283: Chapter 283 Don't Take It Randomly

Master Shen Xi gently waved her jade hand, and a dazzling holy light flashed. Ye Xuan's previously damaged, handsome face instantly returned to normal.

"It's finally better. Thank you, Master."

A grateful smile appeared on Ye Xuan's face, and his deep eyes were currently focused intently on his Master's beautiful, veiled face.

"It's a small matter, don't give it another thought."

Master Shen Xi lowered her beautiful eyes, not daring to meet Ye Xuan's gaze, a feeling of guilt involuntarily welling up in her heart. After all, she had deliberately let Ye Xuan endure an extra quarter of an hour of pain just moments ago.

Ye Xuan did not seem to notice Master Shen Xi's unusual behavior; he lay comfortably on Master Shen Xi's lap, his eyes revealing a hint of laziness.

"Master, could you take back Little Moon's juexian sword? Or perhaps grant me a celestial sword instead?"

His voice was low and magnetic, as if carrying an invisible charm.

Master Shen Xi was slightly stunned. The juexian sword was Little Bai's life-bound profound artifact, so naturally, she could not easily take it back.

But seeing Ye Xuan's expectant gaze, a feeling of tenderness could not help but well up in her heart.

"The juexian sword is Qingluan's treasure; as your Master, I cannot take it back arbitrarily. However, once your cultivation reaches the King Profound Realm, that God-Devouring Spear will be available for your initial use."

After speaking, Master Shen Xi's beautiful eyes, which were brimming with a charming luster, flickered gently, and the corners of her mouth lifted into a doting smile.

After healing Ye Xuan's cheek, her slender jade hand did not move away; instead, it involuntarily and slowly caressed Ye Xuan's extraordinarily handsome and heart-stirring face.

Feeling the gentle caress of Master Shen Xi's fingers, a wave of warmth surged in Ye Xuan's heart.

He quietly enjoyed this moment of tranquility and gentleness, while secretly swearing in his heart that he must work hard on his cultivation, reach the King Profound Realm as soon as possible, and become a powerhouse capable of fighting alongside Master Shen Xi.

"The God-Devouring Spear?"

Hearing this name, a smile immediately appeared on the corner of Ye Xuan's mouth, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart.

After all, he happened to possess an unparalleled divine weapon named the zhu xian sword. Although it wasn't as mighty as the juexian sword for the time being, Ye Xuan knew he would become even stronger.

"I will be going into secluded meditation to cultivate soon."

Master Shen Xi raised her head slightly, her beautiful eyes shimmering with light. She gently stroked Ye Xuan's star-like brows, her gaze staring deeply into his deep eyes.

"Master, are you going to take that step?"

Ye Xuan's heart stirred. He knew well that his Master's current cultivation had already reached the tenth level of the Saint Realm; if she took another step, it would be the Great Emperor Realm or the Supreme Realm.

"Hmm... you could say that. To truly become a Great Emperor, one still needs to wait for the arrival of the Great Era, or for that Great Emperor of the Jiang family to fall."

Master Shen Xi's beautiful eyes rippled with a faint charm, and her voice was soft yet firm, as if containing endless wisdom and power.

A look of curiosity and confusion appeared on Ye Xuan's handsome face. His gaze quickly swept over his Master's pretty, veiled face, while also taking the opportunity to admire the mountain peaks that towered into the clouds.

"Then, when will the Great Era mentioned by Master actually arrive?"

He asked eagerly, his eyes filled with longing and anticipation for the unknown world.

"If only it were possible..."

Ye Xuan pondered secretly in his heart; if he could gently press his cheek against them, what a wonderful feeling that would be! It was a pity, however, that he knew his Master had a fierce temperament. If he were the slightest bit careless, he might suffer an attack from her sharp palm wind, so he could only steal glances longingly, not daring to act rashly.

"As for the exact time, even I cannot be certain, but I estimate it will be within this century."

Master Shen Xi said softly.

"The Great Era is both a rare opportunity and accompanied by endless crises. Pretty Boy, you must cultivate diligently and never let feelings of slackness arise. You must not let side distractions delay your cultivation progress. After all, beautiful women are like passing clouds and smoke; even if they are as beautiful as celestial beings, they still cannot escape the ravages of time and will eventually turn into white bones. Rather than indulging in romantic entanglements, it would be better to abandon them completely for a freer and more carefree life."

Master Shen Xi's immortal voice lingered, and she earnestly exhorted Ye Xuan.

Her words seemed to hide a deeper meaning, faintly revealing a hint of warning.

However, Ye Xuan did not notice anything unusual, remaining immersed in his own world.

"Master, please rest assured. Your disciple will definitely do his utmost to search for immortal pills and miraculous medicines that can increase longevity, not only to let you, Master, attain immortality."

Ye Xuan smiled and rattled off a long list of names of people with close relationships to him: "I also want to let Little Moon, Senior Sister Holy Lord Xu Yan, Junior Niece Qingzhu, Qianxi, Fatty Murong, and a whole host of other relatives and friends share the blessing of eternal life."

However, as the topic deepened, Ye Xuan noticed that the smile in his Master's beautiful eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a coldness that struck fear into his heart.

"Pretty Boy!"

Master Shen Xi's immortal voice rang out, mixed with a slight sigh.

When she heard that long list of names, a slight pain could not help but well up in her heart, accompanied by a feeling of blockage; it was exceptionally uncomfortable.

Among these names, there were both people she knew and strangers, but every single name touched a soft corner deep within her heart.

"Leave now; I need to go into secluded meditation."

Master Shen Xi's immortal voice suddenly became bone-chillingly cold, like ten-thousand-year-old ice, making Ye Xuan's whole body feel cold.

If her treatment of Ye Xuan had been like a warm and pleasant spring day before, then at this moment, it was like a bitterly cold winter day!

She gently raised her jade hand, moved Ye Xuan's head, which had been resting on her jade legs, away, and then her delicate body elegantly stood up from the soft couch.

She seemed a bit annoyed; she moved to the window, her beautiful eyes gazing at the rolling clouds in the nine heavens, completely ignoring Ye Xuan.

"Oh no, how did I let that slip out!" Ye Xuan was immediately filled with regret, wishing he could give himself a few loud slaps.

He had actually let it slip! Just a moment ago, he had been too immersed in the warm and peaceful atmosphere of being with his Master, completely failing to display his proper level of intelligence. At this moment, he simply wished he could slap himself hard, because he had angered his Master once again.

"Master, this disciple knows he was wrong! In the future, this disciple will only search for longevity medicine for you alone!"

Ye Xuan's thick skin came in handy at this moment. He did not obediently roll out as usual; instead, braving that bone-chilling cold aura, he walked behind his Master, and then, without hesitation, stretched out his arms and tightly hugged Master Shen Xi.

"Rebellious disciple, let me go quickly! Are you not afraid that I will strike you down with one palm?"

Her jade back pressed tightly against Ye Xuan's solid and broad chest, and she could even faintly feel the strong and powerful beating of his heart. Master Shen Xi could not help but show a shy expression, her crisp and pleasant immortal voice rang out, and at the same time, she issued a warning to Ye Xuan.

However, her body trembled slightly, attempting to break free from Ye Xuan's embrace, but Ye Xuan held her tightly like iron pliers, refusing to let go in the slightest.
