Chapter 138 Is this considered a battleground?
The aroma of food filled the room. Five beasts sat around the dining table, creating a strange atmosphere.
Feifei fidgeted in the chair, feeling a chill run down her spine from the occasional glances Tianlu Bixie cast at her.
These two insist on inviting me to stay for dinner; they probably want to kill me.
"I'm done eating."
Yue Tian put down her chopsticks, got up, and quickly went into the bedroom.
Seeing this, Bai Jie quickly finished his meal in a few bites and followed him inside.
At this moment, only three beasts remained on the table. Fei Fei swallowed hard and quietly tried to activate the "Relief from Worry" skill.
A strange wave spread out, making people forget their troubles and find peace of mind.
Tianlu Bixie's gaze softened slightly, but then turned hostile again in the next second, clearly indicating that he had realized he was being affected.
Seeing this, Fei Fei calmly put down her chopsticks and said seriously.
"I have to go now, I haven't put away the laundry yet."
After she finished speaking, she jumped off the chair and walked towards the door.
A few seconds later...
"Boom!"
Feifei was cornered against the wall by two dark figures. With her back against the wall, she cried out, on the verge of tears.
"My lords, what did I do wrong? I'll correct it right now!"
Tianlu said with a gloomy face.
"So you want to kidnap Bai Jie?"
A cold sweat slid down Fei Fei's forehead.
So this is how it got exposed? How did it get exposed? Never mind, that's not important. What's important now is whether these two brother-obsessed fools will tear me apart?
"No, no, that was just a joke."
Feifei chuckled dryly.
"Then why do you still call Bai Jie your wife, and why do you bully him when we're not around?"
Tianlu took a step closer.
Feifei was instantly drenched in sweat.
Why did they find out about my raid? Bai Jie shouldn't have brought this up on his own.
"Tianlu, stop wasting words with her and just attack."
Bixie coldly said.
Upon hearing this, Fei Fei's legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground, shouting in a prostrate position.
"Gentlemen, have mercy! Calling him 'wife' was just a joke, and there's no question of bullying him. Bai Jie just likes it this way."
"Besides, with both of you here, how could I possibly lure him away?"
"And I really ship your pairing too, the incestuous and pseudo-incestuous stuff is so great to ship!"
Blah blah blah, Feifei kept going, explaining everything about herself and Baijie, even mentioning that Baijie had asked her for the doujinshi.
Tianlu Bixie was instead stumped, the sheer volume of information overwhelming them and leaving them bewildered.
At noon, due to the limited time, Xiaoze could only say so much, but now Feifei is revealing one bombshell after another, shocking his two brotherly brothers.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom,
Bai Jie took a deep breath, raised his paw, and placed it on Yue Tian's shoulder before asking.
"Yue Tian, tell me the truth, how much do you know?"
"This, this..."
Yue Tian's eyes darted around, and her voice was full of guilt.
"There are quite a few... For example, you and Fei Fei... For example, your relationship with the boss and the second-in-command... And for example..."
Yue Tian's voice trailed off. He glanced up furtively and saw Bai Jie staring at him with indifferent eyes.
Yue Tian shuddered and quickly said.
"Don't worry, Third Master, I'll keep these things to myself and never tell anyone, and I won't hold a prejudice against you because of them."
Bai Jie didn't speak, responding with deep silence.
Yue Tian instinctively tucked his tail between his legs, a little scared. But then, quick thinking, he raised his paw and barked loudly.
"Third Master, I swear to God, I will never tell anyone about these things. If I break this promise, may I be struck by lightning!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Tian suddenly felt himself locked in by a vast aura, and a realization dawned on him.
The oath between Heaven and Earth is hereby made.
"I lost it!"
Yue Tian was so shocked that he cursed out loud. He had just rambled on a bit, how did it become a vow to heaven and earth? Did the Third Master really have this ability?
"W-what's wrong?"
Bai Jie was startled by Yue Tian's sudden outburst, which even lessened the shame that had almost made him want to bang his head against the wall.
Yue Tian didn't answer, but instead grabbed Bai Jie's hand and looked at him with admiration.
"Hey, Third Master, you like to cuddle and hug, right? Actually, I can do that too."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jie's eyes widened, then he recoiled as if electrocuted, pulling back his claws and staggering backward. Trembling, he pointed at Yue Tian and questioned him.
"What...what do you want to do?!"
"Oh no, Third Master, it's not what you think. Let me explain."
Yue Tian snapped out of his daze and hurriedly took two steps forward, brandishing his claws, trying to explain. However, this action startled Bai Jie so much that he retreated abruptly and leaned against the wall.
"Don't come any closer! You're suspicious, you're definitely suspicious!"
Helpless, Yue Tian could only stand awkwardly in place.
"It's not what you think, Third Master."
dusk is approaching,
Half the sun hid below the horizon, and the remaining sunlight stained the sky red.
A cold wind blew, and the door of the Pixiu's house slammed open. Feifei dashed out and disappeared into the forest.
With his explosive revelations and his unconventional tactics of helping Tianlu ward off evil and devising strategies to win over Baijie, he has achieved remarkable success.
She successfully confused the two Pixiu and escaped.
"boom!"
The door snapped shut. But before it could close completely, it was flung open again by a red and a blue figure rushing out.
"Oh no! She got away!"
He looked around but there was no one there. Tianlu stomped his foot in anger.
Bixie tugged at him and said.
"Alright, Tianlu, let's go back and check on Baijie's condition first."
Tianlu grunted twice, glanced in the direction of the mountains and forests, and then followed them into the house.
The two Pixiu arrived at the bedroom, where a noisy commotion was coming from inside. Bixie raised its claw and pushed open the door.
"Third Master, let me explain! I blurted that out without thinking; that wasn't what I meant!"
"What else could it mean? Let me go?"
As Yue Tian and Bai Jie were arguing, the bedroom door suddenly opened. They instinctively looked over and met Tian Lu Bi Xie's gaze.
The worst thing was when the air suddenly went quiet. Yue Tian looked down at his hand that was still gripping Bai Jie's arm and suddenly felt like his life was over.
"what are you doing?"
Bixie narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint in them.
Yue Tian trembled violently and hurriedly withdrew his claws, chuckling awkwardly.
"It's alright, boss. It's just that the third leader misunderstood. I'm explaining."
Bixie didn't speak, but stared silently.
"The three of you are chatting, I'll be going now."
Yue Tian mustered her courage and dragged her slightly trembling legs toward the door.
As he passed by Tianlu Bixie, his heart pounded with fear, terrified that he would be torn to pieces at any moment.
Only after safely exiting the gate did Yue finally take off running and disappear into the mountain path.
At this moment, only three Pixiu remained in the bedroom. Bai Jie lowered his head and remained silent. Tian Lu and Bi Xie exchanged a glance and stepped forward to stick to him from the left and right.
"Hehehe, so Bai Jie likes us that much?"
Tianlu wagged its tail, its voice filled with joy.
Bai Jie was completely taken aback by how things had turned out. He looked up abruptly, his expression one of astonishment.
"It's alright, Bai Jie. Tian Lu had the same idea before, but you shouldn't say it out loud, or you'll be struck down by the Heavenly Dao."
Bixie instructed.
"Yes, yes, the Heavenly Dao is such a stingy old man."
Tianlu nodded repeatedly, but as soon as he said this, a terrifying aura locked onto him.
Tianlu immediately shrank his neck and shut his mouth.
Bai Jie looked around blankly.
This plot is 100% wrong. Could it be that the red thread of fate and Cupid's arrow haven't actually been untied yet? Or is there some kind of aftereffect between them?
After hesitating for a while, Bai Jie finally couldn't help but reveal what was on his mind.
"Um...don't you guys have any strange feelings?"
...What strange feeling?
To ward off evil spirits and suspicion.
"Isn't it a good thing that Baijie relies on us?"
Tianlu also looked puzzled.
Bai Jie remained silent.
Okay, let's forget that neither of the brothers had any concept of romance and had been single for tens of thousands of years. If it weren't for the intervention of fate, they would have almost turned their brotherly relationship into a romantic one.
"Oh, by the way, Bai Jie, who do you like more?"
Tianlu asked out of curiosity.
Bai Jie's body suddenly stiffened. He felt Bi Xie's probing gaze and his whole body went cold.
What an incredibly difficult and potentially fatal question! Can I say I want them all?
The morning sunlight streamed through the window, filling the room with tranquility.
When the First Qilin opened its eyes, the first thing it saw was the sleeping face of the Jade Qilin.
He shrank back, reaching out his claws to hug his wife and the few Qilin eggs between them.
The cold winter mornings always make animals reluctant to get out of bed, preferring to stay snuggled in their warm blankets.
But I had arranged to travel to the film set with Fenghuang today.
Shi Qilin lingered in bed for a while longer, only getting up after Yu Qilin woke up and said a few coquettish words.
After a quick wash and breakfast, and some time spent cuddling with his wife, Shi Qilin finally left with five Qilin eggs.
He flew on the clouds to the place he had agreed upon with the Phoenix, where he saw two large red birds that looked alike.
"Hey Phoenix, who's this? Your brother?"
The Qilin jumped off the auspicious cloud and asked curiously.
"He's a phoenix, a mythical beast from abroad. We went to the film set together."
"This is the First Qilin, my old friend."
Phoenix gave a brief introduction to both parties.
After exchanging a few words with the phoenix to establish a acquaintance, the three beasts set off for the film set.
The distance from Kyoto to the Saiunkoku Mountains is quite far. Shikirin estimated that at his current pace, he would arrive around the afternoon.
