The candlelight on the table cast two people's shadows on the curtains beside the bed like a shadow puppet show, accompanied by the squeaking sound of the bed and Pei Lianxue's rhythmic trills.

Xiao Yunluo curled on her side under the bed, her hands tightly covering her mouth and nose. Sawdust fell on her face as she listened to the creak of the wooden bedboard.

Squeaky-squeaky--

"Brother, do you like it? Yunluo taught me..."

"...Well, take it easy... I am fine."

"Don't underestimate me! Hmph~ Check out this this move..."

...

Squeaky-squeaky--

"Sister, why don't we stop here? Your body is getting hot, and you have absorbed too much yang energy this time... It's better to divide it several times. You'll have to rest in bed for a whole day tomorrow."

"No... It's okay... I... I'm still okay!"

"You can't even speak clearly."

"Woo--- Brother, just lie down! Leave it to me! I can do it..."

...

Squeaky-squeaky---

Chirp--

"Brother, aren't we going to continue? You haven't consumed your yang excess yet."

"Sister, you can't even sit up straight, and you still want to go on?"

"But... I haven't had enough fun yet. Anyway, I have nothing to do tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. If I can't get out of bed, then so be it."

"Heh... you girl, after eating meat you became addicted, eh?"

"Hehe... who told you to come to see me only once a month?! The book says that you are at the age of full vigor and vitality, and you need to relieve yourself every day."

"Every day?... What book did you read?"

"The book given by Mrs. Kong."

"Hiss--"

Squeak--Squeak--

...

The moonlight outside the window was bright, the candlelight on the table flickered, and small sounds accompanied by the faint fragrance of flowers were scattered in the four corners of the room.

After an unknown amount of time, the candle oil burned out, and the room finally returned to peace.

Xiao Yunluo heard that there was no movement above, so she waited for a while before carefully rolling out from under the bed.

Her heart was a jumble of mixed emotions, yet she was quite awestruck.

When she entered the room, the candle lamp on the desk was still more than half, and Ye Anping and Pei Lianxue went at it until the oil ran out, which was roughly at least two hours.

Ye Anping didn't look tall or strong, but he was actually so powerful in this aspect. No wonder he said she might not stand it.

Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and slowly stood up from the ground. She didn't feel anything in her heart, but when she turned her head and looked at Pei Lianxue who was sleeping peacefully on Ye Anping's shoulder, she suddenly felt a little jealous.

She also wanted to sleep on Ye Anping's shoulder like that.

But then again, Ye Anping, this bastard, knew that she was hiding under the bed, but he still lingered with Lianxue for so long that her legs were numb...

"..."

Xiao Yunluo pouted, feeling somewhat angry for no reason. Looking at Pei Lianxue's sleeping face, she took a deep breath and made a bold decision.

She went over, propped her hands on the bed, and looked at Ye Anping's sweaty face. She then closed her eyes, leaning forward.

Mwah---

Their lips lightly touched.

The first time she kissed Ye Anping, it was a little different from what she imagined.

On Ye Anping's lips, there was a faintly sweet flavor, somewhat like the flavor of sweet flower rouge...

Sweet flower rouge...

When they went shopping in Heavenly Gate City before, she bought sweet flower rouge for Pei Lianxue...

That was the taste of Pei Lianxue's lips...

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunluo was finally unable to hold back. She bit her lower lip tightly as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Woo..."

Sobbing softly, she covered her eyes, turned around, and rushed out of the room.

Bang---

Tap-tap-tap---

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away.

Ye Anping, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by the noise and opened his eyes slowly. Seeing his sister sleeping against his shoulder, a tender look fleeted across his face and he kissed her forehead.

But when he turned his head and saw the door wide open, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something...

Xiao Yunluo had been hiding there...

"Hiss--" freewebnoveℓ.com

Remembering Xiao Yunluo, Ye Anping took a sharp breath. Just now, because his sister was too charming and his yang energy was out of control, he simply forgot about Xiao Yunluo hiding under the bed.

Originally, Ye Anping had planned to get his yang energy under control quickly and then carry his sister back, but he didn't expect to be entangled with her for so long.

He sighed somewhat helplessly, carefully pulled his hand out of his sister's arms, and got off the bed before gently covering her with the quilt.

"Mmm... Brother..."

"Brother will be back soon, you sleep."

"Hmm..."

Ye Anping smoothed her bangs. He then picked up his clothes from the ground and put them on to go after Xiao Yunluo.

...

On the open platform in front of the boat, Si Xuanji and Tong Zilan still chatted and played chess to pass the time accompanied by the stars in the sky.

Suddenly, a golden-feathered parrot flew in from outside the boat and croaked. "Letter from the Immortal Alliance!! Letter from the Immortal Alliance!!"

Tong Zilan stopped her move and turned her head to take a look, only to see the parrot holding a golden jade slip in its claws and dropping it on the chessboard.

Si Xuanji took hold of it, scanned it with her spiritual sense, and then sighed helplessly.

"Sigh---"

"Immortal Matriarch, it seems like an important matter. Should I step aside?"

"No need, it's not a big deal." Si Xuanji shrugged, slightly bored. "It's just a few restless old geezers."

She handed the jade slip to Tong Zilan, motioning her to read it herself.

Tong Zilan hesitated for a moment, then took it with both hands and glanced at it. There was a lot of content written on the jade slip, but it all boiled down to just one sentence.

---Immortal Red Moon is invited to the Mountain of Knowledge in the Southern Region to attend the Immortal Alliance Conference at the end of this year.

It seemed that the five main Immortal Family sects had learned of Nangong Cheng's fall. This was also the demise of a sect that had existed for ten thousand years. Surely, this was not a small problem.

Si Xuanji grinned and asked, "Do you want to go with me? After all, you were once the Empress of the Imperial Sect, so you have a say in Nangong Cheng's matter."

Tong Zilan immediately understood what she meant. Si Xuanji wanted her to conceal the real cause of Nangong Cheng's death in her capacity as the Empress.

"Immortal Matriarch, since you invited me, I will accompany you. I only need to say that Nangong Cheng died at the hands of the Demon King, right?"

"Of course. I have nothing to do with Nangong's death."

The two smiled at each other as they reached a consensus.

At this time, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the deck. Si Xuanji turned around and saw Xiao Yunluo running up in a thin nightgown, covering her eyes.

Just as she was about to ask her what happened, Xiao Yunluo rushed over, opened her arms, and threw herself into her arms, burying her face in her belly.

"Mother!! Woo-woo-sob-woo-woo-"

"..."

Si Xuanji seldom saw Xiao Yunluo crying so sadly. Thinking that she must have been wronged, she sighed helplessly and gently smoothed her hair with her little hand.

"What's wrong? Did Master Ye bully you?"

Xiao Yunluo knelt in front of Si Xuanji's stool, hugged her waist, and raised her head, sniffing. "Sniff -- mother... wuwuwu -- didn't you want to marry me to Ye Anping? Can you speak to him? Tell him to marry me..."

"..."

Si Xuanji raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. Although she didn't know what happened specifically, she could guess from this sentence that this girl probably did something stupid again, and now she felt wronged.

She couldn't help but sigh.

However, before she could say something, she saw Ye Anping coming up from the cabin below.

Realizing that Ye Anping had entered the Core Formation stage, she asked in surprise, "Master Ye, have you reached the Core Formation stage?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yunluo was stunned. Wasn't he asleep? Why did he suddenly get up? Could it be that he came to see her?

She pursed her lips and weakly turned her head and looked behind her. Meeting Ye Anping's gaze, she hastily averted her eyes.

"..."

Ye Anping looked at her red eyes, feeling somewhat helpless, and cupped his hands in salute. "Miss Xuanji, Sister Tong, good evening."

Although Ye Anping did not say why he came, Si Xuanji saw that his eyes were on Xiao Yunluo and understood. She put her little hand on Xiao Yunluo's shoulder, pulled her up from the ground, and turned her around. "Master Ye, were you looking for my sister? Yunluo, go quickly..."

As she said that, she pushed Xiao Yunluo with a little force, causing her to lose balance and fall into Ye Anping's arms.

Ye Anping held her shoulders with both hands and said nothing. He nodded to Si Xuanji and Tong Zilan, then pulled Xiao Yunluo's wrist and walked back to the cabin.

"Ah... Ye Anping, why did you come out? Weren't you..."

Ye Anping interrupted her. "Sister Xiao, come with me. I have something to tell you."

Looking at the two youngsters returning to the cabin, Si Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally, the kid made a move. If that girl had more determination, wouldn't this have happened a long time ago?"

Tong Zilan shook her head with a smile. "When I met Nangong Cheng, I was similar to Miss Xiao. I was too shy to speak my mind. It was Nangong Cheng who initiated this fateful relationship of a hundred years."

"Really?"

Tong Zilan looked at Si Xuanji, then asked tentatively, "Speaking of which, I am also quite curious about your past love affairs. If you don't mind..."

"There's nothing to say." Si Xuanji shook her head and pursed her lips. "There were a few men who pursued me in the past."

"It's just a casual chat... if you want to tell me?"

Si Xuanji was silent for a while, recalling the events of thousands of years ago.

In her time, she was an elite immortal, and she could proudly say that the people who pursued her were enough to line up from the Black Star Sect Master Hall to the Immortal Gate. It was a pity that she was devoted to following the Path at that time and had no interest in love.

And when she felt lonely and looked back, she found that the graves of those pursuers had been dug up in batches.

"No need to talk. Let's play chess!"

...

On the lower deck corridor, Ye Anping held Xiao Yunluo's wrist and walked slowly to the side railing.

Beyond the railing was a bright moon and starry sky. The silvery moonlight shone on Ye Anping's face, making his eyes even brighter.

Walking by his side, Xiao Yunluo slightly leaned toward him, asking, "Ye Anping, you... what do you want to say to me? Could it be that... Lianxue is not enough, so you still want me to help you?"

"..."

Ye Anping turned his head to look at her, closed his eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he took out the Yin-Yang Jade Pendant that Si Xuanji had given him from the storage bag.

"Sister Xiao, do you recognize this?"

Xiao Yunluo glanced at it, looked away, and then took a second glance. Her eyes widened, and she raised her head to meet Ye Anping's gaze.

If he pulled this out, could it mean...

"Ye Anping, you... have you made up your mind?"

"Yeah." Ye Anping nodded. "I got this Yang pendant from your sister. She said that you also have a Yin pendant."

Xiao Yunluo was stunned for a moment, then she hurriedly wanted to take out her jade pendant. However, she had taken off all her clothes when she went to Ye Anping's place before, and now there was nothing under her skirt, let alone a storage bag.

"Wait a minute... I'll go and get it."

She grinned, then turned around and prepared to run back to her room to get the storage bag, but Ye Anping grabbed her shoulders and pulled her back with a helpless look.

"This jade pendant is nothing more than a token. I showed it to you so that you would understand what I mean."

Xiao Yunluo nodded blankly. She was very happy at the moment but also confused.

The night before, when she overheard her mother talking to Ye Anping, she thought that since Ye Anping had never told her about the jade pendant, it meant that he had not accepted her yet.

Now that Ye Anping suddenly took it out, she was really at a loss for words...

Xiao Yunluo slowly lowered her head, leaning forward, and rested her forehead on Ye Anping's chest. "Ye Anping, but how are you going to explain to Lianxue?"

"When the time comes, we'll just sit down together and talk seriously. My sister and you are very close, didn't she talk to me about you just now when we were together? Didn't you hear that?"

"?"

Xiao Yunluo froze, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed. "That was because Lianxue asked me, so I taught her... I didn't teach her on my own initiative."

"Really?"

"Really!"

"..."

Ye Anping stared at her without speaking.

Xiao Yunluo was unnerved by his stare, and she lowered her head, blushing. "...Okay. I took the initiative to tell her, but I just... wanted you to feel better. You didn't teach Lianxue... She told me before that you never taught her those things, so..."

"Instead of teaching my sister, you might as well teach Sister Feng. She still wants to borrow a bird from me."

"Huh? What? What did she want to borrow?"

Ye Anping sighed helplessly. "Yunluo, I've finished what I wanted to say. It's your turn now. Whether you agree or refuse, just say it when you've made up your mind. Don't act so prideful. I want to hear it from your own mouth."

"Ah..."

Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and gently grasped Ye Anping's collar, pondering for a while. Then, she took a deep breath and raised her head. "Marry me! Ye Anping, I want you to marry me!! I have liked you for a long time! Ever since you came to be my companion in the Black Star Sect, I have liked you. I want you to be my cultivation partner! I want you to hug me! Kiss me!! I want to practice with you!! I..."

"Then, I'll give you my answer too." Ye Anping closed his eyes, hugging her. "I will be responsible for you in the future."

Her petite body was slightly fragrant, and Ye Anping relaxed, lowering his chin on the top of her head and rubbing it gently.

Feeling Ye Anping's breath blowing on her hair, Xiao Yunluo curled her toes into the ground. She was so excited that she just wanted to jump ten feet on the spot, but she tried her best to hold back.

"Anping."

"What?"

"I can talk to Lianxue myself. You don't have to worry about it," Xiao Yunluo said. "I know her personality, so I can convince her to accept me. Just leave it to me. I was the one who got in between you guys in the first place, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

Xiao Yunluo nodded firmly. She looked up at Ye Anping's lips, closed her eyes, and stood on tiptoe.

"Woo~~"

Seeing her struggling, Ye Anping shook his head helplessly, put his arms around her waist, and lifted her.

Their lips met, and because of her height, Xiao Yunluo wiggled her toes to find a foothold and finally climbed on Ye Anping's feet.

But just as the two were kissing, a golden form floated over.

Ye Anping felt something flashing past his eyes, and when he opened them, he saw Xiao Tian floating in front of him, with her face puffed up in anger and her arms crossed.

"..."

Taken aback, Ye Anping put Xiao Yunluo back on the ground.

Xiao Yunluo looked puzzled and asked, "What... what happened?"

Xiao Tian looked at Xiao Yunluo, rolled her eyes, and waved her hand silently, pointing behind a pillar in the corridor.

Ye Anping followed her finger and Xiao Yunluo followed Ye Anping's gaze.

What they saw was Feng Yu Die crouched behind a pillar, sticking her head out, as if she had been peeking there for a long time.

Seeing that she was sold out by Xiao Tian, she smiled awkwardly. "Hehehe..."

Then, she turned around and ran back in the opposite direction.

Watching Feng Yu Die who suddenly appeared and disappeared, Xiao Yunluo's original intention to help Ye Anping relieve his yang energy also disappeared instantly.

Ye Anping breathed a sigh of relief. "Sister Xiao, go back to your room and rest. The sun will soon rise."

"Ah... um. Do you want to..."

"Not today. Let's talk about it when we return to the Black Star Sect."
