"Go away...go away...you stinky brother..."

However, faced with Shen Yunhao's sudden affectionate gesture, the little girl blushed and bit her lip, trying to push him away.

It was only then that Shen Yunhao finally realized something was wrong.

In the past, whenever she had the thought of taking advantage of others, Mo Yan would immediately run away if caught, leaving Qing Teng to endure Shen Yunhao's "loving kisses".

To put it simply, he would just casually pick her up and give her a couple of nibbles; this had long been a habit of Shen Yunhao's daily teasing of the little girl.

However, this time... Mo Yan's reaction seemed to have become much slower. Even after being kissed several times by herself, she still couldn't call Qing Teng to take the blame.

The girl herself seemed to realize something was wrong, and the next moment, her whole body turned green.

Her original purple eyes and purple dress have changed to a bluish-green color, and the ends of her hair, which had a slight purple tinge, have turned pure black.

"Yun...Brother Yunhao...this place isn't good..."

The young girl called out softly, her eyes filled with endless shyness, as if she had become that young girl again.

Something's not right! Something's not right...

Shen Yunhao stared at the suddenly appearing "green vine" in front of him, feeling that something was off about it.

First of all, compared to the proud and aloof Wisteria, the adorable Green Vine loves to snuggle up with her Yunhao brother!

Especially after such a long time apart, if she suddenly saw him again, she would definitely snuggle into his arms immediately, instead of acting like she was trying to refuse him.

Secondly... apart from the difference in color, green vines and wisteria are almost identical in appearance.

However, appearance does not represent personality or temperament.

Having spent so much time together, Shen Yunhao naturally knew that Qing Teng and Mo Yan had completely different personalities, practically worlds apart!

The one in front of me, although exactly the same as Qing Teng, clearly lacks Qing Teng's obedient and charming temperament!

Thinking of this, Shen Yunhao smiled and reached out to pat the girl's head: "My dear Qing Teng! How's home?"

"Qing Teng" blushed even more, biting her lip as she said, "Home...home is very good, my sister takes good care of me...Brother Yunhao, please let go of me first..."

"open?"

Shen Yunhao's smile widened, but he completely ignored the girl's request and leaned close to her ear for a light kiss: "Why do you want to let go? Doesn't Qing Teng like it?"

"I...I like it...but...but..."

"If you like it, I'll kiss you two more times..."

"Bang! Bang! Swoosh!"

"Hey! Hey! Ouch, don't hit my face! Don't hit my face! You brat, stop!"

"..."

Outside the carriage, the driver effortlessly guided the horses.

"Strange... Why is this car swaying like this? Could it be that this mountain road needs repairs?"

After a long while, Shen Yunhao sat opposite him with a sorrowful expression and a head full of bumps.

"It's just two kisses, what a stingy attitude... Sure enough, love can fade away, right..."

Mo Yan: "..."

Realizing she hadn't convincingly portrayed the green vine, the girl transformed back into a wisteria vine once more.

However, a trace of powder still lingered at the corners of her eyes and brows.

"You know who I am and you still dare to be disobedient? Do you think everyone is as easy to bully as Qing Teng?" Mo Yan pouted, rolling her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky.

This brat is getting more and more arrogant...

Generally speaking, only Qing Teng would be foolish enough to let Shen Yunhao take advantage of her.

So when Shen Yunhao approached, she quickly transformed into the form of a green vine, pretending that it was the green vine that Shen Yunhao was bullying, thus maintaining the high-class image of the wisteria...

This self-deceiving behavior was naturally difficult to hide from Shen Yunhao.

Knowing full well it was Mo Yan, Shen Yunhao still eagerly came over to bite her, which was clearly testing Mo Yan's bottom line, so it was only natural that he got beaten up.

Despite being beaten, Shen Yunhao was secretly pleased, grinning foolishly at the girl in purple opposite him.

"What are you laughing at?" Mo Yan gritted her teeth and said, "It was just two kisses... I'll just pretend I was bitten by a wild boar..."

Shen Yunhao didn't mind, smiled, and moved closer to the girl once again.

Seeing the girl's warning gaze, he didn't dare to do anything further, but just smiled and said, "So concerned about me... you even came out of the Spirit Valley in your true form..."

If it were an external incarnation, there's no reason it couldn't produce a green vine.

The way it looks now is clearly because the main body under the Wan Teng Cave has broken free of the seal and escaped!

"What...what nonsense are you talking about?" Mo Yan's face flushed red. "What do I care about you! What does it have to do with me if you get beaten to death? I came out because it was too boring down there..."

Those two small, white feet unconsciously kicked back and forth, drawing beautiful arcs.

Seeing that the girl's words didn't reflect her true feelings, Shen Yunhao chuckled inwardly but didn't expose her. He turned to her and asked, "You came out like this? Is everything alright down in Lingyou Valley? Did anything happen?"

"Tch! This brat is really something. He hasn't even figured out his own problems, yet he's already worrying about other people's business? What do you care about the lives of those demons?"

"Of course I don't care about them..."

"Then why are you asking this?"

"I care about you..."

Mo Yan was stunned for a moment.

Shen Yunhao sighed, took the girl's small hand and said, "Although the seal is just a shell, it was specially prepared to seal you. It won't be so easy to break free... Moreover, your master sealed you under the Ten Thousand Vine Cave back then, most likely because there was something else down there. Now that you've broken free of the seal, haven't you been affected?"

"..."

Looking at her small hand being pinched, Mo Yan subconsciously tried to pull away.

They did not break free.

He hung his head and remained silent for a long while: "They're fine, and I... I'm fine too, you don't need to worry..."

Her tone was weak and soft, making it hard to believe she was the same arrogant wisteria girl from before.

Shen Yunhao suddenly turned his head, leaned closer and stared at the little girl for a long time, revealing a faint smile: "I never realized before, but you're just as cute as that girl Qing Teng..."

"Huh?" Mo Yan was furious upon hearing this, turned around and kicked him: "You stinky brother..."

Shen Yunhao dodged the small foot, shook his head and laughed, "Alright, enough fooling around. We've come all this way, let's talk about something serious! Back in the underground palace, didn't you see me get stabbed by Mu Shuangshuang? Actually..."

"Of course I know it wasn't that little scorpion..." Mo Yan snorted coldly, her purple eyes filled with wisdom, and she put her hands behind her back, saying, "If she really wanted to kill you, she would have done it already. Why would she just stand there letting you take advantage of her with your sweet talk for so long? Besides..."

Mo Yan suddenly leaned closer and sniffed.

"The demonic aura emanating from you hasn't dissipated yet..."

"Demon aura?"

Shen Yunhao frowned.

So much time has passed, where would there still be any demonic aura?

"Isn't that the demonic energy of that little scorpion in your hand?"

"hand……"

Shen Yunhao instantly understood, and his old face turned a deep purplish-red.
