When An Ruojun found her sister, the latter was chatting cheerfully with the person she least wanted to see.
“Sister,” An Ruoxi said.
An Ruoxi turned her head, watching An Ruojun walk over slowly.
A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
The last time, she had unexpectedly run into her sister outside Junior Brother Mo’s room.
This time, her sister had barged into his room without permission again.
Looking at her sister’s calm expression, An Ruojun’s heart sank.
In the past, her sister always had a cold and indifferent demeanor.
But since meeting this brat, she had changed significantly — it could even be said she was a completely different person.
“Eldest Senior Sister, is there something you need?”
Mo Huaiyu did not really want to face An Ruojun right now.
After all, his relationship with Ruoxi deeply dissatisfied her, and the way she looked at him made it seem like she wanted to eat him alive.
An Ruojun calmed her emotions and said, “Ruoxi, I went to find you just now, but I found you weren’t there…”
“Sister, I plan to stay with Junior Brother Mo during this period. If you look for me in the future, you can come directly to his room.”
An Ruoxi’s clear eyes shifted, her gaze landing on the young man’s handsome and delicate face.
Unknowingly, a hint of tenderness surfaced in her expression.
An Ruojun caught this emotion, and the ominous premonition in her heart intensified once more.
‘Wait, did Ruoxi really fall for him!?’
Suddenly, a terrifying thought occurred to her.
‘If I really let Ruoxi stay with this brat, what if things end up like those stories where they’re forced to get married because of a pregnancy…’
“In that case, as the Captain, I am also responsible for the lives of my teammates. I will stay here as well.”
An Ruojun sat down beside her sister, physically blocking the brat from attempting to get any closer.
“What!?”
Mo Huaiyu was stunned when he heard this.
How… how did this evolve into them all living together!?
Reasonably speaking, being able to live under the same roof as both the former and current Hundred Flowers Fairy should be a blessing earned from eight lifetimes of cultivation.
However, Mo Huaiyu felt this was more like the misfortune of eight lifetimes of cultivation, especially with the way An Ruojun was glaring at him with a murderous intent.
“Eldest Senior Sister, if you live with me, I’m afraid there will be some gossip…”
Before Mo Huaiyu could finish, An Ruojun interrupted him.
“You don’t need to worry about that, Junior Brother Mo. As your Eldest Senior Sister, I have long since stopped caring about my reputation.”
If An Ruojun really cared about her reputation, she wouldn’t have tarnished the title of the Hundred Flowers Fairy.
“Sister, I am enough to protect Junior Brother Mo,” An Ruoxi said calmly.
However, her small fists tightened slightly against her skirt.
Usually indifferent to everything, she somehow did not want her sister to interfere this time.
To be precise, she didn’t want another person joining them when she was alone in this room with Junior Brother Mo.
“Ruoxi, as the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. With only one person, it is difficult to be 100% sure of this bra… Junior Brother Mo’s safety. With your sister here, there is an extra layer of protection!”
An Ruojun spoke with high-sounding words, appearing like a good Captain who truly cared for her teammate.
Of course, this would be more believable if one ignored the fierce glare she had just directed at Mo Huaiyu.
Mo Huaiyu could see that the two beauties were currently at odds, so he spoke up to break the tension. “Speaking of which, did Eldest Senior Sister have something important to discuss with Sister Ruoxi?”
They were sisters, after all.
If they turned against each other because of him, Mo Huaiyu would feel a bit guilty.
‘Wait! Fighting over a man… shouldn’t this plot involve brothers fighting over a beauty!?’
‘Oh no, I couldn’t have picked up the wrong script, could I? Did I accidentally grab a “Great Heroine” script from next door?’
Hearing Mo Huaiyu’s question, An Ruojun remembered that she did indeed have important matters to discuss with her sister.
It was all this brat’s fault; her thoughts always became a mess whenever she saw him.
“Ruoxi, I have already sent a message to the sect. It is expected that by tomorrow, Peak Master Ming will arrive with a group of Elders to thoroughly investigate Tianshui City.”
If it were just simple remnants of the Demon Cult, it wouldn’t be necessary to alert a Peak Master of the Yuling Sect.
However, Demon Cult remnants who dared to brazenly attack a Core Disciple of the Yuling Sect were no ordinary threat. They had to strike back hard!
Furthermore, An Ruojun had a faint feeling that Tianshui City was not as simple as it seemed.
Mo Huaiyu nodded.
It seemed An Ruojun was quite reliable; she had messaged the sect so quickly instead of investigating on her own or waiting for the results from the City Lord’s Mansion.
However, since his Master was arriving tomorrow, he had to find the treasure vault tonight.
Otherwise, his secret little actions would definitely not escape the notice of those powerhouses tomorrow.
—
The sky gradually darkened.
An Ruojun and An Ruoxi changed into black clothing, their beautiful faces covered by black veils.
This not only concealed their figures but their identities as well.
Mo Huaiyu was also dressed in black.
When searching for a treasure vault, one definitely had to hide their identity.
Otherwise, once recognized, word would quickly spread about who had obtained a great treasure.
If it were a beautiful older sister coming for him, he would be tactful enough to lie down obediently and cooperate.
But if it were some old man, then sorry, his greatest fear was a “brother” stabbing him in the back.
The dark, windy night was the perfect time to seize treasure.
During the Dao-Asking Convention, Mo Huaiyu had done this often — targeting some pampered young master and then finding the right moment to knock them out with a single strike. He never missed.
Relying on the map, the three of them soon found the marked location.
According to the Treasure Map, the entrance was hidden by a mechanical trap.
Just as Mo Huaiyu was looking at how to disable the mechanism —
*BOOM!*
With a loud explosion, the giant rock in front of them shattered, revealing a cave entrance.
“Done!”
An Ruojun said as she brushed her hands.
Puzzle? What puzzle?
Mo Huaiyu was startled by the loud noise.
He had been just about to figure out how to disarm the trap.
Before he could snap out of it, An Ruojun’s figure had already walked inside.
“Eldest Senior Sister, wait for me!”
Mo Huaiyu realized what was happening and immediately trotted into the cave.
He looked extremely excited, as if he could already see a wealthy cultivation life beckoning him.
Seeing Mo Huaiyu enter, An Ruoxi followed closely behind.
Once Mo Huaiyu reached the depths of the cave, only one word could describe it — brilliant!
The sparkling light of the Spirit Stones nearly blinded him.
However, before Mo Huaiyu could celebrate for long, An Ruojun crossed her arms, accentuating her towering peaks.
“Listen up, brat. Let’s get one thing straight. I want a seventy-thirty split.”
Hearing this requirement, Mo Huaiyu looked at the Spirit Stones covering the ground with great reluctance and gritted his teeth.
“Fine. Eldest Senior Sister, feel free to take 30%.”
After saying that, he clutched his chest.
It hurt too much. His precious Spirit Stones!
However, in the next moment, An Ruojun gently shook her head, her red lips curling into a playful arc.
“I didn’t mean I take 30%. I meant that *you* get 30%.”
