Inside the council hall, after everyone had left...
"Father, let me go! Maybe I can find a miraculous elixir that can extend lifespan!"
As Zhou Xingchen stood in the middle of the council hall, his father, Zhou Tianxiang, frowned, his face full of worry, and looked at his son with complicated eyes.
Zhou Xingchen wore a purple robe; he was tall and slender, with a straight back like a pine tree.
His face was handsome, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, his gaze deep and clear, as if holding a vast universe. Beneath his high, straight nose, his thin lips were slightly pursed, outlining a perfectly measured, resolute line.
He exudes an innate noble air, like a gentle and refined gentleman, inspiring respect in all who behold him.
The council hall was unusually empty and quiet at this moment, and Zhou Xingchen's voice echoed within it, filled with determination and expectation.
"Let me think about it. You can go now!"
Zhou Tianxiang waved his hand, clearly not wanting to agree to his son's request.
"father…"
Zhou Xingchen wanted to say something more, but after seeing his father's serious and resolute expression, he stopped himself from speaking.
Zhou Tianxiang looked exhausted, his brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes revealed deep worry and helplessness.
Zhou Xingchen bit her lip, her eyes filled with resentment, but in the end she still bowed to her father and slowly turned to leave.
Blue Star, Cloud Mist Pavilion of the Free and Unfettered Sect.
"Xiao Guang, what's going on with Jun Ye?"
The first thing Jiang Wanwan did upon returning to her sect was to take out the jade talisman and contact Xiao Guang.
"Jun Ye once sent over a thousand clones to infiltrate Blue Star, attempting to find an opportunity within Blue Star to prevent the revival of its spiritual energy. However, almost all of them were blocked by my Heavenly Net. That black cat was merely a fish that slipped through the net."
Xiao Guang's voice rang out, sounding like he was doing well lately, his tone much more relaxed.
"Are there any fish that slipped through the net?" Jiang Wanwan asked with some concern.
"Don't worry! I'm not the same person I was when I first woke up. Now I'm much stronger! Once you come to our Blue Star, you'll be under my control and won't be able to cause any trouble!"
Xiao Guang was full of confidence. He had recently received so many benefits from the Nine Heavens Continent that he had extra energy to reinforce the Heavenly Net.
Hearing this, Jiang Wanwan felt much relieved. Then she turned to Xiao Guang and discussed reinforcing the formation that had been set up to prevent the arrival of the alien guests on Blue Star, just in case.
After ending her call with Xiao Guang, Jiang Wanwan began working through the night to create array plates, using up almost all the Shadow Stones she had collected in the swamp of the Gasri Primitive Forest.
So, the next day, Jiang Wanwan pulled Lin Weiguo to start setting up arrays on a global scale to avoid accidentally harming their own people. She reported the locations of all the newly added arrays to the government departments.
Government agencies issued an international notice overnight, informing the public of the ban on travel to and from various places and urging them not to break the law.
After setting up the formation, he returned to the sect and went to the interdimensional trading room to find Yan Ziyan to learn about the interdimensional trading situation.
Inside the interdimensional trading room, staff were busy packing packages; the entire room was filled with packages ready to be sent.
Meanwhile, Yan Ziyan was confirming orders at the workbench, while discussing with several researchers in the system whether there were any additional items.
"Senior brother?"
Yan Ziyan looked up and saw Jiang Wanwan coming over. Her face, which had been slightly tired, instantly lit up, like a star that suddenly shone in the dark night.
His bright eyes were filled with irrepressible joy, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, making his whole person look more energetic.
"Wanwan, you're here! Did the formation go smoothly?"
Jiang Wanwan held Yan Ziyan's hand, nodding excitedly as she said, "We've set up formations at the locations Xiaoguang mentioned. If any strange guests arrive, they'll definitely not be able to leave alive."
Yan Ziyan was very happy to hear this, then greeted several researchers and pulled Jiang Wanwan outside to talk.
"Wanwan, have you missed me?" Yan Ziyan's face was full of joy, and his voice was filled with undisguised happiness. He gazed at Jiang Wanwan with deep affection, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Jiang Wanwan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded gently. Seeing this, Yan Ziyan smiled even more brightly.
The two teleported to the top of Dongshan Mountain, which was their secret base.
In the tranquil night, countless stars, like dazzling jewels, are set against the vast, boundless sky. Soft moonlight pours down like water, veiling the entire summit of Dongshan Mountain in a dreamlike, ethereal mist.
A gentle breeze wafted by, carrying the fragrance of wildflowers and the fresh scent of grass from afar. Among the grass, fireflies twinkled like stars on the ground.
The two lay on the lawn gazing at the starry sky, and Yan Ziyan talked about the development and future plans of the interdimensional trading mall.
As Jiang Wanwan listened, she unconsciously rested her head on Yan Ziyan's shoulder. Yan Ziyan was slightly taken aback, then quietly took her hand.
Jiang Wanwan naturally intertwined her fingers with Yan Ziyan's, looked up at the stars in the sky and said, "Senior brother, do you think it's possible that we can go to the Nine Heavens Continent that day and personally capture Jun Ye?"
Yan Ziyan rubbed Jiang Wanwan's rounded fingernail with his thumb and replied, "Maybe that day will come! But before that, we can cause him some trouble!"
"Oh, senior brother, do you have any good ideas?" Jiang Wanwan turned her head slightly to look at Yan Ziyan, her eyes filled with curiosity and expectation. Under the moonlight, her eyes looked even brighter and more captivating.
"It's a secret. I'll tell you later!"
Under the moonlight, seeing the beauty, Yan Ziyan couldn't resist and flipped over to pin Jiang Wanwan down.
Yan Ziyan's breathing instantly became rapid and hot. His eyes were so intense that they seemed to burn everything. He stared straight at Jiang Wanwan's eyes, which were slightly widened in surprise, with endless affection.
At that moment, her eyes seemed to sparkle with countless stars, captivating all who beheld them.
Jiang Wanwan's cheeks instantly flushed crimson like a ripe apple. Her hands instinctively pressed against Yan Ziyan's firm chest, wanting to push him away but seemingly powerless.
Her heart was pounding like a deer's, each beat clearly felt, intense and frantic.
Yan Ziyan slowly approached, their breaths mingling, warm and rapid.
Finally, his lips gently covered Jiang Wanwan's lips, at first cautiously, as if touching a fragile treasure, but gradually, this tenderness turned into passion. Their lips were pressed tightly together, their breaths mingling, as if trying to freeze this beautiful moment forever.
The moonlight shone on them, creating a beautiful picture. They were so engrossed in their passionate kiss that they forgot everything around them, as if the whole world consisted only of each other.
The next day, Jiang Wanwan entrusted a series of sect affairs to Yan Ziyan and Lin Weiguo to handle, and began to cultivate in seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Unexpectedly, during Jiang Wanwan's seclusion, the authorities contacted her and asked her to send people from the Xuanmen sect to a place called the Eternal Night Forest to find someone.
It is said that Jiang Shaojie disappeared there!
