Fellow Daoist Entrusts His Child: Immortality Begins with Nurturing a Demoness

Chapter 67 Punishment, Taking on a Disciple (Combined Chapters 1, 2, and 3)
Luo Fanchen spent most of the two days in deep sleep and finally recovered some of his energy.

The meridians in my dantian are still very weak, but at least I'm no longer in a state of needing to lean against a wall.

"Master Luo, I'm sorry, I'll never do it again."

Inside the side hall, Luo Fanchen sat solemnly, holding a vine in his hand, covered with a thin, almost transparent layer of Yi Wood True Essence.

In front of him, Mo Xue lowered her head timidly, her small hands tentatively grasping his sleeve and swaying it gently, her lips pouting and acting coquettishly.

"I know I was wrong, Master Luo, please forgive me this time."

"Ha, I'll forgive you for being too naive, but it disagrees."

Luo Fanchen gently waved the vine in his hand. Two days ago, Mo Xue had been too naughty, and there were signs that he would find it difficult to handle her.

He needs to restore his authority as soon as possible, otherwise, once the girl has tasted the sweetness, he won't be able to get a good night's sleep until he recovers his true energy.

In addition, he keenly sensed that Mo Xue's dependence on him was showing signs of changing and needed to be guided in time. The girl was about to enter the Taoist sect and had a bright future, while he was just a thief of magic wanted by the Xuanmen.

Once he truly understands that the girl has grown up, he will guide Mo Xue to recognize her true feelings.

If, at that time, the girl remains steadfast in her beliefs, he will not run away from the outcome but will respond directly.

"Oh, Master Luo, you actually punished me!"

"Open your hands."

Luo Fanchen pretended to be serious, while Mo Xue pouted pitifully, her almond-shaped eyes filled with mist, looking utterly pitiful.

Luo Fanchen almost softened, but his eyes hardened again when he touched the still-present hickeys on his neck.

"Shrug."

"Um, Master Luo, I still need to practice my sword."

Mo Xue shakily spread out her small hands, her beautiful eyes darting around mischievously before she pursed her lips into a sly, wicked smile.

"Then the calves."

"Sword practice involves using your hands, wrists, legs, and waist. Master Luo wouldn't want to delay my cultivation, would he?"

Luo Fanchen frowned slightly, wanting to back down, but then he caught sight of Mo Xue's playful lips and felt a pang of sadness. After looking her up and down, he finally found the spot where the girl's sword practice was useless and where she was too fleshy to see anything.

"Hehe, you naughty little girl, you're going to get a spanking."

Luo Fanchen narrowed his eyes, put his thighs together, and gently patted them, gesturing for Mo Xue to lie down on top of him.

"Hmph! I, Master Luo, am no longer a little girl."

Mo Xue's narrow eyes narrowed into a triumphant smile. She muttered words of rejection, but her body moved in small, hesitant steps, half-heartedly crawling onto Master Luo's lap.

With their skin pressed together, Mo Xue could smell the faint sandalwood scent belonging to Master Luo at the tip of her nose.

Her flat stomach pressed close to Luo Ye's calf, inseparable, the delicate warmth and soft touch transmitted through her knee to her skin.

Luo Fanchen's expression changed slightly, vaguely sensing that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"If Master Luo wants to punish me, then punish me."

Mo Xue lowered her head slightly, revealing her fair neck and glistening earlobes amidst her dark hair.

Luo Fanchen hesitated. So far, apart from their first meeting, he had never truly punished Mo Xue. He felt a pang of heartache at the thought of actually taking action, even though the vine would only cause physical pain.

"From now on, you are not allowed to get into my bed without my permission."

Luo Fanchen sighed softly, but in the end he still gripped the rattan cane tightly and gently lashed it against Mo Xue's slightly immature buttocks.

"Snap—Ugh!"

The rattan pierced the air, causing her soft flesh to tremble slightly. Mo Xue's lips were tightly pressed together, her cheeks flushed with powder, and her soft buttocks seemed to bulge slightly from the stinging pain. Her delicate body was almost taut like a crescent moon, and one of her embroidered shoes had been kicked off at some point.

Her buttocks burned with a fiery, stinging pain. Mo Xue gently nibbled at her index finger with her pearly teeth, trying to endure the pain but still unable to suppress her sobs.

It was slightly painful, but within tolerable limits. Unfortunately, it was just a rattan cane.
"Consider this a lesson you learned. Get up."

"Only once?"

"Ok?"

Luo Fanchen was slightly taken aback and didn't come to his senses for a moment. Mo Xue pouted and shyly changed her words.

"Even if Master Luo punishes me, I'll still go to bed with him in the future. Master Luo, why don't you just do the whole month's amount at once?"

"you"

Luo Fanchen was speechless. He raised the rattan cane high in his hand. Mo Xue, like a frightened cat, drooped her head and closed her almond eyes tightly. After a long while, she finally opened a slit to peek at her. Her immature buttocks were slightly raised, as if she wanted to resist.

"Snapped--"

Luo Fanchen clearly went a bit too far this time, and Mo Xue's entire body trembled.

Mo Xue covered her lips, tears welling in the corners of her eyes. Her almond-shaped eyes gazed at Luo Fanchen with a pitiful look. The latter felt pity and thought to himself that he had gone too far. Unexpectedly, the girl whimpered and lowered her head, tensing her waist.

"Master Luo, even if you beat me to death, I'll still crawl into bed with you."

"Fine, fine, you've got guts. I don't believe it."

Luo Fanchen lashed out with his whip five times in a row, causing Mo Xue's buttocks to burn with a fiery pain. Amidst the slight discomfort, there was also a tingling sensation, giving her a strange sense of novelty she had never experienced before.

What's the point of whipping her through her clothes? Master Luo was weak and powerless, unable to cause her any harm, and the pain was very slight.

"Still not backing down?"

"Master Luo, you'd better not sleep too soundly tonight."

Mo Xue gently rubbed her tiger teeth, seemingly a bad cat with her fur standing on end and her beautiful back unconsciously straightened into a crescent shape, and her pert, apple-like buttocks gave the illusion of wagging her tail.

Luo Fanchen finally realized what was happening and stopped in time.

He realized that with his current true energy, a mere whipping was hardly a punishment.

To avoid the teachings backfiring and causing Mo Xue to develop some strange and unusual hobbies, he reluctantly stopped, even though he himself enjoyed it a little bit.
"If I see Moxue in bed tonight, I will not speak to you for the next five days."

"Huh? What's wrong? Master Luo, do you hate me now?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Xue's ears twitched slightly. She quickly climbed off Luo Ye's lap and grabbed Luo Fanchen's hand with both of her small hands in a pleading manner, shaking it gently. Clearly, she was truly afraid of such punishment.

I haven't spoken to Master Luo for five days, something I used to be able to do easily when I was sulking.

Just thinking about it now makes the fine hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.

"This is passive-aggressive behavior. Mo Xue doesn't want to practice swordsmanship alone for five days either, does she?"

Luo Fanchen smiled, finally finding a way to subdue Mo Xue.

He stood up with Mo Xue and was surprised to find that the girl's height had increased from just reaching his chest three months ago to now being able to touch his lips. Her height was probably close to 1.6 meters.

The girl's waist became increasingly supple, and her thin arms and forearms developed more tender, creamy flesh, making them soft and cuddly to hold.

Spiritual energy nourishes people; perhaps after the Ascension Ceremony, Mo Xue, having completed her second development, will be just as beautiful as Qiu Yun.

Of course, when Mo Xue hugged him, it was still uncomfortable.

"I was wrong, Master Luo, I was wrong."

Mo Xue immediately begged for mercy, taking her arm around Master Luo's arm and pleading, "Then from now on, once every seven days, okay?"

"Seven days? You still dare to have such a thought?"

Luo Fanchen raised an eyebrow slightly, and Mo Xue covered her lower lip with her upper lip, muttering in a wronged tone.

"But Qiuyun sneaks into Luo Ye's bed every seven days, and you tacitly allow it, don't you?"

There's a reason for this.

"Master Luo, you're showing favoritism, you big bad guy! If Master Luo doesn't agree, even if you take off your pants and beat me, I won't back down!"

Mo Xue's nose twitched slightly, her almond eyes were deep and unsettling. Luo Fanchen was speechless. Upon reflection, it really did seem like favoritism.

Seven days it is. Qiuyun is becoming more and more difficult to deal with. The two sisters can keep each other in check when they go in together.

"Sigh, whatever you say."

"Master Luo is the best!"

Mo Xue smiled and tiptoed away, taking advantage of Luo Fanchen's distraction, quickly pecking him on the cheek and giggling behind his ear before running away.

"It seems that all the efforts to teach this girl have been in vain."

His cheeks were slightly burning, and Luo Fanchen's fingertips caressed the moist lip marks. He could almost smell the lingering fragrance of gardenias from the girl.

He discovered that the girl's admiration level seemed to have increased slightly, and it seemed that reaching level four before the Ascension Ceremony was a certainty.

He was already too incapable of educating someone to this extent; he dared not even imagine raising them any further.
After lunch, Mo Xue obediently ran to the courtyard to practice her sword, while Qiu Yun had been staying at the Soul Banner lately, digesting the soul power absorbed during the night battle, and rarely had a moment of clarity.

Luo Fanchen considered buying some Soul Cleansing Crystals to help Qiu Yun with her expenses, but unfortunately he was short of money and could only ask Yun Mo to buy them on credit.

He hadn't even had time to collect the dozens of corpses of the cultivators before Li Miaoyun disposed of them. Even now, thinking back on it still pains him like a knife twisting in his heart.

After taking a few breaths, Li Miaoyun and Yunmo arrived at the appointment on time.

Today she wore a light purple, form-fitting palace dress, which perfectly showcased her voluptuous and slender figure. Her full, peach-shaped lips were adorned with a touch of rouge, and her elegant oval face was charming yet reserved.

Luo Fanchen's eyes lit up slightly, but he silently looked away because of the other party's Foundation Establishment status.

Even when refining Qi, one must be cautious. The mature and beautiful woman before him was someone who could crush him with a single finger.

"Mr. Luo, I apologize for bothering you. I've come to bring you some good news and a thank-you gift prepared by our Jubao Pavilion."

"Thanks?"

"We are naturally grateful to you for promptly detecting the traitor within our organization and protecting the safety of our senior stewards."

Li Miaoyun's smile was gentle, and her eyes were like spring water, seemingly capable of captivating the soul.

Guided by Luo Fanchen, she entered the main hall, glancing sideways at Yun Mo, who respectfully served two cups of fragrant tea before silently retreating.

Li Miaoyun took a small sip before getting to the point, her voice soft and sweet.

"We at Jubaoge have already taken care of your friends from that night. They will never reveal anything about the Soul Banner."

After saying that, Li Miaoyun changed the subject and added, "Of course, they are currently undergoing screening at Qinghe Sect, and their injuries have already healed."

"Phew, thank you very much, Pavilion Master."

"It was nothing. I heard that you lacked some offensive skills, so I took the liberty of preparing a sword manual and the remaining fire-attribute magic sword in the pavilion as a token of my gratitude."

Li Miaoyun spoke slowly, her storage ring flickering slightly, and a brocade box and jade slip suddenly appeared before her eyes.

Luo Fanchen glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and immediately refused, saying cautiously, "It's a bit too expensive."

The sword manual is a low-grade scroll called the Obscure Origin True Fire Sword. The sword itself is crimson red, with flowing flame cloud patterns carved on it using mysterious crystal. It is actually a first-grade high-grade magic weapon. The two together are roughly estimated to be even more precious than the Heavenly Heart Manual.

The lower-grade magic scrolls were quite profound, and he found them difficult to comprehend. As for swords, they were not as convenient as the soul banner.

He wasn't blinded by the large sum of money; if he owed this favor, it would be difficult to repay it later.

"This isn't just for you, sir; it's also a gift I gave to Mo Xue as we met." "Her cultivation is still shallow, so she doesn't need it for now."

Luo Fanchen shook his head slightly; he truly didn't want to owe Li Miaoyun too many favors.

He's at the Foundation Establishment stage; for him, asking for help with something trivial might be a piece of cake for a legitimate sect, but for a rogue cultivator like him, it would probably require him to exert all his strength and risk his life.

Inside the side room, Mo Xue quietly pushed open the door, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling as she gazed at the sword manual and the high-grade magic weapon, her mouth watering with envy.

Of course she needs it! She wished she could snatch it from Li Miaoyun, but unfortunately she couldn't cause trouble for Master Luo.

Li Miaoyun smiled and pursed her lips, not annoyed by the repeated polite rejections, and lowered her voice to say.

"I see that Mo Xue has a high-grade Golden Fire spiritual root and excellent comprehension in swordsmanship. Does Your Excellency intend to train Mo Xue to participate in the upcoming Ascension Conference?"

"The Pavilion Master has keen insight."

Luo Fanchen had no need to hide anything; with the Ascension Ceremony approaching, Mo Xue would inevitably show herself sooner or later.

"Although Mo Xue has excellent aptitude, she started cultivating late and is naturally at least four minor realms behind the geniuses of the major clans. Without external assistance, she will probably have difficulty competing for a spot in the tournament."

"The Longevity Technique is decent for building a foundation for lower-level cultivators, but it's still too crude for Mo Xue."

Li Miaoyun gently brushed the hair from her forehead with her delicate hand, revealing her fair and smooth neck. Luo Fanchen raised an eyebrow and quickly noticed the flaw.

"There's a need to compete for these spots? Can't we just register at the Immortal Pavilion?"

"That's how independent cultivators participate. If Mo Xue participates in this way, she will definitely be eliminated."

Li Miaoyun gently shook her head and began to explain.

"The Ascension Ceremony is a grand event for the world. Not only does the Daoist sect recruit new blood, but the Xuanmen sect also sends high-ranking officials to observe. If there are qualified disciples, they can be recruited from other realms."

"The battle is divided into three stages: man versus earth versus heaven."

Luo Fanchen pursed his lips and listened attentively, with an expression that said, "I see."

The so-called "human, earth, and sky" can be roughly summarized as: preliminary selection, shortlist, and main competition.

The preliminary selection process involves choosing from thousands of islands across three desolate regions. Countless independent cultivators participate, and the battles are intricate and frequent. Tens of thousands of cultivators compete, but ultimately only a few thousand are selected to advance to the next stage.

After all, the Ascension Assembly is a rare stage to showcase oneself. Even if one cannot join a Taoist sect, outstanding individuals will still be favored by affiliated sects and powerful clans, making it one of the rare ways for independent cultivators to rise to prominence.

Meanwhile, within the Daoist territory, vassal forces and immortal workshops that rank among the top contributors can receive recommendation slots.

This spot allows you to skip the preliminary selection and start competing from the shortlist stage. The advantage is dozens of times that of the preliminary selection spot. It directly saves you from several months of arduous and frequent battles, allowing you to conserve your energy and make it the first choice for Foundation Establishment and some Core Formation families.

"As for the Heavenly Battle, there are currently only two ways to directly advance to the Heavenly Battle level."

Li Miaoyun solemnly continued, "First, in each major region, those who hold the top ten Immortal Fate Rankings can directly advance to the Heavenly Battle Realm."

"The Qinghe Sect, Xianshui Residence, and the Immortal Workshop left behind after the complete annihilation of the Yimu Sect will announce the time for the opening of the Immortal Destiny List tomorrow."

"According to past practice, those who make outstanding contributions to the Taoist sect in the region, or those who defeat the strong with the weak, can be granted immortality by the Taoist sect."

Li Miaoyun pursed her lips, and seeing that Luo Fanchen seemed not to understand, she carefully described the situation.

"For example, at the Luoshen Pavilion, in the last Ascension Conference, there was a separate Qingyun Ranking established by the Taoist sect below the Immortal Fate Ranking."

"This list only includes the top two hundred Qi Refining geniuses under the age of twenty-two. In addition to receiving a one-time Immortal Fortune, those who make the list will also receive a fixed amount of Immortal Fortune every month."

"I see, I've learned a lesson."

Luo Fanchen murmured to himself. As a reclusive cultivator who had devoted himself to ascetic practice for twenty years, he really had no access to detailed information about the Ascension Conference.

In other words, for cultivators who are not from major clans, there is only one path: the open selection. The remaining spots are definitely not something that independent cultivators can covet.

"If Mo Xue wants to achieve immortality, there is only one path: ascending directly to the Heavenly Battle Realm. In the next two years, in addition to improving her cultivation, Mo Xue also needs to practice several superior sword techniques, and magical artifacts are also indispensable."

"Only in this way can we catch up with those who came later, get on the list of immortals sooner, and accumulate more immortal opportunities."

"Didn't you say there were two ways to directly reach the Heavenly Battle?"

Luo Fanchen stroked his chin, his expression gradually becoming serious. Mo Xue was very outstanding, with exceptional talent, but she started late, and her cultivation method was still weak compared to the inherited scrolls practiced by vassal disciples, even after switching to the Heavenly Heart Technique.

"The second method is that each current chief of the Taoist or Xuanmen sect can recommend one person to directly enter the Heavenly Dou realm."

"The position of Chief of the Luoshen Pavilion is currently vacant, and the strongest contender is Ming Ruoxue."

"It's alright, let's focus on getting on the Azure Cloud Ranking and accumulating immortal favor."

Luo Fanchen knew his place. The chief of the Daoist sect was an outstanding figure of the time, far beyond the reach of someone like him who was only at the Qi Refining stage.

"So, please accept it, sir."

Li Miaoyun, with her beautiful features, once again pushed the brocade box containing the sword, along with the jade slip, to the other party's side.

Luo Fanchen hesitated for a moment and did not refuse.

"Fairy Ruoxue will be residing in the Fifteenth Quarter for some time to personally preside over the Ascension Ceremony. You will be able to see her in person tomorrow."

"Ok?"

"Your Excellency faced danger without fear, single-handedly slaying dozens of cultivators who had undergone tribulations, and protecting the peace of Feiyunfang. Fairy Ruoxue praised you highly and will personally commend your achievements and bestow rewards upon you tomorrow."

Luo Fanchen narrowed his eyes, glancing at Li Miaoyun's pretty face with a meaningful look. He knew without a doubt that she had helped him claim the credit.

Otherwise, why would the Daoist prodigies pay attention to an ant like him?

"Thank you for the recommendation, Pavilion Master. May I ask how I can help you?"

Luo Fanchen knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and Li Miaoyun would not possibly pay such a high price simply to please him.

Li Miaoyun raised her eyebrows slightly, weighed the pros and cons, and decided to make some demands.

If you don't want anything, it might make Mr. Luo suspicious and create distance between you.

"I do have two requests to make, sir."

two?

Luo Fanchen's face remained calm, but he almost jumped up. Two unreasonable requests from a Foundation Establishment cultivator?

His smile was calm, and he tried his best to keep his voice steady: "Please speak freely, Your Excellency."

"First, I also took in a personal disciple in my early years. He is now fourteen years old. I would like to have him participate in the Ascension Conference two years from now. I may need your help to get a spot in the Earthly Battle for my Treasure Pavilion."

"This is a small favor for you, sir. We will discuss the details with you after Fairy Ruoxue makes the announcement tomorrow."

Luo Fanchen's face began to stiffen. He was already struggling to meet the first condition, let alone the other two.

"Secondly, I hit it off with Mo Xue at first sight and I like her very much. I want to take Mo Xue as my last disciple and teach her personally. In the future, when Mo Xue enters the Taoist sect, I can also benefit from it."

"Is the Pavilion Master serious?"

Luo Fanchen was slightly taken aback. How come this second condition was all about benefits?
For a Qi Refining cultivator, being personally instructed by a Foundation Establishment cultivator is an absolutely unparalleled opportunity. In the path of cultivation, those who have reached the highest level are given priority. Moreover, Li Miaoyun's vision far surpasses his, making her the perfect person to teach Mo Xue.

As for coveting Mo Xue's superior spiritual root, the possibility is probably not high.

"Naturally, Mo Xue is exceptionally talented, intelligent and reserved, and is an excellent candidate for cultivation. I have also taught a few unworthy disciples, and in terms of teaching by example, I may be more experienced than you, sir."

"Well... Mo Xue and I are already master and disciple."

Luo Fanchen weighed his options and still wanted to refuse. The difference in their cultivation levels was too great, and he didn't want to have too much interaction with Li Miaoyun for the time being.

If Ruomo Xue becomes his disciple, he will probably never be able to shake off this Foundation Establishment cultivator who is trying to climb the social ladder.

He's nothing special, just a rough, withered branch from a remote, impoverished place.

"What the master says doesn't count. Let Mo Xue choose for herself when it comes to becoming a disciple."

Li Miaoyun was naturally unwilling to give up. Luo Fanchen was her future, and she had to hold onto him no matter what.

She waved her hand, summoning Mo Xue, who was peeping through the crack in the side hall door. Her voice was gentle and melodious, her perfect affability melting away the girl's hostility without her even realizing it.

After hesitating for a moment, Mo Xue took small steps closer to the two of them after receiving a look of approval from Luo Fanchen.

"Master Luo is not my master."

Mo Xue pouted and emphasized that she and Master Luo were family, not just a superficial master-disciple relationship.

Li Miaoyun rubbed the cup with her fingertips, not letting Mo Xue make a choice immediately. She gently patted the girl's hair and stroked it tenderly until Mo Xue shook her head impatiently. Only then did she stop and take out two jade slips.

"Does Mo Xue still lack a suitable metal-based martial arts technique?"

"These are two techniques. One of them is called the Heavenly Heart Technique, which is a superior technique ordered by Mr. Luo. It is only a superior technique."

"Secondly, it is called the Golden Divine Wind Technique, which is a secret technique passed down in my clan. Although it is also a superior technique, it belongs to the Daoist scriptures and is one of the inheritances of the Samadhi Divine Wind Technique. The true essence refined from it is sharp and penetrating, corroding bones and destroying the soul."

"The Daoist Scripture?"

Luo Fanchen's face remained calm, but he nearly choked on a mouthful of spiritual tea, and Mo Xue's lips trembled slightly.

"Unfortunately, our clan's Samadhi Divine Wind Technique has been lost, and the Golden Samadhi Divine Wind Technique is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. However, after Mo Xue joins the Daoist sect, she can switch to cultivating other Daoist scriptures or even comprehend the profound mysteries."

Li Miaoyun slowly poured Luo Fanchen a cup of spiritual tea, her delicate hand playing with the hair by his ear, savoring the taste.

"Mo Xue, which one do you choose?"

Mo Xue's almond-shaped eyes trembled violently as her pupils were filled with the jade slip containing the Golden Divine Wind Technique.

The secret is that if one wishes to cultivate the second method, one must establish a spiritual contract and formally become Li Miaoyun's disciple.

For a rogue cultivator, becoming a disciple of a Foundation Establishment cultivator is an incredible honor, but she didn't want to cause trouble for Master Luo.

She lowered her head and timidly glanced at Master Luo out of the corner of her eye, seeing him deep in thought with his brows furrowed in worry.

Just as Mo Xue was about to refuse, she saw Master Luo slowly nod at her.

"I want to cultivate with Senior Miaoyun! I want to learn the Golden Wind Divine Technique."

"Alright, this matter is settled. I will formally hold an apprenticeship ceremony for Mo Xue at Jubao Pavilion. From now on, you will be my personal disciple, Li Miaoyun's disciple."

Li Miaoyun's snow-white face softened even more. Now that she had won over Mo Xue, how could she not establish a deep friendship with Mr. Luo?

"From now on, I'll have to trouble you, Pavilion Master. If she ever manages to join the Daoist sect, she will never forget your kindness in helping her."

Luo Fanchen cupped his hands and bowed slightly. Li Miaoyun's pretty face froze slightly, and she almost jumped up. After receiving the bow, she became somewhat reserved.

"I will do my utmost to help Jubaoge secure a spot in the Earthly Battle."

Luo Fanchen's expression was serious. After weighing the options for a long time, he decided to accept Li Miaoyun's kindness.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Li Miaoyun's summary of Mo Xue was very accurate. Mo Xue started late, and her skills were acceptable among rogue cultivators, but she was not outstanding among the geniuses of major clans, and could even be said to be at a disadvantage.

If she doesn't get a spot in the Heavenly Battle, Mo Xue's frequent battles will expose her weaknesses and advantages, and she will definitely miss out on ascending to immortality.

Only by ascending to the Heavenly Palace can one have the opportunity to enter the Taoist sect, and Li Miaoyun's financial assistance is indispensable.

He had very few resources at his disposal, and in terms of cultivation and combat experience, his help to Mo Xue was far less than that of Li Miaoyun.

The only option is to take out a loan on Mo Xue for now. If Mo Xue really does become a Taoist priest later, Li Miaoyun's investment won't be a complete loss.

At worst, he can simply stop revealing his true essence to Li Miaoyun in the future.
