Chapter 3 — My Destiny Is Seventh Brother

I blinked: "So you waited three years?"

“Yes,” he shrugged, “Until today, when you pointed your finger at me.”

His eyes suddenly became profound, making my heart pound.

"Little junior sister, why did you choose me? Is it really just intuition?"

I squeezed my teacup tightly, not knowing how to answer. Reminder text: 【Don't tell him the truth, just say that you feel a special aura】

“I… feel a special aura from you.” I said in a low voice, "Different from other senior brothers."

Tiet Mac's eyes flashed with light, then returned to calm.

“Interesting.” He took a sip of tea, "It seems you are the person we've been waiting for."

The sound of birds singing suddenly rang out outside the door, clear and melodious. The afternoon sunlight tilted, shining a layer of light yellow light on the room. Tiet Mac stood up, walked in front of me, knelt down, and looked straight into my eyes.

“To Li,” he called my name for the first time, “It's not urgent about dual cultivation.”

His breath gently caressed my face, carrying the faint scent of tea.

“Let's get to know each other first, okay?”

I nodded, my heart beating like a drum. He smiled, reached out and gently stroked my hair.

“You have a very special scent.”

My ears are hot: "Really?"

“Yes,” he nodded, “Like peach blossoms in spring.”

Suddenly, footsteps sounded outside the door. Tiet Mac's face changed, he immediately returned to his disheveled appearance, and his actions also became lazier.

“Seventh Junior Brother, are you here?” It's the voice of the Third Sister.

Tiet Mac winked at me and lowered his voice: "Cooperate with me." Then loudly replied: "Yes, the door is unlocked." Third Sister pushed the door open, saw us, and her eyes flashed with surprise.

“Little Junior Sister is indeed here.” She smiled and said, "Master asked me to come see how you two interact."

Tiet Mac lazily leaned back in his chair: "As you can see, sister, very good." The Third Sister looked around and frowned: "This place is too simple, how can we practice dual cultivation?"

"Don't worry, sister," Tiet Mac smiled brightly, "I will take good care of little sister."

Third Sister looked half-confident and half-skeptical, turned to me and asked: "Little sister, do we need to change places?" I shook my head: "This place is very good, quiet." The Third Sister seemed surprised, but only gave a few words of advice and left. As soon as the door closed, Tiet Mac immediately returned to his real appearance.

“Quick response.” He looked at me appreciatively.

I couldn't help but ask: "Why do you have to hide it from Senior Sister?" Tiet Mac's face became serious: "There are many eyes and ears in the sect, we have to be on guard." He went to the corner of the wall, moved a brick, and took out a small wooden box.

“This is yours.”

In the box is a transparent, teardrop-shaped jade pendant.

“This is…”

“The jade pendant protects the heart,” he said softly, “It can block a blow from a Jin Dan monk.”

I opened my eyes wide: "Such a precious thing..."

“Receive it.” He didn't say much, just put it on for me himself, "If you choose me, I will protect you."

As soon as the jade pendant comes into contact with your skin, you feel a warm current flowing into your heart. Tiet Mac's fingers gently brushed my neck, making me tremble.

“From today,” he said softly, “You are mine.”

The jade that protects the heart on my chest warms slightly, as if there is life. Tiet Mac's fingers still rested on the back of my neck, warmth passing through my skin. When we don't know what to do How to respond to his words "You are mine", suddenly a new line appeared: 【Little fairy, Tiet Mac has a seal, needs your kiss to release the seal.】 I opened my eyes wide, almost choking on my own saliva.

“What's wrong?” Tiet Mac keenly noticed my difference.

“No, nothing.” I quickly shook my head, my face red.

Kiss? Now? Too sudden... Tiet Mac raised his eyebrows, clearly not believing what I said. He took a step back, crossing his arms over his chest: "Little junior sister, you have something to hide from me." I wriggled my fingers, not knowing what to say. Should I say directly, "Senior Brother, can I kiss you?" The text appeared again: 【Don't hesitate! The seal has limited nine parts of his cultivation level!】 I bit my lower lip, mustered up the courage to raise my head: "Seventh Senior Brother, are you... sealed by something?" Tiet Mac's eyes suddenly narrowed, then returned to calm.

“What do you mean?”

“It's…” I took a deep breath, “Some kind of seal?”

The room suddenly became terrifyingly silent. Tiet Mac's expression completely changed, his star-like eyes became sharp as sword blades.

“Who did you hear say that?” His voice was low and dangerous.

I took a step back, the jade protecting my heart suddenly became hotter.

“I… I guess so.” I said softly.

“Guess?” He smiled faintly, "How can such a secret be guessed?"

My heart is pounding, sweat is dripping down my forehead. Tiet Mac approached: "To Li, tell the truth." His aura completely changed, there was no longer any laziness. I closed my eyes and boldly said: "I can release your seal!" As soon as I said it, I immediately regretted it. Dead, how to explain now? Tiet Mac suddenly grabbed my wrist: "How do you know this?" The force of his hand was not strong, but it was enough to make it impossible for me to escape. When I was confused and didn't know what to do, the words appeared: 【Quickly kiss him! There's no time to explain!】 Everything in my head suddenly felt like it was on fire, I stood on tiptoe, closed my eyes and approached Tiet Mac's lips. My lips touched something soft. Opening my eyes, I discovered Tiet Mac's eyes wide open, his face full of surprise. I really kissed him! About to retreat, Tiet Mac suddenly held my neck tightly and kissed me deeper. A numb feeling, like an electric current, spread from the lips throughout the body. Bright yellow light flared before my eyes. Tiet Mac radiated a powerful wave of spiritual energy, causing objects in the room to make "rumbling" noises. He suddenly let go of me and took a few steps back, unable to believe his hands.

“This… this can't be…”

My legs are weak, I have to hold on to the table to stand steady. The spiritual energy in Tiet Mac's body surged, his aura skyrocketed. Stage of building the foundation... middle stage... late stage... Golden Core stage! His cultivation level has broken through, reaching the Golden Dan stage! A storm arose in the room, our clothes were blown away by the wind. Tiet Mac's black hair blew up like the wind, his eyes looked like stars spinning in the sky.

“You…” His voice was deeper, stronger, “How did you do that?”

I opened my mouth, not knowing how to explain. Should we say it was because we saw the mysterious text? Tiet Mac suddenly raised his hand and created a soundproof barrier.

“This seal was placed by my founder,” he said with a serious face, “Unless we find the destined person, no one can solve it. Okay."

The fateful person? My heart skipped a beat. The text happily jumped up: 【See it yet! I told you you were a match made in heaven!】 Tiet Mac stepped in front of me and lifted my face with both hands.

“To Li, who are you?”

His eyes were so hot that I couldn't avoid them.

“I... I really don't know.” I said honestly, “It's just a kind of intuition…”

Tiet Mac stared at me, as if wanting to penetrate my soul. After a while, he sighed and let go.

“Well, the time hasn't come yet.”

He lifted the barrier, the sounds of birds singing and insects again entered his ears. I just realized it was almost sunset.

“Are you hungry?” Tiet Mac's voice suddenly became gentle again, "Let me go make some food."

Change is so fast that it surprises us.

“The Seven Brothers…”

“Call my name.” He turned around and smiled, "From now on we are truly companions."

My face turned red again: "Tiet... Tiet Mac." He nodded with satisfaction, then walked out of the room.
