As soon as he said it, Jiang Mian regretted it.

She quickly looked away, down at the ground, wishing she could dig a hole and hide herself.

Ye Chenyang looked at her reddened ears, and the corners of his mouth curled up, as if he was trying hard to suppress his laughter.

"Mianmian, aren't we already together?"

This was the first time Jiang Mian had said something so direct since he was officially appointed to his position.

Her affection was never expressed in words, but rather gradually revealed through her actions.

From hugs to kisses, and then to not resisting sharing a bed, and even being willing to let herself touch that area.

Ye Chenyang was well aware that Jiang Mian liked to tease him.

What else can we do?

Of course, it's about enjoying yourself!

Since Jiang Mian likes to have fun, he'll play along.

Those slightly embarrassed reactions were indeed genuine.

After all, it was his first time talking to someone, so it naturally wasn't going to be very good.

That being said, since Jiang Mian said so, it means he agreed to the first option: to negotiate honestly.

However, now is not the time to take action; we need some time to buffer.

Now, he just wants to enjoy this moment of reunion.

"Hmph! Stop laughing!"

Jiang Mian shook off his hand, turned her back, and looked angry and embarrassed, not wanting to talk to him.

Ye Chenyang knew she wasn't really angry, otherwise she would have already shown her true colors.

Is that feigned anger look kind of cute?

"Strange, weren't we supposed to be talking about serious business? How did I end up like this again?"

Jiang Mian rubbed his face, looked up at the sky and reflected on himself, when suddenly he felt someone press close behind him.

Warm breath fell beside my ear.

"Wait, what's he going to do?"

Before she could react, a soft touch gently enveloped her earlobe, sending a shiver through her body.

"!"

Jiang Mian's mind went completely blank.

At the same time, gray scales uncontrollably appeared on her body.

In the blink of an eye, the scales turned a dazzling crimson, the temperature soared, and even distorted the surrounding air.

"laugh!"

Ye Chenyang's clothes were clearly unable to withstand the high temperature.

The fabric in front of him turned to ashes in an instant, leaving his chest wide open.

Fortunately, his body was covered with a golden light the moment he came into contact with the flames, thus avoiding burns.

"what!"

Jiang Mian reacted quickly and suppressed the raging fire element.

The scales returned to their original gray color and gradually faded away.

Fortunately, the clothes he was wearing were made of shadow power, so they had little effect.

She rubbed her burning earlobes and looked at Ye Chenyang, who was forced to take off his shirt, her eyes filled with shock, as if to say, "What are you doing?"

The two stared at each other for two and a half seconds.

In the end, Jiang Mian stepped forward first, gently patted his chest, and said in a muffled voice:

"Brother Ye, what's gotten into you? You've gone astray in just a few days!"

Ye Chenyang casually grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms, and his expression was stern:

"Indeed, after all, someone really enjoys teasing others. Spending so much time together, I've picked up a few of their tricks."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian guiltily looked away.

"broken!"

How could she not know that Ye Chenyang was implying something?

Could it be that he's been spending these past few days inside, and with nothing to do, he's been reminiscing about the details of how he and his partner got along?

It seems like I've messed things up with myself?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ye Chenyang bent down and picked Jiang Mian up in his arms, comforting her:

"Alright, don't worry about your identity, everything will be fine. You rest for a bit, I'll get ready, okay?"

Jiang Mian nodded.

Back in the master bedroom, after being "washed" by Ye Chenyang's purification skill, she obediently crawled into bed.

It seems like I've forgotten something?

Never mind, what's done is done, let's go to sleep.

at the same time.

Yin Mengyao, who was in the [world], looked up at the sky and murmured:

"Strange, does it take this long to travel?"

……

Let's rewind to when Ye Chenyang had just left the tower.

You Hui gripped an enormous sword in one hand, watching the woman in black robes warily in the distance.

Unlike before, his right hand, which held the sword, was severed at the root and replaced by an arm made of transparent crystals.

For someone at his current level, it's just a minor injury and won't affect his mobility.

However, recovery will take some time, and this arm is actually more suitable for combat.

Upon reaching the eighth rank, what he obtained was no longer a blank crystal, but rather a unique characteristic that truly belonged to him—the ability to ward off evil.

This characteristic not only integrates all his previous abilities, but also maximizes the restraint of [Radiance] against calamity.

If the target is right, in terms of explosive power alone, it might even slightly surpass the [Void Realm Walker].

Coincidentally, the Nightmare path is the second one in the counter list.

"It's dawn..."

【The Fragrance of Sinking】gazing at the sky "stained white" by Youhui's power, muttered to herself.

She has always hated light.

Those humans who follow the "glorious" path are even more detestable.

That You Hui is clearly only Sequence 14.

However, thanks to [Radiance]'s ability to counter her and its unpredictable, guaranteed-hit attacks, she was forced to expend a great deal of energy to defend against them.

Simply put, they are incompatible and have to compete in terms of damage output.

【The Fragrance of Depravity】As the name suggests, the core of its power lies in its eerie aroma and its insidious mental manipulation.

However, in the current situation, the pace of the battle is too fast, and the damage output is not keeping up.

However, You Hui had only just broken through to the early stage of the eighth rank and couldn't hurt her yet. Instead, You Hui lost an arm first.

If the fight continues, she will definitely win.

"Ya, come back first."

Suddenly, the voice of the River of Oblivion echoed deep within her consciousness.

Ya was a name that Wangchuan gave her for convenience.

Wangchuan also chose the surname "Hua" (meaning "flower") based on the characteristics of his own abilities.

This is indeed much more convenient.

She looked up and saw several streaks of light of different colors approaching her from afar; without exception, they were all high-level.

Sensing her intention, You Hui raised his greatsword, and a golden ripple quietly spread out.

Space confinement!

However, she merely snorted coldly, her body instantly becoming ethereal as she entered the gate opened by the River of Oblivion and returned to the other side.

At her level, switching freely between physical and spiritual forms is as easy as breathing.

Although we can still fight, we should still follow the Lord's orders.

Seeing that he couldn't keep her, You Hui sighed softly and looked at the ruins at his feet.

A huge sword mark ran through the entire training camp.

The small hill behind it was also leveled by the aftershocks of the battle, turning into a large, exposed crater.

A faint, lingering fragrance still lingered in the air.

In a short period of time, the training camp has been attacked twice and it may be unable to continue.

There were already radical factions within the upper echelons who had reservations about the cultivation plan.

They believed that gathering these seeds together was too risky, as they could easily be wiped out in one fell swoop.

Some have called for a thorough investigation into the high-ranking officials who proposed the training program, suspecting that there may be spies from the Boundless Gate among them.

It looks like things are about to get messy.

As You Hui released his grip, the giant sword instantly split into seven, transforming back into flying swords that hovered around him.

The red sword in front of him shot out and quickly circled the training camp ruins.

Finally, it stopped in front of an inconspicuous clump of trees, and with a gentle stroke, revealed a desolate scene behind it.

Several instructors in dark green uniforms stood guard beside the unconscious trainee, watching the gap warily.

"Who?"

Zhong Yue was the first to step forward.

When he recognized the person as You Hui, he visibly relaxed and bowed slightly.

"Minister You."

Several high-level Awakened Ones were already standing in the sky outside.

This matter is finally over.

You Hui nodded and began giving instructions: those who needed to be sent to the hospital should be sent there, and those who needed to be packed up should be packed up.

Among the students lying on the ground, Shen Qiuyu quietly opened her eyes a crack, but quickly closed them again.

Thanks to the "transformation" which enhanced her soul's resilience, she was actually unconscious for only a short time.

Shen Qiuyu understood that not only had she failed to help, but she had also become a burden, and more importantly...

"Xu Xiaoan, is he dead?"

How was she supposed to explain this to Jiang Mian?
