"With Ye Chen joining us, reviving the Tang Sect really can speed up, but we can recruit people slowly later. We didn't have to pick this day..." Bei Bei said quietly, clearly somewhat disappointed.
He was just one genius. In his eyes, that was not as important as his and Tang Ya's anniversary.
Reviving the Tang Sect could be done slowly.
But love was priceless!
No matter how much of a genius Ye Chen was, they could recruit him slowly later. Why did it have to be on this day?
Three years ago today, he had met Tang Ya outside Heaven Dou City.
Fate had brought the two of them together.
In his heart, this day could be said to be even more important than his own birthday...
However, no matter what, today was not over yet. There was still time to have dinner with Tang Ya.
Bei Bei had just been about to speak, but Tang Ya cut him off directly.
"All right, I'm tired. If there's nothing else, I'm going back to sleep. Stop bothering me."
Tang Ya waved her hand and quickly left.
"Xiaoya, I..."
Bei Bei opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but Tang Ya had already used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and vanished into the night.
"Damn it!! That damned Ye Chen!!"
Bei Bei clenched his fists tightly, and an inexplicable hostility toward that Ye Chen rose in his eyes!
If not for that guy, he should have been having dinner with Tang Ya today, being all lovey-dovey with Tang Ya. Maybe they could even have taken things a step further!
But... all of it had been ruined by that bastard Ye Chen!
If it had been any normal time, with such a genius joining the Tang Sect, he definitely would have felt happy for Tang Ya.
But now, he felt somewhat jealous and resentful...
Especially Ye Chen's talent, and the faintly admiring look in Tang Ya's eyes when she spoke of Ye Chen. It made him extremely unhappy!
Although Tang Ya merely admired Ye Chen.
He was a man, and Tang Ya was his girlfriend.
With Tang Ya admiring another man so much, it was only natural that dissatisfaction would grow in his heart.
"No, I have to keep an eye on Xiaoya during this period. I can't let her have contact with that Ye Chen again!"
Bei Bei secretly made up his mind. During this period, he had to watch Tang Ya closely.
He had a premonition that if Tang Ya and Ye Chen were allowed to keep interacting like this, something very bad might happen...
After Ye Chen separated from Tang Ya, he went to the Inner Court.
For today, he would not look for Wang Dong to cultivate first.
He also had to look after Ma Xiaotao's mood.
After all, the previous Ma Xiaotao had stopped cultivating, so her Evil Fire had not grown very quickly. Even Xu Sanshi could suppress it.
But now Ma Xiaotao was cultivating crazily. A huge amount of Evil Fire accumulated every day, and it had to be cleared once every two or three days.
Ye Chen had to go back and take a look, lest Ma Xiaotao get too fired up.
He knew the way well. He entered the Inner Court and returned to Ma Xiaotao's courtyard.
Ye Chen had thought Ma Xiaotao would already be asleep this late, only to discover that the lights in the hall were still on.
"Sister Xiaotao?"
Ye Chen pushed the door open and walked in, calling softly.
Sure enough, Ma Xiaotao had not slept yet.
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao was sitting in the hall, propping up her chin and staring blankly.
Beside her was a glass of red wine, along with several empty bottles. Clearly, she had drunk quite a lot.
"Mm? You're back?"
Ma Xiaotao noticed the movement at the door and raised her brows slightly. There was a trace of pleasant surprise in her tone, but even more laziness.
Paired with the two patches of blush on her cheeks, she was clearly a little muddled from drinking.
"Sister Xiaotao, you're drunk. Drinking at night isn't good for your body."
Ye Chen walked over and sat beside Ma Xiaotao, though he kept some distance between them.
Of course, what Ye Chen meant by bad for the body was that drinking affected sleep, and it might affect Ma Xiaotao's condition tomorrow.
Although Soul Masters had powerful physiques, their spirits were still very fragile in that regard. If they did not sleep well, they would still seem weary the next day.
"Mm... come closer. It's not like I'll eat you."
Seeing that Ye Chen did not understand at all and had actually sat so far away, Ma Xiaotao glared at him somewhat unhappily.
But because she had been drinking, that look carried an inexplicable charm and cuteness.
"Oh, oh..."
Ye Chen appeared extremely obedient and sat down beside Ma Xiaotao.
"Mm, that's more like it, junior brother~"
Without another word, Ma Xiaotao grabbed Ye Chen's head and pressed it into her embrace.
Feeling the cold air radiating from Ye Chen's body, Ma Xiaotao immediately revealed a satisfied smile.
Ye Chen's martial soul was so powerful that just by getting close to him, the Evil Fire in her body could continuously pour into Ye Chen through the places where the two of them touched, then be neutralized by the other party's ice-attribute aura.
"Mm, comfortable~"
The corners of Ma Xiaotao's mouth curled up. The Evil Fire in her body slowly flowed away, and together with Ye Chen's soft fragrance, it instantly made her feel incomparably at ease.
As her mind relaxed, Ma Xiaotao, who had already been sleepy, began to grow drowsy.
"Sister Xiaotao..."
Ye Chen's muffled voice came from Ma Xiaotao's chest.
Ma Xiaotao was clearly preparing to sleep, so she only wore a thin nightgown, with nothing inside...
Although it was very fragrant, it was also a little stuffy.
Only when Ye Chen saw Ma Xiaotao loosen her hold a little did he raise his head.
Because of the movement, Ma Xiaotao's entire body leaned against Ye Chen, and she nearly fell over.
"Sister Xiaotao, how can you just fall asleep like that..."
He hurriedly held Ma Xiaotao.
With the two of them pressed together, the sensation naturally became even clearer.
"Mm... send me back to my room..." Ma Xiaotao muttered softly, so sleepy that she could not even open her eyes.
"All right, all right. Honestly, why did you drink so much..."
Ye Chen was helpless. He reached out, supported Ma Xiaotao by the butt, and walked toward the room.
Because Ma Xiaotao was like that, Ye Chen's palm touched Ma Xiaotao's skin directly.
Ye Chen could see Ma Xiaotao's ears turning red at a visible speed, even looking as if they were about to start steaming.
Ye Chen pretended not to notice and quickly carried Ma Xiaotao into the room, gently placing her on her soft, large bed.
"Sister Xiaotao, it's time to rest."
Ye Chen gently patted Ma Xiaotao, wanting her to loosen the hand hooked around his neck.
"Mm-hmm... rest...~"
Ma Xiaotao seemed to mutter in dissatisfaction, then exerted a little strength and pulled Ye Chen straight over.
"Sister Xiaotao, I..."
Before Ye Chen could even open his mouth, the quilt had already been pulled over them.
Ye Chen: ...
The next morning.
Ye Chen woke up in a daze, a familiar scent reaching the tip of his nose.
He had slept so comfortably last night that he had even forgotten the time.
Ye Chen sat up and found that he was still on Ma Xiaotao's bed.
Ma Xiaotao still had some conscience. She had not thrown him out...
Ma Xiaotao's room was still very clean and tidy. It had probably been tidied up before.
Ye Chen lifted the quilt, and his palm touched something smooth.
He looked down and saw that it was the satin nightdress Ma Xiaotao had worn last night.
"Honestly, she doesn't even know to put her clothes away..."
Ye Chen picked up the nightdress and toyed with it in his arms. It was cool and smooth, with an incredibly nice feel.
"It must be really cool to wear," Ye Chen thought to himself.
"Click~"
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Ma Xiaotao's head poked in. "Xiaochen, time to get up. Big sister made your favori..."
Ma Xiaotao's voice stopped abruptly.
