Gu Baizhi watched Zhou Qianqian's hurried escape and felt a little strange, but she didn't think much of it. She probably assumed she was just in a hurry.
Gu Baizhi re-entered the restaurant and returned to the room she had stayed in before.
As soon as she opened the door, Xiao Yin hugged her tightly. She bent down and stroked Xiao Yin's head. Xiao Yin snuggled against Gu Baizhi's chest like a kitten, feeling comfortable.
"Alright, little clingy cat, there's something I want to ask you."
What is an older sister?
"Xiao Yin, do you want to cultivate and embark on the path of a cultivator?"
"If I become a cultivator, can I stay with my sister forever?"
"Little clingy kitten, you just want to be with your sister that much."
"Um…"
Xiao Yin whispered something, then nestled her head into Gu Baizhi's arms.
Gu Baizhi understood Xiaoyin's thoughts, but she didn't plan to tell Xiaoyin about what happened outside the tavern. After all, the price she quoted wasn't low, and Tianjian Sect might not necessarily meet her demands.
After hugging Xiaoyin for a while, Gu Baizhi felt it was enough and let go of Xiaoyin.
"Sister is going to take a bath, so let's not hug her for now."
"Okay, sure..."
Hearing Xiao Yin's reply, Gu Baizhi went to the bathroom to take a bath, feeling satisfied. The bathroom was a square bathtub of moderate size, with hot water already prepared in advance. In theory, she could finish quickly by simply taking off her clothes and bathing for a while, but Gu Baizhi hesitated at this moment.
"Never mind, it's my own body after all."
"It would be very immoral to transmigrate into someone else's body. But this is my own body after all. I'll take the plunge."
Gu Baizhi took off her outer clothes, then her undergarments, but when she got to her bodice, she hesitated again.
Gu Baizhi's face and cheeks were flushed. Should she take it off? But she was still so shy. She couldn't possibly wash herself wearing only her undergarment…
She closed her eyes, slowly took off her bodice, and soaked in the water for a while with her eyes closed.
She savored this hard-won moment, the time the water touched her skin. Later, she relaxed, though she still kept her eyes closed. She scooped up the bathwater with her hands and gently sprinkled it on her skin.
However, Gu Baizhi still couldn't accept touching her skin directly, so she could only use this method for a simple bath.
While Gu Baizhi was concentrating on taking a bath, a pair of eyes were staring intently at her. Although only her back could be seen, the person staring at her was still completely mesmerized.
"My sister is so beautiful, I want her so badly..."
A short while later, Gu Baizhi finished her bath. She wrapped her upper body in a towel, pressing it tightly against her chest with her hands. That gaze then disappeared.
Gu Baizhi, just like before, put on her bodice and undergarments with her eyes closed. She didn't wear an outer garment; after all, when sleeping, one should be comfortable. She figured she'd never be shy as long as she didn't see herself. That's what she thought.
Gu Baizhi pushed open the bathroom door and saw Xiao Yin still sitting on the chair.
"Xiaoyin, go in and wash up."
Gu Baizhi greeted her, wiping her hair with a towel as she spoke.
"OK…"
After saying that, she went into the bathroom.
"Something seems off about Xiaoyin."
But Gu Baizhi didn't pay any attention. What she didn't know was that Xiao Yin not only spied on her while she was bathing, but also saw her wearing her undergarments and bodice.
Gu Baizhi wore a plain light red bodice, but her undergarment was made of thin gauze, only covering her upper body, which resulted in her long, jade-like legs being completely exposed. Xiao Yin stared intently, but was also very shy. After all, who wouldn't be captivated by Gu Baizhi's perfect figure? That's why Xiao Yin hurriedly ran away.
Even Xiaoyin, who was bathing, couldn't stay still. The bath was filled with the scent of the Holy Body of Ten Thousand Fragrances and its unique aroma, which completely captivated her.
Almost half an hour had passed, and Xiao Yin still hadn't come out. Gu Baizhi couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Is Xiaoyin alright? Is Xiaoyin okay?"
Gu Baizhi's words immediately brought Xiao Yin to her senses.
"It'll be ready soon, sister!"
A moment later, Xiao Yin came out, wearing a white robe. Suddenly, she threw herself into Gu Baizhi's arms.
"Little clingy cat, go to sleep." But suddenly Gu Baizhi realized a problem: there was only one bed here. Although she was now in the body of a girl, she still had the soul of a boy, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed to sleep with another girl.
"Xiaoyin, would you like to book another room?"
"No, I want to sleep with my sister. Besides, this place is fully booked these days and there are no rooms available. Sister, you're not too embarrassed to sleep with me, are you?"
This immediately put Gu Baizhi in an extremely awkward position.
"Of course not! My sister just said, would it be comfortable for two people to sleep in two beds? Since there aren't any rooms available, let's sleep together..."
Liu Yin certainly wouldn't tell Gu Baizhi that there was actually a room available, but she just wanted to sleep in the same bed with Gu Baizhi.
After saying that, Gu Baizhi and Liu Yin went to bed to rest.
"Sister wants a hug!"
"Little clingy cat, how long have you been hugging me today? Do you want more? Just one last hug, then go to sleep."
After saying that, Gu Baizhi gently hugged Xiaoyin and waited for her to fall asleep first.
Gu Baizhi's eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and finally she succumbed to sleepiness and fell asleep.
Suddenly, Xiao Yin opened her eyes. In the dim light, she gazed at Gu Baizhi's stunning sleeping face and was instantly captivated. Her hands began to wander, gently caressing Gu Baizhi's body—her hands, waist, and cheeks. She even lightly touched Gu Baizhi's full breasts.
Liu Yin buried her head in Gu Baizhi's chest again, inhaling her scent. So fragrant! It really was her sister's body, so alluring. Liu Yin glanced at Gu Baizhi's delicate, soft lips, and a wicked thought arose in her heart. Just as she was about to succeed, Gu Baizhi rolled over. But she wasn't annoyed; she believed that there would be opportunities in her future life with her sister.
She glanced again at Gu Baizhi's exquisite sleeping face, then at her sister's kitten-like sleeping posture. Liu Yin hugged Gu Baizhi's slender waist from behind, inhaling her scent as she fell asleep.
The next day, Gu Baizhi woke up at a moderate pace. She rubbed her eyes and saw Xiaoyin still sleeping beside her. Gu Baizhi didn't want to disturb her. What Gu Baizhi didn't know was that Xiaoyin had actually woken up quite early and had gently touched Gu Baizhi's body again.
Gu Baizhi got dressed and was about to go downstairs to buy breakfast for Xiaoyin when she ran into Zhou Qianqian.
"Bai Zhi, the elders have agreed to your request, but they require you to provide the sect with five Earth-rank cultivation techniques."
"No problem, as long as they agree to my request."
Zhou Qianqian couldn't believe it either. Gu Baizhi actually possessed five Earth-rank cultivation techniques. She was considered one of the top figures in the Heavenly Sword Sect, yet she had only learned a few Profound-rank techniques. She was only allowed to roughly learn a little bit of the Earth-rank techniques.
But for Gu Baizhi, Earth-rank cultivation techniques were just a drop in the ocean, and the five Heaven-rank techniques were insignificant to her. However, she discovered that the cultivation techniques used in this world consumed much more spiritual energy. The "Nine Heavens Free and Unfettered Journey" technique she used in the Prince's Mansion only required a little spiritual energy in the previous world when she was at the same Golden Core stage, but in this world, it completely depleted her spiritual energy.
But Gu Baizhi didn't care. Perhaps this world also has its own laws of nature.
"And Senior Bai Zhi, may I meet the person you said you wanted to bring along?"
"Of course, I'll take you to see her after I buy breakfast."
After saying that, Gu Baizhi went to buy breakfast.
Zhou Qianqian gazed at Gu Baizhi's retreating figure for a long while.
"What's going on? Why am I... again?"
Unbeknownst to Gu Baizhi, Xiao Yin had witnessed her conversation with Zhou Qianqian and Zhou Qianqian's gazing at Gu Baizhi. Xiao Yin looked at them with a strange expression.
"My sister can only be mine!"
