After finishing his official business, Ji Mingyu returned to the bedroom where Xi Yue was.
The moment he saw the girl, all the murderousness and coldness between the man's eyebrows faded away, turning into focused tenderness.
He held the sleeping girl in his arms and kissed her gently on the lips before falling into a deep sleep.

The warm sunlight fell on her face. Xi Yue frowned slightly and opened her eyes.
What comes into view is the lush green spring scenery outside the window and the clear blue sky.
Turning my head, the man's handsome eyes and brows came into view.
Xi Yue's lips curled up into a faint smile, and she felt an indescribable peace and beauty in her heart.
This man always stays by her side.
Protect her when she is in most danger, watch over her when she is sick and injured, and give her encouragement and comfort when she is confused and uneasy.
When she opened her eyes, she always saw him first.
If only, I could live like this forever for the rest of my life, or even for generations to come, and never be separated from this man.
Xi Yue gently stroked the man's eyebrows, then leaned over and gently kissed him on the lips.
Just as she was about to step away, the man who was right next to her suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and pressed her under him.
The hot and violent kiss swept over like a violent storm.
After a long while, the man panted and let go of the girl with a red face. He pinched her small nose and said in a hoarse voice: "Xi'er, don't seduce me. If it weren't for your poor health, I really want to swallow you into my stomach right now!"
Xi Yue's already red face turned redder, and she kicked the man's calf hard, saying angrily, "Old rascal!"
After kicking him, he wanted to jump off the bed and run away, but Ji Mingyu pulled him back and held him in his arms.
"Xi'er, are you disgusted by my age?"
Xi Yue originally wanted to laugh and say, you are an old monster who is tens of thousands of years old, can't you still say you are old
However, I suddenly remembered the way this man proved himself to be "ageless" after I said he was old last time, and I shuddered.
He laughed and said, "How could that be? You are the future Divine Emperor, the one who will rule the martial arts world for thousands of years! It will be easy for you to live tens of thousands of years longer in the future, so how could you be old?"
Ji Mingyu held the girl's chin, forcing her to raise her head, and gently bit her cherry-like lips as a punishment.
"Do you still feel uncomfortable somewhere in your body?"
Xi Yue shook her head, her eyes filled with emotion.
Although she was unconscious, she knew everything Ji Mingyu had done.
"You fool, you are so reckless and you are giving me all your spiritual power. What if your soul is damaged and your cultivation level drops?"
Ji Mingyu's expression did not change at all, and he said as a matter of course: "I want to become stronger in order to protect you and keep you by my side. If I can keep you safe, it doesn't matter even if I have to sacrifice my cultivation."
Ji Mingyu is not good at saying sweet words. Every word he says is what he thinks in his heart.
So even though he was saying such sweet words, his expression did not show any tenderness or affection, only a matter-of-fact indifference.
But it was precisely this kind of self-evident and indifference that made Xiyue inexpressibly moved.
She hugged Ji Mingyu and whispered, "Ji Mingyu, I don't want you to give up your cultivation. I want you to stay well and stay by my side. And I will become stronger and better. I hope to be worthy of you and have the qualifications to stand by your side." (To be continued)
