Want to Ascend? Then Fall in Love

Chapter 10 – So So So Cute!

—

This was really going overboard.

He had just been held for the whole day, but only after he was released, was the task announced. This jade scroll really wanted to die.

However, in reality, the jade scroll was being wronged here… It had previously been frightened to the point that it had overextended its abilities and had no strength left at all, so how could it release more tasks then? It just so happened that the ‘Enter the Secret Land of the Setting Moon’ task had been completed, so it became possible for it to release the next task. 

In conclusion, this all boiled down to the fact that Shen Qingxian shouldn’t have scared it….

Of course, who would dare to say those words? Anyway, the jade scroll didn’t have the guts to say them. Deftly, it continued laying stiffly in its spot, trying its best to minimize its sense of existence. 

The sky lightened a little, and everyone soon woke up. 

Su Yu greeted Shen Qingxian, “Zhao Yan, eat something ba!”

Shen Qingxian’s attractive eyebrows wrinkled slightly when he was told to eat.

Su Yu coaxed him, “Eat something ma, how can you have any strength if you don’t eat?” Saying that, he took out a pile of things from his bag of holding.

The food that Zeng Ziliang had prepared for them was very good, and was considered top-tier among cultivators who roamed around outside. 

But no matter how top-tier it was, it all became just crumbs from a meal in Shen Qingxian’s eyes.

Putting aside the fact that he hadn’t eaten any common food for a long time, he had never ever tasted such things even when he was still required to eat food.

Unfortunately, after entering the secret realm, he couldn’t change or vanish these things at will. And when it came to moving these things somewhere else or casting an illusion, none of these could be performed at this stage of cultivation.

Did he really have to eat? Shen Qingxian remained silent.

Su Yu thought his little friend was really cute. Delicate and picky with his food, sure enough, he was without doubt, a young master. 

Thankfully Shen Qingxian didn’t have his divine consciousness on right now, or else sadly, little Su Yu might be done for. 

At this time, Gu Jianshen rescued him. “Young Master is not in good health and doesn’t dare to eat just anything.”

So the characteristic of having a sickly body can be used like this. Shen Qingxian was mildly satisfied. 

Su Yu immediately piped up, “Is that so? Then…then what should Zhao Yan eat?”

Gu Jianshen said, “This subordinate has long since been prepared for this.”

Saying this, he took out a shiny golden colored bag of holding. It was incredibly golden, the kind of shiny gold color that could blind people. 

Su Yu complained inwardly: This taste, tch tch…

Shen Qingxian didn’t say anything. Instead, in a reserved fashion, he just glanced at it three or four times, with eyes wide open. 

Gu Jianshen magically pulled things out of the bag of holding.

One, two, three, four…..

Su Yu’s eyes widened, and he was left stunned. 

A scarlet carpet embroidered with silver thread, tables and chairs made of orange jade and inlaid with bright rubies… Even the tableware was made up of blinding golden plates and silver chopsticks….

This style was completely bling-bling!

Shen Qingxian’s eyes also slightly widened at this sight, and he didn’t say anything for a long time. 

Su Yu thought Zhao Yan was stunned by this bomb like he was, so he complimented in a roundabout way, “Haha, it’s very…very bright…”

Apart from this adjective, he didn’t know what to say. However, Qingshen-dage was a good person, and he shouldn’t disdain others’ taste, so he could only praise it reluctantly….

Gu Jianshen reached out gracefully. “Young Master, if you please.”

Shen Qingxian didn’t move.

Su Yu thought he disliked it. After all, both of them had spent time on Wanxiu Mountain. That beautiful place was comparable to an immortal realm on earth, so how could these common things compare to that? Poor Qingshen-dage’s vision was too narrow; he thought that such things were the best, and obviously wanted to use the best to serve the holy son.

Thinking in this way, Su Yu couldn’t bear to make Qingshen-dage, who was so loyal to his lord, sad, so he said to Shen Qingxian, “Zhao Yan, let’s go sit…sit ba.” Ah, his eyes hurt even as he speaks. 

Shen Qingxian nodded stiffly.

When Su Yu saw him act like this, his heart grew warm. They really were a good pair of master and servant, who understood, loved, and made allowances for one another. 

Jade scroll: Boy, you’re not blind, are you?!

In fact, how could Shen Qingxian disdain any of this? How could he reject this? What was there not to like? He was currently undergoing a great test, and was trying hard not to “kill someone and seize their treasure.”

After sitting down, Su Yu felt that his eyes were in even more pain. 

Opposite the shining and bright golden and red table was seated a cool, light, wispy, young willow boy. 

The huge contrast left Su Yu almost unable to open his eyes!

Hang in there! Su Yu told himself: Even Zhao Yan can hold on, so I have to hold on too! I can’t hurt Qingshen-dage’s feelings, nor can I let Zhao Yan’s hard efforts go to waste!

Setting aside the crazy imagination of the little peach blossom, let us now focus on His Honorable Lordship. 

Shen Qingxian’s expression remained unchanged, but if you looked more carefully, you could catch a glimpse of the bright light hidden in his dark eyes. It glittered beautifully.

Gu Jianshen’s thin lips raised slightly as he continued to take things from the bag of holding.

Their meal followed the tableware.

Gu Jianshen was well prepared, and the food he took out was exquisite and delicious, still carrying the warmth of food coming right off the stove. Obviously, there was a universe in the bag of holding. 

Dish after dish of delicious delicacies were placed on the table, and Su Yu, whose eyes were still hurting from the blinding light, couldn’t help swallowing his saliva.

It looked great! The smell was so fragrant!

The food was delicious…really delicious. After all, it had been prepared by the head chef of Heart Palace, and this meal was one of its kind among the expanse of the heavenly dao and Heart Domain. 

Gu Jianshen poured Shen Qingxian some black tea. “Young Master, please take your time.”

He was very careful and considerate, and even Shen Qingxian felt quite comfortable right now. 

He couldn’t get used to eating worldly things, but this table was full of food made using excellent spiritual ingredients. The delicacies cooked by the master chef, whether in color, taste, or smell, were top-shelf, and the whole meal was really impeccable. 

After Su Yu took a bite, his whole being was left stunned…..

“This is really too delicious ba!” Su Yu looked at Gu Jianshen, his little face full of surprise. “How can there be such delicious food?!”

No wonder Shen Qingxian was picky about food. After eating such delicious food, how could he stomach eating the things in his bag of holding!

Shen Qingxian ate a round golden millet ball. Su Yu looked at him, and his eyes were full of: Delicious right, delicious right, isn’t it really good?!

Shen Qingxian said mildly, “It’s alright.”

Su Yu: “!”

He also picked up a millet ball and put it in his mouth. He felt that he was about to ascend!

With a mellow fragrance, it melted in his mouth. It felt like countless flowers had started blooming in his mouth, delicate and nimble, completely unmatched!

“It’s so delicious!” Only praise was leaving Su Yu’s mouth now.

After eating for a while, he seemed to think of something. He turned and looked at Gu Jianshen. “Qingshen-dage, did you make all these?”

Gu Jianshen nodded. “Yes.”

Su Yu was about to worship him to death.

Shen Qingxian glanced at him. The meaning of that glance could be roughly translated into two words: completely shameless. 

Gu Jianshen pretended not to see that. Anyway, if he said he made it, the imperial chef in his palace didn’t dare to refute it. 

After eating, Gu Jianshen said, “Young Master, please wait a moment. I’ll clean up.”

Su Yu hurriedly offered, “Let me help you.”

Gu Jianshen replied, “This small matter doesn’t need Young Master Su Yu worrying about it.”

Su Yu still wanted to say something, but Shen Qingxian grabbed his attention and told him, “It’s alright. Let him clean up ba, he’s used to it.”

Fortunately, the people of the Heart Domain weren’t here, otherwise they would all immediately put their lives on the line to fight desperately against Shen Qingxian.

Their noble majesty, their supreme emperor, their lifelong idol— had now actually become a servant used to doing such miscellaneous tasks??

Su Yu drew close to Shen Qingxian and said, “Qingshen-dage is really a good person.”

Shen Qingxian gave a noncommittal response.

Someone who killed people like flies— Could the demon lord of the Heart Domain who cultivated the bloody dao even be called a good person?

The little peach blossom’s eyes really needed to be cured.

Su Yu shivered inexplicably. He felt, as if at this moment, he was seeing His Honorable Lordship….

After Gu Jianshen finished cleaning up, it was time for everyone to resume their “adventure”.

Su Yu said excitedly, “I keep feeling like I have more strength after eating.” He flexed his small arm and felt that it was filled with strength.

It wasn’t that he just felt that way, but that he was definitely at full strength. 

Everything they just ate was made of rare spiritual ingredients, and everything they drank contained fine wine; ordinary mortals would become enlightened with just a taste. Thanks to the fact that the little peach blossom was born on Wanxiu Mountain and had developed an all-souls body after achieving enlightenment, otherwise he really wouldn’t have been able to consume all those precious spiritual foods.

Shen Qingxian was still thinking about the task on the jade scroll.

Seeing that he wasn’t moving, Gu Jianshen pretended to be respectful and jokingly asked, “Young Master, do you need this subordinate to help?”

Yesterday, he had only managed to pick up this lordly “young master” after setting a trap for him, so he thought it would be impossible to touch him today.

Just as he was thinking that, the little boy with red lips and white teeth raised his chin and said, “I’m tired.”

Gu Jianshen: “……”

Shen Qingxian stretched out his arms with a calm expression. 

Su Yu, who was watching from the side, was overwhelmed by the cuteness. So so so cute!

Gu Jianshen’s eyes deepened, and within the sky blue appeared points of red, like fireworks. He asked him, “Does the young master want this subordinate to hold you?”

Shen Qingxian was very frank. “En.”

Who could have known that the man who had refused to let go yesterday even when his arms were about to break decided to stir up trouble today. 

Gu Jianshen said in a warm voice, “You’ve just finished your meal, so it’s better if you walk for a bit ba.”

Shen Qingxian refused. “Don’t want to.”

Gu Jianshen’s lips were full of smiles. “Young Master, don’t be willful. This subordinate is just thinking of your body.”

Shen Qingxian narrowed his eyes. “Do you still know your place?”

Gu Jianshen: “……”

Although Shen Qingxian was shorter than him by a full section, his imposing air was still masterfully surrounding him. He looked up and scolded, “Servants should obey their master’s orders. Do you still need me to teach you this?”

Su Yu, who was startled, was about to come forward to smooth things over, only for Gu Jianshen to lean over slightly and pick Shen Qingxian up. His voice was low and full of doting indulgence. “As the Holy Son orders.”

Shen Qingxian snorted coldly, and his small arms wrapped around his neck.

Gu Jianshen paused. Shen Qingxian had already cutely leaned against him and closed his eyes. “I’m going to sleep.”

Gu Jianshen lowered his head to look at his pale and tender face, and slender eyelashes. What appeared in his mind was a man who was high and far above all others, with unparalleled elegance.

He drew close to him, his mouth nearly plastered against his ear, and whispered in a voice that made people’s hearts quiver, “Shishu, are you seducing me?”

The author has something to say:

Hahaha

Saw a sister say that this piece was similar to “If you don’t fall in love, you’ll die” Originally this was a piece about brothers who shared a setting, but with the same thing happening to two people with different personalities, there will be different chemical reactions

Personally, I think Shen Qingxian is too different from Ye Chen, Gu Jianshen and Ren Jing, so the development is also very different.

Juurensha: I have to agree with the little peach blossom, too cute!

Noks: The only thing that both SQX and the jade scroll ever come to an agreement on: Su Yu needs to get his eyes treated!
