Gongsun Nan and Yan Tang stayed here to heal their wounds. After hiding for half a year, they were discovered by the demons, but by then their injuries had almost healed. The two joined forces to escape from the demon realm. This process was naturally full of hardships and dangers, after all, there was more than one demon god in the demon realm, and neither of them wanted to let go of a potential future enemy.
After escaping the demon realm, the two parted ways.
By then, their relationship had improved considerably.
The setting sun was like blood, the evening glow filled the sky, and birds returned to their nests.
The girl in white stood before the young man in black, and the two seemed reluctant to part. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the young man in black, softening the features of his face compared to usual, and his gaze towards the girl was also gentle.
“Let’s part ways here!” Yan Tang said.
Not far away, a warship of the Great Sun Golden Crow Clan was moored. Gongsun Nan glanced at the Golden Crow Clan's ship. He was somewhat reluctant to let the girl in front of him leave, but he couldn't think of any words to make her stay. Finally, he said, "Alright! Let's part ways here! Next time we meet, I will definitely be an Immortal Emperor. I hope you won't be too pathetic."
His words immediately dispelled the ambiguous atmosphere. Yan Tang glared at him and said, "You defeated opponent, just you wait, I will definitely become an Immortal Emperor before you."
"Then we'll have another match, and I'm determined to avenge my defeat," Gongsun Nan said.
"Let's compete, but you'll still lose," Yan Tang said with a smile.
After saying this, she transformed into a golden rainbow and flew towards the Golden Crow Clan's warship. Gongsun Nan stood still, watching her board the ship, and then watched him from the deck. Next, the array on the warship activated, golden light enveloping the entire vessel, and the sky filled with brilliant golden clouds. The warship was then teleported away.
Gongsun Nan stared at the empty sky for a long time before turning and leaving.
After returning to the Gongsun family, he often found himself lost in thought. He would stare blankly in one direction, a smile occasionally playing on his lips. Ayao wondered, "Is he lovesick?"
In the courtyard, cherry blossoms were like snow.
A young man with black hair and a black robe sat at his desk, holding a brush and meticulously sketching a girl dressed as a man. He was very focused on his drawing, and the girl's appearance and expression were painted with great detail and lifelikeness. She held a sword, and her eyes seemed to be gazing at someone outside the painting.
Standing to the side, Ayao looked at Yan Tang's portrait, her feelings becoming complicated again.
She remembered that Xu Fengzhi had once painted a portrait of her, and she also remembered the poem he had written on that painting.
I will cherish it in my heart forever; how could I ever forget it?
Gongsun Yu was unaware of Gongsun Nan's thoughts and kept trying to find him a marriage partner.
"Since you don't like the young emperor of the Golden Crow Clan, then consider other women. The Vermilion Bird Clan, Qingxu Palace, Penglai, and Qilin Clan are all interested in forming marriage alliances with us. There's also the Immortal King Yudie, the daughter of the Xuanji Immortal Emperor. She is deeply in love with you. You could consider her. If the two of you cultivate together, it will be very beneficial."
With Gongsun Nan's looks, cultivation level, and extraordinary talent, there are countless women who want to marry him. Gongsun Yu is too lazy to mention ordinary people; those he mentioned are women he has carefully selected who he feels are a good match for Gongsun Nan in terms of family background, appearance, and cultivation.
Gongsun Nan looked impatient. He was too embarrassed to admit that he liked Yan Tang now, so he said, "I'm not interested. I need to go into seclusion to cultivate and break through to the Immortal Emperor realm. Don't bother me unless you have something else to do."
Therefore, Gongsun Nan went into seclusion.
He secluded himself for five thousand years, and after that, he successfully entered the Immortal Emperor realm. Yan Tang and Jingxin Wuchen also entered the Immortal Emperor realm one after the other.
He excitedly went to find Yan Tang, only to find her with someone else.
The enormous sacred tree was covered in white petals, and a man and a woman stood beneath it.
The young man had long, silver-white hair that cascaded down to his waist like a galaxy. He was tall and slender, with stunningly beautiful features. His heterochromatic eyes were filled with tenderness as he gazed at the girl standing before him.
The girl, dressed in a pale yellow dress, held a flower in her hand, gently sniffed it, and gave the silver-haired, heterochromatic-eyed man a bright smile.
Jingxin Wuchen with Yan Tang.
A Yao looked at Gongsun Nan; the smile on his face had long since vanished, replaced by an extremely sinister expression.
This was the first time he had seen Yan Tang dressed as a woman. She finally looked like a woman in women's clothing, but she wasn't dressed for him; she was dressed for another man, the one he hated most. Her intimacy with Jingxin Wuchen made him seem like he was just being delusional.
Ayao didn't know whether she should gloat or not.
She gazed at Jingxin Wuchen and Yan Tang in the distance, unable to hear what they were saying. But they both seemed very happy, as if she could see Luo Bai and Yan Tang standing together, behaving intimately and chatting happily.
She felt a little uncomfortable.
She even felt that her mood was in sync with Gongsun Nan's.
Gongsun Nan didn't go over; he turned and left with a cold face.
Later, Yan Tang visited the Gongsun family. She wanted to see Gongsun Nan, but Gongsun Nan refused to see her and had someone send her away.
Then, the Demon Realm, in alliance with the Dark Realm, the Underworld, and the four realms of Immortals, Ancient Demons, and Spirits, went to war. As Immortal Emperors of the Spirit Realm, Gongsun Nan and Gongsun Yu both participated in the war. The Celestial Race, the Great Sun Golden Crow Clan, the Dragon Clan, the Phoenix Clan, and others also joined the war.
On the battlefield, Gongsun Nan encountered Yan Tang again. Yan Tang was all smiles and laughter, while Gongsun Nan remained indifferent, leaving Yan Tang puzzled. Yan Tang was a woman who disliked dragging things out, so she directly pulled Gongsun Nan aside to ask him directly.
"Does Fellow Daoist Gongsun have some misunderstanding about me? Why are you so cold?" Yan Tang said.
“We didn’t have much of a relationship to begin with,” Gongsun Nan said.
"Do you really think that way? I don't believe it. What did I do to offend you?" Yan Tang said.
"You didn't offend me, it's just that I feel we're not on the same wavelength." Gongsun Nan finished speaking and was about to leave when Yan Tang grabbed one of his hands.
"Explain what you mean clearly!"
Let go!
"I won't let go until you explain yourself. What did I do to upset you? Last time I came to see you, you deliberately refused to see me," Yan Tang said angrily.
“The young emperor of the Golden Crow Clan is pulling and tugging at me like that. Aren’t you afraid of being seen and what kind of gossip will spread?”
"I'm not afraid!"
"Aren't you afraid that these words will reach Jingxin Wuchen's ears?"
"Jingxin Wuchen?" Yan Tang looked at him in confusion. "Why are you bringing him up?"
"Can't I mention him? Didn't you two have a very pleasant conversation last time?"
“Last time, when you were referring to Qingqiu White Jade City, I was puzzled because I could sense your presence but couldn’t find you. So, you really are here,” Yan Tang said with a smile.
