once been fused into her body. Huixue’s spiritual energy slowly flowed through Mu Yinfeng’s meridians, washing through them like water. Then, like water flowing away, it left no trace. It did not damage the five-element balance. Instead, it made Mu Yinfeng’s chaos spiritual energy even purer.
The two looked at each other, delight in both their eyes. Both of them could feel their improvement.
“So this is what Senior Sister meant by dual cultivation?” Mu Yinfeng lowered her eyes slightly and asked, embarrassed.
She had thought dual cultivation meant that kind of thing. Now she discovered it was only the literal meaning. Dual cultivation was cultivating together.
“Then what did Yinfeng think it was?” Huixue stared at the three pale green wind patterns rising on the back of her hand and asked with a smile.
“…Nothing.” Mu Yinfeng hurriedly said. At that moment, Chuying cried out and jumped onto her knees. Its paw also pushed at Mu Yinfeng’s hand, stopping her and Huixue from continuing to interlock fingers.
Mu Yinfeng lowered her head and used petting Chuying to ease her embarrassment. Although Huixue still wanted to continue cultivating, seeing that Mu Yinfeng’s mind was already disturbed, she had to give up. When cultivating, one’s mind had to be calm and clear. Otherwise, it was very possible to suffer qi deviation.
At that moment, the blood vine quietly stretched out a little bud and wrapped it around Mu Yinfeng’s finger.
“Blood vine, is something wrong?” Mu Yinfeng asked softly.
A weak voice sounded in her heart. It was like a little girl’s voice, clear and crisp. “Yinfeng, do not let your mind wander, or I can completely punish you.”
Was this the self-awareness born from the blood vine?
She had heard that once a spiritual artifact reached a certain level, it could share its holder’s thoughts, but she had not known a spiritual artifact could communicate with its holder. Even Liufei and Severing Love, which could be called divine artifacts, could not do this. Yet the blood vine could!
“I will not think those things.”
“That is best.” The voice was still crisp, making Mu Yinfeng a little restless. But the blood vine kept speaking without restraint. “Do not think the ice-snow seal is useful. Even if the ice-snow seal works, if you truly dare have those thoughts, do not expect to be fine.”
“Then what will you do?” Mu Yinfeng could not help teasing it.
“Then I will destroy myself. Think for yourself what would happen to you.”
The voice was innocent and sweet. Its content was full of malice.
A mere witch clan member triggering a restriction to self-destruct from some distance away had been hard for her to block alone, let alone a high-level spiritual object like the blood vine self-destructing right against her skin.
Only then did Mu Yinfeng realize she was not good at barrier arts. The barriers she laid were truly weak. Every art had its specialist. Everyone had things they were good at and things they were not. Barrier arts were her shortcoming.
“All right, all right. I will not say it.” Mu Yinfeng said helplessly. “But I am wondering, what was Yimu’s purpose in giving you to me?”
“To monitor you, of course,” the blood vine said mercilessly. “And by the way, here is a reminder. An enemy is coming.”
As it spoke, the blood vine instantly shone bright red. Vines rose from the ground around Mu Yinfeng and immediately pierced through the roof of Reed Snow Residence. Their speed was almost at the limit. Huixue had no time to stop them.
Blood-colored vines shot through the air. The sound of vines cutting through wind rang out again and again. Then a scream came.
The air filled with the scent of blood.
Human blood.
