You Won't Be Mad, Big Sis, Will You?

"What are you standing there for? Start your performance!"

Having switched to a real physical body, A-Lin exchanged another glance with Fu Hua, then bent down to pick up the wooden sword and casually performed a neat and crisp sword flourish.

Fu Hua's eyes lit up. The details reveal the skill, and A-Lin's level seemed to be different from Ji Lin's.

A-Lin smiled gently and started walking towards Fu Hua.

"Crimson Kite, speaking of which, the last time I sparred with you was five thousand years ago in reality. I wonder if I've regressed, and I also wonder... how much you've improved?"

"State!!!"

The dull clashing of wooden swords, like the tolling of bells or the sound of drums, echoed for a long time in the desolate mountain forest.

At the same time, a large number of fallen leaves were swept up by the sword energy, one of which landed on Ji Lin's lips.

"Um?"

The projection of consciousness is a subtle physical form, existing between the real and the unreal; fallen leaves can stick to the lips.

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

Ji Lin casually spat out the fallen leaves.

But in that instant of distraction, he could no longer catch the shadows of their swords or discern their sword techniques.

The wooden swords clashed in mid-air like a symphony, their footwork and movements were incredibly skillful, and the two people had the same calm smiles on their lips.

Ji Lin looked at it and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

'Memory is memory, and skill level is skill level.'

'Our ancestor's true skill level is indeed beyond what we can replicate with just fragmented memories!'

'Just a fragment of cultivation memories allowed us to glimpse the fourth level of the Sword Heart. If our Ancestor were to live another five thousand years, he might even surpass our master, right?'

'That makes sense! After all, she was a pure human warrior who sealed Chiyou with the Xuanyuan Sword back then; her talent should be among the most outstanding in history!'

This exhilarating swordsmanship exchange continued until the sun was high in the sky.

When the two stopped, the once flat square was now covered with sword marks.

This was achieved without using true qi, relying solely on basic physical strength.

If true energy, or Honkai Energy, were used, every tiny sword mark on the field would possess unimaginable terrifying power.

Ji Lin and A-Lin switched back.

Then Ji Lin swung the wooden sword in his hand, blinking blankly, seemingly unable to believe that such a vast difference could exist between different people.

Fu Hua stroked her chin thoughtfully and said:

"It seems that the fragmented consciousness has also separated some of your traits. A-Lin inherited a relatively complete level of swordsmanship and martial arts cultivation, as for Ji Lin... well, you probably inherited some... well, imagination and writing ability, right?"

Fu Hua carefully considered his words, avoiding honest terms like "martial arts novice," "unstable temperament," or "acting on a whim."

Ji Lin puffed out his cheeks again, then muttered:

"Alright, alright, I really can't beat you guys in swordsmanship, so whatever you say goes! A-Lin, from now on I'll call out the names of the moves and the stances, and you'll be responsible for providing the technique and power, is that okay?"

"Really? I can use those super cool names too, sister?"

"Otherwise what? What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. We're like family, aren't we?" Oh, not that much.

"That's great! Don't worry, big sister, I will definitely work hard to perfect those moves and live up to those cool and talented names!"

A-Lin's eyes sparkled with excitement as he circled around Ji Lin.

Beside her, Fu Hua sighed and shook her head in exasperation—one was responsible for being handsome, and the other for fighting. Although it was a bit strange, given Ji Lin's current state of being split in two, it might actually be the best combination.

Fu Hua gave a gentle yet helpless smile, but a hint of reluctance and melancholy also appeared in her eyes.

'It's been over a month already. After all, I have a contract with Otto, and I can't stay on Great Void Mountain. But how should I tell Ji Lin and A-Lin?'

Fu Hua sighed inwardly. Perhaps for the first time in five hundred years, she regretted not setting an end date for the agreement she had made regarding her service.

If only I were free now, I could stay with Ji Lin and A-Lin forever.

Chapter 117 Sister, you're not angry, are you?

On a perfect midday, a gentle breeze wafted from the balcony into the living room, making it cool and comfortable.

Sirin lay on the sofa, her slender legs crossed in an unladylike but comfortable manner, while holding her phone and slowly leaving a message on the forum with very clumsy typing skills.

[Urgent! My younger sister is excessively fond of me. She keeps saying "I love you, big sister" and then doing all sorts of things to me! If this continues, she'll ruin her body and mind! How can I make her stop? Waiting for an answer online!]

After posting, Sirin casually scratched her flat, firm stomach, yawned, and then fell asleep.

Just like the past few days, I woke up from my afternoon nap today to a good afternoon kiss from Tachibana Yuki.

"Sizzle!"

"Smack!"

Sirin casually slapped the head away from her face, sat up, wiped her wet lips, and opened the game interface.

"Get away from me! You pervert!"

"Big sister is so cute~~"

Tachibana Yuki kissed Sirin's cheek, then laughed and left amidst her annoyed glare.

Although my life has been revolving around my older sister lately, I still have to do my job.

As the ruler of the secular society in the Far East, Tachibana Yuki wields terrifying resources and energy. She must support St. Freya, provide blood transfusions to Cocolia, and manage collaborations with the World Serpent —she has never displayed combat prowess because her battlefield is not one of swords and spears, not because it is unimportant.

On the contrary, Tachibana Yuki's existence is indispensable to the overall situation of the Anqi.

As Sirin watched Tachibana Yuki walk away, she subconsciously touched her lips and cheeks, then puffed out her cheeks.

"You're such a pain! You dragged me out just to humiliate me every day, didn't you? I shouldn't have trusted you in the first place!"

She complained, but Sirin also understood that in terms of intellect and understanding and control over humans, her strange younger sister was indeed far superior to her.

Now, besides trusting Anqi and silently waiting for her plan to be implemented, Sirin seems to have no other choice.

Then, Sirin spent the rest of the afternoon playing games.

At night, it's back to the decadent life of being waited on hand and foot.

Sirin didn't notice anything amiss. She simply found it incredibly comfortable that Anqi had taken care of all the little things—eating, bathing, sleeping, dressing up, and so on. And all she had to do was enjoy herself!

Sirin was completely unaware that her already meager ability to take care of herself had been gradually and completely stripped away by Anqi in this kind of life.

After some time, even if Sirin wanted to leave Anqi, she would find that she couldn't leave her at all.

"Forget about that, there's no point in wearing it."

As Tachibana Yuki tried to slip the white bear-shaped panties onto Sirin's feet, Sirin casually remarked...

Anyway, it won't be long before it's taken off or torn to shreds, so wearing it would just be a burden.

Tachibana Yuki stopped with a smile, held Sirin's freshly washed, tender white feet, and kissed them.

"Yes, my dear older sister~~"

"You want my feet too? You're such a pervert!"

"Because I love my older sister so much! I love every single thing about her!"

"Enough! Stop telling me you like me all the time! I don't want that kind of 'like'!"

Sirin blushed and scolded him.

Then he quickened his pace and rushed out of the bathroom.

Seeing that Tachibana Yuki didn't chase after her, Sirin slowly calmed down in the corridor.

"Speaking of that post from this afternoon, I wonder if you have any good ideas? Hmph! It's just about using human power to achieve your goals, right? I can do that too, don't underestimate me!"

Sirin murmured to herself, feeling slightly pleased with her cleverness, and happily found the post she had made at noon.

Then, I saw a row of "May you have a long and happy marriage" and "Wishing you happiness" signs.

"I wish you a beep—beep—beep—"

"Humans are really unreliable!"

Do you even know that she's been forced to become the Herrscher of the Void, because there's no point in wearing it anyway!

Such distress is truly beyond the comprehension of mere humans!

Sirin swiped through the screen angrily, and finally found a reasonably serious suggestion among the uniform building layouts.

[I suggest the older sister turn the tables and pin her down, letting her experience what it's like to be the older sister, giving her a taste of her own medicine! (laughing emoji)]

Sirin touched her chin thoughtfully.

Although that dog-head smiley face looks a little strange, the suggestion is good.

Turning the tables and bullying Anqi to make Anqi realize her mistake seems, perhaps, possibly feasible?

Sirin was still thinking.

Behind her, Anqi, who had completely unleashed her carnivorous bloodline, couldn't resist any longer and pounced on Sirin's Phoebe back view.

"Wait! I'm still thinking about something! Hold on a minute! Don't grab me randomly!"

"Big sister?~~"

"Yamero!!!"

The wailing quickly turned sour, and as for the everyday events that followed, well, that's something that can only be understood through experience.

"Then I'll be going now. Take the card I gave you; it contains some of my savings. It should be enough for daily expenses if I need to go out. You know how to use it, right?"

"Okay, okay, let's go. You've been nagging me for days, aren't you tired of it?"

At the moment of parting at Great Void Mountain, Ji Lin stood with his hands on his hips, looking at Fu Hua with considerable disdain, showing no sadness at the thought of parting.

Fu Hua tried to think positively, for example, that they were all thousands of years old, so there was no need to care about this short separation, and that they no longer needed to express anything through daily companionship.

But in the end, Fu Hua had to admit reality— Ji Lin was just annoyed by her nagging and now couldn't wait for her to set off!

"You heartless little brat!"

Fu Hua tapped Ji Lin on the head in frustration.

Then, she smiled softly, gazed into Ji Lin and A-Lin's eyes one last time, and turned to leave.

Suddenly, Ji Lin grabbed his wrist and pulled him back.

"Ji Lin, you... um!?"

Fu Hua's lips were sealed.

What followed was indescribable exchange and plunder.

In short, by the time Fu Hua came to her senses, her friend, who had taken advantage of the situation, had already run back into the house and slammed the wooden door shut.

Fu Hua touched her lips, and after a long while, said blankly:

"This is improper, against the rules, Ji Lin..."

Fu Hua walked away stiffly, but could no longer hide the blush on her face and the chaotic emotions in her heart.

Once Fu Hua's figure disappeared down the mountain path, the tightly closed wooden door quietly opened a crack.

"Phew! That blockhead is finally gone. I wonder if she understood what I meant?"

"It's hard to say. Given Crimson Kite's taciturn nature, she might think that her sister is playing a prank or getting revenge for her nagging these past few days."

"Don't jinx it! I think it might actually come true!"

"Hehe! So, sister, how does it feel to kiss? And what does Crimson Kite's mouth taste like?"

A-Lin floated beside him, asking with some curiosity, his clear, blinking eyes sparkling with innocence and eagerness.

She has never experienced kissing.

However, the sisters and elders in the tribe occasionally discuss related topics, and in their words, it seems to be a wonderful experience.

In short, A-Lin is not opposed to Ji Lin's desire to remarry Crimson Kite after five thousand years. She's simply very curious about the act of kissing!

Ji Lin blinked, touched his lips, and then shared without any reservations:
