Zhu Yuanqing was dazed when he went to bed.
The danger at that moment seemed like an illusion. When he wanted to look again, those eyes were clearly calm, with only obvious concern.
But the feeling of being on edge at that time did not seem fake. Zhu Yuanqing could not understand it for a moment until the night pearl was covered and Jing Yuan lay down beside him, and then he came to his senses.
The bed looked large enough for two adults to lie down, but they were very close to each other, with their shoulders less than a foot apart.
Jing Yuan had just formed his elixir and was not yet able to control his aura well. Lying next to him, his presence was clearly visible.
Zhu Yuanqing had eliminated many Jindan cultivators in the past, and the fighting along the way made it difficult for him to calm down. The empty spiritual energy inside could not provide him with enough confidence. He finally stopped seeing Jing Yuan as a little disciple who was not even as tall as his waist, but as a very dangerous adult male.
So much so that when Jing Yuan stretched out his hand, he subconsciously tensed his body.
The hand gently pulled the cup on Zhu Yuanqing's body and patted it soothingly. Jing Yuan said in a gentle voice: "Master, I'm a little nervous."
Um?
Zhu Yuanqing tilted his head and turned his face to the side, seeing Jing Yuan's tense jawline and his hands clutching the quilt.
Zhu Yuanqing was speechless, and all his emotions disappeared at once.
He put his arm around Jing Yuan's shoulders and brought him towards him. He stretched out his hand under the quilt and covered Jing Yuan's hand with it, while his other hand covered his eyes: "Don't be nervous, go to sleep."
The protruding Adam's apple rolled up and down, Jing Yuan turned his palm over, and pressed his palm against Zhu Yuanqing's, and said in a hoarse voice: "Hmm..."
The inner room is filled with curling smoke and sleep-inducing incense. The night is quiet and those who should be asleep open their eyes.
The fluffy hair touched his neck, and the warm breath was only a finger away. Zhu Yuanqing closed his eyes and slept peacefully.
Jing Yuan's eyes softened. He turned sideways, put his arms around the person's waist, and lowered the temperature in the room a little.
As expected, the sleeping master frowned his beautiful eyebrows and couldn't help but shrink into the quilt.
Jing Yuan maliciously pulled the quilt away from Zhu Yuanqing, making him feel cold but with nowhere to go, while at the same time moving his body closer.
It was cold behind him, and a huge heat source was not far away. Zhu Yuanqing instinctively shrank towards the heat source, hugged Jing Yuan's waist and rubbed his body against his strong chest.
So comfortable...
His frown relaxed, Zhu Yuanqing moved closer, one leg weaving between the other, and fell into a deep dream.
Jing Yuan watched with delight as his master arched his body towards him, deliberately relaxing his muscles to make the embrace more comfortable.
The fair and tender face rubbed against his chest, like a soft little animal, making Jing Yuan's heart melt into a pool of water, and he quickly hugged her tighter.
Perhaps Master himself doesn’t know that he is not very well-behaved when he falls asleep.
When Jingyuan was a child, he was held like a giant object by his master more than once, and would be held for the entire night.
He got up earlier than his master every day. In the early morning, he had to be extremely careful to lift Zhu Yuanqing's arms and stuff the quilt into his arms before he could get out of bed smoothly.
This look is very different from Zhu Yuanqing's cold and aloof appearance. In the past, Jing Yuan thought that his master was an adult who needed care, but now Jing Yuan thinks he is so cute.
He stared at the back of Zhu Yuanqing's black head, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and told himself to be self-disciplined and polite.
And the next second, the slender leg was embedded in the middle, and the warm body moved forward again, sticking together without any gap.
Jing Yuan's breathing stopped suddenly, darkness appeared in his eyes, and he chanted the Heart Purification Mantra over and over again.
His body was too tense, and the muscles under Zhu Yuanqing's face were stiff, as if he was hugging an iron rod, making him uncomfortable.
So he moved his legs, supported himself slightly, and leaned back, trying to get away from this hard object.
Jing Yuan was rubbed so hard that he was furious. He was also rubbed in that place and he almost couldn't help but pull the person into his arms.
Seeing that the person wanted to run, he relaxed his body while gasping for breath, tightened his hands on the person's back, and stuffed the person into his arms.
After a while, Jing Yuan looked into the distance at the sky which was already turning pale, took out a pill to calm the mind and reduce internal heat, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Some people couldn't close their eyes that night, but others slept exceptionally well.
Zhu Yuanqing woke up feeling refreshed. Although he had some bizarre dreams, including one in which he was trapped in an ice cellar and hugged a giant bear to keep warm, he felt very relaxed when he woke up.
When I sat up, the person next to me had already left and even the quilt was cold.
After sighing at the diligence of his disciples, Zhu Yuanqing prepared to get out of bed, but just as he sat down beside the bed, the door was pushed open.
The tall figure came towards the sunlight, the dark tights outlining his strong and muscular arms, and his sharp facial features still carried the fierce aura that lingered after morning training.
However, the moment he saw the person on the bed, those dangerous emotions completely disappeared and became harmless.
It is daytime now, Zhu Yuanqing is very sober. After watching the whole process of Jing Yuan's face changing, he finally confirmed that last night was not an illusion.
My disciples have indeed grown up, not only in age and body, but also in mind.
He was lost in thought and didn't notice that the collar, which had been lingering on him all night, was a little open, revealing his entire collarbone and a small piece of skin underneath.
Zhu Yuanqing rarely interacted with people in close proximity, so he changed his clothes as if no one was around. When he looked up, he found that Jing Yuan had disappeared without a trace.
"Xiao Jing?"
Pushing the door open, Jing Yuan was standing at the door holding a sword, looking at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking, with a serious expression.
Seeing him coming, Jing Yuan quickly put away his sword and glanced at his tightly closed collar casually: "Master, breakfast is ready."
Half a month passed, and except for visiting Taoist Lingxiao and bringing back a storage ring of honey water, Zhu Yuanqing basically stayed in Xiaoyao Peak.
He and Jing Yuan hadn't seen each other for a long time, and he spent a lot of time giving instructions. He suddenly realized that Jing Yuan's aptitude and understanding were better than he thought. He even became interested after a long time and lowered his cultivation to the Golden Core level to compete with him several times.
His progress was visible to the naked eye. At first, he could not last more than a hundred moves against Zhu Yuanqing, but later he became more and more powerful, and occasionally he could use new moves unexpectedly.
But the easy days did not last long. Nian Yizhi came out of retreat, and Xuanyuan Sect and other sects sent a large number of disciples to fight demons, officially breaking off relations with the evil sect.
Zhu Yuanqing traveled the same way as Taoist Nian Yi, and at the suggestion of Taoist Lingxiao, they also brought Jing Yuan along.
Their group included one Spirit Transformation and one Nascent Soul, and in addition to Jing Yuan, there were two Golden Core elders who secretly protected the largest group of disciples.
Before leaving the sect, Yun Xin prepared a lot of pills for Zhu Yuanqing, and even Wuxiang Feng took out several magic weapons, which showed how much he valued this trip.
