Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

"Splash~"

The room was filled with mist and the sound of water was crisp and clear.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Xu Yuan leaned against the jade-embedded wall of the wooden tub filled with hot water, his head resting on a jade pillow along the tub's edge, his expression one of languorous ease.

By his side, kneeling in the tub was Linger, his elder sister by title, whose lowered gaze demurely attended to the washing of his long hair. She had stripped off her emerald and pink hued clothes, revealing a plump and full bellyband embroidered with a solitary plum blossom.

Fenger, also clad in nothing but a pale pink bellyband, bowed her head with cheeks flushed crimson, trembling as if seized by fear, biting her cherry-red lips as she cautiously scrubbed his body.

Moreover, during the bathing process, her gaze involuntarily flitted down under the water to that formidable object that had almost made her legs quiver with fright, fleeing in panic like a startled little beast whenever her sight brushed over its scorching heat, with her legs hidden under the water unconsciously squeezing together even tighter.

Xu Yuan comfortably narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling upon the undulating, tranquil curves that resembled a drifting cloud over the peach branches on the back of the blue-haired, blue-eyed girl, as if the vast expanse of white skin smooth as fine jade delighted the senses.

The indentation of the girl's spine etched a breathtaking arc akin to a winding mountain range that flowed down to the juncture of her back and buttocks, ultimately vanishing into the seductive crevice of her behind.

A mischievous impulse arose within Xu Yuan, and he lifted his hand, dropping it sharply.

Slap—

A resounding snap, ripples formed, and mirrored waves danced across the surface.

The girl, whose cheeks were already flushed, turned even redder, her legs weakening as she almost tumbled into the tub.

"Master,"

Upon seeing her sister's embarrassing plight, Linger bit her lower lip and said with a trembling voice, "Fenger is clumsy, would you allow me to wash you instead?"

"Oh?"

Xu Yuan smiled and glanced at her.

Linger quickly lowered her head.

"I, I apologize, Master."

"Do you know?"

Xu Yuan sighed, caressing the red mark on Fenger's snowy back, "Sometimes, a clumsy girl can be more endearing."

...

Jing Lixue's hand holding the teacup paused slightly.

"What's the matter?"

Lin Qingque looked at her as if sensing something.

"It's nothing."

Jing Lixue smiled and shook her head, continuing, "As I just said, so-called 'Heart Voice', if the soul is strong enough, can naturally be controlled. Hence, sometimes, even if you hear the Heart Voice, it may not necessarily reflect the true thoughts of someone's heart. So, if you really want to understand someone's heart, it's best to capture all their Heart Voices."

"Is that so?"

Lin Qingque nodded, then suddenly asked, "Speaking of which, you've talked so much, but I still don't know how you knew I could practice Mind Reading?"

"Is that important?"

Jing Lixue's eyebrows rose playfully, her voice tinged with laughter, "Isn't what's important the fact that I can help you with this?"

"That is indeed unimportant."

Smiling within Jing Lixue's increasingly rigid smile, Lin Qingque stated, "In any case, all I need to know is that you have intentions for my elder brother, and your ultimate goal is to drive a wedge between my elder brother and me. That's enough."

Jing Lixue wanted to use her, but wasn't she also using Jing Lixue in return?

...

When crabapple leaves fall with rouge hues, the buckwheat flowers bloom with the fragrance of white snow.

As Xu Yuan arrived at the front courtyard with the two maids, Lan Mei, Huang Ying, and the disciple who called himself the Saint Heir stood there as well.

Seeing his refreshed appearance accompanied by two blushing and coy twin girls, Lan Mei seemed to realize something, her complexion darkening.

The young man's reaction was even more apparent; his gaze almost instantly filled with resentment and venom.

"You actually took a bath, huh."

Lan Mei frowned slightly.

"Travel always calls for a good cleaning."

Xu Yuan replied nonchalantly, then turned his gaze to the people below.

"Are there spies among them?"

Lan Mei nodded, looking somewhat bothered, "Right before you got here, I had already sifted them with Divine Sense. I marked around fifteen or sixteen people, but... according to them, there are at least ten more spies."

"That many?"

Xu Yuan was somewhat astonished.

"Indeed."

She rubbed her temples with a troubled look, "Not to mention those spies who revealed themselves and passed messages after we arrived. This grand princess's residence is almost like a sieve."

Xu Yuan couldn't fathom what Jing Lixue was thinking; with her methods, she could have easily cleaned them all at once.

Why did she want them to handle this instead?

"You've arrived so late, little brother. Surely, you must have thought of some clever method?"

Just then, the stern young man approached again, his tone taunting and playful, "After all, Princess Luoyang values you greatly. She arranged the best room in Le Ge for you and even had her personal maids serve you. You must have some extraordinary qualities, little brother."

The insinuation was clear – Xu Yuan did not deserve such treatment.

Xu Yuan, picking up on the underlying resentment and envy in his voice, did not pay it too much mind and casually replied, "A method? Why need a method? Isn't this a simple matter?"

"Simple?"

The stern young man's mouth curved into a smile, "Do you think this is child's play? Calling it simple?"
