#516 - One day, thousands of miles

The next day, early morning.

When Mu Xue'lan woke up, she saw Jun Wuxie lying on her stomach, his ear pressed against her lower abdomen, looking very serious.

"What are you doing?"

"Listening to my son talk to me."

Jun Wuxie said with a smile.

"Go away, he's only three months old, how can he talk to you?"

Mu Xue'lan's face turned slightly red, and she tapped him on the shoulder with her slender hand, but she couldn't help but smile.

Jun Wuxie was slightly stunned, and said, "You look so beautiful when you smile, smile more in front of me in the future, but you are not allowed to smile at others!"

His somewhat domineering and childish appearance, in stark contrast to his usual calm demeanor, instantly melted Mu Xue'lan's heart.

This man is very domineering.

But for some reason, she just liked his domineering attitude towards her.

When getting up, Mu Xue'lan wanted to help him dress, but Jun Wuxie stopped her, and instead carefully dressed her.

At this moment, he was gentle, and this gentleness made her intoxicated, and she looked at his serious appearance with blurred eyes.

Perhaps he was her nemesis in life.

She thought to herself, before meeting him, she couldn't imagine that she would be so intimate with a man.

But since she met him and lost her body to him, everything that followed was imprinted on her heart like a brand.

During the days of separation, she couldn't control herself from thinking about the bits and pieces of their time together, the more she thought about it, the more she missed him, and the more she missed him, the more she couldn't extricate herself, only to realize that her heart had long been captured by him.

In her heart, he was a great, upright man!

On that Soul Refining Mountain, he stood in front of her, blocking all dangers, even if he was fighting to the point where his body was broken and he didn't even have the strength to stand.

He still held his spear proudly, and the back view he left for her was always so upright and majestic, like a heavy and condensed mountain, lying in front, sheltering her from wind and rain, and protecting her.

No one knew her contradictory and tangled mood when they separated that day, the sadness in her heart.

She often thought, if she wasn't a member of the Ice Cloud Tower, she would have thrown herself into his arms without hesitation and stayed with him for life.

But she couldn't, she had the iron rules of the sect, the responsibilities of the sect, so she could only pretend to be indifferent to him, say some ruthless words, hurting him while also deeply hurting herself.

Now, she can finally put down all her worries, follow her heart, and love him well.

There is nothing more reassuring and happy for her than this.

Just as he said, she had taken the wrong path before, and now this feeling is so relaxed, unlike the past years, when she always felt that life was heavy.

"Your complexion is much better today, shall we go shopping in the city?"

After getting dressed and washing up, they walked out of Jubaozhai.

......

The sky in Beiyuan Ancient City was a bit bleak, and there was a hint of coldness in the cold air.

Although Mu Xue'lan was the sect master of one of the overlords of Beiyuan, she rarely set foot in the mortal world.

All the things in this mundane world were strange and new to her.

They held hands tightly, walking on the bustling street, attracting countless admiring glances.

One was handsome and masculine, and the other was like a jade tree covered in snow, like an iceberg snow lotus, noble and holy.

She was like a young girl who had just entered the world, and she felt novel about all kinds of interesting little things on the street, and whenever her eyes touched them, she would go forward to take a look, or play with them a few times.

Jun Wuxie smiled and accompanied her all the way, watching her smile like a flower, watching her be as happy as a little girl.

In the afternoon, he received a message from Lingfei through the communication jade talisman, but he only glanced at it slightly, and continued to accompany her shopping.

Until the lights came on and the sky gradually darkened.

"Are you happy today?"

Back in the small courtyard of Jubaozhai, Jun Wuxie poured two cups of hot tea and handed one of them to her.

"Happy, I have never unloaded all the burdens in my heart like this in my life. Before I met you, I didn't even know what it felt like to smile, but now it's easy to feel happy and smile."

"Then you should smile more in the future." Jun Wuxie held her beautiful and peerless face, and said with a slightly displeased expression: "I only allowed you to smile in front of me last night, but as a result, today, so many people saw your stunning smile, I even wanted to dig out their eyeballs at the time."

Mu Xue'lan bit her charming red lips lightly, looked at him with blurred eyes, and said, "Then I will only smile for you, others can only look."

"You are so good like this, you can always make me intoxicated."

Jun Wuxie was very emotional, he really didn't expect to be able to make Mu Xue'lan become what she is now in such a short period of time.

It seems that even her temperament has changed.

Perhaps, everyone has multiple sides, and what you see on weekdays is just one of them.

Just like himself, some people will always only see his strength and decisiveness, but he also has fragile moments, and he also has gentle moments.

"The things that have happened these days have made me understand a lot, and they have indeed changed my inner thoughts. I will unload all my pretense in front of you, but in front of others, I am still that Mu Xue'lan, after all, I have the label of Ice Cloud Tower on me."

"I like you like this."

"Then kiss me ~"

She blushed, raised her head slightly, and slowly closed her eyes.

Under the moonlight, Jun Wuxie looked at her charming and sexy red lips, and had the urge to bring her to justice on the spot.

He lowered his head and gently kissed her red lips, feeling the tenderness of her lips, gently biting her lip beads, and then went deep from her slightly opened teeth, exploring more.

Feeling the soft and tender tongue shyly dodging, he domineeringly chased after it, leaving her nowhere to escape, and she had to meet him and entangle with each other.

The gentle kiss gradually turned into a fiery demand, as if they wanted to melt each other into their own bodies and blood.

"Can't you be gentler?"

After the kiss, she looked at him with a bit of reproach, saying reproachful words, but her eyes were gentle and blurred, and under the hazy moonlight, those ice-snow-like transparent eyes sparkled with a little crystal, as if reflecting the stars in the sky.

Looking at her slightly pouting, coquettish face, Jun Wuxie smiled and said, "If you want gentleness, you have to wait until tomorrow."

"Why?"

Mu Xue'lan was stunned.

"Because, I want to spend a wild night with you."

Her face was suddenly covered with red clouds, so ashamed that she didn't dare to look him in the eye.

Images of the past in the Seven Tribulations Secret Realm appeared in her mind, and her body felt a trace of heat, and she felt a little scared, but more of it was expectation.

At this moment, she saw him summon Lan Lan, and just as she was about to ask him, he hugged her and straddled her on Lan Lan's back.

"Where are we going?"

Her voice trembled a little, both apprehensive and expectant.

"Back to Great Zhou, Lingfei sent a message, we can't stay in Beiyuan any longer."

He hugged her in front of him, and Lan Lan disappeared like the wind.

They arrived at Donghuang Ancient City through the ancient teleportation array, and then teleported to Nanyu Ancient City.

Lan Lan's speed suddenly increased, galloping like lightning, in the hazy night, like a blue light galloping across the vast and boundless land.

"Well, Wuxie, don't... how can you do this outside..."

After leaving Nanyu Ancient City and entering the vast mountains, the man hugging her actually turned her body around to face her.

Then, he actually...

Before the words could finish, she went limp, without a trace of strength.

The night was very quiet.

Lan Lan's speed was very fast, leaving the sonic boom far behind.

But its ears were constantly filled with sounds that were like crying and like joy, sometimes high-pitched and sometimes melodious.

It was very curious, what were the master and Sister Xuelan doing?

Several times, it looked back, but could only see flying green silk.

It was full of doubts, it was fine when we left the city.

Why, is the master angry, is he fighting with Sister Xuelan, and he made her cry?

Master is so fierce ~

Lan Lan thought so.

......

At dawn, Great Zhou was in sight.

Jun Wuxie looked at a ray of light in the distant sky, embracing Mu Xue'lan, who had no strength left in his arms, with a radiant face.

Lan Lan's speed was really amazing, running continuously all night, with an average speed of more than a thousand times the speed of sound.

He was absolutely sure that this was a veritable thousand miles a day!

After entering the territory of Great Zhou, Mu Xue'lan blushed and tidied up her clothes, with a hint of blush that had not yet disappeared on her face.

When they returned to Mount Zongwang, the sun had already emerged from the clouds, casting golden and red rays, illuminating the world with a brilliant light.

They landed in the small courtyard, and Lan Lan immediately turned back into a cute little thing that was only a foot long.

Lingfei pulled Chan'er out of the house.

"Brother Jun ~" Chan'er pounced on him, curiously looking at Mu Xue'lan, and said a little timidly: "Who is this pretty sister?"

"Her name is Mu Xue'lan, call her Sister Xuelan in the future, okay?"

"Okay, Chan'er knows ~"

She nodded very obediently.

"Tell me, what exactly is going on?"

Jun Wuxie sat down at the bluestone table holding Chan'er.

Lingfei took out a set of tea sets, and while boiling water, she said: "The secret place deep in Binhai Ancient Town seems to be about to be born, the geniuses of the major forces have arrived in Binhai a few days ago, and the figure of the Sea Clan has appeared there."

"Sea Clan? Have they finally set foot on land?"

Jun Wuxie was slightly stunned. He first heard about the Sea Clan from the mouth of Elder Xuanyuan.

The Sea Clan is very strong, and even the Xuanyuan Clan, whose strength is not weaker than Tianjing Sect and other forces, is afraid of them.

Now, the Sea Clan has finally couldn't bear it any longer and has landed on the continent, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the cultivators on land.

This golden age is already filled with cruel competition, and every proud and ambitious genius on the path to become a strong cultivator is working hard to compete for resources.

The resources on land are not even enough for the geniuses on land to share, and if the Sea Clan comes to snatch them, it will inevitably weaken the strength of the younger generation on land.

"Well, according to the news, there may be unparalleled treasures hidden deep within that secret realm. Someone witnessed it with their own eyes, but the treasure was too fast, and they didn't see it clearly in that fleeting glimpse. After this news leaked, in less than two days, the geniuses of the Sea Clan successively landed on the continent and appeared in the ancient coastal town."

"Has the Sea Clan already entered the secret realm?"

Jun Wuxie asked.

"Not yet. They are gathering in the ancient town, probably waiting for the core area of the secret realm to open."

"Where did this news come from?"

"Jubaozhai. They have people on the side of the ancient coastal town."

Jun Wuxie nodded without speaking.

He was very worried about Su Xiaoxiao, Xu Daoling, and Kong Xu.

Once the core area of that secret realm opens, if they go deep into it and encounter the Sea Clan's geniuses, it will be very dangerous.

"Young Master, there is one more thing. The day before yesterday night, an anomaly appeared in the Yunling area. There, light soared into the sky, and then it attracted the Nine Heavens Lightning, covering tens of thousands of miles around the entire Yunling area. Yesterday morning, someone went to explore what happened, but found that the mountains, rivers, trees, and plants in the Yunling area were not damaged."

"Yunling? Is it the Yunling Mountain Range where the Yunling Nan family is located?"

"Yes, according to reliable news, the anomaly originated from within the Nan family's clan land in Yunling. It is said that it is very likely related to the Nan Emperor. News has spread that the Nan Emperor will leave seclusion within two months, and when that time comes, he will sweep through his peers and be invincible among his generation under the starry sky."

"Invincible among his generation under the starry sky?" Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment, and said, "I'm afraid this was spread by the Nan family, right? They are really high-profile, and they are not afraid that a Half-Sage will go to their clan to obliterate the Nan Emperor. From this, it can be seen that they must have reliance and confidence. Nan Emperor, interesting. Now that I think about it, weren't those people from the Hunter Guild originally going to marry the Nan family and marry Ke Qing to the Nan Emperor?"

"Young Master, you must be careful of the Nan family. This kind of anomaly is not simple. I am afraid that even if a force like the Tianjing Sect were to come to the Nan family now, it would be difficult to gain any advantage. As for that Nan Emperor..."

"Nan Emperor, if he dares to jump around, I will kill him."

Jun Wuxie said lightly. To claim invincibility under the starry sky, what big words!

"Well, yesterday, many foreign merchants settled in the capital. They are all martial artists, and their strength is not considered strong, but the industries involved are very broad, and they are currently going through various formalities."

"If it is doing business, as long as they abide by the laws and regulations of the Great Zhou, there is no problem."

"That's what Young Master said, but they have a common point. Among the industries involved, there are entertainment industries."

"Entertainment industry?" Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "You have people pay attention to it and see what happens. Still, that sentence, as long as everything abides by the laws and regulations of the Great Zhou, then you don't need to pay attention to it."

"By the way, the allocation of spiritual fields should be put on the agenda. When you have time, go to the palace yourself and discuss it with His Majesty. You must tell His Majesty that this matter must be done well. The fields must be distributed to the people, and private individuals, especially merchants, are prohibited from enclosing land and buying and selling land."

After he finished speaking, he took out a jade box and handed it to Lingfei: "Inside are spiritual seeds. Keep them safe. After the planning of the spiritual field reclamation is completed, plant them and cultivate them into new seeds, which will be uniformly managed by the dynasty, and then distributed to each household."

"Young Master, are you planning to go to the ancient coastal town?"

Seeing that he had explained these things and left the spiritual seeds behind, Lingfei knew that he was about to leave.

"I have to go. I can't help but worry about Xiaoxiao and the two junior brothers. Moreover, there should be many good things deep in that secret realm. I have to go and take a look. I can't let the Sea Clan take advantage of it."

"Young Master, when will you leave?"

"Tomorrow, probably." He said here, thought for a while, and said, "By the way, you send people to pay attention to the situation of the Bingyun Tower at all times. If they face the disaster of extermination, you will personally go to the Bingyun Tower. If it doesn't reach that point, you don't need to pay attention to it."

"Understood."

Lingfei nodded. The Young Master's meaning was very clear, which was to ensure that the Bingyun Tower would not be destroyed, and he would not care about anything else.

She was not surprised by this.

When she learned that Jun Wuxie had killed his way into the Bingyun Tower, she thought of a series of problems that the Bingyun Tower might face in the future.
