Chapter 524 – Aiko Teasing and Yueying’s Grandpa
Captivating Aiko followed Ah Cy around. She was just savouring her ability to not be suppressed by her Sisters.
They moved from one Peak to another, while Ah Cy was shielding Aiko from prying eyes.
Ah Cy had to agree that this Aiko captivated the heart, unlike the cool Aiko or energetic Aiko, this one would break the most hearts.
It was a good idea that Aiko proposed, since now Ah Cy didn't need to show Aiko around and cause chaos due to her beauty.
Overall, a good strategy.
...
Arriving at the Hidden Peak, the construction had already started.
Naturally, Ah Cy sprung to action, but she still kept an eye out for Aiko.
Her flushed cheeks and captivating appearance would definitely charm anyone without a sufficient Cultivation Stage.
Aiko walked around, observing everything closely, so much so that even Ah Cy believed that Aiko studied this.
And she was right. Captivating Aiko was 'recording' everything for Moon Aiko to go through.
Her [Perfect Memory] might've been adjusted, but that didn't mean its effects changed.
Ah Cy guided them to make new plans. Since she didn't need wider doors or anything for her body, she could settle for a normal courtyard.
This also allowed her to have a bigger and more complex garden.
Aiko observed as they built it piece by piece. Making mental notes during each phase.
Some things felt out of place, but she didn't really care about them. It was Moon Aiko's job to figure those kinds of things out.
Shaking her head, she slowly lost interest as they were putting on the roofs. This courtyard was completely out of wood, with some rock pieces for the kitchen and other parts.
However, the garden was not as impressive as before.
"It takes around 100 years for the garden to properly bloom." Ah Cy noticed Aiko's strange gaze, so she explained what was happening in front of her.
"That long?" Even Captivating Aiko felt something odd about it, but she couldn't say anything about it as she had limited information.
"It's not easy to care for these flowers." Ah Cy sighed. Usually, once one would breakthrough, they would go into the wasteland to pass it.
It was safer and less destructive for everyone, especially if they had expensive abodes.
Fortunately, she didn't like cave abodes; otherwise, there would be no mountain left.
Aiko shook her head. She didn't believe that at all, but she also didn't have enough experience to refute it.
Moving out of this place, Aiko was more curious about what Li Xiu was up to.
It's been a while since Aiko visited her.
...
Captivating Aiko arrived at a familiar location. It was the same place that Li Xiu used as her courtyard.
However, a few changes occurred.
There was a special contraption around the lewd tree that would scratch its bark at given intervals, making it release Qi automatically.
The bark scratcher was rigged to a few ropes, moved through pulleys and into a hollow bamboo shoot.
That bamboo shoot would fill up with water, making the contraption rise up, and when it emptied, the contraption would crash down, scratching the tree.
Aiko had to agree that this was quite a nice contraption, but it could be done more easily and better.
She moved into the inner courtyard, but Li Xiu was nowhere to be seen.
Captivating Aiko moved into her room and looked through her clothing to see if there was anything else that would fit her. She would reimburse Li Xiu later, but just in case her clothing got ripped up, she needed a spare that wouldn't bother her.
However, the 'dimensions' didn't quite fit, so Aiko had to give up.
Shaking her head gently, Aiko moved her body around a bit. She was trying to get used to the arousing sensation caressing her body, but it was simply impossible.
Just then, Li Xiu returned completely black and with a few injuries.
"A-Aiko?!" As if she didn't expect Aiko to be here, she panicked.
"I will have a bath!" Li Xiu immediately stormed out and towards her bath.
'Right, bath.' Captivating Aiko should wash her body, too.
She moved slowly towards the bath, where Li Xiu stormed to.
-----
'How is that possible!? Aiko was supposed to be away!' Bubbles rose from her mouth as half of her face was submerged in the water.
'But she looked even better than before, what happened?! I thought Master was the only one who had advanced a Cultivation Stage?!' Li Xiu was confused, but... 'S-She didn't wear any underwear!' Obviously, that image was the most important for Li Xiu as she loved the new and 'bad' look that Aiko was giving.
'Master said Aiko looked 'badder' than before, but I didn't think it would be 'that' bad!' Li Xiu squealed when the doors suddenly opened.
"Kyyyaaaa!" Li Xiu immediately saw Aiko undressing and going into her bath.
"What is it?" Captivating Aiko tilted her head. They were both girls, so this much was fine, right?
Li Xiu covered her eyes, but she still left some 'holes' so that she could peek.
"Why are you covering your eyes when you are still staring at me?" Captivating Aiko found Li Xiu quite amusing, so she didn't mind much, but why would she be like that when she'd already seen Sun Aiko naked?
"Oh~?" Aiko smirked. "Maybe you want me to ride you again~?" Teasing Li Xiu.
"Absolutely not!" Li Xiu gulped loudly, imagining this kind of Aiko on top of her.
She shook her head a few times, but noticed Aiko was getting closer.
"N-no!" Li Xiu stuttered as she watched Aiko's captivating body sway to the sides.
[You are under the effect of poison and charm.]
'Hm?' Li Xiu blinked.
[The low-level poison was neutralised by other poisons, making this bath beneficial in cleansing the marrow. However, it might introduce some unforeseen pain.]
'???' Li Xiu blinked and rubbed her eyes a few times.
-----
Captivating Aiko paused her body when she saw that Li Xiu didn't pay any attention to her.
"System?" Aiko asked carefully.
"Yeah, something about poisons and charms." Li Xiu nodded. She didn't really mind if Aiko used something like that on her, as it would at least give her an excuse to touch and savour her body.
Aiko came close, her incredibly soft pillows pressing against Li Xiu's arm.
Li Xiu's Soul almost jumped out of her body, but she kept it together by watching the system messages.
"How about this?" Captivating Aiko tried to release non-harmful poisons into the water through her energy circulation.
"Oh! The effects are even better!" Li Xiu marvelled at her new bath, as this one wouldn't cause any pain.
Aiko slightly pouted at being ignored in favour of the system.
*Nom*
"Ah, Aiko!" Li Xiu jumped when Aiko playfully bit her shoulder.
"Pay more attention to me!" Captivating Aiko pouted.
"I can't!" Li Xiu immediately looked away.
"Then I will mount you!" Captivating Aiko needed some sort of reference on how hot she was.
"No!" Li Xiu immediately ran away.
"Tsk." Captivating Aiko clicked her tongue and sat down, glaring at her uncooperative spirit!
-----
"Princess?" Yanyan looked around, and they were almost at their destination.
"Just call me by my name..." Yueying sighed. After Yanyan noticed that she had a new heart, she was more wary about her words.
...
They finally arrived at a lonely mountain.
"Yueying!" A worried-looking elderly person immediately rushed to her. "Have you eaten well? Are you hurt? Do you need any snacks?"
As expected, he was the usual, worried grandpa. When you saw him like this, you wouldn't believe he was able to easily obliterate a whole continent.
"And how was your stay at- at... at...?" Just then, the grandpa noticed something weird. "You already have a heart...?" His eyes almost rolled back into his head.
"How?!" The grandpa shook Yueying, trying to figure it out.
"I'm happy to see you too, Grandpa." Yueying was startled by this warm welcome.
"But I'm sure I was nursing your heart..." The grandpa's eyes spun.
"You are." That was also her heart.
Grandpa slightly staggered. "Alright, let's go inside first." His mind was confused, but this was not the time to dilly-dally! He didn't even know if he could return that heart!
...
"Sit, sit." Grandpa gestured towards them and went to get some snacks.
The insides were quite cosy, filled with ponds and flowers, making it feel ethereal.
Yueying's grandpa always had a good taste in aesthetics, so she would definitely like to learn from him.
He returned with a few baskets of snacks and placed them on the table.
"So, how did that happen?" Grandpa said cautiously, but it was obvious he wanted to know just how.
"A 'friend' fed me some delicious meat, and it turned out like this..." Yueying went slightly more into detail while she had some snacks.
".........." Grandpa was questioning his life, but at least she looked quite healthy and had quite an appetite.
"It's good you are doing well..." Grandpa was happy that Yueying had an appetite, given her missing heart.
"How did the meat taste?" Grandpa paused. There was just something odd about this meat.
"It was so delicious, I can't forget that meat." Yueying almost salivated, imagining that meat again.
"..." Grandpa stiffened and went somewhere.
"Was it like this?" He opened a small sealed box, and an intricate and delicious smell spread.
"No." Yueying shook her head, and Grandpa sighed in relief. "It smelled even more delicious."
The grandpa fainted on the spot.
"G-grandpa?!" Yueying immediately went next to her Grandpa.
"P-please don't tell me you ate too much of it...?" He was without energy and vacant eyes.
"..." Yueying couldn't answer that, since she was fed until a new heart grew...
His eyes rolled back, and he completely fainted.
...
"Are you alright, grandpa?" Yueying was worried about him.
"How do you feel about the son of the Basalt Dragons?" Grandpa suddenly asked.
"I saw him only once, but he was ugly." Yueying shook her head and said honestly.
"How about the Sky Dragons?" Grandpa still held some hope.
"Too skinny." However, Yueying shook her head again.
"..." Grandpa cried. "We are fucked. If those guys realise you ate their meat, we are fucked."
"???" Yueying was confused. "Who?"
"It's a very ancient race. They were here before everyone else." Grandpa said briefly. "They say that their peaches can raise the dead, even when their Karma would doom them and that their meat could grow something that shouldn't exist..."
"..." Yueying wondered if that was true.
"Do not say anything about your two hearts!" Grandpa immediately stood up. "I will look for techniques that can even fool Dragons! You are not allowed to leave until you Master them and consider the other Young Masters and try to pick a fiancé!" Grandpa immediately sprang back to life and ran around.
"But I don't like them!" Yueying yelled.
"Doesn't matter, we won't live long anyway! They are only to buy time!" Grandpa ran around, looking through the Jade Slips that would help her.
"But I already have someone I like!" Yueying suddenly confessed.
There was a sharp sound coming from outside the room as someone tried to stop themselves, but still crashed into something.
The loud noise alerted them, and they went outside.
Grandpa was under the rubble of Jade Slip, staring in disbelief. "You already like someone?!" He couldn't believe that his picky niece was already into someone!
He naturally fainted again...
