Chapter 2389: Was There Something Hidden in This Yard?
The man in peach pink clothes was leaving a yard. Ning Shu quickly hid and watched him leave.
Ning Shu looked at the back of the man, who had a graceful appearance. His aura was indifferent, completely unlike every other disciple of the Yinyang Sect that Ning Shu encountered before.
After the man left, Ning Shu came out of the shadows. She initially just wanted to take a look inside the yard.
However, another man appeared, opened the gate of the yard, and entered.
It felt a little inexplicable to her. Was there something hidden in this yard?
Why did another handsome man go in?
Ning Shu crossed the wall and carefully entered the yard. The yard was full of flowers and there was a swing. This swing was made of ropes woven from cloth strips of various colors.
This was probably a young girl’s yard.
Ning Shu was clinging to the wall. She didn’t dare to let out a sound as she listened to the movement in the room.
From inside, came the voices of a man and a woman.
The woman’s voice was clear and moving. She was calling the man her senior brother.
Ning Shu was stuck in the corner and didn’t dare to look into the room.
She only silently listened to the voices of the people in the room.
The man clearly doted on the woman a lot. He gave the woman some gifts, and the woman thanked him happily.
Ning Shu was a little surprised. It was the first time she saw a normal woman in the Yinyang Sect that wasn’t turned into a mindless cultivation furnace.
The man talked with the girl inside the room for a while, then exhorted that she shouldn’t go outside and should stay inside this courtyard. No matter what, he said, she shouldn’t go outside because the people outside would hurt her.
The girl readily agreed, asking the man to visit her often and bring fun things.
Ning Shu frowned. This was very obviously a house arrest, yet the girl seemed to not realize it.
After the man left, Ning Shu lay down by the window.
What she saw was a very luxuriously decorated room with bead curtain jade and jade screen flowers. It was a house filled with jewels and luxury, like a palace!
A maid stood in the room, guarding a girl.
The girl was wearing a brocade dress with simple but delicate ornaments on her head. She was sitting on a chair, holding a windmill in her hand and playing with it. The windmill whirred.
Her expression was pure, and her brows made her look very innocent.
The most important thing was that she looked young and somewhat similar to Yi Liang.
Ning Shu’s heart jumped abruptly. Could she be Yi Rou?
Yi Rou was really in the Yinyang Sect! But it looked like she wasn’t made into a cultivation furnace. Instead, she seemed to be treated extremely well.
Ning Shu wanted to jump into the house, but she suddenly heard the sound of the door of the yard opening.
A man’s voice came from the room. It was probably another person because the voice was different from the previous man’s voice.
The man also called the girl his junior sister and brought her some toys.
Ning Shu: …
What was going on!???
Was Yinyang Sect seriously teaching Yi Rou cultivation? However, looking at Yi Rou’s current situation, she was obviously a canary trapped in a gilded cage.
The smile and teasing were obvious in the man’s tone as he spoke to Yi Rou for a while until he left.
Ning Shu didn’t try to rush into the room this time. Instead, she waited to see if anyone else was coming.
Who knew why Yi Rou wasn’t made into a cultivation furnace? Regardless, this was obviously the best situation they could hope for.
After she waited for a while, it seemed like nobody else was coming. Ning Shu waited until the maid who was guarding the house left, then jumped into the house.
The girl was startled. However, when she saw the dirty Ning Shu, she calmed down. Instead, she innocently asked, “How did you get so dirty?
“Let me wash you!” the girl stretched out her hand to hug Ning Shu.
Ning Shu jumped away and asked, “What’s your name?”
“Ah! You can speak?” The girl was surprised and the volume of her voice jolted up. The maid asked from outside the house, “Holy Maiden, what’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing. I want to sleep for a while. Don’t come in,” the girl said to the maid outside of the house.
