After Breaking Off the Engagement, I Started Pursuing My Master-Chapter 139 - Mother, I’m thirsty
Chapter 139: Mother, I’m thirsty
“Master.”
“Hmm?”
“Your face is red.” Jiang Huai’s eyes shimmered with a hint of haziness.
Chu Xianning fell silent for a moment, “My tolerance for alcohol seems to be worse than usual today.”
“But I always feel that Master has been treating me better and better recently.”
“Really?”
“Yes, otherwise Master probably wouldn’t be willing to let me open my acupoints. I know Master doesn’t really care whether the acupoints are opened or not, but cares more about being touched by me, right?”
Perhaps it was only when Chu Xianning was slightly tipsy that he had the courage to say such things.
“I have a clear conscience,” Chu Xianning turned her face away.
“You mustn’t overthink.”
“Huh? Does Master truly have a clear conscience?”
“You are my disciple, and it is only right for you to show filial piety to your master. Where have I failed?”
“Then shall we open the remaining two acupoints as well?”
Chu Xianning picked up her cup and expressionlessly splashed the wine onto Jiang Huai’s face.
Jiang Huai silently wiped his face with a handkerchief, his voice filled with grievance.
“I was just saying... there’s no rush to open them later.”
He looked at Chu Xianning’s now empty wine cup.
“Does Master want more?”
Chu Xianning hesitated for a moment before saying,
“Tomorrow I must deal with the drawbacks of the Flower Spirit Body... Drinking too much might cause problems.”
“It’s okay, we can drink next time. So, what exactly are the drawbacks of the Flower Spirit Body?”
“I don’t want to tell you.”
“Even if Master has a clear conscience, you still won’t say?”
Chu Xianning suddenly felt a bit choked up with anger. For some reason, she always felt like Jiang Huai knew something as if he was deliberately teasing her for fun. Could it be that Luo Yueguan had told him?
After all, Luo Yueguan was the kind of woman who loved to watch the excitement and never thought things were too big to handle.
“You don’t know?”
“I... don’t know,” Jiang Huai’s voice sounded a bit guilty.
The next second, Chu Xianning’s foot kicked hard against Jiang Huai’s leg, her voice cold.
“Scoundrel!”
Jiang Huai was taken aback, suddenly realizing that his guilt must have been detected by Chu Xianning, who could tell he was lying.
Perhaps Chu Xianning would think it was Luo Yueguan who had told him?
“I really don’t know, it’s just some guesses...”

“What are you guessing?”
“Guessing... maybe the Flower Spirit Body has something to do with the growth of flowers? Maybe there’s a cycle every month, like secreting nectar or something?”
Chu Xianning’s fingers clenched her skirt, her heart filled with shame and annoyance, but Jiang Huai continued to mutter thoughtfully.
“Like constantly sweating or drooling? It does seem quite embarrassing when you think about it.”
His words were so innocent that Chu Xianning didn’t know whether he was truly clueless or just pretending to be dumb. After a moment of silence, adhering to the principle of having a clear conscience, she said indifferently.
“Something like that.”
“What a waste,” Jiang Huai muttered softly.
Chu Xianning heard this comment and her eyebrows twitched. The next moment, she was about to pull out her Snake Bone Whip, but Jiang Huai continued.
“If I were a Flower Spirit Body too, it would be so valuable for research, could be used to make a lot of medicine.”
Jiang Huai’s push and pull was becoming more and more skilled, leaving Chu Xianning unable to find a good reason to hit him.
But then she thought, when does a master need a reason to discipline a disciple?
“Give me your hand,” Chu Xianning suddenly said.
Jiang Huai was startled but obediently stretched his hand out to Chu Xianning. The next moment, a ruler appeared in her hand, and with a smack, she hit Jiang Huai’s palm. Jiang Huai retracted his hand, pretending to be in pain, and looked at Chu Xianning with a pitiful expression.
“Why did you hit me this time?”
“I felt like it.”
“Has Master started to be unreasonable?”
“I am being unreasonable,” Chu Xianning said, lifting her chin slightly.
Seeing a hint of grievance in Jiang Huai’s eyes, she suddenly felt an indescribable joy. But the next moment, her body shivered slightly, and she instinctively closed her legs.
A cold sweat appeared on Chu Xianning’s forehead.
She thought drinking a cup wouldn’t matter, but after only half a cup, the desires she usually suppressed seemed to quietly loosen and began to backlash against her body.
These desires usually required her to spend a long time in the secret chamber under Guangxue Mountain, soothing herself with the tips of her fingers. Now her body suddenly became stiff, and she bit her lip, saying,
“You... should go to sleep.”
“Huh? But I haven’t had enough to drink.”
“Go back to your room and drink slowly.”
“But I still want to talk with Master.”
“I don’t want to talk, go back to sleep,” Chu Xianning said coldly, and Jiang Huai obediently stood up.
“Alright, then I’ll go back to my room.”
He walked a few steps, and Chu Xianning quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but then the disobedient disciple suddenly turned his head and muttered softly.
“If Master needs anything, you can call me.”
“There’s nothing,” Chu Xianning said through gritted teeth.
Jiang Huai quickly ran back to his room, and Chu Xianning slowly stood up, biting her teeth... At this moment, she hadn’t reached the secret chamber at the bottom of the mountain, and the array in the chamber wasn’t ready to be activated.
When the drawbacks of her Flower Spirit Body erupted, her spiritual energy would also become chaotic.
Therefore, she had specially engraved an array in the chamber to suppress spiritual energy, which would automatically activate for a whole day each month, absorbing spiritual energy. She would calm her body within it.
Now, whether she went to the chamber or stayed here made no difference.
Fortunately, she could feel that the backlash of desire was not too strong and was still within the range she could endure.
Chu Xianning struggled to stand and walked towards her room. But the friction between her clothes and skin as she moved made her body itch as if ants were crawling all over her.
She closed the door of her room, sat on a wooden chair, and tried to meditate, but her body couldn’t stop trembling.
Who would have thought that the usually icy fairy Chu Xianning would look like this at this moment?
Chu Xianning’s body was soon soaked with sweat, and the room was filled with the fragrance of flowers, which drifted through the window into the courtyard.
......
Jiang Huai was tossing and turning in bed.
He thought he had reached a higher realm and could remain pure-hearted while giving acupuncture to Chu Xianning. But thinking of Chu Xianning being tormented by desires, he couldn’t sleep at all.
Soon, a faint scent of flowers brushed his nose, and when he strained his ears to the limit, he seemed to faintly hear the sound of panting, like a cat in heat crying out in spring.
He couldn’t help but roll around on the bed several times, but then he realized that Chu Xianning was not happy at this moment, perhaps she was in great pain... With her pride and her cold and pure nature, she was now forced into such a state, she must be feeling extremely aggrieved in her heart.
Jiang Huai sat up and began to search his storage ring, finding a bunch of spirit medicines that calmed the mind and heart. He started refining a pill, and since it was an invasion of desires, the general direction of the spirit medicine should be correct. Jiang Huai quickly refined the pill and went to Chu Xianning’s room. After hesitating for a moment, he knocked on the door.
Inside the room, Chu Xianning almost immediately covered her mouth. She even bit her tongue, the pain almost bringing tears to her eyes. Jiang Huai’s voice came through,
“If Master isn’t sleeping well, I’ve refined a calming pill. I’ll leave it outside the door for now, I’m going back to my room. Remember to take it later, Master.”
.......
After Jiang Huai returned to his room and strained his ears, he finally didn’t hear Chu Xianning’s faint panting anymore. He quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he suddenly notice the system task that had been issued.
【Chu Xianning is currently suffering from the outbreak of desires, and it’s a great opportunity to take advantage of her vulnerability. Push open Master’s room door, and being caught in such an embarrassing state, Chu Xianning will surely be furious. But the more furious she is, the more her mind will be swayed by desires. At this moment, if you provoke Chu Xianning a little more, she might push you down to relieve her desires.】
Jiang Huai glanced at the beastly task and dragged it to the to-do list without even looking at the rewards.
If he really did that, breaking the bond of master and disciple would be the least of his worries. With Chu Xianning’s proud nature, she would surely do something extreme.
......
In the courtyard bath.
Chu Xianning’s body was completely submerged in the bath.
She had already taken the pill, and the effect of Jiang Huai’s refined pill was very good. The desires that had loosened were now calming down like a receding tide.
But the moment Jiang Huai’s footsteps sounded outside the door, she was so scared, afraid that the disobedient disciple would push the door open and come in... If he saw her in such a state, perhaps she would flee Guangxue Mountain the next day, never to be found by him again.
Although the guy was shameless, every time he seemed to grasp the measure just right, just enough to not make her turn her face.
The cool water in the pool made her feel much better. The bath was large, and many spirit flowers were planted around it. These spirit flowers were all Chu Xianning’s favorites. Jiang Huai had planted many flowers on Guangxue Mountain, carefully tending to them every day, with various spirit flowers blooming in every season, a riot of colors.
Chu Xianning suddenly had a thought, her pure white body swam around the bath like a mermaid. When she stood up at the edge of the bath, looking at the hazy reflection in the water, she looked down at her own body.
To this day, her body had never been touched by any man other than Jiang Huai.
Chu Xianning had never liked being touched, even when Luo Yueguan occasionally played with her and kneaded her body, Chu Xianning would respond coldly.
Gradually, Luo Yueguan got the message and stopped teasing her. But over the past thirteen years, it seemed her body had been touched by Jiang Huai many times. She suddenly recalled the scene when her foot was held and kneaded in Jiang Huai’s palm, and a sense of shame and annoyance rose in her heart. Chu Xianning bit her lip lightly, dressed herself, returned to her room, wrapped herself in a blanket, but her mind couldn’t help but wander.
She was suffering from insomnia again, which had been happening frequently lately.
In a half-dream state, Chu Xianning seemed to have a dream where Jiang Huai was nestled in her arms, rubbing his cheek against her chest, biting her clothes, and looking at her with his usual coquettish expression.
“Mother, I’m thirsty...”
In the dream, she seemed to really pull down her clothes, but he was relentless, continuing to say,
“I want to drink nectar... Mother is the best...”
Chu Xianning jolted awake from the nightmare. She sat up, gasping for air for a long time, and when she came to her senses, she was covered in cold sweat.
She shook her head, stretched out her hand to pat her face, got up, dressed properly, and hurried alone to the secret chamber at the bottom of the mountain.
