CHAPTER 184
Little Sister Liu
============================================================
"Little one, what's your name?"
The Immortal Lord seemed not yet rested. He rolled over while resting his head on the First Lady's lap, apparently searching for a comfortable position before opening his small mouth.
"Flower-Seeking Willow Immortal, Tyrant—call me whichever you prefer."
"You're so small, and you're a Divine Lord too? Then Shiyu is the thief crying thief Divine Lord~"
The Immortal Lord curled his lips, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth. Only now did he realize this fellow merely bore a passing resemblance to that certain adult.
Without Fox Demon King blood, not a demigod's body, no authority bestowed—just a lucky, stunning beauty.
But~
She adored gorgeous beauties~
That body, nearly flawless like that noble one's, had always made her drool~
"Wait, you said your name is Shiyu?" The Immortal Sovereign finally caught on. "Li Shiyu?"
Li Shiyu nodded. Oh? This youngster actually recognized her!
"That's right, it's this Immortal Sovereign!"
Seeing Li Shiyu's not-so-bright expression, the Immortal Sovereign smirked. That look on the adult's face was genuinely hard to keep a straight face about.
But if the sarcastic Su Muchan or Su Cheng were here, they’d surely tease that the two of them were equally clueless—this Immortal Sovereign didn’t seem much smarter than Li Shiyao.
If there was a difference, it was that the Immortal Lord appeared both foolish and wicked…
As for Li Shiyao, she was the type who looked like she'd be easy to sell~
But anyone familiar with the pair knew they were both sharp as tacks—the kind who always took advantage without ever getting the short end of the stick!
"So, you're Su Cheng's second disciple, right? Did she teach you how to play 'Snowfall'?"
The Immortal Lord suddenly remembered this matter. Truthfully, these days had been quite pleasant—except for the fact that her Snowflake Plucking technique had taught someone to become such a disgrace!
Li Shiyu was fortunate, being Su Cheng's second disciple. Teaching her a few tricks wouldn't hurt.
But as for how to teach it, the Immortal Master only knew one method.
"No, Shiyu has only seen Master and Senior Sister use this technique. Master never formally taught it to her."
The Immortal Master thought to herself, What's going on here? Bullying the honest ones, huh?
How is Li Shiyu any worse than Ye Qinghan? How can a master show such favoritism?
"Does that bastard Su Cheng dislike you?" The Flower-Seeking Immortal was always like this.
Truth be told, this was the first time in her life Li Shiyu had heard someone curse so viciously…
"Um… Master treats Shiyu very well. Senior Sister said Master always gives Shiyu what suits her best."
Only then did the Immortal Lord's temper slightly ease. Otherwise, she would have jotted this down in her notebook to settle the score later!
And precisely because of this, Li Shiyu had narrowly escaped disaster. Otherwise, given the Immortal Lord's teaching methods, she'd likely be reduced to tears within five minutes.
"Stop listening to her bullshit. That bastard Su Cheng treats everyone like that. That fucking piece of shit, he's just a fucking asshole. You don't know, that fucking piece of shit."
Li Shiyao's wise little eyes grew even clearer. Truthfully, she didn't understand a word, but judging by the Immortal Sovereign's expression, she knew she definitely wasn't praising their Master…
"You know my master too?"
"Not just know. There's nothing about your Master I don't know."
Li Shiyao looked utterly astonished. She never imagined the child before her and her Master were old acquaintances!
"Does my master have children?"
"No."
Li Shiyao fell deep in thought…
"Then does my master have a husband?"
"No."
"Then can Shiyu be your husband?"
"You'll have to ask your Master."
"Shiyáo wants to have a child with Master~"
"Oh?"
"Senior Sister has already eaten one child, and Shiyu wants to eat one too!"
"Sounds good. If you have two, give me one to try."
"Sure thing~"
Divine conversation. The Immortal Lord merely curved his lips in a smile—whether at her innocence or her foolishness, no one could tell.
"Truthfully, joining Lingxian Hall might not be the best thing for you."
"Is that so? Shiyu doesn't quite understand, but Shiyu really likes Lingxian Hall. Master and Senior Sister are both very kind to Shiyu, and they both like Shiyu~"
The Flower-Seeking Immortal Lord wore an exasperated yet indulgent expression. How could one reason with such a stubborn little devil? He couldn't fathom how to explain why this apparent happiness wasn't actually a blessing.
"Gaining something is certainly cause for joy, but when you possess certain precious things, you should begin to consider whether you can bear to lose them."
Li Shiyu nodded blankly, a hint of agreement flickering in her eyes as if she truly understood~
"You didn't understand, did you?"
Li Shiyao nodded again, uttering a soft "Mm-hmm."
The Immortal Lord couldn't help but chuckle. This was far too profound for the Second Madam to grasp.
She recalled a time long past when that noble figure had warned her repeatedly to stay away from Su City.
Yet she, like this Second Madam, had been utterly oblivious.
Bliss lay before her eyes. She craved power rivaling the gods, sought authority second only to the ruler, and desired her words to carry weight that no one could ignore!
She had clearly gotten what she wanted, and the man had even given her more.
Heh, wasn't this just like Li Shiyao?
As for the outcome? That remains to be seen…
Hmph, perhaps there's no need to wait. It's merely the inevitable outcome. The only question is whether this Second Madam can accept it.
But even if she couldn't accept it, what could she do?
"Would the Immortal Lord care to be Shiyu's sister?"
Truthfully, aside from those old friends, she hasn't called anyone "sister" in ages.
"Why?"
"Shiyao already has two sisters. She wants a little sister. Why don't you be her sister?"
"What's in it for me?"
The Immortal Sovereign found the idea rather amusing—it had been ages since she'd experienced anything like this.
Li Shiyu pondered for a long time. It seemed she didn't have much to give her little sister. All her treasures were gifts from her Master, and she couldn't give those away.
"If anyone bullies you, Sister Shiyu will beat them up for you. How about that?"
The Immortal Sovereign couldn't stop laughing, for Li Shiyu's expression was utterly sincere.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true! Don't let my slim build fool you—I'm incredibly strong! I can take on ten opponents single-handedly!"
This made Li Shiyu incredibly proud. That unbeatable little expression on her face made her seem like she ruled the world!
Truth be told, Li Shiyu had every reason to be cocky. Barring any unfair advantages, her strength was enough to crush most prodigies.
"If you're so formidable, then this Immortal Sovereign shall henceforth call you Sister Shiyu, then?"
"Sure thing~ Little Liu~"
What a joyful day! Today, Li Shiyao gained not only a sister but also a little sister!
Ever since joining Lingxian Hall, her circle of friends had only grown—how wonderful!
First, her number one senior sister in the world, then Sister Dongfang, and now two more Immortal Sovereign sisters!
Truthfully, Li Shiyu also wanted to be friends with Shangguan Rou and Su Muchan. However, she sensed a certain distance between them and her senior sister. Though Shiyu didn't think they were bad people, there was still a noticeable gap.
Still, Li Shiyu was making a genuine effort to build friendships—she couldn't rush things!
The Sixth Elder had said making friends was no easy feat—it required sincerity and patience!
"Um… Can we change how you address me? Just call me Tyrant."
"Doesn't it sound nice? Shiyu thinks 'Tyrant' isn't as good as 'Little Liu.' What cute little girl would be called 'Tyrant'?"
"Fine, whatever makes you happy."
