Chapter 456 - 437: Breaking the Celestial Palace!_3

But, Brother Qin Yu’s lovely wives, aren’t these titles a bit chaotic?

A little sister-in-law, isn’t that the wife’s younger sister?

Wouldn’t the older sister get angry?

Also, a little senior sister and a master?

How could such identities... cry together on the same pole?

"Jiujiu, are you okay?"

Little Ling’Er looked at Tu Jiujiu with clear and beautiful eyes full of concern.

"Huh?"

Tu Jiujiu let out a small cry, only to realize something seemed off about her body as she listened to those sounds.

Her cheeks were burning hot, her breathing was a bit disordered, and the high-standing collar of her clothes was constantly heaving...

That feeling was indescribable in words, something she had never experienced before.

"I... I don’t know either."

Tu Jiujiu was a bit flustered.

What’s wrong with me, why am I like this?

"Did you eavesdrop on those sounds?"

Little Ling’Er lightly pursed her lips and asked.

"I, I..."

Tu Jiujiu’s already blushing little face was like a ripe red apple, so tender and juicy-looking that one couldn’t resist taking a bite.

Seeing her like this, Little Ling’Er immediately understood.

She remembered hearing cries from Lin Shuishui and the others before in the cottage by the waterfall, and at that time, something seemed off with her body too.

"Ling’Er, are they exchanging tails?"

Tu Jiujiu asked curiously.

After spending a day together, she could see that Qin Yu adored his lovely wives, especially caring for Little Ling’Er.

In half a day, Little Ling’Er could almost always stay by Qin Yu’s side, holding that hand that made her feel so comfortable.

If the Empress Dowager weren’t always keeping a close eye on her, Tu Jiujiu would also want to be like Little Ling’Er.

"Exchanging tails?"

Little Ling’Er was stunned, not quite understanding what that meant, but having been poisoned enough, she already knew what those were about. Thinking of them made her shyly lower her little head.

"Ling’Er, do you know? Tell me!"

Seeing her like this, Tu Jiujiu’s beautiful eyes sparkled with curiosity and eagerness to know.

"I, I..."

Little Ling’Er was no longer such an innocent girl. Thinking of Lin Shuishui and Zhao Mengli’s teachings ignited ripples in her heart, but she just couldn’t say it out loud.

"Haven’t you exchanged tails with Brother Qin Yu yet?"

Tu Jiujiu asked in some confusion.

Brother Qin Yu obviously adores Little Ling’Er so much, how could it not have happened?

It’s really strange.

Could it be because he doesn’t like her?

"I haven’t."

Little Ling’Er’s voice was soft, sounding slightly empty, with an unmistakable trace of disappointment.

"Why?"

Tu Jiujiu, full of puzzlement, gently held Little Ling’Er’s hand.

"Huh, your body doesn’t seem quite right."

The next moment, Tu Jiujiu’s expression turned serious. She clearly felt that Little Ling’Er, who seemed to have no cultivation aura, actually had two very distinct powers of Dao Rhyme inside her body.

"I’m not strange."

Little Ling’Er misunderstood the little fox’s meaning, pulled back her hand with a face full of grievance: "Brother Qin Yu said I still have to wait at least two more years."

"Two years?"

Tu Jiujiu pondered briefly, suddenly her beautiful eyes shone with astonishing brightness: "I’m exactly two years older than you, so does that mean I can?"

Such a dangerous thought, who knows how anxious the Beauty Clan Leader would become if she knew, but it’s certain that she wouldn’t dare let her out again in the future.

"Huh?"

Little Ling’Er was stunned, apparently shocked by her words.

Why is she more straightforward than Lin Shuishui?

Little Ling’Er looked at herself and then at Tu Jiujiu.

It seems that she is indeed older than me!

But, she only met Brother Qin Yu today.

"You can’t!"

Little Ling’Er firmly said.

"But you said it yourself, two years... why can’t I?"

Tu Jiujiu was obviously a bit dissatisfied.

"You’re not Brother Qin Yu’s wife, of course, you can’t."

After some thought, Little Ling’Er said seriously.

"To exchange tails, you have to be a wife?"

Tu Jiujiu blinked her big eyes.

That seems to make sense, this is like the Qingqiu Fox Race too.

Only by becoming each other’s partners can they exchange tails.

"What about you? Are you Brother Qin Yu’s wife?"

Tu Jiujiu asked curiously.

Little Ling’Er was momentarily stunned. During this short period, Qin Yu’s companionship was omnipresent. Since that day when she opened her heart, their relationship had deepened further.

Qin Yu could endlessly embrace everything about her, and she got used to the many intimate behaviors, like snuggling in his arms, greedily inhaling that scent belonging to Qin Yu.

To be strict, she couldn’t be considered Brother Qin Yu’s wife yet. To marry Brother Qin Yu, she must speak to her sister, the Emperor.

But, would her sister agree?

"What’s wrong with you?"

Tu Jiujiu didn’t quite understand, is this question really hard to answer?

"Nothing, I’ll go rest first."

Little Ling’Er dimly looked away, and walked to her room on her own.

In the past, she would sit in the little courtyard, waiting for Brother Qin Yu to finish cultivating and then accompany her, snuggling comfortably in his arms, quietly admiring the night sky’s beauty.

After lying on the bed, Little Ling’Er tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and kept recalling Tu Jiujiu’s words.

For the first time in her heart, a strong desire surged.

She wanted to become Brother Qin Yu’s Dao Companion.

"Ling’Er is so strange."

Seeing Little Ling’Er return to her room, Tu Jiujiu thought for a moment and didn’t disturb her, instead continued sitting by the waterfall.

Soon, some strange and peculiar sounds entered her ears again.
