Chapter 377 (1/2)
The time to part ways always was unavoidably emotional.
After repeated imploring, Lin Yingmei, Wu Xinjie, Wu Siyou and Shi Yuan were the first to leave. Su Xing brought the other beauties back to the Immortal's Abode. Not long after Su Xing left, when Wu Xinjie saw that Su Xing was no longer present, she then stopped her advance, saying: ”Yingmei, Siyou, let us part here for now.”
”En?”
Lin Yingmei and Wu Siyou were stunned, having not anticipated that the Knowledge Star would suddenly mention this parting.
”What are you thinking of doing?” Wu Siyou asked.
”It is clear and easy to see. Xinjie is preparing to go to old tombs and ruins together with Yuan'er.” Wu Xinjie smiled.
”Ruins?? You did not mention this to Lord Husband before.” Wu Siyou wrinkled her brows.
”If Xinjie had said so just now, Young Lord definitely would not have agreed. Xinjie does not wish to make him worry. Ruins are very useful in the Star Duels.” Wu Xinjie said.
”Your Servant shall accompany you.” Lin Yingmei nodded and said.
”Yingmei, you cannot. Your mission is to gather Star Weapon materials.” Wu Xinjie shook her head.
”Your Servant cannot allow you to go to those ruins.” Lin Yingmei knew the dangers of ruins, so how could she have agreed. Wu Xinjie had lost her Star Nest. If she died, that would be a Starfall. Lin Yingmei was unable to undertake this sort of risk.
”Xinjie still has Yuan'er in accompaniment.” Wu Xinjie soothed.
”The two of you going to ruins is too dangerous. Your Servant cannot allow Elder Sister to go.” Lin Yingmei did not compromise at all.
”Little Sister Yingmei, Xinjie knows you care about Elder Sister, but now is not the time to argue. Four Star Destined Weapon Materials are hard to find. Success in one month is too uncertain. If we split more, there will then be more opportunities. Now is the time we should be thinking about Young Lord. Yingmei, are you not able to better protect Young Lord with a higher level Star Weapon?”
”But even so, Your Servant must protect the Knowledge Star and Thief Star.” Lin Yingmei's expression was very resolute.
When Wu Xinjie saw that Lin Yingmei was this dedicated, she was somewhat touched. ”Yingmei, Elder Sister appreciates your good intentions, but Xinjie has Hua Xue and the Eight Gates Black Gold Chain. Yuan'er, we are only exploring old tombs. We will not face any dangers.”
”Arguing further will only waste time, making Young Lord face more danger.” Wu Xinjie chuckled. Knowing that Su Xing's safety would always be Lin Yingmei's number one priority, as expected, after saying this, Lin Yingmei hesitated for a moment.
Wu Siyou saw the situation, and she stepped forward to say: ”Yingmei, what the Knowledge Star said is true. Allow her to go to the tombs and ruins. This way, chances will be greater some…And…” Seeing that Lin Yingmei wanted to refute, Wu Siyou's words changed topic: ”Yingmei, could it be that you feel the ranked third Knowledge Star that has signed a contract will degenerate to such a degree she would be killed by someone? Let alone that she is a Knowledge Star who possesses the Eight Gates Black Gold Chain!!”
”Yingmei, acting like a protective mother only insults the Knowledge Star's dignity.” Wu Siyou concluded.
These words made Lin Yingmei speechless.
”Then, Elder Sister, be careful!!” Lin Yingmei tightly bit her lip, setting down very big determination.
All of a sudden, a figure floated. Wu Xinjie advanced several steps forward, her lips kissing Lin Yingmei's lips like a dragonfly touching a water lily,1 softly saying: ”Thank you, Little Sister for your concern.”
Wu Siyou and Shi Yuan hung their mouths agape in astonishment.
”And many thanks to Siyou for understanding. You as well, be careful.” The Harm Star and Majestic Star were teamed up. Even if they faced a top-notch cultivator, there was no need to be afraid. Wu Xinjie felt this order was somewhat superfluous, and she could not help but laugh.
”You had best not insult the Knowledge Star's dignity!” Wu Siyou grunted.
”Of course, after all, the Knowledge Star had once attended the Seven Stars Assembly.” Wu Xinjie smiled.
Lin Yingmei and Wu Siyou sat upon their Star Beasts and rode with the wind. The two turned their gazes away. ”Sister Xinjie, you're so bold.” Shi Yuan blushed.
”Xinjie yielded Young Lord to Yingmei last night. Xinjie was only receiving a bit of interest.” Wu Xinjie waved her hand.
Shi Yuan grumbled some words, her expression quite envious of their relationship with Su Xing.
”Just how does it feel when you do that sort of stuff with Young Lord?” Shi Yuan curiously asked.
The Thief Star saw Wu Xinjie wrinkled her brows, ”Don't tell me it feels really terrible…” Shi Yuan madly perspired.
”Huh? No.” Wu Xinjie shook her head, wryly smiling: ”Very sensual and very good.”
”Then why did Elder Sister frown just now?” Shi Yuan did not understand.
”Because Young Lord is too vigorous. Xinjie is powerless to support that, so Yuan'er, you must quickly help Elder Sister alleviate a bit of the pressure.” Wu Xinjie slightly winked. These words made Thief Star Flea on a Drum's cheeks and ears burn red. However, in fact, Wu Xinjie's wrinkled brow was that whenever she was at the climax, this world seemed to become unprecedentedly unreal. She felt very wonderful yet also very strange.
Could it be that was so-called ecstasy?
Wu Xinjie thought.
”Sister Xinjie, which ruins are we going to now, This Young Lady is somewhat impatient.” Shi Yuan rubbed her palms. This ought to be the time for the Best Thief Under Heaven to take the stage.
Wu Xinjie nodded. She already made arrangements. Her wrist flipped, and a simple token popped out.
