A Night Talk with Yun Yun
[Not long after, Gu He received news that the Heavenly Flames had appeared in the Tagor Desert and began to recruit people. You and Yun Yun applied, Nalan Yanran also wanted to go.]
In order to gain sufficient strength, Nalan Yanran began arduous training, and even went to the Life-and-Death Gate of the Misty Cloud Sect ahead of schedule.
The Life-and-Death Gate and Death is the final test for the successor of the Misty Cloud Sect Master before becoming the sect leader. Originally, only those with at least the strength of the Dou Ling level could enter.
With your help using the Heavenly Flames, Nalan Yanran not only entered ahead of schedule but also quickly refined the special inherited energy within the Life-and-Death Gate of the Misty Cloud Sect, resulting in a dramatic increase in her strength and advancement to the Peak Dou Wang level.
[Besides cultivating with Nalan Yanran, you occasionally visit Yun Yun, but mostly at night.]
The bright moon in the night sky was exceptionally dazzling. Most of the Misty Cloud Sect members, exhausted from a long day, had already rested, while a few were still diligently cultivating. Therefore, even the slightest sound would be heard very loudly.
However, there were no other Misty Cloud Sect members around the back mountain where Yun Yun lived, so any commotion there would go unnoticed unless it was particularly loud.
When Xiao Yan arrived at the back mountain, he heard the sound of water. If he listened more carefully, he could guess that it was the sound of someone taking a bath.
Xiao Yan naturally knew that Yun Yun lived alone here, but an irresistible temptation led Xiao Yan to the window where the sound of bathing was coming from.
Just as Xiao Yan had imagined, the person taking a bath was none other than Yun Yun, the sect leader of the Yun Yun Misty Cloud Sect.
He quietly approached the window and peered through it. He saw that the steam emanating from the bathtub made the room somewhat hazy.
Even though Xiao Yan had excellent eyesight, he couldn't see clearly what was going on inside. After using his pupil technique, he regretfully discovered that he seemed to have arrived a little too late.
Yun Yun had already tied her moon-white bodice and was wearing a thin, gauze-like nightgown. She walked lightly towards her huge dressing table.
What Xiao Yan found somewhat strange was that Yun Yun was actually quite vain, standing in front of the dressing table in a daze.
Yun Yun carefully examined the perfect lines of her delicate body in the huge bronze mirror on the dressing table.
The bronze mirror reflected a graceful and elegant woman, dressed so lightly that it would surely arouse any man's fantasies.
Yun Yun's appearance was like that of a celestial being; her beauty fully displayed the mature charm of her age.
Because she wasn't wearing her Sea Heart Inner Armor, her surging aura was unmistakable, but despite her power, she showed no signs of faltering; her skin was as delicate and smooth as her face.
When Yun Yun looked down again, her lower body still maintained that slender, snake-like waist.
After her trip to the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Yun Yun discovered that her already excellent figure had now reached the perfect level of being "too fat for an inch, too thin for an inch."
Having undergone more extensive adornment, Yun Yun possessed a mature charm that Nalan Yanran could not match at the time. Moreover, having taught Nalan Yanran for many years, despite never having had children, she had developed a special quality that made men's hearts flutter.
Yun Yun looked at herself in the bronze mirror with great satisfaction. Thinking of Xiao Yan's fanatical infatuation in the cave, a faint warmth rose in her heart, as if the special sealing effect of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King hadn't yet dissipated.
After returning to the Misty Cloud Sect, she had not had any contact with Xiao Yan for a long time.
However, Yun Yun often visits her disciple Nalan Yanran.
The emergence of resentful women is not without reason.
After bathing, Yun Yun felt a natural heat after maturing, as if she had been sealed again, a feeling she had never experienced before.
Yun Yun felt somewhat uncomfortable with this feeling.
However, what Yun Yun didn't know was that Xiao Yan was watching her every move very clearly.
With a flash, Xiao Yan appeared silently behind Yun Yun like a ghost, grabbing Yun Yun delicate hand that was searching for something.
"Teacher Yun Yun, it seems you need some help?" Xiao Yan said with a smile.
The sudden sound startled Yun Yun, especially when Xiao Yan grasped her delicate hand, which she was about to use to investigate something.
"Xiao Yan, why aren't you with Yanran at this time? What are you doing here?" Yun Yun said softly, then, realizing she was wearing rather casual pajamas, she quickly added, "Xiao Yan, close your eyes and don't look at me."
Yun Yun blushed with embarrassment. Xiao Yan looked at her shy and charming demeanor, which was just like that of the young girl Nalan Yanran. It was completely different from her usual dignified, virtuous, aloof, and inviolable image. She was extremely charming.
"It's not like we haven't seen it before." Xiao Yan helped Yun Yun, whose body was feeling weak and powerless, and walked to the large bed next to her, where he casually sat down as well.
Yun Yun was powerless to refute, and glared at Xiao Yan, for that was not what she wanted.
"What are you doing here?" Yun Yun asked again.
"Teacher Yun Yun, you don't know, Yanran needs to rest recently." Xiao Yan glanced at Yun Yun's legs, which had returned to their fair state, and said casually.
Yun Yun quickly figured out what was going on, and looking at Xiao Yan right beside her, she couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
Yun Yun exchanged a glance with Xiao Yan. Although nothing had actually happened yet, she had a premonition and felt a bit scared. She quickly reminded him, "Xiao Yan, no! I am Nalan Yanran's teacher. We can't continue down this wrong path!"
Xiao Yan gazed tenderly at the languid, mature beauty, gently brushing away a few strands of hair covering her face. "During the Magical Beast Mountain Range, how could Teacher Yun Yun forget her identity?"
Yun Yun thought of what had happened earlier, and her heart suddenly pounded wildly.
Although Yun Yun was somewhat reluctant, everything fell into place almost effortlessly under your firm stance.
You woke up feeling refreshed in Yun Yun's room.
[Several days later, you went to the Tagor Desert as an advance team to investigate the situation of the Heavenly Flames for Pill King Gu He and the others.]
Contrary to everyone's expectations, after arriving in the Tagor Desert, you went straight to the Magma World where the Green Lotus Core Flame grew.
Looking at the Green Lotus Seat and the Earthfire Lotus Seeds that Medusa hadn't taken away, you shook your head, then carried both of them away, along with the vines that could grow the Green Lotus Core Flame.
If the Green Lotus Core Flame were to grow on its own without artificial cultivation, the process would take over a thousand years, which would be a nightmare for Alchemist who desperately need Heavenly Flames.
[Continuously accelerating the growth of the Green Lotus Core Flame, as Eighth-Rank Alchemist, you now possess methods to expedite Green Lotus Core Flame development through external forces.]
