“Whoosh!”
With a flutter of her skirt, Fang Zixi soared into the sky, floating in the vast emptiness above. She looked down at Tan Yun, and a tear slid down her beautiful cheek as she shouted,
With her skirt fluttering, Fang Zixi soared into the air, hovering high in the vast emptiness, looking down at Tan Yun. A tear slipped from her beautiful eyes as she called out, “I’ll wait for you to come back!”
Having said that, Fang Zixi flew towards Heavenly Gate Divine Island without looking back...
As Tan Yun watched her retreating figure, he was momentarily dazed when he felt a tear drop onto his face.
He knew it was Fang Zixi’s tear.
Immediately, Tan Yun gathered all his strength and shouted, “Okay!”
This single word encapsulated Tan Yun's feelings for Fang Zixi.
His voice was loud, carrying far into the distance.
Faintly, one could see Fang Zixi's figure flying towards Heavenly Gate Divine Palace, pausing momentarily in midair before quickly disappearing from Tan Yun’s sight.
“Ai.” Yu Yunxi couldn't help but sigh.
“What’s wrong with you, Yunxi?” Tan Yun turned back in confusion and asked.
Yu Yunxi concealed her disappointment very well; her brows slightly raised, she placed her hands on her slender waist and pouted, “I went to Heavenly Gate Divine Palace with my fiancé, and witnessed him being all affectionate with two stunning women. Why wouldn’t I sigh?”
“Pfft!”
Tan Yun couldn't help but chuckle at Yu Yunxi’s words.
“What are you laughing at?” Yu Yunxi puffed her cheeks in annoyance.
“You don’t act like it at all.” Tan Yun smiled and said, “If you truly regarded me as your fiancé, seeing me with other women should make you feel jealous, not sigh.”
“If not sighing, then what should it be?” Yu Yunxi glared at Tan Yun.
Without hesitation, Tan Yun replied, “It should be jealousy, unhappiness, resentment towards me.”
“Pfft.” Yu Yunxi feigned indifference, “To put it bluntly, you being my fiancé is just for show, why should I feel jealous or unhappy?”
Tan Yun chuckled, “Alright, no more teasing. I’ll take you back to Western Continent Ancestral Dynasty now.”
“I’m not going back.” Yu Yunxi shook her head, “I want to accompany you.”
“No way.” Tan Yun, while steering the Divine Vessel, firmly refused, “This time I’m going to take Su Bing and the others with me, which will surely create trouble. If you follow me, the dangers are unknown.”
“Tan Yun, let me go with you.” Yu Yunxi stepped forward, grabbing Tan Yun's arm, acting cute and aggrieved, “I’ve never been to Eastern Continent Divine Domain, I really want to see it.”
“Moreover, I’m currently at the sixth level of the dao god realm, my strength is enough to eliminate those at great perfection of the dao god realm, I won’t hold you back.”
Tan Yun shook his head, “Yunxi, this time is different. I’m not going for a leisure trip. If something unforeseen happens…”
Before Tan Yun could finish, Yu Yunxi interjected, “Do you think there won’t be any surprises if I stay in the Imperial Palace?”
“Empress Liu and the Crown Prince both want to kill me. Although I have my master’s protection, if they lure my master away, there’s a chance they could kill me.”
“Think about it, I’m different from Bingshuan. She stays in Heavenly Gate Divine Palace where no one can hurt her, but what about me?”
“You can’t expect me to just wait here for you to return, only to find out I’ve become a corpse, right?”
Tan Yun extended his right hand, covering Yu Yunxi’s cherry lips, “You’re not allowed to say such disheartening things.”
“I don’t want that either, so please let me go with you,” Yu Yunxi pleaded, “Think about it, wouldn’t you feel more at ease keeping me by your side as protection, rather than sending me back to the Imperial Palace?”
After a moment of hesitation, with his brows furrowed, Tan Yun finally said, “Alright, you can come with me. But you must follow my orders throughout.”
