Xiao Chuan's fingertips slowly wandered over Yun Yun's delicate body. She lightly bit her red lips and closed her eyes.

"Recover from your injuries quickly, or I'll be too embarrassed to make a move." Xiao Chuan did not continue teasing Yun Yun. After all, her injuries were still quite shocking to look at.

Yun Yun seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. She had thought he was about to begin, but fortunately, nothing happened.

But she knew Xiao Chuan would not let her off. She had merely made it through one day; there were still three more days ahead...

Over the next few days, Xiao Chuan continuously refined the Companion Amethyst Source. Finally, on the third day, he cultivated the Purple Flame.

"Such a tiny Purple Flame—easy to handle!"

Xiao Chuan spread his palm, and a purple flame appeared in it. "With this flame, making pills should be much easier!"

To test its effects, he deliberately refined pills in front of Yun Yun—and he was refining a Tier 6 Medicinal Pill!

Xiao Chuan was merely testing the waters, so he refined an ordinary Tier 6 pill. It was not particularly difficult, and the required ingredients were common.

But Yun Yun could not remain calm.

As the leader of a sect and a Dou Emperor Expert, she could tell from the ingredients he had taken out that Xiao Chuan was refining an ordinary Tier 6 healing pill.

Yun Yun had never expected Xiao Chuan to be an alchemist—and a Tier 6 Alchemist at such a young age!!

With the boost from the Purple Flame, Xiao Chuan refined the Tier 6 Medicinal Pill with ease. After two hours, the pill was complete.

Yun Yun smelled the medicinal fragrance wafting from the pill furnace and already knew that this batch was about to succeed.

Before long, Xiao Chuan took out the pill inside. It was green, with a rich medicinal fragrance.

"You're a Tier 6 Alchemist?" Although Yun Yun had already seen it, she still wanted Xiao Chuan to answer in person.

Xiao Chuan nodded and walked over with the pill. "This pill can help you recover from your injuries faster."

"Thank you." Yun Yun accepted the pill Xiao Chuan handed her and put it into her mouth without the slightest hesitation.

The powerful medicinal energy spread through her body, acting upon every injured part and continuously repairing her wounds.

After two days of recuperation, Yun Yun's injuries had already improved. With this pill, she was nearly fully recovered.

Xiao Chuan yawned. "Take your time refining the medicinal energy. I'll go out for a walk and catch some game to bring back for dinner."

Watching him leave, Yun Yun did not know why, but she felt that Xiao Chuan was not as bad as she had imagined.

Yet sometimes, she felt that Xiao Chuan was annoyingly shameless and deliberately liked to tease her.

After Xiao Chuan left, Yun Yun sat cross-legged and guided the medicinal energy to heal her injuries. After a long while, she finally finished absorbing it.

It had grown dark outside, and Xiao Chuan still had not returned. She decided to wash up in the river first.

Whenever Xiao Chuan was around, Yun Yun did not dare bathe alone, afraid that he would catch her off guard.

Now that he was not nearby, she could take a bath first before returning and make herself more comfortable.

After a while, Yun Yun came to the river alone. The current here was slow and the water was crystal clear, making it perfect for bathing.

She glanced around and, seeing no movement, decisively removed her clothes and stepped into the river.

The moon hung high in the sky, its light making the lake's surface shimmer.

Bathed in the moonlight, Yun Yun looked like a fairy in the lake.

After washing for quite some time, she rose to leave, since Xiao Chuan should be returning soon.

But before Yun Yun could climb ashore, someone grabbed her fragrant shoulder from behind, making her delicate body tremble all over.

"Your husband shouldn't be home. Now it's just the two of us." Xiao Chuan's voice sounded beside Yun Yun's ear.

Before Yun Yun could react, he picked her up and carried her to a huge boulder by the riverbank.

"Bend over."

Though Yun Yun was extremely embarrassed, she still obeyed Xiao Chuan and placed both hands on the huge boulder.

Under the moonlight, the lake reflected the silhouettes of two people, while the sound of water rang out in a steady rhythm.

Yun Yun gripped the boulder with both hands, slowly digging her fingers into the stone. Chips of rock fell away one after another.

Who knew how much time passed.

A large section of the rock's surface had fallen away where Yun Yun had been gripping it, as though it had suffered a heavy blow.

After Xiao Chuan climbed ashore from the lakeside, Yun Yun was still submerged in the river, apparently too embarrassed to come up.

"I'll wait for you in the cave."

"Mm..." Yun Yun answered softly, watching Xiao Chuan vanish into the night.

The cave was filled with the aroma of roasted meat. Xiao Chuan sat by the campfire, roasting meat while drying clothes.

Before long, Yun Yun slowly returned to the cave. Even when she sat down, she still felt a faint ache.

Xiao Chuan picked up the cooked meat and handed it to Yun Yun beside him. "Eat it while it's hot. Replenish the strength you lost."

Yun Yun shot Xiao Chuan a glare, then accepted the roast and began eating. She truly had no strength left and needed food badly.

As he continued roasting, Xiao Chuan said, "You'll be free tomorrow. Happy?"

Yun Yun fell silent for a while before asking, "After this is over, can you spare the Misty Cloud Sect?"

"I'm very satisfied with your performance." Xiao Chuan nodded. "As long as your Misty Cloud Sect doesn't court death, I won't touch it."

Yun Yun inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. Her sacrifices had been rewarded, so it had not been for nothing.

It was just that she had sacrificed rather a lot.

"I also let an old woman like you experience a male model." Xiao Chuan looked at her meaningfully. "You made a killing."

Yun Yun gritted her silver teeth, not knowing how to refute him.

"I'm still not satisfied. You know what to do tonight, right?"

"I... can't anymore." Yun Yun felt that tonight was definitely impossible. That had already been her limit.

"That's not a problem." Xiao Chuan smiled at her. "As long as your mind doesn't slip, there are always more solutions than difficulties."

Yun Yun felt that Xiao Chuan had ill intentions, as though he were planning something, but she could not see through him.

Night fell. In the quiet cave, only the crackling of firewood could be heard.

Yun Yun sat cross-legged with her eyes closed. When she sensed Xiao Chuan walking over from the campfire, her heart leaped into her throat, immediately reminding her of what had happened by the river.

"I know you can't do that anymore, but I have other methods." Xiao Chuan looked at Yun Yun. "Do you have any other clothes in your Storage Ring?"

Others cosplayed Sect Master Yun Yun of the Misty Cloud Sect, but Yun Yun before him only needed to play her own role well.

"I don't know how."

"I can teach you. You only need to master a few things." Xiao Chuan taught Yun Yun the essentials, such as how wide she needed to open, when to exert force, and when to swallow.

All night long.

Yun Yun did not sleep.

But Xiao Chuan enjoyed himself immensely. No cosplay could compare to the original; this was the real Yun Yun.

Everything he had done before had been preparation. Now Yun Yun was willingly doing these things.

Wasn't that much better than forcing her?

Xiao Chuan had Yun Yun firmly under control, but the Three-Day Trial Card was about to expire. He would have to wait until he reached the Dou Emperor realm in the future.

He did not even want to stay the night. If Yun Yun decided to die with him, he might not be able to escape unscathed.

Taking advantage of the perfect night, Xiao Chuan had already left the cave. As for what Yun Yun thought of him, he did not care. All that mattered was that he had enjoyed himself.
