Flower Heart Movement: Reunion
Silver lamp shatters the stars, outside the carriage, moonlight silently crosses the carved saddle.
Half-melted snow in the pear courtyard, pine winds secretly pass, remember holding a sword in the deep courtyard.
In the depths of the painted screen, orioles sing softly, and then secretly glance, as eyebrows gather and disperse.
Since parting, courier horses broke through the gardenia, finally continuing the old bond.
Remembering the first meeting at the plum blossom's tip, he smiled and pointed, a dark horse treading through spring mist.
Sweat dampens the silk robe, a frosty blade solidifies on the wrist, drawing fluttering butterfly shadows.
A jade box deeply locked cannot contain dreams, always taking advantage of the moon, secretly turning the scripture scrolls.
Tonight, the brocade quilt is piled like clouds, to talk again before the lamp.
...
Three days passed, and Zhou Fan finally felt that his Nine Yang Body was much smoother.
Looking at the beautiful woman in his arms, her face full of happiness, Zhou Fan smiled.
He lightly kissed Jiang Qingzhi's forehead and whispered into her ear.
"Qingzhi, you are truly beautiful."
Seeing Jiang Qingzhi still with her eyes tightly closed, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her cheeks flushed, Zhou Fan knew immediately that this little girl was shy.
So he covered Jiang Qingzhi with a thin blanket, quietly walked out of the carriage, and closed the door behind him.
Inside the carriage, Jiang Qingzhi seemed to sense Zhou Fan's departure and happily opened her eyes.
She clutched the blanket Zhou Fan had placed over her, inhaling almost greedily, because...
On this blanket, there was Zhou Fan's scent.
...
Stepping out of the carriage, Zhou Fan looked at the awakened bodyguards and coachmen, simply informing them that the Desire Demon that had manipulated them yesterday had been dealt with, and telling them to rest in place for a day.
Additionally, Jiang Qingzhi was still sleeping at this time, so Zhou Fan told these people not to disturb Jiang Qingzhi and to report any unusual situations directly to him.
The members of the carriage convoy still retained some memories of being manipulated yesterday and had witnessed Zhou Fan's astonishing Heavenly Human Realm strength, so they naturally deferred to Zhou Fan.
Returning to his own carriage, Zhou Fan saw that Yaya was already awake, so he asked the coachman to bring the breakfast Zhou Fan had bought when passing through the last town.
While eating breakfast intimately with Yaya, Zhou Fan pondered how to bring up the topic with Yaya.
But just as Zhou Fan was still preparing himself, Yaya suddenly spoke.
"Husband, why do you smell of Qingzhi?"
Yaya nestled in Zhou Fan's arms, wrinkling her delicate nose as she asked with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Fan hadn't expected Yaya's nose to be so sharp, and he immediately said nervously.
"Yaya, my wife, if, and I mean if, I found other friends behind your back, would you be angry?"
Yaya heard this, paused for a moment, and then immediately said angrily: "Of course I would be angry!"
"Husband, if you want to find other friends, just find them, why do you have to do it behind Yaya's back?"
"I... huh?"
Zhou Fan saw Yaya looking very angry and thought she would say something else, but it turned out Yaya was angry about *that*?
What kind of top-tier best friend is this?! (Trembling voice)
"Yaya, my wife, your husband truly likes you so much!" Zhou Fan looked at Yaya's delicate and cute little face and gave her a big kiss.
Then Zhou Fan said with a serious and earnest expression: "Yaya, my wife, I promise that from now on, I will report to you whenever I find other friends, and Yaya, my wife, you will always be the most important."
"Hmph hmph~ That's not bad." Yaya looked at the obedient Zhou Fan and immediately said happily.
"Alright, Xiao Fanzi, this Empress has forgiven you. Quickly tell this Empress, have you already won over Jiang Qingzhi?"
"Reporting to Empress Yaya, this subordinate has successfully befriended Jiang Qingzhi and plans to go to the Kang Wang Residence to propose marriage in a few days."
"Hmm, not bad, as expected of this Empress's chief internal manager. You are indeed capable and responsible."
"Alright, since you have finished serving this Empress her breakfast, go accompany your new favorite now."
"But Empress, this subordinate still wishes to serve you for a bit, may I?"
"Hmm?"
...
At the same time, in a forgotten corner, the Desire Demon sensed her master's surging desire power once again, and couldn't help but feel a little terrified.
Is my master really that strong?
Not only is his physical body powerful, but his desire power is also like an inexhaustible source. How on earth does my master do it?
Why am I suddenly a little curious about this crude master?
...
After much persuasion, Zhou Fan finally made Yaya happily accept the new member of their big family.
After covering Yaya with the blanket, Zhou Fan walked out of the carriage, closed the door, and finally remembered something he seemed to have forgotten.
Oh, right, that silly roe deer.
Zhou Fan's mind once again took the lead. He checked the System panel while walking towards the place where he had hidden the silly roe deer.
"Host: Zhou Fan
Luck Value: 0
Realm: Innate
Physique: Nine Yang Body
Cultivation Technique: Yin Yang Creation Skill (Minor Achievement)
Lifespan (Remaining): 80 years
Dao Companion: Yaya (1/1)
Offspring: None
Evaluation: A small fry comparable to the Middle Stage of Qi Refining"
The biggest change on the System panel was the addition of a Physique section, which showed that Zhou Fan now possessed the Nine Yang Body.
As for the remaining Lifespan increasing from 30 years to 80 years, it was merely a byproduct of the transformation of Zhou Fan's life level.
After all, Mortals can live for a maximum of a hundred years, but if a Mortal can Breakthrough to the Innate Realm, they can extend their Lifespan by fifty years.
If they can Breakthrough beyond the Innate Realm, which is the Heavenly Human Realm, they can extend their Lifespan by another hundred years.
And the theoretical maximum Lifespan of the Heavenly Human Realm is two hundred and fifty years.
A very auspicious number.
As for why Ye Fan, that Son of Destiny, could live so long? Naturally, it was because he was a Son of Destiny. Not only did he constantly encounter fortuitous opportunities, but after becoming the Rank limit of the Mortal World, that scoundrel was even able to frequently obtain Lifespan-extending treasures.
If it weren't for his Son of Destiny status not being high enough, with his dog-like Luck, he would probably have already Ascended to the Cultivation World.
However, now that Zhou Fan knew of Ye Fan's existence, Ye Fan would certainly not be able to live as comfortably as he did in the original plot.
Zhou Fan did not intend to miss many important people and items in Ye Fan's life.
After all, this was Sister System's task~
While thinking, Zhou Fan showed a kind smile.
Immediately, he asked the System in his mind.
"Oh, right, System, why was there no reward for me breaking Jiang Qingzhi's bottom line this time?"
"My Qingzhi is so beautiful, did Ye Fan not meet Jiang Qingzhi in the original plot?"
"Ding, reporting to Host, in the original plot, Jiang Qingzhi committed suicide by jumping into a well at the age of eighteen, so Ye Fan did not meet her."
"Ah? My Qingzhi was so miserable in the original plot?"
"That's right, Host. In the original plot, Jiang Qingzhi did not meet you. She never married, was depressed every day, and eventually chose to commit suicide by jumping into a well."
"And this incident greatly impacted Kang Wang Jiang Linfeng. He also became depressed, and his health deteriorated until his second son, who was Jiang Qingzhi's third brother, invited the renowned divine physician—Ye Fan—and Kang Wang Jiang Linfeng's symptoms began to improve."
