TDCM Chapter 302: His Scent Is On You

“Eh?”

Yuan Chu looked up, only to be embraced tightly by Ye Chenyuan.

He hugged her for a long time before releasing her. He then asked her, putting an emphasis on every word, “Master, what was holding you back just now? Why did you only return after I’ve been summoning you for such a long time?”

Yuan Chu had planned to tell him about how she’d humiliated Jun Liuyang and escaped from right under his nose.

But when she recalled how dutiful Ye Chenyuan was, and how he might seek Jun Liuyang out for revenge if she told him, she quietly swallowed her words and only told him about Weisheng Ji and what had happened in the Mystic Realm of Bones.

“How’s that? I did a good deed!”

She had a pretentious look on her face and it wasn’t until she had relayed everything to him that she noticed the black sword that was hovering beside her.

The sword took this opportunity to circle Yuan Chu twice as he clicked his tongue, “So this is your little master, she’s lovely indeed. No wonder……” you were thinking about her the entire time.

Unfortunately, before the divine sword could finish his words, he was thrown into the Sky Pearl with a flick of Ye Chenyuan’s hand.

Yuan Chu was surprised. “Is that the divine sword? You obtained it? Sure enough, you obtained it! Little Yuan Yuan, you’re so awesome! Can I look at it?”

In her last life, Yuan Chu didn’t have many chances to see the divine sword. She didn’t know if it was because Ye Chenyuan didn’t like to use the divine sword or if he didn’t need to wield it in order to defeat her. In short, she had never had the chance to experience the divine sword’s power, not to mention looking at it from a close distance.

As for the divine sword, once he entered the Sky Pearl, he was smacked down by the little White Dragon before he could even speak.

“Ouch, what are you doing? Why aren’t you letting me finish what I have to say?” Venerable Li wasn’t in the Sky Pearl right now, so the little White Dragon grabbed onto the divine sword as he said frustratedly, “Can’t you see that devil Ye has yet to confess his feelings? If you’re too quick to speak and reveal it, I can tell you very responsibly that even without Heavenly Fire, devil Ye will still be able to melt you.”

“What? He has yet to succeed?”

The divine sword was very surprised because Ye Chenyuan was so cruel and ruthless towards others, killing others decisively. Yet towards such a fair and tender little girl, he suddenly became so patient and good?

But he soon started to laugh in a gloating manner, “It’s good that they’re not together yet. Someone should take the edge off that kid’s spirit, I’ll be watching the show!”

Ye Chenyuan listened in on the divine sword’s words as he thought about how he should reply master.

He looked at Yuan Chu. Although they’d not seen each other for just one day, he still missed her a lot.

He didn’t want even the smallest bit of her attention to fall on something else so he held her hand as he said, “That sword isn’t good to look at, didn’t you say that I’m good looking? Look at me.”

The corner of Yuan Chu’s mouth twitched. Had she been acting too thick-skinned? The little disciple she brought up had become narcissistic.

By the side, Venerable Li let out a cough before he said, “Look, didn’t I say that Little Chu would be fine. She’s all grown up, you don’t have to worry anymore.”

When Venerable Li said this, Ye Chenyuan gave Yuan Chu a careful look. Counting the days in the mystic realm and looking at master’s body……it looks like it has been fifteen days.

She had grown a little, becoming even livelier. Her features were exquisite and cute, and her skin was still tender like a baby’s. Although her chubby little face still appeared a little childish, she had become a young woman.

When Yuan Chu heard this, she touched her face, “Oh dear, am I all grown up? My adolescence is forever gone just like that?”

As she said this, she seemed to start regretting it. Ye Chenyuan found this funny.

“Master is still young.”

“Huh?”

Ye Chenyuan reached out to pinch Yuan Chu’s face, “No matter how old, master is still very cute.”

Yuan Chu was touched and she looked at him, “Although your words are very sweet, can you stop grabbing my face? My face is innocent, why are you all……”

Seeing the change in Ye Chenyuan’s expression, she bit her tongue. Oh no! She’d just exposed herself!

Ye Chenyuan narrowed his eyes, then he smiled.

“Master, was it really just Weisheng Ji whom you ran into?”

Yuan Chu promptly nodded her head repeatedly as she said guiltily, “I definitely only ran into him.”

Ye Chenyuan stepped forward sceptically, then he abruptly bent over to sniff her body……

Yuan Chu tensed and looked up at Ye Chenyuan’s eyes to see if she could discern anything, only to be met with his bottomless eyes that seemed to have seen through her.

No way. Hidden under her sleeves, Yuan Chu gripped her clothes nervously. She won’t be tragically exposed after only just telling a lie right?

“Master, was it really just Weisheng Ji?”

When Ye Chenyuan asked this again, Yuan Chu’s first reaction was to sniff herself. She didn’t smell like anything……she looked at the forced smile on Ye Chenyuan’s face and she bit the bullet and said.

“R-Really, it was just him!”

After a long time, or perhaps it was just a moment, Ye Chenyuan said to Venerable Li who was by the side, “Venerable Li, can you step aside for a little while?”

Venerable Li’s face fell. No way, he was all prepared to watch the show!

But sensing the killing intent that was hidden beneath Ye Chenyuan’s calm exterior, he gave in and touched his nose as he floated away, “Alright, alright. I’ll help you keep a lookout.”

Once he was gone, Yuan Chu also wanted to slip away but she hadn’t even taken two steps before Ye Chenyuan grabbed her. With a tug, he now had her in a princess carry.

Yuan Chu let out a soft gasp, “Where are you taking me?”

Ye Chenyuan didn’t reply and he brought her to a lakeside.

Yuan Chu was curled up in his arms. One moment, she was looking at the big trees, another moment she was looking at the white clouds in the sky, then she was thinking about whether she would die an even worse death if she were to come clean right now. Then, Ye Chenyuan walked into the water with her in his arms.

“Eh?” Yuan Chu looked at him with wide eyes, “I-Is my body dirty? I can just use a cleaning art, there’s no need to take a bath.”

But Ye Chenyuan continued to walk deeper in.

It was only when the water reached her waist that he finally put Yuan Chu down. He looked down at her.

“There’s the scent of another man on master’s body.”

His gaze didn’t reveal his thoughts and his voice was exceedingly gentle, “Did someone touch you? Did he hug you or…kiss you?”

Yuan Chu was stunned, “You really smelled something on me?” Why couldn’t she smell anything?

Seeing that her focus had deviated, little White Dragon and the divine sword who were in the Sky Pearl were so annoyed that they were about to throw up. Was the smell the main point? The main point was that your family’s devil is jealous! You should be refuting it right now, you should be saying that absolutely no one has touched you!

Sure enough, Ye Chenyuan’s gaze suddenly became even scarier. He touched Yuan Chu’s lip with a finger, “Here, did someone touch it?”

Yuan Chu was burned by his scorching hot finger. In the water, she took a step back, “No.”

The killing intent that was emanating from Ye Chenyuan reduced slightly, “Then where did he touch you? Who was it?”

Seeing that she could no longer hide it from him, Yuan Chu sighed.

“Alright, I’ll tell you. But you mustn’t act rashly, impulsivity is the devil!”

In fact, Ye Chenyuan had already guessed it, “It’s Jun Liuyang?”

Yuan Chu’s eyes widened, “How did you know?”

Ye Chenyuan pursed his lips and a trace of killing intent emanated from his phoenix eyes. “I smelled this scent on his body when I was fighting with him before.”
