When she turned around, she saw a black-clothed youth standing there, smiling gently at her.
"You—" Xiao Yixian's eyes reddened for an instant, then she quickly turned her head away.
"What's wrong? Angry at me?"Xiao Yan's warm voice flowed from behind. Xiao Yixian's body tensed for a moment, but she still refused to look back, clearly sulking.
"Heh…"Xiao Yan chuckled, stepping closer—only to be blocked by a sharp eagle cry.
The blue eagle glared at him with open hostility, as though it held a personal grudge against the human who had made its partner sad.
"Feathered mutt, if you weren't my girl's pet, I'd have roasted you already."Xiao Yan scoffed and flicked out a drop of Companion Amethyst Source from his Nàjiè.
The moment the drop appeared, the blue eagle's eyes lit up. Its hostile glare instantly shifted into eager flattery.
The "Purple Crystal Lion King milk powder" worked not only on the Swallowing Python—almost every magical beast found it irresistible.
"Scram and go play."Xiao Yan flicked his finger, sending the drop flying skyward.
The eagle abandoned its defensive stance at once and shot upward after its treat, leaving Xiao Yixian unguarded.
Clearing the obstacle, Xiao Yan finally approached her. Seeing how she still refused to face him, he suddenly wrapped an arm around her slender waist.
Xiao Yixian trembled as he pulled her close, then felt his chin come to rest on her shoulder.
"Sorry. Something came up, so I'm a little late."
His warm breath brushed her ear. Her tense body gradually softened.
"These days… I kept worrying you wouldn't come back…"Xiao Yixian leaned lightly against him.
Xiao Yan didn't speak. He simply held her, breathing in the faint medicinal fragrance mixed with her natural scent.
And upon closer sensing, he realized—her aura had already broken through to Dòu Shī.
"Come back to Jia Ma Imperial City with me."
"Huh?"
She blinked in surprise—then her face twisted with hesitation and awkwardness.
"Go to the Imperial City? Doesn't that mean meeting your… three wives and four concubines?"
"What 'three wives and four concubines'? They're your good sisters."
Xiao Yan replied with a perfectly straight face.
"I'm not going. I just want to plant herbs and study poisons in peace. I'm not joining any palace-drama nonsense."
She pouted proudly and turned her head away.
"There's no palace drama. I already found a big sister for you all. With her there, absolutely no 'palace fights' will ever happen."
Xiao Yan grinned mysteriously.
That "big sister" was still sleeping in his sleeve right now.
"Big sister?" Xiao Yixian froze—then bit her lip and pinched him viciously.
"You bastard! You really are trying to start a harem!"
"Jie jie…"Xiao Yan didn't argue. He simply scooped her up into his arms.
"What are you doing!?" she yelped.
"What do you think?"He chuckled lowly.
"It's broad daylight!"Her cheeks flushed crimson.
"So what? There's no one else here."
"No! I don't want to!"She shook her head frantically.
"Then are you coming back with me?"
"I'm not going!"
"Then don't blame Young Master Ben for using force."Xiao Yan shifted his grip, clearly ready for the next step.
Panic flashed in Xiao Yixian's eyes. She immediately grabbed his hand with both of hers, her clear gaze stubborn yet pleading.
"Xiao Yan… don't force me. I really don't like that kind of life."
"That won't do. If you don't go, how am I supposed to build the Yan Alliance Harem?"
Of course he didn't actually intend to drag her forcibly. Such a method might bring her to the Imperial City, but it would leave a wound in her heart—and that was something he would never do.
So, in the next instant, he changed his approach completely, looking at her with deep affection.
"Xian'er."
"…What?"His sudden gentleness nearly gave her goosebumps.
Xiao Yan wasn't surprised. Women often reacted with resistance at first to sweet words—but once they got used to the sweetness, a single day without it felt like something was missing.
"I want you to come to the Imperial City… not because I want to live with three palaces and six courtyards.I just want the first moment I arrive home… to be able to see you."
"You still have other women."She still complained, but her expression softened noticeably—and Xiao Yan noticed it instantly.
"I do have feelings for them. But you're different.In my heart, you're like a pure snow lotus. After seeing all the blooming flowers, that single snow lotus… is still the one that soothes the soul."
He didn't deny his flirtatious nature—instead he shifted the angle, emphasizing her importance.
"I…"Her snow-white cheeks turned faintly red, her gaze toward him turning gentle like flowing water.
Xiao Yan immediately followed up:
"Come back with me. I'll buy out a huge piece of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
We'll fill the whole valley with medicinal herbs. Whenever we're free, we can come back together for a few days."
"Xiao Yan…"Her heartbeat quickened. She wrapped her arms around his neck, eyes misty and full of affection.
"And near the Yunlan Sect, I'll buy another piece of land. Build a main residence beside the fields.Let me hide my precious girl in a golden house."
Xiao Yan smiled warmly.
Soft lips pressed against his.
"Didn't you say it's daytime?" Xiao Yan teased while carrying her into the little hut.
"You're horrible… If you keep teasing me I won't talk to you…"She glared, but her actions were even more proactive.
"Jie jie jie…"Xiao Yan stopped teasing and got to the real business.
An hour later, Xiao Yan sat by the window dressing himself, refreshed. Xiao Yixian lay under a thin blanket, her delicate body barely covered.
Her damp hair clung to her cheeks, giving off an intoxicating charm.
"That was so embarrassing…"Her face burned red. Doing something like that in broad daylight… she wanted to crawl into a hole.
How did she end up taking the initiative…This scumbag and his honeyed words were to blame!
"Heh…"Xiao Yan grinned at her shy appearance. He patted her lightly through the blanket.
"Get dressed. I'll introduce you to a new friend."
"New friend?"She blinked. After dressing, she turned—and her expression darkened instantly the moment Xiao Yan pulled Qing Lin out from his storage.
"Xiao Yan… you beast!"
