What do you mean my cute disciples are Yanderes?

(MC POV)

I made sure to leave a note with Elder Gui telling him I went back to my room before returning back to the guest courtyard as Wugui.

Unexpectedly, Master Xiao was in front of the guest courtyard with several other Elders and Masters when I returned. Feng Jie was there as well and they were engaged in conversation, most probably about the apology for how she was received earlier today.

Even from this distance, I could tell Feng Jie was not interested in the people in front of her with how her arms were crossed and her body leaning slightly to the side.

I did a quick scan and thankfully, the slime was still infecting Master Xiao and not Feng Jie.

I was considering on waiting for their conversation to be done before going back but Feng Jie caught sight of me before I could slip away.

"Oh darling! There you are!" She waved at me with much more enthusiasm than necessary.

Everyone there immediately turned their sights towards my direction, most of them frowning when they recognised me.

Very subtle, Feng Jie... I'll need to spank her later.

Since they already saw me, there was no way I could just walk off and pretend I didn't hear her.

I reluctantly went over to them and Feng Jie immediately went to wrap her arms around me from behind.

Master Xiao tilted his head at me, "Is this... The talent you told us about, Honoured Phoenix?"

"Fufu, that's right, that's right! To think you people almost kicked him out thinking he was talentless, truly disappointing!"

Feng Jie already knows my real identity so I'm pretty sure this is just her having fun with them. Not that I'm one to talk since I'm doing the same thing too.

Master Xiao bowed his head, "This is an oversight on our part, please accept my deepest apologies. I will strive to improve our curriculum to prevent such cases from happening again."

Not really your fault for this one, although I do agree your curriculum needs some revision. It looks quite inefficient and there's definitely improvements to be made around here.

Feng Jie turned up her nose at him, "See that you do. In the meantime, I'm going to be busy with my dear prodigy here, so don't come and disturb me."

"Of course. Do let us know if you require anything else."

Master Xiao led the group away, leaving Feng Jie to drag me back inside the guest house.

"Ahhh... That was so tiring," Feng Jie groaned, though her hands remained wrapped around me. "Is everyone on this Plane so boorish and uptight all the time? Even Matriarch Lunamaeniera was much more interesting to be around than this group of humans."

"I'd say it's only this group of people. They do revere phoenixes after all so that's the normal reaction when they meet someone like you."

"Ahh~ You flatter me too much, darling~ Now, why are you still dressed and in your male form? I want to get back to worshipping that honeypot of yours."

"Do you have an off switch on you? You're even worse than Diao Chan."

"Pfft, that Witch? You do know she's holding herself back right? I can guarantee you if the restraints are off, she'll be much more unhinged than I am."

"And that's why I said you're worse than her. She at least shows some restraint while you don't."

"Oya? Why should I restrain myself when such a delectable beauty is standing right in front of me? It will be absolutely rude of me to stop myself from gobbling you up~"

"Maybe consider the fact that there is a time and place for everything?"

Feng Jie nibbled on my ear before whispering, "Oh... But the time is now and the place is right here~"

Before I could start prying myself away from her, a voice I didn't expect to hear came from inside the room.

"Papa?"

I spun my head to see Cai Hong standing at the bedroom's doorway, the little dragon watching me while sucking on a finger.

"Cai Hong? What are you doing here? And how did you know it was me?"

"Cai Hong lonely... Cai Hong followed Papa's smell. Papa huggies?" She asked, her hands reaching out for me.

I immediately pried myself from Feng Jie's grasp and went to pick up my cute little daughter to cuddle.

"There, there. Is this better now?" I cooed, petting her on the head.

"Ehehehe~ Papa warm~" She giggled, cuddling my face.

"But how did you get here? Did Manami teleport you here?"

Cai Hong shook her head, "Cai Hong wanted to see Papa very much. So Cai Hong went poof! And then Cai Hong came here!"

Erm... Omniscience?

...

She bent time and space to get here? Ah, I see, I see.

Look at her, just a few years out of her shell and my little girl's already bending time and space. Papa's so proud!

Feng Jie frowned at me, "If the little one is here... You're going to let her sleep with you tonight aren't you?"

I looked at Cai Hong, "Does Cai Hong want to go back home?"

The little dragon shook her head vehemently before burrowing her face into my chest, "Cai Hong no want! Cai Hong lonely! Cai Hong want stay with Papa! Home too many weird people! Sisters also weird... Cai Hong no like... Cai Hong stay?"

Weird people? Ah, she must be talking about how we had an influx of new students and she didn't like the crowd without me there. Though what does she mean by the girls being weird? Were they also lonely without me there?

I stroked her head, "Ok, ok. You can sleep with Papa tonight."

"Yay~~ Cai Hong wuv Papa!"

Feng Jie sighed, "There goes my plans of eating you out all night. Unless you don't mind me doing it while your--"

"One more word out of you and I'm sticking you in another dimension until tomorrow morning," I warned.

She obediently clamped her mouth shut, though the glint in her eyes told me she was going to try it anyway.

After making sure Cai Hong was fine, I made a telepathy call to Manami.

"Ara, ara? Isn't it Master? Ufufufu~ What can I do for you, Master? Ufufufu~" Manami giggled, making me wonder what was going on at her end for her to giggle like that.

"I just wanted to let you girls know that Cai Hong is currently with me, just in case you guys thought she went missing or something."

"Ufufufufu~ No need to worry, Master... Ufufufufu~ We already know~"

I frowned, "Is something wrong, Manami? Why are you giggling like that?"

"Ara? Nothing's wrong Master. Ufufufu~ Ahnnn~ We can't wait for you to come back soon~"

Ok, I think I know what she's doing... It's their mating season now isn't it? No wonder Cai Hong said they were weird...

I made some polite noises before breaking the connection, though I didn't do it fast enough since I did hear her let out a rather loud moan before I did so.

I pointedly avoided looking in Feng Jie's direction, the succubus phoenix already making bedroom eyes at me.

Well... Looks like things aren't any better back home than here. Should I just extend my stay?
