After pushing open the door to his room, Mu An discovered that his bed had already been occupied by a certain girl!
And her sleeping position could only be described as indescribable!
The loose, lazy pajamas could hardly conceal the parts of her fair skin that were awkwardly exposed due to her strange posture.
That kind of half-hidden, half-revealed allure was indeed quite eye-catching!
"This sleeping position is really... like a child!"
Mu An shook his head slightly.
He tucked the sleeping Mu Yuer in with the blanket and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.
"Why not sleep in your own room and come steal my bed instead!"
"If I hadn't seen you asleep, I would have given you a good pinch!"
Mu An gently pinched the girl's cheek, feeling a mix of amusement and exasperation.
In fact, he understood that this was the tsundere girl expressing her inner feelings.
Compared to the previous tsundere who only hid her feelings, the girl had made a lot of progress!
At least now she understood how to take the initiative and seize the advantageous position!
"Forget it, I'll just find another place to make do!"
"There should still be plenty of empty guest rooms downstairs!"
Mu An muttered to himself.
Then, he quietly left the room and gently closed the door.
"I wonder which room Hong Yi is staying in? It would be awkward if I accidentally opened her door!"
Mu An pondered for a moment.
If he remembered correctly, Hong Yi was currently staying in a guest room on the first floor.
But he didn't know exactly which one.
Mainly because he hadn't paid much attention before!
Creak!
Mu An randomly chose a room and turned the doorknob.
The result....
A sudden burst of holy light almost blinded him!
"Uh, I say this is an accident, do you believe me?"
Seeing Hong Yi just changing clothes, Mu An shrugged helplessly.
This really wasn't his fault.
He hadn't expected to be so 'unlucky'!
With so many guest rooms on the first floor, he randomly picked one and just happened to choose the room where Hong Yi was staying!
One could only say that this was all due to 'luck'!
After all, generally speaking, such benefits were things only protagonists would encounter!
And Mu An's luck had accumulated over time, already comparable to most protagonists!
So, it wasn't surprising that such a wonderful 'misunderstanding' occurred!
On the other side, Hong Yi paused for a moment.
Then she continued to change her sleepwear as if no one was around.
Her expression was calm, without a hint of disturbance!
It made sense; as her master's slave, she had nothing to hide!
The two of them tacitly went about their own business.
One was admiring, while the other was changing clothes.
"Sorry, I took a wrong turn!"
Mu An casually found an excuse and prepared to retreat.
He had already enjoyed the unexpected beauty, and it seemed he had no reason to stay any longer.
Still, the same old story.
He liked discussing the essence of life with beautiful women.
But that didn't mean he would think about doing that with every woman he saw!
This is one of the differences between humans and animals!
"No, you didn't take a wrong turn!"
After a moment of silence, Hong Yi suddenly spoke up to keep him there.
Mu An: ???
"Training! I need your help with training!"
Hong Yi looked at Mu An seriously, her eyes focused.
[Emotional fluctuation from Hong Yi: Nervous +50, congratulations, you have received the reward [Lifespan +1 year]!]
She could actually be nervous?
It was hard to tell from her expression!
"Alright then! But I have to say first, my guidance is very strict!"
Mu An shrugged.
For the assassin girl's hard-won plea, it would be somewhat unromantic to refuse again. Not to mention, this was a very serious form of cultivation and also a great opportunity to earn emotional rewards!
"Hmm!"
Hong Yi gently nodded.
[From Hong Yi's shy emotional fluctuation +25, congratulations, you have received the reward [Temporary Increase in Comprehension Opportunity *1]!]
[From Hong Yi's expectation emotional fluctuation +30, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +6666]!]
.....
Mu An found a comfortable position to lie down.
Meanwhile, Hong Yi was sweating profusely as she worked out beside him.
All of this was to become stronger and take revenge on her enemies!
That is, to take revenge on the old Dragon King who raised her!
If he were to tell her that the old Dragon King's life was completely in his hands, and that he had even locked his consciousness in a small dark room, would that dampen the girl's enthusiasm?
After thinking it over, Mu An decided to abandon that impulse.
"Don't keep doing the same movement; you need to change it up to effectively train different muscle groups!"
Mu An lazily offered his advice.
As a master whose cultivation far surpassed hers, he naturally had the right to 'point fingers' at the girl.
Hong Yi slightly bit her lower lip.
After a moment of hesitation, she obediently switched to another exercise.
If she hadn't felt her strength growing within her, she really wouldn't be so willing to listen to this guy Mu An!
Everything was for the sake of becoming stronger!
After all, she had already put in a lot in the past, so it didn't matter if she put in a little more!
"I heard that you've recently come into contact with that girl in white?"
Hong Yi suddenly brought up the topic.
"You know her?"
Mu An slowly opened his eyes, which had been closed in meditation.
His calm, pitch-black eyes seemed like a bottomless pool, giving a heavy and unfathomable feeling.
"Hmm! She's a friend I had when I was in the orphanage!"
Hong Yi hesitated for a moment before honestly saying.
This wasn't really a secret.
If the other party wanted to investigate, it would be easy to find out!
"So, what do you want to say?"
Mu An rhythmically tapped his fingers on the bed.
"I want to say, can you let her go? If she accidentally offended you, I apologize on her behalf! She's still a child…"
"Absolutely not!"
Mu An stopped tapping his fingers and waved his hand to interrupt her.
"Not everything in the world can be resolved with an apology!"
"Moreover, she once helped the enemy deal with me!"
"If it were someone like you, who likes to eliminate threats completely, do you really think you could just laugh it off and let it go?"
"I don't care what you think; I'm not going to let her go!"
Faced with Mu An's questioning, Hong Yi instinctively opened her mouth, seemingly wanting to refute something.
But after a long pause, she couldn't think of any solid argument to counter him.
Her bright, beautiful eyes dimmed a little.
Yes!
If it were her, a potential enemy like that would naturally be silenced forever for safety!
Eliminating threats completely was just a habit for them as assassins!
So, she couldn't persuade Mu An, nor could she persuade herself.
