Book 6: Chapter 38:2: Chen Heng’s Daught…Nothing. Part 2

Half an hour later, Xuanyuan Yiyao sashayed down the stairs, holding a camera. Meanwhile, Chen Heng trailed behind her, looking downtrodden.

To think she even brought a camera. This is too ridiculous! Chen Heng started to doubt life.

Chen Heng opened the Dimension Administrators Association’s chatting interface and muted Merlin, who had recently been unmuted, for one month. Only then did he feel better.

Chen Heng eyed the camera in Xuanyuan Yiyao’s hand, contemplating something he should not.

It would be impossible to snatch it. Don’t look at Xuanyuan Yiyao’s excellent figure. While she was busty, she cultivated physically and could smash a mountain with a fist. On the other hand, her control over energy was simply average.

At this moment, Chen Heng recalled the electromagnetic control ability he had forgotten for a while. A camera was an electronic device; as long as it used electricity…

Hence, Chen Heng extended his evil hands toward the camera.

Right after Xuanyuan Yiyao excitedly viewed the photos in the camera and was about to place the camera in her spatial storage, Chen Heng used his poor acting skills to point at the window. “Eldest Sister, why are you here?”

[TL Note: Eldest Sister here refers to his eldest female cousin. In China, there is a habit of addressing or even treating one’s cousins as though they were one’s siblings. This is likely due to China’s previous one-child policy.]

“Huh? Eldest Sister?” The most important thing was that Xuanyuan Yiyao believed him. She turned to look in the direction he pointed.

“I don’t see Eldest Sister. Little Heng, you tricked me!” Xuanyuan Yiyao huffed as she glared at Chen Heng.

“Perhaps I saw wrong. Let’s go down already. The Immortal Fu Hua you are dying to meet is there.” Master, since you didn’t show me kindness, don’t blame me for being ruthless.

“That’s true. Let’s go down, then.” At the mention of Fu Hua’s name, Xuanyuan Yiyao quickly put her camera away and enthusiastically headed downstairs.

Hehe! Third Elder Sister, I hope Eldest Sister won’t beat you up too badly for failing a simple job like taking pictures. However, I cannot let those photos spread.

Chen Heng did not even have to think to know that his eldest sister was the mastermind behind the picture-taking. However, she did not want to take personal action, so she mobilized Xuanyuan Yiyao, and Xuanyuan Yiyao simply ran over without even thinking it through.

If Chen Heng’s eldest sister had come in person—no, just any other sister—Chen Heng might have failed to destroy this camera. After all, only Xuanyuan Yiyao cultivated physically among his elder sisters.

Physical cultivators can take a beating. So, Third Elder Sister, take care. You can handle this!

“…” Chen Heng coolly observed the lively interaction between his third elder sister, Xuanyuan Yiyao, and Fu Hua from his spot on the sofa. Actually, it was more of one-sided excitement from Xuanyuan Yiyao while his master felt uneasy.

“So…uh…It’s eight o’clock now. It is time for me to cultivate. I’ll take my leave first. Let’s chat again when we have time.” After the clock in Chen Heng’s house rang at eight, he gave it some thought, then sent his master a private message.

After all, he was Fu Hua’s disciple and had even been through the ceremony for it. Hence, he could not bear to keep her suffering.

“Ah! Cultivation. Alright, then. Senior Fu Hua, I’ll see you tomorrow.” Yes, for cultivators, cultivating was very important.

After Fu Hua found this excuse, Xuanyuan Yiyao felt too embarrassed to delay Fu Hua by chatting with her.

“To-tomorrow?” Fu Hua froze, stunned. Again?

“That’s right. Seeing that we were chatting so happily, I decided to stay here for another day.”

“…” Where did you see it was happily? Although Fu Hua wanted to say that, Xuanyuan Yiyao had given her a Jixia Academy medallion, so she felt too embarrassed to say such a thing.

“Third Elder Sister, I don’t mind you staying here for a day, but if you don’t bring the camera back to Eldest Sister right away, you will probably get a scolding, and Eldest Sister does not pull her punches.”

Chen Heng did not want Xuanyuan Yiyao to remain, either. Not that he did not like her, but he feared she would suddenly want to look at the photos while staying here. What if she discovered the camera was broken? What if she wanted to use violence to make Chen Heng wear dresses again? He could not fight back.

Although Xuanyuan Yiyao was rather simple-minded, this also gave her a talent for physical cultivation; Chen Heng could not resist her.

“Erm…” Chen Heng could see Xuanyuan Yiyao wavering.

“Third Elder Sister, if you want to seek out my master, you can come back in a few days. There’s no need to do it now. Furthermore, as a cultivator, it won’t take much time for you to travel from the Ji Clan to my house, right?”

“That’s true!” Xuanyuan Yiyao hammered a fist into her other palm, suddenly seeing sense in her younger cousin’s words.

“Then I’m going now!” After saying this, Xuanyuan Yiyao immediately stood up.

“Wait! There’s no need to rush. I still have a few questions.”

“What questions? Ask quickly. After that, I have to return to the Ji Clan to report to Eldest Sister.” Upon hearing that her younger cousin had questions, Xuanyuan Yiyao sat back down.

“Why did the Ji Clan have so many extra slots this time?”

“Ah! Speaking of this, it was quite strange. In previous enrollment seasons of Jixia Academy, many people came to the Ji Clan to ask for the extra slots. However, no one came this time. Moreover, Jixia Academy gave the Ji Clan ten slots. Even when considering the entire clan, we could only use five slots, so we just gave all the remaining ones to you. That’s right. That’s what Eldest Uncle said.”

“Who will be going to Jixia Academy from the Ji Clan this time?”

“Erm…let me think. There’s your ninth elder sister, tenth elder sister, eleventh elder sister, twelfth elder sister, and thirteenth elder sister. These are the people using the slots the Ji Clan kept.”

“I was thinking I just finished the college entrance exams and you delivered the Jixia Academy slots to me. Had I known, I would not have taken the exams.”

“That’s nothing. Those elder sisters of yours are already attending university but will also attend Jixia Academy. For some reason, Jixia Academy only enrolls students once every four years. Previously, we did not have enough slots. This time, we have an extra five. How strange!”

“Alright, alright. Third Elder Sister, you should return now. Go quickly and report to Eldest Sister.”

“Huh? You are chasing me away already?” Xuanyuan Yiyao seemed to gain a new understanding of her heartless younger cousin. Tossing me aside after using me…this is too much.

“I’m not chasing you away. Rather, Eldest Sister will probably get angry if you still don’t return.”

------

After sending off his third elder sister, Chen Heng started thinking.

He wondered if the world consciousness was behind these five Jixia Academy slots.

Does the world consciousness really not hold grudges? I tricked it into calling me Papa so many times, and it still treats me so well?

As Chen Heng thought this, he could not help feeling slightly guilty.

However, Chen Heng quickly tossed these mild feelings of guilt to the back of his mind.

For insurance, Chen Heng used his Absolute Precognition to check, after sending his elder cousin away, and verify that his third elder sister would not be able to get out of bed for three days after getting beaten up. Only then did he relax.
