Fire God Jade, Myriad Paths Talisman
"What's wrong, Revered Master?" Chen Yuan asked curiously.
Leng Youmeng pursed her lips. Chen Yuan's hot and cold attitude towards her today made her feel a little irritable.
"Revered Master, are you reluctant to let me go?" Chen Yuan asked.
After pondering for a moment, Leng Youmeng nodded slightly.
She was afraid that if she shook her head, Chen Yuan would overthink it and believe that she disliked him.
Chen Yuan moved closer to Leng Youmeng, tucking the wisps of hair from her forehead behind her ear.
The touch of his fingertips made Leng Youmeng's delicate body tremble slightly. She wanted to reach out and stop him, but as soon as she thought of their Dao Companion relationship, she forcefully held back.
Intimate gestures between Dao Companions should be normal, right? She thought to herself.
Revered Master's mature face made Chen Yuan unable to resist wanting to kiss her.
"Revered Master, shall we Dual Cultivate?" Chen Yuan probed.
"Mm!" Leng Youmeng nodded. She had initially stopped Chen Yuan with this in mind.
Chen Yuan was startled, not expecting Revered Master to agree so readily.
"Don't kiss me, close your eyes." A faint blush appeared on Leng Youmeng's cold face as she extended her slender hand to cover Chen Yuan's lips.
"Revered Master, are you jealous today?"
"No!"
Suddenly, Leng Youmeng's eyes widened. The tingling sensation in her ear was like an electric shock, making her heart itch.
Chen Yuan actually... dared to bite her ear... Two hours later.
Leng Youmeng lay in Chen Yuan's arms, her forehead covered in sweat, wisps of hair clinging to her face, breathing heavily.
She was the one who initiated the entire session. There was nothing she could do; Leng Youmeng was too embarrassed, so she could only take a Joyful Union Pill.
Chen Yuan was fine; with the boost from his Hongmeng Immortal Body, he still had energy left.
After getting dressed, Leng Youmeng returned to her previous cold demeanor, sitting cross-legged on the bed to Cultivate with her eyes closed.
"Revered Master, tomorrow this Disciple wishes to go out for some tempering," Chen Yuan's low voice sounded in Leng Youmeng's ear.
Leng Youmeng raised her eyes and asked indifferently, "Where are you going?"
"Qingyao Mountain Range," Chen Yuan replied.
The Qingyao Mountain Range is not far from the Xuantian Sect. Many Disciples go there to hunt Yao Beasts and improve their combat experience before the Grand Competition.
"Mm." Leng Youmeng nodded, then flipped her right hand, producing a Talisman and a Jade Slip.
"Here is a Thousand Movement Talisman and a Communication Jade Slip. If you encounter any danger that you cannot resolve, crush the Jade Slip immediately, and I will arrive as soon as possible."
Chen Yuan took the Thousand Movement Talisman and Communication Jade Slip, placing them into his Storage Ring.
"Outside, do not reveal your identity unless absolutely necessary, otherwise, it will not achieve the tempering effect."
Chen Yuan nodded, "This Disciple will remember!" He then bid farewell and left.
Upon reaching the door, Chen Yuan suddenly paused, turned back, and took out a jade pendant. The jade pendant resembled a fire Phoenix, and as soon as it was taken out, the temperature of the entire sleeping quarters rose by several degrees.
"Revered Master, this is a jade pendant I've worn since childhood. When I was young, I was cold and sickly, and it was terribly cold every night. This Fire Spirit Jade was sought by my mother for me, and I wouldn't feel cold when I wore it."
Chen Yuan handed the Fire Spirit Jade to Leng Youmeng, "Revered Master, your little hands are very cold. You must wear this with you at all times."
The young man's eyes were sincere, without a hint of falsehood.
Leng Youmeng numbly took the Fire Spirit Jade, looking into the young man's eyes, and a flicker of panic appeared in her usually calm gaze.
[Ding, Leng Youmeng's favorability increased by 7. Current favorability towards Host is 67.]
Chen Yuan left the sleeping quarters. Leng Youmeng looked at the jade pendant in her hand and cursed softly, "Fool!"
Because Leng Youmeng's hands and feet were cold due to her Physique. She possessed a dual Physique: Ice Saint Body and Primordial Spirit Body.

Chen Yuan landed at Ye Baixi's residence, then knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Soon after, the residence's main door opened.
Inside the room, after a moment of intimacy, Chen Yuan announced that he would be leaving for a while.
"Brother, please be safe on your journey."
"Don't worry, Baixi." Chen Yuan left a kiss and turned to leave.
Watching Chen Yuan's departing back, Ye Baixi felt a moment of trance.
Leaving Ye Baixi's residence, Chen Yuan's doubts suddenly arose because Ye Baixi was continuously providing him with emotional value at this moment.
"Oh no!" Chen Yuan slapped his forehead, then sniffed his clothes.
"There's Revered Master's scent on me, I was careless!"
Chen Yuan immediately turned back. In this cultivation world, it was normal for a man to have three or four Dao Companions, but Ye Baixi was relatively fragile. Chen Yuan was afraid she would be sad, and seeing his woman sad made Chen Yuan feel uncomfortable.
Ye Baixi was about to close the door when she saw Brother Chen Yuan return.
"Brother, why are you back again?" Ye Baixi poked her head out and asked curiously.
"Baixi, on my body..." Chen Yuan hesitated.
Ye Baixi pouted, somewhat aggrieved, "Brother, did you go to the brothel again? Are wild flowers better than me?"
"I'm sorry." Chen Yuan didn't know what to say.
"You don't need to apologize to me, I'm actually used to it," Ye Baixi said softly. As long as the man in front of her gave her a hint of tenderness, she couldn't help but fall for him.
Chen Yuan remembered that he used to go to brothels every month, and the Spirit Stones were all provided by little Baixi.
"Brother, you can find clean women. Can you stop going to brothels in the future?" Ye Baixi stepped forward, took Chen Yuan's hand, and whispered, "I'm not stopping you from finding younger ones. I'm just afraid others will call me a jealous woman if word gets out!"
"Baixi, I promise you, the position of the main wife will always belong to you." Chen Yuan extended his hand and pledged.
Such a solemn vow was enough to show Chen Yuan's determination.
Seeing this, Ye Baixi's heart swelled with sweetness, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Here, this is for you, a Thousand Movement Talisman, to be used as a last resort for escape." Chen Yuan finished speaking, forcefully pushing the Thousand Movement Talisman into her hand, not giving her a chance to refuse.
[Ding, detected Host gifted a Tier 3 Spirit Talisman, Thousand Movement Talisman, triggering a thousand-fold critical return.
Congratulations to Host for obtaining a Tier 5 Spirit Talisman: Myriad Movement Talisman.]
Chen Yuan rubbed her head, "Study sword techniques well with Senior Sister. If you enter the top ten in the Grand Competition, there will be a reward!"
Ye Baixi immediately looked forward to it, "What kind of reward?"
"…" Chen Yuan whispered a few words in her ear. Ye Baixi's calves went soft, and she fell into Chen Yuan's arms.
Ye Baixi's face turned red again, and she felt intensely hot all over.
"Brother, you should leave quickly! I'm going back!" After saying that, Ye Baixi immediately got up from Chen Yuan's embrace, ran back into the residence, and locked the main door.
Chen Yuan chuckled softly and flew towards the outside of the Sect.
Taking out his identity token, Chen Yuan smoothly exited the Xuantian Sect and arrived at Tianqing City at the foot of the mountain.
At midnight, Tianqing City was still bustling.
Chen Yuan arrived at the entrance of Jubao Chamber of Commerce and strode inside.
Jubao Chamber of Commerce is a place that sells Medicinal Pills. It is said that the influence of Jubao Chamber of Commerce spans the entire Xuanling Continent.
The quality of their Medicinal Pills is not much different from those in the Lingxuan Pavilion within the Sect.
However, the Medicinal Pills sold inside are cheaper than those in the Sect; Medicinal Pills in the Sect are ten times the price of Jubao Chamber of Commerce.
Because the main purchasing method is contribution points.
Chen Yuan's purpose here was simple: to purchase Medicinal Pills for unforeseen needs.
The Spirit Stones on him were all returned by the System. He had asked the System, and Medicinal Pills purchased with returned Spirit Stones could not trigger return rewards when given away, so Chen Yuan could only keep them for himself.
