After the Fairy Maidens Fell to Darkness, They Captured Me to Ruthlessly 'Repay' Their Gratitude-Chapter 15 - You Don’t Know Him At All

This morning, An Luo Yi was the first to arrive.

With some time to spare before the swordsmanship class, An Luo Yi donned a beautiful celestial dress and flew her sword to He Ange’s dormitory.

She had two reasons for seeking him out.

First, to wake him up and correct his bad habit of sleeping in.

Second, to drag him along for morning practice, helping him develop the good habit of rising early and diligently training his swordsmanship.

Of course, during their practice, An Luo Yi also planned to teach him some new sword techniques.

After all, with the upcoming swordsmanship class, the elders would lecture, and as the assistant instructor, An Luo Yi would likely select a few inner disciples to spar with her as a demonstration.

Naturally, the first person she thought of was He Ange, her lifelong sparring partner and human punching bag.

However, there was a problem—He Ange was now widely known to be weak, especially after losing his spiritual vein.

If she called him up and he couldn’t keep up with her techniques, wouldn’t that embarrass him in front of everyone?

To avoid this, An Luo Yi decided to wake him up early and give him a preview of the day’s lesson. That way, when he sparred with her in class, he’d at least be able to follow her rhythm.

Her intentions were good.

But to her surprise, when she arrived at He Ange’s dormitory, he wasn’t home!

Not being home wasn’t unusual—He Ange had a habit of sneaking out at night. An Luo Yi didn’t mind waiting for a while at his door.

What truly irked her was that she hadn’t been standing there long when another girl showed up looking for He Ange!

And not just any girl—it was Xia Ranyue, an inner disciple rumored to have helped He Ange achieve Foundation Establishment.

Everyone knew Xia Ranyue was the “flower” of the inner sect. Many male disciples were utterly smitten with her, practically worshiping her. If she so much as spoke, the inner sect would respond in unison.

And now, this girl, known for her skill in charming men, had come looking for He Ange early in the morning?

It was hard not to question her true intentions.

With a testing tone, An Luo Yi decided to speak first.

“Junior Sister Ranyue, what a coincidence to see you here.”

“Good morning, Senior Sister Luo Yi,” Xia Ranyue replied with a bright smile, her small fang peeking out adorably.

But to An Luo Yi, who was also a woman, such charms had no effect.

“It really is a coincidence. I didn’t expect to see you here so early, looking for Junior Brother He Ange,” An Luo Yi said, her tone polite but probing.

Xia Ranyue chuckled lightly, her seemingly innocent gaze carrying a hint of curiosity. “I could say the same, Senior Sister. What brings you here so early?”

An Luo Yi frowned slightly, narrowing her eyes.

“There’s something I’ve been meaning to ask you, Junior Sister Ranyue,” she said.

“What is it?”

“According to Junior Brother He Ange, he was able to break through to Foundation Establishment yesterday thanks to your help. I’m curious—what exactly did you do to help someone without a spiritual vein achieve such a feat?”

Her sharp gaze locked onto Xia Ranyue, determined to uncover the truth behind this little fox’s intentions.

Xia Ranyue’s smile froze.

Her expression stiffened, and her face twitched slightly, caught between a smile and a grimace. It was hard to tell if she was amused or annoyed.

The tension hung in the air.

After a moment, Xia Ranyue forced a polite smile, suppressing her anger. “Senior Sister, is that what Junior Brother He Ange told you?”

“Of course,” An Luo Yi replied, raising an eyebrow as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

Clearly, as an outsider, An Luo Yi didn’t know the full story. She couldn’t understand Xia Ranyue’s feelings about the matter. To her, Xia Ranyue’s evasiveness seemed suspicious, as if she were hiding something.

And this only confirmed An Luo Yi’s suspicions.

She’s definitely hiding something!

“Junior Sister Ranyue, you should know that He Ange lost his spiritual vein a year ago. It’s common knowledge in the cultivation world that someone without a spiritual vein can’t cultivate. Yet somehow, you managed to help him break through to Foundation Establishment. That’s practically a medical miracle!”

“Honestly, I’m very curious. If you share your secret with me, we could work together to help He Ange cultivate even further,” An Luo Yi said earnestly, crossing her arms.

But Xia Ranyue was on the verge of losing it.

A secret?

A medical miracle?

He Ange, you shameless bastard! How could you twist what happened that night into some noble story about me helping you break through?

You’re unbelievable!

There were so many things Xia Ranyue wanted to say, she didn’t even know where to start.

Now, with An Luo Yi pressing her for answers, her intense gaze clearly believing He Ange’s lies, Xia Ranyue was at a loss.

What was she supposed to say?

She couldn’t very well admit, “Oh, I slept with He Ange that night. I seduced him, invited him to dual cultivate with me, and then stupidly gave him all my spiritual energy, which allowed him to reach Foundation Establishment.”

If she said that, she’d lose all her dignity as a fox demon!

And as for “working together to help He Ange cultivate further”? An Luo Yi clearly had no idea about the scumbag lurking beneath He Ange’s obedient facade.

There was no way Xia Ranyue could answer An Luo Yi’s questions.

He Ange had taken advantage of her and then dug a pit for her to fall into. He was truly shameless!

“Senior Sister, that’s a secret between Junior Brother He Ange and me. I’m afraid I can’t share it,” Xia Ranyue said with a sweet smile, clasping her hands behind her back.

When in doubt, play fool.

An Luo Yi’s confusion deepened, her beautiful eyes narrowing.

A secret?

What kind of secret could she and He Ange possibly have?

Could it be... something intimate?

No, that was unlikely. He Ange might be a flirt, but he wasn’t the type to indulge in debauchery. If he were, he would’ve made a move on her long ago.

But if not that, then what kind of secret could exist between a man and a woman?

The more Xia Ranyue avoided the question, the more An Luo Yi fixated on it. After all, He Ange had never hidden anything from her before.

But now, he was keeping secrets from her with another woman?

The thought made An Luo Yi uneasy. She stared at Xia Ranyue with growing suspicion, her mood visibly souring.

Seeing this, Xia Ranyue couldn’t help but find it ironic and amusing.

Shaking her head, she sighed. “Senior Sister Luo Yi, I don’t know what kind of relationship you have with Junior Brother He Ange, but let me give you a word of advice...”

She paused, recalling the cold look in He Ange’s eyes and the way he had spanked her that night. A shiver ran down her spine.

Thinking of his true nature, she sneered. “He Ange... you really don’t know him at all.”
