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

Chapter 504 Granny Liu, you? !

Another day passed, and Elder Hua generously shared the changes in his demon pill at the morning meeting.

The women took turns to use their spiritual consciousness to observe it, and found that the pink demon pill became clearer and clearer. Although it was not as clear and perfect as Liu Yinyin's, it was much purer than what the other elders could see with their naked eyes.

Ji Xueruo naturally nodded frequently. Although it was inconvenient for her to be present at the scene in person to perform the supervisory duties, she was also extremely concerned about this matter.

She was sure that when Elder Hua's dual cultivation was over, the other elders would be curious and would definitely go to her to ask about it privately. She took the opportunity to find Ji Lingruo and asked her about the whole process. Only then did she know that You Su had performed so well. Even though Elder Hua was very charming the first time, You Su remained calm.

Although it was definitely because Ji Lingruo was supervising nearby, Ji Xueruo also knew that You Su always kept his word. If he really wanted to take advantage of him, he didn't need to bother looking for a way to practice dual cultivation.

Thinking of this, she actually recognized You Su a little more and praised him sincerely, but he took advantage of her and dragged her to be with her sister again, and her recognition turned into coquettish scolding. However, this time was different from the day when the whole family got drunk, and Ji Xueruo did not dare to stay until the early morning like before.

Unexpectedly, when she returned to the palace quietly with her legs tucked together, she met Granny Liu on the road. Granny Liu knew that she had an affair with You Su, and she felt guilty. In this situation, she was afraid that nothing she said would work. But fortunately, Liu Yinyin did not expose it, but just reminded her to "be careful" and left. Ji Xueruo then realized that Granny Liu must have sent away the elders who might have discovered the clues for her, so she reminded her here.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously glanced at the beautiful Liu Yinyin, but saw that she was also looking at her. Ji Xueruo felt embarrassed for a moment. At this moment, Elder Yin suddenly asked curiously:
"I forgot why the clan leader's demon core became so clear and pure?"

Ji Xueruo's heart tightened, fearing that the girls would associate the changes in her demon pill with You Su's body of the Heavenly Furnace. But before she could speak, she heard Liu Yinyin say seriously:

"The clan leader got a great opportunity when he sought the lotus heart in Yuhuan Pond. Elder Yin asked this question. Are you afraid that the clan leader will hide something from us?"

Elder Yin quickly denied it, but she also complained that this was almost a secret. However, she also secretly thought that if these two people had already sneaked away, it would be fine. If the demon core of the remaining sisters suddenly became extremely clear instead of gradually, then they must have secretly performed the law, and she would definitely overturn the table.

Ji Xueruo gave Liu Yinyin a grateful look, but she also knew that this excuse might be hidden from them, but it would never be hidden from Grandma Liu.

The girls were still amazed at the mystery of the Heavenly Furnace Body. Ji Xueruo felt that it was not a big deal to keep it a secret with Granny Liu. She was not a hesitant girl. She had seen You Su's sincerity and his efforts for her. She was not ready to run away from this relationship. Since the whole family would know it sooner or later, she might as well start with Granny Liu, who she loved and respected the most.

After the morning meeting was over, Ji Xueruo went to look for Liu Yinyin alone.

Liu Yinyin is brewing fragrant tea in the bamboo forest, and the fragrance of tea fills the quiet bamboo forest.

She seemed to have guessed Ji Xueruo's intention and poured her a cup of tea. However, she became a little nervous when she saw the eldest lady who had grown up with her approaching.

"Granny Liu." Ji Xueruo called softly, and her voice lacked the usual coldness, which made Liu Yinyin suddenly remember the time when Ji Xueruo was still a child.

At that time, the eldest lady rarely called her in such a soft voice. She always knew that the eldest lady had a hard life since she was a child. She saw it with her own eyes, but she couldn't take all the responsibilities for Ji Xueruo, so she could only silently support the girl behind her.

Liu Yinyin's eyes were gentle as she handed over the tea. "Miss, please feel free to speak."

Ji Xueruo stroked the teacup, a ripple in her eyes, "Regarding You Su, actually... I, I also have feelings for him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the only sound in the bamboo forest was the rustling of the wind.

Liu Yinyin paused with the teaspoon in her hand, knowing that the girl could speak frankly to her, which meant that she had really identified with the boy: "I know."

She put down the teacup and sighed softly, "You and the Second Miss are very similar to your mother. You both have the courage to love and hate. But you are luckier than her. You met a good man like You Su."

When Ji Xueruo mentioned her mother, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes. Liu Yinyin felt pity for her and stretched out her jade-like hand to hold the girl's hand. "Your mother gave her love to the wrong person and ended up with a miserable end. But that person hid his head and showed his tail. From beginning to end, he didn't even dare to see the people of the snake tribe. But You Su is different. He is loyal and righteous, responsible and principled. I believe you will never repeat your mother's mistakes."

Ji Xueruo felt a little sour in the tip of her nose. She stood up and gently hugged Liu Yinyin like a little bird, resting her head on her shoulder: "I know it's wrong for me to be like this with my sister, but I don't know why, I just feel that when I'm with him, no matter how bad my mood is, I can feel relaxed..."

This was the first time Ji Xueruo had shared such heart-to-heart talk with anyone. Liu Yinyin patted her back gently with satisfaction, as if coaxing her when she was young. "Silly child, you have been carrying the responsibility of the Snake Clan on your shoulders since you were young. Now that you have met someone who truly loves you, it is a blessing from heaven. At first I thought he was a troublesome thing, but unexpectedly he was a lucky star sent from heaven. With you, the Second Young Lady, and him, the Snake Clan will surely be able to regain its ancient glory."

Ji Xueruo didn't answer, but she agreed in her heart, and stammered, "And everyone else..."

Liu Yinyin smiled gently. She had lost the vicissitudes of the past. Her black hair fell to her waist like a waterfall. The majesty at the corners of her eyes was still there, and her smile added a bit of softness. Ji Xueruo and Ji Lingruo were born with exactly the same delicate facial features, but their natural temperaments were very different. She had been the clan leader since she was a child, and she still had a sense of majesty, even in this soft moment.

Two fairies, one old and one young, hugged each other. Not only did they have similar temperaments, but even their looks were somewhat similar. They looked like a loving mother and daughter hugging each other. It was truly touching.

Ji Xueruo really likes the feeling of hugging someone like this. Maybe because she has been independent since she was a child, she also hopes to rely on someone sometimes. However, she is used to worrying about others. When she hugs You Su Wencun, she will think of his goodness and think about how to do good for him. At this time, she is also like this when she hugs Liu Yinyin. She has already thought about what else she can do for Liu Yinyin.

After a little thought, she had the answer. The six elders all had to purify their demon cores, so why should Granny Liu be an exception? She was not the weathered-looking 40-50-year-old she used to be. Even if she was like that, it was a symbol of her hard work and great achievements, and had nothing to do with being ugly.

Calling her Granny Liu was also because of the issue of seniority. Judging from her appearance, it would be more appropriate to call her Old Auntie. If You Su dared to dislike Granny Liu, she would be the first to disagree. However, with Granny Liu's current appearance, I'm afraid You Su would not have the heart to reject her.

The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to her. Although Granny Liu's cultivation realm had greatly increased after obtaining Yu Wanyue's help, the purification of the demon pill was something that no one in any realm would find too much. Who knows, Granny Liu might become the first cave-empty cultivator since the snake clan came down the mountain!
She suddenly raised her eyes, her gaze burning: "Granny Liu, why don't you let You Su purify your demon pill for you!" As she spoke, she subconsciously probed her spiritual sense into the body of the beautiful woman in her arms, wanting to see the state of Liu Yinyin's demon pill.

But it was this exploration that made her pupils shrink suddenly - Liu Yinyin's dark blue demon pill was almost flawless, and it could be called the best! This was not her previous demon pill at all!

Liu Yinyin felt the consciousness in her body and her body stiffened. She was only annoyed that she had been so cautious but still relaxed because of the tenderness with the young lady. She had been afraid of being touched by others since that day, for fear that people would find out that her demon core had changed. However, she not only failed to defend against Elder Hua, but also failed to defend against the young lady...

She looked at Ji Xueruo's shocked eyes, her cheeks burning, and she only wished her face could be older and thicker. But she couldn't say any of the many things that came to her mind, because she knew that Ji Xueruo would never believe it. There is probably no other magical object in the world that can purify the demon pill like You Su in just one day.

Ji Xueruo did not fly into a rage, she just slowly loosened her arms around Liu Yinyin. She never thought that her worries were unnecessary.

"Why?" she asked in a low voice. The gentle young lady just now disappeared again, and she turned back into the patriarch who was in charge of the clan.

Liu Yinyin felt pain in her heart, and she thought it was hard for her to keep it a secret. The absurdity of that day kept turning over and over in her mind. She didn't seem to have any lingering feelings, but more of a fear.

She was so afraid of being exposed, not because she was afraid that the tribe would say she was disrespectful, but because she was afraid that it would affect the relationship between You Su and the two young ladies. She was also relieved that such a good man like You Su could be recruited into the snake tribe, because he was not only the love of the two young ladies, but also the opportunity of the snake tribe. But if this fate was ruined because of her, she would never let herself go even if she died.

Now that she had a chance to confess, she didn't want to keep hiding it any longer, so she told him everything that happened in the golden cocoon.

"So, everything is just a coincidence?" Ji Xueruo frowned and her voice suddenly became softer. Only because Liu Yinyin's narration was not at all off, she knew that it was Liu Yinyin who forced herself on You Su...

Liu Yinyin didn't want to deceive herself anymore. She had figured out the key to this during this period of time. Perhaps there was no such thing as coincidence at all.

"Perhaps it is not a coincidence. The method of passing on the power was originally the idea of ​​my Senior Sister Yu. These days I have carefully studied the results of the demon pills she left behind, and I think that perhaps there is no need for such twists and turns. She was determined to take revenge on Yu Xiaoran in the most ruthless way, but she must have seen that You Su was not a man who was attracted by beauty, so she passed on the power, and the purpose was naturally to make You Su lose his ability to move.

"But she was supposed to be married to You Su, but she found that the boy was surprisingly reliable and that he respected me from the bottom of his heart. And I was so easily persuaded by You Su to enter the golden cocoon. So she changed her mind. She felt sorry for me getting older and older, and she definitely didn't want me to be like her, practicing hard for a lifetime and still not being able to find a close friend, so she didn't want to get ahead of me, and she might have even fanned the flames behind the scenes. But I was so confused that day that I didn't realize it at all, and I didn't know how much was caused by her and how much was my own desire..."

At the end of the conversation, Liu Yinyin's voice was as hoarse as an old sword sheathed. Ji Xueruo could also hear the self-blame in her voice, but she couldn't bring herself to blame her. After all, the most hateful ones were the two people from the Golden Peng clan.

"Do you regret it?"

Ji Xueruo looked at Liu Yinyin's reborn skin, which was as smooth as satin, without any wrinkles at all. However, she could not tell whether this new life was brought to her by Yu Wanyue or You Su.

Liu Yinyin looked at the swaying bamboo forest and suddenly smiled. There was bitterness in that smile, but also relief: "I have guarded the snake clan for two hundred years, and I dare not even say 'tired'. That day I knew that someone would say that my wrinkles are 'gifts from time'. I have persisted until today and didn't feel anything, but when he said that, I felt very wronged."

Her voice was as light as a feather, but Ji Xueruo knew the answer.

The girl sighed, feeling so depressed that she didn't know who to blame. You Su was more concerned about Granny Liu's mental state than she was. Did she blame You Su for being too attractive to women? Granny Liu was suddenly cared for and recognized, so it was reasonable for her to be moved. Could she blame her for being easily defended?
Liu Yinyin saw her entanglement and took the initiative to say: "I feel much better after speaking out. Otherwise, I always feel sorry for the eldest and second young ladies. I never deliberately interfered in your relationship. I will pretend that nothing happened. Please let You Su think so too..."

Ji Xueruo shook her head and lamented, "You don't know You Su. He will never treat this as if it never happened, or even as a fleeting romance. He will just keep it in his heart."

Liu Yinyin suddenly became nervous, "What should we do then?"

Ji Xueruo looked at the figure swaying in the cup, but she felt troubled. Granny Liu was the person she respected the most, and now that she had finally been tempted, how could she be so cruel as to stop her.

She could only helplessly say, "You Su is just like this. He may not have any love for you, but he always likes to be gentle and make others flustered."

Liu Yinyin's expression was somewhat gloomy, but she had expected this. "Of course I know that. How could he have any improper thoughts about me..."

Seeing that she was ashamed of herself again, Ji Xueruo felt sorry for her and advised:

"Don't think like that. With your current appearance, even the women of the Danhe tribe would be inferior to you. How could You Su not be happy?"

Liu Yinyin smiled lightly, "He is a blind man, how can he be someone who looks at faces?"

When Ji Xueruo saw that Granny Liu was always speaking for You Su, she knew that she could not stop thinking about her.

At this moment, Ji Xueruo only lamented whether she should have taken You Su in. For some reason, she had an illusion that every one of the snakes had a natural affinity for You Su.

She was too lazy to think about it and whispered, "You can also participate in the purification of the demon pill. I will tell my sister. I won't let my sister watch you while you purify it."

When Liu Yinyin heard this, her beautiful eyes slightly opened and her red lips moved, but she couldn't say no.
