"..."
Chen Yang glared at Xiao Yan. Why didn't this kid just say it out loud?
Communicating with Soul Power, how could Yun Yun know?
"Hehe..."
Seeing Chen Yang glare at him, Xiao Yan figured he had guessed correctly.
[Writing this, I hope readers remember our domain, Taiwan Novel Network, for escaping book droughts: twkan.com, super practical]
He didn't think there was anything wrong with Chen Yang and Yun Yun having something happen between them.
Firstly, Chen Yang didn't owe him anything; in fact, he owed Chen Yang a great deal.
Secondly, if Chen Yang could win over Yun Yun, he inexplicably felt a little smug—'Nalan Yanran, didn't you look down on me, Xiao Yan? Now isn't your teacher with my Brother Yang?'
Furthermore, he had long since come to terms with the grievances with Nalan Yanran. His old man was senile, making a childhood engagement with that old thing Nalan Jie, and then he died first, leaving such a mess.
He believed that in a little over a year, he would ascend the Cloud Mist Sect with unparalleled talent and defeat Nalan Yanran with crushing force. That woman was merely a fleeting passerby in his life.
And in terms of looks, which woman in this world could compare to his own Xun'er?
Not to mention that he was a weakling now. Unless he became the legendary, ethereal Dou Di, Xun'er's Family probably wouldn't accept him having other women, right?
With all these factors combined, Xiao Yan now actually looked forward to something happening between Chen Yang and Yun Yun.
"Come, try this kid's cooking."
Chen Yang watched Yun Yun follow him, and subtly took a grilled fish from Xiao Yan's hand, offering it to Yun Yun.
Yun Yun was also eating this kind of thing for the first time. She glanced at Chen Yang, and after seeing him nod again, she took a small bite of the fish: "Mmm... delicious, Xiao Yan, your cooking is really good."
"Thank you for the compliment, Sister Yun Yun!" Xiao Yan took the opportunity, immediately calling her Sister Yun Yun.
Although Yun Yun was pure-minded, she wasn't foolish. She could tell that Xiao Yan was calling her that because of Chen Yang, and her already un-faded shyness deepened.
Noticing Yun Yun eating her fish with her head down and not saying a word, Chen Yang secretly gave Xiao Yan a thumbs up, indicating that the kid had skill.
Xiao Yan chuckled again, instinctively reaching up to touch his nose, but accidentally smudged the tip of his nose black.
"Pfft..." Yun Yun ate a few bites, then burst out laughing when she saw Xiao Yan's appearance. Chen Yang also laughed heartily, almost making Xiao Yan add special seasoning to their grilled fish... After dinner, it was still early.
After Xiao Yan tidied up the area, Chen Yang casually put the small stool from under his bottom back into his storage ring.
Yun Yun looked at Chen Yang, and subtly put away the small stool she had been sitting on as well.
Chen Yang noticed Yun Yun's small action but said nothing, instead actively changing the topic to ease her embarrassment.
"Yun Yun, when are you planning to go back?" Chen Yang asked.
Yun Yun looked at Chen Yang before her, two emotions intertwined in her heart.
She definitely had to go back, but could she go back a little later?
Compared to the age and strength gap between her and Xiao Yan in the original plot, there was no gap between Yun Yun and Chen Yang now; in fact, she felt she might even be unworthy of Chen Yang.
However, as she thought of this, her delicate body suddenly trembled.
'I've only just met him, so why am I thinking about whether I'm worthy or not?'
The sunset glow fell on Yun Yun's cheeks, masking her shy blush. However, Chen Yang glimpsed the crimson on the woman's earlobe, adding a touch of stunning beauty to the already beautiful Magical Beast Mountain Range.
"Ever since Master went into seclusion and I took over as Sect Master, I haven't had a moment of leisure. Now, using the excuse of finding a purple spirit crystal for Yanran, I can steal some free time."
Allowing the sunset glow to fall upon her plain dress, Yun Yun secretly glanced at Chen Yang, choosing to let her inner feelings blossom.
Since she felt a little moved, she would try to get closer, to avoid future regrets.
As for Nalan Yanran, Yun Yun had already given up on making her compete with Xiao Yan for the Three-Year Agreement.
Although her Disciple was excellent, having a head start of so many years on Xiao Yan, she was only a One-Star Dou Master now. Even with the Medicinal Pill refined from this purple spirit crystal, becoming a Great Dou Master by the time of the Three-Year Agreement would be her absolute limit.
And Xiao Yan?
He was about to Break through to Seven-Star Dou Shi! One and a half years ago, he was only at the third stage of Dou Zhi Qi!
Seeing Chen Yang remain silent, merely nodding and smiling at her, Yun Yun also revealed a faint, elegant smile, then turned and softly said to Xiao Yan, "Xiao Yan, regarding the annulment of the engagement back then, I did indeed act improperly. I apologize to you on Yanran's behalf!"
Xiao Yan, who had finished tidying up his things, was startled by this, then laughed freely: "It's alright, Sister Yun Yun. I know Nalan Yanran came to annul the engagement, and some things were her own decision. Besides, I've already gotten everything I needed, so neither of us owes the other anything."
After speaking, Xiao Yan jumped off the rock by the water: "Moreover, my horizons are no longer limited to this Jia Ma Empire. Nalan Yanran is merely a passerby in my life. I have things I want to pursue, and I will definitely work hard to achieve my goals."
Yun Yun was slightly stunned after hearing Xiao Yan's words. Just as she was about to say something, Xiao Yan suddenly chuckled: "Hehe, some of these principles were taught to me by Brother Yang. Sister Yun Yun, I really have high hopes for you and Brother Yang!"
With that, Xiao Yan scurried off, leaving Yun Yun standing there, blushing again... Yun Yun truly, as she herself said, stole a few days of leisure in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
Xiao Yan snuck away on the second day. Before leaving, he left Chen Yang an address, telling Chen Yang to find him after Yun Yun left.
With only the two of them left in their own world, one with desire and the other with affection, their feelings quickly warmed up.
Compared to Xiao Yi Xian, Yun Yun's emotional release process was undoubtedly faster.
Although the two didn't experience any life-or-death crises or intimate moments in a cave, this subtle interaction, which made Yun Yun feel a little nervous but not averse, became the key to their blossoming relationship.
Of course, Yun Yun was not like a passionate woman such as Ya Fei; she always maintained a distance in intimate contact. At most, the two would hold hands and dig for medicinal herbs all over the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
During this time, the Demonic Beasts in the eastern region of the Magical Beast Mountain Range were extremely miserable.
Their Great King had long since surrendered, and now two Dou Huang experts had arrived, making their lives increasingly difficult.
However, gatherings are always temporary; separation is the norm.
After seven days of being intimate with Chen Yang in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, it was time for Yun Yun to leave.
"Next, are you going to escort Xiao Yan all the way?" Yun Yun asked softly.
"My route is the same as Xiao Yan's. The Family found information about a strange flame, and I plan to go look for it!" Chen Yang said softly, holding Yun Yun's small hand.
"Then... will you come to the Cloud Mist Sect to see me?" Yun Yun asked softly.
"Of course, but it might take some time." Chen Yang smiled.
"I'll wait for you at the Cloud Mist Sect..." Yun Yun's beautiful eyes were fixed on Chen Yang, full of longing.
"In about half a year, I'll be in the Imperial Capital. By then, I'll send someone to pass a message to you!" Chen Yang raised his hand towards Yun Yun's face. This time, Yun Yun didn't dodge, but allowed Chen Yang's large hand to caress her cheek.
"Mmm!" Yun Yun nodded gently, and seeing Chen Yang staring at her, she slightly raised her head and closed her eyes.
"Woo..."
...A brief separation is for a better reunion. Watching the distant cyan figure in the sky, Chen Yang smacked his lips, as if savoring a memory.
"Yun Yun has left, it's time to get down to business..."
Whispering softly, Chen Yang leaped up and flew towards the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Immortal Cave...
