We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

Chapter 197: Who Asked You to Praise Me, Stinky Senior Brother

Yu Yunwei only saw the boy in front of her raise his long blade and swing it once.

Blood-red baleful qi followed the boyʼs Tang sword as it struck out, thick like surging tidewater, but this ”blood-red tide” condensed into a crimson thin sheet, like a blade edge, slicing across the giant snakeʼs neck.

When the Spirit Absorbing Sword was sheathed again, that massive snake head fell to the ground, while the snakeʼs body continued twitching.

The snake blood that had originally sprayed toward the boy was also blocked by the blade qi, falling at his feet.

Yu Yunwei stared blankly at everything before her.

Although Yu Yunwei had some understanding of Xiao Moʼs strength and knew he could kill cultivators across two realms, the problem was this was a Rock-skin Python!

Its hardened body would give even Golden Core realm cultivators some trouble.

But for her senior brother, it was still just this simple single blade strike.

In Yu Yunweiʼs heart, she no longer knew what couldnʼt be cut down by him.

Yu Yunwei couldnʼt even imagine how terrifying he would be when he entered the Upper Three Realms!
Was he really human?

Just as Yu Yunwei was in a daze, Xiao Mo turned around and glanced at her.

To Yu Yunwei, her senior brotherʼs gaze was still as indifferent as always, no different from usual but somehow, this calm gaze gave her an indescribable sense of security.

Although he often struck her palms and made her do things she didnʼt like, it seemed that as long as he was by her side, she didnʼt need to fear anything.

Xiao Mo held his blade sheath and tapped both sides of her petrified calves.

The stones wrapping around Yu Yunweiʼs calves instantly cracked apart.

”What are you dazing about?” Xiao Mo looked at Yu Yunwei indifferently.

”I...” Yu Yunweiʼs throat moved, wanting to say something, but when the words reached her lips, she couldnʼt speak.

”Itʼs getting late, letʼs go, back to the sect.”

Xiao Mo turned around and walked toward the mountain path down.

”Wait...”

Just as Yu Yunwei stepped forward to follow, her legs gave out and she sat on the ground.

Xiao Mo turned around, looked at Yu Yunwei sitting sideways on the ground, and said calmly, ”Whatʼs wrong?”

Yu Yunweiʼs eyes misted over as she bit her lip irritably, ”My legs have no strength...”

Xiao Moʼs expression looked somewhat speechless, but he still walked forward, turned his back to her and crouched down, ”Come up, Iʼll carry you.”

Yu Yunwei looked at Xiao Moʼs back, hesitated for a moment, then finally knelt and placed her hands on Xiao Moʼs shoulders.

Xiao Mo hooked under Yu Yunweiʼs knees and carried her on his back.

”Wait.”

Just as Xiao Mo was going down the mountain, Yu Yunwei called out.

”What now?” Xiao Mo asked.

”The Red Moon Fruits!” Yu Yunwei patted Xiao Moʼs shoulder, ”Those are good things, I almost lost my life because of them.”

After Xiao Mo collected the seven Red Moon Fruits, he carried Yu Yunwei down the mountain.

Yu Yunwei leaned against Xiao Moʼs back, holding the translucent blood-red Red Moon Fruit in one hand, examining it carefully, occasionally turning her gaze to look at Xiao Moʼs profile.

Yu Yunwei wanted to say something several times but hesitated.

Finally, Yu Yunwei mustered her courage, ”Senior... Senior Brother, why did you come?”

”To protect your path,” Xiao Mo said, then further explained, ”Black Cloud Mountainʼs magical beasts are only sixth grade at most. Xue Kui didnʼt need to come, I was sufficient.”

”So you were watching us the whole time?”

Yu Yunweiʼs face turned slightly pale.

Then those people she killed...

Xiao Mo glanced sideways at Yu Yunwei and immediately understood the girlʼs thoughts, ”They moved to kill you first. You did nothing wrong, I wonʼt punish you.”

”Oh.”

Hearing Xiao Moʼs words, Yu Yunwei responded and breathed a sigh of relief.

The setting sun cast a layer of soft golden light across the wilderness.

Xiao Mo stepped on fallen leaves, making rustling sounds.

The long mountain path wound downward, with pine trees on both sides quietly casting slanted shadows.

Warmth floated in the air, and the distant mountain silhouettes became gentle.

Mountain breezes occasionally brushed by, carrying the faint scent of dry grass and pine needles. Dogtail grass swayed slightly, their ears glimmering with scattered light under the setting sun.

Yu Yunwei watched her senior brother alertly surveying their surroundings, pursed her lips lightly, and spoke with deliberate pride in her tone:

”I originally wanted to eat this Red Moon Prime Fruit myself, but since you saved me, and youʼre almost at Dragon Gate realm, I donʼt want to owe you anything, so Iʼll give it to you.”

”I donʼt need it,” Xiao Mo refused decisively, ”For me to enter Dragon Gate realm, why would I need such things? Over-relying on external objects to break through realms only leads to unstable foundations. Think clearly before eating it, understand?”

Yu Yunwei gritted her teeth, ”I! Under! Stand!”

”Fine, donʼt eat it then!” Yu Yunwei muttered softly and put the Red Moon Fruit in her storage bag.

Xiao Mo ignored her and continued walking down.

The setting sun gradually sank toward the mountain ridge, the light becoming increasingly gentle, like a thin veil covering them. The sky was dyed with pale orange-red, cloud wisps edged with fine golden threads.

Before long, Yu Yunwei rested her head on his shoulder, sometimes blinking at him, sometimes gently lowering her head as if thinking about something.

Today the girl seemed a bit awkward.

”Senior Brother.”

After a long while, Yu Yunwei spoke again.

”Speak if you have something to say.”

”Why... why did you save me?” Yu Yunwei asked nervously.

”What do you mean?”

”Donʼt you dislike me, Senior Brother?” Yu Yunwei pouted, ”And if I died, youʼd be Masterʼs only disciple! Master would focus all her attention on you!”

”First,” Xiao Mo answered truthfully, ”Whether I like or dislike you, Iʼve never considered. For me, thereʼs only disappointment and not disappointment.”

”Second, I donʼt care at all about becoming Xue Kuiʼs only disciple.”

”So are you quite disappointed in me?” Yu Yunwei asked again.

Xiao Mo glanced at her indifferently, ”Why do you ask such an obvious thing?”

”You!” Yu Yunweiʼs shoulders heaved violently with anger, her legs swaying constantly, ”I donʼt want you to carry me anymore! Put me down!”

”Really?” Xiao Mo asked.

”I...” Yu Yunwei was instantly speechless.

Because she knew that if she said ”really,” he would actually put her down.

”However...”

Just as Yu Yunwei was cursing ”dog senior brother” over ten times in her heart, Xiao Mo slowly spoke.

”This time on the mission, you performed quite well.”

”You worked hard.”

Yu Yunwei stared blankly at her dog senior brother.

In her heart, it was as if a warm current slowly flowed through.

Just like a child receiving candy, so sweet.

”Who asked you to praise me?”

Yu Yunwei turned her head away, her small hands unconsciously gripping his clothes tighter, her slightly wavering eyes carrying a hint of stubbornness.

”Stinky senior brother.”
