At this moment, Zhuli, who was behind them, also came up with a person and a cat, and sighed.

“Even the outer areas have such sacred mountains, this Tianshan Mountain truly deserves to be the holy land of cultivation chosen by the Guanghan Palace.”

Zhu Li has lived in the North Sea since childhood. Although there are spiritual veins in the seabed, they are very rare. The ones that are truly used for future generations to cultivate are all super-large spirit-gathering arrays.

Seeing that spiritual veins are distributed everywhere in this sacred land of Tianshan, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

"Ah..." After thinking for a moment, Ning Yuyao changed her words and said, "Seventh Princess, there's no need to worry. If you'd still like to stay at Tianshan, Master has arranged a better place for you in the inner sect, so you won't have to squeeze in here with Brother Yunhao..."

Candlelight: "..."

Shen Yunhao: "..."

They even arranged this?

As expected of Nie Qingshuang.

However, this way...

Shen Yunhao inexplicably recalled Zhu Li's words in Lin Yuan City.

Monday is Yao'er, Tuesday is...

"Cough! Cough!"

A few dry coughs from Xiaobailong pulled Shen Yunhao, who was lost in his daydreams, back to reality. He then turned to look at the man and the cat, who were almost about to start fighting again.

"What about these two? Has your master said where they'll be staying?"

Ning Yuyao shook her head.

"Huh?" Zhu Li's expression froze. Forgetting everything else, she quickly pulled Ning Yuyao aside. "We're going to live in the inner courtyard and then have these two keep this brat company with our little brother every day? Isn't that backwards?"

Ning Yuyao also touched her chin, her expression somewhat hesitant.

However, before the two could say anything, Shen Yunhao stepped forward and tapped them on the back of the head.

Ning Yuyao: "Ouch!"

Zhuli: "What are you doing?"

Shen Yunhao: "???"

After coughing twice, Shen Yunhao said irritably, "If Milk Tea, as a spirit-devouring beast, were to live in the inner sect like you, what would be the point of me bringing her here?"

"As for Qing Teng, he's just a child. You're jealous of even a child?"

Zhu Li blushed slightly at what was said, but Ning Yuyao pouted and quickly ran to Shen Yunhao's side, grabbing his sleeve. "Yao'er isn't jealous. It was clearly Sister Zhu Li who brought it up..."

Candlelight: "..."

Seriously, where did your sharp tongue go when you were arguing with me?

Now I'm acting like a little coward.

only……

That line, "Sister Zhuli, it sounds so nice," is beautiful.

It would be even better if you called it a few more times...

Shen Yunhao shook his head, raised his hand and pinched the girl's soft cheek, pretending to be angry, and said, "There's one more thing, I'll settle the score with you tonight..."

Ning Yuyao stared at him blankly, somewhat at a loss, wondering what she had done to offend her husband again.

But Zhu Li knew it perfectly well.

When night falls, it won't be about settling accounts anymore. Once they find out about how she improved her physical attributes, they'll probably spoil this girl rotten!

Feeling a pang of jealousy, Zhuli suddenly said, "Little brother, what secrets did that little scorpion whisper to you today? Tell me and... Sister Yao'er, let us hear it!"

Ning Yuyao didn't notice the deliberately proclaimed "little sister" because her attention was completely drawn to "little scorpion."

Shen Yunhao's expression froze for a moment, then he chuckled and said, "What whispers? Didn't I already tell you? She just wanted to sting me. You know, a little scorpion... she's not comfortable if she doesn't sting someone a couple of times a day!"

"Tch! I don't believe it! If that were the case, why would you whisper it like that?" Zhu Li jumped forward and grabbed Shen Yunhao, who was trying to escape: "Tell the truth! Otherwise, don't even think about getting rid of me today!"

Shen Yunhao: "..."

Ning Yuyao: "..."

It feels like your abacus beads are about to hit my face!

...

At the same moment, Mo Yan, with a sneer, was kneading and pinching the girl's face, "Tell me, when did this happen? When did you and that stinky brother do 'that'?"

Mu Shuangshuang said weakly, "What are you talking about? I don't understand..."

Do I need to make myself clearer?

Mo Yan snorted coldly and, mimicking Mu Shuangshuang's previous behavior towards Shen Yunhao, brought her mouth close to the little scorpion's ear and whispered.

"I want to eat you, I want it more and more, when can I have a bite of you..."

Even Mu Shuangshuang blushed deeply upon hearing this incredibly lifelike imitation, and said angrily, "You... how did you know..."

"Heh! You think your little trick of using sound transmission can fool someone at the Void Realm? Aren't you being a bit too naive?"

Seeing that she had been caught red-handed, Mu Shuangshuang could only try to make amends, "Ah... I... I just said it offhand to tease him, I didn't mean anything by it!"

"I don't believe you for a second! Let me tell you, if you don't explain the whole story clearly today, don't even think about going back to the Demonic Sect!"

"Ah—Master, help me..."

...

That night.

The moonlight in the mountains seemed to carry a hint of coolness.

After spending half a day tidying up the place, Zhu Li took Qing Teng and the cat to rest elsewhere in the evening, leaving only Shen Yunhao and Ning Yuyao in his room.

"Brother Yunhao, Master has told you that you can only leave the mountain once your cultivation reaches the Profound Soul Realm. Are you unhappy about this? You can talk to Yao'er about it..."

The flickering candlelight illuminated the room brightly.

Shen Yunhao's room was located outside the cave. It was a wooden house that had been built. It was not very big, but it had everything he needed.

Moreover, thanks to Ning Yuyao's special arrangement, the arrangement of chairs and benches in the room was exactly the same as that of the Shen family in Linyuan City.

At this moment, Ning Yuyao helped Shen Yunhao remove his outer robe and was preparing to go to bed to rest.

"What do I have to complain about..."

Shen Yunhao stretched on the edge of the bed, "There's food, lodging, a place to cultivate, and even a wife to kiss. It's so much better than Lin Yuan City!"

Ning Yuyao glared at him shyly, "You're so unserious..."

But Shen Yunhao pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, saying, "You've been busy all day, why be so serious... Yao'er is the best!"

Ning Yuyao pouted and let him take advantage of her, but in her heart she was still thinking about the little scorpion outside. She couldn't help but ask again, "Brother Yunhao, it took even Yao'er two and a half years to go from Iron Bone to Profound Soul. Brother Yunhao has lived in these mountains for quite a while, so you should think it over carefully!"

It means that you don't know when you'll be able to see your little scorpion again...

Shen Yunhao found it amusing and asked, looking down, "From what Yao'er is saying, if I don't want to, I can still go down the mountain early?"

“Of course…” Ning Yuyao pouted, looking away, her little hands clasped together and fidgeting, as if she were angry, or perhaps just pretending to be. “As long as Yao’er breaks the Heart-Binding Spell, Brother Yunhao can go down the mountain ahead of time…”

"..."

Shen Yunhao shook his head and chuckled.

So this means... you can only choose one between the Heart-to-Heart Mantra and the Little Scorpion, right?

What a clever little devil!

Shen Yunhao stretched out a finger and poked down on the chubby cheeks. "What if I don't want to break the Heart-to-Heart Spell?"

"Then... then I'll just stay here on this mountain and cultivate honestly."

"At least two and a half years..."
