Chapter 105 105 You can have a young, handsome man, or you can have me.

Before Jiang Yan could react, the "coal ball" inside her body suddenly burst out.

All I heard was it chirping and babbling, "Ooh, my master's heart is beating so fast... I'm so scared!"

Jiang Yan blushed, frowned, and gently scolded, "Nonsense, that was clearly your heartbeat!"

The coal ball muttered softly, "No, it didn't..."

Jiang Yan shot her a piercing look, and Coal Ball wisely shut his mouth, his face full of piety: "That's right, it's mine!"

The wind howled outside the cave.

Lin Yun, Dongfang Chen, Shen Yuchen, Gongsun Jin, Ling Yue, and Ling Yue arrived quietly, and then all stood there stunned.

Jiang Yan felt as if the hand gripping her wrist was a branding iron, making it impossible for her to break free.

Xiao Mei's voice suddenly rang in his mind: "Host, don't be fooled by his sweet words. He must be coveting your inner core."

Feng Qingyu raised her finger and a white light flashed, instantly silencing Xiao Mei.

He could only groan in helpless rage, "Host! He's completely lacking in martial ethics!"

"Host, don't forget, we...we're going back! We can't let him be bewitched by his sorcery!"

Feng Qingyu raised her hand again, and the voice in Jiang Yan's mind completely quieted down.

Jiang Yan was utterly shocked. His magic was so powerful?!

Feng Qingyu raised her palm, and a warm breath enveloped her eyes.

She subconsciously closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her vision immediately became clear, and she was caught off guard by his deep, calm, yet exceptionally serious eyes.

She heard him persistently ask, "Is it that you don't want to say, can't say, or dare not say?"

Jiang Yan's gaze shifted slightly. "Of course I care. After all, we've spent so much time together, we're practically friends now!"

"We're just friends, so why is your heart beating so fast? Aren't you even slightly moved or unable to control your feelings?"

"..."

Jiang Yan opened her mouth slightly, but before she could speak...

Suddenly he said, "My feelings won't shake your original intentions, will they? If that's the case, why suppress the growth of your inner feelings?"

Jiang Yan clenched her fists slightly, frowned, and said seriously, "Feng Qingyu, there's no future in liking me."

Feng Qingyu was silent for a moment, then said sincerely, "More than any outcome, I care about how you feel at this moment. Now that you know my feelings, are you happy, or... more heartbroken?"

He looked at her and spoke again: "Jiang Yan, there are some feelings I can't stop, and neither can you. I have no intention of changing any of your decisions, and I know it's impossible to change them. I just want you to know that, no matter how far apart we are, this love is true."

Jiang Yan felt her heart skip a beat, and the demonic aura around her seemed to intensify. For a moment, she really began to wonder if he had cast some kind of spell on her.

A muffled roar from Xiaomei echoed in his mind: "Host, calm down! I told you to break the contract, not to date them! Think about your billions! Think about your mansion! Once we're rich, what kind of young heartthrobs can't we find? What use are these good-looking but useless old men?!"

Before Jiang Yan could speak, Feng Qingyu suddenly said, "Why make such a difficult choice? You can have money, a young and handsome man, and me all at once. Whether it's good or not, you can only judge for yourself after trying it out, right?"

Although Feng Qingyu didn't know what a "little fresh meat" was, it didn't seem important at the moment.

Jiang Yan was utterly shocked: "..."

This world is absolutely insane!

Xiao Mei roared silently: I'm going to fight these shameless mosaics!

A faint sound came from the cave entrance. Jiang Yan turned her head and met several gossipy faces.

The one in the blue robe at the head of the group must be Lin Yun. The young man had bright, clear features and a gentle demeanor. Standing among the crowd, he was like a fresh bamboo shoot, fresh and elegant.

Their eyes met, and the joy in his eyes was obvious, like the warm spring sun shining directly into her heart.

Before Lin Yun could even take a step closer, Dongfang Chen, standing beside him, beat him to it.

Jiang Yan's gaze shifted to the figure in black robes. Compared to the others, Dongfang Chen's features were more rugged. His eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were exceptionally deep.

Dongfang Chen stopped a step away from her, looked at her and said, "Since you're alright, go back. Lord Chi Ling and the others are still waiting at the foot of the mountain."

After saying that, he bent down and pulled the person on the ground up.

Jiang Yan glanced at his hand gripping her wrist, then subtly pulled it away, frowning as she said, "I can walk by myself..."

She had just conjured the black iron sword and hadn't even had a chance to ride it away when she heard Feng Qingyu's voice sound behind her again, "I was reckless just now, but I don't regret what I said today."

Jiang Yan turned her head and glanced at him, not intending to say anything more to him.

When I looked away, I saw Gongsun Jin standing outside the cave.

He calmly raised his eyes, his gaze meeting hers across the distance, his eyes utterly serene.

Jiang Yan was momentarily dazed. This little immortal was indeed a stunning beauty, living up to his reputation. He had the kind of looks she used to love the most, and he was practically a god!

This cultivation world is indeed not a place to linger!

Jiang Yan composed herself and, without the slightest hesitation, used the black iron sword to quickly leave the cave.

Lin Yun realized what was happening and quickly followed. Ling Yue and Xiao Bai also followed closely behind.

Inside the cave, Dongfang Chen glanced at Feng Qingyu and then followed.

Feng Qingyu slowly walked out from inside, looked at Gongsun Jin outside the cave and chuckled, "Since when did Little Immortal Lord also like to eavesdrop on people's conversations?"

Gongsun Jin said calmly, "I have no interest in the Demon Emperor's feelings; I just happened to bump into him. I'm just a little curious, though. Knowing that she had no choice but to leave, why did the Demon Emperor still tell you about his feelings?"

"There aren't so many whys in this world. Perhaps it's just a momentary impulse." After saying that, Feng Qingyu turned her head to look at the person beside her and said, "As rational as Little Immortal Lord, why ask such a question?"

Gongsun Jin frowned, then smiled with relief.

When they descended the mountain, Jiang Yan and the others had already reunited with their ancestral grandmother and Lord Wangyou.

The ancestral master looked Jiang Yan up and down and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she did not have any major injuries.

Jiang Yan frowned and asked, "Grandmaster, what exactly is the Heavenly Heart Glazed Lamp? Why did that demon believe I possess that treasure?"

The patriarch's eyes widened slightly, then she smiled and said, "I have never seen it. It is probably just a legend. Many people have heard of it, but few have seen it. It is not something important."

"It's nothing important?" Jiang Yan asked, slightly surprised.

She wasn't sure for a moment whether the patriarch had truly never seen her or was hiding something.

The patriarch took her hand and led her towards Medicine King Valley: "Why care about those illusory things? No matter how magnificent everything in this world is, it is not even a fraction of your own."

"By the way, next time you encounter that demon, have Lin Yun stand in front of you. He's tough and thick-skinned, so he won't be afraid of being hit."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan couldn't help but laugh.

Ling Yue, who was standing beside her, immediately spoke up: "I... I'm tough too!"

Lin Yun glared at the rabbit that never missed a chance to join in the fun.

Grandma looked at Jiang Yan and said, "With such a group of sensible and considerate people by your side, I can rest assured."

The group arrived at Medicine King Valley, chatting and laughing.

The matriarch then took Jiang Yan to the pharmacy and found her some medicinal herbs: "Take these back and use them to treat their wounds."

Jiang Yan thanked them and left the pharmacy with the items in her hands.

When she returned to her room, she saw that they were already waiting at her door. Thanks to the magic that Feng Qingyu had cast on her, she could clearly see the joy in their eyes.

Lin Yun was already sitting by her bedside, his shirt off and waiting calmly, which made Jiang Yan's heart skip a beat again.
