Chapter 072: Follow Me from Now On

"I..."

Yun Yun was taken aback upon hearing Hun Tiandi's words.

She was momentarily stunned.

Yun Yun thought to herself, "This man is so domineering! But... I love it!"

Quickly regaining her composure, Yun Yun said, "I didn't come here to trouble it. I just wanted to exchange some Purple Spirit Crystals with the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. But the negotiation failed, and it eventually led to a fight."

At this point, Yun Yun changed the direction of her words and said, "So, thank you for saving me. Without you, I would probably have perished in the Monster Beast Mountain Range. Such great kindness and grace are unforgettable... So, perhaps... I can offer myself..."

As she spoke these words, Yun Yun's cheeks turned crimson, and she lowered her head, wanting to express something.

However, before she could fully reveal her heartfelt words, Hun Tiandi calmly replied, "Oh."

Then, he turned around and continued facing the wind, overlooking the entire Monster Beast Mountain Range.

"I..." Yun Yun was about to express her feelings, but seeing Hun Tiandi's nonchalant demeanor, she thought, "Does he have no interest in me? Or perhaps he simply doesn't see me as someone worth his attention?"

"This can't be right! I'm not ugly at all!" Yun Yun murmured to herself, feeling a bit disheartened.

Yun Yun lowered her head and took a look at herself.

"Those are not small either!"

"Should I say it or not? What if he agrees? That would be great. But if he doesn't... it would be so embarrassing for me."

After much hesitation in her heart, Yun Yun ultimately decided not to say anything. Revealing her feelings would only result in awkwardness if he rejected her.

...

Yun Yun slowly approached Hun Tiandi and stood by his side, casting a sidelong glance at him as she asked, "And what about you? How did you end up deep in the Monster Beast Mountain Range? Are you also here for the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's Purple Spirit Crystals?"

Hun Tiandi turned his head to look at Yun Yun.

Their eyes met, and Yun Yun couldn't help but feel flustered. She lowered her head, silently complaining in her heart, "Why does he have to stare at me like that? Doesn't he know it makes me embarrassed?"

Seeing Yun Yun bowing her head, Hun Tiandi didn't think much of it. He calmly replied, "I'm just passing through. I have no interest in those so-called Purple Spirit Crystals."

As Hun Tiandi, he had no need for such cultivation resources. The only thing that caught his attention in the Dou Qi continent was the Tuo She Ancient Emperor Jade.

The reason he was here was partly because he was passing by, but another reason was Yun Yun.

But would he admit that? Absolutely not.

"Oh," Yun Yun responded, nodding her head. It made sense.

With just a single gesture, he could easily destroy the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. How could he be interested in the meager Purple Spirit Crystals it possessed?

The atmosphere became awkward, and no one spoke. Yun Yun clenched her fists under her sleeves, gathering her courage. She said, "Thank you for saving me. Can I invite you to visit my Misty Cloud Sect?"

Yun Yun knew that if she didn't speak up, he would leave, and she would have no chance.

So, even though there was a high possibility of rejection, she gathered her courage after struggling in her heart for a long time.

Yun Yun decided to extend the invitation despite the anticipated rejection. She believed that it was better to try than to do nothing at all.

Hun Tiandi didn't immediately respond to Yun Yun's invitation. Instead, he looked at her. Yun Yun nervously clutched the hem of her clothes, displaying a hint of shyness amidst her anxiety.

"What should I do? Will he agree? Or will he refuse?" Various thoughts raced through Yun Yun's mind, and she was torn.

Just when Yun Yun had lost all hope, Hun Tiandi spoke in a calm voice, saying, "Alright."

"Ah..." Yun Yun heard his response, and her mouth slightly opened in surprise.

She raised her head and looked at Hun Tiandi with delight in her eyes. Their eyes met for a few seconds before Yun Yun shyly lowered her head.

Her heart was pounding, beating intensely. It was the feeling of being infatuated.

"Is it true?" Yun Yun couldn't help but voice her disbelief, her happiness seemingly coming too suddenly, making it difficult to accept.

Hun Tiandi asked, "Don't you welcome me? Were your words just empty?"

"No... It's absolutely impossible," Yun Yun quickly shook her head.

She couldn't be happier that he would accompany her to the Misty Cloud Sect. How could she have casually said those words?

It was impossible.

As the conversation ended, Yun Yun reached out and held Hun Tiandi's hand, ready to leave. She said, "Let's go back to the Misty Cloud Sect now!"

Hun Tiandi allowed Yun Yun to hold his hand and took a few steps with her. Then he spoke, "Woman, don't you want the Purple Spirit Crystals anymore?"

Hun Tiandi hadn't forgotten that Yun Yun came here risking her life to confront the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King for the sake of the crystals. And now she was just going back without them?

This foolish woman!

Didn't she remember that she almost paid with her life if he hadn't coincidentally passed by and appeared here? If he hadn't arrived in time, the current Yun Yun would have met a tragic end.

"Oh... the Purple Spirit Crystals," Yun Yun realized as Hun Tiandi reminded her.

She stopped in her tracks and immediately remembered her initial purpose for coming here, which was to obtain the crystals from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Now, was she becoming oblivious to her own interests?

Yun Yun released Hun Tiandi's hand and turned to him, saying, "Thank you for reminding me. Why don't you wait here for a moment? I'll go and come back."

"Or... would you like to accompany me to the cave of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King?" Yun Yun asked for Hun Tiandi's opinion.

Hun Tiandi shook his head and replied, "You can go by yourself. I'll wait here for you."

"Oh..." A hint of disappointment flickered in Yun Yun's eyes as she nodded. "You wait here, and I'll be back soon."

With those words, Yun Yun disappeared from the mountaintop as she headed towards the cave of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Hun Tiandi watched Yun Yun's departing figure and murmured, "It's the perfect opportunity to visit Qingshan Town while this foolish woman is away."

As his words fell, Hun Tiandi's figure flickered and disappeared from the mountaintop.

…

Qingshan Town!

A small town on the outskirts of the Demon Beast Mountain Range!

Hun Tiandi appeared in Qingshan Town and, with a single thought, found the whereabouts of the Little Fairy Doctor.

Thousand Medicines Pavilion.

Hun Tiandi stepped into Thousand Medicines Pavilion, where a gentle woman stood behind the counter.

She wore a pale dress and had a beautiful but not stunning appearance. However, her aura exuded a unique freshness and ethereal quality.

To put it simply, this woman gave off a feeling of first love.

And this woman was none other than the Little Fairy Doctor.

Hun Tiandi gazed at the Little Fairy Doctor, and her eyes also fell upon him. She displayed a faint smile.

The Little Fairy Doctor asked, "What herbs do you want to buy, sir?"

Hun Tiandi ignored her question and calmly looked at the Little Fairy Doctor, saying, "Follow me from now on."
