Release the Heroine, Let Me Handle This

Chapter 81: A Hint of Yuri in the Air

Hei Tong seemed a bit fearful, her eyes turning to Ye Wenxin for guidance.

"It's just a qiankun pouch, don't worry, you won't get pregnant," Ye Wenxin whispered teasingly into Hei Tong's ear. Having been teased by Xiao Zhang lately, she realized how enjoyable it was to playfully torment others.

Of course, Ye Wenxin's remark would only make it more challenging for Gu Aotian to pursue Hei Tong. But considering Gu Aotian was the protagonist, no matter how much Ye Wenxin meddled, Hei Tong would eventually become part of his harem. Ye Wenxin couldn't help but relish in the chaos.

Poor Gu Aotian, unknowingly adorned with metaphorical yuri-like "green hats," continued to enjoy a pleasant chat with Ye Wenxin, discussing their latest thieving escapades, drifting further from the typical hero's path.

As the three of them strolled around, Gu Aotian's red robes as a true disciple made him stand out, while Hei Tong, a delicate beauty, didn't wear the Cangyu Sect's attire. Yet, no one found it odd.

Cangyu Sect, being the leading sect among the top ten, attracted many visitors. Everyone assumed Hei Tong was a young lady from a distinguished clan, not realizing she was the notorious bandit plaguing the sect.

Ye Wenxin's reputation among the outer disciples had soared lately, especially with Gu Aotian, a man, in their midst. The attention they drew was intense.

Gu Aotian became a target for many, yet it only fueled his determination, and Ye Wenxin felt proud. For her, this was the perfect opportunity for Gu Aotian.

Thus, Ye Wenxin deliberately stayed close to Gu Aotian, even showing affection in the dining hall. Hei Tong didn't like it, but a stern glance from Ye Wenxin silenced her, turning her frustration into hunger.

Young Gu Aotian was flustered, his heart racing, unaware that Ye Wenxin's 'affection' was digging a pit for him, watching as he willingly leapt into it.

"Wenxin, do you want to have children with Gu Aotian?" Hei Tong questioned angrily once Gu Aotian left, displeased with Ye Wenxin's closeness to others.

She felt oddly jealous, as if her favorite treasure was being taken away.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Brother Aotian only wants to have children with you, so I'm just checking him out for you," Ye Wenxin replied, feigning seriousness, while Hei Tong showed disgust. "I treated him as a subordinate, who knew he would..."

With Ye Wenxin's explanation, Hei Tong's fondness for Gu Aotian plummeted. Ye Wenxin was at a loss, unsure how to explain that she might become part of Gu Aotian's harem.

"Well, it's only natural; after all, you're a particularly beautiful spirit beast," Ye Wenxin continued, forced to speak nonsense. Unexpectedly, her compliment made Hei Tong sway with happiness.

Her dark eyes sparkled, paired with her delicate features, making her unbearably cute.

"So that's how you see me, Wenxin. But I'm a noble spirit beast; don't think I'll agree just because you compliment me," Hei Tong swayed, lowering her head shyly.

Ye Wenxin was baffled but sensed she might have a chance to form a contract with Hei Tong.

Though Hei Tong was greedy and playful, her flight speed was unmatched. Acquiring Hei Tong would indeed be a boon.
