Chapter 387 – Senior Sister Was Actually Drugged

In an instant, only a lone man and woman remained in the hall.

One could easily imagine how peculiarly delicate the atmosphere had become.

Faced with this, Ye Kuang couldn’t help but feel as if sitting on pins and needles, clearly unable to conceal his discomfort. Eventually, he spoke up directly: “Just say it, Senior Sister. Did you need something from me?”

Little did he know, his words only made him seem rather clueless about romance.

“What? Can’t I come find you without a reason?” As she spoke, Yun Mengshu’s ears inexplicably flushed with a faint rosy hue.

Seeing this, even though Ye Kuang didn’t understand matters of the heart, he deeply sensed that this senior sister seemed to have developed special feelings for him.

At this thought, his gaze unconsciously drifted downward, and he soon felt his nostrils warming up as if some liquid might flow out.

On the other hand, Yun Mengshu wasn’t surprised to see how the fellow before her had gone from wide-eyed astonishment to putting on a sanctimonious act in the blink of an eye.

After all, if Ye Kuang ever took the initiative, that would truly be an earth-shattering spectacle.

She slowly approached with light steps, boldly seating herself beside a certain “wild one,” then fixed her almond-shaped phoenix eyes on him.

Regardless of the potency of her gaze, Ye Kuang appeared somewhat overwhelmed.

So much so that as their body temperatures sharply rose, he could even sense waves of warmth radiating from Yun Mengshu’s body.

This was indeed a case where even if the lady was willing, the gentleman was not, yet peculiar sensations still arose in the moment.

Yun Mengshu: “What’s wrong, Junior Brother? You seem afraid to look at your senior sister?”

Only upon saying this did she realize how embarrassing her earlier behavior had been, yet she continued staring with her sparkling, blinking eyes at the blockhead before her.

Witnessing this scene, Ye Kuang instinctively shifted his rear backward, unable to conceal a pitiful sense of defeat.

His expression seemed to say: “Senior Sister, please spare your junior brother. If we keep playing like this, aren’t you afraid I might lose control?”

“Giggle…” How could Yun Mengshu not understand? Then, for some reason, she suddenly burst into light laughter: “Alright, I was just teasing you. Look how scared you are.”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang finally breathed an inward sigh of relief.

It had to be said, when it came to this senior sister, he clearly had no recourse—he could only admire from afar, not daring to get too deeply involved.

Leaving aside Yun Mengshu’s true identity, merely the title of Senior Disciple of Kun Dao Academy was enough to make countless men hesitate.

After all, Ye Kuang had no desire to be drowned in spit by the senior sisters of Kunlun.

“Tell me, the Kunlun Secret Realm wouldn’t just let you out so easily. Has something happened?”

“Sigh, nothing really escapes you…”

Ye Kuang was momentarily stunned upon hearing this.

He had only randomly brought up a topic to defuse the situation earlier, never expecting to have spoken it into existence.

At this thought, Ye Kuang turned back again and asked anxiously: “What major event occurred?”

Yun Mengshu clearly hesitated to speak, then suddenly stood up and walked straight to the kitchen.

After who knows how long, she finally returned gracefully carrying a water pot and two white bowls.

Ye Kuang: “Senior Sister, what are you doing?”Yun Mengshu: “What else could it be? Do you know how far I’ve traveled searching for you, Senior Sister? How much hardship I’ve endured? I’ve just spent a long time speaking with your elders, and you didn’t even ask if I’m thirsty?”

Ye Kuang: “…”

Yun Mengshu: “What? Are you afraid Senior Sister would poison your drink…”

As she spoke, her fair face showed inexplicable anger, suddenly adopting an injured expression.

Seeing this, Ye Kuang could only offer an awkward smile: “How could that be? Even if Senior Sister really did poison it, this Junior Brother would still drink it all in one go.”

Instantly, Yun Mengshu couldn’t help feeling secretly overjoyed upon hearing this, and blurted out as if guided by some mysterious force: “Really?”

Ye Kuang: “Well… falsehoods can’t become truth, and truths can’t become falsehoods.”

At this point, he couldn’t help muttering to himself, his inner thoughts actually running quite differently: Ah, this uncontrollable hypocrisy of mine, it’s too fake! How could I degrade myself like this? Forget it, I’d better get rid of this woman quickly.

Meanwhile, Yun Mengshu poured two bowls of hot water, then picked up one and began blowing on it to cool it down.

Watching this charming gesture, Ye Kuang couldn’t help but feel a wave of heat rushing through his body.

He could only imitate her by picking up the other bowl, bringing it to his lips in the same manner.

It must be said that drinking water used to be as simple as passing gas, yet now it felt as difficult as climbing mountains of blades or diving into seas of fire.

Only after they had both finished drinking did Yun Mengshu slowly reveal the purpose of her visit.

She had come to request Ye Kuang’s assistance in saving Kunlun!

At that moment, even the person involved was shocked to his core by this explosive news.

Kunlun had fallen?

Was it true?

Ye Kuang: “Senior Sister, you must be joking, right?”

As he spoke, his expression still showed some doubt.

But who would have thought that Yun Mengshu, unable to control her emotions, suddenly embraced him and began weeping bitterly, tears and sniffles flowing freely.

“Kunlun has truly fallen. I barely escaped with my life. I originally didn’t want to trouble you, but… but… sob… I don’t know who else to turn to for help…”

With each word she uttered through her sobs, her body trembled uncontrollably.

Witnessing this scene, Ye Kuang couldn’t help but feel as if he were experiencing it himself.

One could say that with her home destroyed, Yun Mengshu was powerless. Wanting to seek help but not knowing who to turn to – if this were someone else, they would probably…

This made it foreseeable how long Yun Mengshu had been suppressing her emotions, and how pitiful their outburst would be.

Even Ye Kuang, who had initially been somewhat annoyed at being suddenly embraced by Yun Mengshu, grew increasingly shocked as he listened, eventually allowing the beauty in his arms to fully release her inner vulnerability.

In this moment, though he hadn’t witnessed it himself, he could imagine: this Senior Sister had been drifting abroad for years, not only without anyone to rely on, but constantly living in fear. The hardships she had endured finally erupted completely only after meeting him, Ye Kuang – enough to make countless men admire her resilience.

Yun Mengshu: “Senior Sister has reached the end of her road. Out here in this strange, unpredictable world, the only person I could think of is you, Junior Brother Ye. Only you can help us overcome this crisis…”Hearing this, Ye Kuang couldn’t deny being moved.

He truly hadn’t expected that the always strong-willed Senior Sister Yun would appear so pitiable.

Just from Yun Mengshu’s trembling figure, it wasn’t hard to guess she must have endured many grievances. Only now had she finally shed her tough facade, crying like a delicate pear blossom bathed in rain, resembling a vulnerable woman.

Soon he noticed Yun Mengshu’s weeping growing increasingly helpless, as if deeply afraid the person before her would pay no heed.

Little did he know, an intoxicating body fragrance was swirling around Ye Kuang’s nostrils, suddenly making him feel overwhelmingly feverish without even realizing it!

Stirred by his youthful vigor, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat flirtatious.

Only after a moment, when the scorching sensation grew increasingly alarming, did Ye Kuang finally sense something was amiss with himself.

In that instant, his entire bloodstream seemed to boil as if burning, making it strikingly difficult to restrain his impulses.

Even Yun Mengshu began breathing rapidly, her face flushed crimson, her gaze growing dazed.

“Senior Sister, what scent is that on you?”

“Junior Brother Ye, what are you talking about? Senior Sister… has no scent on her? What’s happening? Why do I feel so feverish all over…”

“What? Damn… this fragrance is problematic, uhmm…”

“What are you saying? Junior Brother Ye… Senior Sister has liked you for a long time, I’m so hot…”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang also felt dizziness washing over his mind, actually becoming somewhat disoriented.

His final coherent thought was strikingly: Is this fragrance some kind of potent tonic? What the hell… Senior Sister, you’ve actually been drugged…
