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

Below, Jin Xi stood up from her seat, walked with steady and graceful steps onto the stage covered with bright red carpet.

He was dressed in a gorgeous golden robe, and every fold of the robe seemed to speak of endless splendor and glory.

The waist of his robe was tightly fixed with an extremely delicate belt, outlining his tall and straight figure.

His golden hair shone brightly under the light, and was cleverly tied into a high ponytail with a snow-white hairband, making him look even more heroic.

When Jin Xi stood there, his extraordinary temperament made him look up to like a favored child of heaven.

This robe had an extraordinary origin. It was the clothing Yun Che wore when he served as the leader of the Wuji Sect more than a thousand years ago.

A few months ago, Yun Che generously gave all the robes he had worn to Jin Xi.

Seeing this, the monks applauded and cheered, and there was a lot of discussion.

"Is he the legendary Qilin, Jin Xi?"

"Yes, I was sent to Lingshan Academy by the Emperor himself a year ago for further study."

"This temperament is really amazing, he looks so young, I wonder how old he is."

“I wonder what he’s going to perform for us. It’s really exciting.”

A female monk said with anticipation glittering in her eyes.

Jin Xi bowed and saluted, cupping his hands and saying in a clear and pleasant voice, "Emperor, I will perform a dance for you. I hope you will enjoy it."

As soon as these words came out, a monk below couldn't help but exclaimed: "Dancing? He can dance?"

"He's really versatile and gifted!"

On the high platform, Yun Che nodded slightly, his gaze gently cast towards Jin Xi in the center of the stage, and he said softly, "Okay!"

Before he finished speaking, Jin Xi's figure flashed and instantly transformed into a majestic golden unicorn.

It danced happily on the wide stage, sometimes leaping lightly, sometimes bouncing happily, and suddenly leaping high into the sky, with an extremely agile posture.

This strange dance caused the monks to laugh and applaud continuously.

"Is this the dance he was talking about?"

A female monk covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and surprise, "Interesting, really interesting!"

On the high platform, Chen Xuan held his long beard with his hands, his eyes deep, and nodded slightly, and let out hearty laughs that echoed throughout the hall.

Yun Che, who was standing beside him, had a calm and focused expression, his eyes fixed on the golden rays galloping through the sky.

The golden figure was as dazzling as the sun, and every jump radiated endless light and vitality.

Frost Moon, who was standing beside Yun Che, had a look of concern between her eyebrows as she asked softly, "Emperor, if he doesn't like watching, I can ask him to stop right now, okay?"

Yun Che shook his head lightly, a smile curling up at the corner of his mouth, and replied, "No need, as long as Xi'er dances happily."

After a stick of incense.

Jin Xi's performance finally came to an end.

I saw a golden unicorn lying on the stage, making a happy and satisfied cry, and then with a flash of light, it turned into a human form and stood up gracefully.

He looked towards the stage, bowed, and asked in a clear voice, "The performance is over. Did the Emperor enjoy it?"

Yun Che clapped his hands, his eyes filled with admiration, and said, "This dance is unique. Appreciate it!"

Before he finished speaking, Yun Che waved his hand. A golden light flashed, and a heavy iron box landed on the stage with a loud bang, causing the stage to tremble slightly.

The attention of all the monks was instantly attracted, and they all stood up, eager to take a look at the treasures in the box.

The iron box opened automatically, emitting a bright purple light that was dazzling.

"That... is the Purple Gold Spirit Stone!"

Someone exclaimed, his voice full of shock.

"Is it really a hundred thousand mid-grade purple gold spirit stones?"

Someone guessed doubtfully.

"It seems that the Emperor likes to watch dancing."

A female monk said softly, with a hint of amusement in her tone.

"Maybe not."

Someone objected, but the voice was quickly drowned out by the discussion of the crowd.

On the high platform, Chen Xuan's face darkened and he shouted, "Everyone, please be quiet!"

His voice exploded like thunder. The monks below shut up and sat down one after another. The hall instantly returned to peace.

Jin Xi widened his eyes and stared at the iron box in front of him. The spirit stones inside were shining with tempting light.

He had never seen so many spirit stones, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart.

His knees involuntarily dropped to the ground, and he kowtowed devoutly. He raised his head and looked at Yun Che on the high platform, his eyes filled with excitement and gratitude.

"Thank you, Emperor, for your gift!"

His voice trembled slightly with excitement.

On the high platform, Yun Che gently waved his hand, a calm and composed smile on his face.

"No need for such a generous gift. Just accept it. It's only 100,000 mid-grade purple gold spirit stones."

His tone was relaxed, as if these 100,000 medium-grade purple-gold spirit stones were just a tiny, insignificant amount.

Upon hearing this, the monks began to discuss again, their faces filled with shock and envy.

"One hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and purple gold ones? The Emperor actually thinks this is a piece of cake?"

"Yes, it's only one hundred thousand. It's naturally a small matter for the Emperor."

"The Emperor is rich, handsome, and strong. I wish I could be his disciple."

A monk said with longing on his face.

Another female monk said with a sweet smile, "I'm afraid I can't do it, but it would be nice if I could be his maid."

In another corner of the crowd, Xu Wan's eyes were fixed on Jin Xi in the center of the stage.

I saw her clenching her fists, her eyes filled with both envy and bitterness.

Jin Xi stretched out his palm, and the iron box seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, gradually shrinking and finally melting into his palm.

He bowed and turned to leave, his back looking both elegant and proud.

Xu Wan smiled bitterly to herself, thinking to herself, "Boss Mo, you are indeed very clever.

There is no business without fraud, and he has caught a bunch of fans.

Xu Wan sat upright in front of the white jade table, her right hand tightly grasping the golden spirit stone that shone with golden light.

She held a whisk in her left hand, and both hands were placed on her knees, but at this moment, her hands were shaking slightly.

At this moment, Xuanqing actually held her hand.

Xu Wan was slightly stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she did not struggle.

She knew very well that in this situation, any extreme action might cause unnecessary commotion and lead to gossip.

So she chose to remain silent and let Xuanqing hold her wrist.

Xuan Qing was secretly delighted to see that she did not resist. He said softly, "Jinglian, don't be sad."

Xu Wan turned her head and asked doubtfully, "Why are you so nice to me?"

Xuan Qing replied affectionately: "Because of you, I was able to come to this sacred mountain, so I admire you."

After hearing this, Xu Wan lowered her head silently.

On the high platform, Yun Che took in all of this, and a feeling of displeasure rose in his heart.

He picked up the teacup and took a few sips of tea, trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

Then he coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said loudly, "Is anyone else coming to perform? If not, serve the food, and we'll leave after we finish eating."

Xuanqing held Xu Wan's slender wrist, which was as cold and delicate as an ice sculpture or jade, making people feel pity for her.

He gently closed his eyes, feeling this rare ambiguous atmosphere, thinking to himself: Jinglian, since he doesn't know how to cherish you, then I want you.

I, Xuanqing, am willing to always stay by your side.
