She recalled a forbidden book she had secretly read in her boudoir, and her heart fluttered as she tentatively explored it with her tongue.
Zuan instinctively responded to her, but suddenly he was startled. What was going on?
Xie Daoyun, a young girl, was no match for his teasing. She felt lightheaded and as if her soul was about to leave her body.
"Is this what kissing feels like, as described in the book?"
Just then, the conversation between Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei could be heard from afar: "Hey, that door over there seems to be open. They must still be awake."
The people inside were terrified. Zu An could no longer hold on and nearly crushed Xie Daoyun with his bare hands.
Feeling him panting heavily and trembling uncontrollably, Xie Daoyun became even more embarrassed, thinking that her brother's reaction was a bit too much. Did he like her that much too?
However, she couldn't think about these things at the moment. She mustered up her courage, pushed Zu An away, and hurriedly ran outside. She didn't want Qiu Honglei and Yun Jianyue to see her sneaking over to kiss Brother Zu. It would be too embarrassing.
The key point is that Qiu Honglei and Brother Zu are a couple, so my behavior is too despicable.
"Hey, Miss Xie, what are you doing here?" Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei's surprised voices came from outside.
Because they were captured together by Sun En, Yun Jianyue and Xie Daoyun had a good relationship.
"I didn't do anything!" Xie Daoyun waved her hand guiltily, but quickly realized her mistake and added, "I wanted to ask Brother Zu for his opinion on the matter of the academy and the Chancellor."
"Is that so?" Qiu Honglei and Yun Jianyue looked at her with some suspicion. Her face was so red, and her eyes were almost dripping with tears. In particular, her delicate lips were even more moist and beautiful than usual.
The two people in the room were even more flustered. Pei Mianman straightened her clothes with one hand and covered her mouth with the other as she ran to the window. Before leaving, she glared at Zu An with a mixture of shame and anger.
It was one thing to deal with Xie Daoyun, but Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei were even more powerful. If he hid in the room again, he would definitely be discovered.
Anyway, I've said goodbye to Zu'an this time, and I've achieved my goal. Other fox spirits coming here these days would probably be a waste of time.
Thinking of this, her mood improved considerably. She turned back and smiled sweetly at Zu An before disappearing into the night sky.
With Fu Hao Xiao Zun around, she was a queen of stealth in the night, so she didn't have to worry about being discovered by the guards outside.
No sooner had she left than Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei entered the room and saw Zu An waving his hands incessantly, seemingly fanning something.
"What are you doing?" Yun Jianyue asked in confusion.
"There are so many mosquitoes today, hahaha. This Zishan is great in every way, except for this one thing," Zu'an chuckled.
"Mosquitoes?" Both women found it strange. With his current cultivation level, mosquitoes would be killed by his protective aura as soon as they got close, so why would he need to shoo them away?
Zu An felt a little guilty and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Why did you come over in such a hurry? Is there something you need?"
As expected, the two women quickly lost interest in the mosquitoes: "Azu, we've come here to say goodbye."
Zuan was taken aback: "You're leaving too?"
What's going on? Everyone's come to say goodbye.
"Also?" Yun Jianyue's eyes held a dangerous glint.
Ignoring her, Zu An hurriedly grabbed Qiu Honglei's hand and asked, "Why are you leaving so soon?"
Qiu Honglei pouted and looked in her master's direction with a pitiful expression, clearly reluctant to leave.
Yun Jianyue said irritably, "Our identities are sensitive. If they are exposed, it will cause him a lot of trouble. Let's take this opportunity to lay low and leave here first. If you want to come and find him later, just come back. He won't run away."
Qiu Honglei thought to herself that he wouldn't run away, but the number of vixens around him would probably increase, and she would be under a lot of pressure then.
At this moment, Yun Jianyue said in a deep voice, "Last time I heard in Zishan that Lu Sanyuan had brought a large army to the vicinity. I didn't have time to react before I was taken to the secret realm with you. Now that I'm finally back, I naturally need to go and see if there's a problem at the main altar."
Zu An felt a chill run down his spine, realizing why she was being so cautious. Lu Sanyuan was nominally a righteous army under the Demonic Sect, yet Yun Jianyue, the sect leader, was completely unaware of their large-scale mobilization—a highly dangerous sign.
Either Lu Sanyuan has developed the idea of becoming independent and rebellious, or there are other forces within the Demonic Sect that are trying to undermine Yun Jianyue.
Qiu Honglei understood the gravity of the situation: "Master, I'll go back with you to help you."
Yun Jianyue nodded with satisfaction. This disciple was not raised in vain; he wasn't the type to only care about men and not about family.
Zuan couldn't help but ask, "Do you want me to help you?"
"Not for now, I can handle it," Yun Jianyue refused domineeringly.
The group chatted for a while longer before Qiu Honglei reluctantly took her leave.
Zu An escorted him to the outside of the courtyard. Before leaving, Yun Jianyue suddenly turned back and gave him a cold look: "Your belt is tied wrong."
