Martial Arts, the Little Master of the Ancient Tomb, Becomes Stronger When You Drink

85: Chapter 85 Sister Xiaobai”E’er, have you memorized the Mind-Cultivation Technique’s mantra?”

”Yes, I have, Martial Aunt~”

Little Dragon Girl smiled and rubbed Gongsun Lüe’s head, ”Good. In the future, when your Master isn’t around, will E’er practice the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra with Martial Aunt?”

”Okay~”

Su Xuan stepped through the air, landing on the carriage, and walked over, laughing as he approached, ”Long’er, girl, I’m back!”

”Junior Martial Uncle!”

”Master!”

Hearing Su Xuan’s voice, the two women’s eyes lit up, and they turned and flew into his embrace.

Su Xuan opened his arms, pulling both women—one older, one younger—into his embrace, ruffling their lovely hair, ”What were you two chatting about? You seem so happy?”

”Martial Aunt was teaching...” Gongsun Lüe started to answer truthfully as usual, but halfway through, noticing Little Dragon Girl’s meaningful look, she swallowed her words, ”Mart... Martial Aunt said E’er should listen to Master and not make Master angry.”

”Mmhmm.” Little Dragon Girl nodded appropriately.

Su Xuan smiled and shook his head, taking both women’s jade-like hands, ”Let’s go over. Master and the others are still waiting over there.”

”Little Eagle, watch the carriage!” Leaving these words behind, Su Xuan activated his Lightness Skill, carrying the two women as he flew towards Lin Chaoying.

Watching the departing figures of Su Xuan and the two women, Little Eagle ’disgruntledly’ turned its head away.

As if saying, ’Didn’t even get to eat much roasted meat, and still have to work every day.’

Within a few breaths, Su Xuan and the two women arrived before Lin Chaoying.

The other women, having finished dealing with their immediate matters, also gathered around.

Soon, everyone was gathered together.

A gentle smile graced Dongfang Bai’s exquisite face as she approached Lin Chaoying, linking arms with her, ”Sister Lin, why didn’t you tell Xiao Bai you were coming? Xiao Bai would have gone to pick you up!”

Lin Chaoying rolled her beautiful eyes, ”You, a great and busy Cult Leader, having you pick me up would surely delay your sect affairs, wouldn’t it?”

Anyway, she would never admit that she got so caught up playing with her little disciple on the journey that she forgot.

”Sister Lin just loves to joke, sect affairs could never be more important than Sister Lin...”

The domineering, icy, peerlessly beautiful, and inviolable Sun Moon Holy Cult Leader, Invincible East, actually took on a somewhat little-sister-like demeanor when she came to Lin Chaoying’s side.

This made Su Xuan look on with some surprise.

Was his Precious Master and Invincible East this close?

As if noticing something, Lin Chaoying lightly coughed twice, ”Ahem, since everyone is here, let me introduce you all.”

Lin Chaoying’s beautiful eyes fell on Su Xuan, her gaze unconsciously softening, ”This is my little disciple, Su Xuan. You can call him Xuan...”

Halfway through, Lin Chaoying suddenly froze, her expression changing slightly.

For a moment, Lin Chaoying didn’t know what she should have Dongfang Bai call Su Xuan.

Calling him Xuan’er wasn’t quite appropriate...

Calling him Little Xuan was too intimate, and she felt uncomfortable with that...

As if guessing what Lin Chaoying was thinking, Dongfang Bai looked at Su Xuan with some surprise, her beautiful eyes flickering, ”Then I’ll call you Little Su!”

Su Xuan’s mouth twitched, ”That’s completely unnecessary. You can just call me by my name.”

What’s with this obsession with the word ’little’? Really annoying...

”Alright, Little Su.”

Before Su Xuan could retort, Lin Chaoying suddenly laughed, ”Good, Little Su is good.”

Not too distant, yet not overly intimate. Just right! At least it sounded just right to her!

Seeing how happy his Master looked, Su Xuan swallowed the words he was about to say.

Suddenly remembering something, Su Xuan glared fiercely at Li Mochou.

Li Mochou, who had been gazing at Su Xuan with eyes full of love, was somewhat confused.

”Then I’ll call you Xiao...” Su Xuan originally intended to ’get even,’ but halfway through, he saw Lin Chaoying glaring at him fiercely with phoenix-like eyes. Su Xuan’s mouth twitched, ”...Sister Xiao Bai...”

Only then did Lin Chaoying withdraw her gaze with satisfaction, then looked at Mu Tingxue, ”This is my... ahem, my little disciple’s mother. She’s a few years older than you, so you can call her Sister Mu.”

”Sister Mu~”

”Mm~” Mu Tingxue glided gracefully to Dongfang Bai’s side, linking arms with her, ”Then I’ll call you Sister Bai.”

”Mm~”

Seeing everything proceed smoothly, Lin Chaoying nodded approvingly, then turned her gaze to Li Mochou and Little Dragon Girl, ”They are Xue’er’s disciples. You can call them Mochou and Long’er.”

”Sister Xiao Bai~”

”Sister Xiao Bai~”

Li Mochou and Little Dragon Girl also followed Su Xuan’s form of address.

Dongfang Bai nodded gently, then her gaze fell on Gongsun Lüe standing beside Su Xuan, ”And this one...”

Lin Chaoying smiled, ”This girl is Xuan’er’s disciple, Gongsun Lüe. You can call her E’er.”

”Sister Xiao Bai...”

”Thump~”

”Ouch~” Gongsun Lüe suddenly covered her fair, tender forehead, looking at Su Xuan with a pitiful expression, ”Master, why did you hit E’er? Did E’er say something wrong?”

Su Xuan glared at Gongsun Lüe with star-like eyes, ”Your Master calls her Sister Xiao Bai. If you follow suit, are you trying to defy your Master and overthrow your ancestors?”

”N... no...” Thinking Su Xuan was genuinely angry, Gongsun Lüe’s large, watery eyes gradually welled with tears, ”E’er didn’t mean to. Master says to call her whatever Master says...”

Su Xuan bullying Gongsun Lüe so openly in front of so many people was too much even for Mu Tingxue. She stepped forward, pulling Gongsun Lüe into her embrace, and glanced at Su Xuan, ”Xuan’er, don’t scare E’er. E’er is still young...”

”Hmph!” Su Xuan deliberately turned his back in feigned anger, sized up Dongfang Bai a few times, and said in a deep voice, ”Looking at the age difference, girl, from now on, you call her Granny Xiao Bai!”

Dongfang Bai: ”...”

Mu Tingxue: ”...”

Lin Chaoying: ”...”

Li Mochou: ”...”

Little Dragon Girl: ”...”

Gongsun Lüe: ”... Yes, Granny Xiao Bai~”

Seeing Gongsun Lüe actually call her that, Dongfang Bai was instantly covered in metaphorical black lines, looking at Su Xuan with utter speechlessness.

Su Xuan looked back at her without the slightest hesitation.

Dongfang Bai shook her head in extreme exasperation, muttering under her breath, ”Little brat.”

With Su Xuan’s level of skill, he heard these words perfectly clearly.

Before Su Xuan could speak again, Lin Chaoying put a stop to this farce, ”E’er, from now on, you call her Sister Xiao Bai, same as your Master.”

Seeing Su Xuan still wanted to say something, Lin Chaoying couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him, ”If we really went by seniority, shouldn’t you be calling Xue’er ’Senior Sister’? What seniority is even left in our Ancient Tomb now?”

Right! What seniority was even left in the Ancient Tomb now?!

Whether they came earlier or later, everyone’s forms of address had changed because of Su Xuan.

A perfectly proper martial sect had, because of Su Xuan, turned into a home with a male Master.

Only Su Xuan and Gongsun Lüe, Master and disciple, still somewhat resembled a proper Master-disciple pair...

Truly, life is unpredictable, like large intestines wrapped around small sausages...

If the Lin Chaoying of eighteen years ago knew it would turn out like this today, one wonders what she would think...
