It was reasonable for Yun Shimo to use this identity to reject Princess Qianyang, so it would be hard for the Emperor to force this marriage as well, right?
Tianci received a hidden weapon that looked like an innocuous coin pouch but was actually a hidden weapon. He would only need to press on the three designation points on the pouch to release powerful poison needles.
“Who gave you this Magic Core bracelet?” Yun Shimo perceptively spotted the Magic Core bracelet on Tianci’s wrist.
“The Crown Prince!” Tianci answered.
Yun Shimo glanced at Hua Qiyue and was about to ask Tianci for the bracelet when Hua Qiyue quickly said, “Tianci, you must take care of this Magic Core bracelet for it is no ordinary bracelet. It will be able to help you absorb even more anima energy from a place that is lacking in anima energy.”
Hua Qiyue said with a smile, “You shouldn’t let the Crown Prince’s good intentions go to waste.”
Tianci nodded gravely and Yun Shimo felt a little displeased.
Hua Qiyue pulled Tianci to her side and gently stroked his head. “When I’m not around, you should stay indoors and not go out at all. I’ve cast many anti-demon arrays above the Hua’s Mansion, so no one would be able to attack you easily. Moreover, Caiqing and Caining will be around so you should be safe.”
Tianci scoffed unhappily and said, “The Emperor has gone too far. Why would he send you and father to two different places?”
“Your father is willing to go, and so am I. Tianci, remember to practice your Qi Art while I’m away and I’ll teach you about runes after I return,” Hua Qiyue said calmly.
Yun Shimo paused in surprise. He wasn’t familiar with runes but he had heard about this powerful Tao technique.
After a person managed to master runes, he would be able to cast all sorts of arrays, including Transmission Array, Killing Array, and so on. However, one could not simply master runes easily but talent was required to master those runes.
Furthermore, it was extremely difficult to find someone who knew about runes throughout the entire Tianyuan Continent, so how did Hua Qiyue manage to master runes?
Yun Shimo passed a slice of watermelon to Hua Qiyue and said meaningfully, “This beauty watermelon is very delicious and it would clear the fire in your heart.”
Hua Qiyue smiled coldly and said, “The beauty watermelon might be delicious but I’m sure you’d be more interested in beautiful women. Qianyang is as soft and tender as this watermelon, so I’m sure she’d taste just as lovely too, right?”
“Are you jealous? Hmm, are you flying into a jealous fit?” Yun Shimo said with a small smile. He wasn’t angry at all since if Hua Qiyue was jealous, this meant that she cared about him.
Hua Qiyue shook her head and said, “I was contemplating whether I should call off our wedding. Otherwise, I might be standing in the way of your bright future.”
“Hua Qiyue, I agreed to escort her because there’s something mysterious within her,” Yun Shimo did not fully disclose everything but said, “I’ll be back soon.”
Hua Qiyue’s brows arched. Mysterious item? That he couldn’t tell her?
Did this show that he didn’t completely trust her? Hua Qiyue didn’t feel too comfortable at that thought. Tianci picked up a slice of honeydew and placed it in her hands.
She stroked his head and this strange sensation quickly dissipated. That’s right, why should she care so much about him?
If she cared too much about him, she would end up getting hurt. Zhou Zhicheng was a good example of that.
She should focus all her attention on her child and at least, her son wouldn’t leave her. Hua Qiyue quickly finished the honeydew at that thought.
Yun Shimo did not get off his carriage and merely waited for Hua Qiyue to return to the Hua’s Mansion. He did not disclose what was the mysterious item within Princess Qianyang even after they reached the Hua’s Mansion but jumped off the horse carriage and quietly watched them enter the mansion.
“Master, are you sure that this wouldn’t interfere in your relationship?” Bingyi said softly. He didn’t understand why Yun Shimo had agreed to accept this task.
“I have my own reasons for doing so,” Yun Shimo said coldly. Then, he got on the Prince Nan personal carriage that had been trailing behind.
The corners of Bingyi’s mouth twitched and he guessed that their big wedding would probably be faced with some controversies soon. Princess Qianyang didn’t seem like a pushover and even if Yun Shimo kept a safe distance from her, she would not give up easily.
The women of Heaven Sect all seemed very scheming and tough to handle. Since Hongyi was so rude and cruel that she would attack a young kid, Bingyi didn’t have a good opinion of Qianyang either and would rather His Highess marry Hua Qiyue.
After they had interacted for a period of time, Bingyi’s impression of Hua Qiyue had rapidly improved and now looked upon her very favorably.
Hua Qiyue asked Lv Xin to prepare wine and two roast chicken after her return to the Hua’s Mansion and she then delivered these items to Tianpi.
She was shocked by Tianpi’s appearance when she saw him. His hair was as red as blood and his eyes were bloodshot, just as he had seemed at their first meeting.
He seemed like an evildoer and gave off wisps of murderous look.
“Master, what’s wrong?” Hua Qiyue asked in shock and quickly put down her things. Tianpi refused to look at her and continued to eat his Ginseng with Nine Souls.
Alright, he was going to turn into a ginseng anytime soon since he had been eating ginsengs every day. Was he truly not sick of it yet?
“Master, what’s wrong?” Hua Qiyue looked at the man under the tree in confusion. As she examined his extraordinarily handsome face that was almost bewitching, she suddenly felt her heart race.
The entire place was cloudy and dark, so it was obvious that Tianpi was in poor spirits.
“Master, if you’re not interested in this roast chicken, I’ll give it away to the servants,” Hua Qiyue calmly bent down and was about to pick up the food on the table when Tianpi suddenly flicked his finger, sent a ray of light flashing her way, and snatched the food from her hands.
Grabbing from a distance!
Yun Shimo could do that too!
Hua Qiyue arched her brows. She was surprised to see that he still wanted the wine and meat despite his anger.
“Didn’t I tell you to stay away from Yun Shimo? I didn’t expect you to get yourself engaged to him!” Tianpi scoffed coldly as he glared at her.
#
Hua Qiyue shrugged her shoulders in resignation and said, “He’s very strong and besides, he would be able to protect Tianci.”
“What a joke, are you saying that I’m not powerful enough? The ball of light within Tianci’s body is probably there because of his physical constitution,” Tianpi said and this was also the first time he brought up the light in Tianci’s body.
Although he couldn’t leave this world, he was still able to listen to the happenings in the outside world. He might not be able to see what was happening outside, but he could hear.
#
Hua Qiyue fell silent and asked herself if she had fallen for Yun Shimo. She had her own reasons for wanting to marry Yun Shimo since this would mean that she could become even more powerful and Tianci would have another protector.
However, Yun Shimo’s behavior today suddenly made her feel uneasy. Would Tianci truly be safe after both her and Yun Shimo left this place?
“Master, you keep saying that Yun Shimo is a very mysterious person and today, I sensed that this air of mystery around him has something to do with his father,” Hua Qiyue said after a moment of silence. Then, she told Tianpi about the remaining piece of soul that was left of Yun Xuan and how he was still able to remain alive even after that.
“Thy must have messed with people they shouldn’t have messed with. There aren’t that many highly-skilled Qi Artists within the Tianyuan Continent but there are still several people with terrifying abilities. Otherwise, Yun Shimo wouldn’t have fled to this place,” Tianpi surmised calmly.
“Are you telling me that he had come here to escape from his enemies?” Hua Qiyue exclaimed in shock.
“Naturally so. This man is highly-skilled in alchemy and Qi Art and also obtained the favor of the Emperor despite appearing from nowhere. So don’t you think that he managed to obtain the Emperor’s favor precisely because he’s from another country?” Tianpi said with a cold scoff. “You’re so trusting and act too rashly, so how could you expect to fully understand Yun Shimo as a man?”
Hua Qiyue wasn’t sure what kind of person Yun Shimo was but she guessed that his feelings for her had to be genuine, right?
Their deep kiss and everything in between couldn’t have been faked.
Tianpi snorted unhappily when he saw that Hua Qiyue was deep in thought. He was well aware of what stage Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo were in their relationship.
Tianpi bit angrily into the roast chicken that he was holding and glanced coldly at Hua Qiyue as he said, “I can’t be bothered to interfere in your matters in the future. You’re such a bundle of trouble!”
His voice was full of resentment. Then, he took the wine and roast chicken to another tree and sat down.
He acted as though he didn’t want to see her, so Hua Qiyue rose to her feet sullenly and started cultivating by the pond. She had lost confidence in herself, or rather, she had lost confidence in Yun Shimo.
She had assumed that as long as she was willing, she would be able to marry Yun Shimo.
She didn’t expect Princess Qianyang to appear out of nowhere and for Yun Shimo to suddenly agree to escort her. This seemed extremely out of character.
Had she been too confident in her relationship with Yun Shimo? The more Hua Qiyue thought about this, the more upset she became. She finally gave up cultivating and returned to her physical body.
It was already late at night. The bright moon gleamed silvery bright in the night and moonlight flooded in softly from the windowsill and made the flowers carved on the windowsill seemed more delicate and realistic.
Hua Qiyue wiped the perspiration from her forehead and let out a soft sigh. Then, she took her clothes and headed to the public bath to bathe.
The weather was so hot that a bath would make her feel better.
She pushed open the door to the public bath and since Lv Xin and the others were already asleep, Hua Qiyue deftly undressed after she entered the bath and only wore a pink undergarment. Her slim and slender legs and tiny waist were exposed and as her long black hair tumbled down her shoulders, the man on the wall couldn’t help but take a huge gulp.
It was too late by the time Hua Qiyue noticed the man on the wall and the man leapt down and immediately wrapped his fair arms around her waist.
Hua Qiyue was actually strong enough to detect whenever someone was spying on her but she was in a bad mood earlier, so she failed to notice his presence.
“Yun Shimo, get your dirty hands off me!” Hua Qiyue said coldly and her hands transformed into swords and hacked down toward his hand that was wrapped around her waist.
#
Yun Shimo’s hand remained wrapped around her tiny waist and refused to let go while his other hand rubbed at his nose in embarrassment as he said, “My dirty hands? I didn’t know that women were so small-minded. I had only agreed to escort the princess and you’ve already flown into a jealous fit. Life as a man is indeed difficult.”
Then, he sighed and looked very troubled.
Hua Qiyue didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry as she continuously hacked at the hand around her waist. However, his hand seemed to be made of steel and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t get his hand off her.
“Yun Shimo, you pervert, aren’t you going to let me go?”
“I’m holding my fiancee, so I don’t see anything wrong with that. Are you still jealous of Qianyang?” He asked with a smile and didn’t seem angry at all.
Hua Qiyue clenched her jaw tightly.
This time, she condensed anima energy on her hand and mercilessly sent it toward the hand around her waist!

The bright moon gleamed silvery bright in the night and moonlight flooded in softly from the windowsill and made the flowers carved on the windowsill seemed more delicate and realistic.Hua Qiyue wiped the perspiration from her forehead and let out a soft sigh. Then, she took her clothes and headed to the public bath to bathe.The weather was so hot that a bath would make her feel better.She pushed open the door to the public bath and since Lv Xin and the others were already asleep, Hua Qiyue deftly undressed after she entered the bath and only wore a pink undergarment. Her slim and slender legs and tiny waist were exposed and as her long black hair tumbled down her shoulders, the man on the wall couldn't help but take a huge gulp.It was too late by the time Hua Qiyue noticed the man on the wall and the man leapt down and immediately wrapped his fair arms around her waist.Hua Qiyue was actually strong enough to detect whenever someone was spying on her but she was in a bad mood earlier, so she failed to notice his presence.Yun Shimo, get your dirty hands off me! Hua Qiyue said coldly and her hands transformed into swords and hacked down toward his hand that was wrapped around her waist.#Yun Shimo's hand remained wrapped around her tiny waist and refused to let go while his other hand rubbed at his nose in embarrassment as he said, My dirty hands? I didn't know that women were so small-minded. I had only agreed to escort the princess and you've already flown into a jealous fit. Life as a man is indeed difficult.Then, he sighed and looked very troubled.Hua Qiyue didn't know whether to laugh or to cry as she continuously hacked at the hand around her waist. However, his hand seemed to be made of steel and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get his hand off her.Yun Shimo, you pervert, aren't you going to let me go?I'm holding my fiancee, so I don't see anything wrong with that. Are you still jealous of Qianyang? He asked with a smile and didn't seem angry at all.Hua Qiyue clenched her jaw tightly.This time, she condensed anima energy on her hand and mercilessly sent it toward the hand around her waist!
