I Really Want to Eat You Up

“Mm!”

Fortunately, nothing else went wrong until the end of this selection assembly.

Or rather, the biggest disruption had already occurred; any minor skirmishes were now irrelevant to her.

By dusk, as the sky grew darker, the Tianjian Pavilion’s new disciple selection assembly finally concluded.

Su Wanqing glanced out of the corner of her eye at the golden-haired girl behind her, whose eyes were practically glued to her.

Despite her beauty, her attitude towards Su Wanqing sent shivers down her spine.

This is bad, this is truly bad.

How could she have been so foolish and succumbed to the pressure to take her in?

This… wasn’t this essentially seeking her own doom?

Let alone the consequences she would face from that rebellious disciple Chen Xueli after a month, just being the Master of the female lead was enough for Su Wanqing to handle.

As a transmigrator with vast knowledge from countless web novels, Su Wanqing understood that being a Master was a high-risk profession, with Chen Xueli being a prime example.

And being the Master of a righteous female lead was even more dangerous.

Not only were Masters of protagonists usually cannon fodder, dying to provide a power-up reason for the protagonist, but even during the period of taking the protagonist as a disciple, if she raised them well, it would be manageable.

At best, she might be desired by the disciple and lose her purity.

At worst, she could be imprisoned by the disciple in the name of “love,” becoming like a caged bird, completely losing her freedom.

But if she treated the female lead poorly during their discipleship, it would be even more extreme than the previous scenario.

Being able to die painlessly would be the least of it, as protagonists had countless ways to make life unbearable.

“Did Elder Li leave so quickly?”

Seeing Li Ziyu about to do a good deed and disappear without a trace, after giving her such a huge surprise, did she intend to take her merits and vanish?

How could Su Wanqing miss this opportunity to sarcastically compliment her? She wanted to properly “thank” this “Good Samaritan” of Tianjian Pavilion, her “Living Yama.”

“Mm, since it’s over, it’s time for me to go back.”

Li Ziyu still didn’t notice Su Wanqing’s resentment towards her. She smiled as she looked at the Master and disciple in front of her, secretly affirming the innate fate between the two.

Presumably, Elder Su must be overwhelmed with gratitude towards her now?

After all, this was a Heavenly-grade mid-tier spirit root. Even in Hongxiu Sect, it would at least guarantee a spot as the Sect Master’s true disciple.

Now, such a genius had become a disciple of Tianjian Pavilion’s Golden Core Elder Su Wanqing. Even without relying on her reputation as the number one beauty, it was enough for her reputation to soar.

Li Ziyu shifted her gaze to the girl behind Su Wanqing, and as expected, her eyes were filled with intense gratitude.

“Heh~”

Li Ziyu winked at Ning Yuer, who also nodded in return, expressing her thanks.

“?”

Looking at the exchange of glances between the two, Su Wanqing immediately understood what was happening.

Although she didn’t say anything outwardly, her “gratitude” towards this Elder Li in her heart grew even stronger.

“Next time, when you come again, ‘definitely~ definitely~’ notify me. You’ve brought me such a ‘big surprise,’ I must thank you properly.”

Su Wanqing clasped Li Ziyu’s hands and shook them vigorously up and down, deliberately emphasizing certain words, her sarcasm clearly indicating her meaning.

But Li Ziyu, lost in her self-congratulatory belief that she had done a good deed, didn’t grasp the hidden meaning.

In her eyes, she had done a win-win deed, not only fulfilling Ning Yuer’s desire for mentorship but also giving her a talented disciple.

“Of course.”

“Then I bid farewell.”

“Goodbye.”

Su Wanqing watched Li Ziyu leave, veins bulging on her forehead and her mouth twitching, gritting her teeth and suppressing her words:

“Mm, goodbye. We must meet again.”

“Next time you visit, I’ll ‘properly’ thank you.”

“……”

Only after Li Ziyu disappeared from sight did Su Wanqing sigh and call out to Ning Yuer behind her, who still had eyes full of her.

“Alas—let’s go. Come back with me.”

“Okay…”

Su Wanqing didn’t know if it was her imagination, but when facing her, the previously confident Ning Yuer suddenly reverted to her girlish demeanor.

Su Wanqing led her new disciple, getting acquainted with the surroundings.

Along the way, she introduced the situation of Tianjian Pavilion, the rules of Qiongxiao Peak, and her own room.

Of course, the biggest rule of Qiongxiao Peak was no rules at all.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been unaware of that rebellious disciple’s intentions towards her before.

If there were rules, she might have noticed them to some extent.

However, although Qiongxiao Peak had few residents, it had quite a few rooms.

Clearing out a room for Ning Yuer to live in was easily done.

To avoid Chen Xueli causing trouble a month later, she even chose a room for Ning Yuer that was similar to Chen Xueli’s, and at a similar distance from her own room.

Because Su Wanqing had figured out that rebellious disciple, all the arrangements for bringing Ning Yuer back were within her calculations.

Even so, she knew that a month later, it was highly likely to be her death date…

“Immortal Sister, I’ve finished tidying up.”

As soon as Ning Yuer, who had finished tidying her room, opened the door, she saw Su Wanqing indulging in wine and merriment.

Although she knew she shouldn’t call her that now, she subconsciously addressed her as “Immortal Sister.”

“Since you’ve officially become my disciple, remember not to call me by any other title. Remember to call me Master.”

Su Wanqing didn’t like drinking. The reason she was drinking this time was that it was a “celebratory wine” for the one she had a month ago.

It could also be called her “funeral wine.”

After all, when that rebellious disciple returned, she wouldn’t have time to drink it.

Although Chen Xueli said she’d be back in two months, who knew exactly when she would return.

Maybe a few days early, maybe a month early, or maybe even delayed by who knows how many days.

Anyway, if she didn’t take this opportunity to have her “funeral wine” now, she wouldn’t have the chance later, and no one would hold one for her.

“Mas… Master.”

Ning Yuer didn’t know why. These were just two ordinary words, and they would be her future address for the Immortal Sister, yet why did she feel uncomfortable?

She had a hidden feeling of unwillingness, as if she didn’t want to call her “Master,” but rather “Immortal Sister.”

Moreover, she seemed dissatisfied with their current relationship. Even though she had obtained what she desired, why was she still so greedy and unfulfilled?

Not only did she want to maintain the status quo, but she also wanted to go a step further…

A more intimate relationship?

Ning Yuer recalled what the elders in the village used to say: the most intimate relationships between immortals, besides parents, were only Dao companions.

But what kind of relationship was between “Dao companions”?

Although Ning Yuer didn’t understand, she knew that what her heart sought was likely this.

Perhaps only by reaching the most intimate level would her bottomless greed be satisfied.

“Come here and let me take a look.”

After drinking four bottles of high-proof liquor, Su Wanqing, slightly tipsy, beckoned to Ning Yuer.

The girl obediently walked up to her.

“!”

Under Ning Yuer’s shocked gaze, Su Wanqing, with a faint flush on her face from the slight intoxication, gently caressed the girl’s face and marveled at her transformation.

Her touch felt even better than she had imagined; there was no trace of her being a dirty little girl from before.

“Not bad, after only a month apart, you’ve already become a little beauty.”

And perhaps stimulated by the alcohol, Su Wanqing, under Ning Yuer’s increasingly shocked gaze, uttered some morally questionable, suggestive words as if in jest.

“You’re so pretty—”

Su Wanqing playfully teased Ning Yuer’s nose with her slender finger, as if pampering a kitten, and said with a playful tone:

“I really want to gobble you up.”

“……”

But who would have thought that unintended words would be taken to heart? This sentence made Ning Yuer misunderstand.

Gobble her up? Does Immortal Sister like me?
