Compared to her usual cold and aloof gaze, Yun Yun looked at Xiao Miao, who had become alluring after being toyed with by her, and couldn't help but hold her tightly, as if afraid that he would disappear from her sight at any moment.
"Xiao Miao, your Uncle Guhe will be coming to Yunlan Sect in the next few days. I'm letting you go out and show your face, but don't get any funny ideas, or I'll punish you."
Upon hearing Yun Yun's words, Xiao Miao's gaze, which had been almost calm in recent days, seemed to show a hint of disappointment.
"really?"
Xiao Miao's voice was slightly hoarse from the recent battle.
"Of course, the premise is that you don't have any wicked thoughts, otherwise if I find out, I can't guarantee what will happen. Maybe you'll stay here with your teacher for the rest of your life."
Yun Yun seemed to see through Xiao Miao's heart. Her tone was gentle and calm, yet it revealed confidence. After all, no matter how amazing Xiao Miao's talent was, he was only at the peak of the Dou Ling realm, and his Dou Qi had been sealed by her.
Even if she is not good at sealing techniques, it is definitely not something that a peak Dou Ling level can break through; it would require a Dou Wang level at the very least.
Xiao Miao's body trembled slightly, as if it were really as Yun Yun had said. However, he knew that if he missed this opportunity, it would be difficult to get out again. He would not believe his master's lies.
"Master, how...how could this be?"
Xiao Miao trembled slightly, and her hoarse voice made a faint sound.
Yun Yun looked at the beautiful woman before her, and although they had just finished fighting, she couldn't help but feel...
"Good disciple, let your master take a good look at you."
"Master, um... um... don't move over there."
Seeing that he was about to unleash his beastly nature again, Xiao Miao wanted to refuse immediately, but it was no use.
The morning sun shines brightly over the vast expanse, surrounded by mountains, and the air is thick with fighting spirit, truly befitting its status as the premier sect of the Gamma Empire.
The crowd gathered in the main hall of the clan, which was originally a ceremony to welcome Dan Wang Guhe back to Yunlan Sect.
But at this moment, everyone's eyes were frequently drawn to a man in white. His black hair cascaded down his back, and his expression was calm, but his unparalleled beauty shocked everyone.
At this moment, Xiao Miao, who had removed his mask, seemed to be taking over the role of the host. Even Yun Yun, who was in the main seat, stared at him with half-closed eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
"Xiao Miao never takes off his mask, especially in public. Why is he acting so strangely today? I hope he's not suddenly thinking of something bad, otherwise..."
Yun Yun's expression remained calm as she held an elegant teacup, which emitted a fragrant aroma, but her mind was wandering.
Even Dan Wang Guhe, who was standing to the side, kept glancing at her. When he first saw Yun Yun, he was immediately amazed by her beauty. He never expected that Xiao Miao's face under the mask was even more stunning than Yun Yun's.
"I heard today that Uncle Guhe is returning to Yunlan Sect. When I first became a disciple of my master, I was very grateful to Uncle Guhe for providing me with pills. Now that I have the opportunity to meet you, I think it would be better to show my true face."
Xiao Miao's stunningly beautiful face held a slight smile, and her hair swayed gently by her side, making her appear even more breathtakingly beautiful and alluring.
In Yun Yun's view, this action was nothing more than an invitation for her to do something.
If it weren't for the fact that they were in public, Yun Yun would definitely have pulled him aside and showered him with affection.
Even so, Yun Yun couldn't help but swallow hard. But when she saw the look of amazement in the eyes of some of the female deacons in the hall as they looked at Xiao Miao, a cold glint flashed in Yun Yun's originally fiery eyes. Xiao Miao could only be hers, and no one could take her away.
Yun Yun planned to hold a wedding after her master emerged from seclusion, thus giving him a legitimate status. As for the master-disciple relationship, she would simply dissolve it.
However, Xiao Miao's actions today were not as casual as he claimed; he revealed his true face to plead for help.
As for who to ask for help.
It was Dan Wang Guhe who was standing next to Yun Yun.
Xiao Miao was well aware that his master was not skilled in sealing techniques, but even so, not just anyone could break the seal. Today, the only one present with this ability was Pill King Gu He. Moreover, the others were all in the Yunlan Sect, and Xiao Miao did not believe that they would offend the sect leader for his sake.
As for why Danwang Guhe would help him,
Xiao Miao knew about Dan Wang Gu He's feelings for his master. Although Gu He would frequently look at him when he first revealed his true appearance, his gaze would mostly fall on Yun Yun in the main seat afterward, with an unreadable look in his eyes, which was clearly an undisguised liking.
As men, Xiao Miao believed that if he told the truth, he didn't believe that Dan Wang Gu He wouldn't break Yun Yun's imprisonment. Xiao Miao was betting that Gu He wouldn't give up the person he loved.
Next, all you need to do is tell his senior uncle the truth without Yun Yun finding out.
Xiao Miao removed her mask to reveal her true face for this very reason.
Xiao's bloodline inheritance includes a secret technique called Soul Transmission, which is similar to the telepathic communication in martial arts novels from his previous life, but is more secretive. With his current cultivation level, facing a Dou Wang or higher level like Dan Wang Gu He, he would need to be unable to resist and would also need to concentrate. Otherwise, Xiao Miao would not have taken off his mask today, and that was the purpose.
It was powered by Xiao Miao's soul power, but with his current soul power, he could only power it for a short while, but that was enough.
However, Xiao Miao was afraid that Yun Yun would notice the fluctuations, so he could only look for a specific opportunity to make contact.
"Uncle-Master, Nephew-Master, I am planning to break through to the Dou Wang realm. Could you please make some Dou Ling Pills for me? I can provide the medicinal herbs myself."
"The Battle King Realm?"
Gu He was somewhat shocked when he heard Xiao Miao's question, but he did not doubt the truth of his words. After all, he was already a mid-stage Dou Shi three years ago, and it was not impossible for him to reach the peak of Dou Ling in three years. Moreover, Yun Yun did not refute him, so it must be true.
“Nephew, there’s no need to be so polite. Since you are Yun Yun’s disciple, we are family. There’s no need for medicinal herbs. I have some pills that I refined earlier. You can take them for now.”
Xiao Miao saw Gu He take out a small jade bottle from his storage ring and hand it to him.
A surge of excitement welled up inside me, but I managed a slight smile on the surface. This was my last chance, and I had to seize it.
"Thank you, uncle."
"Oh, I already told you not to be so polite."
Xiao Miao slowly approached Gu He, just as Gu He reached out his hand.
Just then, as their hands touched, Guhe trembled slightly, his expression changing subtly, looking somewhat surprised.

Chapter 14 Successfully Leaving the Sect
"Uncle Guhe, save me! I'm trapped in a secret room in the back of Master's house."
Upon hearing the voice in his mind, Dan Wang Guhe was taken aback and wondered if he had misheard.
But just then, another voice came:
"Master will be going to the Monster Mountain Range to hunt today. This is the only chance, Uncle-Master."
This time, Dan Wang Guhe truly understood. The voice in his mind was indeed coming from the incredibly beautiful young man in front of him, even though he didn't speak.
At this moment, Dan Wang Guhe's expression was also clearly seen by Yun Yun in the main seat. She felt a slight fluctuation the instant Xiao Miao and Guhe made contact.
She initially suspected that Xiao Miao had done something, but then she remembered that her fighting spirit had been completely sealed by her, and looked at Gu He instead.
"Elder Gu, what happened? Why do you look like that? I seemed to sense a strange fluctuation just now?"
Upon hearing Yun Yun's words, Xiao Miao below felt a surge of panic, but on the surface he maintained a calm demeanor, even revealing a hint of doubt.
Xiao Miao had originally guessed that Yun Yun wouldn't be able to sense him if he and Gu He were a little close, but he didn't expect her to be so perceptive as to detect a trace of soul fluctuation.
They immediately tried to find a way to salvage the situation, and before Guhe could answer, they preemptively spoke up.
"Master, what are you talking about? What strange fluctuations? Uncle Gu simply handed me the pills, didn't he?"
As he spoke, Xiao Miao showed a hint of doubt on his face, and then turned to Gu He.
"Uncle-Master Gu, have you sensed any strange fluctuations?"
Gu He had just recovered from the voice in his mind when he saw Xiao Miao's beautiful eyes staring at him, with an inexplicable expression churning within them.
Gu He gave him a deep look, then turned to look at Yun Yun.
"I didn't feel any strange fluctuations."
"Why did Elder Gu have that expression just now?"
In the past, Yun Yun wouldn't have paid such attention to unrelated matters, but since it concerned Xiao Miao, she couldn't tolerate the slightest carelessness, fearing that he would seize any opportunity to flee far away from her.
The thought of that outcome made her heart pound; she would never allow it to escape right under her nose.
"It's alright. My junior nephew just said that he was trying to break through to the Dou Wang realm. Although I had no doubts, I was really curious and wanted to explore his realm. I didn't expect to find nothing. It seems that my junior nephew has a special way of hiding his aura, which even I, a Dou Wang, cannot detect."
Gu He glanced at Xiao Miao as he spoke, then replied to Yun Yun.
"In that case, I was making a fuss over nothing. Let's leave it at that."
When Yun Yun heard Gu He say that, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, clearly indicating that she did not want to continue the argument.
After all, Xiao Miao's Dou Qi is currently sealed, so no matter how she investigates, she won't be able to detect his Dou Qi level. She might even discover that she has set up a sealing technique in Xiao Miao's body, which would be troublesome to explain and could even cause Xiao Miao to leave. This is a consequence that Yun Yun absolutely cannot accept.
In her nervousness, Yun Yun forgot that Xiao Miao had mentioned a fortuitous encounter when he joined the sect, which gave him a high-level concealment technique. During the apprenticeship ceremony, no one had been able to see through his cultivation level.
Xiao Miao was initially worried that Gu He wouldn't believe him and might reveal what had just happened. It was a close call, a huge gamble for Xiao Miao. Fortunately, Gu He didn't say anything.
Gu He was already suspicious because of the voice in his mind earlier. After all, why would Yun Yun, as his master, imprison such a prodigy disciple? He couldn't understand what her purpose was.
As for the investigation I just mentioned, it was just a pretext.
However, it still planted a seed in his heart, so much so that when he saw the hint of panic in Yun Yun's eyes, his suspicions quickly sprouted and took root.
He didn't understand why Yun Yun would show a panicked expression when it was just an excuse to probe her fighting spirit.
Unless there's something shameful inside Xiao Miao's body, or the voice in his mind just now was...
Seeing Xiao Miao sit back down in his original seat, Gu He also returned to his own seat, his mind deep in thought.
Should we believe the voice in our heads?
Is this true?
To be honest, he didn't quite believe it, but what had just happened clearly told him that there were some secrets between Xiao Miao and Yun Yun that they hadn't told him.
"Alright, Xiao Miao, now that you have the pills, go and cultivate, and try to break through to the Dou Wang realm as soon as possible. I'll stay with Elder Gu."
