Turning My Junior Sister into a Mary Sue In Xianxia Yuri World

Snowflakes gently fell on the umbrella as Ye Anping walked along the corridors of the Yun residence.

His eyes scanned the surroundings, searching for any clues.

He was uncertain about how Elder Zhuang’s men would infiltrate the Yun residence to kidnap Yun Yiyi.

In the game, if the player followed Yun Yiyi’s storyline, they would encounter a scene where Yun Yiyi was kidnapped.

However, the game’s description of the event was vague.

After the player took a nap, a maid would knock on their door, informing them that Yun Yiyi had gone missing.

Fortunately, Yun Yiyi cleverly used incense powder to leave a trail, which the player could follow to find her in a cave on a snowy peak, barely alive.

But this wasn’t a game.

In the game, the player couldn’t get as close to Yun Yiyi as he had.

Additionally, the current situation was different because he, his junior sister, and Feng Yudie were progressing along three separate storylines—something that would never happen in the game.

The plot was bound to change, as evidenced by Feng Yudie’s account from the previous night.

If the player followed Yun Jiujiu’s route in the game, they would not encounter an ambush by Elder Zhuang’s subordinates.

However, Feng Yudie mentioned that she was ambushed by a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In other words, if he did nothing, Yun Yiyi would indeed be kidnapped, but those same people might also try to eliminate him.

As Ye Anping walked along the outer walls of the Yun residence, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind him.

It was the same maid who had knocked on his door that morning.

Huang Quan noticed that Ye Anping had already turned around to face her before she even reached him.

She pursed her lips, somewhat embarrassed, and greeted him, “Greetings, young master.”

Ye Anping squinted slightly, feeling a bit suspicious.

Could this girl be a problem?

If he remembered correctly, her name was Huang Quan.

In the game, she was just an accessory to Yun Yiyi—rarely speaking and only interacting with lines like “Yes” and “Understood.”

She survived the events at the Shadowmoon Sword Sect, so she shouldn’t pose any threat.

However, her nervous expression made Ye Anping uneasy.

With a hint of caution, he asked, “Miss Huang Quan, is there something you need?”

“Ah…” Huang Quan seemed nervous, avoiding eye contact with Ye Anping.

She stammered, “I saw the young master walking alone, so I thought I’d come over to hold the umbrella for you…”

“That’s not necessary. Don’t you have other tasks to attend to?”

“No… I’m the first young mistress’ personal maid. My main duty is to attend to her daily needs. After you marry her, I’ll also take care of your daily needs… and, um… other things…”

Huang Quan’s voice grew softer, and by the time she reached the last few words, she was only mouthing them without any sound.

Ye Anping raised an eyebrow and asked, “What was that?”

“Ah… nothing, nothing,” Huang Quan quickly waved her hands. “Taking care of the young master is part of my duty. Please, let me hold the umbrella for you.”

“… …”

Ye Anping scrutinized her for a moment, then decided to nod in agreement.

Whether this maid had any ulterior motives or not, she wouldn’t dare make a move now.

Moreover, with her meager cultivation at only the second or third level of the Qi Refining stage, he was confident he could handle anything she might try.

He handed the umbrella to her, and Huang Quan’s eyes immediately lit up.

She quickly took the paper umbrella with both hands, holding it above Ye Anping’s head while standing outside its cover herself.

“Is this how you hold an umbrella? Won’t you get soaked in the snow?”

“It’s the rule…” Huang Quan explained. “A servant can’t share the umbrella with their master. When holding the umbrella, I have to stand outside. Didn’t the young master have any servants before?”

Ye Anping was slightly taken aback; he really didn’t know about this rule.

Back in Hundred Lotus Sect, when he helped his junior sister with her grueling training, he and Xiao Die would stand under the same umbrella, watching her train in the rain…

“Step under the umbrella; I don’t follow those rules,” he finally said.

“Ah… no, no,” Huang Quan shook her head, replying, “If the First Young Mistress sees, I’ll get scolded. I’ll be fine like this… I’m not cold.”

Ye Anping paused, noticing that Huang Quan was obviously forcing herself to endure the cold.

He sighed, originally intending to offer her the cloak he was wearing, but realizing it was a gift from Yun Yiyi, he reconsidered.

Instead, he pulled out another cloak from his storage bag and draped it over her shoulders.

“Don’t refuse.”

“Ah…” Huang Quan was taken aback, shrinking her head and nodding, “Thank you, young master…”

Ye Anping glanced at her sleeves to make sure she wasn’t hiding a dagger or any other weapon, and then turned to continue walking down the path.

Huang Quan quickly followed, holding the umbrella over him.

They walked about five hundred steps, passing through a crescent-shaped gate, and arrived at a lotus pond.

Due to the snowfall, the pond’s surface had frozen over, covered with a thick layer of ice and some snow.

A large artificial mountain that once stood in the middle of the pond was now encased in the ice.

Ye Anping looked around, finding nothing out of the ordinary, and was about to move on to the next location.

“Young master… are you just sightseeing? Would you like me to tell you about these places?”

“Hmm? Go ahead, then.”

“Mm-hmm…”

Huang Quan blinked, not really sure what to say.

She just wanted to talk more with Ye Anping, hoping that by getting familiar with him, her chances of being called to serve him in the future might increase.

Seeing the artificial mountain frozen in the pond, she said, “Young master, this is the Drunken Lotus Pond. It’s the First Young Mistress’s favorite place. The lotuses in the pond were all planted by her personally. I think they’re called Seven Star Snow Lotuses, very precious, and apparently, they’re a type of earth treasure.”

“Mm… a water-attributed earth treasure. I’ve heard of it.”

Ye Anping walked along the edge of the pond, responding indifferently.

Seeing his lack of interest, Huang Quan pondered for a moment and added, “Oh, right, that artificial mountain in the pond used to have a very deep cave. It was said to be a natural underground valley that connected to a small cave halfway up Yishui Peak. The First Young Mistress used to love exploring it when she was little.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Anping raised an eyebrow and asked, “What?”

Noticing his interest, Huang Quan quickly continued, “But it’s been sealed off now, and the small cave on the mountainside has also been blocked with stones, so you can’t get in anymore. The First Young Mistress said it was too dangerous.”

So there’s something like that… Ye Anping arched an eyebrow and crouched down to get a closer look at the artificial mountain in the pond.

“Where exactly on the mountainside is it?”

“Um… it’s deep within a bamboo forest, I think. I’ve never been there myself, so I can’t take you. But Elder Liu in the storeroom might know. He’s quite old and watched the First Young Mistress grow up.”

“I see… let’s go check out some other places.”

Ye Anping took one last look at the artificial mountain, mentally noting its location.

It seemed likely that Zhuang Yan’s men might use this route to sneak into the Yun residence and abduct Yun Yiyi.

Later, he would place some talismans around here as a precaution.
