Chapter 353: Chapter 353: Lion’s Roar
Entering the room, Lin Yun was simply speechless at Caiyi’s behavior. ’Has this woman gone mad? I haven’t even offended her, yet she’s acting like I’m her sworn enemy.’
"How bizarre," he muttered. Then, Lin Yun pushed the woman from his thoughts and settled down to cultivate.
While Lin Yun cultivated, Puzhu was being pestered to no end by Lu Bingning and Lan Xi. Every day, the two of them would ask him dozens of times when they could see Lin Yun.
With no other choice, Puzhu went to find Luo Feng. He found him at his usual cultivation spot and said, "Palace Master, my two disciples are practically pining away for that boy."
"Haha, that kid’s quite the womanizer," Luo Feng laughed. "Alright, bring them over. It’s no big deal."
Hearing this, Puzhu agreed, though he thought to himself, ’Lin Yun, a womanizer? He doesn’t even come close to you.’
With Luo Feng’s permission, Puzhu brought Lu Bingning and Lan Xi to the Palace Master’s residence that very day. However, they ran into Caiyi in the front courtyard.
"Elder Puzhu, what brings you here?" Caiyi greeted him with a smile. But when she saw Lu Bingning and Lan Xi behind him, her expression quickly darkened, though she had been momentarily stunned by their beauty.
From Caiyi’s perspective, ’Such beautiful women... Senior Brother must have been fooling around outside again.’ She never imagined that Lu Bingning and Lan Xi could be with Lin Yun.
"Heh, these two lasses are my disciples," Puzhu said with a chuckle. "They’re here to see Lin Yun today."
"Lin Yun?" Hearing this, a flicker of confusion crossed Caiyi’s eyes. ’They aren’t here for Senior Brother?’
She didn’t stop them, instead leading the three of them toward the small courtyard where Lin Yun was staying. Along the way, Caiyi asked the two women about their relationship with Lin Yun.
When Lu Bingning and Lan Xi told her they were Lin Yun’s women, Caiyi’s contempt for him deepened, and she mentally cursed him up and down.
’Just as I thought, there isn’t a single good man in this world. They’re all lechers.’
After bringing the three of them to Lin Yun’s door, Caiyi said only one thing to the two women, "Men are all no good. You two had better be careful not to be fooled by them."
With that said, without waiting to see if Lu Bingning and Lan Xi understood, Caiyi turned and walked away.
Watching Caiyi’s retreating figure, Lan Xi asked in confusion, "What’s wrong with her?"
"I don’t know..." Lu Bingning replied.
Just as they were speaking, the door opened. It was Lin Yun, and a gentle smile graced his lips when he saw them.
"Excellent. You’ve both broken through to the Primordial Ocean Realm," Lin Yun said happily, sensing that they had reached the First Layer.
After he spoke, Lin Yun bowed to Elder Puzhu, who was standing to the side. The four of them then sat down in the courtyard pavilion. Puzhu only stayed for a moment before taking his leave, saying that an old fellow like him had no interest in the affairs of young people.
Once Puzhu was gone, Lu Bingning and Lan Xi finally relaxed, nestling into Lin Yun’s arms on either side of him and telling him how much they had missed him. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
It was a rare reunion for the three of them. But as they talked, Lin Yun’s expression was strange. He could sense that woman, Caiyi, hiding at the courtyard entrance and eavesdropping on their conversation.
"Lin Yun, you broke through to the Sixth Layer of the Primordial Ocean Realm?" Lu Bingning was even happier than when she had made her own breakthrough. "That’s incredible! You reached the Sixth Layer in just a few months!"
Lin Yun smiled faintly at the two women, then turned his gaze to the courtyard entrance. With a hint of anger in his voice, he called out, "Isn’t it rude to eavesdrop?"
At Lin Yun’s words, Lu Bingning and Lan Xi both turned to look at the entrance. As the three of them watched, Caiyi slowly emerged.
At first, a blush crept onto Caiyi’s cheeks; it was certainly embarrassing to be caught red-handed. But she quickly composed herself and lashed out at Lin Yun instead.
"You lecher! You’re just like your master! Do you think all the women in the world are your playthings?"
Staring at Caiyi, Lin Yun still had no idea how he had possibly offended her. But this woman had come looking for trouble time and again, and now she was even eavesdropping. Lin Yun decided he was done being polite.
"Oh? Didn’t you say I couldn’t find a woman?" Lin Yun retorted with a smile. "What’s wrong, are you jealous? Or is it that no man in the entire Flawless Palace is interested in you? Well, I can’t blame them. With looks like yours, it’s certainly..."
Hearing Lin Yun’s words, Caiyi’s cute face flushed crimson. When it came to a war of words, she was completely outmatched.
Unable to take it anymore, Caiyi unleashed the universal Martial Skill of all women: the Lion’s Roar. With an explosive shout, her shrill voice cut Lin Yun off mid-sentence.
"SHUT UP...!"
The entire courtyard seemed to vibrate. Lin Yun and the two women immediately clapped their hands over their ears. When the sound died down, Caiyi was panting, clearly infuriated by Lin Yun.
In all honesty, Caiyi was far from ugly; in fact, she was quite cute. Unlike Lu Bingning and Lan Xi, Caiyi was the petite and adorable type, and her two prominent canines gave her a particularly mischievous look.
If she hadn’t always stayed by Luo Feng’s side, rarely seen by the other disciples, her popularity in the Flawless Palace probably would have rivaled that of Lu Bingning and Lan Xi.
Coupled with her status as a Celestial Spirit Realm expert, her allure to men was even greater. After all, what man wouldn’t want a beautiful, powerful cultivator as his companion?
Watching Caiyi from a short distance, Lin Yun was momentarily stunned. ’Does this woman really have a screw loose?’
After a long silence, Lin Yun finally spoke. "Are you done being crazy? The three of us are trying to have a conversation here. If you don’t have any business with us, you can leave."
"Hmph, I’m not leaving," Caiyi retorted. "You’re only a temporary guest here. I’m going to keep an eye on you, so don’t even think about trying anything inappropriate under my nose." So saying, not only did she refuse to leave, but she even walked into the pavilion and sat down with them.
Seeing Caiyi’s shamelessly defiant expression, the corner of Lin Yun’s mouth twitched. ’This woman is completely insane.’ freewёbnoνel.com
"Fine. If you won’t go, we will. Happy now?" Lin Yun said with a sigh of resignation. He then took Lu Bingning and Lan Xi by the hand and led them away.
Watching their retreating figures, Caiyi pouted, her cheeks puffed out in a huff. "Hmph! I’ll definitely expose your true colors and show them you’re just a lecher. I won’t let you get away with it so easily!"
With that, she began to follow them silently.
Lin Yun didn’t stay at Luo Feng’s residence any longer, not wanting Caiyi to ruin this precious time. He took the two women with him, and the three of them began to stroll through the Flawless Palace.
They ambled along at a leisurely pace, completely unaware that Caiyi was trailing them the entire time.
