...

When they returned to Gu Ningye's side, they saw that Mu Qiu had already taken off all of Gu Ningye's clothes.

At this moment, Gu Ningye, lying in front of the stone platform, was only able to conceal her maddening body with Shen Zhao's cloak.

"What are you doing?"

Shen Zhao frowned, feeling that Mu Qiuyao was setting a trap for him again.

Unexpectedly, Mu Qiuyao pinched her nose and held out a pair of silk underpants that were already soaked with sweat to him.

"Kid, you've already tasted meat, you must know what this means, right?"

"She's in this state already, and you expect me to just let her go back to Chang'an like this without doing anything about it?"

Shen Zhao frowned.

Mu Qiuyao then hung the underpants on a tree branch and whispered to Shen Zhao, "Were you satisfied with what I gave you last time?"

When Shen Zhao was asked this question, he recalled the scene in Weiyang Palace when he brought the undergarment to his nose and smelled it.

He was so startled that he took two steps back from the woman.

"I'm warning you, don't try this on me, I'm not falling for it."

Seeing Shen Zhao's overreaction, Mu Qiuyao pressed on, leaning close to Shen Zhao's ear and whispering, "What, you must have done something when you received my gift, right?"

Let me think... You must have smelled it, right? What did it smell like? Did it smell good? Or did you do something even worse with my clothes?

Her lips moved with a delicate grace, each word a seductive whisper that stirred the heart and mind.

Shen Zhao's face darkened.

Damn it, she guessed right.

I did smell it, and I even tore the clothes to shreds.

But I'm sorry, I won't admit it.

"I'm not as shallow as you think. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Why aren't you staying in the Northern Region? What's your purpose in coming to Chang'an?"

"Of course I miss you, kid. You didn't even come to see me after we parted last time, which really made me very sad."

As she spoke, she lifted a corner of her Taoist robe, revealing white silk stockings.

"Look, I even prepared some small gifts especially for you, just so I could see you!"

Under the visual impact, Shen Zhao's heart raced.

He quickly covered his nose and turned his face away.

"Can you be serious for once? Stop doing this ridiculous thing."

"When you criticize me, why don't you think about yourself? Where is your own seriousness?"

Do I really need to tell you about what happened between you and Song Yanran?

Shen Zhao was immediately rendered speechless by the question and could only retort, "How can they be the same?"

Mu Qiuyao: "What's different? As far as I know, you had no connection with Song Yanran or even Su Yunying in your past life."

"We ended up like that with them, so why can't I have it easy too?"

"What the hell? Do you think I'm some kind of walking, talking cannon?" Shen Zhao was speechless. "You think you can just pounce on any woman you see?"

"Hahaha..." Mu Qiuyao laughed brightly, "Of course not. If you were to become that thing, you would probably ruin every female cultivator in the entire cultivation world."

Shen Zhao was speechless, knowing he couldn't continue this pointless topic. He glanced around and asked, "By the way, where are Ding Bu and the others?"

“I told him to go and collect some firewood nearby, he won’t be back for a while.”

Then he took a few steps closer to Shen Zhao and looked up at his handsome face.

"Kid, you really don't have any feelings for me at all?"
