For some reason, he had a feeling that once Yun Yun became a Dou Huang powerhouse again, their somewhat romantic relationship would be shattered.
In the future, she will still be a powerful Dou Huang, while he will still be just an ant struggling to become a Dou Shi.
The two may never cross paths again.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan seemed to find the fragrant grilled fish in his hand somewhat tasteless. He quickly finished the fish and mumbled, "Really? Then congratulations."
Seemingly oblivious to Xiao Yan's complex emotions, Yun Yun continued, "After I recover my strength, I will go back."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan, who was engrossed in eating fish, suddenly blurted out, "I actually hope you remain sealed away by it..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun's eyebrows shot up, and she angrily threw the grilled fish in her hand at Xiao Yan, saying, "You jinx, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Catching the flying grilled fish with his backhand, Xiao Yan grinned as he looked at the tiny teeth marks on it and slowly began to gnaw on it as if it were a precious treasure.
"You are a celestial maiden from the heavens, while I am merely a frog at the bottom of a well. If we hadn't fallen into misfortune, how could we have had the chance to meet or even spend time together!"
Seeing Xiao Yan repeatedly turning and gnawing on the fish she had already eaten, and hearing his words, Yun Yun, remembering the absurd events of the previous night, blushed slightly and lightly retorted, "Eat up, you might as well eat yourself to death!"
After that, the two seemed to run out of things to say, and the atmosphere fell silent again.
"You rest, I'll cultivate for a while longer."
Breaking the silence, Xiao Yan smiled at Yun Yun, then sat cross-legged on the stone platform beside him, closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state.
Yun Yun sat on the stone bed, staring at the boy's handsome face. After a long while, she sighed softly, slowly lay down, and murmured, "Sleep. When you wake up tomorrow, you'll forget everything."
As the stone cave gradually fell silent, after a long while, Xiao Yan, who had been cultivating with his eyes closed, opened them and turned his head to look at Yun Yun, who lay on the stone bed like a sleeping beauty.
He slowly walked down the stone platform and came to the stone bed. His gaze swept over the elegant and charming curves, and finally stopped on the beautiful face with slightly furrowed eyebrows. He stared intently at this pretty face that he might never be able to look at directly again.
A moment later, Xiao Yan took out a large black robe from his storage ring and gently draped it over Yun Yun's body.
Then he turned around and walked out of the cave. Nighttime was the peak time for monsters to appear, so he had to stay on guard at all times.
As Xiao Yan turned around, Yun Yun, who had been sleeping with her eyes closed, suddenly opened them and quietly watched the figure slowly disappear outside the cave. Her jade-like hand stroked the black robe covering her body, and her tranquil state of mind was inexplicably rippled.
"well…"
Inside the cave, a soft sigh slowly faded away.
...
Time flies, and five days have passed in the blink of an eye.
When the warm morning light shone through the branches onto the sleeping Xiao Yan, he opened his eyes, still somewhat sleepy. In that instant, he suddenly turned his head sharply.
Inside the cave, Yun Yun sat cross-legged on a stone bed, a strange longsword lying flat on her lap. Today, she was dressed in a snow-white dress.
The phoenix hair ornament on her head, which had been somewhat languid, was gathered up again, exuding a faint nobility. Her beautiful face was calm and elegant, and the fragility of the past few days had completely disappeared.
As if sensing Xiao Yan's awakening, Yun Yun slightly opened her eyes, her beautiful gaze sweeping over him, and said calmly, "Awake?"
The voice was faintly the same crisp and clear one as before, but this time it carried a cold and indifferent tone, like a conversation between strangers.
Xiao Yan's gaze swept over Yun Yun, and he slowly exhaled, turning his head to ask, "The seal has been broken?"
"Um."
Yun Yun nodded. She moved slightly and reappeared, standing directly in front of Xiao Yan. Her beautiful eyes lowered, staring at the handsome young man's face, as if trying to etch his image into her mind.
After a long pause, seeing Xiao Yan looking embarrassed, she finally said softly, "I'm leaving!"
After saying that, she didn't stop at all, turned around and walked straight out of the cave, her graceful steps beautiful and charming.
Looking up at the beautiful woman's retreating figure as she was about to emerge from the cave, Xiao Yan suddenly shouted, "I will work hard to cultivate and strive to one day be worthy of you, so that I can go to the Yunlan Sect to propose marriage to you!"
At the entrance of the cave, the pretty figure froze slightly, paused for a moment, and then stepped out again.
The beauty has departed, but the fragrance remains.
Xiao Yan stared blankly out of the cave, as if he had gone mad.
The tenderness of that day would remain forever in Xiao Yan's heart, and he would never forget it. Therefore, when the two parted, he impulsively uttered those words.
However, Xiao Yan had no regrets.
You must take responsibility for the mistakes you've made!
Ruthless and heartless, that's not Xiao's style.
Although Yun Yun was a bit older, she was incredibly charming and far superior to me in terms of looks, cultivation, background, and origins.
Age is not a problem, and height is not a barrier.
"Besides, if I let her be held in someone else's arms, what kind of man would I be?"
In his mind, if Yun Yun were to marry another man and be pleasured by someone else, Xiao Yan snorted coldly and quickly banished this absurd thought.
Now that the deed has already happened, Xiao Yan believes he should take responsibility for it.
As for that young girl Nalan Rongruo, let her do whatever she wants!
"But what about Xun'er..."
Suddenly, Xiao Yan remembered his childhood sweetheart, Xiao Xun'er, and his expression became somewhat unnatural. He muttered to himself, "No, if I get hung up on choosing who to have, wouldn't I have wasted this whole time I transmigrated? Haha, transmigrating is great! As long as I'm capable enough, I can have three wives and four concubines, or even a harem of three thousand beauties and no one would dare to say a word against it."
"This isn't modern society. What's wrong with having three wives and four concubines? As long as I can convince Xun'er, I think Yun Yun won't have any objections..."
