The next morning, Shen Yunhao pushed open the door and looked at the sunrise over the mountains.
The rising sun pierced through the thin mist and fell upon the branches sprouting new buds.
Everything is exuding the scent of spring.
It was a warm and refreshing feeling that was captivating.
"Brother Yunhao, so early?"
At this moment, Ning Yuyao, carrying a breakfast tray, walked in from the corridor and asked in surprise, "Why didn't you rest a little longer?"
"It's all because of you!"
Shen Yunhao raised an eyebrow and glared at her.
"I?"
The little girl was a bit confused, blinking her big eyes and standing there blankly.
I was very careful when I practiced swordsmanship this morning, could I have disturbed him?
Unexpectedly, Shen Yunhao suddenly raised his hand and gently tapped her delicate nose: "Do you get up so early every day to practice your sword? Are you trying to drive your husband crazy?"
"..."
Ning Yuyao didn't know what Shen Yunhao meant by "curl," but she instinctively felt shy and happy at her husband's intimate gesture.
"Then... I'll... stay with my husband and rest a little longer tomorrow?"
"..."
Shen Yunhao chuckled and shook his head, no longer bothering to tease this easily amused girl. He took the plate from her and went into the house, saying, "Eat, eat. You didn't eat anything yesterday..."
It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it, because once she did, Ning Yuyao couldn't help but blush and bite her lip as she followed them inside.
"Yao'er..."
"Um?"
"Take me with you when you practice swordsmanship from now on!"
"..."
Seeing the girl's stunned expression once again, Shen Yunhao raised his hands and clasped his hands in a respectful gesture: "I have long admired Fairy Ning's name, and I have come here to seek her guidance. I hope that you will be generous in your teachings, and I will be eternally grateful!"
"Pfft!"
Ning Yuyao was finally amused by Shen Yunhao's serious expression. She covered her mouth, looked at him, and nodded.
"Um……"
"Really... A smile looks so much better, why do you always have your head down... Where did the spirit you had when you argued with me yesterday go?"
Shen Yunhao couldn't help but pinch her fair little face, feeling that Ning Yuyao seemed to be getting closer and closer to him...
Just like the icy fairy from the heavens who finally descended to the mortal world, bringing the two of them closer and closer.
Ning Yuyao had always been very attached to him, especially when they first returned to Lin Yuan City. She was almost completely obedient to him, as if she was afraid he would run away...
However, this does not mean that there are no barriers or obstacles between the two.
On the contrary, Ning Yuyao's sincere yet cautious emotions put Shen Yunhao under immense pressure.
He even considered saying some incoherent things to Sister Li'er...
Now, he can finally feel it.
The girl in front of him had become an inseparable part of his life.
She no longer needed to carefully maintain this relationship that she had worked so hard to build.
Because true feelings... they won't break!
Perhaps... that love spell really works...
"snort!"
The little girl blushed and opened her mouth to bite him, but Shen Yunhao laughed and dodged away.
"So you've started learning how to make bubble tea too..."
"milk tea?"
"..." Shen Yunhao's expression froze for a moment, he coughed twice, and quickly changed the subject.
After finishing breakfast, Shen Yunhao pulled Ning Yuyao out the door.
"After being in seclusion for so long, have you come to accompany your husband for a walk?"
Of course, Shen Yunhao didn't intend to show off in front of the outer disciples. He just thought the scenery of Half Moon Manor was nice and wanted to stroll around with his wife.
If we're talking about showing off, back a few days ago when those disciples came to Half Moon Manor and treated Shen Yunhao like he was a treasure, he was already too embarrassed to leave the house...
Moreover, the Moon Palace is full of female disciples, so who could he show off to?
Being held by the hand in public didn't bother Ning Yuyao at all. She just followed behind Shen Yunhao with a smile, chatting with him casually.
Without that restraint, there was a lot more naturalness.
Just like... a couple truly in love, radiating a youthful and vibrant energy.
It's hard to believe that these two are actually a real couple!
Not long after, a woman in a long black dress descended from the sky and started chatting with Ning Yuyao.
After the explanation, Shen Yunhao learned that this person was actually a steward of the Lengyou Hall of Guanghan Palace, and also the manager of this Half Moon Manor, named Yin Han.
Since he is a steward, that means he must be at least at the Void Soul Realm level.
Shen Yunhao stayed here for more than ten days, and this Master Yin didn't show his face even once. The day after Ning Yuyao came here after she finished her seclusion, she eagerly ran out...
It can only be said that even if Shen Yunhao became the son-in-law of Qingyou Palace, in the eyes of these middle and upper-level officials, he was nothing more than an insignificant little brat.
"Yao'er..."
Finally, Yin Han looked at Ning Yuyao, then at Shen Yunhao, but ultimately didn't say anything.
"It's alright, you guys keep looking around, I have to go now..."
After saying goodbye, Yin Han turned and flew away. Only then did Shen Yunhao ask curiously, "Yao'er, are you very familiar with this Master Yin?"
Ning Yuyao stared in the direction the manor lord had left, then shook her head after a long while.
"I've met you a few times before, back at Huayin Palace..."
Huayin Palace...
Shen Yunhao frowned, but then he saw Ning Yuyao suddenly fall silent when she mentioned Huayin Palace, and her originally bright eyes became somewhat dark and unfathomable.
He didn't notice the hidden murderous intent in the girl's eyes. He pulled her soft little hand back and said softly, "Yao'er, you've never told me about what happened when you were cultivating at Huayin Palace. Tell me about it another day."
"Um……"
Ning Yuyao nodded, then suddenly looked up at him after a moment: "Brother Yunhao..."
"Um?"
"Yao'er is not strong enough yet. When Yao'er has the same cultivation as Master, I will make everyone who bullies Brother Yunhao pay the price!"
"..."
Seeing the unwavering determination that had quietly taken root in the girl's eyes, Shen Yunhao hesitated for a long time before offering no words of comfort. He simply chuckled and said, "Alright... if we do it again, I'll definitely cling to my wife's coattails!"
Ning Yuyao blinked, and after a moment, she ran away with a dazed look in her eyes.
"Naughty Brother Yunhao...didn't you hug me enough last night?"
Shen Yunhao was stunned for a long time before realizing that he had been teased. He immediately pretended to chase after him, saying, "Hey! My wife, don't go. Let your husband hug you one more time!"
...
Nestled among the mountains of the Tianshan Mountains, there is a small city spanning several dozen miles, much like the Half Moon Manor, which receives guests and travelers from afar. It is called Youhan City.
Although Youhan City is not large, it has everything you need: inns, taverns, and even the renowned Tianbao Pavilion, which has branches here to cater to the disciples of Guanghan Palace.
However, there are basically no ordinary people in Youhan City; ninety percent of them are cultivators who have come from the south and north.
