Battle Through the Heavens: Beauties Abound Starting with Yunlan and Her Disciples

362: Section 362She truly couldn’t watch any longer and had to cough lightly twice to offer a reminder.

”Wind Venerable, please... mind your grace.” ”Grace? What’s that? Is it edible?”

Wind Idle turned back, giving Yun Yun a strange look, then waved her hand dismissively.

”Oh, don’t make a fuss. I, Wind Idle, never see outsiders and am incredibly mysterious, so I naturally have grace.”

”What’s the problem with being so intimate with my own husband?” Her own... husband?

These words were like an invisible heavy hammer, slamming hard into everyone’s hearts.

Yun Yun, Cai Lin, Yun Ziyi, and even Yao Chan in her soul body state, all wore expressions of disbelief.

The one who took the most critical hit was Mu Qingluan. ”Pfft—”

She felt her vision go dark as a surge of heat gushed uncontrollably from her nostrils.

Under the impact of endless shame, shock, and information overload,

the favored daughter of the Starfall Pavilion rolled her eyes and fell straight back, fainting on the spot. The gushing nosebleed quickly soaked a large patch of her green robes.

Facing such a proactive and uninhibited Wind Venerable, who could be called a ”temptress of the mortal world,” even Yun Xiancheng couldn’t help but feel his blood boil.

But would he refuse? Of course not.

Under the complex and unreadable gazes of the ladies, Yun Xiancheng did not retreat; instead, he revealed a gentle smile.

He reached out, ignoring that startling softness, and accurately grasped Wind Idle’s boneless, jade-like hand. The touch was smooth and delicate, unlike that of an ordinary person, clearly a hand from a pampered lady who had never done a day’s work. ”Since the Venerable favors me so much...”

Yun Xiancheng felt that soft warmth and looked into Wind Idle’s eyes, which were filled with expectation and playfulness. He nodded and said with sincere tone,

”I do indeed have that intention. So... when can we get married?” As soon as he said this, the entire place fell into a deathly silence.

The lazy smile on Wind Idle’s face stiffened slightly, then turned into an even richer grin, like a fox that had stolen a chicken. Meanwhile, Yao Chan, who was to the side, was completely petrified.

Her translucent soul body just floated in mid-air, her mouth open wide enough to fit an egg. Her entire being was trembling violently in the wind of ”chaos.”

I... I only asked you to come see my best friend! How... how did you even pick up my best friend?! And right in front of me?!

No! Wait! It seems... it seems like my best friend made the first move? What... what is all this!

445 Anti-Yao Chan Great Thunder Alliance

As the other party at the center of this storm, Yun Yun finally snapped back to her senses from that world-shaking declaration.

She looked at Wind Idle, who was still clinging to her disciple like a supple vine, and felt the startling pressure from that curvaceous body that threatened to swallow Yun Xiancheng whole.

An unprecedented sense of crisis and responsibility instantly surged into her heart. No! Absolutely not!

Chenger is my disciple, and also my... man.

As his master, how can I stand by and watch him be ”ravaged” by this woman who appeared out of nowhere and whose conduct is almost beyond bold? ”Wind Venerable, please have some self-respect!”

Yun Yun took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in her heart, and took a step forward, assuming the bearing of a Sect Leader.

Her phoenix eyes held authority, and her voice was cold and firm as she tried to force the other back with her momentum. ”Chenger is my disciple, and you and I are both elders. Such behavior is unseemly!” ”Oh? Your disciple?”

Hearing this, Wind Idle finally deigned to move her gaze away from Yun Xiancheng’s handsome face.

She lazily tilted her head, those eyes that always seemed half-asleep now possessing a sharp insight that could pierce through hearts as she looked Yun Yun up and down.

Her gaze eventually landed on Yun Yun’s snow-white, jade-like neck and collarbone, which faintly shimmered with a lustrous glow. The playful smile at the corner of her mouth became increasingly obvious.

Wind Idle smacked her lips, her voice not loud, but clearly reaching every corner of the hall.

”Sect Leader Yun’s complexion and skin don’t look like those of someone practicing asceticism. That spring-like air hidden in your eyes, and the charm that inadvertently leaks out in your every move...”

”I’m afraid you’ve already been ’nourished’ by this good disciple of yours more than a few times, haven’t you?”

”Boom—!”

These words were like a bolt of lightning from the nine heavens, accurately striking the crown of Yun Yun’s head.

Her cheeks instantly turned a magnificent crimson from her ears to her neck. ”You... what nonsense are you talking about!”

Yun Yun was both ashamed and anxious, her voice even trembling slightly. Although the other Young ladies had known about this for a long time,

having such a thing exposed by someone who was still technically an outsider still made Yun Yun feel quite bashful. ”Me, talking nonsense?”

Wind Idle looked as if she had heard the world’s biggest joke. Not only did she not let go of Yun Xiancheng,

she instead pressed her cheek even more intimately against Yun Xiancheng’s chest, rubbing against him contentedly before raising her eyes to lazily glance at Yun Yun.

”Sister, we are all women. Some things cannot be hidden.” She said slowly, her tone full of certainty.

”That scent of being loved by a man on you, I can smell it from eight hundred miles away. You’ve eaten the sweetest fruit yourself, wiped your mouth clean, and now you’re putting on the airs of a master to drive away newcomers? Where is the logic in that? You want to do the deed but still keep your reputation; Sect Leader Yun, that’s not very fair of you.”

These words were like knives, each drawing blood,

stripping away Yun Yun’s disguise of ”masterly dignity” until nothing was left but a young woman’s shame and embarrassment. ”I... I didn’t... Chenger and I are... are mutually in love...”

Yun Yun stammered, trying to defend herself, but those flushed cheeks and dodging eyes made any of her words seem pale and weak. Especially when she saw the look of helplessness mixed with a bit of amusement in Yun Xiancheng’s eyes,

her last bit of courage completely dissipated.

In the end, this once majestic Sect Leader of the Cloud Mist Sect could only turn into a startled little rabbit.

Blushing, she stomped her foot and turned to hide behind Yun Xiancheng’s broad back, no longer daring to show her face. ”Pfft.”

An unmasked chuckle broke the awkward situation.

Cai Lin leaned to the side, her peerlessly beautiful face full of schadenfreude.

She admired Yun Yun’s state of utter embarrassment and spoke leisurely, her cold voice carrying a queen-like teasing tone:

”Great Sect Leader Yun, giving up already? It seems this Wind Venerable’s skill is even deeper than this King imagined.” Yun Yun was so ashamed she wished she could turn into a cloud and float away. She could only bury her face in Yun Xiancheng’s back and whisper a mosquito-like protest:

”I haven’t... I just feel that what the Wind Venerable says... also has some truth... She... she and Chenger... are indeed quite a match, and... and being sisters with us... is also very good.”

To hide her embarrassment, she didn’t hesitate to ”defect” in an instant, categorizing the opponent she had just seen as a ”monster” directly into the ”one of us” camp.

”You spineless thing!”

Yao Chan watched from the side, jumping in frustration.

She had been counting on Yun Yun to stand up for her and suppress the improper arrogance of Wind Idle.

Who would have thought that within a few sentences, her main general would directly defect to the enemy! Cai Lin ignored the ostrich who had already shrunk away and instead walked forward with graceful steps.

She proactively walked up to Wind Idle, extending her slender jade hand with a sincere yet slightly scrutinizing smile. ”Sister has good methods and great vision.”

Cai Lin grasped Wind Idle’s equally boneless hand, subtly placing herself in the position of the ”older sister” with her words:

”In the future, we sisters should get closer. Please take good care of my husband, sister.” ”Sister must be joking.”

A person like Wind Idle could naturally hear the subtle ”declaration of sovereignty” and the intent to be the elder sister in Cai Lin’s words. But she didn’t mind; instead, she went along with it, her smile becoming increasingly charming.

”Being able to serve our husband with several sisters is Wind Idle’s fortune. In the future, I must ask the sisters for more guidance.” She called her ”sister” without any hesitation at all.

Immediately after, she turned her gaze toward Yun Ziyi, who had been leaning lazily to the side all along with an air of indifference, and also sweetly called out: ”Greetings to Sister Ziyi.”

Yun Ziyi lazily lifted her eyelids, her purple pupils filled with appreciation, signifying her acceptance of this new sister joining them.

In her view, having one more sister like Wind Idle, who knew how to enjoy and understand life, was a great thing. Finally, Wind Idle’s gaze leisurely fell upon Yao Chan, who was so angry her soul body was becoming unstable.

The smile at the corner of her mouth became as quirky as a fox’s. ”Sister Yao Chan,”

She deliberately elongated her tone, her voice so soft and sweet it could practically drip water.

”Look, the elder sisters have all agreed; you’re the only one still being difficult. Why? Could it be that you actually want to fight me for our husband?” ”Who is your sister! Wind Idle, you old hag, I am older than you! You should be calling me ’Sister’!”

Yao Chan’s fur stood on end instantly, and she put her hands on her hips, ready to argue.

”Oh?” Wind Idle widened her eyes in feigned surprise.

”But back at the Starfall Pavilion, every time you caused trouble, didn’t you always come crying and shouting for ’Sister Wind Idle,’ begging me to help clean up your mess? What, after not seeing each other for just a few years, you’re turning your back on me?”

As soon as these words were spoken, Yao Chan’s arrogant fire was immediately halved.

Indeed, looking back, although her alchemy skills were unsurpassed in her generation and her cultivation realm once led the way,

when it came to worldly wisdom and handling people, she couldn’t even hold a candle to this best friend who was born knowing how to manipulate hearts. Every time trouble arose, it was ultimately Wind Idle who stepped in, using her lazy and casual manner to quietly settle everything. For a moment, buried memories flooded her heart, and Yao Chan was actually left somewhat speechless.

Wind Idle was socially adept; within a few words, she had reached an invisible alliance with ’elder sisters’ like Cai Lin, Yun Yun, and Yun Ziyi, collectively establishing a family status where Yao Chan, the ’irascible old best friend,’ would be doted upon like a naughty younger sister.

Seeing that the internal friction had been perfectly resolved the moment she joined, and that a preliminary harmony in the harem had been achieved, Wind Idle nodded with satisfaction.

She no longer fussed over the issue of titles, but looked around, her expression gradually becoming serious. ”Alright, sisters, the playfulness should end here.”

Though her voice remained lazy, it carried the authority and decisiveness belonging to a Dou Zun expert. ”Now that we’ve found Yao Chan, there’s no longer any need to participate in this Four Pavilions Grand Competition.” She paused and continued:

”In the past, I was used to being lazy and solitary, so playing house with those old fellows from the Four Pavilions didn’t matter. But things are different now.”

”We sisters are of one heart, and we have a husband who is such a world-supporting hero. Our sights, naturally, can no longer be limited to this corner of the Northern Region.”

Wind Idle’s words captured everyone’s attention. Even Yun Yun, who was hiding behind Yun Xiancheng, couldn’t help but poke half her head out to listen curiously.

”Our goal should be the entire Central Plains!” A light of wisdom and ambition flashed in Wind Idle’s eyes. ”The first step begins with the Pill Tower!” Her gaze turned toward Yao Chan:

”Sister Yao Chan, that old friend of yours in the Pill Tower must hold a high position by now, right? With your friendship, combined with our husband’s peerless charm and unpredictable methods, making her willingly join our big family shouldn’t be difficult. Once we win her over, the Pill Tower will be our ally!”

Then, her gaze drifted into the distance, as if she could already see another scene of blooming prosperity.

”Then, there is the Flower Sect. They say the Flower Sect has countless beauties, each with impressive strength, but the entire sect is dominated by women. Those elders and disciples must be quite lonely in their hearts.”

”As long as we borrow our husband’s power to display divine might and then offer great benefits, are we afraid they won’t submissively join us?”

”At that time, the entire Flower Sect will become our sisters’ back garden. Whoever we want will be just a word away from our husband.”

With Yun Xiancheng’s personal charm and powerful strength as the core, through ’marriage’ and ’subjugation,’ they would transform the top powers of the Central Plains into their own harem and supporters!

Chenger would have to work hard, but he would surely be very willing.

”As long as we take the Pill Tower and the Flower Sect, combined with our Starfall Pavilion and the other forces in husband’s hands, it will be enough for us to become a superpower dominating the Central Plains! That way, seeking revenge against the Hall of Souls won’t be a problem either.”

Wind Idle’s final sentence was spoken with powerful resonance.

True to her reputation for being socially adept, while most of the girls weren’t interested in the politics, they all felt their blood boil hearing her words. Upon hearing this, the women’s eyes shone brightly, and they all nodded in unison.

Then, they simultaneously turned their gazes—filled with expectation, trust, and burning love—toward the man who had been held in Wind Idle’s arms from beginning to end with a helpless expression.

Feeling the burning gazes from behind, from his arms, and from all directions, and hearing this somewhat ridiculously grand ’harem Expansion Plan,’ Yun Xiancheng felt his head throbbing.

What else could he say?

As the ’Commander-in-Chief,’ it seemed his only role was to work hard and cooperate. Yun Xiancheng sighed helplessly, meeting the expectant gazes of the women. ”I am a man of principle.”

Chapter 446: Marriage

After Wind Idle officially decided to join Yun Xiancheng’s big family, the first thing she did was to grandly and ostentatiously drive her magnificent ’Green Carriage Cloud Palanquin’ directly into the widest docking port of the star chaser. This massive space ark contained its own world within, and accommodating a single Cloud

Palanquin was naturally more than enough.

From then on, this Dou Zun expert comfortably treated the star chaser as her home. she had no self-consciousness of being an outsider, nor the airs of a regional hegemon.

By the very second day, she had completely figured out all the entertainment facilities on the star chaser and was enjoying them tirelessly.

Whether it was the hot spring pool with its natural spring and misty atmosphere, or the study filled with all sorts of rare novels and chess manuals,

or the back garden planted with countless exotic flowers where bees and butterflies danced, her lazy and comfortable figure could be found everywhere. The girls on the ship soon discovered what was unique about this new ’Sister Wind Idle.’

She didn’t seem at all like the majestic and cold Pavilion Master of the Four Pavilions, but rather like a knowledgeable and lazy older sister from next door.

She would listen with great interest as Xiao Yi Xian shared her experiences in petty theft and extortion, then lazily offer a few comments, always pointing out more hidden and efficient ’robbery methods,’ making Xiao Yan’s eyes light up as she called her an expert.

She would also, when Liu Qing was troubled by a certain Dou Technique she couldn’t master, pick up a tree branch at random.

With a few casual demonstrations, she would clearly break down the most core obstacles, allowing the young girl to have a sudden realization.

More often, she would pull out all sorts of small snacks and trinkets from her wide sleeves, accurately feeding them into the hands of every girl who spoke to her.

Those snacks had unique flavors and were rare treasures seldom seen in the outside world, quickly capturing the hearts of the Young ladies on the ship. Thus, a strange scene appeared on the star chaser.

Whenever Wind Idle lay lazily on a rocking chair in the garden sunbathing, there would always be a crowd of beautiful Young ladies surrounding her,

chirping and sharing all sorts of interesting stories, the atmosphere incredibly harmonious. In stark contrast was Yao Chan.

This Venerable Yao was practically like a frightened hamster in front of Wind Idle.

Before Wind Idle appeared, she dared to occasionally manifest as a soul body to tease Yun Xiancheng or guide the alchemy skills of the few girls on the ship.

But since Wind Idle boarded the ship, she wished she could hide in the depths of Yun Xiancheng’s consciousness twenty-four hours a day, never showing her head. However, how could Wind Idle let her have her way? This Wind Venerable, who knew her best friend’s temperament well, always had ways to lure her out.

”Sister Yao Chan, I’ve obtained a new ancient remnant recipe, come help me study it?” ”Sister Yao Chan, you love this newly brewed Hundred Flower Honey the most, come out and taste it?”

”Sister Yao Chan, if you don’t come out, I’m going to Little Brother Xiancheng’s room to have some real fun with him?”

Whenever this happened, Yao Chan could only manifest in a fit of rage, glaring at Wind Idle, yet unable to do anything about her. The way the two of them bickered became a unique sight on the star chaser.
