Chapter 8, Spring Dream

Zhou Shao said without hesitation: "I am not that foolish. If everyone knows that the master is good-looking, they will definitely compete with me for him."

Who is not normal? Your master is just too good-looking, " Zhou Shao hesitated for a moment and resolutely said: "The beautiful sister is even more attractive, I will be devoted to the beautiful sister and will never change my mind!

Bai Guan observed my hesitation and smiled, saying: "Even if you teach him with all your heart, his nature may not necessarily be refined."

What a fierce dog, I silently praised, as I hid with Bai Guan behind the curtain to steal a glance.

Before the words had left his mouth, Bai Guan was already dumbfounded. He awkwardly said: "Master, you... your words are no different from Zhou Shao's"

Bai Guan hurriedly explained: "This is not normal!"

I bit my lip, unsure of how to retort

"Don't make a fuss." I felt my cheeks flush with praise, unsure of where to place my hands

He slowly withdrew his kiss, using his fingertips to silence my cries, and gently said five words: "I have been waiting for you..."

You are completely mistaken! I quickly interrupted him, rebuking, "You are like the old Wang selling melons, boasting about yourself. How can you casually speak well of your master? Your master often says, 'No one is perfect; it is valuable to know oneself.' I am naturally dull-witted and should have a greater awareness of myself. I would never dare to compete with the other immortals; I hold them in genuine respect. You should not casually make comments. If others were to hear it, it would be seen as my arrogance and rudeness!" I would never dare to compete with the other immortals; I hold them in genuine respect. You should not casually make comments. If others were to hear it, it would be seen as my arrogance and rudeness!

Le Qing kept shaking his head: "I really won't eat! Fairy Yuyao, this kid..."

Nonsense! Who is spreading such slanderous words? How dare they speak such filthy things to humiliate me! I am flushed with anger and embarrassment, feeling both anxious and furious, wishing I could leave at once.

I was almost choked to death, unable to maintain my composure, and I slammed the table in anger, asking: "What if the beauty asks you to die?"

But they will never be my favorite master

There may be men in the world who are better than the master

Bai Guan became increasingly silent as he listened, his gaze dimming.

I finally managed to catch my breath, explaining: "Your master is capable in every aspect and is extremely indulgent towards his disciples. He never makes mistakes in his work, which is why I have always listened to him since childhood. Whatever he instructs me to do, I do it without question"

I found myself contradicting myself, stammering: "Master... Master is different... Everyone acknowledges his excellence, he can do everything, while I can do nothing, we cannot be compared..."

This is a question I have never considered, leaving me speechless

What is the "Longyang preference"?

Before the words had left his mouth, Zhou Shao immediately knelt down on the ground, bowing his head and calling out: "Master, please accept this bow from your disciple!"

I : `` ... ... ''

In my desperation, I agreed to let Leqing give it a try

I have come to a realization. Zhou Shao is fifteen this year, and he is the legitimate grandson of a wealthy family, soon to be engaged. Thirty years later, when he reaches middle age, marries a beautiful wife and concubines, and has children, his temperament will surely become more stable. How could he abandon the worldly riches and blood ties to follow me to the heavenly realm and live a lonely and desolate life? I can teach him the secret methods of immortals, to cultivate his mind and nurture his character. If he cannot endure hardship and lacks fortune, upon returning to the Worry-Free Peak, I will beg for the elixir of youth and the fruit of longevity to bestow upon him, helping him to prolong his life, allowing him to live as a wealthy and leisurely person in the mortal world, filled with fragrant jade, respected by others, thus not wasting our master-disciple relationship. If he possesses fortune, I will take him back to the heavenly realm, where he can undergo a transformation and ascend as an immortal.

Bai Guan reached out and gently stroked my face, and after a long while, he said with a bitter smile: "Master, you underestimate yourself too much. You are kinder than Cang Qiong, gentler than Bai Hua, and more magnanimous than Chang'e... How could you know that there aren't formidable monsters or demon generals who admire your qualities?"

Zhou Shaoda replied: "It must be my fault."

Le Qing hurriedly transformed back to his original form, feeling guilty as he said: "Fairy Yuyao, I am incompetent, but..."

Le Qing was also taken aback. He reached out and poked Zhou Shao, who closed his eyes in resignation, ready to sacrifice himself. Le Qing, feeling helpless, could only use a spell to transmit his voice into my ear and asked, "Fairy Yuyao, what should I do? I don't want to eat people..."

I was completely awakened, ready to bite.

"Forget it, let's not bring this up again in the future," I took a deep breath to calm my anger, steadying my mind, and admonished, "Zhou Shao, you must remember that a beautiful person is not necessarily a good person; they may be as treacherous as a viper. In dealing with others, virtue should be held in the highest regard." Seeing his disbelief, I provided an example, "Just like the universally acknowledged first beauty of the Ten Heavens and Eight Wastelands, the Cang Qiong Goddess of the Demon Realm. Her beauty is soul-stirring, yet she is devoid of emotion and desire, reveling in cruelty. There are no less than eight hundred celestial beings from the Heavenly Realm who have perished in their attempts to please her..."

The bright moon is gradually obscured by dark clouds, and the courtyard is filled with pear blossoms, their subtle fragrance wafting through the cold wind that slips through the window gaps, enveloping me and making it hard to distinguish between heaven and earth. I recall my master's past teachings, gently pulling the white pipe, holding its lovely little head, and softly advising: "Silly child, your master once said, whether in the heavenly realm, the mortal world, among demons, or in the demon realm, one must adhere to the principle that one reaps what one sows. I cannot compare in beauty to Cang Qiong, nor in wisdom to Bai Hua, nor in grace to Chang'e. I am without power or influence, and most of my friends are merely acquaintances over wine. After my master departed, aside from the equally powerless Wisteria Fairy, who would care about me? Even if I were kidnapped, there would be no benefit. I possess the true teachings of Jin Yu and the unique skill of Soul Threads. Even though most of my magical powers have been sealed, ordinary low-level demon generals are still no match for me, and high-ranking demon generals disdain to act against me. Even if I were truly unfortunate and encountered a demon general of similar strength, I would simply flee. Therefore, you need not worry."

Bai Guanfu said: "Master, give up. This scoundrel is beyond saving."

Zhou Shao patted his chest and assured: "Master, rest assured, with such a celestial appearance as the Master, I guarantee that if you ask me to jump into a well, I will jump into a well; if you ask me to run into a wall, I will run into a wall, without any hesitation!"

A tear finally trickled slowly from the corner of my eye, only to quietly vanish without a trace

Zhou Shaoting, feeling a sense of longing, finally gritted his teeth and said: "No matter how handsome the master is, he is still a man; the most beautiful sister is the best! You must be the most beautiful woman in the heavenly realm. I do not want you to be my master; I want to pursue you as..."

Bai Guan burrowed into my embrace, grinning mischievously as he asked, "I have noticed that you, Master, follow the teachings of the Grandmaster in everything you do. Why is that?"

Le Qing: "I will not eat!"

I cannot help but feel moved, as I reveal my true self in the shadows, slowly walking up to him, calming the tense atmosphere, and smiling as I say: "Do not be afraid, this is merely a test, a test... a test to see if I should take you as my disciple"

Le Qingshun rolled over, and wisps of black smoke erupted from his body. The smoke coalesced, slowly revealing a large black dog standing three feet tall. It shook its oily fur, stared with blood-red eyes, bared its sharp fangs, wagged its tail, and fiercely charged into the room, pouncing into Zhou Shaohua's arms, barking loudly three times.

I lay exhausted on the pillow, quietly gazing at the beams of the ceiling, my mind a blank, until the candle burned out and darkness enveloped the surroundings

Could it be that my feelings for my master are the same as Zhou Shao's feelings for the beauty

In the face of peril, a mere mortal is capable of sacrificing their life to save others

You are mistaken, I transformed into the appearance of a master and turned around in front of him, carefully explaining the matter of accepting disciples from the mortal realm. Then I sighed and said: "My master is the most handsome man in the heavenly realm. As long as he glances back slightly, the hearts of all the fairies in the heavenly realm will flutter for three days. When he plays the jade flute, the phoenix willingly descends to the mortal world. Such charm and grace are difficult to describe, it is a pity that you are fated not to see it."

Bai Guan gently touched my face and comforted me, saying: "It's alright, I understand. In the future, you can praise your master, and I will praise my master; it won't affect each other."

Bai Guan no longer pressed for answers and quickly returned to his room

Curled up in the blanket, I gradually fell asleep. In a daze, I felt someone in the darkness carefully kissing my cheek, their warm breath brushing against me, kissing away the traces of tears, as if touching the most delicate petals.

Le Qing proposed: "Let's find a monster to scare him out of his wits"

Although Zhou Shao is unworthy, I must uphold virtue. Since I have promised to accept him as a disciple, I should treat him as my master treated me in the past, not despising his dullness, but teaching him with utmost care. I must find ways to gradually temper his lecherous nature; otherwise, he will be ridiculed by the other immortals in the heavenly realm. Losing face for my master is a minor issue, but if he were to imitate Marshal Tianpeng in flirting with fairies and be cast down to the mortal realm as a beast, or be trapped under the Five Elements Mountain or the Six Elements Mountain, how could I not feel guilty?

That hoarse and deep voice seemed to emanate from the depths of hell, yet it carried an infinite tenderness and allure

Bai Guan was extremely angry, his face changed color, and he turned his head away from me in indignation

I ask: "If a beautiful person is entertaining, would you throw yourself into a snake pit?"

Bai Guan looked at me with a strange expression. After a long time, he helplessly said: "Hey, hey, how can you casually speak well of your master?"

Le Qing's dog is overly proud; it becomes elated with just a few compliments and even wags its tail. Fortunately, I was behind the window giving it gestures as hints. It then recalled the purpose of this trip and once again began to bark fiercely.

He was very pleased with my reaction, chuckling softly a couple of times, leisurely caressing my face with great patience. Finally, he lingered with his fingertips, tracing two circles on my collarbone, adjusted my disheveled clothing, and then stood up and vanished.

As soon as his teeth touched his tongue, he suddenly grabbed my chest, kneading the red bud, and squeezed it hard.

After a moment of silence, I shook my head, forcing a faint smile, and replied in a barely audible voice: "It is late at night, you should go to bed early"

A sensitive area was attacked, and before I could think it through, I began to scream in panic

Zhou Shaojian saw the monster remaining still for a long time, quickly spread his body wide, and boldly declared: "Eat me!"

It sends chills down my spine, making me tremble incessantly

Zhou Shao was knocked to the ground by the dog, and after a moment of surprise, he revealed a brilliant smile, patted Le Qing's head, smoothed its fur, and praised: "What a good dog! Tall and mighty, with a shiny coat, it is clearly a rare find among dogs. With you guarding the beautiful sister, I am sure no petty thief would dare to come in and steal."

You are mistaken, I shook my head and interrupted, "The celestial maidens of the heavenly realm are all dignified and beautiful, indistinguishable from one another; Yu Yao is nothing remarkable..."

I sigh deeply and lament, wasting time endlessly

I thought he understood, and seeing that it was already four in the morning, I instructed him to rest early

Bai Guan sneered: "That guy is not afraid of death for a beautiful woman, so why would he fear a mere monster?"

Nonsense! I declare emphatically, your master is the best in the world!

Le Qing cried out with a mournful face: "Fairy Yuyao! Save me! I do not want to eat him!"

Bai Guan let out a cold laugh twice and asked, "You dare to openly flirt with my master and still claim to be single-minded? You don't like men? I see you have a penchant for young men, a symptom of the broken sleeve!"

Zhou Shao blinked his eyes and said: "Dog, are you hungry?"

"I want to eat you!" Le Qing roared the last sentence and pounced fiercely, her sharp claws tearing apart the embroidered bedspread, causing my eyelids to twitch in distress

Bai Guan quietly extended a finger and touched my hand's back for a moment

Looking at his clearly predatory face, I regretted it too late. I wondered if my friends in the heavenly realm would say that I had failed as a disciple after being taken advantage of, and would bind me with the Binding Rope of Immortals and strike me with lightning on the spot

I answered without hesitation: "If the master wants me to die, it must be for a reason that I deserve to die, and I should accept the punishment"

I belatedly realized the situation, feeling so embarrassed that I wanted to find a hole to hide in. I hurriedly explained to Bai Guan how gentle, capable, and kind the master is.

Zhou Shao also followed with a flirtatious look, attempting to touch, but was kicked away by Bai Guan.

"Monster! Beautiful sister! There is a monster! You should run!" Zhou Shao was finally frightened; he got up and ran a couple of steps towards the door, but suddenly stopped, retreated, and tremblingly rushed to hug Le Qing, shouting loudly, "Monster, my flesh is tastier, just eat me, don't touch the beautiful sister."

In the world, I am a law-abiding and good citizen

... ...

Le Qingchui was pulling at his ears, continuously apologizing: "I am a black dog who has become an immortal, and I do not understand the thoughts of women. When men gather together, we always speak carelessly, whether it is to comment on the beauty of the fairy from the east, the charm of the fox spirit from the west, or to praise the figure of the clam spirit from the Dragon Palace... I rarely interact with fairies, and I only speak good words, which I believe will surely bring you joy..."

Zhou Shaozheng solemnly stated: "To win a smile from a beautiful woman, I would not hesitate to face a thousand deaths"

Bai Guan was taken aback: "Is he really willing to sacrifice his life for beauty?"

I wish to cry without tears, for this mortal cannot be moved, nor can he be frightened. In this dilemma, apart from taking him as my disciple and keeping him firmly under my watch, what else can I do? Moreover, once he has the title of disciple, if he wishes to act recklessly, I can also use my position as his master to stop him

Zhou Shaoying boldly stated: "Do not harm others, feel free to eat me as you wish!"

I gradually awaken, struggling to move, only to find that my entire body, just like last time, seems to be tightly bound to the bed by countless flexible threads, unable to even move a finger

"If you don't want to say it, then don't," Bai Guan pouted and asked, "Isn't the master also not good?"

After making up my mind, I carefully instructed Zhou Shao not to speak carelessly about my celestial being.

Zhou Shao was anxious, grabbing his fur and shouting: "Don't touch the beautiful sister, eat me instead, I won't call for help!"

Bai Guan turned and left, walking to the door, when he suddenly turned back and asked: "Master, if there is someone in the world who is more capable than Master Gong, more gentle, and treats you better, would you like him as much as you like your master?"

Bai Guan asked unhappily, "Do you listen to your master in everything? Would you go to your death if he told you to?"

Bai, feeling extremely dissatisfied with this junior disciple, said indignantly: "Even if he is audacious enough to risk everything for a beauty, how foolish he is! What if he is deceived by a few words and inadvertently reveals something?"

In the darkness, I felt his fiery gaze, like a spider laying a trap, or a hungry wolf finding its prey

Bai Guan cheerfully emphasized: "I like my master the most! My master is the most beautiful and the cutest!"

Zhou Shaoyou sighed with longing: "Such a beauty exists in the world, I only regret that I cannot meet her"

Le Qing was unable to grasp the situation and continued to flatter: "Fairy Yuyao is too modest. I have heard rumors about you on the ground, saying that your skin is smoother than jade, and your flesh contains a warm fragrance, year-round..."

In the heavenly realm, I am a law-abiding good fairy

I felt my mouth twitch uncontrollably. After silently reciting the Heart Sutra three times, I detailed the matters concerning Master Jinyu and instructed, "Your master's master is naturally the grandmaster. You must respect your teachers and value the way. No matter what the grandmaster says, you must listen to him."

One must avoid anger in the pursuit of cultivation; I have maintained a tranquil and ascetic life for many years, and I cannot allow it to be destroyed in a single moment.

I was dumbfounded: "Is this guy really a fool?"

So shameless

His eyes were very clear, and I decided to trust him, sending the Five Ghosts to secretly transport him back to the room

A powerful and terrifying aura once again enveloped me, as the man's silky long hair brushed against my forehead, seemingly carrying a seductive fragrance

Bai Guan, with an innocent expression, counted on her fingers with confidence: "You said that Cang Qiong is cruel and has a bad temper. The rest I am guessing; as for the Hundred Flower Fairy, she is the leader of the flowers, accustomed to being surrounded by admirers, and her temperament is mostly proud. Even if she is willing to lower herself, she cannot behave like the Vine Flower Fairy and others. As for Chang'e abandoning her husband to ascend to the moon, this is known throughout the world. She lives alone in the Palace of Eternal Cold, feeling guilty in her heart; how can she fit in with others? In comparison, I still find my master’s temperament more endearing..."

He gently brushed aside his long hair, slightly raised my shoulder with one hand, kissed my lips, tasted a little, then slid his serpent-like tongue in, pried open my teeth, and invaded wantonly, while the other hand wrapped around my waist, slipping into my thin clothing, bringing a coolness, wandering freely over my skin

Zhou Shao is a good person blessed by the gods and Buddhas; the thought of committing murder to silence someone is something I wouldn't even dare to consider. However, he is aware of my identity, and even if he does not dare to forcibly take a fairy as his wife, if this were to be spread, it would still lead to a tremendous amount of trouble

Is it another dream

Zhou Shaozheng opened his eyes and found himself embracing a large man in an ambiguous position. He hurriedly pushed him away and spat twice, then said to me with righteous indignation: "Beautiful sister, I am devoted to you and absolutely do not like men!"

I was momentarily taken aback and furrowed my brow, asking: "Why do you arbitrarily arrange the elders and fairies? How do you know they are not good?"

Zhou Shao's eyes brightened again
