Fang Kongyi knew very well that if the emperor knew about the Boundary-Breaking Epiphyllum, he would never let them go, so he came up with a plan and decided to take advantage of the situation, which would be a good opportunity to force Yu Ze.
In order to protect Xie Qi, Fang Kongyi pretended to let others think that he was the boundary-breaking Tan demon, and then was captured and taken into the Glazed Tower.
That evil cultivator had greatly underestimated Fang Kongyi's true strength. For Fang Kongyi, escaping from the Glazed Tower was as easy as pie. He only needed to flick his fingers to easily open the space transmission channel.
So, after Fang Kongyi successfully escaped from the glazed tower, he performed a little sleight of hand and placed a fake boundary-breaking night-blooming cereus into the glazed tower.
At this time, due to the sudden death of the emperor, the prince quickly rushed to the palace. The ministers were all bewildered by the emperor's sudden death and had no idea what had happened.
Facing everyone's questions, Fang Kongyi calmly explained to them: "The emperor was harmed by an evil monk. By the time I arrived, it was too late."
The ministers believed Fang Kongyi's words without a doubt. After all, the Tianxuan Sect had always been the representative of justice in the eyes of the people. Moreover, due to the sudden death of the emperor, the prince naturally ascended to the throne.
On the other side, when it gradually darkened, the two slowly returned to Tianxuan Sect.
At night, Xie Qi lay on the other side of the bed. His sleeping posture was very proper, as if he was afraid of disturbing Yu Ze.
However, in this quiet atmosphere, Yu Ze looked at Xie Qi, and his thoughts involuntarily drifted back to Xie Qi's childhood.
Xie Qi was so small at that time that as long as Yu Ze hugged him, he could hold Xie Qi in his arms without worrying that Xie Qi would be in danger.
After hesitating for a moment, Yu Ze pursed his lips and asked softly, "Can I hold you while I sleep?"
When Xie Qi heard this, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face. He quickly sat up, hugged Yu Ze's waist, and said excitedly: "Of course, Master, it's been a long time since you hugged me to sleep!"
So, the two people who had originally slept in separate beds suddenly lay in the same bed on this day like they did when they were children.
Yu Ze held Xie Qi in his arms, feeling his warmth. At this moment, Yu Ze's heart was filled with peace of mind and satisfaction. He closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.
Xie Qi's feelings for Yu Ze grew even deeper after what happened in Yao Country. He was even more certain that Yu Ze still had him in his heart, and this realization filled him with joy.
So, he happily snuggled into Yu Ze's arms again, as if he wanted to completely integrate himself into Yu Ze's arms.
Not only that, Xie Qi also secretly made up his mind to make Yu Ze more and more reluctant to leave him.
From then on, Xie Qi would stick to Yu Ze intentionally or unintentionally every day, not missing any opportunity to get close to him.
At the same time, Xie Qi also followed the method taught by Fang Kongyi and quietly launched a strategy to attack Yu Ze.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years had passed. Xie Qi's bone age had reached eighteen years old, and his height was even a few centimeters taller than Yu Ze's.
Meanwhile, Yu Ze was also undergoing a subtle change. He began to slowly perceive the emotions of humankind, and his mood would fluctuate with Xie Qi's words. However, he still had no idea about the complex emotion of love.
One day, Fang Kongyi hurried back to Tianxuan Sect from the foot of the mountain, and went straight to Xie Qi's yard.
"Xie Qi!" Fang Kongyi's shout echoed in the yard.
Xie Qi, who was concentrating on practicing sword, heard the sound, put away his sword and asked, "What are you doing here again?"
Fang Kongyi sat at the stone table, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and looked Xie Qi up and down. "You're growing up too slowly, but at least you've finally reached adulthood."
Xie Qi sheathed his sword and sat down on the stone bench. "Master will be back soon. Tell me if you have anything to say."
When Fang Kongyi heard this, he suddenly asked seriously, "Do you still like your master now?"
Xie Qi: "I like it. I want to become a Taoist partner with Master, but Master hasn't figured it out yet."
As soon as Xie Qi finished speaking, Fang Kongyi suddenly smiled and said, "Okay! Since you still like him, these books are for you."
Xie Qi stared at the books with suspicion, wondering what on earth they were. But when he opened a page, he immediately threw it away.
His face also turned red, and he pointed at Fang Kongyi and stammered: "You...what is this!"
Fang Kongyi said disapprovingly: "It's a pornographic picture."
"I...of course I know. But...why did you give me this!"
Fang Kongyi looked at Xie Qi's face, which was as red as a ripe apple, and couldn't help but smile mischievously. He said jokingly, "I really misjudged him before. I thought Yu Ze was the one who held the dominant position. I didn't expect that..."
His eyes wandered over Xie Qi unscrupulously, from top to bottom, as if he wanted to see through him. Then he continued, "As attackers like us, we must practice our skills well to prevent our wives from suffering. So, I picked these books especially for you. Consider them your coming-of-age gift. Don't thank me too much."
As soon as Fang Kongyi finished speaking, Yu Ze happened to walk in from outside. Seeing this, Xie Qi's heart tightened, and his hand reached out as fast as lightning. With a flick of his hand, he put those books into his savings ring.
Yu Ze looked at Fang Kongyi and Xie Qi and asked curiously, "What are you two talking about?"
Fang Kongyi replied with a smile: "I'm giving my younger brother a coming-of-age present."
Yu Ze: "What did you give?"
Fang Kongyi: "Spring..."
Fang Kongyi had just said a word when Xie Qi suddenly covered his mouth with his hand like a frightened rabbit. He then explained, "Spring... spring pancakes! He brought me some spring pancakes sold at the foot of the mountain. They were so delicious that I accidentally ate them all and forgot to leave some for you, Master."
Yu Ze: "That's fine. If you like it, I'll take you down the mountain to buy some next time."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qi left Fang Kongyi behind and ran over. He grabbed Yu Ze's arm with a smile on his face, shaking it coquettishly while muttering, "Master, you're the best!"
Fang Kongyi stood there, watching Xie Qi and Yu Ze interact so intimately, and rolled his eyes.
Then he turned around and went back to his own demon mountain, no longer being a light bulb here.
