As the morning sun slowly rose, a golden crescent moon still hung over Heaven Dou City.
Inside Moon Pavilion.
Ye Qiu's figure appeared directly on the top floor.
At this time, there was still some time before the nobles would arrive.
After all, getting them to wake up early was not an easy task; most people came here just to add a layer of prestige, and Moon Pavilion's status in this Imperial City was not low.
"Qiu, you're here so early."
As soon as Ye Qiu appeared in the top floor hall, Tang Yuehua walked out of her room.
She seemed to have just woken up not long ago; her gray-blue hair was casually coiled at the back of her head with a hairpin, and she was wearing a cream-colored nightgown, revealing only a hint of her delicate collarbones and two slender, jade-like arms, which looked very proper.
"Mm."
Ye Qiu nodded lightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He walked over to Tang Yuehua, lowered his head slightly, and Tang Yuehua cooperatively hooked her arms around his neck.
A soft kiss.
"Good morning," Ye Qiu said softly, placing his hands on her waist and resting his forehead against hers.
"Mm, come in and sit down first!" Tang Yuehua smiled sweetly, returned the kiss, and habitually took his arm, leading Ye Qiu into the room.
Feeling the warmth emanating from her, Ye Qiu put his arm around her slender waist and sat down.
"Did you just wake up?"
"No, I've been up for a while. I'll just change my clothes soon."
Tang Yuehua sat down gracefully and began to brew tea.
Every movement was elegant and beautiful, exuding a noble aura.
"Qiu, is there still no news from Erlong Jie's side?" Tang Yuehua leaned on Ye Qiu's shoulder. She had already mentioned Liu Erlong's little schemes to Ye Qiu.
"Uh," Ye Qiu paused, a wry smile playing on his lips. He rubbed the soft, fragrant hair beside him and shook his head.
"Not yet, I suppose. Although I'm very cooperative, the main reason is that she can't handle it. Haha."
Ye Qiu chuckled twice.
It must be said that the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline's recovery ability is truly powerful. Even when Ye Qiu fought against a Spirit Douluo-level tigress, she didn't dare to continuously accept his moves.
After fighting for a long time, she always needed a lot of rest. Although Ye Qiu could heal her, the exhaustion was not just physical.
Floating in bliss for too long, one's spirit also can't take it. Everything must be done in moderation.
During this time, Ye Qiu, who was deeply engrossed, also discovered that the Sharingan's unconventional abilities could also be used to add some fun.
With just a glance, Liu Erlong was willing to wholeheartedly teach some knowledge that she found somewhat difficult.
"So that's it." Tang Yuehua's face also flushed, as if she recalled something, feeling a little trepidation.
Then, she seemed to sense something.
She slowly straightened her body, picked up the steaming tea in front of Ye Qiu, blew on it lightly.
Then handed it to Ye Qiu's mouth.
"Drink it quickly, Xue Ke is already here."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu's eyes once again flashed with surprise.
The soundproofing in every room of Moon Pavilion was extremely strong, so he couldn't confirm by sound. He simply opened his Sharingan and looked out.
Indeed, Xue Ke was already sitting on the sofa in the top floor hall, staring blankly at the staircase and the direction of Tang Yuehua's room door.
"Yuehua, what level has your cultivation reached exactly?" Ye Qiu couldn't help but look at her, puzzled.
"It's alright, much lower than Erlong Jie. But I don't have much combat power," Tang Yuehua blinked, chuckling, while still holding the warm tea in her hand.
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, not expecting Tang Yuehua to already be a Spirit Saint-level powerhouse.
Resolving the doubt in his heart, he slowly sipped from the rim of the teacup. Under Tang Yuehua's service, he finished the tea in a short while.
Tang Yuehua's red lips parted slightly as she wiped away the remaining tea from Ye Qiu's lips.
She then tidied his clothes for him.
"Alright, go!"
"Mm!" Ye Qiu nodded lightly, and, not standing on ceremony, teased her for a bit.
…
Outside the room, Xue Ke had already arrived.
The smile on her face never stopped. She sat gracefully, her bright eyes eagerly anticipating Ye Qiu's arrival.
Click!
As soon as the sound of the door opening echoed, a flash of azure hair made her quickly stand up.
"Ye Qiu~"
As Ye Qiu closed the door and turned around, he was met with Xue Ke's joyful and excited face.
Her white, ear-length short hair, exquisite and charming features lightly powdered, and a pure white long dress enveloped her slender body. Her hands were clasped together, seeming a little nervous.
"Xue Ke. Good morning!" Ye Qiu greeted with a smile.
"Mm, good morning!" Xue Ke's cheeks were flushed, partly from shyness, partly from excitement.
"Ye Qiu, where are we going today?"
"Hmm, how about we go to a place I stayed when I was little?"
Ye Qiu pondered for a moment, then said with a faint smile.
Although he had marked many locations, those places seemed too prosperous and had too many watchful eyes. Plus, he hadn't been back to see them in a long time.
"Okay, okay! I'll go anywhere with you!" Xue Ke's smile grew even brighter, overjoyed.
How could she not want to go to the place where Ye Qiu lived in his childhood?!
"Mm! Then let's go," Ye Qiu slowly extended his hand, holding it out to Xue Ke.
Xue Ke paused, blinked her eyes, and smiled foolishly, gently placing her small hand on his.
Being held in Ye Qiu's hand, the longed-for warmth made her mind feel a little hazy.
Feeling dizzy, she was about to pull Ye Qiu downstairs.
"Don't rush."
Ye Qiu's heart skipped a beat. If they went down like this and were seen, what would happen? He'd have to talk his mouth raw explaining.
He chuckled and pulled her back.
"Ah?! We…" Xue Ke suddenly looked up, meeting Ye Qiu's gaze, her eyes darting nervously, and her eyelids turned red.
"I'll take you with my Spirit Ability!" Ye Qiu whispered, his eyes already glowing with an eerie, blood-red light.
"Mm."
Xue Ke took one look and was somewhat mesmerized, nodding blankly.
As the Eternal Kaleidoscope Sharingan rotated and space twisted, their figures vanished from the top floor of Moon Pavilion.
…
Bi You Village, outside the village, consisted of square fields. The sun at this time was not scorching, and the villagers had risen early to begin their labor.
Not far from the village entrance, in a dense patch of grass, Ye Qiu and Xue Ke's figures appeared out of thin air.
"Ye Qiu, how amazing…"
Xue Ke hugged Ye Qiu's arm, looking left and right in astonishment.
Her eyes were filled with wonder. She hadn't expected to arrive so close to the Empire's border in such a short time.
"Alright, let's go," Ye Qiu said, looking at everything at the village entrance with a sense of nostalgia.
He took Xue Ke's hand and walked into the village.
Xue Ke followed closely, observing the village Ye Qiu had come from. Everything seemed orderly… but the clothing and attire of the people here looked very different from the commoners she had seen.
It wasn't just Xue Ke who was puzzled.
I wish everyone a pleasant life!
