Stealing the Yuri Protagonist Harem

chapter 196 - Small Yuli?



The Sword Fairy’s eyes flickered.

Before leaving the secret realm through the connection with the Sword Ancestor’s wooden sword, she could only vaguely sense that the outside world was an ordinary, non-threatening place. However, she couldn’t determine its exact appearance.
She hadn’t expected to return to Sword Province again!
‘…Though it does make sense. After all, the secret realm was left by the Sword Ancestor, so it would logically be connected to a place related to the Sword Sect.’

As she was lost in thought, she heard a voice of confusion from behind her.
“The old site of the Sword Sect?”
Hearing Luo Wusheng’s voice, the young girl was reminded once again of the trouble she’d caused by running into him.

She suddenly began to wonder: what if the next time she fell into that state, she ended up with this guy again?
Hmm… maybe it wouldn’t be completely unacceptable— Wait, what nonsense!
Considering what happened to her in the last two episodes, what kind of thing would happen to her in the third one?

Judging from the one-month interval between the last two episodes, the time she had left…
Though she intended to develop a relationship with this guy, she didn’t want things to progress that fast!
No way, next time she had to avoid everyone!

Making up her mind, the young girl collected her thoughts and calmly explained, as if nothing had happened:
“This is where the Sword Ancestor first established the Sword Sect. However, as the Sword Sect grew and expanded, this place could no longer accommodate all the disciples. Eventually, the Sword Ancestor moved the pavilion to the current Sword Sect location.”
“This place then became the old site of the Sword Sect, leaving behind only these broken walls and ruins… Ordinary people only know where the Sword Sect is now, while only a few, including cultivators with a Nascent Soul Realm of cultivation or higher and the direct disciples of the Sect Master, know about this old site. ‘Only the direct disciples of the First Peak can pay homage to the source of the Sword Sect’—this has been a tradition passed down in the Sword Sect since ancient times.”

“When I was young and taken in as a disciple by my master, I was brought here once. Although my memories of it are vague, I can still recognize a few details.”
While Lu Yuliu spoke, her spiritual awareness subtly connected with the Sword Ancestor’s wooden sword.
Through this connection, she could faintly sense a hint of anomaly in the space around her.

However, she didn’t activate the secret realm—after what had just happened in there, she was afraid those suppressed memories might suddenly resurface and overwhelm her.
‘…Still, the fact that the Sword Ancestor left such a place in this desolate location…’
To outsiders, this place appeared to be a completely unremarkable, secluded ruin. Even members of the Sword Sect who knew about its history rarely visited, so naturally, no one would bother coming to a place filled with nothing but abandoned stones.
But now, as the true successor of the Sword Ancestor, the Sword Fairy felt as if ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) she had discovered a new treasure.

Since the Sword Ancestor was able to leave a secret realm here, could there possibly be other hidden things left behind?
As it happened, the person behind her, Luo Wusheng, had the same thought.
“If this was the exit the Sword Ancestor set up for the secret realm, could there be other undiscovered peculiarities here, similar to that secret realm?”

As Luo Wusheng spoke, his gaze swept around the area.
However, his attention was still primarily on Lu Yuliu, who stood behind him.
At this moment, he noticed a slight movement in the hand holding his.

The girl, who had stubbornly refused to let him see anything earlier, now suddenly took the initiative to step out from behind him, still holding his hand.
As he looked at her in confusion, the beautiful young lady allowed the Sword Ancestor’s wooden sword at her waist to fly out, emitting a moonlit glow.
Through the connection with the wooden sword, the Sword Fairy carefully probed the area and finally identified the only anomaly outside of the secret realm’s space.

This anomaly, however, happened to be not far in front of a certain Demon Sect Holy Saint…
Phew~ Luckily, after her earlier serious explanation, she should have returned to a state where he couldn’t notice anything unusual about her.
Although she thought this, standing beside Luo Wusheng made the sensation of their intertwined fingers even more vivid.

She stole a glance at the boy’s handsome face… Especially his lips, which had recently given her quite the emotional shock. Lu Yuliu suddenly felt flustered again, so she chose not to respond to Luo Wusheng’s words, taking another half-step forward to focus entirely on the anomaly she had sensed earlier.
Under the moonlit glow of the Sword Ancestor’s wooden sword, something seemed to be slowly taking shape.
Luo Wusheng looked on curiously as well.

‘Could this be something new left behind by the Sword Ancestor?’
Amid their faint anticipation, the object under the sword’s light gradually came into view.
Luo Wusheng was slightly taken aback.

The figure that appeared before him was not what he had anticipated.
It was the projection of a child.
A young girl, seemingly no older than ten, dressed in a martial arts outfit that was slightly oversized for her small frame. Her hair was tied into pigtails on either side of her head, and her adorable face carried a pair of resolute eyes that somehow felt familiar to him.

In the next moment, the sword’s radiance scattered, and the Sword Ancestor’s wooden sword flashed like a streak of light at the spot where the projection had appeared, slicing through the air with sword energy as though erasing all traces of its presence. It then wobbled slightly before returning to the hand of the Sword Fairy.
The sword’s tip came to rest against Luo Wusheng’s neck.
“…Forget everything you just saw, understand?”

The young girl’s face, as red as dripping blood, wore a sweet smile.
Luo Wusheng understood instantly.
“Ah, so that was Little Yuli…”

Sword energy surged, inflicting 1 point of damage on the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect.
A vein pulsed on the Sword Fairy’s forehead. Her eyes glared at the boy in front of her, and her cheeks puffed out slightly.
Sensing the rising displeasure of the person beside him—who also happened to be the original main character—Luo Wusheng wisely pondered for a moment before adopting a suitably pained expression.

“Ah—ouch, ouch, okay, I get it, I’ve already forgotten about Little Yuli—”
A small foot kicked his leg.
Hmm, perhaps due to the recoil hurting her, the kick turned into a stomp on his foot instead.

Seeing the girl’s increasingly kind smile, Luo Wusheng was about to swear his utmost sincerity when the young girl suddenly tugged hard on his hand.
Understanding her intent, Luo Wusheng obligingly leaned down, bringing his head level with the Sword Fairy’s.
Looking at his exaggeratedly cooperative demeanor, Lu Yuliu felt both exasperated and amused.

Forget it. After all, this wasn’t the first time she’d embarrassed herself in front of this guy…
“Ahem. You know, you were really cute as a kid—totally looked like a natural-born beauty—”
Sensing the slight pressure of her nails digging into the back of his hand, Luo Wusheng wisely stopped his bold experiments with danger.

The next moment, however, the young girl’s slightly gritted voice came to an abrupt halt, and she ceased all her completely ineffective actions against Luo Wusheng.
She patted her storage bag, and a few ordinary longswords fell to the ground with a clinking sound of metal striking metal.
The Sword Fairy took a deep breath.

“According to our earlier agreement, I’ll now teach you that technique I just learned from my master’s transmitted teachings.”
Her tone was as calm as if nothing had happened, but her beautiful eyes, perhaps attempting to appear fierce, remained fixed on Luo Wusheng.
This was clearly her way of offering him a way out—wasn’t it?

Luo Wusheng understood her intent. Suppressing any reckless thoughts, he hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Are you sure it’s okay to teach me your master’s technique like this?”
He had thought she wouldn’t mention this agreement again after recovering, considering that promises made in such a state didn’t really count.
“Of course it’s fine.”

Lu Yuliu glanced at Luo Wusheng, tilting her head slightly.
“All you have to do is acknowledge me as your master~”
