People are in the magic card, instigating rebellion against the world.

Chapter 209 Sakura's Transformation, the Star Wand! A Despicable Encounter with the Scheming Clownish Guy! (Bonus Chapter 1.6 words)

And Ye Huijun.

He appeared before her and told her about the Clow Cards and the cultivators.

It helped her through crisis after crisis.

He always appeared by her side when she needed him most, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

I will laugh with her when she is happy.

He would sigh helplessly when she did something foolish, and then help her clean up the mess.

Sakura's tears fell again, sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto her clothes.

But this time, the tears no longer contained sadness, but warmth.

She remembered everything!
She thought of her best friend, Tomoyo, who had always been by her side and supported her unconditionally!
She also remembered Ye Huijun, who always seemed cunning but was actually gentle and always silently protected her!
She was reminded of her brother Touya, who always liked to tease her but was the first to stand up for her when she was in danger!
And she remembered Snow Rabbit, who was like an older brother to her and always brought her warmth and a sense of security.

And then there's that gluttonous and unreliable Xiao Ke.

Chiharu chattered away.

Naoko, who always loves telling ghost stories.

Li Jia is gentle and kind.

Yamazaki-kun is a big talker, but he also seems very sincere.

The photo frame I put on the dining table, Mom!
And Dad...

Her favorite people are everyone!

It is all the people who stayed by her side, treated her with sincerity, loved her, and were deeply loved by her in return!
These precious bonds.

These are genuine emotions.

That's the most precious thing in her life!
She absolutely cannot lose her!

"I remembered..."

Sakura murmured to herself, slowly stood up from the ground, patted the dirt off her body, and wiped away the tears on her face.

The confusion and timidity that had been there before were no longer in those dark green eyes.

This isn't real.

Because she hasn't lost yet!

She cannot allow everything in the illusion to become reality.

She has to win!
To protect these precious emotions.

To protect all the important people in my life!
A bright light rekindled in Sakura's eyes.

That light shone with determination and courage, without a trace of confusion!
"thank you all."

Sakura gave a warm and sincere smile to the karuta card floating in front of her and the other Clow Cards that seemed to echo her from the depths of her being.

That was heartfelt gratitude, thanking them for awakening the bonds in her heart during her most vulnerable moment.

Then, she slowly raised her head and looked up at the sky.

As her resolve hardened, the illusion before her began to shatter inch by inch, peeling away like glass to reveal the true scene behind it.

The familiar Tokyo Tower still stands in the night, with a huge full moon hanging in the sky.

The figure of the Judge Moon hovered in mid-air.

The chill remains.

That cold, unfamiliar, and emotionless world is drifting away from her.

"I'm back!"

"Sakura!" Tomoyo called out excitedly from outside the barrier.

"Great! Kinomoto!" Li Meiling couldn't help but cheer, waving her fist vigorously with a joyful expression.

Looking at Xiaoying, who had regained her spirits, Ye Hui couldn't help but smile.

This is the Sakura he knows who never gives up!
[Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, has successfully broken through the illusion of her inner demons, and her Dao heart is becoming increasingly perfect! She has made full preparations to face the upcoming Ascension Tribulation!]

midair.

Sakura straightened her back, looked directly at the moon, and her eyes no longer darted away: "I don't want that kind of world!"

"Because a world without love, without attachments, without ties is truly too sad!"

Accompanied by her words.

A powerful magical force suddenly erupted from Sakura's body.

More turbulent and pure than ever before!
Ye Hui could clearly sense that this magic was no longer simply borrowing the power of the Clow Cards.

Instead, it merged perfectly with Sakura's own soul and will.

It became a power that truly belonged to her.

“This is…” Cerberus stared wide-eyed at Sakura in shock.

Sakura raised her magic wand high.

"The seal is lifted!"

The words fell.

The original bird-headed wand shone with dazzling starlight in her hand.

And the light grew brighter and brighter, enveloping her entirely.

The wand's shape began to slowly change.

The bird's head at the top gradually faded away, transforming into a three-dimensional five-pointed star, with faint starlight patterns entwined around the staff.

A unique magic wand that belongs only to Kinomoto Sakura.

This is how it was born!

"The wand... it's changed?" Cerberus opened his mouth, incredulous.

Ye Hui's heart stirred slightly as he watched this scene.

Goodbye, bird-headed staff.

From now on, it will be the Star Wand.

It must be said that the star wand is not bad-looking; in fact, it's quite nice.

However, it's not as distinctive as the bird-head staff.

But as far as wands are concerned, Ye Hui still prefers the bird-head wand.

"Well, since the wands have changed, I might make a bird-head wand model in the future, and maybe I can use it as a real wand."

[Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, has achieved a breakthrough in the midst of battle, perfecting her Dao Heart and successfully refining her natal magic weapon! The weapon's power is unfathomable, and its threat level to you has risen to the highest! If you do not go all out, you may face the danger of perishing!]

[As you gaze upon Kinomoto Sakura, wielding the Star Staff and radiating divine might, your fighting spirit is ignited! You believe this is what your destined rival should look like! You've decided to defeat her honorably in this highly anticipated duel, making her understand who the true future of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect truly is!]

System, you're such a battle maniac, can't you expect something good?

But I have to say it.

Sakura now.

It did indeed have a sense of divine might and grandeur.

Especially the combat suit that Tomoyo had meticulously designed for her.

Bathed in starlight, she shone even brighter, and she really did look quite radiant.

Tomoyo-chan's aesthetic sense is always trustworthy!

“Sakura…” Tomoyo looked at Sakura, who was shining brightly in mid-air, her purple eyes glistening with tears of excitement.

She really wanted Sakura to turn to one side, so that the photo would look better.

But when she thought that this was the final judgment and she couldn't disturb Sakura, she forcibly suppressed her impulse, just gripped the camera tightly and stared at Sakura's figure without blinking.

—No, we can't disturb her. We'll take as many photos as we want after the trial is over!

"Wind, become the chains that bind you!" Sakura raised her star wand.

This time, she didn't hesitate, and she didn't hold back just because the other party had the face of a snow rabbit.

"Grab him, Wind!" With her command, powerful wind elements surged from the Star Wand, rapidly condensing in the air into tough cyan chains that, accompanied by howling winds, coiled around the moon, sealing off all his escape routes.

“It’s no use.” Yue remained completely unmoved. “The wind is also one of my cards; you can’t use my cards to bind me.”

He stretched out his hand, a faint blue light emanating from his palm, as if trying to manipulate the power of the wind to dissipate the chains.

However, the blue chains did not obey his commands as he had expected.

Instead, as if it had gained its own consciousness, it bound him up faster and more tightly.

The chains tightened, binding his hands and feet firmly in front of him.

“How could this be…” Yue looked down at the wind chains binding her, a look of astonishment appearing on her face for the first time, a hint of confusion flashing in her cold eyes.

He could sense that the power of the Wind Card still existed, but it completely disobeyed his summons and instead submitted entirely to Sakura's will.

"We did it!" Sakura's eyes lit up.

"That's great, Sakura!" Tomoyo's purple eyes crinkled into a smile of relief, her heart finally at ease.

"Well done, Kinomoto!" Li Meiling excitedly pumped her fist.

Yue looked at the wind chains binding her, but did not struggle. She simply raised her head and looked at Sakura, her silver eyes revealing an unreadable emotion as she awaited Sakura's next move.

"moon."

Sakura looked at the moon she had trapped, slowly put away her Star Wand, and lowered her body until she was level with the moon.

Yue didn't answer, she just looked at her quietly.

"You must... really like Mr. Clow, right?" Sakura looked at him and asked softly.

She could sense that behind the moon's coldness lay a deep obsession with Clow Reed.

"In that case, you should understand how painful it is to forget someone you like, right?"

"I'm just a child. I don't have Mr. Kuro's magic or his strength."

"But I will try my best."

"I will strive to become a master that you can respect, a master who will not make you feel lonely."

"so……"

Sakura looked at the moon, stretched out her hands, and her dark green eyes were full of sincerity.

"I don't want to be your master."

I want to be your friend.

Sakura is really something...

They always manage to do things that are unexpected yet perfectly reasonable.

Use love and gentleness to resolve everything.

This is probably the most powerful force Sakura possesses.

Yue remained silent for a long time, so long that Sakura thought he was going to refuse.

“Close your eyes,” he said.

"Huh?" Sakura was taken aback.

"Hurry up," Yue urged.

Sakura didn't understand, but she still obediently closed her eyes.

Ye Hui watched from the side, unable to help but complain in his heart.

Another arrogant person.

Is it so hard to admit that you were moved?
After Sakura closed her eyes, Yue spread his white wings.

"The trial is over."

The sound of the moon echoed in the silent night sky.

"I, the Judge of the Moon, have determined that Sakura is our new master."

Ye Hui and Zhi Shi came to Xiao Ying's side.

"Great! Sakura! You did it!" Tomoyo hugged her.

"Kinomoto! You're amazing!" Li Meiling ran over and patted Sakura's shoulder hard.

"I knew you could do it!"

"Congratulations, Kinomoto-kun." Li Xiaolang also came over.

"Thank you everyone..." Sakura looked at her friends surrounding her, her eyes slightly red.

She succeeded.

"I knew Sakura could do it!" Cerberus exclaimed with pride.

Ye Hui looked at Xiaoying, who was surrounded by everyone, and the corners of his mouth curved up.

Just then, a powerful pulling force came from behind him.

It rendered him completely immobile.

"Hmm?" Ye Hui frowned.

This is... a spatial spell?
[You have been targeted by a mysterious force! Your weak strength is utterly powerless against powerful cultivators! You are about to be dragged into an unknown spatial-temporal turbulence!]

System, could you please stop trying to get attention at a time like this?
Ye Hui circulated his spiritual energy, attempting to escape the pulling force using spatial jump.

But unexpectedly, it didn't work.

If he wants to resist by force, that's not impossible.

However, this pulling force wasn't malicious; it was probably...

"Ye Huijun?" Zhi Shi noticed that something was wrong with him.

She turned her head and saw that Ye Hui's expression was somewhat solemn, and worry immediately filled his purple eyes.

"Ye Huijun, what's wrong?"

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +9】

"It's nothing," Ye Hui said with a reassuring smile.

"Something just suddenly came up that I need to take care of."

He turned to Sakura and said, "Sakura, congratulations. But I might have to leave for a bit."

"Eh? Ye Hui-jun, where are you going?" Xiaoying asked nervously.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +9]

"Going to see an acquaintance." Ye Hui smiled, his tone relaxed.

"Don't worry about me, I'll be back soon."

Someone has already secretly done so much work.

How can we not consider them acquaintances?
[You're about to be dragged into an unknown death trap, yet you're still trying to calmly reassure the Heavenly Spirit Root disciple, Kinomoto Sakura, and the Guardian, Daidouji Tomoyo! You believe that even if you're going to die, you should die with style, so you don't lose face in front of them!]

After Ye Hui finished speaking, the pulling force became even stronger.

"Ye Huijun!"

Before he lost consciousness, he heard Sakura and Tomoyo calling out anxiously.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +12]

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +13】

When Ye Hui regained full consciousness, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar place.

This is an endless starry sky.

There was no sky, no earth, not even air.

But he can breathe and move freely here.

"Where is this place?" Ye Hui looked around.

This space is filled with extremely powerful magic, creating an alternate dimension that exists independently of the real world.

As he suspected, there is probably only one person who could achieve this level of skill.

Kuro Rido.

An old fox who always likes to stir up trouble behind the scenes.

[You have been drawn into a blessed land created by the ancient powerful being Clow Reed! This place is governed by its own laws, completely isolated from the outside world! Escape is impossible!]

[You sensed the power of the person who owns this place, and your heart was filled with fear! You decided that if you ever saw him, you would immediately kneel down and beg for mercy; perhaps you could save your life!]

System, can't you have any backbone?
Ye Hui began to carefully observe the space.

In this starry sky composed of pure magic, each star seems to contain a unique law of power.

Wind, fire, water, earth...

Gold, wood, light, darkness...

And time, space...

Ye Hui could even sense a power from these stars that was similar to the power of the cultivation technique he was practicing.

This Clow Reed is truly extraordinary.

Just as Ye Hui was still feeling sentimental, ripples appeared in the starry sky in front of him.

A figure emerged from the depths of the starlight.

Although it was their first meeting, Ye Hui recognized him at a glance.

Kuro Rido.

It wasn't the first time, was it?
After all, I had seen it in Mizuto's memories.

"Hello." Clow Reed stopped in front of Ye Hui and greeted him with a smile.

His voice is gentle and makes people feel comfortable.

However, Ye Hui felt an indescribable sense of oppression emanating from him.

This guy……

It was just a fragment of a soul, yet it possessed such immense pressure.

Just how terrifying must he have been at his peak?
"You're Clow Reed?" Ye Hui looked at the man in front of him and raised an eyebrow.

Kuro Rido smiled and nodded: "Yes and no, I am just a fragment of Kuro Rido's soul."

"Don't be so nervous, I mean no harm."

It took so much effort to drag him from the real world to this godforsaken place...

No, wait, it's a godforsaken place where there aren't even any birds.

Just to tell him "I meant no harm"?
What a liar!
This is Clow Reed, a thousand-year-old fox who, even after death, can still calculate and scheme against everyone perfectly.

“Mr. Kuro, you didn’t invite me here just to admire the starry sky, did you?” Ye Hui took the initiative.

He didn't want to stand there passively, letting the other person look him up and down.

“Heh, you’re very perceptive.” Clow Reed’s smile deepened. “No wonder you were chosen by that child.”

Which child? Sakura?

Ye Hui muttered something to himself but didn't reply.

“I’m curious,” Kuroro said, scrutinizing him.

“You possess a power system I’ve never seen before. It’s ancient, pure, but also… incomplete.”

"I'm just a cultivator." Ye Hui shrugged.

“Cultivators…” Clow Reed showed an interested expression.

"An interesting point of view. However, I can sense that you and the cultivation system you're talking about seem somewhat out of place in this world."

You can even tell that?

His identity as a time traveler is probably about to be exposed.

Just as Ye Hui was pondering how to smoothly navigate this topic, Clow Reed changed the subject.

“I can sense that you have no ill intentions towards Sakura. On the contrary, you have been helping her and protecting her. I am very grateful for everything you have done for her.”

"Although I have set the path for the future of the Clow Cards, your appearance is a variable that no one could have predicted, a very good variable."

"Sakura is a kind and brave child, but sometimes she's too reckless. With you by her side, I feel much more at ease."

Hearing his words, Ye Hui lowered his guard a little.

It seems this guy didn't drag me here to cause trouble.

"So you called me here today just to tell me all this?" Ye Hui asked.

“Of course not.” Clow Reed shook his head.

The smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by a scrutinizing gaze.

"As a qualified guardian, your current strength is far from sufficient."

Ye Hui: “…”

Is this because they think he's bad at cooking?
"Your power system is very special. You have mastered the power of four elements: metal, wood, water, earth, but you are missing the most crucial element, fire."

Kuro Rido pinpointed Ye Hui's biggest weakness.

"The lack of one of the five elements disrupts the circulation. This not only limits your ability to improve but also leaves you helpless when facing certain enemies."

Ye Hui frowned.

He was well aware that he lacked the element of fire in his Five Elements.

But fire spirit roots aren't like cabbages; you can't just have them whenever you want.

He had tried various methods before, but all of them had little effect.

"So?" Ye Hui looked at him.

"Did Mr. Kuro call me here just to attack me?"

“Of course not.” Clow Reed smiled.

"I'm here to help you."

help me?

Ye Hui looked at him with some confusion.

"Your appearance has disrupted some of my plans, but it has also shown me a more interesting future," Clow Reed smiled slightly.

"I cannot directly interfere with Sakura's growth, nor can I directly grant you power. But..."

He extended his hand and gestured for Ye Hui to enter.

"I can give you a chance."

"What opportunity?" Ye Hui looked at him warily.

He didn't believe that this old fox would be so kind.

A smile crept onto Clow Reed's lips: "Play a match with me."

Ye Hui: “…”

After going around in circles, we still have to take action.

[You have encountered a challenge from the ancient and powerful Immortal Talisman Sect Master, Crow Rido! He attempts to probe the secrets of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect through combat! You are burning with anger and decide to teach him a lesson, to let him know that the disciples of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect are not to be trifled with!]

"What? You don't dare?" Clow Reed looked at Ye Hui's changing expression, his tone carrying a hint of provocation.

"Provocation won't work on me," Ye Hui said, pursing his lips.

He looked at Clow Reed, his mind racing.

Fighting a fragment of Clow Reed's soul is indeed very risky.

But the opportunities are equally enormous.

If, as he said, they could find an opportunity to replenish their fire elemental root during battle, then it would definitely be a profitable deal.

not to mention……

It seems he has no room to refuse now.

"Fine, let's fight." Ye Hui flexed his wrists.

"However, I have a condition."

"Oh?" Clow Reed looked at him with some surprise.

"tell me the story."

“If I win, you have to answer one question for me,” Ye Hui said.

He had many questions he wanted to ask about the world, about Clow Reed, and about the future.

"Sure," Clow Reed readily agreed.

He looked at Ye Hui, and the smile on his face became somewhat meaningful.

"Only if you can win against me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tremendous magical power erupted from his body.

Ye Hui's expression changed instantly.

This guy, he just showed up like that!
Ye Hui dared not be negligent in the slightest and immediately circulated the spiritual power within his body, setting up a golden light spell around himself.

"Quick reaction." Kuro Rido nodded approvingly.

He raised his hand: "Then let me see what's so special about your so-called 'cultivation of immortality'."

The stars around Ye Hui suddenly began to shake violently.

Immediately afterwards, countless arrows made of starlight rained down on him.

This force is many times stronger than the Arrows we encountered before.

"Earth Technique!"

Ye Hui growled.

A shield made of earth elemental power firmly protected him from behind.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Arrows pounded against the shield.

The shield swayed, and fine cracks appeared on it.

"Interesting." Clow Reed observed Ye Hui's defensive techniques.
"Using earth as a shield, taking the shape of the Black Tortoise, the intention is to make it indestructible. A very good idea, it's just a pity..."

He changed the subject.

"Your soil is too dead."

The arrows that struck the shield no longer dissipated, but instead transformed into vines.

It coiled around Ye Hui along the crack in the shield.

"Wood grows from earth, and your defenses have become a breeding ground for my attacks," Clow Reed explained with a smile.

Ye Hui remained calm.

He drew his Qingfeng sword, and the sharp sword energy severed all the vines that had been coiling around him.

"Use gold to control wood?" Kuro Rido's smile deepened as he watched Ye Hui's response.

"Your power system seems to emphasize the restraint and balance between elements. You have mastered four of them and are using them quite skillfully."

"It's just a pity that you lack fire."

This guy claims it's just a friendly exchange, but he's actually giving a lecture without holding back.

"Mr. Kuro, aren't you talking too much?" Ye Hui said irritably.

"Hehe, sorry, it's just a professional habit." Kuro Rido chuckled.

Occupational habits? What's your profession?
A charlatan? The kind who specializes in fooling people?

Clow Reed stopped talking and raised his hand, pointing gently at Ye Hui.

The entire starry sky came alive.

The star veered off its original trajectory and transformed into a meteorite burning with pale flames.

"Call the wind and rain!"

A torrential downpour attempted to extinguish the flames on the meteorite, but to little avail.

"It's no use," Clow Reed's voice rang out again, tinged with amusement.

"Your strength is comprehensive, but it ultimately lacks the most fundamental foundation."

It's fire again! This guy can't stop talking about fire!
So what if we lack fire?
He can still fight even without fire!
Simply defending and dodging won't solve the problem.

He must take the initiative.

Ye Hui ignored the meteorites falling from the sky.

Capture the thief first and capture the king!
Once the spellcaster, Clow Reed, is dealt with, these meteorites will naturally crumble on their own.

"Mysterious Dark Formless!"

Ye Hui's figure disappeared from the spot.

"Oh? A spell to conceal one's presence?" Clow Reed looked at the spot where Ye Hui had disappeared, a calm smile on his face.

"A very interesting technique, but unfortunately..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Hui's figure had already appeared behind him.

"Slay the demon!"

The Qingfeng sword, carrying a sharp sword aura, pierced towards Clow Reed's back.

Ye Hui used all his strength in this sword strike.

Even if the opponent were a fragment of Clow Reed's soul, it would be absolutely impossible for them to withstand this attack unscathed without any warning.

However, just as the sword tip was about to touch Clow Reed's clothes...

"hour!"

The entire starry sky seemed to freeze in that instant.

Ye Hui's body froze in mid-air, unable to move.

“Your idea is good. Attacking my main body is indeed the fastest way to break the deadlock.” Clow Reed turned around and slowly walked up to Ye Hui.

He reached out and gently flicked the blade of the Qingfeng sword.

"Unfortunately, you're still too slow."

Ye Hui: “…”

Being mocked to your face is an incredibly frustrating feeling.

[You are bound by the time laws of the ancient power Clow Reed, unable to move, and completely at his mercy! Despair fills your heart, and you begin to regret your impulsive actions! You've decided that if there's a next life, you will definitely…]

The law of time, right? Is that so amazing?

He has too.

"Give it to me...break it!"

The still starry sky resumed its flow.

Ye Hui's body was also freed.

“You…” Kuroro looked at Ye Hui, who had broken free of his restraints, and for the first time, a genuine expression of surprise appeared on his face.

"You actually managed to break my time?"

"Are you surprised?" Ye Hui steadied himself.

"It seems you have more secrets than I imagined," Clow Reed said thoughtfully.

"Likewise," Ye Hui retorted without backing down.

That old schemer, Clow Reed, has even more secrets than he does.

"Hehe, this is interesting." Clow Reed laughed again.

"Then let's end the warm-up exercises here."

Ye Hui activated the Zhou Tian Xu Yuan.

The starry sky began to distort.

"Oh? It can actually draw upon the power of the laws of this space?" Kuro Rido's face showed surprise again.

He nodded approvingly, then lifted his foot and lightly stomped it in mid-air.

"Certainly."

When his supernatural powers were forcibly interrupted, Ye Hui felt a sweet taste in his throat and blood welled up from the corner of his mouth.

“I told you it was useless.” Clow Reed walked slowly up to him and looked down at him.

"Your power is unique, and your potential is immense. But right now, you are still too weak."

"Admit it, you can't beat me."

Ye Hui wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up from the ground.

He took a deep breath and mobilized all the remaining spiritual energy in his body.

Metal, Wood, Water, Earth.

"If one force isn't enough, then let's use all four together!"

Ye Hui forcibly fused the four spiritual energies together.

This is a very dangerous move.

Different types of spiritual energy repel each other, and if one is not careful, it can cause the spiritual energy to go berserk.

At best, it causes serious injury; at worst, it causes the body to explode and die.

But now, Ye Hui can't care about that anymore.

"Oh? You want to forcibly fuse the power of four elements?" Clow Reed raised an eyebrow as he watched Ye Hui's actions.

"A good idea, but unfortunately..."

He shook his head, already foreseeing the outcome.

As the four spiritual energies were forcibly fused, a violent energy formed within Ye Hui's body.

This energy is like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.

Ye Hui's body began to tremble, and blood seeped from his skin.

"Damn it... Is it going to get out of control?"

Just when he was about to give up.

fire……

It's not just destruction.

It is also a new beginning, a hope, and a source of warmth.

In that instant, Ye Hui felt as if he had grasped something.

He calmed his mind and focused all his thoughts on understanding fire.

The Earth Fire Red Lotus Seed that had previously fused with his body began to emit a faint light.

A scorching yet incredibly gentle power surged from the depths of his dantian.

Then, it quickly merged into the raging, out-of-control energy.

Metal, Wood, Water, Earth, Fire.

Five different types of spiritual energy formed a perfect cycle within Ye Hui's body.

They are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, and life goes on endlessly.

"This is……"

Ye Hui could clearly feel that the spiritual power within his body was undergoing tremendous changes.

The original four spiritual energies, under the harmonization of the fire spiritual energy, were perfectly integrated, forming a completely new power.

The bottleneck of the late stage of Golden Core shattered at this moment.

His cultivation level began to surge wildly.

Peak of the late Golden Core stage!

Golden elixir great perfection!
Peak of the Golden Core Great Perfection!
……

Ye Hui focused his mind and circulated his cultivation technique with all his might, striving to reach a higher realm.

There is an insurmountable chasm between the Golden Core stage and the Nascent Soul stage.

Countless cultivators spend their entire lives trying to overcome this obstacle.

The golden core within Ye Hui's body began to spin rapidly. "Crack—"

The golden core shattered, transforming into the purest form of energy.

Immediately afterwards, a tiny figure, exactly like him but only the size of a palm, slowly formed at the center of the energy.

Nascent Soul!

Become!

You feel you've undergone a complete transformation, transcending the mortal realm! The mere secret treasures of the Immortal Talisman Sect are nothing but insignificant trinket in your eyes! You've decided that once you leave, you'll immediately take the Heavenly Spirit Root disciple, Kinomoto Sakura, and the Dharma Protector, Daidouji Tomoyo, to shatter the void and ascend to the Immortal Realm!

Ye Hui, you're bragging again.

He even ascended to the celestial realm.

It's only the early stage of Nascent Soul, okay?
Above that are the stages of Deity Transformation, Void Refinement, Body Integration, and Mahayana.

There is still a long way to go.

but……

Ye Hui felt the powerful energy within his body, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a smile.

My perception of the world around me has become countless times clearer than before.

He could even see the most fundamental lines of law that constitute this alternate dimension.

Ye Hui slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at Kuro Rido and smiled slightly: "I must thank Mr. Kuro for his kindness."

“I only gave you a chance; whether you can seize it is up to you,” Clow Reed said.

He looked at Ye Hui, and the smile on his face became somewhat playful.

"Now that you've broken through, can our sparring continue?"

Ye Hui raised an eyebrow.

This guy still wants to fight?
"of course."

Ye Hui moved his wrists, feeling the surging power within his body.

He also wanted to test just how strong he was at the Nascent Soul stage.

"Then, take this."

The stars gathered together, forming a Milky Way that stretches across the sky.

This strike was more powerful than any of the previous ones.

If it were the Ye Hui of the past, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand this attack for long.

but now……

Ye Hui looked at the surging Milky Way without the slightest fear on his face.

He held up a finger.

"Certainly."

Follow your words.

The surging Milky Way suddenly stopped in mid-air.

“Mr. Kuro, what you just said is useless.”

Ye Hui withdrew his finger, a smile playing on his lips.

"what about now?"

Kuro Rido remained silent.

"Now it's my turn."

What goes around comes around, and now it's his turn to fight back.

Kuro looked at Ye Hui.

He hadn't encountered an opponent who could pique his interest in a long time.

Today, perhaps I can finally stretch my muscles and get some exercise.

"Mr. Kuro, you just said that my power system emphasizes the restraint and balance between elements, right?" Ye Hui asked.

Kuro Rido paused for a moment, unsure of his intentions, but nodded nonetheless: "That's right."

"Then what do you think is the most basic element that constitutes this world, or rather, your alternate dimension?" Ye Hui asked again.

Kuro Rido did not answer, but simply waited quietly for him to continue.

"It is light, it is darkness, it is wind, it is fire, it is water, it is earth..."

Ye Hui stretched out his hand, and five different colored orbs of spiritual energy slowly appeared in his palm.

"It is the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, time, and space..."

"It is the most fundamental law that constitutes everything in this world."

"Your magic, though powerful, is ultimately inseparable from these most fundamental laws."

"but me……"

Ye Hui smiled slightly and gently pushed the five-colored light ball in his hand out.

"I happen to have a little bit of a rudimentary understanding of these principles."

The five-colored orbs of light spun in the air, emitting a soft glow.

Immediately afterwards, the entire alternate dimension began to tremble violently.

The stars formed by magic began to dim one by one.

Then it transforms into elemental particles and is absorbed by the five-colored light sphere.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing this scene, Kuro Rido's expression finally lost its composure.

He could feel that his control over this space was being rapidly weakened.

"It's nothing, I was just discussing the application of laws with you, Mr. Kuro," Ye Hui said, shrugging innocently.

He is now a powerful being in the Nascent Soul stage, and his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth is many times deeper than before.

Furthermore, with the Five Elements spiritual roots as a foundation, this space composed of magic power can be analyzed and decomposed.

It wasn't difficult for him.

Of course, this was also thanks to Kuro Rido's "kindness" in letting him observe the laws governing this space for so long.

It's a real shame that Clow Reed only has one soul fragment left.

There's no way to generate emotional value.

"you……"

Kuro looked at Ye Hui, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

He originally intended to give the kid some pointers through the fight, and also to see just how capable he really was.

Ironically, the alternate dimension became their "teaching tool."

It feels like the cabbage I've raised for years has been eaten by a pig.

"Mr. Kuro, shall we continue?" Ye Hui asked with a smile.

Kuro Rido remained silent for a moment, then finally sighed helplessly.

He waved his hand, and the countless stars in the sky disappeared.

"I lost."

Ye Hui looked at Clow Reed with some surprise.

So you're just admitting defeat like that? That's too hasty, isn't it?

"Mr. Kuro, you wouldn't be... deliberately letting me win, would you?" Ye Hui asked tentatively.

"What do you think?" Clow Reed rolled his eyes at him, annoyed.

He now seriously doubts whether bringing this guy here was the right decision.

[You have defeated the remnants of the divine consciousness of the ancient powerhouse, Clow Reed! You believe you have crushed the founder of the Immortal Talisman Sect, and your fame will resound throughout the entire cultivation world! From this day forward, you will become a new legend in the cultivation world!]

Fortunately, it was just a fragment of Clow Reed's soul.

However, as long as we win, that's all that matters.

Ye Hui felt incredibly satisfied looking at the sullen-faced Clow Reed.

Finally, we managed to get back at them after being mocked.

"Cough cough."

Ye Hui cleared his throat and reminded him, "Mr. Kuro, you promised that if I win, you'll have to answer one question for me."

Kurodo glanced at him and nodded: "Ask away."

"I want to know..." Ye Hui looked at him and asked the question that was on his mind.

"About Sakura's future."

He continued, "I know you've arranged everything for her. But I'm wondering, what happens after that? What happens after all the Clow Cards turn into Sakura Cards?"

After the story of the Clow Cards ends, there is the story of the Clear Cards.

He wanted to get some more accurate information about the future from Clow Reed.

Kuro Rido was not surprised to hear his question.

He was silent for a moment, then slowly began to speak.

"The end of the Clow Cards is not the real end, but a new beginning."

"Sakura's magic is still growing. When her power reaches a certain level, it will attract new power."

"That force is both an opportunity and a crisis."

"At that time, someone will appear by her side."

"That person will be her new partner, or she may become her new enemy."

New allies, or perhaps new enemies?
Ye Hui frowned.

Is this referring to Akiho and Kaito?

"Who exactly is that person?" Ye Hui pressed.

Kuro Rido shook his head: "I can't say too much, it's a secret. I can only tell you that that person, like you, is also a variable."

[You have glimpsed the secrets of the future! You discover that in the near future, a powerful evil cultivator will descend upon this world, intending to seize the destiny of Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple with a Heavenly Spiritual Root! Alarm bells are ringing in your heart, and you decide to strike first before that evil cultivator appears, completely taking control of Kinomoto Sakura!]

Ye Hui had already made up his mind.

"Okay, I've answered your question."

Kuro looked at Ye Hui, a gentle smile returning to his face.

"As a thank you for keeping an old man like me company and helping him exercise, I'll also give you a small gift."

Gift?

Ye Hui looked at him with some curiosity.

What is that old fox up to now?

Clow Reed reached out and gently touched Ye Hui's forehead.

Ye Hui had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and his still unstable state was rapidly stabilizing.

Moreover, he felt that he had gained a deeper understanding of the laws governing this world.

“This is…” Ye Hui looked at Clow Reed with some surprise.

"It's just a tiny bit of help," Clow Reed said with a smile, withdrawing his hand.

"Although your foundation is solid, it was a forced breakthrough after all, and your realm is still unstable. I'm just helping you to better solidify your own power."

"It will also give you a deeper understanding of the laws of this world. This way, you will be more adept at using power in the future."

This guy……

Ye Hui originally thought that Clow Reed was a cunning old fox who was scheming against everyone.

Now it seems he wasn't so bad after all?
[You have received the inheritance and empowerment of the ancient great being Clow Reed! Your cultivation has been greatly consolidated, and your understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth has reached a new level! You have decided that after you leave, you will immediately go into seclusion to cultivate, strive to ascend as soon as possible, and then return to dig up Clow Reed's grave to repay today's kindness!]

System, can you please act like a human being?

Someone just helped me, and you're already thinking about digging up their grave.

That's absolutely despicable.

"Thank you." Ye Hui sincerely thanked Clow Reed.

Whatever this guy's purpose was, he really did me a big favor today.

"You're welcome," Kuroro waved his hand.

"Helping you is also helping Sakura. With you by her side, I can feel much more at ease."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I wanted to remind you of."

"what's up?"

“The girl next to you who has a water elemental root…” Clow Reed said.

"Her constitution is very special, and she has a high affinity for the laws of water."

"If we nurture her well, her future achievements will definitely not be lower than Sakura's."

Tomoyo-chan?
Ye Hui was stunned for a moment.

He knew that Zhi Shi possessed spiritual roots, and he had been teaching her how to cultivate immortality.

All we know so far is that she has great talent, but we haven't really noticed any special physical constitution.

[From the ancient powerful being Clow Reed, you learn the true identity of the Dharma Protector Tomoyo! She is actually the legendary Xuanming Dao Body, born in harmony with the Dao of Water! You are overjoyed, believing that as long as you can completely win her over, your cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds!]

"I understand." Ye Hui nodded, keeping Clow Reed's words in mind.

"Alright, I don't have much time left."

Clow Reed's figure began to become somewhat illusory.

"I've said what I should and shouldn't have said. The rest of the journey is up to you."

"Remember, no matter what happens in the future, believe in your own strength and believe in your companions."

"Especially you."

Kuro looked at Ye Hui and gave him one last piece of advice.

"Don't be fooled by what you see; feel with your heart."

After saying that, his figure completely disappeared into the starry sky.

As he disappeared, the entire alternate dimension began to shake violently.

This is a sign that the space is about to close.

Ye Hui closed his eyes and quietly waited to be "spit out" by this space.

……

Under Tokyo Tower.

Sakura and Tomoyo looked anxiously at the spot where Ye Hui had disappeared.

"Ye Huijun...why hasn't he come back yet?"

Sakura was so anxious she was about to cry.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +15]

Just now, right after Yue announced the end of the trial, Ye Huijun's body was suddenly enveloped in a ball of white light and then disappeared.

No matter how much they shouted, there was no response.

"Sakura, don't worry." Tomoyo was worried herself, but she still tried to calm herself down and comforted Sakura.

"Ye Huijun is so capable, he'll definitely be fine."

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +14】

"You brat, where have you been?" Cerberus muttered.

[Kerberos's Mood Value +10]

Just when everyone was at a loss, a white light flashed.

Ye Hui reappeared before everyone.

"Ye Huijun!"

Sakura and Tomoyo saw him and shouted almost simultaneously, then ran towards him together.

"Ye Huijun! Are you alright? Where did you go just now?" Xiaoying ran up to him.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +12]

"I am fine."

Ye Hui felt a warmth in his heart when he saw the worried looks on their faces.

He reached out and ruffled Xiaoying's hair: "I just went to see an old friend and chatted for a while."

"An old friend?" Sakura tilted her head.

"You brat! You scared me to death!" Cerberus strode over and rammed its head hard into Ye Hui's chest.

[Kerberos's Mood Value +10]

"I thought you'd been kidnapped by some monster!"

"I'm back now, aren't I?" Ye Hui patted its head in an annoyed tone.

Li Xiaolang and Li Meiling walked over.

"It's good that you're alright," Li Xiaolang said coolly.

[Li Xiaolang's Mood Value +10]

"Yeah, you better not disappear again next time!" Li Meiling chimed in.

[Li Meiling's mood score +10]

[You've returned from the brink of death! Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spirit Root, and Daidouji Tomoyo, a protector of the Dharma, weep with joy, and in their excitement, they almost offered themselves to you!]

Tomoyo suddenly exclaimed "Eh!"

She looked at Ye Hui, her purple eyes filled with curiosity: "Ye Hui, you seem... a little different."

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +8】

"Really?" Ye Hui blinked.

Tomoyo is now a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and her perception of spiritual energy is much more acute than Sakura's and the others.

"Yes." Tomoyo nodded seriously.

“In the past, Ye Huijun, though unfathomable, could still sense the boundaries.”

"But Ye Huijun now..."

Tomoyo thought for a moment: "There's absolutely no end in sight."

"Really? I didn't notice anything?" Sakura asked curiously.

She looked at him for a while, then shook her head: "I feel that Ye Huijun is still the same as before, there's no change."

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]

“No, things have changed,” Li Xiaolang said.

"Your aura is much stronger than before; I can hardly breathe."

[Li Xiaolang's Mood Value +8]

"Is it really that exaggerated? I feel like he's still the same as before," Li Meiling said, somewhat puzzled.

[Li Meiling's mood score +8]

"It's probably because the old friend I just met is quite capable," Ye Hui said with a slight smile.

"I chatted with him for a while and absorbed some of his aura, which is why you think I've become stronger."

"Really?" Sakura was somewhat skeptical.

"You brat! You must have secretly eaten something delicious! That's why you got stronger!" Cerberus felt he had hit the nail on the head and pointed out the "truth".

"Tell us the truth! Did you go out and eat alone behind our backs?"

[Kerberos's Mood Value +10]

Ye Hui said irritably, "I almost lost my life, and you're still thinking about eating?"

"What? You're in danger?" Sakura immediately tensed up upon hearing this.

"Ye Huijun, are you injured? Where are you hurt?"

As she spoke, she reached out to examine Ye Hui's body.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +13]

"I'm fine, Sakura." Ye Hui quickly took her hand.

He reassured her, "It was just a friendly spar with an old friend. I suffered a minor injury, but it's all healed now."

"So, did you win or lose?" Li Meiling asked curiously.

"Of course I won," Ye Hui replied without any modesty.

Although the victory was somewhat lucky, a win is a win.

"I knew Ye Huijun was amazing!" Xiaoying looked at him with sparkling eyes.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +10]

"Tch, bragging." Cerberus muttered under his breath.

It didn't believe that Ye Hui, that brat, could defeat the mysterious person who dragged him into the other dimension.

That guy's magic is stronger than it and the moon combined.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Ye Hui changed the subject.

"Now that the trial is over, shall we clean up the scene?" Ye Hui glanced at the surrounding environment.

Although the damage caused by the ground sign has been repaired, the tourists who were knocked unconscious by the sleeping sign are still lying on the ground and fast asleep.

If we don't wake them up soon, it'll probably be on the news by morning.

"Oh right! And everyone else too!" Sakura only remembered after he reminded her.

She quickly took out the Sleeping Talisman to dispel the spell.

After doing all this, Sakura breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, it's resolved."

Cerberus yawned: "I should change back too."

With a flash of light, it transformed back into a palm-sized doll.

"Ah... this is still the most comfortable." Xiao Ke stretched and then buried her head in Xiao Ying's arms.

Ye Hui shook his head helplessly.

That guy, Xiao Ke, he really can't be cool for more than three seconds.

But where did the moon go? And what about the snow rabbit?

[Under your wise guidance and selfless dedication, Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, successfully overcame her inner demons, refined her natal magic weapon, and survived the final tribulation before ascension! The legacy of the Immortal Talisman Sect has been continued, and the future of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect is bright!]

[Ding! You have completed the main quest – “The Last Judgment”! You have received the reward ability “Knowing the Time”!]

[Knowing the Time: Understanding the laws governing the operation of Heaven; being able to discern celestial secrets through calculation; this is the art of foresight.]

Just as they were about to leave, Ye Hui paused.

He seemed to have heard something.

With his powerful senses at the Nascent Soul stage, he easily picked up the conversation coming from afar.

It's Touya and Mizuki.

The two of them stood at the corner of the shrine's backyard.

Ye Hui slowed his pace without making a sound.

"You've been watching from the sidelines the whole time, haven't you?" Mizuki's voice was soft, with a hint of a smile.

"It's alright." Touya's voice sounded no different from usual.

"After all, Sakura is there, and I'm worried about her."

"You knew all along that Moon City wasn't human, didn't you?"

Touya was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes."

He admitted it readily.

"Then you should know how powerful he really is. Aren't you worried that Sakura will lose?" Mizuki asked.

"Sakura may seem clumsy, but she's my sister. She won't lose so easily. Besides... there's that brat around, what do I have to worry about?"

"However, if he dares to have any bad intentions towards Sakura, I will definitely not let him get away with it."

Ye Hui: “…”

He sighed helplessly.

……

A few days after returning from Tokyo, life returned to its usual tranquility.

After Ye Hui broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, he felt that his perception of the world had become much clearer.

In addition to magic, there was also some energy floating in the air that he had never noticed before.

Clow Reed...

I have to admit, he really did me a big favor.

And those final words he reminded himself of...

Regarding Tomoyo's special constitution, and that new variable that will appear in the future.

Sakura successfully passed the final judgment and became the true master of the Clow Cards.

Although Snow Rabbit's true identity made her depressed for a short time, she quickly cheered up with everyone's company and comfort.

After all, whether Yukito is just Yukito or a fake identity of Judge Yue, he will always be Yukito.

This will not change.

However, Sakura and Tomoyo had another big event.

Yuzhi Elementary School, break time.

Sakura peeked her head out from the classroom door.

Upon seeing Ye Hui, she immediately shrank back.

After a while, she poked her head out again and waved to Tomoyo.

Seeing her movement, Tomoyo smiled apologetically at Ye Hui and said, "Ye Hui-kun, I'm going over for a bit."

After saying that, she walked towards the classroom door.

Ye Hui blinked.

With his current level of cultivation, if he wanted to, no sound or movement could escape his ears.

"Tomoyo, what do you think about having the party at Ye Huijun's house?" Sakura's voice reached his ears clearly.

“I think it’s possible, but… we’re celebrating Ye Huijun’s birthday, even if it’s a belated celebration, how can we keep it from him?” Zhi Shi asked uncertainly.

"We can keep it from him for now! We can give him a big surprise later!" Sakura said excitedly.

"Besides, Ye Huijun's house is so big, we can invite a lot of people over, it will definitely be very lively!"

"..."

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +10]

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +10】

Ye Hui listened to their discussion.

So they were discussing his birthday party.

Actually, it doesn't really matter whether you do it or not, since it's already passed.
However, choosing his house as the venue is really... not surprising at all.

After all, his house is so big, and nobody cares about it.

It is indeed the best place to have a party.

I wonder how Sakura and Tomoyo plan to trick him, their "master," out of the house?

As Ye Hui pondered this, he turned a page of his book.

He decided to cooperate fully with their performance.

[The Heavenly Spirit Root disciple, Kinomoto Sakura, along with the Dharma Protector Daidoji and others, are plotting a grand ceremony for you, attempting to completely corrupt your Dao heart and make you addicted to pleasure, unable to extricate yourself!]

You see right through them, you've already seen through their scheme! But you're feigning ignorance, actually playing hard to get, preparing to turn the tables on them!

Lunch break.

Just as Ye Hui took out his lunchbox, Sakura and Tomoyo came over.

"Ye Huijun, we're going to have dinner on the rooftop later."

Rooftop?

Ye Hui raised an eyebrow.

Don't we usually eat near the teaching building? Why did you suddenly want to go to the rooftop today?
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

"Okay." Ye Hui nodded, not refusing.

Upon arriving at the rooftop, Ye Hui discovered that in addition to the three of them, Chiharu, Naoko, and Rika were also there.

When they saw Ye Hui approaching, their expressions became somewhat unnatural.

"Ye Hui, you're here," Qian Chun greeted him.

"Okay." Ye Hui nodded and sat down next to them.

Sakura and Tomoyo exchanged a glance, then sat down as well.

"Um... Ye Hui-jun." Sakura poked at the rice in her bento box, "We...we have a question we want to ask you."

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +7]

"What's the problem?" Ye Hui looked up at her with an innocent expression.

"It's just...it's just..." Sakura stammered for a long time.

“That’s right, Mr. Ye Hui,” Tomoyo said with a smile.

"We wanted to ask you, is there any food you particularly dislike? Even though we've been together for so long, it seems like Ye Huijun doesn't have any food he dislikes."

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +8】

"I don't think I have any particular food I dislike," Ye Hui replied.

"Huh? Really? Not even a little bit?" Sakura asked, somewhat unwilling to give up.

"For example, bitter melon? Green bell pepper? Carrot?"

"They're all fine." Ye Hui nodded.

"What? Ye Hui is so boring. He doesn't even have any food that I don't like." Chiharu muttered under her breath.

“That’s right, this way we’ll have far fewer opportunities to tease him,” Naoko agreed.

Hey, hey, hey, you two are whispering way too loudly!

He heard everything, okay?
Ye Hui silently complained in his heart.

“However…” Ye Hui changed the subject.

"Although I don't have any foods I dislike, I do have high standards for food quality."

"Quality requirements?" Sakura tilted her head.

"Mm." Ye Hui nodded.

He said in a serious tone, "For example, the ingredients used for cooking must be fresh, the control of the heat must be precise, and the proportion of seasonings must be just right."

"Ye Huijun, you're so strict! I've never noticed it before," Xiaoying pouted.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]

"There's nothing I can do about it, I'm just a picky eater," Ye Hui said, shrugging.

While Sakura turned to talk to Naoko and the others.

Zhi Shi's purple eyes curved into a smile: "Ye Huijun, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +8】

Ye Hui blinked: "How could that be?"

Tomoyo chuckled softly.

After lunch break, Sakura and Tomoyo and the others got together again.

This time, they did not discuss it in front of Ye Hui.

Instead, he secretly ran to the grove behind the teaching building.

"What should we do? Ye Huijun seems to have guessed that we're going to throw him a birthday party," Xiaoying said, somewhat distressed.

“I think so too.” Tomoyo nodded, a smile appearing in her purple eyes.

"Should we continue?" Chiharu asked.

"Of course we'll continue!" Sakura clenched her little fist and said with a determined look.

"So what if he guessed it? We'll still give him the best birthday party ever!"

Naoko: "That's right, and the more that's the case, the more we need to do it even better than he imagines! We need to surprise him!"

Li Jia: "I agree!"

"So, that's settled! We're going to give Ye Huijun an even bigger birthday party than mine!" Sakura announced with high spirits.

[The treacherous ambitions of Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, and Daidouji Tomoyo, a protector of the sect, are now blatantly obvious! They are plotting a grand ceremony to seize the opportunity to unite major forces both within and outside the sect and ultimately sideline you!]

System, your ability to fill in the blanks is still so excellent.

Imagine a birthday party as a power struggle; that's your unique style.

"How can we arrange things to create a surprising effect?" Chiharu asked.

"Don't worry about that," Tomoyo said with a smile, sounding confident.

"I've already asked my family's bodyguard company to survey the layout of Ye Huijun's villa in advance. As long as we set up according to the design, everything will be foolproof."

The corners of Ye Hui's mouth twitched.

Tomoyo-chan, when did you do this?

[The Dharma Protector Daidoji Tomoyo has already secretly laid a tight net, monitoring your cave from top to bottom! She knows your every move and is just waiting for the right moment to launch a thunderous attack!]

"What about the food? Will Ye Hui like what we make?" Naoko remembered what Ye Hui had said at noon.

"This..." Sakura was also at a loss.

She had absolutely no confidence in her cooking skills.

Zhi Shi's purple eyes curved into a smile: "Although the taste may not be as good as Ye Huijun's, the sentiment is the most important."

"What about a gift? What would be a good gift?" Li Jia asked.

"I haven't decided yet," Sakura said, biting her finger in frustration. "Ye Huijun seems to have everything he needs."

"Yes, I've been thinking about this too," Tomoyo said, also looking troubled.

He truly has everything he needs.

However, he would be happy as long as it was a card from Sakura and Tomoyo, even if it was just a greeting card.

Of course, he wouldn't say such a thing.

It's also a pleasure to watch them rack their brains for their gifts.

You've already seen through their scheme. Their so-called cultivation resources are nothing more than sugar-coated bullets to win people over! You've decided to wait and see what tricks they can pull, so you can settle accounts with them one by one in the future!

Sakura and Tomoyo were acting all mysterious all afternoon.

It's like some kind of underground rendezvous.

To play along with them, Ye Hui simply lay down on the table and pretended to be asleep.

He could feel Tomoyo's gaze falling on him several times.

Tomoyo-chan must know he's pretending to be asleep.

However, she didn't expose them; instead, she cooperated with Sakura and the others' performance with great interest.
