How to capture the system fairies as wives

"Long time no see, how are you?"

Yu Xiang's body trembled slightly. No one could see her expression under the veil.

After a long silence, she pretended to be calm and tried her best to suppress her trembling voice before she slowly spoke:

"…It's you? You're not dead?"

"Hey, hey, that's too much." Chen Yin said innocently, "After all, I fell off the cliff for you. Why would you say such cold and heartless words?"

"It's because——"

Yu Xiang's tone almost became intense, but after realizing it, she immediately suppressed it and returned to her cold tone:

"I didn't ask you to save me. I didn't know you were such a fool that you would do such a stupid thing for a stranger."

Although she tried hard to hide it, Chen Yin could still hear a hint of grievance in her words.

"Ahem... you can't say that."

He shook his head and began to talk eloquently: "As a monk, what we seek is to have a clear conscience. Who can bear to see a group of people embarrass a young girl?"

Yu Xiang was a little disappointed and anxious: "You don't know me, how do you know if I'm a bad person?"

"What if... I am really the devil witch they are talking about?"

As soon as she said this, Yu Xiang felt a little regretful.

But Chen Yin just pinched his chin and pondered, then turned his head and said after a moment: "Then, is it Miss Yin?"

Yu Xiang bit her lip and whispered, "Why should I tell you?"

"Only if you tell me can I know whether the person I saved is a good person or a bad person."

"Does the devil have to be a bad person?"

Facing Yu Xiang's question, Chen Yin thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if all the people in the Demonic Path are bad people. I don't care."

"I just want to know if the person I saved is a bad person."

He suddenly opened his arms, frankly exposed his chest to Yu Xiang, and said loudly: "If the girl is really a bad person, you might as well kill me with a sword and silence me."

Yu Xiang's tone suddenly became anxious: "Do you really think I wouldn't dare to expose myself to strangers like this?"

As he spoke, a slender sword pointed straight at Chen Yin.

But Chen Yin remained motionless, just looking at her with a relaxed smile.

"If the girl dares...what are you waiting for?"

The aura of the sword became more fierce.

But in the end, it was like a flickering candle flame, slowly going out, and finally drooping weakly to the ground.

After a long while, Chen Yin finally heard a sound of gnashing teeth coming from the other side:

"You...how can there be someone like you in this world?"

"Thank you for the compliment, young lady." Chen Yin smiled brightly.

"Since you're here, why not chat for a while before leaving?"

Yu Xiang glanced hesitantly at the docile purple-bearded thunder-maned tiger beside Chen Yin, and nodded slowly.

-

On a big rock beside a mountain stream, the moonlight was like silver and spread all over the ground. A purple-bearded thunder-maned tiger lay by the stream, licking its furry paws with the stream water.

Chen Yin and Yu Xiang sat side by side on a big rock, but there was a lot of distance between them.

Although she was wearing a veil and a quiet black dress, she did not look like the lively and lovely Xiang'er at all. But once she really sat next to Chen Yin, she was always a little scared, afraid that her identity would be exposed.

In order to change the subject and ease her uneasiness, she took the initiative to speak:

"How come you are fine after falling from such a high cliff?"

"Who knows. Maybe I'm lucky." Chen Yin lay on the stone carelessly.

"Then why did you speak up for me at that time? Was it really just because you saw injustice?"

"Maybe." He shrugged. "Maybe he just simply doesn't like those people and wants to find an excuse to cause trouble."

...seeing a group of Wu Yu and Shang Qing realm cultivators being unhappy and starting trouble? Yu Xiang was almost speechless and could only mutter bitterly: "You are a little cultivator in Shang Yun realm, how thick-skinned do you have to be to say such a thing."

"Hey, this is what Miss Yin doesn't know."

Chen Yin immediately sat up seriously and said, "I don't have any other characteristics except that I'm very thick-skinned."

"Don't even mention the Wu Yu Realm and Shang Qing Realm. Even the Tai Qing Realm and Shang Xian can't penetrate my skin!"

This is true.

Look at my master. He always tries to break down my defense, but when has he ever succeeded in breaking through my thick skin?

Seeing Chen Yin raising his head proudly, Yu Xiang was even more furious: "Aren't you afraid that you might really make trouble and get into trouble someday?"

"Have you never thought about how worried the people around you would be if something happened to you?"

Chen Yin's smile slowly faded, and he asked in a calm tone:

"Then... Miss Yin, what about you?"

"When the elders interrogated you, wasn't Miss Yin afraid that something might happen to her and make the people around her worry?"

"I……"

Yu Xiang was suddenly speechless.

Chen Yin's eyes were surprisingly calm, without a trace of fluctuation. But Yu Xiang was suddenly a little afraid of his gaze, and couldn't help but turn her head away slightly.

“There is no one close to me.”

"How could that be? Where are Miss Yin's parents and fellow disciples and brothers in the sect?"

Yu Xiang's eyes dimmed a little, and her tone gradually became low: "...It's gone a long time ago."

“It disappeared more than a decade ago.”

Chen Yin narrowed his eyes slightly.

"From what those people said, the girl's sect seems to be called... Changli Palace?"

Yu Xiang turned around and asked, "Do you know this sect?"

"Um, please forgive my short-sightedness."

"Oh. That's right." She lowered her eyebrows and smiled bitterly, "It's normal that you don't know."

"Who in the entire cultivation world still remembers this sect now?"

Chen Yin hesitated for a moment and was about to speak: "Then I wonder if Miss Yin would be willing to elaborate..."

"Don't ask."

Yu Xiang's voice suddenly turned cold. She raised her head and glanced at Chen Yin coldly: "Knowing this will do you no good."

Chen Yin withdrew his gaze, lowered his head thoughtfully, and said no more.

The evening breeze swayed the unknown bouquets of flowers on the shore, and shallow ripples spread across the surface of the stream.

Yu Xiang looked at the stream in front of her and suddenly felt a little sad.

...How could this happen.

Mingming had finally met his senior brother and learned that he was safe and sound, so he didn't want to make the atmosphere so awkward.

But she had to be ruthless and end the topic.

We must not let our senior brother get involved in this matter.

Just when Yu Xiang was feeling extremely upset, Chen Yin's gentle voice suddenly rang in her ears:

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Does Miss Yin have someone she likes?"

Yu Xiang was stunned for a moment, then turned away, with a hint of unhappiness in her tone: "What?"

"If I say no, are you going to flirt with me?"

"Ahem, is this the image I have in the girl's mind?"

"That's about right." Yu Xiang pouted slightly and said unhappily, "You can tell at first glance that he's a playboy."

Chen Yin immediately argued: "Miss, you can't slander someone's innocence out of thin air. Is there any man in this world who is more loyal than me?"

"You?" Yu Xiang sneered.

"Let's not talk about the woman in red who picked out clothes for you in Wanxiang Pavilion that day."

"Where is Fairy Shen Shuanglian who jumped off the cliff with you?"

Chen Yin immediately smiled guiltily.

"Um, well, she...she was injured while protecting me, and she's still recovering from her injuries."

Yu Xiang immediately turned her head, and there was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes hidden behind the veil.

"…Recovering from injuries?"

"So, you have been staying with her for the past few days?"

Chen Yin's back was soaked with cold sweat, and he faltered as he explained:

"Ahem, although that's what I said, she and I didn't do anything except healing our wounds."

This... shouldn't be considered a lie, right?

But Yu Xiang felt a little jealous as always, she snorted and turned her head away:

"Why bother explaining to me? I don't know you well, and it's none of my business what woman you're with."

Seeing Xiang'er getting angry again, Chen Yin couldn't just coax her this time, so he could only bite the bullet and go over to her and say, "Miss Yin, listen to my excuse..."

"It goes without saying."

After a long while, he suddenly heard Yu Xiang say in a low voice: "...Thank her for me."

Thank her for jumping off a cliff to save her brother, even at great risk.

Otherwise, considering Brother’s strength as a newcomer to Shangyun, and his limited mastery of the “Wangyan Xinhualu”, his life might really be in danger.

Seeing Chen Yin looking at her curiously, Yu Xiang just turned her head away: "Nothing."

"Didn't you say that you have a little sister waiting for you at home?"

"You are so close to Fairy Shen, aren't you afraid that your junior sister will be jealous?"

Chen Yin was choked and scratched his nose: "My little junior sister."

"She's silly and doesn't have that many thoughts. She won't mind."

"You——" Yu Xiang raised her eyebrows, and was about to explode, but she forced herself to hold it back, and finally only let out a light snort.

"Humph. It's her bad luck to have such a dissolute senior brother like you."

Unexpectedly, Chen Yin shrugged nonchalantly:

"Yes."

"Junior sister is really unlucky. She has to meet a philandering, lazy, and useless senior brother like me."

"If I were good enough, powerful enough, and loyal enough, I could be someone she could trust with her life."

"Maybe... she won't have to live such a hard life." Chen Yin's tone softened unconsciously.

Yu Xiang stared at him blankly for a long time before she came back to her senses. She suppressed her red eyes and whispered:

"Actually... you're not as bad as you say. There's no need to belittle yourself."

"Maybe many people want to meet a senior brother like you, but they haven't met one yet."

"Really?"

Chen Yin burst into laughter: "It turns out I'm not that bad."

"If my little junior sister could think this way."

"...I will be very happy."
