Senior Sister Is Too Weak and Cannot Take Care Of Herself (Transmigration) - Chapter 23

Having found a spirit pet to pass off as her own, Tang Huan felt a great weight lift from her shoulders and began to focus on her cultivation with her whole heart.

Fearing that the little Thunder Beast might bully the rabbit, Tang Huan went to check on the spirit beasts’ room. The Thunder Beast was panting heavily, sulkily playing with its tail to the side. The rabbit was squinting, curled up nearby in the sun. Seeing that the rabbit’s fur was as smooth as snow and clearly hadn’t been in a fight, Tang Huan felt relieved.

From that day on, Tang Huan wholeheartedly devoted herself to Senior Sister’s yard. Apart from the necessary classes, she barely left the mountain sect, beginning a happy cultivation life where she cared for a beauty while her cultivation improved at a rapid pace.

For the first few days, she still tried to maintain a little modesty, returning to her own cave dwelling every night. But as the spiritual energy in Qin Su’s cave dwelling grew denser by the day, Tang Huan started leaving White Mist Peak later and later, sometimes even spending the entire night there.

Qin Su’s originally quiet and desolate cave dwelling underwent a significant transformation due to Tang Huan’s arrival.

Tang Huan added many daily necessities, replaced Qin Su’s furniture, bought new alchemy furnaces and medicine cabinets, and even purchased new, beautiful clothes for Qin Su in various colors. Her own room was decorated to the same scale as her original cave dwelling. She even arranged extremely comfortable nests for the two little spirit beasts according to their respective needs.

Tang Huan had no other requirements for the two little spirit beasts besides wanting them to grow up happy and healthy. While this was a strange concept in the cultivation world, where spirit pets were used as mounts and battle companions, no living creature would refuse a peaceful and comfortable life. The two little spirit beasts, who had initially clung to Tang Huan reluctantly because of Qin Su’s presence, began to genuinely enjoy their peaceful and tranquil life after a period of apprehension.

Tang Huan also transplanted some flowers and trees into the cave dwelling’s yard. Due to the lush spiritual energy there, the plants grew luxuriantly, with flowers blooming almost non-stop.

For Tang Huan, aside from matters of life and death, most other things were not a big deal. Her personality was likable, and unlike the original her, she wasn’t arrogant. Over this period, she gained an excellent reputation in the Tianxuan Sect and made many friends. But compared to being surrounded by people, Tang Huan still preferred to stay in Qin Su’s small courtyard.

This was the leisurely life she had always dreamed of.

To have the ability to protect herself, Tang Huan spent most of her time cultivating. When she was tired, she would read a storybook, or look out the window to watch the two little spirit beasts basking in the sun under a flowering tree, or watch her beautiful Senior Sister, in her fluttering white robes, drying herbs in the sunlight.

She had pastimes, pets, and got to live with a gentle, beautiful woman. Her life was simply as happy as a celestial being’s.

Qin Su was truly an amazing person. The more time she spent with Qin Su, the more Tang Huan marveled. How could there be such a beautiful and easygoing, pure-hearted girl in the world?

It’s a good thing she met me. If she had met someone else, she’d probably help them count the money after they sold her.

To help Qin Su take care of her health, Tang Huan enforced her modern health regimen: no staying up late, eating on time, and having two servings of nourishing soup occasionally.

And Qin Su indulged almost all of Tang Huan’s requests. She would eat the food Tang Huan made on time, walk with Tang Huan among the flowers, trim the branches and leaves, and play with the two spirit pets with Tang Huan.

Occasionally, Qin Su would hesitate, but as soon as Tang Huan used her charm, Qin Su would be completely helpless against her.

Tang Huan’s efforts paid off quickly. After her companionship, while Qin Su’s complexion was still a bit pale, it was much better than her previous frail, weak, and deathly pale state.

The elders in the sect who cared about Qin Su went from being subtly wary of Tang Huan to patting her on the shoulder whenever they saw her.

“Huan’er, you’re doing great. Keep it up…”

“Huan’er, you’ve finally grown up. You’re so capable; your Senior Sister actually listens to you…”

Initially, Wang Mengyao had some reservations about her best friend making another good friend. But after a few days, for some unknown reason, when she saw Tang Huan again, Wang Mengyao’s eyes were a bit shifty. She cleared her throat, patted Tang Huan’s shoulder, and handed her a bunch of tonics.

“You… be good to Senior Sister…”

Although Tang Huan didn’t know why Wang Mengyao’s attitude had changed, she was still happy about it. She gradually became lost in everyone’s encouragement, developing a sense of mission. She became more and more caring toward Qin Su, and completely addicted to the state of nurturing this beautiful woman.

Days passed by, and soon a month had gone by.

Most people no longer believed Tang Huan would try to harm Qin Su, as Qin Su’s improved health was evident to everyone.

But a few people, including Ren Jingmu, didn’t think so. They felt that a person wouldn’t change for no reason and that Tang Huan must be scheming for something else behind the scenes.

Tang Huan couldn’t be bothered to explain to them. She wasn’t the original heroine, and the farther away Ren Jingmu stayed from her, the happier she was.

Fortunately, Qin Su still didn’t allow Ren Jingmu to enter her home as usual, and during this time, Liu Fei was still relentlessly pestering Ren Jingmu for sparring. Ren Jingmu, unable to stand the annoyance, often hid down the mountain since his cultivation had reached the late Foundation Establishment stage, granting him permission to leave the sect. Tang Huan barely ran into him.

*******

One day, Tang Huan asked Wang Mengyao to find someone to bring up a few jars of wine from the bottom of the mountain. The weather was getting colder, and Tang Huan planned to add some spiritual herbs and bury the wine under the flowering trees in the yard. She would dig it up at the end of the year to drink with Qin Su.

Wang Mengyao happened to be busy, so she left the wine at Tang Huan’s cave dwelling. Tang Huan went back to get the wine and brought some food for the little Irrigation Mice while she was at it.

The little mice had cleaned the cave dwelling meticulously, and everything was neatly arranged.

Tang Huan had originally wanted to bring the little Irrigation Mice to White Mist Peak, but their spiritual power was too low. The moment they got close to White Mist Peak, their eyes would roll back. Recalling the Thunder Beast and the Black Bird on White Mist Peak, Tang Huan gave up on the idea and left the little mice in her cave dwelling, returning to feed them regularly.

As she was getting the wine, Tang Huan accidentally discovered a bag full of booklets next to the jars. She saw the “Cultivation Manual” covers on the booklets, which were a thinly veiled attempt to hide their true content, and understood everything. She didn’t stand on ceremony with Wang Mengyao. She planned to pick two of them to take back to White Mist Peak to read. As she opened one, she was caught off guard by her own name.

[Qin Su was affected by the medicine, her cheeks flushed, her charm unparalleled. And that Tang Huan, the little tyrant who loved beautiful people, was proficient in all kinds of lewd tricks…]

[…]

[How pitiful, that Qin Su, a delicate flower sought after by countless elite disciples, was ravaged by the little tyrant Tang Huan…]

Tang Huan quickly skimmed a few pages and felt completely numb.

She had never imagined that she would become the protagonist of a storybook, and a dirty one at that!

Just then, the little Irrigation Mice next to her began to chat while eating their food.

The little mice warmly welcomed Tang Huan’s return and then began discussing the relationship between Tang Huan and Qin Su.

Since Tang Huan was now often in Qin Su’s cave dwelling, they unanimously agreed that under the influence of the Spirit-Aged Grass, Tang Huan and Qin Su did indeed have a secret relationship. That’s why Tang Huan cared so much about Qin Su and stayed in her cave dwelling all the time.

“But Bai Feng is too vicious. She was the one who arranged for the Spirit-Aged Grass to be used, which made Tang Huan fall for Qin Su. Now she’s even making people write these storybooks to spread these rumors.”

“She wants to kill two birds with one stone—”

“The elders have calculated that the Celestial Mystery Sect will open in a month. The Tianxuan Sect will probably hold a Grand Competition for the disciples to select strong sword cultivators to enter the realm. Qin Su, who understands all kinds of arrays, will probably go with the team. Bai Feng must be planning to make a move to kill Qin Su during that process.”

“But Tang Huan has foiled Bai Feng’s plans several times, so Bai Feng definitely doesn’t want Tang Huan to go with the team.”

“Logically, Tang Huan has the strength to enter the realm. But Bai Feng is spreading these rumors through the storybooks. If some idiot in the Tianxuan actually believes them, they’ll definitely try every way to stop Tang Huan from going…”

“I heard Ren Jingmu smashed a book stall at the foot of the mountain for no reason today. I wonder if he’s that idiot?”
