Female Lead, Something's Not Right (GL) - Chapter 10

When the Lust Flower pollen landed on her, she suddenly remembered that the Bloodvine Flower was carrying the young girl’s blood, and the Demon of Lust Flower between them had already formed. She could have left the White Tiger Pagoda while she was still lucid. With her cultivation, it wasn’t impossible to suppress the poison and return to the sect to find an antidote. But for some reason, when she looked down and saw the girl’s teary eyes, she only wanted to devour her completely.

It had been over three hundred years since she gained consciousness. In that time, she had met countless men and women, and nothing had ever been able to stir her emotions or desires. This time was the only exception; she wanted to possess her.

Completely and utterly possess her.

In the Heavenly Room of the Wanbao Pavilion, Lu Ran had just opened the door and entered the room when he saw Shen Shu holding a young girl whose face he couldn’t see. The girl was sleeping soundly in the woman’s arms.

“Wha-what’s going on?” Even with all his experience, Lu Ran’s feather fan was almost knocked to the ground in shock. “This is?” Lu Ran walked to the table and finally got a clear look at Gu Shiyan. He gasped. “Isn’t this the little outer sect disciple from the Western Marshes?! How is she here with you? And you two??”

The girl seemed to be disturbed and moved a little, but her exhausted body made her fall back into a deep sleep.

When Gu Shiyan moved, Lu Ran froze. If he wasn’t mistaken, the little outer sect disciple’s body was covered in marks of a violent s*x! He shifted his gaze to the calm and collected perpetrator, who was sipping tea.

Lu Ran’s entire face was twisted like a twisted fritter from a mortal village. Just as he was about to speak, Shen Shu gave him a faint glance. Lu Ran was forced to lower his voice. “What did you do to her? When did this happen?! The girl looks only fifteen or sixteen. How could you do such a thing?! Have you thought about what to do next?”

Shen Shu said nothing. She simply changed her posture to make the girl more comfortable in her arms. She looked down at Gu Shiyan, who was curled up like a kitten, and a smile appeared at the corner of her lips. “I have a plan for this.”

Lu Ran, still pacing back and forth in shock, stopped. He slapped his feather fan. “Oh no! The Valley Mistress of Kunlun Valley is coming!”

“It’s about time for her to arrive,” Shen Shu said, not even looking up. She tapped the communication stone on the table and ordered food to be sent over.

Lu Ran was anxious. “Is that the main point?! Don’t tell me you couldn’t see that the Valley Mistress is interested in you. What if she sees this?!”

“Since I brought her here, I’m not afraid of being seen. Besides, what does her liking me have to do with me?” Shen Shu’s tone was indifferent, as if nothing else could pique her interest besides the person in her arms. “With the Tianxuan Sect’s power, Kunlun Valley has no choice but to hand over the phoenix feather.”

As they were talking, a waiter from the Wanbao Pavilion brought in a tray of delicious dishes and placed them on the table.

Lu Ran carefully hinted, “A woman who doesn’t get what she wants can be very dangerous!” He knew that Bai Su was not as harmless as she appeared.

Shen Shu’s expression remained calm and unchanged, but the air around them filled with a murderous sword intent. “If someone is dangerous, I’ll just kill them.”

Outside the door, Bai Su, unaware of the conversation within, was filled with anticipation for the meeting. She had specifically worn her golden gossamer immortal robes today. Her waist-length silver hair was coiled with water lily hair accessories, and it was even adorned with pearlescent butterflies crafted by the Qianji Tower. Her makeup exuded an enchanting and devious allure. She was a sight to behold, a beauty that eclipsed all others, and she had attracted many onlookers along the way.

Bai Su held the jade box containing the phoenix feather, knocked on the door, and entered with a perfect smile. “True Monarch, Senior Brother Lu.” Her smile froze before it could even fade.

True Monarch Hehua was holding someone in her arms? And it was… a young girl!

Seeing this, Lu Ran quickly fanned himself and nodded. “Valley Mistress, you’ve come at the perfect time. The auction is about to begin.”

Bai Su lowered her head, her nails digging into the jade box. The expression no one could see was full of darkness and madness. Bai Su, calm down! Don’t lose your composure. There must be another reason. You’ve never heard of the True Monarch being close to anyone! Don’t overthink it!

Bai Su forced a stiff smile, walked over, and sat down. Her eyes were fixed on the person in Shen Shu’s arms. Shen Shu sensed her ill will and looked up at Bai Su. Bai Su’s heart jumped in surprise! The porcelain bowl beside her was accidentally knocked to the ground, shattering with a sharp, crisp sound.

Was True Monarch Hehua just now… feeling murderous towards her?

“Mmm…” Gu Shiyan moaned, her brow furrowed. She moved her sore body, rubbing her eyes as she slowly woke up. Her vision was blurry, and her throat was a little sore. She was still in a daze, so she tiredly and instinctively found the most comfortable position to sit on Shen Shu’s lap, her arms softly wrapped around Shen Shu’s neck.

Shen Shu thoroughly enjoyed the girl’s docile demeanor. She gently brought a cup of tea to the girl’s lips. “You’re awake? Have some water.”

The warm, silky taste of the white fungus tea slid down her throat, and Gu Shiyan felt her mind clear.

With just one look, Bai Su’s eyes were filled with an uncontrollable jealousy. She clenched her back teeth. The girl’s sleeve had slipped, revealing a large red mark, a sign of the wild passion that had occurred between them!

Kill her! Kill her! Kill her!

Shen Shu gave a faint look at Bai Su, who was breathing erratically. She quietly activated a spiritual energy shield around the girl’s body, and a powerful oppressive force was released instantly. Not just the room, but the entire Wanbao Pavilion, very few people could withstand it.

Lu Ran, as if he had expected it, raised his feather fan to block it but still took a direct hit. He was shocked that Shen Shu’s pressure was far beyond the Golden Core stage! Bai Su’s face immediately turned pale, and she spat out a mouthful of blood. The maid behind Bai Su had already fainted.

The people outside the Wanbao Pavilion were shocked. They didn’t know which great cultivator in the private room was so angry. Those who were thinking of causing trouble now held back and waited to see what would happen.

Gu Shiyan finally came to her senses. She looked at her posture and the three people in the room, whose fame she had only heard about but never met in her previous life. Her eyes widened, and she was so shocked she couldn’t breathe.

The next second, she jumped off Shen Shu’s lap. Her legs were so weak she almost fell to the ground. Luckily, someone’s arm came up and pulled her back into their embrace.

“Di-disciple…” Gu Shiyan was scared out of her wits. Her words were incoherent as she frantically pushed Shen Shu away and got up again. This time, she used all her strength to stand firmly. She didn’t understand the situation, didn’t know why she was here, and didn’t want to find out. She just wanted to leave! Now! Immediately!

“Disciple Gu Shiyan, greetings to True Monarch, Senior Uncle Lu, and Valley Mistress. This disciple will take her leave.” Gu Shiyan was like a startled rabbit. She spoke incoherently and wanted to run. To prevent Shen Shu from pulling her back, she deliberately took a detour and hid behind Lu Ran.

“Come back.” Shen Shu’s displeased voice rang out. “Sit down and eat something.”

Gu Shiyan froze in place, her feet as if they were filled with lead. She glanced at Shen Shu, who seemed about to get up, and, fearing she would do something even more outrageous, she quickly turned and sat back down beside Shen Shu.

The passionate night they shared was completely forgotten. At this moment, she was utterly annoyed with Shen Shu for putting her in such an embarrassing situation.

Shen Shu pushed a plate of delicate pastries toward her. “These are peach blossom pastries from the Baiwei Workshop. Girls like you love them.”

Gu Shiyan’s mind couldn’t process anything. She just mechanically took a pastry and stuffed it into her mouth. Shen Shu stroked the girl’s head, gently comforting her, then in the next second, she said something that made Gu Shiyan wish she could self-destruct on the spot.

“You worked hard last night. Eat more today.”

T/N: Lols, such a teaser.
