The Seven Princesses' Journey Across Time

Upon hearing this, Baili Dongjun's face turned red and he began to stutter: "Nothing... nothing." After all, Brother Yun was a man. If the special feelings in his heart were discovered by his master, he would definitely give him a lecture.

However, Nangong Chunshui was no ordinary person. He only needed to take one look at Baili Dongjun's panicked expression to understand his thoughts. So, he slowly approached Baili Dongjun and said in a low voice, "Dongjun, whether it's a man or a woman, as long as that person is someone you truly love, you don't have to pay attention to those worldly gazes and opinions."

After hearing this, Baili Dongjun's eyes widened in shock. He had never expected that his master, who seemed carefree and unconcerned about trivial matters, could be so open-minded and clear-headed when it came to matters of the heart.

Mo Luyi had long since sensed a unique atmosphere between them. At that moment, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile as she softly said, "Dongjun, when it comes to love, it's best to follow your heart."

Gu Chen looked at the scene before him, his thoughts involuntarily drifting back to the time when they had gone to their courtyard together. The young man's gaze towards Dong Jun was as gentle as the warm spring sun, filled with endless affection and attachment. At the time, he simply thought that the relationship between the brothers was too good.

Recalling that moment, Gu Chen also said: "Love, it is wonderful! It has nothing to do with gender differences, nor is it bound by age. The key is whether you have met the right person. It can also transcend all worldly obstacles and be pure and sincere. Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, such feelings are a bit unorthodox, but for two people who truly love each other, each other is the whole world. It's just that this kind of love requires great courage to persevere, to face the rumors and pressure from the outside world. However, as long as there is love in the heart, what is there to fear?"

Hearing this, Baili Dongjun's heart trembled. He couldn't help but recall every moment he had spent with Brother Yun. Brother Yun's meticulous care, attentive and thoughtful attention, and those heartwarming words kept flashing through his mind. As these memories emerged, the previously vague and special feelings deep within him became increasingly clear.

At this moment, Nangong Chunshui stared at Baili Dongjun with a sharp gaze, as if trying to see through his eyes to his innermost thoughts. Seeing that Baili Dongjun seemed to have a clear understanding of his feelings, he nodded slightly and then changed the subject without leaving a trace: "Dongba, I heard that you killed two people on your way back to Xueyue City?"

Baili Dongjun met his master's gaze, nodded calmly, and replied, "Yes, Master, it is true. Those two are both from the Heaven Beyond Heaven, and one of them is especially so. She is actually their Second Miss Yue Qing!"

Gu Chen, who was standing aside, frowned slightly when he heard this and said in a deep voice, "There is only one Wuxiang Envoy left in Tianwai Tian now, and they still dare to set their sights on Dongjun. They are really not afraid of death!"

Mo Luyi now looked at Baili Dongjun, her eyes filled with encouragement and expectation, and she spoke slowly, "Dongjun, you must redouble your efforts. With your fellow disciples' current strength and potential, if you can achieve further breakthroughs, it won't be long before you can wipe out Yuefeng City. This man is Beique's greatest threat right now, and until he's eliminated, Beique will never be at peace. As for that Wuxiang Envoy, his wisdom is unfathomable, and he's skilled at strategizing and winning battles from afar. He's also a formidable foe, and must not be allowed to stay. However, there's no need to worry too much about the others; it's entirely up to you to decide how to deal with them."

Baili Dongjun bowed respectfully towards Mo Luyi and said earnestly: "I understand, Master's wife, Dongjun has already understood the reason, but..." At this point, he paused for a moment and turned his gaze to Gu Chen and Yue Luo who were standing beside him.

Gu Chen and Yue Luo only took a glance at Baili Dongjun's expression at the moment and instantly understood what he was thinking.

Yueluo smiled and said gently, "You can go ahead without worrying about us. We don't need you to worry about us."

Gu Chen also nodded in agreement, and then said, "That's absolutely right. You should listen to your master's wife. Now that your master has returned, we have him here. What else do you have to worry about? Just take care of the things that you should take care of."

After receiving such support and encouragement from Gu Chen and Yue Luo, Baili Dongjun finally felt at ease and slowly took a few steps back before turning to leave. After leaving, he first thought about buying something for Brother Yun that he would like. After buying a lot of things for Ye Dingzhi, he was about to leave, but then he thought it would be inappropriate to prepare gifts just for Brother Yun, after all, there were other brothers! So, he randomly selected some items suitable for his brothers as a token of his appreciation. After a careful selection, Baili Dongjun happily set off on his journey home, carrying bags of various gifts, ready to find them.

Meanwhile, Nangong Chunshui and Mo Luyi were traveling with Gu Chen and Yueluo, heading straight for Jianxin Tomb. Their purpose was clear: to pick up Li Hanyi. After successfully reuniting, they hurried to the northern border. However, before departing, Mo Luyi specifically instructed Mianmian to remain vigilant of the current situation, lest any unexpected events arise that would leave them unable to respond.

……

For the next period of time, everyone immersed themselves in cultivation. However, during this busy period of practice, everyone noticed that the atmosphere between Baili Dongjun and Ye Dingzhi was becoming increasingly strange. Although everyone felt that something was amiss, out of courtesy and respect, no one dared to ask what was going on.

Just like that, the days passed by quickly like flowing water, but the indescribable subtle atmosphere between the two of them became increasingly rich and mellow like aged wine.

Finally one day, deep in a quiet and peaceful valley, Baili Dongjun and Ye Dingzhi stood side by side. All around them was silent, with only the rustling of leaves in the breeze.

Ye Dingzhi slowly turned his head and gazed deeply at Baili Dongjun beside him. His eyes seemed to be burning with a blazing flame, filled with endless affection, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his mood at the moment.
