You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?
Chapter 76: 31, The sixteenth child
"Oh, okay."
Yu Shiqi nodded her head in confusion, then closed her eyes and felt around for a moment before her eyes widened in surprise, "The illusion array barrier here is so terrifying, it seems even more sophisticated than the Sword-Seeking Boat's barrier of the Tantian Sect."
"Really?" Lin Yue didn't seem surprised.
He casually took out a dagger, cut his fingertip, and smeared a drop of fresh blood on his forehead, instantly dispelling the Illusion Array.
Of course, he transformed into himself, so the intense flow of heat was but a fleeting moment, with no changes, and the Illusion Array was dissolved immediately.
"Come here, tilt your head up."
Lin Yue looked at Yu Shiqi, holding the Long Bright Pearl in one hand and the Illusion Array in the other.
"Ah?" Yu Shiqi didn't understand what he was about to do, but sensing no malice, she obediently lifted her head.
"This is the secret of my transformation, don't tell anyone."
Lin Yue said casually as he placed the Illusion Array on Yu Shiqi's face. With a thought, the Illusion Array immediately merged into her skin.
After all, he was the true master of the Illusion Array, and only his will could control it.
"Alright, I won't tell anyone... Your Highness, you have so many secrets."
Yu Shiqi muttered, then immediately felt an intense heat coursing through her face, rapidly spreading to every corner of her body, as if turning her flesh into a melting furnace, wildly dissolving her flesh and bones.
She swayed unsteadily and fell backward, soon collapsing into Lin Yue's embrace.
Lin Yue propped her against the wall to sit down, then crossed his arms as he quietly observed the changes in Yu Shiqi's body.
In no time, Yu Shiqi transformed from a petite, cute girl into a completely different young woman. Not only did her facial features become more mature, but her pale skin also emanated a jade-like luster, and her figure was much taller and slender.
"So this is how she looked?"
Lin Yue raised his eyebrows slightly, scrutinizing the jade-like beauty in front of him, illuminated by the Long Bright Pearl.
This was how the female skeleton at the entrance of the Cave Mansion looked in life.
Although he had transformed himself once before, he did not have a mirror and naturally didn't know what he looked like; he had only felt his contours.
"What happened?"
Yu Shiqi reopened her eyes, slightly dazed as she gazed at Lin Yue. Suddenly, she covered her mouth, her eyes widening, "Why has my voice changed..."
Before, her voice was soft and sticky, with that kind of muddled girlish tone, but now it had turned into a babyish voice.
It was a bit of a contrast to her current appearance.
"You've turned into a beauty now."
Lin Yue watched Yu Shiqi's current form with a smile, feeling no urge to pat her head, "Get up, come over and help me carry a few things."
Yu Shiqi, still in a daze, made an affirmative sound, and then shakily stood up.
After walking a couple of steps, she suddenly exclaimed with delight, "I've gotten taller!"
"Right." Lin Yue gave her a quick once-over.
Yu Shiqi was originally not even 1.6 meters tall, but the jade-like beauty was quite tall, only slightly shorter than Baili Fengzhi, probably over 1.75 meters.
"I got taller, hehe."
Yu Shiqi joyfully twirled on the spot to appreciate her new long legs, clearly satisfied with the transformation.
Walking a few steps more, her shoulder twisted, causing her already loose clothing to slip down her smooth jade-like skin, revealing a flash of snow-white shoulder.
Yu Shiqi blinked and turned her head to glance at her shoulder, letting out a soft "ah," "My skin feels so smooth, and my shoulders look so pretty..."
"..."
Lin Yue's mouth twitched slightly, silently pulling her neckline back up — the clothing was a bit too prone to exposure.
This girl was like a little kid in his mind, and taking advantage of her like this felt somewhat sinful.
"Your Highness, do I look pretty?" Yu Shiqi curiously asked.
"Not bad," Lin Yue responded casually.
"I want to see... "
Yu Shiqi spoke tentatively, "When you have time, Your Highness, could you transform into my current look and show me in some pretty clothes?"
"...Don't even think about it." Lin Yue rolled his eyes.
"...Oh." Yu Shiqi pouted reluctantly, following Lin Yue deeper into the cave, while exploring her own body with her hands.
"The skin feels so smooth, cool and comfortable. Your Highness, do you want to feel... The legs are also very fine... but kind of small..."
Lin Yue couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eyes as he listened to her rustling behind him, muttering to herself and assessing her new body — someone unaware might think she was a pervert...
After a short while, the two reached the end of the cave, where the two skeletons lay.
"Stop touching."
Lin Yue couldn't help but thump her head in frustration, saying helplessly, "Do you see those two skeletons?"
"Oh..." Yu Shiqi covered her head, looking wronged, before turning to the skeletons.
"The way you've transformed now is what this skeleton looked like in life."
Lin Yue pointed to the female skeleton holding the rusted iron sword and whispered, "The sword has a spirit, and it recognizes only its master. With your cultivation, coupled with your current appearance, you should be able to contain it. Try to take the sword."
"Oh..."
Yu Shiqi eyed the female skeleton, then exclaimed, "My third master once taught me that this kind of skeleton has an 'Ice Heart Jade Bone' constitution!"
"Ice Heart Jade Bone?" Lin Yue looked at her.
"Yes," Yu Shiqi touched herself, "No wonder the skin is so nice. It's because of the Ice Heart Jade Bone that the skin and flesh are also transformed into Ice Skin Jade Bone."
Which means the whole body can be jade, right?
