Chapter 414 How about I listen too?
“Puff! Hahahaha…!”
As soon as Liu Yanran came over, she heard what Zhao Xiruo said and couldn't help laughing out loud.
She held onto the side of the boat, laughing so hard that her body shook uncontrollably. It took her a while to catch her breath. She wiped away her tears, leaned in front of Zhao Xiruo, and said with a smile, "You just realized it!"
Zhao Xiruo and Yun Chen looked confused and turned to look at Liu Yanran beside them.
"Senior Sister Liu, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Yanran looked around and confirmed that Bai Qingluo had indeed gone far away. Then she lowered her voice with a mischievous smile on her face: "What I mean is, our Second Senior Sister has a secret that is not really a secret - she likes women!"
When Yun Chen heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched suddenly and his expression became extremely interesting.
Zhao Xiruo was completely stunned, her eyes wide open, with an expression of disbelief.
She felt her cheeks burning instantly, and even her ears turned red.
Recalling Bai Qingluo's focused and gentle gaze just now, as well as her undisguised protectiveness...it turned out that it wasn't just the senior sister's appreciation and care for the junior sister, but...
"You, you mean... Second Senior Sister treated me..." Zhao Xiruo's voice was trembling, and her mind felt a little confused.
"That's right!" Liu Yanran nodded vigorously. Seeing the two people looking like they were facing a formidable enemy, she smiled even more happily. "Congratulations, little junior sister! Our powerful, protective, and overbearing Second Senior Sister has fallen in love with you at first sight! Although this love is not the same as that, given Second Senior Sister's personality, she will definitely cherish you dearly in the future."
She imitated Bai Qingluo's tone and said exaggeratedly: "'Junior Sister Ruoruo is so lovely, how can we allow others to covet her? Yunchen boy, stay away from her and don't disturb her quiet cultivation.'
After she finished speaking, she was overjoyed.
After hearing this, Zhao Xiruo felt overwhelmed.
She looked at Yun Chen for help, her eyes full of "what to do".
The corners of Yun Chen's mouth twitched wildly, and he turned around and pulled Zhao Xiruo to his side.
"Don't worry, I'm here... no one can snatch you from me."
Zhao Xiruo smiled bitterly and nodded when she heard that. Recalling Bai Qingluo's eyes, she suddenly felt a chill.
I'm a straight woman, and being noticed by a woman, just thinking about it...
It’s better to stay away from this Second Senior Sister in the future.
.........
Inside the flying boat cabin.
Bai Qingluo walked in and saw Elder Lei standing in front of the porthole with his hands behind his back and a frown on his face.
Hearing footsteps, he turned around and saw Bai Qingluo, his expression softened slightly.
"Qingluo, you're here!"
"Elder Lei, is there something wrong?"
Bai Qingluo looked at Elder Lei, raised his eyebrows, and went straight to the point.
Elder Lei didn't bother to care about her attitude. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "You were sent to the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts to rescue Murong Xue. Why did you suddenly come back?"
There were so many people around that he didn't have time to ask, so he had to wait until the matter was over and ask in private.
Bai Qingluo's expression remained unchanged as he said calmly, "The situation in the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest has changed. When we arrived, the Japanese had already evacuated, leaving behind only a few insignificant traces. Junior Sister Murong... is missing..."
"Missing? What about the others?"
Elder Lei frowned.
Bai Qingluo explained: "Elder Ouyang said that there were too many people and too many eyes, so he only left the eldest brother and the third brother, and asked the others to come back first."
Elder Lei nodded when he heard this, then he suddenly thought of something and looked up at Bai Qingluo: "No, didn't you say that everyone else is back? Then why are you the only one back? Where are the others?"
"We met people from other sects on the way. They were also attacked by the Japanese. We were worried that the Japanese wanted to disrupt the ranking competition and killed the Daxia monks, so the others went to rescue them."
Bai Qingluo spoke casually in a calm tone.
Elder Lei's eyes widened upon hearing this. "Did other cultivators also encounter Japanese ambush and murder? Why didn't you tell me about such a serious matter earlier?"
Bai Qingluo frowned, feeling dissatisfied, but still explained: "I'm just too happy to see my junior brothers and sisters. Besides, they are just a bunch of ants... what's the big deal!"
Elder Lei's beard stood on end when he heard this. He pointed at Bai Qingluo and finally uttered, "You...you! This is a matter that concerns the lives of disciples from various sects and could even affect the entire ranking competition. You actually put personal interests above public ones and delayed reporting it! Wait until your master returns, and see how she'll deal with you!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Qingluo was not frightened. Instead, he raised his chin slightly, and a hint of disapproval flashed in his cold eyes.
"Elder Lei, you're too kind. Now that I've returned, the news isn't delayed. Besides, the rescue efforts are handled by other fellow disciples. Coming back to protect our disciples and ensure their qualification for the qualifying rounds is also part of my job. How can I let personal matters take precedence over public ones?"
Elder Lei was so angry at her righteous and eloquent argument that he stared at her, but he knew the character of this second senior sister very well, and it was a waste of time to argue with her.
He snorted heavily, waved his sleeves and said, "Forget it! You go down first. I will immediately inform the other sects and ask them to take precautions."
"Ok!"
Bai Qingluo readily agreed, but the slightly raised corners of her lips showed that she didn't take Elder Lei's words to heart.
What kind of big waves can a bunch of jumping clowns make?
She said no more and turned to leave the cabin.
Watching her leave, Elder Lei sighed, turned his head to look out the window, a hint of worry in his eyes.
The Japanese chose to take action in the early stage of the qualifying round instead of earlier.
The most important thing is that the leader is missing...
"I hope everything goes well!"
He muttered to himself and picked up the sound stone on the table.
.........
On the other side, on the deck.
Yun Chen and Zhao Xiruo had just breathed a sigh of relief, but before they had time to say a few more words, they felt a familiar, slightly oppressive aura approaching from afar.
The two of them stiffened at the same time, and they loosened their clasped hands and moved a little further apart.
Bai Qingluo's figure appeared at the entrance of the deck. She swept her eyes over and landed precisely on the two people who were deliberately standing a little apart. Her cold eyes narrowed slightly.
She walked calmly to Zhao Xiruo, automatically ignoring Yun Chen beside her.
"Junior Sister Ruoruo, I need to talk to you alone about some matters concerning cultivation. Please follow me."
Her voice was much softer than when she was in front of Elder Lei, but it still carried an unquestionable tone.
When Zhao Xiruo heard this, the color instantly drained from her face, her eyes were filled with panic and helplessness, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at Yun Chen.
It would be fine if she didn't know, but now that she knows Bai Qingluo has a problem with his sexual orientation, she naturally doesn't want to.
"Ahem...um, how about I listen too?"
Yun Chen coughed dryly and looked at Bai Qingluo.
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qingluo's gaze swept towards him.
