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

Xu Wan was wearing a pink long dress, the hem of which swayed gently like a blooming pink flower, emitting a faint fragrance in the breeze.

A pure white ribbon was cleverly tied into an exquisite bow around her waist, adding a touch of agility and elegance to the overall look.

She stood quietly in front of the window, the night breeze gently blowing through her soft hair, as if telling endless thoughts.

She looked up at the vast night sky, dotted with stars, like countless sparkling gems, inlaid on the black sky.

His eyes were full of anticipation and anxiety, as if he was waiting for something important to happen.

She opened her red lips slightly and muttered to herself, "Master, why haven't you come yet? Have you been left in Shuangyue's bedroom?"

Her voice was soft and delicate, with a subtle hint of worry and expectation.

She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that her master would appear in front of her as soon as possible.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Although the sound was light, it was like the sound of nature, which instantly ignited the fire of hope in Xu Wan's heart.

She was so excited that she almost jumped up, a bright smile blooming on her face, as if she had seen the familiar figure of her master.

She hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to the door, not forgetting to adjust her dress to ensure that she appeared in front of her master in the most elegant manner.

However, when she opened the door with great anticipation, what came into view was not Master Yun Che, but a maid dressed in palace attire.

The maid was holding an exquisite tray, on which were neatly stacked a brand new set of purple disciple uniforms. The color was deep and mysterious, exuding an extraordinary aura.

The maid respectfully presented the tray. Xu Wan was slightly startled, then took the tray and said with a smile, "Please wait a moment."

Xu Wan returned to the house with the tray, gently picked up the brand new disciple uniform, and carefully placed it on the hanger.

Then she took the tattered and blood-stained old disciple uniform off the rack and placed it on the tray.

Looking at the old clothes that had been with her for a long time, an inexplicable sadness welled up in her heart.

She walked quickly to the door and told the maid, "Throw away this dress."

The maid respectfully took the tray, received the order, turned around and left, disappearing out the door.

Xu Wan slowly walked out of the door and stood quietly outside waiting.

She had long black hair, like an elf in the night.

She looked up at the vast night sky, her eyes filled with endless thoughts.

The breeze gently blew her long hair, and also stirred the waves deep in her heart.

She murmured to herself, "I've never felt lovesick before, but now I feel it and it hurts me.

Master, I want you to come, but I’m also afraid of you coming.”

Xu Wan sighed softly, her eyes revealing endless attachment and helplessness.

She said slowly: "How I wish I could be with you forever and share the joys and sorrows of life.

However, reality forces us to distance ourselves from each other.

There is a kind of love that is deep and great, called letting go, so that you can fly higher and farther. "

Yun Che held the key in his hand and turned it gently. The heavy door of the alchemy room slowly opened with a low creaking sound.

As he stepped over the threshold, a faint medicinal fragrance hit his nose, which made him feel refreshed.

Inside the pharmacy, rows of bright candles were neatly lit on the table, emitting a soft and warm light.

Frost Moon was sitting quietly on the ground, eyes closed, concentrating, practicing in front of rows of neatly arranged medicine cabinets.

Wearing a flawless white long dress, the candlelight reflected on her face, adding a touch of softness and mystery to her, like a fairy under the moon, quiet and elegant.

A faint fluorescent glow surrounded her.

It seems to blend with the scent of the elixir around it, appearing particularly mysterious and peaceful.

Yun Che walked slowly forward, his footsteps echoing in the empty alchemy room, but Shuang Yue seemed to be completely immersed in her own world of cultivation and did not sense Yun Che's arrival.

Her face was calm and her breathing was long, and she was obviously in a state of extreme concentration.

Yun Che walked to Shuangyue's side, stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes like torches, and his voice was filled with a hint of unquestionable majesty: "Shuangyue!"

This loud shout exploded in Shuangyue's ears like thunder. She suddenly opened her eyes, and a hint of surprise and panic flashed in her eyes.

Then, she quickly stood up, bowed respectfully, and said, "Shuang Yue respectfully welcomes the Emperor."

Yun Che was silent for a moment. His eyes were deep and cold, as if he could see through people's hearts. "How have you reflected on this? Do you know where you went wrong?"

His tone was full of unquestionable questioning, which made people feel awe.

Frost Moon trembled slightly when she heard this, she lowered her head, and her voice trembled a little: "Frost Moon knows her mistake.

My mistake was that I shouldn't have obstructed your decision, Your Majesty, and I shouldn't have committed an act of disobedience and exceeded my duty.

Please calm down, Your Majesty. Shuangyue already knows she was wrong.

From now on, no matter what the Emperor asks me to do, Shuangyue is willing to go through fire and water without hesitation."

Her tone was full of sincerity and regret, and she had obviously realized her mistake deeply.

"Keep your head up."

Yun Che's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty as he commanded.

Upon hearing this, Shuangyue's body trembled slightly, and then she slowly raised her head, with a hint of uneasiness and awe in her clear eyes.

Yun Che's gaze was as sharp as a torch, and he continued, "Look into my eyes."

Shuang Yue's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken. She mustered up her courage and looked directly into Yun Che's deep eyes.

Those eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, making her dare not hide anything.

A hint of satisfaction flashed through Yun Che's eyes. He slowly spoke, "I want your life now. Will you give it to me?"

Shuang Yue did not hesitate at all, she said firmly: "Shuang Yue's life originally belonged to you, Emperor.

Without you, Shuangyue would only have lived to the age of ten, but now I have lived for more than a thousand years.

All of this was bestowed by the Emperor, and Shuangyue is willing to give everything for the Emperor."

Yun Che nodded slightly upon hearing this, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes: “It’s good that you have self-awareness.

Frost Moon, you were raised by me, and everything you have now is thanks to me.

So, you must remember that your life, your status, and everything you have belongs to me.

I demand your absolute loyalty and unconditional obedience."

Shuang Yue bowed deeply, her voice filled with endless gratitude and awe: "Emperor, you are my reborn parents.

Frost Moon will absolutely obey all your orders. No matter when or where, Frost Moon will go through fire and water for you without hesitation."

However, deep in Shuangyue's heart, she knew clearly that no matter how hard she tried or how much she gave, she could not win Yun Che's true heart.

She only hoped to see him every day and follow him as his shadow.

Her love for him could only be hidden silently in her heart, turning into endless loyalty and waiting.

Shuang Yue asked Yun Che softly, "Emperor, you've been sitting quietly in the library all day, reading countless books. You must be tired.

Shimotsuki is willing to arrange a private room for you to rest for a while.

How about asking the kitchen to prepare some refreshments?"

Yun Che nodded slightly, his gesture revealing an indescribable dignity and unrestrainedness. He nodded gently, expressing his approval of Shuangyue's arrangement.

Seeing this, Shuangyue felt relieved and continued gently, "Do you need to prepare hot water for a bath?

If you were to bring this strong medicinal smell back to the palace, I'm afraid Miss Xu Wan would misunderstand you."

However, just as Shuang Yue finished speaking, Yun Che's eyes suddenly ignited with raging anger, and those red pupils seemed to be able to devour everything.

He stared fiercely at Shuangyue, his voice low and dangerous: "Otherwise, I will stay in your bedroom tonight,

How about letting you serve me personally?"

Upon hearing this, Shuangyue's face turned pale instantly. She backed away repeatedly until she leaned against the medicine cabinet, her body trembling slightly.

She lowered her head and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Shuangyue wouldn't dare. How dare Shuangyue have such a delusion?"

Upon seeing this, Yun Che waved his hand and the rows of burning candles instantly went out, plunging the alchemy room into darkness.

He flicked his sleeves, turned around and strode away.

Shuangyue followed closely behind him, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

The two walked out of the pharmacy one after the other.

Yun Che paused at the door for a moment.

He locked the door gently, turned around and said to Shuangyue, "Ask the kitchen to prepare a dozen peach blossom cakes and pack them up. I want to take them away."

Shuangyue quickly bowed and accepted the order, then carefully led Yun Che to the private room to rest and wait.

Her heart was filled with anxiety and uneasiness, but she didn't dare show it on her face.
