The kiss was fierce and aggressive.
During the past months, Yun Shimo had been suppressing his restlessness. Hua Qiyue was surrounded by several handsome men, all of whom were completely devoted to her. Yun Shimo could tell that even Xuanji, that Taoist priest, was clearly trying to hide his affection for her.
Unlike the others, Xuanji was reserved and hadn’t shared his feelings to Hua Qiyue, nor did he make it obvious in their interactions.
Yun Shimo’s heart was burning with anxiety. Xuanji was indeed capable. He came from one of the three ancient clans, but not everyone from those clans learned the Spirit Summoning Art. He presumed that Xuanji hadn’t learned the Spirit Summoning Art, or, even if he did, that his will wasn’t as strong as the hare’s.
After all, the hare was more than 10,000 years old — its will was certainly much stronger than Xuanji’s. In terms of Spirit Summoning Art, he would never match the hare.
This time, Yun Shimo had guessed right.
“…Yun Shimo…you bastard…let go of me… now!” Under Yun Shimo’s fierce offensive, Hua Qiyue’s voice came out as a mumble.
He used all of his spiritual energy to pin Hua Qiyue against his chest, making her unable to move. It would take a lot of effort for her to even speak.
Something tender tugged at Yun Shimo’s heart, and he stopped kissing her. He was panting and noticed her flushed face and those lips which swelled from his kisses. Excitement and happiness welled up inside him.
Once, he thought he’d never see Hua Qiyue again.
Once, he thought they’d said their last goodbye. However…
Things were going unexpectedly smooth, so far.
“Qiyue, you have to believe me, or… you’ll regret it!”
Yun Shimo said in a low voice, his fingers running through her black hair. Then, he softly kissed her forehead, cheeks, and ears.
Hua Qiyue was shaking from head to toe. A feeling that she failed to describe was thrusting inside her body.
She closed her eyes and tried hard to remember those days when she lost Tianci. It was her darkest hour and she would to a rage at even hearing the words “Yun Shimo.”
Those words gradually turned into a long and hard thorn. She couldn’t pluck it from her heart no matter how hard she tried. Channeling those memories, her anger and anguish washed away the affection and passion brought on by Yun Shimo.
Now she was on her guard against him. No matter what he did, he couldn’t melt her pain away.
Noticing Hua Qiyue’s body growing rigid, and her eyes turning colder, Yun Shimo’s kisses ceased.
“Qiyue, I know I was rushing things. But… you’ll understand in the future.”
Yun Shimo loosened his grip and let her go.
Hua Qiyue considered beating him up; deep down in her heart, she didn’t think he would fight back.
“Oh, Shimo, you’re here.”
A surprised voice rang. Hua Qiyue paused and looked up. Indifferent, Hua Qiyue saw the tenderness in Princess Qianyang’s eyes that was only present around Yun Shimo.
Whenever Princess Qianyang looked at Yun Shimo, she was as tender as that.
Despite seeing how close the two were, Princess Qianyang’s face remained surprisingly blank.
However, Tianci didn’t notice anything wrong. He just wailed his way to Hua Qiyue and dived into her arms. “Dad! Mom! I’ve lost my Man-Hunting Insect!”
She gently held Tianci. “Don’t cry — we’ll find it soon.”
Tianci had been close to the Man-Hunting Insect, and he took it seriously. He considered the Man-Hunting Insect as a friend.
Hua Qiyue didn’t even bother looking at Yun Shimo, instead pulling Tianci toward her log cabin.
When they’d disappeared into the trees, Yun Shimo sighed. He took out the Man-Hunting Insect from his Space Ring. The small insect was still under the effect of the Sleeping Pill Yun Shimo had fed it.
“Send it back to Tianci,” Yun Shimo said as he handed the Man-Hunting Insect to Princess Qianyang.
Princess Qianyang gently took it and smiled. “I will. Husband, you’ve told her to leave here, haven’t you? …
“Yes, we’ve discussed it. When Tianci recovers, she’ll leave.” Yun Shimo flatly said. He lied to Princess Qianyang about discussing some matters with Hua Qiyue. She just wanted to drive Hua Qiyue and Tianci away.
Princess Qianyang’s hands were so soft that they seemed boneless. She held Yun Shimo’s hand. “Husband, you don’t look too well… go have some rest now.”
“Sure.” Yun Shimo replied. Of course, he must look like hell — Hua Qiyue had never rejected his advances like this before, and it was taking a toll.
In the past, no matter how angry Hua Qiyue got, Yun Shimo could always comfort her with a kiss. This time, though…
“Husband, shall I go to persuade her…?”
“No, it doesn’t suit your status. After all, her husband hates you. I’ve mentioned it once, and if you bring it up again, she might feel humiliated.”
She agreed not to bring up this matter in front of Hua Qiyue, then left to deliver the Man-Hunting Insect to Tianci.
Watching Princess Qianyang’s figure disappear, Yun Shimo looked down, a little annoyed.
“Come out,” he said quietly.

A shadow moved behind him without a sound.
“I didn’t expect the honorable Prince Nan to tell such a lie. It was really eye-opening for me!” Xuanji said.
When Prince Nan forced himself on Hua Qiyue, Xuanji had managed to reverse the hare’s Spirit Summoning Art. He’d arrived just as Hua Qiyue was released.
When Princess Qianyang approached, he’d hidden in the forest, waiting for his moment.
“Master Xuan, this is between me and Qiyue. You’d better stay out of it!” Yun Shimo’s expression was blank, but he was suppressing his shock that this man had overcome the Sun Moon Deity. He was even more capable than anticipated.
“Her business is my business!” Deep down in Xuanji’s heart, an inexplicable rage welled up. He didn’t like meddling in the business of others, but this time was different. He raised a hand, anima energy already condensed in his palm, and a gale split the air with a shriek of wind.
Xuanji striking first was yet another surprise, and Yun Shimo didn’t see it coming. Though he hadn’t known the priest for long, he’d judged him to be a prudent man.
“Sky-domineering Fist!” Yun Shimo took Xuanji’s strike with his own palm. The two met, then each quickly took five steps back.
The two were neck and neck in strength. However, today, Xuanji seemed to have gone mad, attacking Yun Shimo as if his life had depended on it.
Xuanji was usually gentle and indifferent. Now, like a lunatic, he had struck a dozen times, his black hair flying wildly.
“Xuanji! Are you mad? This is between her and me!”
“I already said… her business is my business!” Xuanji answered, echoing his previous response.
“Asura World!” Xuanji shouted. Then, all the light in the world seemed to condense in his palm. The sky darkened until Yun Shimo could not even see the surrounding trees.
This must be the Xuan family’s most powerful technique! Yun Shimo could feel all the nearby anima energy flying into Xuanji’s palm.
Xuanji had made all the anima energy and light of heaven and earth his weapon. There was no question that the priest was taking this fight seriously.
“Yun Shimo, I’ll end you so you can never make trouble for Qiyue again!” Xuanji’s voice was bone-chilling.
Yun Shimo wanted to scream and laugh at the same time. “Xuanji, Qiyue and I have been in a relationship. There is nothing between you two!”
Xuanji didn’t bother to say anything more. The light ball in his palm grew increasingly bigger.
Seeing Xuanji’s power grow, Yun Shimo knew it was time to release his forbidden art. “Holy God Array Interior!” It resembled that of Dragon in Sleep, the Crystal Array Interior he had set. Even a Qi Artist at medium level of Holy God couldn’t have cracked it.
Xuanji had pushed forward the light ball in his palm, looking coldly at Yun Shimo, who was under the protection of the array interior.
How clever — he knows he can’t possibly dodge this kind of lethal technique, so he conjured an array interior… calmly, Xuanji watched the light ball bounce against Yun Shimo’s array interior. As soon as it touched, Xuanji was sent flying several meters backward.
A loud clap of thunder shook the entire world, making the nearby animals flee, thinking it was the end of the world.
Gradually, the sky turned brighter and brighter.
Dust and fallen tree leaves permeated the air, suffocating those who tried to breathe it.
Hua Qiyue ran into view, looking at the scene in shock.
Yun Shimo had blood dripping down the corner of his lips, while Xuanji clenched his chest with a pale face.
They should be fighting.
Hua Qiyue knitted her brows. When the sky turned dark, she felt that great pressure as well. She asked Tianci to stay where he was and had Ji Jing mind him.
She’d come as quickly as she could, but it was too late.
The hare popped up out of nowhere and shrilled. “Are you two mad? A battle to the death? How deep is your hate for each other?”
Hua Qiyue’s face darkened. Did Xuanji get rid of the hare to come here to save her…? …or did he go mad after seeing her being taken advantage of?
Huangfu Xuan, Ji Feng, and Madame Yun had all made it here. Until now, they had been chasing after the “mysterious man.”
At the sight of the two, Madame Yun rushed to Yun Shimo’s side to stop him. Yun Xuan didn’t look pleased, either.
“Shimo, are you okay? Why…what are you two doing?” Madame Yun screamed. Yun Shimo’s face was unusually pale, but he faintly shook his head and said, “I’m okay. We’re just exchanging moves, learning from each other.”
“Madame Yun, we’re just exchanging moves,” Xuanji echoed.
“Ahh, you scared me. I thought you were fighting for real!” Madame Yun patted her breast exaggeratedly as Princess Qianyang ran to Yun Shimo to examine his wound.
The hare looked at Hua Qiyue, then at Yun Shimo and Xuanji. The way it looked at the three was very bizarre, but it didn’t say anything.
Yun Xuan cocked an eyebrow and walked away in silence.
Seeing that the two would rather die than tell the truth, Hua Qiyue didn’t bother to say anything and turned to leave, as well.
“Qiyue, wait.”
