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

At midnight, everything was quiet. Xu Wan reluctantly got out of the steaming wooden tub to take a bath.

She was wearing an exquisite pink long dress with a gently swaying hem.

This long dress was what Yun Che had praised before. He said that she looked very attractive in pink.

So whenever she practiced at night, she would wear it on purpose.

She wore a red fleece cloak, but it couldn't completely protect her from the biting cold in the snow.

Xu Wan stood quietly in the snow, staring at a bathing pool not far away.

The bathing pool was covered with a thick layer of ice, which shone coldly in the moonlight.

This used to be the place where she bathed and practiced, but now it is frozen, just like her mood at the moment, full of nostalgia and helplessness.

The leaves around were covered with snow, like white elves resting on the branches.

Xu Wan looked up at the night sky. The stars had disappeared and the moon was looming, as if even the heaven and earth were adding a sense of mystery and difficulty to her path of cultivation.

She closed her eyes and concentrated, quickly forming seals with her hands, and began to absorb the icy air.

This was her compulsory course every day after returning from the Taoist sect. She had never forgotten Yun Che's words asking her to cultivate an extremely Yin body.

Because of this, Master Jiuyang gave her ginseng to eat and ginseng soup to drink during the day, but he still couldn't completely regulate her special physique.

Xu Wan gritted her teeth, endured the severe pain brought by the cold, and continued to absorb the icy air.

The nightly training made her more afraid of the cold, but her eyes were extremely firm.

Because she knew that only by cultivating an extremely yin body could she practice the Yin-Yang Secret with her master and share joy.

As Xu Wan continued to inhale gusts of biting cold air into her body, her originally rosy face gradually turned pale, and she even began to have a runny nose due to the cold.

The sudden cold made her open her eyes suddenly and stop practicing immediately.

He muttered to himself, “If I continue to practice, I will be frozen.

Master, I'm sorry, I need to warm up first."

Xu Wan knew very well that continuing to practice in such an environment would not only be useless, but might even harm his foundation.

So, she quickly mobilized the spiritual power in her body and performed the cleaning technique to remove the snowflakes on her cloak one by one, her movements swift and graceful.

Then, she took a step forward and walked quickly into the bedroom, closing the carved wooden door tightly to block out the cold wind from outside.

Entering the inner hall, Xu Wan quickly put the cloak on the hanger with quick and elegant movements.

Then she walked over to the bed and sat down, taking off her boots and placing them neatly beside her.

Then she climbed to the center of the bed and quickly unfolded the quilt that was folded into tofu blocks.

The moment she got into bed, Xu Wan felt like she had entered a warm world.

She curled up so tightly that even her head was not visible.

After a while, Xu Wan finally showed up, her hair a little messy.

With a blush on her face, she panted and murmured to herself, "Master, I make the quilt every morning when I wake up. I will stick to your habit.

Master, when will you come to see me? I really miss you.

As she spoke, she stretched out her arm, took the jade pillow beside her into the quilt, and hugged it tightly.

This jade pillow was once used by Yun Che. Whenever she held it, it felt as if Yun Che was by her side every night.

Xu Wan hugged the jade pillow tightly, feeling the coolness seeping through her thin dress and quietly penetrating into the cracks between her bones.

This jade pillow is definitely not an ordinary item. It not only contains a faint spiritual energy, but also has the magical effect of helping people sleep well.

With the company of this jade pillow, she gradually fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Wan turned over and felt her hand touching someone's face.

She suddenly opened her eyes and lifted the quilt to see Yun Che lying flat on the edge of the bed in his half-open white nightgown, with a gentle and smiling look in his eyes.

"Wan'er, are you awake?"

Yun Che turned sideways and put his arm around Xu Wan’s shoulders.

Xu Wan felt the warm breath from Yun Che, and a blush appeared on her face. She rubbed her head against his chest.

After a round of intimate manipulation, she raised her head and said coquettishly: "Master, you are finally here."

Yun Che smiled faintly and said, "Get up and practice when you wake up."

As he spoke, he was already dressed and standing beside the bed, holding out his hand, waiting for Xu Wan.

Upon seeing this, Xu Wan immediately put on her boots and interlocked her fingers with Yun Che, her eyes gleaming with anticipation and shyness.

"Master, you're not going to ask me to practice outside, are you? It's getting late and very cold outside."

Yun Che raised an eyebrow and smiled playfully, "Wan'er doesn't want to practice with me anymore? It's just that it's cold late at night, so practicing is more effective."

Hearing this, Xu Wan lowered her head, her cheeks flushed red as she murmured to herself, "Master, you... you don't want to... follow me in the snow..."

Before she could finish her words, she was already too shy to control herself.

Yun Che chuckled.

He took Xu Wan's hand and led her out of the inner hall.

As soon as the door was opened, a chill hit her face. Xu Wan immediately hugged Yun Che's arm and pleaded, "Master, I'm cold. I don't want to practice."

Yun Che leaned over and touched Xu Wan's head.

"Wan'er, don't be afraid."

Xu Wan still clung to Yun Che's arm tightly, her heart feeling as if it were entangled by thousands of threads, extremely tangled.

Finally, as if she had made a momentous decision, she let go of Yun Che's hand, raised her head, and stared directly at him with eyes filled with determination: "Master, I'm ready."

Yun Che nodded slightly and turned his gaze towards the ice-covered pool of water in front of him.

He waved his hand, and a ball of blazing red flame leaped out from his palm and fell into the cold pool like a meteor.

In an instant, the ice surface exploded, water splashed everywhere, and the cold and heat waves intertwined to form a strange picture.

He turned around, his eyes cold, and said sternly, "Wan'er, go soak in there."

Xu Wan's eyes widened as she stared at Yun Che in disbelief, her voice trembling, "Master, what did you say?"

Yun Che's eyes were still icy, but his tone was clearer: "I told you to soak in there, and then I'll teach you how to practice the Yin-Yang Art."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wan's inner conflict was instantly replaced by joy. She secretly rejoiced, "Master, you are finally going to practice the Yin-Yang Art with me."

Without any hesitation, she immediately jumped into the cold water, as if it was a step to happiness.

Yun Che stood quietly in the snow, his eyes never leaving Xu Wan.

After a long time, Xu Wan finally climbed out of the icy pool water and reached the shore with difficulty.

Yun Che stretched out his hand to pull her up, and she fell into his arms, tears welling up in her eyes. She didn't forget to wipe her snot on the white robe on his chest.

However, Yun Che did not get angry. Instead, he gently put his arms around her shoulders and placed a passionate kiss on her forehead.

He looked at Xu Wan lovingly and said gently, "Wan'er, you've worked hard."

Then, he picked up Xu Wan and carried her horizontally, walking in the snow. The scene was warm and beautiful.

Yun Che placed Xu Wan on the snow, and she lay flat on her back.

The accumulated snow seeped through her thin dress and into her skin, but at this moment she was no longer aware of the cold. The passion in her heart was like a blazing flame, warming every inch of her heart.

She gazed at Yun Che affectionately, her bright eyes filled with anticipation and shyness.

Yun Che's voice was gentle and low, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake. He whispered softly, "Wan'er, are you ready?"

Xu Wan turned her head away shyly, a blush appearing on her cheeks.

Seeing this, Yun Che chuckled softly, covered her with his body, gently straightened her head, and then kissed her lips affectionately.

At that moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped, with only the sound of their two heartbeats echoing.

After a passionate lovemaking, Xu Wan stood up while clutching her dress. Suddenly, she noticed a trace of blood on the snow and became frightened.

"Master, if our foster father finds this bloodstain, it will be the end of us."

Yun Che simply smiled faintly and waved his hand gently, and the bloodstains on the snow disappeared without a trace.

He gently picked up Xu Wan and carried her horizontally and walked into the inner hall.

Xu Wan was lying flat on the bed. She turned her head and looked at Yun Che, who was lying on the edge of the bed, with a hint of shyness on her face.

"Master... you were too overbearing just now. My limbs are still weak... and I'm still in pain..."

Yun Che turned sideways, gently touched her head, and said with a smile: "So do you like the domineering me, or the gentle me?

It's normal to feel pain, it will stop hurting after a few times..."

Xu Wan buried her head in his chest, trembling and silent.

A wave of pain hit Xu Wan, and she opened her eyes, only to find herself lying under the bed.

She scratched her hair and said to herself, "That was just a dream, it was so real.

This is the first time I’ve had this kind of dream…”

Thinking of this dream, a hint of shyness and sweetness appeared on her face again.

Because she knew that this day would come.

She murmured to herself, "Master, he said that I am his only empress."
