Xue Tianfei stared blankly at the round moon in the sky, so complete. It was as if another piece of the puzzle had been added to her heart, and her heart began to beat faster.

How did you do that!

After they broke through to the Peak Great Emperor Realm, they all tried to ascend to the outer realm, but the outer realm was filled with extremely terrifying "Sha Qi", and no matter how they flew, they could not fly to a farther place.

If one were to forcibly traverse the boundless outer space, even Peak Great Emperor Realm would perish there!

And that moon is located in an extremely distant realm!

Just now, she clearly only closed her eyes for less than a breath.

this...

She stared blankly at the man in front of her.

Just how strong is he?!

"You're becoming more and more unpredictable." Xue Tianfei looked at Lu Qing'an, her lips slightly upturned, and the love in her eyes reached its peak at this moment.

"Do you like it?" Lu Qing'an asked.

Xue Tianfei nodded vigorously.

This was the best gift she had ever received.

There is none other than this!

However, she really wanted to know if Lu Qing'an's actions meant he already liked her...

She didn't know.

She wasn't the type to be coy, so she looked directly at Lu Qing'an and asked, "Qing'an, do you like me? Don't rush to answer."

Lu Qing'an was being stared at directly by Xue Tianfei Xue Tianfei. He could see the glimmer of expectation in her eyes, but he fell silent and looked directly into his own heart.

Has he already fallen in love with Xue Tianfei?

He didn't know...

After spending this time together, he truly looked at Xue Tianfei with new respect, feeling that she seemed different from the Xue Tianfei he had known before.

I don't know if it's a change in my State of Mind, or if I've become clearer about what I want after going through my last relationship.

He gazed quietly at the moon, and the image of his grandmother appeared in his mind once more.

Even after coming into this world, he remained all alone.

He really wanted a family, and after he finally got married and had three children, he felt that his life was gradually becoming more complete.

He cherishes this family very much.

He always firmly refused the system's temptations.

He knows he is not perfect.

Since returning to the Demon Domain, more and more people have come here, and he has finally found the answer he has always been looking for.

Xue Tianfei had become one of the answers in his heart.

Seeing that Lu Qing'an was deep in thought and seemed unable to find an answer, Xue Tianfei smiled faintly and said, "I actually have a very easy way to tell. Would you like to try it?"

She didn't want to pressure him.

I don't even want to see him in any difficult situation.

Because seeing him in a difficult situation makes her feel sorry for him...

Lu Qing'an looked at Xue Tianfei and nodded seriously. "Okay."

"I've heard that if you want to know if a man likes you, just lean on his shoulder and listen; a sound will tell you the answer." Xue Tianfei looked at Lu Qing'an, seeking Lu Qing'an consent with her eyes.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing'an pondered for a moment, then nodded.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xue Tianfei's eyes. She then turned her head and leaned closer, resting her head on Lu Qing'an's shoulder.

"Is there any sound?" Lu Qing'an knew this was Xue Tianfei's little trick, but he refrained from exposing it.

"Not for now... I'll listen a little longer." Xue Tianfei felt satisfied at this moment, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

"Good."

Under the moonlight, the two leaned against each other quietly, oblivious to the passage of time.

Not yet?

Xue Tianfei: "I'm a little confused... it seems like there isn't... Could I... listen a little longer?"

Lu Qing'an lowered her head slightly, looking at the darkness ahead, recalling what Xue Tianfei had done over the years. "Isn't it a little humble to like someone so much? Doesn't it hurt your heart?"

He felt that Xue Tianfei had been pursuing him for so many years, and that she had been too humble.

Recalling how he had treated Xue Tianfei in the past, he felt a pang of sympathy for her.

Upon hearing this, Xue Tianfei's heart skipped a beat. Her eyes softened, and after a long silence, she said, "I don't think it's humble at all."

Lu Qing'an shook his head and smiled.

In modern times, he would probably be called a sycophant by now.

Feeling the warmth on Lu Qing'an's shoulder, Xue Tianfei said gently, "I never thought that selfless love was a form of humility."

Lu Qing'an listened quietly.

"Actually, I think this is the rarest kind of courage in the world. The joy I feel because of you is the most precious gift you have given me."

Lu Qing'an stood there, stunned, after hearing Xue Tianfei's sincere words.

A gentle breeze swept by.

The world seemed to have been frozen in time.

Bang bang...

A sound shattered the frozen world.

"Was there any sound this time?" Lu Qing'an asked.

Xue Tianfei: "I need to listen a little longer."

"Okay, listen carefully."

As soon as Lu Qing'an finished speaking, Xue Tianfei's eyes widened. She looked up at Lu Qing'an's profile, and at that moment, Lu Qing'an turned his head and their eyes met.

Xue Tianfei's lips curved upwards.

This time... it seems like it's possible...

The following morning.

As dawn broke, a thin mist veiled the courtyard, the lingering fragrance of last night's passionate encounter still present.

The green bricks and gray tiles reflect the morning glow, red silk under the eaves sways gently in the wind, and dewdrops adorn the branches and leaves of the Demon God Mother Tree, sparkling like broken diamonds.

A pair of sparrows chirped in the bamboo grove, bringing life to the courtyard and filling the air with a sweet, honey-like fragrance.

Lu Miaomiao and the others woke up early.

Lu Miaomiao was particularly excited, followed by a pink puppy.

"Xiao Tian! Let's go! Time to go to school!"

Lu Qing'an was somewhat surprised to see that Lu Miaomiao was so eager to go to the academy.

It seems the daughter really likes this contracted beast.

"Miaomiao, wait a minute, Aunt Xue has something for you!" Xue Tianfei smiled and approached, squatting down in front of Lu Miaomiao.

"Aunt Xue, is there food again?"

"No, I had something delivered to you last night. Wear it; it's Devil Beast bracelet that can freely store and release Xiao Tian."

"Wow! This is something good! Thank you, Aunt Xue!! Aunt Xue, come closer, I want to give you a kiss!"

"Haha, come on, but you have to kiss both cheeks!"

"Uh-huh!"

Xiao Qingyi watched this scene from the side and nudged Lu Qing'an with his elbow.

"Oh ho, Xue Tianfei gets along so well with the child, what are you so happy about?"

"Which eye of yours saw me laughing?" Lu Qing'an quickly suppressed the faint smile hidden at the corner of his mouth, tilting his head to look at Xiao Qingyi indifferently.

"The left eye," Xiao Qingyi teased.

"Fine, then I'll gouge out your right eye."

Xiao Qingyi: "Wait, if you're going to gouge it out, shouldn't you be gouging out its left eye?"

Seeing Xiao Qingyi's curious look, Lu Qing'an said, "The right eye is obviously useless, so it won't matter if we gouge it out."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingyi instantly understood what Lu Qing'an meant.

Ha ha!

You little rascal, you've finally started to take a liking to Xue Tianfei!

This statement is tantamount to an admission!

Seeing Xiao Qingyi's delighted expression, Lu Qing'an smiled and said nothing more.

He had made up his mind; he had indeed begun to like this woman.
