She also saw her own white arms, and when she looked down again, she almost screamed!

The worst-case scenario has occurred: she is sitting naked in Lin Yi's lap. Given Lin Yi's keen senses, he will definitely notice any unusual movement she makes. As soon as she opens her eyes, all her secrets will be exposed to him.

When she obtained the dragon scales last night, she wanted to quickly find materials to make clothes, but the power of the two dragon scales began to merge, making her very sleepy. She also thought that after she obtained the dragon scales last time, although the degree of dragon energy fusion increased, her bloodline power was also activated.

The time she can maintain her cat form is also extended, so obtaining the dragon scales may not necessarily allow her to revert to her human form.

Thinking of this, Xiao Se didn't grit her teeth and insist, especially since it was unlikely that she could make clothes under those circumstances.

Clinging to this hopeful thought, she nestled in Lin Yi's arms and fell asleep. Little did she know that when she woke up, she had become a human.

Fortunately, there were no other living beings on the island, and Lin Yi had also set up a magic array around their resting place so that no one else could see them, otherwise she would have been mortified.

Now, as long as Lin Yi doesn't see it, everything will be fine.

Xiao Se was extremely nervous, but seeing that Lin Yi was breathing steadily and his eyes were closed, probably cultivating, Xiao Se felt a little relieved.

She was indeed lucky; she managed to escape such a dangerous moment.

There's no time to make clothes now, and Xiao Se doesn't have the courage to run around naked on the island. So, the only option is to steal Lin Yi's clothes.

Even when cultivating, a person in spiritual practice remains vigilant, but as long as they do not harbor hostility towards others, their perception will be relatively dulled.

What Xiao Se wanted to do was steal a piece of clothing from Lin Yi's cloud bag. Given Lin Yi's level of trust in her, this was not a difficult task.

However, in Lin Yi's cloud pouch, there was a crimson immortal sword lying there at the moment.

Anyone can open the cloud bag, but the immortal sword has a spirit and can tell that the person reaching out is not its master.

Even though the Demon-Slaying Sword has not yet officially recognized Lin Yi as its master, Lin Yi's actions have already earned the Demon-Slaying Sword's approval.

As a celestial sword, it will naturally protect its master's property.

Trying to steal something? I'll chop off your paws!

Just as Xiao Se's hand grasped a piece of clothing, a sharp gust of sword wind struck her hand.

Such a swift and sudden attack startled Xiao Se, who hastily dodged the sword, but his clothes were torn in the process.

She quickly took it out and draped it over her body, barely covering herself, but a gash had been cut in her chest by the demon-slaying sword, revealing a large area of ​​skin.

Seeing that the thief had actually stolen something, the Demon-Slaying Sword was enraged and flew out of the cloud bag in a flash, stabbing straight at Xiao Se.

Xiao Se felt a sense of foreboding; such a commotion would likely alert Lin Yi.

She quickly dodged aside, her hands transforming into cat claws as she engaged the demon-slaying sword in a fierce battle, producing a clanging sound of metal clashing against metal.

The Demon-Slaying Sword is a celestial weapon, but Xiao Se obtained two dragon scales and his bloodline power was activated. Now his strength has greatly increased, and he is no longer someone who can be bullied by a mere sword.

The cat and the sword fought fiercely. Lin Yi originally wanted to use his Heavenly Eye to take a look, but he accidentally saw Xiao Se's exposed spring scenery again, so he had to turn off his Heavenly Eye and rely on his ears to listen.

Xiao Se held back somewhat, after all, it was Lin Yi's sword, and she couldn't possibly go all out to tear the other party's heart apart. But without such murderous aura, she was helpless against the Demon-Slaying Sword.

This made it difficult for the two sides to evenly match up.

The Demon-Slaying Sword is violent in nature. It is a fire-attribute immortal sword and its way is to kill. Now, seeing that it cannot subdue Xiao Se, this anomaly, the more it fights, the angrier it gets.

The sword trembled incessantly, emitting bursts of buzzing.

This is a call for Lin Yi to wake up and chop up the little thief in front of him.

A sword can only unleash its full power when it is wielded by someone.

Xiao Se panicked when he saw this situation.

Although she stole a piece of clothing, she only covered herself up slightly. It was already embarrassing enough that Lin Yi saw her like this. If Lin Yi found out that she had clashed with the Demon-Slaying Sword just to steal a piece of clothing, she would never be able to face anyone again.

"Stop yelling, I'll just poke you if necessary."

Xiao Se's submissive demeanor and terrible dialogue are just like the plot of some low-budget movies.

The Demon-Slaying Sword, however, was ignorant of these social customs. Seeing that Xiao Se still dared to provoke him and that Lin Yi was still not awake, it shot towards Xiao Se's chest in a flash.

Xiao Se thought it was really going to stab him before it would stop, and he thought that he wouldn't die from being stabbed once, as long as the sword stopped, so he gave up resisting.

Although Lin Yi's eyes were closed, his ears were more than enough to act as his eyes. Sensing something was wrong, he dared not pretend to be stupid any longer and had no choice but to grab the hilt of the Demon-Slaying Sword the moment it flew out.

Okay, now the situation is awkward.

Lin Yi didn't know what to say to Xiao Se or how to greet him. He just opened his eyes briefly and then immediately closed them again.

The Demon-Slaying Sword was still angry, so Lin Yi could only pat it to comfort it.

Xiao Se realized that Lin Yi had awakened when she discovered that the Demon-Slaying Sword hadn't pierced her. She was at a loss, thinking that she would rather have been stabbed by the sword!

In the awkward atmosphere, Lin Yi still took out a few pieces of clothing from his cloud bag and threw them at Xiao Se.

Xiao Se caught it, and his face immediately turned red.

Clearly, Lin Yi saw everything.

She was so shy she wanted to hide immediately, but she also felt a little happy inside.

Finally, she no longer had to pretend in front of Lin Yi. Also, Lin Yi had seen her body, which was probably the opportunity for their relationship to take a step further.

With a shy yet sweet feeling, Xiao Se picked up Lin Yi's clothes and went into the grove. After she had tidied herself up, she came out shyly.

Without the Yin-Yang Jade, Lin Yi's men's clothing could hardly conceal her figure. Although she was dressed in men's clothes, it was still easy to tell at a glance that she was a beautiful girl.

Compared to her previous unremarkable appearance in women's clothing, Lin Yi found that both forms were damnably charming.

I must be becoming strange!

Lin Yi silently complained in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Se didn't know how to start the conversation, so she could only stand awkwardly to the side, at a loss.

Finally, Lin Yi spoke first: "Second brother, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

"Ah... oh..."

A nervous Xiao Se immediately responded. She raised her head, looked at Lin Yi's face, and then lowered her head shyly, not daring to look him in the eye.

"Before, because of my identity as the heir apparent of the Prince of Liang, I had to appear in front of the world as a man. I didn't mean to deceive you."

After I broke ties with my father, I didn't know how to tell you, so it's been dragging on until now.

As Xiao Se explained, he became nervous again.

She was afraid Lin Yi would be angry. After all, Lin Yi treated her like a brother, and she had kept such an important matter from him all along, which was a bit too much.

"Big brother, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. If you're angry, I'll accept whatever punishment you give me."

Lin Yi: "..."

He wouldn't be angry. Lin Yi isn't petty; he's generally tolerant of others, especially those around him.

In his view, concealing his identity was not a big deal, since the other party had not done anything to harm him, so there was no need to be angry.

Just thinking about how he shared a bed with Xiao Se and even slept with her in his arms, and how he even doubted his own thinking because of Xiao Se, Lin Yi felt extremely embarrassed.

As for Xiao Se's explanation, she didn't say it, but Lin Yi roughly guessed the reason when he saw that she was a girl.

Seeing Xiao Se so nervous and willing to accept any punishment, an indescribable option subconsciously popped into Lin Yi's mind.

Of course, he was a decent man and quickly rejected the suggestion.

"You don't need to be too nervous. Our friendship is based on gender and background, so whether you are male or female will not affect our relationship."

As for punishment, that's out of the question. You didn't intentionally deceive me, nor did you harm me in the slightest. Why should I be angry with you? Do you perhaps think I'm that kind of shallow person?

"Of course not!"

Xiao Se immediately denied it, but seeing Lin Yi's smiling face, her heart beat even faster.

Lin Yi is indeed understanding and magnanimous; he truly deserves to be called the eldest brother.

But how will she get along with Lin Yi in the future?

Xiao Se felt conflicted again.

Lin Yi didn't dwell on the issue; it was better for both of them to skip over the awkward topic.

He then asked, "You also got a dragon scale yesterday, right? Have you become much stronger now?"

What Lin Yi was most curious about was the small tent he saw that day. How did Xiao Se, a girl, manage to make it?

Unfortunately, this is a difficult question to ask. If it were a boy, we could discuss such sensitive topics, but it's not appropriate for a boy and a girl to do so.

Lin Yi had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and ask about other things.

Speaking of this, Xiao Se told Lin Yi about his gains without reservation: "What I got yesterday was indeed a dragon scale, which represents the power of thunder."

I have a feeling that there are a few more dragon scales like these, each perhaps corresponding to a powerful ability. Now that we've mastered wind and thunder, maybe we'll get scales with the power of water and fire in the future.

"That's great. If you need help collecting scales in the future, just ask me."

Lin Yi was quite interested in collecting cards; even if he didn't collect cards himself, he would help Xiao Se collect them.

"Thank you, Brother Xie."

"You're too kind. Speaking of which, you still call me 'Big Brother,' so what should I call you from now on? Second Sister?"

Hearing Lin Yi's teasing, Xiao Se blushed again. After a moment of embarrassment, she whispered, "You can call me whatever you want."

This puts Lin Yi in a difficult position. To be honest, "Second Sister" doesn't sound very nice. A more affectionate term would be "Se Se."

You can't be sassy; sassy doesn't sound good.

Arthur is really strange.

hiss……

How did the Prince of Liang come up with such a name that makes him so difficult to address?

Lin Yi struggled for a long time but couldn't come up with a nice and intimate way to address him.

"How about I call you Second Brother?"

Xiao Se: "..."

Her shy smile froze, and for a moment she didn't know what expression to make.

"Well, let's think of a way to get out of here!"

Xiao Se didn't want to discuss this topic with Lin Yi anymore, and turned his head to look at the vast sea.

The rising sun was exceptionally brilliant. It was the first time she had ever seen a sunrise at sea, and she was immediately overwhelmed by the beauty of nature. She couldn't even care less about arguing with that silly goose, Lin Yi.
