FIMA Ch162: Becoming Feminine

Gu Siyuan immediately noticed something wrong with Xie Xueyi.

He furrowed his sword-like brows and raised his hand to touch Xie Xueyi’s slightly red cheek, “Why are you so hot?”

In a world of cultivation, fevers and colds do not exist.

“Hoo…”

Xie Xueyi suddenly let out a long breath and then grabbed his hand.

Gu Siyuan’s cold hand pressed against his flushed, hot cheek, bringing a different kind of comfort and relief.

Like finding a savior, Xie Xueyi immediately burrowed into Gu Siyuan’s arms, “Brother, I’m so hot, Brother…”

He was like a wounded little lion, rubbing against Gu Siyuan’s chest, his tone carrying an indescribable grievance.

“Brother, I’m uncomfortable…”

Gu Siyuan’s hand slowly moved down from his cheek to his neck, and Xie Xueyi’s whole body was indeed hot.

Xie Xueyi felt the moving coldness and couldn’t help but tilt his head back, his small, cute Adam’s apple sliding along his fair, slender neck.

He softly called out, “Brother, a little more, a little more, it feels so good…”

If Gu Siyuan still didn’t understand what was happening, he would be the biggest fool in the world.

He remembered the light red powder Deng Huan had thrown before he died.

Truly worthy of the Hehuan Sect…

As he thought this, he noticed his chest clothes being pulled open.

Xie Xueyi hugged his neck tightly, rubbing his body against him like a desperate little beast. The coldness of his hands and neck wasn’t enough; he needed more to relieve it.

Gu Siyuan grabbed Xie Xueyi’s chin and stared at him, “Junior Brother Xie, are you taking advantage of this to act shamelessly…”

“Brother, help me, I feel so bad.”

Xie Xueyi acted recklessly, lying on top of him, kissing his face wildly, but his voice carried a hint of grievance as if he were the one being bullied.

It seemed like the next moment, his beautiful eyes would start raining directly.

Looking at his pitiful and adorable appearance, Gu Siyuan thought: He was probably also affected by Deng Huan’s powder,

Otherwise, why would he feel hot all over?

Gu Siyuan held the person in his arms a little tighter and asked in a low, deep voice, “Junior Brother Xie, how do you want me to help?”

Xie Xueyi glared at Gu Siyuan, feeling that this person was extremely annoying, still asking questions at this moment, how irritating.

He fiercely pushed Gu Siyuan to the ground, sitting on him, and said viciously, “Hmph, you just need to lie there and not move, I won’t hurt you, just help me like this.”

“…,” Gu Siyuan.

He shouldn’t have talked nonsense with him.

“Help you, help you, I will help you properly.”

Gu Siyuan wiped the tears from Xie Xueyi’s eyes, waved his robe to reinforce the cave’s defense formation, then took out a large piece of some spirit beast’s fur from his space ring, flipped over, pressing Xie Xueyi beneath him, switching their positions.

“…,” Xie Xueyi lying on the fluffy mat.

Something felt wrong.

The sun in the secret realm rose and fell, fell and rose again.

Not knowing how many times it repeated, how long passed.

The commotion in the cave gradually subsided.

Xie Xueyi lay on the mat, his face buried in the fluffy, soft fur, looking especially pitiful.

Gu Siyuan reached out to hold him in his arms, stroking his dark hair, “What’s wrong?”

Xie Xueyi turned his head slowly, sighed at him, “I feel like this is wrong.”

Gu Siyuan grabbed his chin, his eyes full of danger, “You regret it?”

Xie Xueyi’s eyes were empty, he said leisurely, “Clearly I should be the one on top.”

Gu Siyuan’s grip on his chin loosened a bit, his thumb lightly brushing against Xie Xueyi’s red lips, smiling wryly, “I’m curious, why do you have this misconception?”

At this, Xie Xueyi became excited.

He argued confidently, “What’s wrong with that? I look so good, masculine, tall, and… big, how could I not be…”

Gu Siyuan pinched his face, staring into his eyes, “What you mentioned, I seem to have them too, and do you think you’re taller and bigger than me?”

Xie Xueyi paused.

Based on previous personal experience, it seemed the person before him was indeed a bit stronger than him.

Gu Siyuan gently stroked his head, his breath hot against his ear, his voice deep and magnetic, “But, actually, none of that matters. The key is that you feel good, right?”

Xie Xueyi’s body trembled, his white toes curling on the soft fur, “Yes, it feels good.”

Gu Siyuan’s lips curved, “Then why worry about anything else? Just like before, no, it’ll be even better. It’ll always get better.”

Xie Xueyi, with his wrist covered in marks, suddenly wrapped his arms around his neck, smiling brightly and murmuring in his ear, “But… why wait? I think now is just fine…”

Gu Siyuan pressed him down, “You’re really a seductress.”

Cultivators had excessive stamina and didn’t need to eat.

The two of them indulged in the cave for an unknown length of time.

Before leaving, Xie Xueyi took out the space ring from Ji Jinghuan’s severed hand and poured out its contents.

For a while, his eyes widened in surprise, “This guy has quite a lot of good stuff, even luckier than us. No wonder you say there’s gold in murder and arson, Brother…”

Gu Siyuan glanced indifferently, “Yes, now it’s all yours.”

Xie Xueyi laughed cheerfully, “What’s mine is yours.”

He excitedly organized the items into his own space ring, while Gu Siyuan’s gaze landed on a white egg with golden patterns.

Xie Xueyi noticed, “Hey, Brother, this egg looks different from the one Ji Jinghuan threw at us to cause trouble before…”

As he spoke, there was a sudden crisp “crack” sound as a shallow crack appeared on the egg.

Xie Xueyi was startled, “Did I scare it with my loud voice?”

Gu Siyuan couldn’t help but laugh, “What nonsense are you thinking? It’s just hatching.”

Sure enough, in the next moment, they saw a small, slender, pale figure emerging, followed by a crunching sound like eating broad beans as it devoured the entire eggshell.

Gu Siyuan and Xie Xueyi watched with great interest.

After finishing the eggshell, the little dragon stretched lazily, its tiny eyes as big as mung beans surveying the two before instinctively wrapping itself around Xie Xueyi’s wrist.

Xie Xueyi was delighted and gently stroked its smooth, tender scales.

“Brother, will this little thing follow us from now on?”

Gu Siyuan nodded, “It seems so. Didn’t it already climb onto you?”

Xie Xueyi blinked, his tone filled with pride, “I don’t even know it that well. Why did it choose me?”

Gu Siyuan replied casually, “It sees you as harmless, gentle, and nurturing?”

Despite his pride, Xie Xueyi found it hard to associate these words with himself.

Thinking of something, he suddenly turned around and glared at Gu Siyuan.

Gu Siyuan squinted, “What’s wrong?”

After hesitating for a while, Xie Xueyi finally sighed painfully, “Brother, my life is ruined because of you. I’ve seen cases like this in the demonic path. Some men, who were very masculine before, turned effeminate and delicate after being… you know. Am I turning into that? I, a proud man, am I going to become effeminate?”

“…,” Gu Siyuan.

Even with Gu Siyuan’s versatile thinking, he couldn’t follow this line of reasoning.

Besides, did you think you weren’t already delicate?

He chuckled, pulling Xie Xueyi into his arms.

Xie Xueyi leaned against him, feeling the slight vibration of his chest as he laughed, sighing, thinking this person didn’t understand his inner sorrow at all.

After some thought, he wrapped his arms around Gu Siyuan’s neck and kissed him on the face again.

Hmph, if I’m going to become effeminate, might as well kiss more to make it worth it…

…

After half a day of rest, Gu Siyuan and Xie Xueyi continued towards the inner part of the secret realm.

Along the way, they gathered some rare resources and rescued some fellow disciples from the Taixuan Immortal Sect.

There was no need to search for special food for the little ice dragon. After Gu Siyuan killed the cold flood dragon in the icy pond, he had kept its body, which served as top-quality food for the little ice dragon.

Due to the unexpected events, they had spent a few sweet days in the cave and were already late when they reached the inner part of the secret realm.

Upon arriving at the central location, they heard a loud explosion nearby.

A dazzling light appeared, looking like a mirage at first glance.

The ancient city of Xianling had emerged.

Xie Xueyi was immediately excited, “Brother, let’s go quickly. We can’t let others take all the good stuff…”

“Alright.” Gu Siyuan nodded.

The ancient city of Xianling was said to be an ancient city but was actually an expansive palace complex.

They hurried to the palace entrance, expecting everyone to be entering one after another, but instead, they found circles of people surrounding the hundred steps leading to the palace gate, without anyone daring to rush in.

Could it be that the Four Great Immortal Sects were clearing the area?

“What’s going on? Why is everyone gathered here?”

Everyone was focused on the entrance when a clear male voice suddenly came from behind.

An enthusiastic cultivator turned around and replied, “There are formations and traps on the steps. Several people who tried to break in have already died. We’re figuring out how to get past them.”

“Oh, thank you!” Xie Xueyi patted his shoulder.

The man smiled, about to say ‘you’re welcome’, but upon seeing Xie Xueyi and the man beside him, he screamed, “Ah!”

Xie Xueyi was startled, “What’s wrong, brother?”

The man pointed at Gu Siyuan, “Gu… Gu… Gu Young Master…”

Xie Xueyi nodded, smiling lightly, “No… no… don’t be afraid. Gu… Gu… Gu Young Master is a good person.”

Gu Siyuan gave him a cold glance, “You’re being mischievous again.”

Xie Xueyi grinned, his smile even brighter.

The cultivator who spoke was initially puzzled, then immediately realized that Xie Xueyi had just been teasing him, and he laughed lightly.

Because of the commotion, the crowd also noticed this area, and Gu Siyuan led Xie Xueyi inward.

As they passed, everyone instinctively stepped aside, forming a neat, clear path.

At the bottom of the steps, they saw familiar faces.

Apart from the successors of the other three great immortal sects, such as Yin Xiaojue, Zhao Tianzong, and others preparing to break through the formation, there were also demonic cultivators like Yu Haofeng and other top talents like Yan Miaomiao and Yi Qianqiu.

However, Ji Jinghuan and Xiao Xinchi were nowhere to be seen, likely avoiding them deliberately.

Everyone’s eyes turned to them, and they uttered a few words with mixed emotions, “Gu Siyuan.”

Gu Siyuan only nodded at Yan Miaomiao and Yi Qianqiu, “Is everything going smoothly?”

The two smiled, “Thanks to Senior Brother.”

Then, they proactively explained the situation about the formation on the steps to Gu Siyuan.

Because of the previous rash attempts by some to break through, everyone had some understanding of the formation. It was a classic protective array, filled with fine sword energy and occasionally spewing ancient poison.

If anyone stepped on the stairs, they would be shredded by the sword energy or corroded by the poison into a pile of bones.

At this moment, perhaps due to Gu Siyuan’s arrival, Yin Xiaojue, Zhao Tianzong, and the others, who had been waiting, began moving forward.

These individuals were all highly skilled, using various methods to swiftly and seemingly effortlessly ascend the hundred steps and enter the palace, disappearing from sight.

Watching this, some people were eager to try again.

Maybe the formation wasn’t as deadly as imagined?

However, the successive deaths of three more cultivators quickly changed the crowd’s expressions.

They immediately realized the formation was not weak; those few were just too strong.

Gu Siyuan said to Yi Qianqiu and the others, “I’m going in.”

With that, he wrapped his arm around Xie Xueyi’s waist and, with a light step, flew up the stairs like a swan.

Yan Miaomiao’s expression changed, “Senior Brother, attacking two people at once will double the attacks.”

The onlookers sighed.

Are they crazy? It’s difficult enough for one person, and they’re sending two to die?

Even if you’re Gu Siyuan, you can’t defy natural laws like this, right?

Amidst the formation, Gu Siyuan and Xie Xueyi felt its intensity more acutely.

As soon as they stepped on the first step, powerful killing intent surged towards them.

However, Gu Siyuan’s strong sword energy already surrounded them tightly. Whether it was the fine sword energy or the constantly spewing poison, they were all shredded into fragments and dust by the swirling starlight sword energy before they could come close, leaving nothing behind.

In just a moment, Gu Siyuan had taken Xie Xueyi and flown up the hundred steps, landing in front of the palace.

The onlookers below were silent.

Well, since it’s Gu Siyuan, then defying natural laws… is acceptable.

But why wasn’t I born as good-looking and lucky? If I had someone like him, I might have made it too?
