The cat demon defies the heavens and is the emperor’s only beloved disciple!

Inside the secret room, Xu Wan held Yun Che's arm tightly. The two leaned against each other, carefully stepping on the ancient stone slabs beneath their feet, continuing to explore the unknown territory.

In Yun Che's palm, he held a night-shining pearl that emitted a soft glow. That light was like a morning star in the darkness, illuminating the way forward for them.

The deeper they went, the heavier the air seemed to grow.

Suddenly, a heavy stone door appeared in front of them, like an insurmountable chasm, blocking their progress.

The stone gate is carved with intricate totems, and the traces of time make these patterns appear more ancient and mysterious.

Yun Che gently took the Night Pearl into his arms. The light instantly dimmed, and the surroundings fell into darkness again.

He turned to look at Xu Wan beside him, with a determined light in his eyes.

He whispered to Xu Wan, "Wan'er, please stand back. I want to break this stone door."

Xu Wan was a little worried when she heard this, but she knew Yun Che's strength and determination very well.

So, she nodded gently, took a few steps back, and locked her eyes on Yun Che, afraid to miss any moment.

Yun Che took a deep breath and gathered all the strength in his body.

He slowly raised his hands, palms facing the stone door.

I saw his fingers trembling slightly, as if an invisible force was gathering at his fingertips.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly and pushed out his palms. A bright light burst out from his palms and hit the stone gate directly.

With a deafening roar, the stone gate collapsed under the impact of the light, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Yun Che was quick-witted and swift-handed. Without hesitation, he quickly picked up Xu Wan and held her tightly in his arms.

He covered her eyes gently but firmly with one hand, as if he was guarding a precious treasure, afraid that the flying dust would have the slightest chance of invading her bright and clear eyes and causing a hint of discomfort.

Then, Yun Che moved, leaping up like a light swallow, and brought Xu Wan through layers of space to another completely different world.

After he landed steadily on the ground, he carefully put Xu Wan down.

Xu Wan felt the solid ground beneath her feet and slowly opened her eyes.

When she saw the endless sea of ​​flowers before her, she couldn't help but exclaim, "What a beautiful garden!"

Her voice was full of surprise and admiration. The scene before her seemed like a dreamland she had never seen before. Every flower bloomed so beautifully and exuded an enchanting fragrance.

However, Yun Che did not immerse himself in the beautiful scenery. He looked around vigilantly and quickly covered Xu Wan's mouth and nose.

His movements were filled with undeniable seriousness as he spoke in a low and powerful voice, "Be careful, it's poisonous."

These four words are short but powerful, reminding Xu Wan that although this sea of ​​flowers is beautiful, it may also hide unknown dangers.

Yun Che's eyes were filled with concern and protection for Xu Wan. He would never allow any harm to come near her.

Yun Che sensed the gorgeous sea of ​​flowers, and only after confirming that there was no hidden danger did he carefully remove his hand from Xu Wan's mouth and nose.

Xu Wan's face blossomed into a brilliant smile. She gently touched the back of Yun Che's hand.

With curiosity and admiration shining in his eyes, he said softly, "Master, do you know medical skills?

I remember you mentioned Shuangyue of Wuji Sect. She is proficient in swordsmanship, alchemy, magic array, music, and medicine.

And you were once the leader of the Wuji Sect. Did you teach her all the skills she knows?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Che couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand and smiled bitterly, thinking to himself, "Why are you mentioning Shuangyue again?"

He was silent for a moment, as if gathering his thoughts, before he spoke slowly, his voice carrying a barely perceptible gentleness: "If I told you that I taught her everything she knows and that she's a very talented woman, would you be angry about it?"

Hearing this, Xu Wan's lips curled up into a mischievous smile. She gently stepped on Yun Che's foot and said in a feigned anger, "Tell me, how did you teach her?

Are you going to be like my adoptive father, giving me a secret manual and letting me practice on my own, or are you going to teach her step by step, be very close to her, and even hold her while you dance with the sword?"

Yun Che felt a warm current surge in his heart when he saw this. He took a deep breath, put his arms around Xu Wan's waist, and held her tightly in his arms.

His eyes were sincere and affectionate, as if he wanted to concentrate all his emotions in this moment: “I never hugged her, or even smiled at her.

Because before I met you, I didn't know what love was.

There is only the great way in my heart, and the only goal is to become stronger.

But since I met you, my world has become so different."

Xu Wan gently raised her head, her bright eyes filled with playfulness and curiosity as she looked at Yun Che who was hugging her tightly.

Her voice was soft and slightly teasing, like the spring breeze blowing through the treetops, bringing a hint of imperceptible warmth.

"Master, how come you speak love words so skillfully and naturally?"

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, forming a playful smile, as if she was waiting for Yun Che's answer.

Upon hearing this, a hint of tenderness and helplessness flashed across Yun Che’s deep eyes. He smiled softly, as if amused by Xu Wan’s playful question.

He lowered his head, resting his forehead lightly against Xu Wan's, and said in a low and magnetic voice, "You little wild cat, you've finally learned how to tease me.

"Master, these words of love were not learned secretly, but simply flowed out naturally from my heart."

Xu Wan couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart when she heard the words. She felt the sincerity and affection in Yun Che's words, and two red clouds gradually appeared on her cheeks.

She gently nestled in Yun Che's arms, as if she had found the most solid support.

He murmured softly, "Master, your words of love are more beautiful than any poem or song in the world."

Yun Che chuckled softly and ruffled Xu Wan’s hair lovingly, his eyes filled with tenderness and doting: “That’s because my feelings for you are more sincere than anything else in the world.

Sweet words are just the tip of the iceberg of my feelings."

Xu Wan gently raised her delicate face, a cunning glint in her eyes, and said to Yun Che, "Master, you are holding me so tightly. Could it be that you want to go on a romantic journey of love and pleasure with me in this gorgeous sea of ​​flowers?"

Her voice was like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, carrying a hint of teasing and expectation.

Yun Che sighed helplessly upon hearing this, and looked at Xu Wan with deep and gentle eyes, saying, "I would love to spend some time with you in this sea of ​​flowers, but unfortunately, you have the body of a cat demon and have not yet cultivated to become an immortal, while I am the high and mighty Emperor.

If we combine yin and yang, I'm afraid it will damage your foundation, which is something I don't want to see."

His tone was full of helplessness and doting, as if he was explaining something to a naughty child.

After saying this, Yun Che slowly released Xu Wan from his embrace, but did not let go of her hand.

He gently took her hand, as if holding a rare treasure, and then gently kissed the back of her hand. The kiss was like the first light of dawn, warm and unobtrusive.

"Let's keep going,"

Yun Che smiled and said, "Let's see if there are any treasures or miracles hidden in this sea of ​​flowers. Perhaps we can find our own surprise during this beautiful time."

His voice was full of magnetism, as if it could lead Xu Wan to an unknown distance.

Xu Wan looked at Yun Che's determined eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

She nodded gently, letting Yun Che hold her hand as they stepped into the gorgeous sea of ​​flowers.

The colorful flowers gently surround them like a painting.

Xu Wan gently closed her eyes, deeply inhaling the floral fragrance that filled the air, a happy smile on her face. She let Yun Che hold her hand and walk leisurely in this sea of ​​flowers.
