"hiss!"
Jiang Yuan rubbed his eyes and groggily got up. When he realized it was already light, he slapped his forehead, "I missed taking Xiao Xiao to school!"
"Don't worry, I've already sent her to the Demon God Kingdom!"
The door was pushed open, and Bu Yao, dressed in a blue and white fairy dress and with her hair styled in a high bun, stood in front of Jiang Yuan. Her dignified and elegant temperament made Jiang Yuan's heart flutter.
“I was afraid you would be sad to see Xiaoxiao leave, so I didn’t call you!” Bu Yao sat down on the edge of the bed, smoothing her skirt.
"So beautiful, it's like seeing a fairy!" Jiang Yuan couldn't take his eyes off Bu Yao.
He had only ever seen modern, lightweight clothing before, so Bu Yao's ancient costume was on a completely different level in his eyes. No wonder he couldn't take his eyes off her at first glance.
"Today is the day the Holy Spirit Clan's inheritance space opens, I didn't dress up specifically for you!" Bu Yao turned her face away, afraid that Jiang Yuan would see the blush on her face.
Having spent so much time with Jiang Yuan, Bu Yao had actually heard him speak very rarely, let alone praise her.
"Really? We can enter the inheritance space today!" Jiang Yuan had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"This was prepared for you! Since you are an outsider, you can only wear a light white robe when entering the Holy Spirit Space to show respect to the ancestors of the Holy Spirit Clan, but I secretly added gold trim to it so it won't look so bad!"
Bu Yao took out a long robe and placed it next to Jiang Yuan.
"Are there any dress codes?" Jiang Yuan was surprised; there weren't so many rules when he entered the inheritance space last time.
“I know you’ve been inside before, but this time is different. Last time, the battlefield hadn’t fully recovered, so the holy spirits of the various races couldn’t communicate with each other! This time, the bloodline inheritance space is accessible to all races, and many talented young people will enter the inheritance space to obtain bloodlines, so there are some unspoken rules regarding identity! But it doesn’t matter, if you have a gold-edged pattern, it means you’re my… well, you know, and the areas you can enter will increase a lot!” Bu Yao stammered and repeated the word “that” several times.
"Which one?" Jiang Yuan asked deliberately.
"Hey, hurry up and put it on, or I won't wait for you any longer!" Bu Yao stood up and helped Jiang Yuan smooth out his robe.
"Yao'er!"
Jiang Yuan got up to change his clothes, then asked, "Were you serious about what you said yesterday?"
"Are you serious?" Bu Yao asked directly.
Jiang Yuan sighed inwardly. He knew that Bu Yao was asking whether it was because she loved them or simply because she was responsible.
"See? You're not even sure yourself, yet you come to me for answers! I'm very clear about what I'm pursuing, otherwise I wouldn't have taken care of you for five years. I don't care if you have nothing, but I want you to have me and Xiaoxiao in your eyes! If you can't do that, or if you only have Xiaoxiao in your eyes, then there's no need for us to continue talking!" Bu Yao said forcefully. She had realized her own feelings after saying those words yesterday.
If she hadn't developed some kind of affection for him, she wouldn't have given up her status as a saintess to have a child, nor would she have been demoted to a menial servant to take care of Jiang Yuan for five years despite the infamy.
"Yao'er, this is a storage ring I found on the road yesterday. You can use it. Whenever you miss Xiaoxiao, you can teleport there to see her!" Jiang Yuan put all the Holy Spirit Crystals he had stolen from Mu Tianhe and his gang yesterday into a storage ring.
Bu Yao took the storage ring and looked at it, then asked suspiciously, "Yesterday, Mu Tianhe was seriously injured. When his family asked him what happened, he wouldn't say. Could it be that you did it?"
"Huh, did I hit him? Did I?" Jiang Yuan's eyes darted around, avoiding Bu Yao's gaze.
"No wonder Mu Tianhe was giving you trouble yesterday!"
Bu Yao loosened her grip, and the robe slipped down. She then casually checked his body for any injuries.
"It's alright. With his fighting ability, I'm the one who'll beat him up. He can't possibly hurt me!"
Jiang Yuan hurriedly picked up the robe and put it on.
"You're really not injured? Before Xiaoxiao went to the Divine Kingdom, she specifically told me to take good care of you. If you get hurt, your precious daughter won't let me off the hook!" Bu Yao looked Jiang Yuan up and down.
Jiang Yuan, channeling his inner drama queen, clutched his chest and wailed, "Now that you mention it, I really am injured!"
After saying that, he pressed Bu Yao down on the bed, and then said with a pained expression, "My heart is in so much pain, especially when I heard Mu Tianhe say that he had liked you for so many years, my heart was breaking, and I couldn't help but beat him up!"
"You've gotten bolder since Xiaoxiao left, haven't you?" Bu Yao put her hands in front of her. She had some experience; men who had just woken up were especially not to be trifled with.
"Beautiful, so beautiful!" Jiang Yuan pressed her down on the bed and did nothing but quietly look at Bu Yao.
"You're still as scoundrel as ever!" Bu Yao blushed as she recalled what Jiang Yuan had done to her in the sacred coffin.
Jiang Yuan bent down and gently inhaled the fragrance emanating from Bu Yao, then said earnestly, "Come on, I'll take you to get the Sacred Divine Vein!"
Upon hearing Jiang Yuan mention giving her the Sacred Divine Vein again, Bu Yao couldn't help but ask, "Are you really not joking?"
"If I had to say what I can use to express my feelings for you right now, I think it would probably be the Holy Divine Vein!" Jiang Yuan pondered.
"If you can really obtain the Holy Divine Vein, your say in this family will increase significantly!"
Bu Yao gently ran her fingers across Jiang Yuan's face, her expression unusually shy. After a short separation, the two of them had let loose a little of their natural instincts.
If Xiaoxiao knew that she had become an obstacle to her mother's and father's love, she would definitely be furious.
"Let's go, right now!"
...
"Fellow descendants of the Sword Spirit Clan, the Divine Mountain Exchange Conference will be held soon. I hope you will seize the opportunity of bloodline inheritance, obtain a good bloodline, and shine brightly at the Divine Mountain Exchange Conference!"
