She Knelt as Soon as They Met?

Inside the cave abode, the lamps cast a dim, yellow light, which softly illuminated the stone walls and warmed the bed in the corner.

Baili Mingyue cautiously immersed her Divine Sense into the Sound Transmission Jade Token and read the message. When she saw that Lu Yang actually wanted to ask her for help and was not there to kill her, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed onto the bed, like a salted fish that had lost all its strength. Even the bedding was dented by her weight.

Then, Baili Mingyue's expression changed repeatedly, revealing a mixture of surprise and fear.

To her delight, the radiant Young Master Lu, whom she could only see in her memories, actually came to see her in person!

What frightens her is that Young Master Lu actually needs her help?

I'm just a useless Early Golden Core cultivator, what help could I possibly be to Young Master Lu?

I'm sure I won't be able to do anything right then, and Young Master Lu will look down on me!

Baili Mingyue's mind was filled with Lu Yang's cold and disdainful gaze, and then she knelt humbly in the corner, trembling, feeling utterly hopeless.

Thinking of this, Baili Mingyue trembled, her face turning pale with fear.

But she didn't dare not open the door, after all, it was Young Master Lu had come. If she didn't open the door, Young Master Lu would definitely kick out a good-for-nothing like her who only knew how to loaf around and wait to die!

Thinking of this, Baili Mingyue took a deep breath, got out of bed trembling, and hurriedly ran towards the door.

However, she quickly remembered something, stopped at the door, turned around abruptly, looked at the snacks by the bed, and hurriedly ran back to put them away.

After looking around to make sure nothing was missed, Baili Mingyue hurriedly left the bedroom.

As she ran out of the cave abode, she took out the control panel of the mountain-protecting array and began operating it. At the same time, she wondered in her mind whether she should kneel down to greet Young Master Lu when she saw him.

Beyond Su Jinxuan's mountain peak, layers of mist slowly dissipated like a vortex, revealing a circular entrance. Through the entrance, one could see the beautiful scenery of the inner mountain peaks. Amidst the swirling spiritual mist, verdant peaks appeared and disappeared, waterfalls cascaded down like ribbons, and the faint cries of spirit cranes could be heard.

It seems Baili Mingyue has received his telepathic message, but why hasn't she replied?

Lu Yang transformed into a rainbow of light, passed through the entrance, and entered Su Jinxuan's mountain peak, looking around the peak with a somewhat bewildered expression.

He didn't even know which mountain peak was Baili Mingyue's cave abode.

Unlike him, Su Jinxuan had some talented members of the Su Household living inside the mountain, and Lu Yang couldn't just recklessly enter someone else's cave abode.

Although given his status, no one would say anything even if he forced his way in, it would still be somewhat impolite and a waste of time.

Just as Lu Yang was about to use telepathy to ask Baili Mingyue about the location of her cave abode, Lu Yang suddenly sensed a familiar aura appearing not far away.

It was the aura of Baili Mingyue.

Lu Yang exhaled a breath of stale air, which immediately transformed into a rainbow of light and flew towards the direction of the aura.

Soon, Lu Yang spotted a secluded cave abode halfway up the mountain. The cave abode was located near the valley, surrounded by ancient trees and vines, with moss covering the ground, giving it a deep and quiet atmosphere. This matched Lu Yang's impression of Baili Mingyue, who was somewhat socially awkward.

At this moment, the stone door of the cave abode was open, and Baili Mingyue, wearing a loose white nightgown that revealed her delicate collarbone and some of her snow-white skin, was standing there with her head down.

Lu Yang immediately landed in front of Baili Mingyue. He looked at Baili Mingyue, whose hair was loose, who was both innocent and alluring, and who had a small black mole at the corner of her eye. He smiled slightly and was about to speak.

Just then, Baili Mingyue knelt down with a thud, prostrating herself completely. Her voice trembled slightly, as if she were very frightened and nervous, and she stammered, "Bai... Baili Mingyue greets Young Master Lu! I am deeply grateful for Young Master Lu's personal visit..."

Lu Yang: "?"

What he was about to say was cut off by Baili Mingyue's kneeling.

For a moment, he even forgot what he originally wanted to say...

What's going on?!

Why did this guy kneel down the moment we met?

Lu Yang found it hard to understand, but he was utterly shocked.

And you came out in your pajamas, weren't you afraid of flashing yourself?

An awkward silence fell over the room. Lu Yang stared blankly at Baili Mingyue, who was lying prostrate on the ground.

When Baili Mingyue saw that Lu Yang didn't say anything, her heart trembled. Oh no, could it be that Young Master Lu is already angry?

She swallowed hard, feeling sweat starting to bead on her forehead and back.

Just then, Lu Yang snapped out of his reverie, coughed lightly, and said, "Get up first before you speak."

Baili Mingyue nodded tremblingly, "Oh..."

She silently stood up, clasped her hands together in front of her, her fingers twisted together, looking very nervous.

Lu Yang rubbed his forehead, forced a smile, and said, "Martial Aunt Baili, there's no need to be nervous. Since I'm the one asking for your help, it's natural for me to come and see you."

Baili Mingyue waved her hands frantically, chattering, "No, no! A useless woman like me isn't even qualified to be a pet for Young Master Lu. Being able to help Young Master Lu is a blessing I accumulated in my past life, so of course I should kneel down and listen to Young Master Lu!"

Lu Yang: "????"

Etc...

Pet?

What kind of pet?

Lu Yang suddenly felt that this guy, who seemed a bit socially awkward, was actually quite different from what he had imagined.

He looked at Baili Mingyue with a slightly strange expression. Perhaps because she was wearing a nightgown instead of the loose Daoist robe she wore before, Lu Yang noticed that she had a very good figure. Her chest was broad, and the clothes were stretched at the waist, but you could vaguely see that her waist was very slender.

His lips twitched slightly, unable to suppress his curiosity, he asked, "What pets? Where did Martial Aunt Baili hear about these things?"

Baili Mingyue froze, her mind going blank.

When she met Young Master Lu alone, she felt her mind was in a daze. She was nervous and scared, and she spoke without thinking, basically saying whatever came to mind.

She actually blurted out what was on her mind!

Faced with Young Master Lu's question, she opened her mouth, but felt her throat dry and was speechless for a moment.

You can't exactly say you read this in a storybook, can you?

For example, there are stories of pet cat Demonization into human form to repay a debt of gratitude, or fox demons willingly becoming scholars' pets because they haven't repaid a life-saving debt...

This type of storybook particularly suited her taste.

She even occasionally wondered if she would meet an owner who would make her her own, and she would become a pet, living a life of leisure and idleness.

Of course, she never dared to voice this thought, not even her master knew, otherwise she suspected that her master would choose to purge the entire sect, sacrificing even her own family for the greater good...

When she saw Lu Yang, the contents of the storybook automatically came to mind.

Of course, Baili Mingyue felt that she was self-aware enough to know that a woman as humble and insignificant as her was not qualified to be Young Master Lu's pet; she could only dream about it.

But now... how should she answer this question from Young Master Lu?

She had never even imagined such a scene!

For a moment, Baili Mingyue even considered self-destruction, thinking that destruction would be the end of it all.
