Bab 24: Ch 24 - How come this fox be encountered everywhere?
"Oh, you must believe me! I heard that the back mountain has been haunted recently! It's so scary!"
Yunjin stopped in front of a bamboo forest, holding Yino's arm and earnestly warning him.
Yino nodded, but his gaze was still fixated on the depths of the bamboo forest ahead.
He certainly knew that the back mountain's secret realm was full of dangers.
But Yino was a reincarnator. In his previous life, he had already unlocked all the achievements on the map of Wuji Sect. He could even recite backwards every treasure and trap in this back mountain secret realm!
For ordinary disciples, the back mountain secret realm was an adventure, but for Yino, it was as familiar as returning home.
What's so scary about ghosts?
How many health bars do wild ghosts in the mountains have? Could they be harder to beat than Gu Wanglan with ten health bars, dual forms, and a berserk mode when near death?
"Alright, it's getting late."
"Why don't we go back first? As for the other places in Wuji Sect, I'd like Sister Yunjin to show me around tomorrow."
Yino said obediently, planning his trip to the back mountain.
Yunjin felt that this young man was very modest, and she couldn't help but become shy, saying sweetly, "I'm the one who needs to learn... Even though I'm your senior, it seems I don't know as much about Wuji Sect as Brother Yino."
...
...
...
As the sky darkened. Yunjin brought Yino back to the main hall of Wuji Sect.
Yino naturally wanted to say goodbye as soon as possible and go to the back mountain alone to dig for treasures, but Yunjin held him back, saying that it wasn't dark yet, and as thanks for the Soul Return Pill, she insisted on treating Yino to a meal in the cafeteria.
The girl was so sincere and kind that Yino couldn't refuse.
So he found a spot in the corner of the cafeteria, waiting for Yunjin to order food at the counter.
In his previous life when playing the game, Yino hadn't really paid attention to Wuji Sect's cafeteria. Now experiencing it firsthand, this row of counters for ordering food really gave off a strong Chinese campus vibe.
He had nothing else to do, so he just stared blankly at Yunjin's back.
But in a moment, a group of noisy young people entered Yino's field of vision.
These disciples returning at night were all wearing new student robes similar to Yino's, obviously new students who had participated in the sect entry exam in the morning.
Yino didn't care much about new students, but the sword cultivator youth in black clothes was too eye-catching among the crowd.
The presence of the protagonist made Yino take a second look.
He figured that because Yunjin had been led away by him during the day, the protagonist, who should have been following the novice guide through the plot, now had to train and eat with the other new students.
"Isn't that Senior Sister Yunjin?"
"Oh, it really is!"
As someone mentioned it, the gazes of many disciples turned towards the back of the girl with the green hair bun.
After a brief discussion, the crowd seemed to decide to let their leader in black clothes approach her.
Chen Jianxin hesitated for a moment, but still put away his sword and walked up with enthusiasm:
"Senior Sister Yunjin?"
The girl turned around, blinking with slight confusion.
She nodded in confirmation, and Chen Jianxin immediately smiled brightly and said, "Senior Brother Gu told me about you, saying you're the new students' friend in Wuji Sect, and almost every new disciple here has received your help!"
"Oh, I see. Senior Brother Gu is really overpraising me. I'm just earning some merit points by being a guide for new students..."
Yunjin smiled shyly, while also politely greeting the many new students behind Chen Jianxin.
She had always had good relationships in Wuji Sect, but also because she wasn't good at refusing, she was often used as a free novice guide by various seniors and even elders. Almost every family's disciple who just entered would be sent to consult Yunjin.
It was nice to earn merit points, but Yunjin often couldn't keep up, and besides, Wuji Sect didn't have an official novice guide position, she was just doing it part-time.
In fact, there were many seniors like Yunjin who worked part-time as guides to earn merit points, but for some reason, only Yunjin seemed to be particularly popular in the new student circle, causing every batch of new students to greet Yunjin when they passed by.
"By the way, is Senior Sister Yunjin eating alone? We all just passed the sect entry exam this morning and still have many questions. If Sister Yunjin doesn't mind, why don't you join us!"
"Of course, this meal is on me."
Chen Jianxin said politely, and the many new students behind him nodded in succession.
Suddenly, Yunjin found herself surrounded by everyone and felt a bit of a headache. She glanced at the corner of the cafeteria, but couldn't find Yino's figure where he had been originally.
"Sister Yunjin, it's too hot, let me carry it."
Suddenly, Yino's voice came from behind Yunjin.
The girl turned to look and saw that the steaming hot pot of spicy soup she had just ordered was being carried by Yino.
The details of their conversation and eye contact made Chen Jianxin and the other new students look on curiously.
"Okay, I'll be over in a bit."
Seeing this, Yunjin nodded to Yino and then turned to explain to the new students, "I'm sorry, I've already made plans to treat Young Master He to dinner tonight. Maybe... maybe we can eat together another day!"
Her tone was slightly troubled, still not good at refusing.
But tonight she had actively invited Yino to eat, and no matter what, Yunjin couldn't stand him up at the last minute. She understood the importance of social graces and priorities.
"Young Master He..."
Chen Jianxin muttered, his gaze involuntarily turning towards the young man in white from earlier.
He didn't try to persuade her further, just nodded and thanked Yunjin, then returned to the table full of new students.
"Brother Chen, no wonder you couldn't find Sister Yunjin when you came to the main hall today! It turns out the senior sister was booked by that young master from the Grand Tutor's Mansion!"
A few junior disciples said in low voices.
Chen Jianxin sat in the middle, his innocent face showing a hint of instinctive dislike when he heard the words Grand Tutor's Mansion.
He couldn't help but look back again, raising an eyebrow and saying:
"So he's the Seventh Young Master of the Grand Tutor's Mansion you mentioned earlier."
"Yes, this young master's family background is incredibly powerful in the Great Dragon Dynasty. He didn't even need to take the sect entry exam, the Sword Leader Senior Sister personally went down the mountain to bring him!"
-Tch, selfish aristocratic family...-
Chen Jianxin clicked his tongue lightly.
Observing his expression, everyone sensed a bit of tension in the atmosphere.
The follower whispered in Chen Jianxin's ear:
"Brother Chen, although you're the chosen one, we come from common folk backgrounds. It's best not to provoke that noble young master. We can't afford to offend the Grand Tutor's Mansion!"
"Eat your food! Am I that petty?"
Getting annoyed by the gossip, Chen Jianxin suddenly slammed down his chopsticks, glaring at everyone.
No one dared to speak, obediently lowering their heads to eat.
After all, today at the sword arena, they had all been defeated by Chen Jianxin in a one-versus-many battle.
...
...
...
"Young Master He, thank you for helping me out of that situation just now."
Yunjin pulled up a stool and sat down, letting out a long sigh with her tired little face.
Across the table from her, Yino wasn't polite at all, picking up his chopsticks and eating large mouthfuls.
"Just call me Junior Brother."
He reminded her, then continued the conversation by asking, "Didn't Sister Yunjin want to talk to them?"
"That depends on my energy level! Today, Brother Yino took me on a big tour of the back mountain, and I'm already exhausted."
The girl rested her face on her hand, complaining listlessly, "Besides, with so many teenage boys, if we really sat down to eat, they would definitely go off-topic as they chatted... Please spare me!"
Now, Yunjin was no longer as polite as she had been during the day. Her little face, reddened from fatigue, showed more friendliness and authenticity.
She was actually quite down-to-earth, kind-hearted but not without complaints in her heart.
Obviously, Yunjin said this because she had similar experiences of being bothered before.
"What about me then?"
Yino looked up, curiously watching her.
Yunjin was silent for a moment, her small mouth involuntarily breaking into a smile: "Brother Yino is really joking, you know even more about Wuji Sect than me! Today, it was I who learned from you. If anything, I should be worried that Junior Brother Yino finds this senior inadequate!"
"Is that so? I don't find Senior Sister inadequate at all."
Yino nodded and continued eating, but that didn't stop him from continuing to chat with Yunjin to help her relax.
Seeing him eat so heartily, Yunjin's mood improved a bit.
"Speaking of which, as a young master from the Grand Tutor's Mansion, have you never eaten spicy hot pot before?"
"How is that possible? Do you think nobles all live in the sky?"
Yino raised an eyebrow, never dreaming that one day he would be asked such a question.
But judging from the surprised look on the girl's face, she seemed to really think so.
"I'm different from the young masters of the Grand Tutor's Mansion that people imagine. You can even not see me as a noble at all..."
"Why?"
"Because how could a real young master of the Grand Tutor's Mansion possibly be sent to Wuji Sect? Wouldn't it be better to get an immortal position in the Great Dragon Dynasty and eat imperial food?"
Yino shrugged, making himself laugh at his own words.
With this, Yunjin's originally admiring gaze suddenly couldn't hide a bit of suppressed laughter.
As if in that instant, the barrier between them had lessened even more.
"That's true. How could a real young noble possibly eat spicy hot pot with a country bumpkin like me!"
"How is eating spicy hot pot considered bumpkin-like? I love eating food with Sister Yunjin!"
Yino snorted pretentiously, righteously taking big bites of food.
Yunjin was also infected by his cheerful humor, cupping her face, as if just watching Yino eat was a very enjoyable thing: "If you like it, come to my house next time. I'll cook for you myself, guaranteed to be better than the cafeteria!"
"Really? Aren't you afraid of letting the wolf into the house?"
"Not afraid!"
Following the atmosphere, Yunjin naturally raised her little face and snorted lightly: "Actually, before you came to the main hall, Senior Sister Mo had already instructed me. She said if you do anything excessive to me, I should report to her!"
"Oh no, then you absolutely must not report me!"
"I won't~"
...
...
...
After finishing the meal, Yino directly escorted Yunjin all the way to the female cultivators' dormitory.
Although Yunjin kept declining, Yino insisted on walking her home in the night.
He wasn't really such a gentleman worried about Yunjin being harassed by new students again.
He mainly wanted to find an excuse to send Yunjin away, then go to Wuji Sect's back mountain secret realm on the way.
There was still some time before midnight, and Yino didn't plan to return to Ranmo Peak. This great opportunity in the dead of night, he had to go to the back mountain to dig up some treasures!
-Finally sent Yunjin away.-
-Now that I'm here at Wuji Sect, if I don't dig three feet deep into the Immortal Tomb of the Supreme Elder, I would have wasted all my efforts to unlock all achievements in Fallen Immortal in my previous life!-
Thinking of this, Yino couldn't help but feel confident, the corners of his lips turning upward.
But just as he entered the bamboo forest, rolling up his sleeves and preparing to dig vigorously, a familiar red alluring figure came walking along a small forest path not far away.
-Holy crap! It's that foxy woman!-
Yino cursed inwardly, instinctively looking for cover, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
-What bad luck, how can I run into her in this godforsaken place?-
