Chapter 380: Life Is Like a Play

"Will it really work?"

Using his divine sense to feel his "delicate" appearance, Chen Chen asked with some uncertainty.

Although he said this normally, it automatically became a gentle female voice when he said it out loud. It seemed that it was also the effect of the mask.

"It will work. Don't worry, this mask was given to me by Master. It is very difficult for cultivators below the early-stage of the Spirit Severing stage to see any clues. As long as you speak less, even Chu Yun won't be able to see anything. However, you must remember that Twelfth Junior Sister is at the initial stage of the Void Refinement realm. In case anything happens, don't use your strength that exceeds that of the initial stage of the Void Refinement realm. When you have the chance, you can..."

Li Xiang reminded him softly. At this point, she wanted to say something but stopped.

"I'll go now then. Don't worry, I'll come back."

Chen Chen stood up straight and said.

"Go, go!"

Li Xiang waved her hand. At this moment, she looked at Chen Chen with a complicated gaze.

On one hand, she hoped that Chen Chen would never return to the Li Xian Sect. On the other hand, she was afraid that her master would find out the truth and blame her after he came out of seclusion.

Also..

Would anything happen if Chu Yun followed this person out?

With that thought in mind, she didn't dare to continue thinking. She simply lowered her head and muttered, "Everything has nothing to do with me.".

When Chen Chen saw this, he smiled and no longer hesitated. He flew towards the mountain gate. The moment he stepped out of the mountain gate, he had an idea.

This trip was successful!

"Twelfth Junior Sister, you're finally here. Let's go."

Chu Yun smiled at her and took the lead to board the flying boat.

Chen Chen responded and followed on board the flying boat.

The flying boat was not considered small. There was a complete suite on it. Although the facilities were complete and there were two futons, there was only one bed.

Dressed as a woman and staying in the same room with Chu Yun, Chen Chen could not help but feel a little nervous.

After the flying boat flew into the sky, Chen Chen held the principle of not saying that it was not bad and sat on the futon to start cultivating.

"Twelfth Junior Sister, we're finally going to leave the sect but you're actually in such a hurry to cultivate. This doesn't seem like you."

However, he did not expect that Chu Yun would say this with a smile after he had just started cultivating for less than fifteen minutes.

Hearing this, Chen Chen's expression did not change. He calmly said, "Senior Sister, everyone in the sect is fighting for the lead now. I don't dare to slack off in the slightest."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you've really changed. The other day, you told me that if I had the chance to come out again, I must find a good place to eat to my heart's content."

Chu Yun teased.

Chen Chen smiled awkwardly. 'So the woman I'm pretending to be is a foodie.' He silently noted down this point in his head.

Chu Yun saw that her Twelfth Junior Sister seemed to be acting a little strange today. She only thought that she might have something on her mind, so she did not ask any further. She just calmly sat at the side and began to cultivate.

The flying boat kept flying forward under the urging of the Spirit Stones. It was exceptionally quiet inside the flying boat.

Chu Yun's expression remained the same, but Chen Chen became even more nervous under such a quiet atmosphere.

..

When it was late at night, Chu Yun slowly opened her eyes. When she saw that her Twelfth Junior Sister was still cultivating, astonishment flashed across her eyes.

This little Junior Sister was also hyperactive. It was already rare for her to cultivate for a few hours during the day. She didn't expect that she would still be cultivating at night. Could it be that her habits had really changed?

At this moment, Chen Chen also opened his eyes and rubbed his stomach. "Senior Sister, I want to eat something."

Chu Yun smiled when she heard that. "We'll look for a city to stay in tomorrow. At that time, I'll bring you to look for something to eat. However, once we get the pills, we'll have to rush back at full speed."

"Alright..." Chen Chen subconsciously pursed his lips and rested his head on Chu Yun's thigh.

Chu Yun didn't have any reaction and seemed to be used to it.

Chen Chen's relaxed slightly. Given Chu Yun's intimate attitude towards him, he reckoned that the two of them should be close friends. It was only normal for close friends to be platonically affectionate with each other.

"Stop fooling around. I need to find a place to take a bath. I've been too busy in the sect recently, and now I finally have some free time."

As soon as she said this, Chen Chen's body suddenly stiffened.

'Taking a bath... This isn't a joke, right?'

To be honest, cultivators were basically not stained with dust. Even if they were dirty, their bodies would be cleansed quickly with some spiritual energy. Some male cultivators with more profound cultivation levels didn't even take a bath for hundreds of years.

Only female cultivators liked to take baths. Although they couldn't get anything out of it, women were different from men. Even if they didn't have any reason to take a bath, they still had to do so.

But where was she going to bathe in the middle of the night?

"I'm a woman. I also like to bathe."

Chen Chen muttered to himself. In the next second, he was all smiles, as if he was extremely happy to hear this.

"I know of a place."

Chu Yun smiled mysteriously. With a thought of hers, the flying ship quickly descended. Not long after, it landed in a deep mountain.

Chen Chen swept his divine senses across the area and immediately found a hot spring in the deep mountain. It was obvious that this was the place Chu Yun was talking about.

"Twelfth Junior Sister, guard this place for me. When I'm done bathing, I'll keep a lookout for you."

Chu Yun brought Chen Chen to the hot spring and said softly.

Chen Chen's Adam's apple rolled. Fortunately, this woman did not ask him to go take a bath together with her. Otherwise, how could he endure it?

However, in this wilderness, he did need someone to guard it. At least he would be able to buy some time to put on his clothes if he encountered an enemy.

If the two of them were to take a bath together and suddenly encounter an enemy or some demonic beast, would they have to fight with the other party naked?

"Senior Sister, don't worry. If a man comes near, I will destroy him in a minute!"

Chen Chen said in a joking tone.

Chu Yun giggled and turned to walk towards the hot spring. As she walked, the clothes on her body gradually disappeared. Apparently, she had put them into her storage ring.

Under the moonlight, her back was as smooth as jade. Chen Chen's eyes were very calm.

'Aren't I just a naked woman? What's so strange about that? Three-legged toads are rare. Naked women were everywhere.'

"Junior Sister, why are you staring at me?"

Chu Yun turned around and asked with a smile.

Chen Chen's pupils contracted, and then he revealed a look of envy.

"Nothing... I just feel you're really beautiful and have a good figure, so I'm a little envious. Alas, if a man sees this scene, he definitely wouldn't be able to control himself."

"Hehe, you're so sweet."

Chu Yun rolled her eyes at Chen Chen charmingly and walked into the hot spring.

"I'm a woman now. I can't avoid suspicion, or else I'll reveal a flaw."

Chen Chen said in his heart. Then, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to focus on watching Chu Yun take a bath.

Splash...

The sound of Chu Yun fiddling with the water could be heard from time to time in the hot spring, but Chen Chen was not flustered at all.

Strictly speaking, he was not peeking at her while she was bathing. He was looking at her openly.

..

After a full hour, Chu Yun's slightly embarrassed and annoyed voice could be heard from the hot spring.

"You little girl, you have been staring at me for so long and still haven't taken your eyes off me. Am I that good-looking?"

Chen Chen smiled awkwardly and rubbed his slightly dry eyes.

'So it had been a long time? Time really passes quickly.'

"Yes, you're really pretty."

Chen Chen imitated the woman's tone and said with a smile.

"It's not like you don't have what I do, hmph!"

Chu Yun suddenly snorted coldly in the hot spring and waved her hand. A powerful spiritual power suddenly burst out from her.

Chen Chen, who was sitting cross-legged by the hot spring, was caught off guard when she pulled him into the hot spring.

Immediately after, a pair of hands searched his body up and down, and a lot of water splashed toward him. At the same time, Chu Yun's cheerful laughter echoed in his ears.

"This is what you get for staring at me! This is what you get for staring at me! Little girl, instead of picking up good habits you're picking up all kinds of nonsense all day long."

"Uh..."

Chen Chen, who had landed in the hot spring, looked at the scene in front of him. For a moment, he was stunned and speechless.
