I'll Have My Way with You

Upon hearing her own name, Yun Yun's exquisite face visibly showed a trace of unease. However, she quickly recovered and continued softly, "I have indeed heard of that Sect Leader Yun, but I do not know her."

"I see. Since you both share the surname Yun, I thought you might be sisters. Miss Yun carries herself with such noble grace; you must usually be someone of considerable status," Lin Mu said with a smile.

Yun Yun remained silent.

Who exactly is he? Why is he probing me at every turn?

Though puzzled, Yun Yun still smiled and shook her head. "It is merely a personal habit. It seems you are quite interested in that Sect Leader Yun?"

"Though I am not from the Jiamar Empire, Miss Yun surely knows that, within this empire, who would not be interested in Sect Leader Yun? I heard that even Gu He is deeply devoted to her."

Lin Mu's teasing words caused Yun Yun's expression to shift slightly.

Gu He? Although I know what he feels, I have only ever regarded him as a friend.

Lin Mu let out a faint sigh.

"I have long heard of the Misty Cloud Sect's great name. Sooner or later, I will pay it a visit and have Yun Shan come out to fight me."

Yun Yun was startled.

Yun Shan?

Lin Mu wanted to challenge Yun Shan?

As Yun Shan's disciple, Yun Yun knew better than anyone that Yun Shan had completely entered seclusion and was attempting to break through to the Dou Zong realm. Even if Yun Shan failed to advance, his strength would still far surpass that of an ordinary Peak Dou Emperor.

And Lin Mu actually wanted to challenge him?

"The previous sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect is already a Peak Dou Emperor. Rumor has it that he is about to enter the Dou Zong realm. Isn't it too early for you to challenge him with your current strength?"

Yun Yun asked.

"Indeed. It is too early," Lin Mu nodded.

Yun Yun quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she knew Lin Mu could not possibly be a match for her master, she did not wish to see the man who had saved her life injured in a battle against him.

"I should wait until he stabilizes his Dou Zong realm before going. Going now would be too soon. People might say I was bullying him."

Lin Mu grinned.

Yun Yun: "..."

Yun Yun was speechless. She had never seen someone this foolish before. Did he truly not know how terrifying a Dou Zong expert was?

"Alright, get some rest." Lin Mu rose and headed outside.

"What are you going to do?" Yun Yun asked.

"Obviously, get food. I do not want to starve to death here." Lin Mu rolled his eyes.

Halfway there, Lin Mu turned back and reminded Yun Yun, "Oh, right. I suggest you do not wander around."

"?"

Seeing Yun Yun's puzzled expression, Lin Mu said helplessly, "The Monster Beast Mountain Range is huge, but a decent cave is actually hard to find, so this cave..."

"What about this cave?" Yun Yun clearly had not caught on yet.

"I only got it after kicking a group of He Yuan out. I reckon those fellows are waiting outside the cave right now. It is fine if I go out, but if you go out..."

"Tut, tut. If those He Yuan have their way with you, they will definitely have a good time."

Yun Yun finally understood what Lin Mu meant, and her face instantly flushed crimson. "You!"

"Hahaha, take this. It will protect you."

With a casual wave of his hand, Lin Mu sent the Purple Spirit Sword falling in front of Yun Yun, then walked out.

"No wonder this place is filled with such a strange smell. It turns out to be a He Yuan nest..."

She had not noticed it earlier, but now Yun Yun felt her stomach churn at the thought of this place. She had heard of He Yuan before. She simply could not imagine how miserable the fate of a woman without any ability to resist would be if she fell into their hands.

"That guy is truly annoying." Remembering Lin Mu's punchable expression from earlier, Yun Yun could not help clenching her fists.

But thinking carefully about it, Lin Mu had looked rather handsome when he saved her. He did not seem bad-looking either...

What am I thinking...

Yun Yun hurriedly patted her cheeks to clear her head, then found it somewhat amusing. After cultivating for so many years, was she actually starting to pine for a man? Yun Yun hastily cast those thoughts aside and grabbed the Purple Spirit Sword before her.

"What a unique weapon. And this aura it gives off... why does it feel so familiar..."

Sensing the aura emanating from the Purple Spirit Sword, Yun Yun seemed to realize something. "Is it the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's Purple Spirit Crystal? Could Lin Mu's sword have been forged from Purple Spirit Crystal?"

"No wonder the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King kept shouting earlier about someone trying to steal the Purple Spirit Sword again. So he was taking his anger toward Lin Mu out on me."

Yun Yun felt somewhat helpless. She set down the Purple Spirit Sword and looked around again, only to drift off to sleep in a daze.

After a long while, Yun Yun slowly woke up. A fragrant scent drifted over, and she instinctively looked toward its source. There was Lin Mu, with a pile of appetizing food laid out before him.

"You really dared to sleep here? Weren't you afraid a He Yuan might come in?" Lin Mu teased.

Yun Yun awkwardly twisted the corner of her clothes. Earlier, drowsiness had washed over her, and she had fallen asleep without being able to control herself. Fortunately, nothing had happened in the end.

"Eat."

Lin Mu stood and handed Yun Yun some food.

Yun Yun accepted it and began eating in small bites. Gradually, she stopped being so reserved and began wolfing it down. Though someone at the Dou Emperor level no longer needed much food, her body was currently extremely weak, making her especially hungry. Or perhaps Lin Mu's cooking really was that good. Leaning against the side, Lin Mu suddenly could not help laughing.

"What is it?" Yun Yun raised her head, her lips still glistening with oil.

Lin Mu gave a mischievous smile and reached out to wipe the grease from the corner of Yun Yun's mouth. "I was simply curious. The usually noble and elegant Sect Leader Yun Yun actually has a moment when she eats without a care for her image."

"You..."

Yun Yun stared at Lin Mu in surprise. "You... know who I am?"

"I have known for a long time. I have met people from the Misty Cloud Sect before, and besides, you are hardly an unknown person. Was it not very easy to recognize you?"

Lin Mu nodded.

Recalling how disgracefully she had wolfed down the food just now, Yun Yun felt a wave of embarrassment and could not help lowering her head. Yet in the end, she could not resist the hunger gnawing at her body and continued eating Lin Mu's food, occasionally raising her head to see whether Lin Mu was still watching her...

Just then, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's voice suddenly rang out nearby. "Human, there is already a lead on the thing you need."
