Chapter 403: As Expected Of You
To be honest, the moment Lu Yuliu stood before the door, she suddenly wasn't sure what she had come here to do.
At first, she thought she had already calmed herself and settled on a plan.
But now—within this place that muddled perception, with only that certain someone inside the room ahead, while Sister Xiaoyao still remained at the residence—somewhere deep in the Sword Fairy's heart, a faint voice was stirring… whispering bold, reckless thoughts.
By the time she stepped inside, ready to speak, she noticed something between her gaze and his.
A strange piece of jade.
It's fist-sized, at first glance as clear as the blue sky. But upon closer inspection, in its center condensed a patch of pitch-black darkness, tiny black specks drifting around it.
Lu Yuliu had never seen such a jade before. She couldn't even name it. Her first instinct was confusion, her gaze passing through the jade's clear surface to meet the Demon Sect Holy Saint's eyes as he rose to his feet.
And she noticed: he was holding another jade stone.
This one was also fist-sized, but its surface seemed dark and black… No—upon closer look, it wasn't truly black. Instead, countless specks of black filled the inside, pressed close to the surface, covering nearly everything. At a glance, it looked like a piece of black jade.
But in the tiny gaps where the black specks hadn't fully joined, one could see inside—a clear, empty void.
The two jade stones looked like opposites.
'What strange stones… though they are rather beautiful.'
Still, they couldn't compare to that one-and-only Star-Moon Jade she'd received from him.
Wait, no—she wasn't here for jade stones!
Whatever oddities this fellow was up to inside his room, given his reputation, it wasn't unusual for him to have a whole pile of mysterious jades she didn't recognize. That part didn't surprise her much.
What mattered was something else.
The Sword Fairy quietly drew a breath and took another step inside, fully entering the room.
She was about to use her spiritual energy to close the door—when she froze, whipping her head around.
The door had already closed.
It was indeed by her own spiritual energy.
But… wasn't the door a little too far away from her current position?
If the door was back there, then right now she should be…
Lu Yuliu's neck turned stiffly as she looked forward again.
What she saw was the boy's slightly dazed face, and from his lips spilled an involuntary murmur:
"…The hell? The effect is this strong?"
...
As expected of the true protagonist.
Even Luo Wusheng himself was at a loss for words.
According to the Empress, these two spirit jades from the Palace of Fate of the Ancient Heavenly Gate had been passed down within the Immortal Nation for generations, studied countless times without anyone managing to draw out their mysteries, their use completely unknown.
And yet now—perhaps truly influenced by the presence of the freshly arrived protagonist—one of them had been activated.
Specifically, the one that had vanished from the table and drifted into the little girl who had just stepped inside.
As for what its effect was…
"Ahem. If I told you I have no idea why this happened, Little Yuli… would you believe me?"
Looking at the breathtakingly beautiful face of the girl before him, Luo Wusheng's voice trembled slightly.
The Sword Fairy gave no response.
Her delicate face was so red it looked ready to drip blood, her clear eyes brimming with confusion and daze.
Luo Wusheng swallowed hard.
The whole sequence of events replayed in his mind.
After he noticed one jade missing from the table, he had been torn between fearing some calamity and worrying that his precious treasure had truly vanished. He had stood up at once—only to find that the stone had somehow floated into the girl who had just entered.
At first, he had sighed in relief, glad his treasure wasn't lost.
But immediately afterward, he realized that something was very, very wrong.
Just as he was about to use his spiritual energy to retrieve the jade stone and then ask Little Yuli what she had come for, Luo Wusheng suddenly realized his body was no longer obeying his control.
He didn't know what was happening, but instinctively he focused his will on suppressing the abnormal state overtaking him.
'These symptoms… it feels a bit like qi deviation? But my mind is perfectly clear. It's just that my body, and even my spiritual energy within, seem to be pulled by some strange force…'
Was this the ability of that jade stone that had undergone mutation?
The thought came naturally.
After all, the most obvious anomaly earlier had been that jade stone's sudden teleportation.
No—if it could even affect him, then didn't that mean…?
Realization struck, and the Demon Sect Holy Saint lifted his gaze—just in time to see the girl's figure somehow right in front of him.
Caught off guard, unable to act while he was pouring everything into resisting the changes inside, he felt a soft impact against his body.
By the time he regained his senses, the scene had already shifted into what it was now.
He was lying flat on the floor, with that familiar softness pressed tightly against him. The confused young girl was sprawled on top of him, staring wide-eyed, clearly just as shocked as he was.
One above, one below, the two stared at each other in silence.
Fortunately, thanks to the ample "cushioning" between them, their faces—though very close—still kept a delicate sliver of distance.
Even so, their breaths mingled against each other's cheeks, making the air feel hot.
"I— you—"
The girl's CPU had completely overloaded.
Before entering, she had imagined countless possible scenarios of meeting this annoying bully—but absolutely none had started off this explosively.
Her mind went completely blank, every prior thought scattered into the heavens.
Her body, however, remembered what kind of reflex it should have in this kind of situation… Lu Yuliu immediately tried to stand up, then delivered a shame-filled iron fist to the face.
Unfortunately, she couldn't even manage the first step.
The Sword Fairy tried to get up, but discovered her body was stuck fast against his.
That only made her more flustered. She instinctively struggled, but all it accomplished was making her robes even more disheveled.
Amidst this chaos, she vaguely heard a voice.
'So… anywhere that's completely pressed together can't be separated? That's the jade stone's ability then… attraction? Magnetism? Or is this some kind of universal glue power?'
'Hiss—Little Yuli, don't move around like that! If you wriggle like this, how am I supposed to endure it, let alone analyze the situation— Calm down, calm down, my little one…'
'But at least, thanks to Little Yuli's 'ball-charging collision,' our faces and a few other spots aren't stuck…'
"…Ball-charging collision?"
Picking up on the keywords she overheard, Lu Yuliu blurted out the words in puzzlement.
Then she noticed this annoying bully expression stiffen at once, his gaze unconsciously sliding down from her face.
Boom!
Dust and debris burst into the air.
Her frantic struggles caused the two of them to roll to the side, smashing straight through the wall into the next room.
A room quite familiar to them both.

Note:
What happen in this chapter:
Thanks to the stone's power, Lu Yuliu and Luo Wusheng are glued together like a magnet.
Lu Yuliu's huge breasts act as a cushion between them (Her boobs are on Luo Wusheng chest), preventing their face to smash against each other.
She struggled so much to the point where it caused them to roll into the room next to them, crushing the wall between them.
