Gu Yiyi: You're not allowed to look

At the sight of the woman's delicate body, like creamy white jade, youthful and vibrant, slender and graceful, Qin Yi was dumbstruck for a moment.

This [Divine Stroke] actually had a clothes-bursting effect?

So this skill's original armor-reduction effect had turned into clothes-bursting in this fantasy world?

Bursting clothes caused no damage, but he had to admit that the effect was simply more wonderful than reducing armor.

After all, whether man or woman, if [Divine Stroke] burst their clothes in public and left them stark naked, wouldn't they suffer instant social death on the spot?

"You're still looking?"

Gu Yiyi screamed as she covered her body, but there was only so much those two little hands could hide.

Standing was awkward, and so was crouching.

In her desperation, she was filled with grievance and sorrow, and tears began pattering down. "You damned Qin Yi, you rotten Qin Yi, you're not allowed to look..."

"I'm not looking. I didn't see anything."

Qin Yi offered an explanation that went against his conscience. In truth, he had already seen everything he should and shouldn't have.

The young lady really was quite well-developed.

Fortunately, there was no one else on the training grounds at the moment, so it didn't count as being exposed to the public.

He immediately stripped off his outer robe and tossed it over, then turned around. "Junior Sister Yiyi, put this on first. I really didn't see anything."

Gu Yiyi shyly picked up the robe. No longer caring that it was a man's clothing, she pulled it on as she cried.

She was in such a hurry that she even tripped over it midway and fell to the ground, tumbling into a heap.

Qin Yi turned back in concern and, by accident, got another eyeful of everything.

Who could have expected that Gu Yiyi would catch his gaze at that very moment? With a wail, the girl began crying in grievance again. "You're still looking..."

"Don't rush," Qin Yi said. "I'm not looking anymore. I promise I won't look."

It took quite a while before Gu Yiyi finally got the robe on.

A man's robe was, after all, a little too big on her.

Like women in later times wearing men's T-shirts or dress shirts, it carried something of the flavor of "uniform temptation."

The loose robe did not conceal her graceful figure. Instead, it outlined some of her curves in tantalizing glimpses, mysterious and alluring.

But with only the robe on, though it could serve as a short skirt, walking was still awkward.

"How am I supposed to get back like this..." she was still crying.

"I'll carry you back while no one's around."

Qin Yi made a swift decision, suddenly stepped up beside her, and scooped her into a princess carry.

Taking care of her, he secured Gu Yiyi's "skirt hem" in the crook of his arm so that her thighs wouldn't be exposed.

At the same time, as he carried her down the mountain, he once again used the first move of [Green Lotus Sword Song]-Bring in the Wine!

Gu Yiyi had been feeling quite resentful, but for some unknown reason, after Qin Yi used [Green Lotus Sword Song], that sense of pleasure returned.

It also made her feel less resentful.

But she still retained some of a girl's pique.

They were now mere inches apart, the girl resting against the boy's chest. For the first time, she felt a man's presence from so close, and for a moment, besides shyness, she inexplicably felt her heart leap like a startled deer.

Looking at the boy's face, she couldn't help raising her little fist and thumping his chest.

Such a light thump naturally didn't hurt.

But Qin Yi played along anyway, letting out an "Ow."

"You damned Qin Yi, you rotten Qin Yi, what kind of ridiculous swordsmanship is this? H-how can it burst people's clothes!"

Qin Yi felt terribly wronged. He didn't know either!

"Junior Sister Yiyi, I really didn't know about that. This swordsmanship only just appeared in my mind, and I've never used it before, so I didn't know how powerful it was. Besides, I called out to you earlier and told you not to come over. You were the one who wouldn't listen..."

Gu Yiyi's cheeks burned as she listened.

Qin Yi really had called out earlier and told her not to come over.

But she had thought that her cultivation realm was higher than Qin Yi's, and he had only just mastered the move. How powerful could it possibly be?

And so, she had decided to test it on herself and personally try out the power of this move, "Divine Stroke."

Who could have imagined that the moment she touched the Sword Qi of "Divine Stroke," all her clothes, even her dudou, would be torn to shreds?

She had been left stark naked, and this fellow had seen everything.

"Don't say another word."

A soft little hand suddenly rose and covered Qin Yi's mouth.

"Did you really not see anything?"

Tears still glimmered at the corners of Gu Yiyi's eyes, but she asked him with utter seriousness.

Qin Yi thought that if he said he had seen everything, she would probably cry for a very long time.

But if he said he hadn't seen anything, he would waste this chance to quickly bring them closer.

After all, in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, why had Lin Pingzhi overtaken Linghu Chong and stolen his little junior sister away?

It was because that fellow Lin Pingzhi knew how to flirt and was bold.

Moreover, women were highly receptive to good-looking men who suddenly appeared in their lives.

For instance, if a male student transferred into a class, as long as he was handsome, he would surely become popular among the female students very quickly.

Because that was novelty!

So Qin Yi couldn't say he hadn't seen anything now.

If he said he hadn't seen anything, it would be the same as throwing away this opportunity for nothing.

"I... saw half." After weighing his words, he said that.

Gu Yiyi stared with her large, tearful eyes, the mist within them drifting hazily. Half?

"Which... half?"

The upper half or the lower half?

Qin Yi considered it and was just about to speak when that tender white hand suddenly reached over again and covered his mouth. "Don't say it. Don't tell me. I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear anything."

"You didn't see anything. You must not have seen anything!"

She wiped away her tears and warned him with kittenish ferocity.

This time, Qin Yi nodded.

In any case, he had already said it and let her know. That was enough.

For an innocent girl like her, having a boy see her body for the first time would give her a sense of a "first time."

So he absolutely couldn't say he hadn't seen anything.

Just like that, he carried Gu Yiyi and soon returned to Emerald Bamboo Peak.

As they passed Pine-Side Pool, they happened upon two people.

They were two male disciples. From afar, they spotted Qin Yi and, more importantly, saw Gu Yiyi in his arms.

One of the male disciples raised his voice and shouted, "Who are you? Let go of Junior Sister Yiyi."

Hearing his shout, Gu Yiyi immediately urged Qin Yi on. "Hurry, hurry! Don't let him see."

Seeing Gu Yiyi's nervousness, he would have sped up even without her saying anything.

After all, how could he let someone else feast their eyes on his woman?

At once, he unleashed the first move, Bring in the Wine, again. One thrust carried him over ten meters, and with two, he had flashed far into the distance!
