Ever since saving Yun Yun, Mo Yu had paid much more attention to the security and safety around the cave.
His gaze constantly swept around. During this period, the Demonic Beasts within the Magical Beast Mountain Range had become noticeably more restless. Fortunately, the aura released by the Vermillion Bird Sky-Burning Lightning had a miraculous effect.
Although Demonic Beasts occasionally appeared nearby, upon sensing the Soul-trembling aura, they would quickly leave. Thus, the two had not been discovered these past few days.
Returning to the cave, he saw Yun Yun, who had been lying on the stone bed, now resting her chin on her hand, leisurely sitting on a stone slab. Seeing Mo Yu return, she couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "You're back."
Nodding faintly, Mo Yu took out a few rabbits he had caught in the dense forest from his storage ring, sat down, lit a fire, and casually asked, "How are your injuries?"
Yun Yun stood up slightly, bringing with her a faint fragrance, and came to Mo Yu's side. With a slight frown, she sighed softly, "The external injuries are not serious, but the Seal technique on my body will take at least a few more days to undo."
"Hmm, then you should rest here for a few days. It's very safe nearby," Mo Yu said while roasting the rabbit and looking at Yun Yun, who was dressed in a green outfit.
Since her original plain dress was torn, she was now wearing Mo Yu's clothes, exuding a free and transcendent aura.
Sitting down gracefully, Yun Yun's beautiful eyes stared at Mo Yu, who was roasting the rabbit meat, a hint of curiosity flashing within them. She said, "You're quite bold. With the strength of a Dou Shi, you dare to venture deep into the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Which family's Disciple are you? I haven't seen a Genius like you in the Jiama Empire."
Hearing this, Mo Yu did not hide anything and said, "I couldn't help it, I was chased here. As for my identity, I am Mo Yu of the Xiao Family in Wutan City."
Upon hearing Mo Yu's words, Yun Yun's eyebrows furrowed, and then she seemed to recall something, speaking softly, "The Xiao Family from Wutan City? Then is there also a young man in your clan named Xiao Yan, who had great talent when he was young but later his Cultivation gradually regressed?"
Seeing that Yun Yun seemed unaware that Xiao Yan had recovered his talent, Mo Yu was also surprised. He then thought that as the Sect Master of the Cloud Mist Sect, she was busy with countless matters and it was normal for her not to concern herself with such minor affairs.
Mo Yu felt there was no need to hide his identity, as he wouldn't be going to the Cloud Mist Sect for the three-year agreement anyway.
Flipping the rabbit meat in his hand, Mo Yu nodded and said, "That's right, Xiao Yan is my cousin. How do you know him? If you see him in the future, please take good care of him. Oh, what's your name?"
Although Mo Yu knew everything about this, for the sake of convenient communication and to avoid suspicion, he deliberately asked these questions.
"My name is… Yun Zhi. As for your cousin, I heard about his annulled engagement with the Nalan Family in the Imperial Capital. That matter caused quite a stir in the capital back then, so I naturally heard his name." Her beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and Yun Yun avoided Mo Yu's deep black eyes.
Perhaps because her strength was Sealed, seeing the woman in front of him not even dare to look him in the eye when lying, Mo Yu found it somewhat amusing. This seemingly calm and composed Dou Huang expert, who held great power over a Sect, still possessed a bit of a young girl's shyness.
A moment later, he handed the roasted rabbit meat to Yun Yun. She tore off a small piece of rabbit meat, her red lips slightly moving, and her elegant manner of chewing slowly and deliberately was very pleasing to the eye.
"After your injuries heal, do you still plan to look for the Amethyst Winged Lion King?" While eating, Mo Yu asked casually, as if probing. Without Yun Yun, he wouldn't dare to go to the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Immortal Cave.
"Yes. I need the purple spirit crystal," Yun Yun sighed softly and said.
"I see. The Amethyst Winged Lion King's strength isn't much greater than yours. It's just that Seal technique is too overbearing. As long as you avoid it, you still have a chance," Mo Yu said slowly.
Mo Yu would not proactively suggest cooperation. After all, he was at a disadvantage right now. If he proposed it, he would lose his bargaining power.
Hearing Mo Yu's words, Yun Yun's beautiful eyes suddenly moved. She stared intently at the handsome young man in front of her, curiously asking, "Are you really from the Xiao Family of Wutan City?"
The young man's inadvertently exuded profound temperament and outstanding insight made her can't help but wonder if he was a Prince secretly cultivated by the Imperial Royal Family. Otherwise, besides the Cloud Mist Sect, which other force in the Jia Ma Empire could Cultivate such an excellent Disciple?
Hearing this, Mo Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes at her and said, "Do I need to lie to you about something like this?"
"After this matter is over, take him into the Cloud Mist Sect. Such a good seedling shouldn't be wasted," Yun Yun thought to herself when Mo Yu confirmed it again.
However, she then thought of Mo Yu's cousin, Xiao Yan. If it was because of Yanran's matter, would Mo Yu have a prejudice against the Cloud Mist Sect and refuse to join?
Then, during the three-year agreement, perhaps she should tell Yanran to go easy, or even take Xiao Yan into the Cloud Mist Sect as well, compensating his cousin with the status of a Personal Disciple.
Forget it, even if he doesn't join the Cloud Mist Sect, I'll leave him a few suitable Cultivation Techniques and Dou Skills, which can be considered repayment for saving my life.
Shaking her head, Yun Yun stopped thinking. Seeing that Mo Yu had finished eating and was Cultivating, she also sat down beside him, closed her eyes, and slowly dissolved the purple crystal Seal within her body.
During the few days that Yun Yun was breaking the Seal, thanks to Mo Yu's attentive care, their relationship gradually became closer.
Perhaps because of Mo Yu's outstanding temperament and extraordinary speech, Yun Yun did not appear overbearing or noble when speaking with him.
The cave-dwelling life, like cohabitation, passed peacefully for two days. However, on the third day, it was broken by a sudden roar of a tiger.
"That's the roar of a third-order magical beast, a Thunder Rock Tiger. How were we discovered?"
Hearing this roar, Mo Yu frowned. He had deliberately released the aura of the Vermillion Bird Sky-Burning Lightning around the cave. How dared a third-order magical beast come here?
Hearing this, Yun Yun's pretty face flushed with an apologetic crimson, and she whispered awkwardly, "Sorry, I… went out to take a bath today."
Hearing this, Mo Yu was startled, not expecting such bad luck to fall upon him. He then gripped his long spear and low-growled, "Women are troublesome. You stay here and don't move. I'll go out and lure that Demonic Beast away."
A third-order magical beast. This would be another tough battle. If it weren't for the accompanying purple crystal source and that small third-order beast, Mo Yu really wanted to just leave this woman here alone.
"You… your strength… I'll go instead." Looking at Mo Yu, who was about to turn and leave, Yun Yun's apology deepened, and she quickly stood up and said.
Even her proud Disciple, Nalan Yanran, couldn't handle a third-order magical beast, so Mo Yu's trip would be even more dangerous.
"Stop!" His footsteps suddenly halted, Mo Yu turned around and sternly shouted, "Don't cause me any more trouble! Stay put obediently!"
Startled by Mo Yu's sudden sharp shout, Yun Yun stared blankly at him, her mind suddenly unable to process it. This… this little guy actually dared to yell at her like that?
"If you don't listen again, I won't bother with you!"
