Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 288: Marriage Certificate; Senior Sister’s Secret

You Su was also dumbfounded, panicked, and hurriedly explained:
"Master's wife, you misunderstood! I didn't! How could I do such a thing!"

He Shutong's beautiful eyes flickered, and she suppressed the excitement in her heart.

She thought calmly and knew that You Su would not be that kind of person.

The puppy-like appearance of You Su a few days ago was still deeply imprinted in her mind, but as the saying goes, "food and sex are human nature", it is normal for You Su, a young man full of blood and vigor, to be a little unrestrained with his Taoist partner...

A gentleman is moved by emotion but restrained by propriety. He Shutong doesn't believe that you would really let You Su do such a dirty thing as deceiving a stupid girl.

"It seems... you have already established your relationship."

She sighed lightly, thinking that the two people came to get her permission, but she didn't expect that they were just here to inform her. This made her feel a little lost, as she could only live in this lotus pond. It felt like the children had grown up without her noticing...

You Su raised his eyebrows slightly. Although his master's wife's words might not have any other meaning, it sounded very strange to him. He felt as if he had become a rascal who abducted ignorant girls.

"Uh-huh."

Wangshu nodded slightly.

"Sister..."

You Su felt that it was necessary to clarify something. He had never discussed the matter of confirming their relationship with his senior sister. He came to see his master's wife to seek a witness.

"Do you know what a Taoist companion means?"

"I know."

Wangshu blinked his eyes, as if to say, "I'm not stupid."

"Then when did you become my Taoist partner?"

Wangshu rubbed the snow-white fox fur around his neck and said with a curved eyebrow:

"It was when Junior Brother gave me the snow fox fur coat."

Snow fox fur?
You Sumo's brows slightly frowned, and he suddenly remembered that when the eleventh elder gave him the snow fox fur, he left a letter asking him to "give it to a good spouse".

He did not care at the time. The original intention of the Eleventh Elder's words was definitely not to really let him give the gift to his sweetheart. Combined with the previous and next congratulatory words, it was more of a joke, allowing him to pass the gift on.

Moreover, when he gave the snow fox fur to his senior sister, he remembered that he had put the congratulatory message aside. Did he take it back to his senior sister?
Wangshu noticed Yousu's doubts. She took out a bright red greeting card and explained to herself:
"Eleventh Elder asked me to give this fox fur to my good partner, so I gave it to you. I asked Master what good partner meant, and then I learned that good partner means Taoist partner. I accepted the fox fur, doesn't it mean I am your Taoist partner?"

Seeing this, You Su thought to himself that it was just as expected. He Shutong heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, as long as the two of them didn't taste the forbidden fruit.

In fact, she had already noticed the soft fox fur wrapped around Wangshu's goose neck. For this calm-minded girl, it was rare for her to be so obsessed with something.

"No wonder Wangshu couldn't let go of this fox fur coat. She always wore it every time I saw her. It turns out that you gave the token of love to your senior sister long before you passed the public notice period."

As He Shutong said this, he looked at You Su, trying to see something.

I sighed quietly in my heart. How long had Yousu been on the mountain when the public notice period just passed? He hadn't been with Wangshu for long... Could it be that he had been planning to get Wangshu since then?
You Su felt like he had no way to defend himself. At that time, he really didn't have any other thoughts towards his senior sister, so he quickly explained the whole story.

He Shutong also read the congratulatory message and felt that the "good couple" in the message actually means "good woman".

"So, didn't Junior Brother want to become my Taoist partner at that time?"

Wangshu asked softly, sounding a little lost.

You Su pursed his lips and suddenly felt that he was stupid and ridiculous. Why should he care about such insignificant face?
How could someone come to propose marriage but try hard to deny his feelings for the girl?

"Rather than saying it was a misunderstanding, it's more like when I gave this fur coat to Senior Sister, I subconsciously felt that Senior Sister would one day become my 'good match'."

You Su looked at Wangshu sincerely, even though his eyes were unfocused, but he knew that this girl could see what he was thinking.

"Not on that day, but today."

Wangshu lowered his head slightly and hummed softly, as soft as a mosquito.

He Shutong looked at the two of them quietly through the mist, with the corners of her mouth raised naturally, as if she also felt the youthful breath of love.

"It seems you don't need my consent anymore."

"How could that be? Master's wife's consent is very important to me!"

Having said that, You Su prepared to present his greetings and propose marriage.

He Shutong smiled and nodded, holding up You Su's knees in the air:

"Don't kneel so quickly. It's not uncommon for fellow disciples to become Taoist couples. I am naturally pleased to see the close relationship between my disciples. But there are some things I must make clear before I witness this for you."

"Master, please speak."

You Su couldn't wait to show his determination.

"I'll ask Wangshu first."

Wangshu was suddenly called, and he quickly smoothed the down feathers on his fox fur coat, standing as straight as a student being tested by his teacher in class.

"I have raised you since you were very young. Now that I think about it, you are just like my daughter who I have raised since childhood, even though... you are really worry-free. I used to think that you were the purest fairy in the world, but it seems that fairies will also have a day when they become mortals. Or maybe, the one who becomes mortal is not a fairy, but a real... person."

Wangshu listened to He Shutong obediently, and she also regarded He Shutong as her mother. He Shutong's deep feelings were a bit tortuous, but she could hear that the master was saying that she had become like a real person.

"Since you are a real person, are you sure you understand what a Taoist couple is?"

Wangshu hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily.

"I like my junior brother, and I want to be with him forever."

"it is good."

He Shutong felt the girl's determination, so he stopped asking like a nagging woman:
"Although your junior brother is younger than you, he is definitely someone worth keeping by your side. He doesn't have any major flaws, but there is one thing you need to understand. Did you know that your junior brother and Ling Ruo are also a couple?"

You Su's mouth twitched. He felt a little embarrassed to be tortured in front of his "mother-in-law".

"Yeah." Wangshu nodded blankly.

"Do you know that your junior brother is involved with Ling Ruo's sister in addition to Ling Ruo? If he has the ability in the future, he will definitely not let go of Ling Ruo's sister. In this way, you will share a Taoist partner with two other people, and even in the future, this number will only increase. Can you accept this?"

As a parent, if conditions permit, who would be willing to marry their daughter to someone else as a concubine?

You Su had no way to refute, and could only acquiesce to Master's wife's guess that "maybe there will be more", silently waiting for Master's sister's answer.

"Is Junior Sister's elder sister... a good person?"

Wangshu asked Yousu, and Yousu straightened his back slightly:
"Ms. Xueruo is of course a good person."

"That's good!" Wangshu said excitedly, "Junior sister is the first, Junior sister sister is the second, and I am the third. If I suddenly compete with them for Junior Brother, they won't be reluctant to share with me, right?"

"They will be willing." You Su said firmly.

At least Junior Sister should be willing. As for Xueruo... I can only try to get her when the time comes.

"I can accept that!"

In fact, Wangshu’s idea was very simple. When Ji Lingruo first came up the mountain, she thought Ji Lingruo was here to snatch her junior brother, so she was full of hostility towards her.

But now she also understood that she was the one who came to snatch toys from others, and they were willing to share with her, so why couldn't she accept it? You Su was touched, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will definitely treat each of you equally!"

What followed was another impassioned speech that any man who wanted to have two women at once would make. Wangshu actually didn’t understand some of it, but seeing her junior brother anxiously proving himself to her, she felt inexplicably happy.

He Shutong also listened to every word carefully, and secretly sighed that he had lit a fire pit and pushed his own disciple into it.

"I understand what Wangshu means."

He Shutong looked at the two people who couldn't help holding hands again and interrupted:
"Next, let me ask you a question."

You Su hurriedly stood like a pine or cypress, with an attitude of "no matter which direction the wind blows, I will remain unmoved."

"Have you ever seen your senior sister's face?"

You Su paused for a moment and chose to change his answer:
"I don't care what my sister looks like."

He Shutong seemed to have guessed the answer and was not surprised at all. She asked Xiang Wangshu again:
"Wangshu, if you want to form a Taoist couple with your junior brother, he should also be entitled to know this secret. Are you willing?"

Wangshu nodded affirmatively without hesitation.

"Even if your senior sister is not a human, you don't care?"

"I will help my senior sister become a human." You Su said this with a determined spirit.

He Shutong raised her eyebrows slightly. She knew that You Su should have known some secrets about Wangshu.

She had no intention of finding out the reason at this time, but continued:
"In fact, your senior sister doesn't need to practice at all."

You Su's eyes widened immediately. The weight of this sentence was too shocking.

"Since she was very young, your sister's progress has been as fast as lightning. In order to make her like a normal person, I even limit her breakthrough speed. It seems that any cultivation is not a problem in front of her. She is a truly unique cultivation genius. Those so-called innate Dao bodies can only pale in comparison to your sister."

"But if I don't practice... where does the cultivation come from?"

"From memory."

You Su felt that he could understand each of these three words, but when they were put together they sounded very strange.

"She only needs to recall the power she should have, and she will get that power. The cultivation of a cultivator is a process of exploration, but your sister is trying to regain the experience of mastering the power she once had. That's why Wangshu has never been defeated. As long as she is in the Void Realm, even if she uses the Tongmai Realm to fight against the Huayu Realm, your sister is invincible, because realm is not a limitation for her. As for the Void Realm, no one in the Void Realm will challenge a junior, so the answer is unknown."

You Su turned his head and looked at his senior sister, his eyes full of amazement. He finally understood why his senior sister, who was clearly at the lower level of the Feather Transformation Realm, was able to force back Cai Ling, who was at the perfect level of the Feather Transformation Realm; he also understood that what his senior sister said to Venerable Qianhua was not bluffing, and that she would really become very powerful in the future, powerful enough to fight against the cultivators of the entire Five Continents...

“Isn’t Senior Sister a human being…” You Su murmured.

Wangshu held Yousu's hand tighter, as if worried that the boy would be scared by him.

"Wangshu was not a human before, but he will be one someday. In this world, in addition to humans, beasts, monsters, plants and trees, there is another kind of creature called 'Xu'. It is impossible to find records about Xu by flipping through ancient books. Their existence seems to have been erased by history.

When I followed the guidance of Master Yujing and brought her ashes to the island, I saw the young Wangshu. It was a baby, but she had no head. Instead, she was a ball of grayish-white light with two blue spheres on it that looked like eyes. I learned from the notes left by Master Yujing that she was a 'Xuan', the last one on this continent. "

You Su remembered Venerable Yu Jing, the previous leader of Xuanxiao Sect. She lost her life while saving her master's wife, and her master's wife felt full of guilt towards her.

"The notes say that the Void condenses from nothingness and is a true product of the Heavenly Dao, born full of spiritual energy. Their condensation is only for the purpose of experiencing and understanding the world. Theoretically, the Void can condense into any form it wants to become. At that time, Wangshu had already condensed a human body, but without a face.

At the end of her notes, Venerable Yu Jing entrusted the last Xu of the Five Continents to me, telling me that Xu was the hope of the Five Continents, a god sent from heaven, and that her identity must not be exposed. She wanted me to raise Xu, make her a real person, help her integrate into this world, and save this world. I kept my promise, named Xu Wangshu, and then brought Wangshu back to Xuanxiao Sect and began to raise her. But what puzzled me was that Wangshu's face could never be condensed successfully. So since she was a child, she has been wearing a mask. "

You Su was speechless, and the shock in his heart lasted for a long time.

Senior Sister’s existence was even more special than he had imagined. “But… why can’t I condense my face? Is it because Master Yu Jing is not ready?”

He Shutong shook his head. "When Venerable Yujing found Xu, she was already in human form. This means that it was Wangshu's own decision to become a human. As for the reason, Wangshu, you can tell him yourself."

“Because I don’t know what I should look like.”

Wangshu’s reason was very simple, so simple that even You Su found it a little unbelievable.

This innocent creature has seen all kinds of people since it decided to become a human being, but it doesn't know what kind of person it should become.

"If Wangshu doesn't know what she should become, she may never have a face, but become an ethereal creature. The secrets and causes and consequences of her are too great, and it is not a good thing to be easily contaminated. So after hearing all this, are you still willing to become a Taoist partner with Wangshu?"

He Shutong sat upright in the pool, his eyes fixed on the boy's expression.

If there was a hint of hesitation on You Su's face, she would not easily entrust Wangshu to You Su.

A real person should have joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, and all seven emotions and six desires. She does not object to Wangshu finding a Taoist partner, but she must protect this pure soul.

You Su took a deep breath, and expressed all the shock he had just felt after learning about the true nature of his senior sister. He then said in a serious tone:
"willing."

Just two simple words, yet they seem to contain thousands of words, vows of eternal love, and an indestructible force.

Wangshu felt a warm current flowing through her body, and she was fascinated by this warm feeling.

In the process of this creature born from nothingness transforming into a human being, the strong emotions will drive away the coldness from this body.

"But I already know what I'm going to look like."

Wangshu suddenly interrupted the two of them and put his hand on his Jade Rabbit mask.

He Shutong was very surprised when she heard this, and then she felt a great sense of relief. When Wangshu was able to take off the mask completely, she became a complete person. What mother in the world would not be pleased to see her child grow up?

"It seems that Wangshu has found what he wanted to be."

He Shutong had to admit that You Su's arrival really changed the girl and made her want to take off the mask.

"Ok!"

You Su looked in the direction of his senior sister in a daze, with a look of joy on his face.

This was a face that truly belonged to his senior sister, not a fake face created by an evil spirit; it was not meant to please him, but was a face that was condensed based on her independent will. He was sincerely happy for his senior sister.

But just when everyone was looking forward to what her face would look like, Wangshu put down his hand on the mask:

"But I haven't completed the condensation yet, so I can't take it off yet."

After the words fell, You Su and He Shutong couldn't help but reveal a hint of disappointment.

But they are different from those outsiders who covet Wangshu's beauty. Wangshu's face is not that important to them. Even if he wears a mask all the time, Wangshu is still Wangshu.

"Wangshu, you can take it off whenever you want. Once you have your own face, you will be a real person."

He Shutong smiled gently, recalling the experience of raising such a young Wangshu to where he is today, which made her feel melancholy, with a mixture of emotion and self-blame in her heart.

She had not fulfilled her responsibilities as a teacher in a very competent manner. Her kindness over the years had not allowed the girl to feel the warmth of the world. Now that her kindness had melted, she would definitely find a way to make it up to the girl.

And from today on, there will be another person who will care for this pure white girl together with her.

"Suer, let's start."

You Su's face was slightly stiff, and he felt something in his heart. He quickly bent his knees, knelt on the ground, and said loudly:
"A marriage certificate, presented to the heavens, reported to the underworld, and presented to the Ninth Heaven, asking the Lotus Sword Master to witness it.

If you betray a beautiful woman, you are deceiving the heavens. The sin of deceiving the heavens is death!"
