9 min read2,150 words

The two returned to Yuexue Peak.

The first thing Mo Shulin did when he came back was to take out the spirit stones he earned and show it to Bai Yuming.

But that doesn’t mean he’ll hand over the spirit stones to Bai Yuming.

Bai Yuming has a habit of spending too much money.

Especially after trading the heart-cleansing talismans for horse hoof imprint. He would never give Bai Yuming spirit stones for the matter regarding buying a house until Bai Yuming could give him a logical reason.

Even if Bai Yuming gave a proper reason, Mo Shulin wouldn’t give the spirit stones easily.

At least after he used part of the money for buying a house, consumption, daily necessities and saved some spirit stones, maybe then he’ll give the remaining money for Bai Yuming.

In Mo Shulin’s eyes, the hoof imprint was an useless item made from warehouses that got identified by Gong Shuo, and it should’ve reduced the price by two thirds. Even if he loses a little bit, Gong Shuo definitely hopes to replace this item with a working capital, so that more products could be sold with increased prices after New Year.

Regardless of whether Bai Yuming found something good or not, Mo Shulin felt that it would be disastrous if Bai Yuming has a family on his own.

He just kept spending money, and the money he shouldn’t spend was also used to buy something lavish.

But when they’re in public, Mo Shulin will give Bai Yuming a face.

Therefore, he no longer agrees with Bai Yuming’s local tyrant’s approach. At that time he acted efficiently and gave Gong Shuo the item. But no matter how unhappy he was, he need to do the transaction well since he and Gong Shuo are business partners.

In this Cultivator Continent that emphasizes causal cycles, the current losses may not necessarily be real losses.

Bai Yuming didn’t know that he was being despised by his little disciple with a soft, cute and milky appearance. But right now, he doesn’t care about those things and focused more on the mountain of spirit stones that have to be placed outdoor since their yellow muddy cave can’t contain the whole money.

Almost two million pieces of high-grade spirit stones.

Even if a high-grade spirit stone is only as big as a fingernail, but a million is still too much.

Originally, Bai Yuming wanted to count on how much money he got today, but faced with a pile of spirit stones that almost resemble a hill, he doesn’t really care if thousands of them have gone missing.

Although there were still some spirit stones that he didn’t got, but Mo Shulin has already earned so many spirit stones in just one morning.

This is a miracle!

Bai Yuming was so excited that he hugged and gave a big kiss on Mo Shulin’s tender little face.

Mo Shulin’s eyes were round and his face turned crimson. His flushed face became even more noticable due to his white and tender skin.

Shameless! Shameless! Shameless!

How could there be a shameless rabbit like Bai Yuming in this whole Cultivator Continent.

Even though Mo Shulin cursed in his heart, but his body didn’t move at all, letting Bai Yuming to hug him at will.

“Aiya, Little Shushu, where were you before as my disciple. You’re clearly the lucky boy that heaven gave me.” With that, Bai Yuming gave Mo Shulin another tight hug. While he tried to calm his excitement down, he unknowingly gave a gentle swing to Mo Shulin’s body.

Mo Shulin was stunned. Raising his hand mid-air, confused whether to place his hand on Bai Yuming’s back and hug him.

He forgot when was the last time he was embraced this tight.

In fact, not long after his rebirth, he was hugged by his parents over and over again before Feiyun Valley got destroyed.

It’s just that the hug before isn’t the same as the hug at this time.

Mo Shulin couldn’t tell the difference, but Bai Yuming’s hug seemed to be able to pierce his body and embrace his soul, stroking the bitter, desolate and battered heart.

“Why are you crying?” Bai Yuming noticed that his neck was wet, only to find that Mo Shulin was silently crying.

Mo Shulin blinked, still pondering Bai Yuming’s words.

When he reached out and touched his cheek, Mo Shulin realized that he was really crying.

Too unusual.

How can he cry?

Mo Shulin shook his head, he didn’t know why he was crying.

Mo Shulin was panicked, he tried to wipe the tears off from his face, worried that Bai Yuming would hate crying children.

But not only he didn’t wipe his face clean, but it seems that the more he wipe, a piece of his heart would collapse, causing tears to flow down uncontrollably.

Bai Yuming was a child born in a happy family so he couldn’t understand Mo Shulin’s emotions. He could only feel that Mo Shulin was in a bad mood.

He doesn’t know why Mo Shulin was crying, Bai Yuming felt helpless even after he said comforting words.

Bai Yuming hugged Mo Shulin into his arms again and gently stroked Mo Shulin’s back. Prepared that his clothes would be wet after he let Mo Shulin wept.

This silent gentle warmth penetrated Mo Shulin’s heart. His tears has stopped, but he didn’t utter a sound, wanting to preserve Bai Yuming’s tenderness for a while.

If he could, he wished he could indulge in Bai Yuming’s affection for the rest of his life, being cherished and cared for unconditionally.

It’s a pity that he was reborn and missed it when he was still in his pure and simple years.

Now he’s only pretending to be like a child, no longer a real boy.

Mo Shulin calmly gave himself some time indulging in Bai Yuming’s warmth for a stick of incense. After this time passed, Mo Shulin left Bai Yuming’s embrace.

“Thank you, Master, the disciple is much better.” Mo Shulin pursed his lips as he spoke.

He still has a lot of selfish desires, but he has to remind himself that enough is enough.

Indulgence and hope will kill people’s will. His revenge to report the ruined Feiyun Valley hasn’t been done, and his relatives souls have become the Demon Smiling Whitehead’s weapon.

Thinking of the pain his parents may suffer, Mo Shulin’s heart became even heavier. But compared to his previous life, at least their souls are still there, and Mo Shulin still has hope.

Suddenly, his arms were heavy.

Mo Shulin couldn’t imagine that Bai Yuming turned into a rabbit and jumped into his arms.

He felt a heavy pressure when Bai Yuming jumped onto him without saying a word. Mo Shulin needed his arms to embrace him, and exhausted his entire body just to barely hug the fat rabbit.

His master should really lose weight!

He didn’t even glance at the clothes on the ground that he would need to tidy up later.

“Come on, hurry up. I’ll lull you up. You’ll feel happier.” The fat rabbit doesn’t recognize his weight at all, finding a comfortable position in Mo Shulin’s arms. “I’ll tell you, My fur is invaluable. Every time you touch it, you’ve made a huge profit.”

At this moment, Mo Shulin felt he’s holding a sweet heavy mound.

But he just didn’t want to let go, the corners of his mouth kept rising, while his heart relaxed a lot due to the fat rabbit’s words, and he didn’t feel so uncomfortable anymore.

“Come on. Come on.” When the fat rabbit saw that the little disciple was still embracing him, he couldn’t help but move his chubby body.

“Master, don’t move, I won’t be able to hold it anymore.” Mo Shulin said in a fear.

It wasn’t easy to hold such a fat rabbit with his small body, but now the fat rabbit is still jumping in his arms, making him to stagger twice and fell to the ground due to unstable center of gravity.

But before landing, Mo Shulin subconsciously twisted his body, letting the fat rabbit fell on top of his body, and he’s the one that got pressed down.

The fat rabbit himself doesn’t know how heavy he is.

No matter how heavy he is, he’s still a fat rabbit. And this fat rabbit missed the days when he would play and laugh around with his friends.

Therefore, fat rabbit naturally accepted the little disciple’s courtesy, and simply fell onto the little disciple’s arms, planning to go with the flow and lie down on the snow to talk with each other.

But the Mo Shulin at this time isn’t the Demon Lord Mo Shulin.

The ten-year-old body got hit by the gravitational acceleration of a small steel ball-like fat rabbit into his chest, almost out of breath, almost went to ghost path cultivation.

“…Mas…ter…get up…” Every time Mo Shulin said a word, the air in his chest was squeezed by the fat rabbit on his body.

“Hey.” Bai Yuming noticed Mo Shulin’s state and rolled to the side of the snow in a panic. Because he was too heavy, almost half of his body was sunk in the snow. He need to stand up and stretch his rabbit head to see Mo Shulin.

Mo Shulin slowly catch up his breath, as every breath gave him pain.

The rabbit’s head occupies one-third the area of sight. After seeing that he was okay, his ears stood up, and his three-lobed mouth was slightly cracked with joy. With a sigh, the whole rabbit relaxed and leaned against Mo Shulin’s neck.

The rabbit fur, which is as snow-white, sticks to his neck, it was more comfortable than any scarf since the fur was soft and also carries the rabbit’s own temperature.

But the fat rabbit isn’t self-aware.

“You’re still too weak, can’t even hold me.” The fat rabbit grumbled and patted Mo Shulin’s shoulder with his little rabbit’s paws. Meaning “you can’t do it, brother”.

“Yes. Master, can you accompany me to exercise tomorrow?” Mo Shulin’s head tilted slightly, with a distinct light in his eyes.

“No problem, give it to master.” The fat rabbit promised, patting his chest with his rabbit paws.

“Then I’ll run tomorrow morning and call master, it’s a deal.” Mo Shulin stretched out his hand toward the fat dabbit, obviously wanting the him to high-five as a proof of alliance.

“Ah, ah? Morning run?!” The fat rabbit thought that Mo Shulin would go out for a morning run just after dawn, his plump body was scared to the point it became thin.

Mo Shulin didn’t speak, but quietly stares at the fat rabbit.

The fat rabbit rubbed the meat on belly, fell into a struggle.

Since accepting Mo Shulin, Bai Yuming knew that he doesn’t look like what a master should be.

In his life in the other world, he was just a college student who only knew how to call his mother when things got hard. After arriving in this world by accident, Bai Yuming didn’t have the necessary ability to survive, but relying on his cultivation base alone by not needing to eat, and pass his life in impoverishment.

A person like him, how can he have any skills to raise a child.

When Mo Shulin begged, Bai Yuming squinted his eyes, but only saw with Mo Shulin’s little face flushed from the cold. Mo Shulin, who got embarrassed, didn’t feel dissatisfied or complained after hearing his master’s cold words.

Poor, sincere heart, and upright in concept.

Bai Yuming was relieved because he didn’t want such a good boy to fall to the outer sect and endure the tragic life depicted in the story.

But after that, he didn’t seem to have done anything remarkable for Mo Shulin.

On the contrary, Mo Shulin wasn’t only well-behaved like a child next door, but also earned so much money that solved their housing problem.

Because of the rabbit form, the spirit stone hill seemed even more majestic.

Fat rabbit felt that he should’ve established such a majestic image in Mo Shulin’s heart just like this spirit stone hill.

“Okay. You’ll wake me up tomorrow.” The fat rabbit gritted his teeth and patted Mo Shulin’s palm with his paw.

The two reached a consensus to get up early and run in the morning.

Taking advantage of the right time, Mo Shulin asked a question: “Master, what’s so special about the White Horse Demon King calligraphy?”

“That’s a good item.” Speaking of this, fat rabbit suddenly became excited, he dug out his storage bag from the pile of fallen clothes.

The author has something to say:

Mo Shulin: This is our first time embracing each other.

Fat rabbit: …

Mo Shulin : Also the first time being pressed down by you.

Fat rabbit poked his own round belly.
