Nervous, emperor

Emperor Beichen nodded slightly, "Good, we've also obtained the Ninth Grade Purple Spirit Mushroom."

As Emperor Beichen maintained his calm and composed demeanor, Bai Li Hongzhuang couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration. She knew that resolving matters within the sect and obtaining the Ninth Grade Purple Spirit Mushroom was no easy task, yet Emperor Beichen seemed to handle it effortlessly. From his nonchalant appearance, it seemed as though he was dealing with a simple matter, but she understood that it couldn't have been that easy. Otherwise, Emperor Beichen wouldn't have needed to personally take care of it.

She had a faint feeling that as long as Emperor Beichen took action, all problems would be resolved. With him present, everything could be solved.

"I believe you must be exhausted from rushing back this time."

With a face of exquisite beauty, Bai Li Hongzhuang showed concern and affection. Those around them thought highly of Emperor Beichen's status, but they were unaware of the pressures he faced. Due to his extraordinary identity, he had to bear much more than others. Now that Emperor Beichen frequently accompanied her, he endured tremendous pressure.

Feeling Bai Li Hongzhuang's concern, Emperor Beichen's heart softened. He gently grabbed her delicate and soft hand with his right hand, his eyes filled with tenderness.

"Not tired at all. As long as I see you, I won't feel tired."

Hearing Emperor Beichen's sweet words, Bai Li Hongzhuang noticed the seriousness hidden deep within his starry eyes. The smile on her lips overflowed with happiness.

"However, about you and Mo Yunjue—"

Emperor Beichen's deep and profound eyes revealed a trace of nervousness. He hadn't intended to ask, but Mo Yunjue's attitude had made him feel threatened.

Bai Li Hongzhuang silently observed Emperor Beichen, a hint of amusement rising in her heart. These past few days, Emperor Beichen had refrained from asking her about Mo Yunjue, but now he couldn't help himself.

Sensing Bai Li Hongzhuang's scrutinizing gaze, Emperor Beichen became even more nervous, afraid that his question would make her think he didn't trust her.

Although he had sent Heimu to investigate Mo Yunjue's information, what he truly wanted to know was Bai Li Hongzhuang's stance.

Nervousness, a sentiment Emperor Beichen had never experienced before. It only emerged when he faced Bai Li Hongzhuang because her feelings meant everything to him.

Because he cared so much, he felt nervous.

In the past, he would have found this sentiment laughable, but now he was deeply immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself.

Observing Emperor Beichen's nervous demeanor, a smile gradually appeared in Bai Li Hongzhuang's eyes.

"Mo Yunjue and I are just friends, nothing more."

Bai Li Hongzhuang's expression was calm. She truly considered Mo Yunjue only as a friend and nothing beyond that. From the moment Emperor Beichen entered her heart, he became the one she would spend her life with. She could see Emperor Beichen's sincere affection for her, and she was not a greedy or fickle person. As long as she had Emperor Beichen, someone who genuinely cared for her, it was enough.

With Bai Li Hongzhuang's words, Emperor Beichen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Particularly, Bai Li Hongzhuang's calm demeanor made him understand that she had always been single-minded and free from distractions.
