After transmigrating As The Sickly Junior Sister - Chapter 6

The coachman smiled on the surface, but in his heart, he was full of resentment. These cultivators could clearly fly on swords, yet they insisted on making him drive a carriage and escort them, delaying him from earning money. It was simply unreasonable.

Seeing that Ye Qingruo did not respond, Jiang Li made the decision and answered, “Thank you for your trouble. Please stop.”

The carriage stopped outside an inn with a wine flag fluttering above it. Ye Qingruo opened her eyes and calmly stepped down from the carriage.

Jiang Li silently followed. By now, the sky outside had completely darkened, and the stars filled the heavens, twinkling above the mortal world.

Jiang Li subconsciously looked up at the night sky and remembered the red pill Xiao Hu had left for her. Tonight was the night of the full moon.

Thinking of this, she held the pill in her palm, feeling uneasy.

She wouldn’t really transform later, would she? No matter what, it was better to prepare first. If something really felt wrong, she would immediately take it.

The inn was very small, and only one upper room was left.

The coachman took the initiative to guard the carriage. The innkeeper felt troubled, afraid that these two fairies would make him drive away another guest to free up a room.

Jiang Li understood the innkeeper’s concern at a glance. In the end, she could not hold back and said, “Young Sect Master, let us stay in one room. That way, we can look after each other.”

After saying this, her heart began to pound. The book had not explained the white moonlight’s personality. She had only appeared a few times before dying and her Dao vanishing. Jiang Li had made this decision on her own—she wouldn’t get beaten for it, right?

Ye Qingruo looked at Jiang Li’s nervous face, as if seeing through what she was thinking, and replied, “All right.”

Jiang Li immediately let out a breath of relief. As expected, just as the novel had written, the white moonlight was truly kind and pure.

After they entered the room, there was only one single bed inside. It would be a little crowded for two people to sleep together.

Jiang Li was just planning to tactfully make a bed on the floor when Ye Qingruo directly sat down beside the bed.

“Junior Sister Jiang Li may sleep on the bed. I will meditate.”

The corner of Jiang Li’s mouth twitched slightly. She instantly imagined herself lying on the bed while someone sat cross-legged beside her. No matter how she thought about it, it felt terrifying.

She took a light breath. Seeing that Ye Qingruo had already crossed her legs and closed her eyes, Jiang Li tightened her grip on the pill in her hand and said nothing. At worst, she would not sleep tonight and would make up for it in the carriage tomorrow.

Jiang Li originally thought she could stay awake. Perhaps sitting in the carriage all day had exhausted her too much, because she had not expected sleepiness to hit the moment her head touched the pillow. The hand that tightly held the pill also loosened unconsciously, and the pill slipped onto the bedsheet.

The night deepened, and the moon gradually revealed its full shape, like a glowing round plate, making the stars around it dim.

Moonlight shone brilliantly, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth reached its most concentrated moment. Jiang Li, whose face was turned inward, unconsciously turned over and lay flat on her back.

Invisible to the eye, a bewitching fragrance began to drift from her body, as if every pore was breathing, releasing that faint, nearly undetectable alluring scent in all directions.

The fragrance soon filled the entire room. It was almost tangible, condensing into a haze.

Ye Qingruo, who was closest to her, was continuously refining the spiritual energy inside her body. With each breath she took, it was as if the fragrance in the room had found an exit. It rushed toward her one wave after another.

Very soon, the fragrance was absorbed completely. It entered Ye Qingruo’s body and disturbed her mind, causing her previously calm heart to suddenly burn.

Ye Qingruo abruptly opened her eyes. Her eyes were faintly red, and even her breathing had lost its rhythm.

Somewhat beyond her control, she turned her head and looked toward the sleeping person. The dark red in her eyes revealed a shocking desire.

Ye Qingruo was startled to realize that something was wrong with her body, but her mind remained muddled and unable to fully clear. Her body had also lost its autonomy. Following instinct, she rose to her knees and leaned over the sleeping person.

In her dream, Jiang Li only felt her body sink, as if something had pressed down on her. Immediately after, there was a softness against her lips, carrying a trace of coolness, tempting her to be swallowed whole.

Their lips entangled. That trace of coolness quickly dispersed, taking on warmth and becoming damp with dew.

However, the person who had lost control seemed unable to find the right method. Her urgency carried a hint of fierceness.

Hiss!

A sharp pain suddenly came from the corner of Jiang Li’s mouth. She had been bitten by someone inexperienced who did not know the proper force.

Jiang Li woke up at once, and in the next second, she almost turned to stone.

In the hazy moonlight, the face lightly biting the corner of her mouth was clearly Ye Qingruo’s.

Jiang Li widened her eyes, held Ye Qingruo’s head, and pushed. Then she began breathing heavily.

What the hell? This was harassment!

This woman had actually tried to take advantage of her while she was asleep!

Jiang Li was shocked. Amid her shock, she heard two tearful, muffled words fall by her ear.

“More…”

Jiang Li: “!!!”

More, my ass! Help!

She forcefully pushed away the person on top of her. Unfortunately, this body was too weak. She had only just sat up when her waist was grabbed and she was pulled back. Before she could cry out in alarm, she felt a chill at the center of her brow. Then she could no longer move. Her slightly parted mouth was sealed again.

Her entire body was once more pressed down onto the bed.

Jiang Li: “!!!” Ten thousand horses trampled through her heart. This woman was actually using force.

The corner of her lips was being kissed without any technique at all. Jiang Li’s heart was ashen, and she very much wanted to close her eyes and pretend to be dead. Unfortunately, she could not even blink her lashes. She had completely lost the ability to resist.

Just as she thought she was about to lose her innocence, Ye Qingruo suddenly stiffened.

Her muddled mind finally found a trace of clarity. Ye Qingruo bit down hard on the tip of her own tongue. Intense pain struck, and the restlessness scattered. A streak of blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth, running down her chin and staining her snow-white collar red. It was clear how fiercely she had bitten herself.

“Jiang Li, what did you do to me?” Ye Qingruo flew off the bed, holding her long sword as she coldly shouted.

Jiang Li rolled her eyes, feeling exhausted. She did not know whether she should be glad that her eyeballs could still move.

She wanted to ask that too. Who had done what to whom exactly?!

Was there no justice left?

Ye Qingruo calmed her unbalanced heartbeat and forcibly made herself settle down, her brows and eyes cold.

“Speak. What did you do to me?”

Jiang Li moved her eyes, thinking, Then give me a chance to speak! What pure and noble white moonlight? She was clearly a sanctimonious female hooligan.

Looking at Jiang Li, who could not move, Ye Qingruo raised a finger.

Jiang Li felt another chill at the center of her brow, and her hands and feet could move again at once. She hurriedly grabbed the quilt and pointed at Ye Qingruo, accusing her. “Young Sect Master, you went too far. You took advantage of me while I was asleep, and now you are turning around and blaming me. You… you…”

Halfway through her accusation, she suddenly realized that the white moonlight before her was at the Golden Core stage, while she herself was just a tiny Qi Refining trash. If her words were too harsh, would she be silenced?

At this thought, Jiang Li’s face turned pale, and she fell into a rapid coughing fit. Part of it was an act using her weak body, but part of it was also genuine panic.

Ye Qingruo stared closely at Jiang Li’s expression. Seeing her frightened face and nonstop coughing, which did not seem fake, the memories within the haze also became clearer.

It seemed that she had been the one to take the initiative. This person’s cultivation and physical strength were also insufficient to do anything to her.

Could this person really be innocent?

“Get out.”

Ye Qingruo coldly snapped. Jiang Li felt as if she had been pardoned. She no longer cared about coughing and rushed straight out the door.

Fuck, she survived!

Slowly, Jiang Li also began to figure things out. Ye Qingruo seemed to have lost control. Could it be that she had suffered cultivation deviation?

Inside the room, Ye Qingruo inspected herself. Only after discovering that there was nothing abnormal with her body did she let out a slight breath of relief. Just now, she had forced herself awake despite risking instability in her state of mind.

What exactly was going on? Did it really have nothing to do with Jiang Li?

Ye Qingruo checked repeatedly several more times, but still found no problem.

After thinking for a moment, she walked out the door.

Standing outside, Jiang Li was hesitating over whether she should leave. But if she left Qingxi Sect, where else could she go? She also did not know how to contact Xiao Hu, and she did not want to go somewhere surrounded by demons.

Just then, the door opened.

Jiang Li was startled and subconsciously hugged her arms tightly. “Young Sect Master, are you all right?”

Ye Qingruo glanced at her and said coldly, “I will return to the sect first. Junior Sister Jiang Li may do as she wishes.”

She could not find the reason why she had lost control. She only wanted to return to Qingxi Sect quickly and ask her father and adoptive father to examine whether anything had happened to her body.

Jiang Li opened her mouth, then shut it tightly again. Good that she was leaving. Good, good. That way, this person would not have another bout of cultivation deviation. Jiang Li feared that not only would her innocence be in danger, but even her life might not be spared.

When daylight came, Jiang Li sighed deeply. Since the assassination had been staged by the little cannon fodder herself, she should be able to return safely.

The carriage once again drove toward Qingxi Sect.

In midair, a black shadow followed closely. Seeing that there was only Jiang Li inside the carriage, joy inevitably rose in his heart. This was truly a heaven-sent opportunity.

The black shadow blocked the carriage from above. With one palm strike, the black horse neighed and collapsed with a crash. The coachman did not even make a sound before his breath was cut off.

Jiang Li only felt the carriage suddenly stop. She had just heard the horse’s neigh when she saw the coachman, dead with his eyes open, half of his body falling through the carriage curtain.

Jiang Li nearly screamed. She had lived this long, but this was the first time she had seen someone die right in front of her. It almost scared her to death.

It was over. Sure enough, in the cultivation world, killing people was as easy as playing. It could not be Ye Qingruo coming back, right? Had the white moonlight turned evil?

So the little cannon fodder was supposed to die at this time? She had relaxed too early!

“Come out yourself, or shall this old man invite you out?”

A deliberately lowered voice came from outside, but it was still possible to tell that it belonged to a man.

Jiang Li was even more shocked. And who exactly are you?

“Hmph. You do not know what is good for you.”

The black-clothed man seemed to become impatient waiting. With a low shout, he directly slashed out with his sword. This slash carried spiritual power, enough to split the carriage apart.
