"he······"
"So, my little beauty misses me this much?" A roguish voice echoed from the void.
Dressed in a purple robe, Si Yu landed in the courtyard. Her face was radiant, her eyes sparkling like stars, and a wild, unrestrained smile played on her lips. She looked dashing and otherworldly.
Ji Jiuying glared at him, inwardly cursing him for being a show-off.
When Si Yu saw Ji Jiuying, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. "It's been a few months, and the little beauty is even more beautiful than before."
"Si Yu, what have you thought about repaying me with your body?"
Ji Jiuying and Hei Xiangling stared at the two in surprise, instantly understanding why Bai Lisha had said she was Si Yu's still uncertain fiancée—it turned out to be that uncertain...
"Xiaobai, as a girl, can't you be a little more reserved? How can you keep asking someone to give themselves to you?"
Si Yu advised him in a tone befitting an elder.
"I only do this with you."
Shirai Sa winked at him.
"Xiao Bai, if you don't go back to Yaochi Palace soon, things will be in chaos," Si Yu reminded her.
Bai Lisha then remembered that today was the day her master emerged from seclusion, and also her master's birthday. She panicked and said, "Sister Xiangling, Xiao Jiu, I have to go back first. I'll come to see you again when I have time."
Si Yu shook her head helplessly. Would the White Spirit God Venerable be so angry that his cultivation would reverse if he knew that his most beloved disciple had forgotten his birthday?

As soon as I returned to my room, Uncle Sun said that someone from the palace had come.
Before Ji Jiuying even reached the front hall, she heard a familiar voice.
"Put them down gently, put them down gently."
"Slow down, slow down."
"Put the treasure here, and the elixir over there."
Jun Lintian directed a group of people to carry in box after box of things, and a large number of people watched from the outside of the Princess's mansion.
When he saw Ji Jiuying, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. Little Jiuying was still so beautiful and charming, a sight to behold.
"Little Jiu Jiu, come and see! These are all gifts from my father, the Emperor." Jun Lintian pointed to the boxes that were almost filling the entire front hall, and more were being carried in from outside.
Thirty boxes of items were displayed in the front hall. Ji Jiuying's eyes flickered slightly. Helping Jialan repel the Western Jin and gain ten cities, was it really necessary to reward them with so many things? And it was a perfectly legitimate reward.
She wouldn't believe that the Cangyue Emperor didn't have ulterior motives. The news of the twin flowers on her had already spread throughout the Cangming Continent. Ji Jiuying's gaze fell on Jun Lintian, and her expression changed slightly.
Seeing that Ji Jiuying didn't speak, Jun Lintian thought she was unhappy. "Little Jiuying, don't you like these rewards?"
Ji Jiuying forced a smile. "No."
"That's good. By the way, Father will be hosting a banquet in the palace tomorrow, and he sent me to inform you."
A banquet? Ji Jiuying frowned slightly. Could it be a trap?
The look in her eyes caught Jun Lintian's eye, and his clear eyes flickered slightly. "Little Jiu Jiu, is it inconvenient?"
"No."
"That's good."
After seeing Jun Lintian off, Ji Jiuying put all the gifts bestowed by the emperor into her spatial storage.
After returning to the room, he slipped into the spatial dimension.
By this time, Ling Xiao's injuries had almost fully recovered!
Little Phoenix was still absorbing the Sacred Heart Stone, and Xuanming silently stayed by her side.
Glancing at the Xuan Yin Stone to the side, Ji Jiuying's expression shifted slightly. She thought, "I'll make a weapon when my second uncle comes back."
Ji Jiuying sat on the couch, remembering how she had no strength to resist in Yuezhu's hands, and couldn't help but close her eyes.
She had never been so eager to improve her strength as she was at this moment.
Close your eyes and focus your mind.
The spiritual energy in the space visibly surged towards Ji Jiuying.
I don't know how much time has passed.
The long-dormant fifth level of the Divine Control Technique finally showed signs of loosening, and Ji Jiuying did not stop, continuing to break through to the fifth level.
The Art of Pupil
Purple Eyes: Can create dreams and illusions, trapping enemies within them and killing them.
This kind of ability requires extremely high mental and spiritual power; otherwise, it is easy for enemies to discover it.
Of course, those with purple eyes can also see through all illusions and dreams, provided they have enough mental strength.
Red Eyes: Can control people with mental power and can tame and control various spirit beasts.
It also requires extremely high mental strength and control. If one's mental strength is insufficient to use eye techniques, and one is backfired, it may cause damage to the soul, making one an idiot, or even leading to death.
The evil fire looked at Ji Jiuying with satisfaction. It hadn't expected that its current master would be even more talented than its previous master. In less than half a year, she had mastered the Divine Control Technique to the fifth level.
The faster she cultivates, the greater the benefit to it. Thinking of this, the evil fire found a comfortable place and calmed down to cultivate the spiritual energy that coexisted with Ji Jiuying.
The space returned to its usual tranquility.
Fifteen minutes later.
Not far away, a little girl of about seven or eight years old quietly watched Ji Jiuying. Her orange eyes were watery, and there was a red phoenix tail flower between her eyebrows. Two fluffy fishtail braids were draped from behind her ears to her chest. She wore an orange dress that was short in the front and long in the back, like a little princess in a palace.
To her right is a turtle that looks a bit silly.
Xuanming: You're the turtle, your whole family are turtles!
To her left was a boy who was slightly older than her.
Suddenly, she tilted her head to the left, looking incredibly cute, and her voice was as sweet as spring water, "Little Lingxiao, why isn't Mother awake yet?"
Little Phoenix couldn't wait to show her mother what she looked like in human form.
Ling Xiao was charmed by her appearance, and only came to his senses when he heard what she said. He quickly comforted her, "Wait a little longer, it should be soon."
Actually, he didn't know when Ji Jiuying would wake up, but he couldn't bear to make Xiao Huang'er unhappy.

Wen Mansion.
"Master, Madam, Young Master, Second Miss, Princess Anping has been in seclusion for a day and a night, and even the palace banquet specially arranged for her by the Emperor today has been canceled," the servant said respectfully.
"Alright, you can go now." Wen Yan waved his hand.
"Father, Mother, we'll have to invite Xiao Jiu to our house another day," Wen Longting said regretfully.
Wen Yan glanced at his wife beside him, and Zhao Feiyan smiled and said, "Alright then!"
They hadn't had a chance to properly thank her since their last parting, and they felt even more obligated to thank her for taking care of Ting'er at the academy. However, after two days of waiting, they still couldn't find her and had to give up.
Zhao Feiyan's gaze fell on Wen Chuyu. "Yu'er, you're not young anymore. Since you recovered, the Wen family's door has been worn down by matchmakers. Do you have a girl you like now?"
Wen Chuyu's icy blue eyes flickered slightly, and the image of the person she liked—a peerless figure—appeared in her mind.
He thought of the unfathomable man on Dragon Head Mountain and his words, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
