Jiang Nannan heard this and grabbed Xu Sanshi's ear in one swift motion, saying coldly, "Xu Sanshi, do you want to see that Beast-Ear Female Soul Master so badly that you'd rather be with her from now on?"
Xu Sanshi, not angry but delighted, responded, "Nannan, are you telling me that you're ready to spend your life with me? I may not be good at many things, but I, Xu Sanshi, dare to guarantee my love for only you, Nannan."
Jiang Nannan, as if electrocuted, released her hand, her face flushed as she said, "Who... Who said I'd spend my life with you? I haven't even agreed... agreed to be with you!"
Tang Ya then leaned in close to Jiang Nannan and teased, "Nannan, don't agree to him lightly. Who knows what sort of mischief he has up his sleeve!"
Men, if they get what they want too easily, they will change their hearts!
Xu Sanshi, indignant, pointed at Bei Bei and contested, "Tang Ya, why don't you look at your own Bei Bei? He is much more scheming than I am!"
Tang Ya cast a glance at Bei Bei with her beautiful eyes and said softly, "Because I trust Bei Bei. But does Nannan trust you?"
Xu Sanshi was at a loss for words.
Although Jiang Nannan's feelings for him had improved a lot more than before, at most they had just held hands and kissed; they hadn't done anything serious!
But he understood her! So he never took the initiative to ask...
Jiang Nannan snapped, "Xiao Ya, that's enough!"
Tang Ya, feigning hurt, protested, "No way, Nannan, you're actually speaking up for Xu Sanshi..."
Bei Bei, inappropriately butting in, cleared his throat and said, "Ahem... Xiao Ya, the Tang Sect disciples are still here; it's not a good influence!"
Realizing this, Tang Ya immediately came back to her senses, only to find the Tang Sect disciples looking at her with weird expressions...
After a few coughs, she announced, "Ahem... You can now move around freely within the Tang Sect, but be mindful of the areas that are still being prepared."
Upon hearing this from Tang Ya, the Tang Sect disciples were excited and said in unison, "Yes, Sect Master!"
In an instant, the Tang Sect disciples, as if liberated, quickly dispersed to explore the various buildings of the Tang Sect...
Tang Wutong's beautiful eyes twinkled, and she proactively reached out to grasp Qian Yu's hand, saying in a soft tone, "Qian Yu, let's go see the other parts of the Tang Sect as well."
Qian Yu nodded, "Mhm!"
And so, the two of them set off side by side...
Watching this scene, Xu Sanshi felt a twinge of jealousy and said, "Nannan, let's go have a look too!"
Jiang Nannan gave him a sideways glance, choosing not to respond, and instead began walking straight ahead...
Xu Sanshi hurriedly jogged to catch up, "Wait for me, Nannan!"
Aili, who had never experienced such a harmonious atmosphere, felt endless warmth in her heart. She thought how desirable it would be to live with this group of people forever...
Soon after, Tang Ya beckoned to Aili and said, "Aili, if you're not busy, come over and discuss the future development of the Tang Sect with us!"
The development of the Tang Sect still required the establishment of a series of plans, such as student recruitment, teacher hiring, and so on...
Coming to her senses, Aili hastily nodded, "Okay, Sect Master!"
...
The Sun-Moon Empire!
Upon reaching the imperial palace, Qian Yu casually glanced around...
Then, she headed towards the palace where Juzi had previously lived...
With a "crack," Qian Yu pushed open the grand doors and couldn't help but stare blankly...
She saw a dignified and elegant woman sitting in front of a dressing table, quietly and delicately making herself up. The sight of her exposed shoulders and the barely hidden smooth skin tempted one to sneak a closer look...
Especially that intoxicating aura that involuntarily enveloped her, she seemed all the more enchanting, shrouded in a beautiful haze…
Qian Yu gazed upon the scene with a trace of admiration in his eyes, remaining silent so not to disturb the tranquil moment…
After gazing intently for over ten minutes, Juzi elegantly set down the hairpin in her hand and slowly stood up from the chair…
With her back to Qian Yu, she parted her lips slightly and said, "Qian Yu…"
Qian Yu replied, "Hmm?"
He could actually detect a hint of reluctance in Juzi's words…
Juzi slowly turned around, revealing her slender and graceful body, fixed her gaze tightly on Qian Yu in front of her, and smiled, "Qian Yu, do you think I'm beautiful?"
Even Qian Yu was captivated by Juzi at that moment, and after coming back to his senses, he said softly in admiration, "Very beautiful!"
Juzi blinked those spirited beautiful eyes and said with a playful tone, "Is that so? As long as you think I'm beautiful, it wasn't a waste of effort!"
Qian Yu slowly approached Juzi, took out a storage soul tool, and handed it over, "Juzi, this is for you. It contains a tenth-grade Spirit Guidance Device capable of destroying half a country with its blast…"
Even a ninth-grade Soul Guidance Device could only level a city, but Qian Yu's tenth-grade Spirit Guidance Device could bomb half a country!
It could be said that their power was completely on different levels!
Juzi's beautiful eyes lit up with a few strands of light as she reached out to receive the storage soul tool…
Then, she threw her arms around Qian Yu tightly, tears rolling down her cheeks as she said softly, "Thank you, Qian Yu!"
Feeling her warmth in his embrace, Qian Yu reached out his hand to stroke her hair and asked, "Juzi, what's the matter?"
Juzi wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and shook her head, "It's nothing. Just thinking about soon destroying the Xingluo Empire and unifying the entire Continent, I feel a bit overwhelmed."
Qian Yu sighed inwardly, keeping his expression unchanged, "Is that so? But what do you plan to do after unifying the Continent?"
Juzi's pupils faltered, and she said gently, "Qian Yu, can we not talk about this now?"
Qian Yu nodded without refusal, "Okay…"
He was eager to know what Juzi truly intended by doing all this…
Both Qian Yu and Juzi then sat quietly on their chairs…
The latter very focused, gently poured the already brewed tea into two cups, and then steadily lifted one before Qian Yu…
Having done so, she then turned to Qian Yu with a complex expression, "Qian Yu, have a taste. I brewed this tea for you myself!"
Qian Yu, glancing at the intricate emotions in Juzi's beautiful eyes, smiled as he took the tea cup and brought it slowly towards his lips…
In the moment before he could sip, Juzi's voice broke with a choke, "Wait… Qian Yu."
Feigning ignorance, Qian Yu asked, "What's wrong?"
Juzi pursed her lips tightly and, staring intently at Qian Yu, said, "Qian Yu, I've put poison in that cup of tea…"
Qian Yu's face showed no sign of surprise as he calmly set down the cup, saying indifferently, "Poison, huh…"
"Juzi, can you tell me why you've done this?"
Juzi's tone gradually became cold, "Qian Yu, your existence might pose a threat to my rule in the future!"
She wouldn't allow such a person to live, not even if it was the man she loved most!
