Ji Jiuying's hands trembled slightly as she grilled the meat. This old man!
“Ah Yue…”
"Jiu'er, leave this matter to me," Gong Mingyue said, seeing the inner turmoil in her heart.
Ji Jiuying looked up in surprise, "A-Yue, you have a way?"
"Uh-huh."
Thinking of something, Ji Jiuying frowned slightly. "What method? Will it affect you?"
"No."
Ji Jiuying narrowed her eyes and stared at him, not missing a single emotional fluctuation in his eyes.
At that moment, a series of fragmented sounds reached their ears.
Gong Mingyue's face darkened. What were these two third wheels doing here?
"Mother~"
An orange and a black figure appeared in their line of sight, and Ji Jiuying looked at Gong Mingyue with a slightly apologetic expression.
I promised to bake it only for him...
"You brat, what smells so good?"
Hei Xiangling's eyes lit up; food was her favorite thing.
"Mother~ You didn't even invite Little Phoenix to eat roast meat." Little Phoenix snorted coldly, but her eyes were fixed on the roast meat on the stone slab.
Roasted meat? Hei Xiangling took a closer look and it really was. Come to think of it, she hadn't eaten roasted meat for over ten thousand years. Looking at the fragrant roasted meat on the stone slab, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"Come on, come on, there are still plenty more~"
Ji Jiuying chuckled twice and quickly took out a stool and bowls and chopsticks from her spatial storage.
The two sat down without ceremony and began to eat heartily, completely unaware that the man next to them had a face so black it looked like ink could drip from it.
"Mmm~ This is so delicious!"
Hei Xiangling had to admit that this was the best roasted meat she had ever eaten.
"Of course! My mother is a great cook. Little Phoenix loves her hot pot the most, and also her spirit wine." Little Phoenix praised as she ate.
Hei Xiangling's eyes lit up. She knew about spirit wine, but what was hot pot? But Xiao Huang'er made it sound so good, it must be delicious.
"Mother, quickly bring out your spirit wine."
Ji Jiuying reluctantly took out the spirit wine she had brewed from her spatial storage. "A-Yue, you should try some too."
Gong Mingyue's expression improved slightly, and Ji Jiuying's lips curled up slightly.
Soon the two of them were completely drunk.
“If you leave my mother, you won’t be able to eat good food or drink such delicious spiritual wine.”
Xiao Huang'er's orange eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at Hei Xiangling, who was lying face down on the table.
Hei Xiangling's eyes were glazed over. She, who never drank alcohol, had taken a liking to this spirit wine. When she heard Xiao Huang'er's name, she paused for a moment, realizing that it made sense.
"Then I... won't leave."
"Seriously."
"Um······"
Ji Jiuying sighed and placed the two of them into the space.
As dawn broke, Ji Jiuying nestled in Gong Mingyue's arms.
"Ah Yue, the sun is about to rise. This seems to be the first time we've watched the sunrise together."
"In our world, there is a legend."
Those who watch the sunrise together will never be separated.
Gong Mingyue held her hand tightly, resting his chin on the top of her head. The threads of affection between their wrists shone faintly.
His eyes gazed at the distant horizon, flickering with unreadable emotions. "Jiu'er, whether it's a legend or not, we will never be separated, life after life."
The red glow on the horizon grew increasingly pronounced, casting a rosy hue on Ji Jiuying's fair face.
"After enduring a long, dark night, the sunrise is the best reward. Today is a brand new day, and I wish time could stop at this moment."
Ji Jiuying enjoyed the morning sunlight, not thinking about anything. She had never felt so relaxed in all the time she had been in this world.
Gong Mingyue's eyes darkened, and he remained silent, simply holding her quietly.
The news that Star Academy possessed a divine artifact spread like wildfire across the Cangming Continent, exploding like thunder. Countless powerful individuals gathered towards Star Academy, surrounding its gates and making a great commotion.
"I never expected that there would be a divine artifact in this Star Academy."
"But no."
"Speaking of which, could it be that the princess of Cangyue Kingdom also obtained the divine weapon, the Blazing Sun Bow, here? I've heard that Princess Anping is the Dean's only disciple."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone thought that this was very likely the case. At this moment, a male voice rang out from the crowd.
"Stop spreading rumors. Princess Anping's divine weapon, the Blazing Sun Bow, was obtained in the far north."
"Hmph, words are no proof."
"Hehe, there were quite a few martial arts cultivators present at the time. That divine artifact, the Blazing Sun Bow, was lost by the city lord of the far north to Princess Anping in a bet."
“I can vouch for what he said; I was there at the time.”
"It doesn't matter where we get it, since Princess Anping has already made a contract with it. But the artifacts in the Star Academy are different. I've heard that the artifacts in the Star Academy are unclaimed..."
In an instant, all eyes in the crowd turned to the gates of Star Academy with intense greed.
At this point, those who were itching to make a move began to devise ways to break the formation.
Feng Luo and the others, hidden in the shadows, looked at these people with sarcasm. They were really overestimating themselves, but as long as the effect was achieved, that was enough.
"A bunch of useless trash, trying to break this divine formation? It's utterly laughable."
Suddenly, a clear, cold voice rang out in the void.
The crowd's expressions turned cold. Although they weren't top-tier experts, they were still quite strong. They wanted to see who dared to compare them to trash.
His eyes darted around, searching for the source of the sound.
A woman in a long white dress appeared out of thin air and came into view. She was extremely beautiful, with a delicate oval face lightly made up, eyebrows like willow leaves, and a pair of stunning phoenix eyes that shimmered with light. Every smile and frown of hers was captivating.
Her long, black hair moved without wind, and her temperament was pure and refined, like a fairy who had descended to earth, someone who could only be admired from afar and not touched.
Everyone stared in astonishment at this fairy-like woman. Just who was she?
Feng Luo's lips curled slightly. Finally, they've arrived!
"What a nice view······"
"What's so beautiful about her? She was the one who just called us useless!"
"It's okay, I don't mind."
"I can't even see through this woman's strength?"
Everyone stared at the woman before them, who was as beautiful as a fairy.
"Who is this woman?"
Everyone shook their heads. Logically speaking, with such stunning beauty and formidable strength, they shouldn't be unaware of her.
"Could they be from a hermit family?"
"Hmph, so what if they're a hermit family? How dare a filthy bitch call us trash." An old man sneered, glancing disdainfully in the direction of the woman in white.
Xin Yao's lips curled slightly into a gentle smile, causing a collective gasp as a large group of spiritual cultivators were captivated by her stunning beauty.
Her phoenix eyes fell on the old man who had just spoken, a cold killing intent flashing beneath them.
Bang! The old man was instantly forced to his knees by the pressure released by Xin Yao, unable to stand up.
