Qin Yuan thought about who he would give the bone to and he couldn’t help but stare at Jian Yixue who was walking towards the Purple Ocean Dragon.
“Alright, let’s go back first,” he said, signaling for Qin Wuxin and Yi Xue to climb onto the Dragon’s back.
They nodded but Qin Wuxin glanced at Jian Yixue, seemingly guessing that her father was coming for her.
This time she was silent.
Of course, it was just as she thought, Qin Yuan walked over to Jian Yixue.
“Miss, how have these nine years been? — I believe you have gained a lot,” he said, observing her face and cultivation.
Her strength now was already quite different. She might be able to defeat her previous self with a single strike.
Pursing her lips, she replied, “Not much happened… I spent more time cultivating.”
“Well, it shouldn’t be difficult for you now to defeat Sun Guiye if his strength doesn’t increase much.”
“I’m no longer interested in that,” she replied.
“Oh?” Qin Yuan was slightly surprised by her response.
He looked at her again and suddenly thought she had truly become a woman.
Qin Yuan didn’t say anything else, grabbing her hand before stepping onto the Purple Ocean Dragon’s back..
Whoosh!
The latter slid as soon as they landed.
It was just that, even though they had already landed, Jian Yixue didn’t try to let go of Qin Yuan’s hand that was holding hers.
She just stood quietly.
Qin Yuan couldn’t help but whisper, “Miss, I’m holding your hand?”
Hearing his voice, she looked at him, but still doing nothing, she replied, “do whatever you want!”
“What?” Qin Yuan was shocked unconsciously.
She probably just meant that it was okay to hold her hand, but her words made anyone who heard her think of many meanings.
Qin Yuan wanted to tease her a little, so he asked, “what if I hug you?”
This time she didn’t answer, but her head nodded slightly.
Seeing that made Qin Yuan realize her words might really have a lot of meaning.
“Miss, you’re not really in love with me, are you?” he asked again.
Before entering the Secret Realm, she had indeed softened up to him and even thanked him, but now.
Qin Yuan’s gaze fell into her eyes.
Being looked at directly like that, finally there was redness on her neck and cheeks, she then lowered her head.
Qin Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
She became prettier as her appearance became more mature, but at the same time also became cuter.
Click!
He snapped his fingers.
Nothing happened, but the views the others including Qin Wuxin and Yi Xue had on them became different from what they really were.
They only saw them standing side by side.
However, after snapping his fingers, Qin Yuan began to tug on Jian Yixue’s hand.
Little by little, the woman’s body became closer to him.
When she finally arrived in front of him, he grabbed her by the waist.
He then tugged at the slender waist, making it curve.
Their faces immediately faced each other where their noses were only an inch away from each other.
Qin Yuan remembered the first day they met. It could be said that she was the first woman he had met in the Divine World.
So far there’s no need to argue, he spoiled her a lot despite her demeanor which might be annoying in the eyes of many.
He had no clear reason for it.
However, without those annoying things, he thought the main factor was because she was the type of woman he really liked.
Her face shape and style that was like a traditional Asian woman plus her unyielding attitude and the fact that she struggled from the lowest point, even the minus point, made Qin Yuan feel admiration for her. He often wondered if he could get through such things under the same conditions.
His gaze then moved to her forehead which was only covered by a few strands of hair.
After a moment of thought, he kissed her forehead.
It was only for a moment but made her body tremble.
After that, he pinched her cheeks.
“Well, Miss, although I also like you, you are still too young, wait until you become a Divine Emperor.” Qin Yuan said.
He was about to let go of her waist, but suddenly, she grabbed his clothes.
“I don’t want to wait,” she said, looking him in the eye and this time she didn’t look shy anymore.
“Miss…” Qin Yuan was taken aback by her actions.
“Don’t keep calling me Miss, my name is Yixue,” she replied.
“You have to be patient, Miss!” Qin Yuan still didn’t call her name.
He pushed her slightly so that her hands were off his clothes.
There was nothing she could do, so she pursed her lips as she stared at him.
“Huh, you hypocrite,” she said in a low voice.
When she said that, she suddenly threw a Storage Ring at Qin Yuan.
“I got something in the Secret Realm, that should be what you’re looking for the most since you’ve changed a lot since getting one from the Holy Sword Emperor,” she said.
“Eh?” Qin Yuan almost widened his eyes when he heard her words.
“Is this?” He subconsciously asked while turning his gaze to the ring that landed in his hand.
With a glance, he could see inside the ring.
What he found was certainly something he had been looking for.
“A Fragment.”
Ding!
[You managed to obtain 1 Heavenly Scripture Fragment, you gained 80,000 Karma Points. The next one you will get 160,000 Karma Points.]
[Karma Points: 375,100]
The System’s notification proved that it was actually a Heavenly Scripture Fragment.
Qin Yuan couldn’t help but stare at Jian Yixue again.
He stowed the ring into his Storage Ring before grabbing her waist once more to embrace it.
“My dear Yixue, it seems it’s not wrong that I spoiled you all this time, you really are my lucky star,” he said while pinching her nose.
Jian Yixue looked embarrassed again, she looked the other way so that her right cheek was facing Qin Yuan.
Seeing that, Qin Yuan finally kissed her on the cheek.
