Peerless Heiress - Chapter 146
Mo Gu Zi was on the verge of collapse. Heavens above! That was the most precious treasure of heaven and earth—the Heavenly Furnace! This girl, this girl, actually used such a precious treasure to cook things?! What a waste!
He stood up shakily, wanting to snatch the Heavenly Furnace back first, but as soon as he moved, a strong, strange smell rushed into his nostrils, ah—achoo!
What, what does it taste like?
Mo Gu Zi paused for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up.
Having lived for hundreds of years, spending most of his time studying treasures, no one was more sensitive to the spiritual energy contained within unusual objects than him. Heavens, this Heavenly Furnace—he'd used it to refine pills countless times, serving no other purpose than to make the pills purer. But...but what did this girl put inside? Why did even the wisps of mist contain such intense, strange spiritual energy? If the mist was like this, what terrifying power must the broth inside possess?!
Mo Gu Zi immediately fell silent, scratched his messy hair, and obediently sat down, staring longingly at Qing Yan's hand, his eyes almost falling into the soup.
He didn't see that beside him sat a small pine fox in the exact same posture as him, but it had been sitting there for a long time and seemed even more focused than him. The pine fox's small, red tongue unconsciously darted out, gently licking its lips, as if savoring some exquisite delicacy.
Mo Yu and Qing Yan's eyes met. Mo Yu gently parted his lips and gave her a lazy yet focused smile. He was lightly wrapped in a large bamboo robe, his long hair loosely draped over his shoulders. His features were exquisitely handsome, with long, thick eyelashes that he lazily lifted. His thin, red lips parted slightly, revealing a sliver of pale white skin.
Qingyan suddenly blushed, hurriedly turned her gaze away, bit her lower lip, feeling somewhat guilty.
Mo Yu chuckled softly.

In the dense peach grove, I sat atop a tree. My bare feet swung gently in mid-air. Mo Yu sat opposite me, leaning against the tree trunk, his eyes slightly closed, playing the flute with lowered lashes.
His long hair, along with the hem of his clothes, fluttered among the branches and leaves, carrying a faint fragrance.
"Mo Yu," I said softly, resting my chin on my hand as I looked at him. "You're really handsome."
The flute music didn't stop, and Mo Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, his cheeks quietly flushing. I blinked, then blinked again, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, you can actually blush?"
The tone suddenly went off, and Mo Yu's lips curled up. He opened his eyes and looked at me helplessly, "Didn't you want to hear me play the flute? What are you doing here causing trouble now?"
I chuckled and said, "Let's see how well you resist interference. Aren't you the most composed person? Even your master said you're a little monster. He said he's never taken advantage of you since we were kids."
Just then, we heard shouts and noises coming from afar. It was Mo Gu Zi, the old Taoist, trying to steal my master's old monster's demon soup. He'd been making a fuss for ages and still hadn't finished.
Thinking about how that little squirrel would put on a pitiful act and accuse me when I got back, I couldn't help but shudder. Seriously, I never expected that old Taoist priest would have no concept of Taoism or demons, only focused on cultivating immortality, and actually go and steal the demon soup from my master!
sweat. . .
"Qingyan, is something on your mind?" Mo Yu looked at me scrutinizingly, his gaze sharp as if he could see right through me in an instant.
I was startled, but quickly regained my composure and smiled, "What nonsense are you talking about? What could possibly be on my mind?"
Mo Yu remained noncommittal.
My gaze drifted out of the valley, filled with longing. "Sigh, I've been stuck in this valley for over a month. It's so boring. I want to get out."
Mo Yu chuckled, "This one? Okay."
Well?!
He said... okay?
Mo Yu nodded and said softly, "I know you won't be staying long. How about we wait a couple more days while I take care of some things, and then I'll go out with you?"
I was stunned for a moment, and facing his calm, autumn-water-like gaze, I couldn't help but nod.
A smile suddenly bloomed on Mo Yu's face.
It's beautiful.
Chapter 346: The Final Chapter (6)
The lamp flame gently burst open, revealing a woman sitting under it, lost in thought, her chin resting on her hand. Beside her, a snow-white pine fox lazily yawned and gently crouched down beside her.
Really, are you leaving?
Qingyan gently, unconsciously, stroked the bracelet on her left wrist. This jade bracelet had been seen through at a glance after her master suddenly received some spiritual power attached to Mo Gu Zi's spiritual net.
She gently raised her left hand, and the jade ring, illuminated by the candlelight, shone with a silvery-white luster.
Perhaps even Mo Yu doesn't know that this bracelet is actually another portal to another dimension, capable of opening the barrier between this dimension and other dimensions. However, that barrier doesn't lead to her dimension.
The world is vast and complex. Due to the interweaving of space and time in its structure, countless different worlds exist simultaneously in different spaces and times, or in different spaces and times.
She already knew this a long time ago, when she helped various little girls travel through time and space to collect energy flows for their masters to cultivate. However, she only realized now that in each time and space, there are one or more time and space gates that break through the barrier, used to connect to other time and space.
Back then, the reason why Master was able to break through space and time and allow people to travel was simply because he had a thousand years of cultivation and the Earth Cauldron, a supreme treasure of heaven and earth, was used as a guide. Therefore, after Cheng Jue forcibly shut down the space-time barrier, Master's only option was to travel through time to find her.
Now, she has a portal to time and space, and her master, though he has lost his thousand years of cultivation, has the Heavenly Furnace. He can slowly begin to cultivate, and the faint spiritual power of the Earth Cauldron in his body will resonate with the dark Earth Cauldron in the drawer at home, guiding them to find their way home in the journey through time and space.
How can we not leave?
She was a mortal, her life lasting no more than a hundred years, which was a fleeting moment for her master, who had a long lifespan.
But his master's thousand-year-old spiritual power has been sealed, preventing him from merging with the Earth Cauldron. Without this seal, the seal cannot be broken, and he will be constantly threatened by crazed Taoist priests like Zhenhe. What will he do if she dies? In the vast expanse of time and space, without her, his current master will never find his way home.
How can we not leave?

Mo Yu chuckled, "I didn't expect you to be so rich. So much jewelry, just to punish someone, don't you feel any pain?"
...
"Girl, have you ever had a crush on anyone?"
