Prologue:
Every trillion years, a universe undergoes a Big Bang due to extreme energy expansion. Everything becomes infinitely tiny particles carrying energy, floating in the vast void—this process is called the Big Bang… This is a concept; there will be other concepts below…
Originally, there were no concepts; all concepts are defined by humans… To make it easier to understand, we will explain why the Big Bang occurs based on these widely accepted concepts… Time is a concept used to distinguish the movement and change of all things; it needs to be defined quantitatively to accurately express the degree of movement and change… Space is also a concept… The entire universe is an infinite space, while finite space contains what has an end… What is space? Space is what can accommodate certain existences… Using time as an axis, we define past and future, the previous moment and the next second; using space as a division, we define different worlds and places, here and there… Using time as an axis, using space as a division, we define the concept of spacetime… The same space in this second and the next second exists in different spacetimes… If we travel back to the past or the future, from the present spacetime to the past or future spacetime, this is called time travel… If we travel back to the past or the future, we will see another version of ourselves—if you were already born or still alive at that point in time… Why would we see another version of ourselves—because… We live and experience life in space along a timeline… At every minute point in time, there exists a version of ourselves in a certain space… When we exist, we must exist at every point in time we have ever existed… Connecting all our existences together, this is the life we experience… Because we exist simultaneously in many timelines, timelines are parallel; countless identical versions of ourselves exist in countless timelines… Each timeline also has its own timeline… We in different timelines may have the same experiences as us, or perhaps, due to certain changes, be completely different… Space extends infinitely along the timeline, and time also extends infinitely along the spaceline. This infinite expansion led to the rapid expansion of the entire universe. When the expansion became unbearable for the vast space of the universe, the Big Bang occurred, destroying one universe… The cycle of a universe from its birth to its rebirth is called a cosmic cycle, which requires two Big Bangs to complete… After the Big Bang, particles, due to their respective energies, influence each other, their heat continuously rising and contracting. After many years, a point among these particles reaches its extreme temperature and density, causing another explosion. The particles expand and combine to form a new universe… This is the end of one cosmic cycle and the beginning of another… This is the concept of the cosmic cycle. A rule or concept proven by past events... But not everything happens, develops, or perishes according to a rule; there are always exceptions... When an exception occurs, it usually means an accident has happened, and an accident usually means something has happened. Because the event has already occurred, it's called a story... If the story is bizarre and widely circulated, it becomes a legend... If someone then arranges this legend in chronological order or according to historical processes, and does so beautifully and melodiously like poetry, then the legend becomes an epic... From this, we can draw a startling conclusion: Exception = Epic!
Therefore, this book is destined to be nothing more than an epic of heroes... Shame on me!
The last Big Bang was an exception—the entire universe didn't completely disintegrate into particles, nor did it undergo a long thermal contraction process. Instead, after the first Big Bang, some energy clusters remained, and then the universe exploded again, reforming into a new universe… Earth was particularly special; in this Big Bang, besides ejecting some clusters of consciousness energy, the remaining portion reformed into a planet, but dozens of times larger than before… The consciousness energy clusters ejected during Earth's explosion scattered throughout the endless void… Five hundred million years after the Big Bang, human society reappeared on Earth. Chinese is the most prevalent language on the planet, and the level of civilization is complex, with both backward and advanced civilizations coexisting, much like certain periods in the old Earth… The concept of Earth is not yet known to most people… So who knows it? Gods, Buddhas, demons, and many races beyond humanity know it; it was a concept they defined!
This book begins on Earth, telling you the secrets and history of Earth, humanity, gods, Buddhas, demons, and beings beyond them—an epic masterpiece!
Volume One,
Chapter One: The Jade Beauty.
In the flickering light of the torch, the black stone ore in the dark cave reflected an eerie glow… Bai Yun laboriously swung the enormous hammer, hammering the fist-sized, mushroom-shaped chisel down little by little. The hammer was too heavy, and the stone too hard; before it had even penetrated half a foot, Bai Yun's squatting body felt like it was about to fall apart, sweat dripping incessantly onto his arms… “It's over, I probably won't even have soup for lunch today…” Bai Yun thought dejectedly, but dared not stop hammering, trembling… He lifted it up and then lowered it again… Zhou Bapi had been disliking him for the past few days, and now he had even more leverage over him; he was sure Bai Yun wouldn't have an easy time… Bai Yun stood up, straightened his aching back, and gently shook his shoulders, wiping the sweat from his face with his dirty, soaked shoulders. The pain made him furrow his thick, dark eyebrows… Looking out, the half-exposed cave entrance revealed a gray sky, no better than Bai Yun's mood… This was a large mining area in the Black Stone Province of Northwest China—the Black Stone Mine… Black Stone ore is a precious… Stone can be processed into various precious ornaments, and jewelry made from the most precious 'eyes' is a coveted collection among noblewomen and beauties throughout the Eurasian continent… Bai Yun is an orphan, one of the hundreds of slave stonemasons of the Black Stone Mine owner. He has been working for eight years, from the age of five, until this year when he entered the mine—if this can be called work… Each slave stonemason has a daily quota; if they don't complete half in the morning, they get no food; if they don't complete half in the afternoon, they get half their dinner… Each stonemason submits their quota before meals… The miners received meal slips... Bai Yun had been sick a few days ago and rested for three days, but before she was fully recovered, she was rushed back to work, forced to catch up on her missed meals... However, because she lacked strength, she hadn't met her quota these past two days, hadn't eaten enough, and had even been kicked a few times by the foreman, Zhou the Skinflint. Feeling suffocated, her already thin body became even thinner, reduced to skin and bones... The distant sound of a bell signaled lunchtime... Bai Yun, carrying a broken earthenware pot and a few pitiful pieces of ore, trudged into the distance... ********
With a bruised and swollen face, Bai Yun limped back to his mine, carrying a broken pottery jar that was now only half full. The jagged jar contained only a little water, which Bai Yun had scooped up after washing his face in the distant stream… Zhou Bapi had not only failed to feed him but had also given him a severe beating and verbal abuse. If he weren't still a child, he would have beaten him to a pulp… Bai Yun parted his pursed lips and sipped the water, a sharp pain causing him to cough involuntarily. His gums, tongue, and lips were all damaged, and his throat, which had been swollen for days, was now even more swollen… The coughing made his nose sting and numb. Bai Yun took a breath, suppressing the tears… Bai Yun had probably never been born… He had cried, because neither his memory nor anyone else's words mentioned such a thing… Baiyun was thirteen years old, but he felt as if he had lived for thousands of years, to the point that he was numb to himself and everything else… Because of this numbness, he had few friends, which made Zhou Bapi, who loved flattery, dislike him and cause him trouble… But he didn't care too much. He didn't even care much about life and death now. He had originally planned to die from this illness, but he thought Zhou Bapi would be very pleased with his death… This slight resentment kept him from entering another world… Baiyun leaned against the cave entrance, staring blankly at the sky and distant mountains outside… Were the mountains outside also this black? Was the sky outside also this gray? Did the people outside all live like him and the other stonemasons? Bai Yun pondered... His memories were all of this mine: eating, sleeping, working; the clanging and banging, the screams and curses, the dull tolling of bells—this was Bai Yun's world... Laughter? In this world, he had only heard Zhou Bapi's cold laugh, the stonemasons' smirks, and the rare, very rare, silly laughs of the slave stonemasons who had found top-grade ore and gained their freedom... He had never laughed... Tears and smiles were equally luxuries for him... "If only I could find top-grade ore!" This was Bai Yun's only hope, but he knew it was just hope. From childhood to adulthood, he had only heard of fewer than ten miners who had ever found such a large, top-grade mine... And the entire mine had nearly ten thousand slave miners, not counting those who did grinding, carving, and other odd jobs... Ten thousand—Bai Yun unfortunately knew what that meant. Such a concept…
Bai Yun took a couple of sips of water, ignoring his wounds, and picked up the hammer, forcefully smashing it down on the chisel. Sparks flew as the chisel and hammer collided… Sweat blurred Bai Yun's vision. The falling hammer struck his left hand, which was supporting the chisel, instantly paralyzing it. Bright red blood dripped from the peeling skin onto the mine floor. Bai Yun released his left hand, a sudden surge of anger welling up inside him. He furiously pounded the hammer against the chisel, the muffled thuds echoing in the dim mine shaft… “Crack-crack-crack…” A series of cracking sounds made the blind and frenzied Bai Yun stop hammering. He wiped the sweat from his vision and was immediately stunned by the scene before him. Centered on the chisel, the ground, nearly two meters wide, shattered into pieces, a faint pink light emanating from the cracks… Bai Yun's heart… His heart pounded wildly. "What's going on? What's down there? Is it a monster, or a treasure?" His hand trembled as he reached for the ground, then recoiled as if electrocuted… Bai Yun hurriedly stood up, ran out of the cave, looked around to make sure no one was there… then ran back in, took a deep breath, and gently brushed aside the black rubble. A flash of pink filled the cave; beneath the rubble lay a patch of pale pink stone… The stone was smooth and round, with a soft, hazy light emanating from it, and a faint, nameless fragrance filled the cavern… Bai Yun's heart pounded. "This must be a gem, and possibly a large, rare, whole piece! It must be! With it, I can be free…" He felt the first joy in over a decade… Bai Yun, his face flushed, gently… After removing the rubble, he was immediately stunned. Before him lay a tall, slender, nude stone statue of a woman. The statue lay supine, her jade-like body exquisitely sculpted, her long hair flowing over her shoulders, her features exquisitely beautiful. A soft glow emanated from her slightly closed eyelids, as if she were about to awaken from a sweet dream. This was no stone statue; it was clearly a stunningly beautiful woman in a spring slumber… Bai Yun, in his excitement, hadn't noticed earlier. Now, remembering that he had touched this beauty's entire body, his face flushed crimson… But his eyes remained fixed on the woman's body and features… His hands dared not reach out to touch her again… Bai Yun had seen female slaves a few times before, and they were all unattractive. Although he knew what beauty was, this woman before him was someone he wouldn't even dare to dream of… Lost in a daze, Bai Yun snapped back to reality. Should he offer her to the mine owner? No, he didn't want to... He felt that the person in front of him was clearly a legendary fairy. As for why she was here, or why she had become like this, he couldn't say for sure. Perhaps it was a gift from heaven... Putting the fairy here was definitely not an option, so where should he put her? Yes, there was a dark cave in the abandoned mine where he lived. He could put her inside... Once he was free, he could find a way to take her away. He could see her every day, smell her fragrance, and he would no longer be all alone! Thinking of this, Bai Yun's face flushed with excitement... Bai Yun picked up the stone statue, which was taller than himself, yet it wasn't heavy at all. It felt warm to the touch and had a pleasant fragrance... Seeing that no one was around, he quickly ran into the stone cave he lived in not far away. After turning a few corners, he moved a large rock in a secluded corner, revealing a small hole that could fit three or four people. He carefully placed the stone statue inside and quickly blocked the entrance... Seeing that no one was around, Bai Yun quickly ran back to the stone cave where he was mining. He wiped away his sweat and felt a surge of joy, as if he had inexhaustible strength... "Hehe!" Bai Yun chuckled foolishly, "I'm going to mine a top-quality ore!" Bai Yun clenched his fist tightly, held the chisel with his left hand, and swung the hammer high in his right hand, smashing it forcefully against the new ore head in front of him...
Chapter Two: Youthful Yearning
There is a type of person who is born a romantic, regardless of age... Bai Yun is one of these people... Since With this pink stone statue, Baiyun's life was completely different... Since falling in love with the statue, the world has gained another romantic, and its loneliness has lessened... Before, Baiyun lived, but without any vitality or hope. Now, however, he felt his life had meaning... Because he was determined to dig out a top-quality gemstone, he felt full of energy while working. Whenever he was tired, the thought of a fairy waiting for him at his lodgings filled him with joy, and he no longer felt tired... Moreover, since meeting this fairy, his body had become increasingly stronger, and his spirit and strength far surpassed what they used to be... Now, Baiyun exceeded his daily quota, and fearing trouble that would reveal his secret, he became much more nimble... Even a simple greeting or a bit of flattery made Zhou Bapi feel very comfortable, and he became familiar with the other stonemasons, making his life much better than before. ...Baiyun used a soft cattail from the mine to weave a dress for the fairy, which she wore on her jade-like body that made his heart race and his face flush... Human potential can be tapped... Baiyun never imagined he could weave clothes—in fact, before this, he had only seen a woman wear a dress once, and as for grass weaving, it was something he had never even heard of... But now he not only knew how to weave, but he had also woven some beautiful flowers onto the dress... Baiyun repaired the door to his dwelling and made a wooden latch... This made it safer... Baiyun spent a month digging a larger and more hidden cave in the original secret cave at night—while digging, he discovered a sizable natural cave not far from the original one... The cave wasn't very large, but it was dry and comfortable, with spring water flowing through the crevices of the rocks nearby... With a little renovation, Baiyun transformed it into a very nice place... If this cave... Without using a hammer, even if the original secret cave were discovered, it would be difficult to find this current cave… Baiyun placed his beloved “fairy” in this cave, weaving a large, thick, soft meadow out of cattails and laying it inside. The fairy lay on it, and a lamp made from pine resin, a specialty of the Black Stone Mine, was placed in the hollowed-out rock wall… Every night, Baiyun would bathe himself and the fairy in the carved-out pool… At first, Baiyun was very shy about this task, but it later became his habit and enjoyment, an indispensable part of his life… The fairy became even more gentle and fragrant when she bathed, her aroma swirling and captivating… Although the fairy was a beautiful jade woman, she was incredibly lively… Baiyun, amidst his joy, also felt a touch of worry, fearing that the fairy might suddenly wake up and think he was a threat to her… Then she would leave, and if she truly left him, what reason would he have to exist? Perhaps it would be better to return… **************
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye… Baiyun is now sixteen years old… These past few nights, while Baiyun bathes the fairy, he has seen pink liquid flowing from between the jade beauty's legs… Although it is only a small amount, it is fragrant and rich, making one feel hot all over, and always feeling the need to shout a few times to feel relieved… Over the past year, the fairy's jade body has become increasingly fragrant, and its color has become more and more beautiful… All these changes have made Baiyun feel uneasy, sensing that something is about to happen… After bathing and cleansing, Baiyun gently removes the fairy's grass skirt, touching the warmth of her jade body, and cannot help but feel his heart flutter… The damp soft cloth wipes the fairy's beautiful breasts, revealing two points… The crimson grew even more vibrant… The wet wipe moved from top to bottom, wiping between her legs, leaving behind a reddish-brown stain mixed with a pinkish liquid… But today was different from usual; the pinkish liquid deepened in color, eventually turning into a bright red blood… Bai Yun was suddenly startled, seeing a patch of scarlet on the snow-white wet wipe… “How could this be?” Bai Yun was instantly stunned, muttering to himself… “All girls are like this! Fool, don’t you know that?” A sweet and charming female voice whispered, its tone as gentle as a whisper… Bai Yun’s heart pounded violently, and he jumped up, almost dropping the fairy to the ground. He looked around, but there was no one there.
"Silly boy, are you going to hurt your sister?" A pair of soft, warm hands wrapped around Baiyun's neck, and a fragrant breath brushed against his face... Baiyun looked at the fairy in his arms in disbelief... A beautiful, pure, and charming face, like a flower, was looking at him shyly... Two adorable dimples on her cheeks were flushed, so beautiful that they put all the flowers to shame... Baiyun was instantly stunned, staring at that pretty face... Their eyes met, and they remained silent for a long time... The longing of youth seemed shallow, but a deep affection had quietly taken root...
He hoped she would wake up, but he didn't expect her to actually wake up; he thought she was real, but he didn't expect her to be real; he never imagined that they would meet in such a situation, and exchange such words!
"You're real, you really are real..." After a long while, Baiyun finally murmured these awkward words to the fairy... "Fool, don't you want me to be real? Didn't you keep hoping I'd come back to life...? Or do you want the first thing I say when I wake up to be cursing you, and then slapping you?" The fairy murmured softly, her words were frightening, yet her tone was so gentle it could kill Baiyun... After speaking, the fairy wrapped her jade arms around Baiyun's face, her small, rosy lips blooming like flowers on Baiyun's lips, her delicate tongue... Xiangjin parted his lips, their light touches lingering between them… The sweet, tingling sensation sent a shiver down Baiyun's spine. He tried to capture her with his teeth, but she had already retreated, leaving his lips… Baiyun felt a pang of loss, as if he had lost his most precious treasure… “Fool, so you’re a bad guy!” the fairy teased… Her pretty face and beautiful eyes were intoxicated, filled with an irrepressible shyness and deep affection… Baiyun was once again captivated by her charming beauty, standing there dumbfounded like a statue, thinking to himself, what happiness it would be to be a statue, just watching her like this?
“You wish! You want me to carry you to bathe every day… Humph! You’re so heavy, do you want to kill me? You wicked heart!” Though the fairy’s teasing was light, her red lips pouted like a budding flower, her starry eyes filled with joy, showing that she was indeed looking forward to such a thing happening… Unfortunately, Baiyun was a fool, how could he understand the thoughts of a young girl?
"Pfft!" The thought of bathing him like this was incredibly embarrassing, and the fairy buried her pretty face in Bai Yun's arms, gently rubbing against him, making Bai Yun's heart pound as if it would burst... For a moment, he didn't know what to say, and probably couldn't even speak now... After a long while, the fairy raised her head, saw Bai Yun's dazed expression, and couldn't help but smile, instantly becoming incredibly charming and alluring... She gently captured Bai Yun's lips, making them pout, then released them; she covered them with her delicate white hands, then released them again, and then gently traced her index finger between his lips... Bai Yun felt a tingling sensation all over his body from her touch, and a sudden desire arose in his heart... He opened his mouth and gently bit her small, snow-white finger, his tongue licking the soft fingertip... Just then The fairy, with a charming smile, trembled... "Ah! You rascal!" The fairy's eyes were hazy, her small fists pounding Bai Yun's chest playfully, but without any real strength... Bai Yun was captivated by her adorable expression, gazing at her intently... His tongue, however, entwined with her delicate fingers, tasting them incessantly... A sweet taste spread from the tip of his tongue, like sugar and honey, yet with a hint of fragrance, and Bai Yun unconsciously swallowed it... The fairy's whole body trembled, her jade legs kicking lightly, her slender waist twisting slightly, her breasts swaying gently, making Bai Yun's heart flutter... But she stopped pounding, her beautiful eyes tightly closed... She gripped Bai Yun's arm tightly with her slender hand, as if a person adrift at sea had grabbed a lifeline, refusing to let go...
Chapter Three: Flowers Bloom for the King
The fairy's jade body trembled even more wildly, biting her red lips and emitting a soft "ee-ooh." A soft moan escaped her lips, her breathing rapid… At this moment, she was breathtakingly beautiful, already overcome with desire… Unfortunately, Bai Yun was a clueless fool, unaware of the mystery at play. He only found the fairy in his arms incredibly beautiful, and the strange “ee-ya” sounds made his heart pound wildly, to the point of dizziness… But his mouth didn’t leave the fairy’s sweet, jade-like finger untouched, sucking on it incessantly, unaware that this was the culprit behind the fairy’s strange cries… With a soft “woo,” the fairy’s snow-white body stiffened, ceasing its violent trembling, yet still quivering slightly… A strange fragrance wafted through the air, and a clear liquid flowed from between the fairy’s jade-like legs… Bai Yun was startled by the fairy’s reaction, spitting out the finger from his mouth, thinking something had happened to her… He checked her breathing… He breathed a sigh of relief; he could breathe again, as if he had simply fallen asleep… He felt a wet, slippery sensation on his thigh. Touching it, he looked up and was immediately greeted by a fragrant aroma… Bai Yun's hand was covered in a sticky, honey-like liquid… Looking down, he saw the liquid still flowing from the fair, plump hollow between the fairy's legs. He scooped up a small handful… His tongue lightly touched it; it was incredibly sweet, even sweeter than the wild honey he had eaten as a child… So, the naive young Bai Yun began to savor it. The fragrant liquid warmed him deeply, and a wave of heat spread from his abdomen to his limbs, making him feel refreshed and light as a feather… The fragrant liquid lasted for a full quarter of an hour before it was completely gone. After eating it, Bai Yun felt light and agile, and even the world before him seemed much brighter than before… What a magical fragrant liquid!
Baiyun was quite puzzled and wanted to ask about the nature of the fragrant liquid… but the beauty in his arms was sleeping soundly, a lovely smile still lingering on her lips, and he couldn't bear to wake her… So he used a wet wipe to clean the traces on their bodies, placed the fairy on the straw mat, covered her with a grass skirt, watched her for a while, and then unknowingly fell asleep himself… The next morning, Baiyun saw that the fairy was still fast asleep, so he quietly went to work… Today, Baiyun was in a very good mood, thinking that there was a beautiful fairy waiting for him in the cave, and he worked with extra energy… Today, Baiyun also felt that he had extra strength, and in less than half a day, he had finished the whole day's work… The black stone quota was carved out... Baiyun stopped, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then secretly ran back to the cave to see the fairy beauty... In fact, Baiyun's worries were unnecessary. This mining area was surrounded by cliffs on all sides, with only one road leading in and out. Moreover, the slave miners all had quotas, and the mine shafts were all quite far apart, so very few people would come here... Baiyun returned to the cave and hesitated at the entrance for a long time, not knowing what to say to the fairy... After a long while, he finally mustered up the courage to enter the cave, only to find that the fairy was still fast asleep... Baiyun quietly sat down and looked at the fairy. She was sleeping so beautifully... Alas! He suddenly noticed that the fairy's skin had turned white, as white as snow in winter, except that the snow had a pinkish tinge, shimmering with an alluring glow... As if possessed, Baiyun gently stroked the fairy's impossibly beautiful face. It felt smooth and warm to the touch, even more comfortable than the finest black stone he had ever touched as a child. He truly loved it and didn't want to remove his hand for a long time... After covering the fairy's skirt, Baiyun ran back to the stone cave where he worked... A little while later, the lunch bell rang... At lunchtime, Baiyun left behind a steamed bun and some stewed cabbage... When he took it back, he found the fairy still asleep, so he took it back to the mine and ate it himself... In the afternoon, Baiyun surprisingly completed his three-day quota without feeling tired... Baiyun thought about it and concluded it must be because he had consumed the fairy's fragrant elixir, so he decided to eat even more tonight... Thinking of that sweet and delicious taste, he couldn't wait... Baiyun submitted his quota, collected his dinner, and returned to his lodgings under the full moon... Although Baiyun was ignorant about matters of love, he was by no means stupid. He divided the black stones he had collected that day into several portions, taking only enough for one afternoon and hiding the rest. One reason was that he could have more free time to spend with the fairy, and the other was to avoid arousing suspicion about his transformation... Opening the secret cave, Baiyun found the straw mat empty...
"Where is she? Gone?" Bai Yun was overwhelmed with grief... Suddenly, everything went black, and a pair of delicate, smooth hands, carrying a fragrant breeze, covered his eyes, startling him so much that he almost dropped what he was holding... "Hehe, silly boy, guess who I am?" A sweet voice, tinged with laughter, came from behind him... "Do I even need to guess? You've already told me..." Bai Yun thought to himself... "A fairy..." Bai Yun said confidently...
"It's not fun at all! You didn't even say you couldn't guess! How annoying..." The fairy behind him let go of his little hand and scolded unhappily... Baiyun turned around and saw the beautiful fairy in a grass skirt pouting her rosy lips, looking unhappy, like a child... only the children in his memory weren't as cute as her... "Don't be angry, fairy sister... next time, brother will pretend he couldn't guess, okay?" Baiyun couldn't bear to see her happy and coaxed her gently... This skill of coaxing girls is truly innate. Baiyun had never coaxed a girl before, but on his first try... Knowing how to coax her… the fairy blushed upon hearing his words, her eyes gently gazing at the tall boy before her. “Silly boy, all you do is take advantage of me!” she said, but her body nestled into Bai Yun’s arms, her hands encircling his broad waist, her cheek pressed against his exposed chest, gently rubbing against him… Feeling the fairy’s smooth, pretty face against his chest, Bai Yun felt a warmth in his heart, a wonderful tenderness… So he closed his eyes, gently rubbing his chin against the fairy’s soft, black hair, a delicate fragrance wafting into his nostrils, making him intoxicated, unable to… Extricating herself… **************
Watching Baiyun wolf down her food, the fairy giggled incessantly, gently wiping away the crumbs from Baiyun's cheeks with her small hands… In no time, Baiyun had devoured her dinner… After tidying up and bathing, Baiyun sat naked beside the fairy as usual… but she didn't know whether she should bathe her—the fairy was now awake… “Silly boy, you've finished bathing yourself and then you're not going to care about me?” The fairy smiled, her face flushed, her eyes full of allure and shyness… Baiyun He was ignorant of the proper boundaries between men and women. Although he was occasionally a little shy, it was just a subconscious, slight fear of the unfamiliar… So he would stand naked in front of a beautiful woman, unaware of the deeper meaning behind her asking him to bathe her. After all, he had bathed her himself before and hadn't thought anything of it… Bai Yun gently unbuttoned the fairy's robe more gently than usual, revealing her full, snow-white breasts and her tender, alluring skin. The two nipples on her breasts were a vibrant, blood-red color… Bai Yun inexplicably felt his breathing quicken, but he didn't… The fairy's breathing was even more rapid than hers... He held the fairy in his arms, wiping her delicate skin with a wet wipe, the original snow-white color gradually turning into a charming pink... "Fairy sister, the fragrance on your body is so sweet and fragrant!" Bai Yun remembered the delicious fragrance from last night... "Hmm—what fragrance?" The fairy, dazed from his rubbing of her snow-white, delicate breasts, asked in confusion... "It's the fragrance that flowed from here after you fell asleep yesterday! It's so fragrant and sweet, and after eating it, I felt especially energetic..." Bai Yun gently wiped the fairy's ample vulva with a wet wipe. In the hollow of Longzhong... "Ah..." the fairy cried softly, her whole body trembling slightly. She buried her pretty face in Baiyun's arms, her hands tightly wrapped around his neck... "What's wrong, fairy sister?" Baiyun asked, puzzled... but his hands didn't stop, still gently wiping her, unaware that he was the one making her feel weak all over, blushing with shyness... The fairy's snow-white body grew increasingly red, trembling more and more violently, finally, after a thrust, fragrant fluid flowed out again... Afraid of wasting it, Baiyun simply bent down and began to suck it until it was completely clean... The fairy fainted. It wasn't until Baiyun had bathed her and placed her on the straw mat that she finally woke up slowly...
Chapter Four: A Century of Deep Sleep
"Fairy sister, what happened to you just now?" Baiyun asked, puzzled, looking at the fairy who had just woken up... "It's all because of you, you bad guy, you bad guy!" The fairy blushed and punched Baiyun's chest with her little fists... "I... what happened to me, fairy sister?" Baiyun looked at the fairy who was taking her anger out on him, puzzled... "Don't call me fairy sister, I have a name, my name is Ran Xiangxue... You can call me Xiangxiang from now on! What's your name?" Ran Xiangxue stopped... He gently patted her chest and asked softly, "Fairy... Xiangxiang, my name is Baiyun, you can call me Brother Yun..." Baiyun always felt that Xiangxiang was like a little sister who needed him to take care of her, of course he didn't think he was taking advantage of her... "You little rascal, taking advantage of me... Do you know how old I am, and you want me to call you brother?" Xiangxiang playfully drew circles on Baiyun's firm chest muscles with her fingers... Baiyun felt ticklish from her scratching, grabbed her small hand and held it in his big hand, her fair and tender baby-like slender hand only big enough for one person in Baiyun's big hand. A surge of tenderness welled up in Bai Yun's heart as he gently stroked the soft, jade-like hand in his palm. The exquisite touch intoxicated him... Xiang Xiang also loved this feeling; no one had ever made such an intimate gesture towards her before... In fact, no man had ever been so close to her as this boy... Thinking of this, Xiang Xiang's heart melted with tenderness... "Xiang Xiang, no matter how old you are, I still think you're like a little child who needs someone to take care of you..." Bai Yun had a natural talent for being a playboy; he said such cheesy things naturally, without feeling embarrassed at all... Girls generally wouldn't object to a boy they liked saying such things to them... Xiang Xiang was a girl too, and no exception... "Ugh, you always tease girls... Brother Yun, I'm over three hundred years old... Well, that doesn't even include my time in the Stone Sleep... Do you think I'm older than you, Brother Yun?" Xiang Xiang asked with a smile... "Ah... over three hundred years old?" Bai Yun's mouth gaped open wide enough to fit a goose egg... "Shh, aren't you... The lifespan of people in our Flower Spirit Kingdom is generally..." "About ten thousand years, so by your human standards, I'm still a child... But compared to you, Brother Yun, I'm... hehe!" Xiangxiang, not content with the initial shock, dropped a bombshell... "Flower Spirit Kingdom?... Ten thousand years?..." Baiyun was nearly scared to death; if it weren't for his face blocking his view, his mouth would have been agape... "Hehe... look how scared you are... I have a long lifespan but I'm not a monster, and I won't eat you..." Xiangxiang playfully touched Baiyun's tongue with her finger... The ticklish sensation snapped Baiyun out of his daze, and his mouth... He then put Xiangxiang's finger in his mouth... Xiangxiang remembered that painful, tingling sensation and quickly pulled her finger back... "I hate you, you always bully Xiangxiang..." she said, playfully hitting Baiyun... "Xiangxiang, is what you said true?" Baiyun asked, still somewhat skeptical... In Baiyun's knowledge, he had never heard of anyone living to such an old age; very few people lived past one hundred... "Of course it's true, Brother Baiyun... We are different from ordinary humans. We Flower Spirits are very long-lived... unlike the people of the Ouyamei Continent who have such short lifespans..." "Short..." Xiangxiang said earnestly... Baiyun knew that the Hua Kingdom he was in belonged to the Ouya Mei Continent, and he also knew about several other countries, but he had never heard of the Hualing Kingdom... "Which continent is the Hualing Kingdom on?" Baiyun was intrigued by Xiangxiang's description of the Hualing Kingdom people who had lifespans of ten thousand years, and asked curiously... "The Hualing Kingdom isn't on any continent. The Hualing Kingdom is in another world. You can go there by opening the Lingxi Gate... It's very beautiful there, with a beautiful Dream Lake, magnificent seascapes, adorable magical beasts and spirit birds, beautiful flowers and trees, and dear friends. I miss my parents, brothers, sisters, and cousins..." Xiangxiang gazed into the void, murmuring as if she were already in that dreamlike world... Baiyun was infected by her expression and words, and a dreamlike world also appeared in his mind... How wonderful it would be if I could live in such a world... Unfortunately, he was a slave without even freedom. Baiyun came to his senses and knew how unattainable that was for him... "Xiangxiang, how did you come to be here? Are you homesick?" Baiyun asked softly... Xiangxiang woke up from her reverie, Her little hands gently stroked Baiyun's strong chest... "Hmm, Brother Baiyun, Xiangxiang misses home so much! She misses her mom and dad, her brothers and sisters, and all her friends. She misses Dream Lake, Jinghai, and my little dream..." As she spoke, tears streamed down her beautiful eyes... "Xiangxiang, be good, don't cry... Xiangxiang misses home, brother will take you home someday... okay?" Baiyun's nose tingled from Xiangxiang's crying. Thinking of how he had never known who his parents were, and how no one had ever loved him, he poured out all his tenderness... He loved seeing this adorable and beautiful little girl smile, her shy and endearing demeanor, and the fear of seeing her sad and crying, which broke his heart... Baiyun gently wiped away Xiangxiang's tears and tenderly comforted her... Baiyun's soothing tone made Xiangxiang miss her parents even more, and she buried her face in Baiyun's arms and burst into tears... Baiyun looked at her helplessly, tears streaming down his face, but he didn't make a sound... He held Xiangxiang tightly, and the two of them wept sadly... The wind stopped, the rain ceased, and the clear sky revealed a beautiful scene...
After crying, the two looked at each other's red eyes and couldn't help but laugh... "Brother Yun, let me tell you how I came to be here!" Xiangxiang said softly... "Okay... Brother will listen to you..." Baiyun gently stroked Xiangxiang's hair... "I am the daughter of Ran Chaoyang, the ruler of the Flower Spirit Kingdom. I have an older brother named Ran Xiangguan, an older sister named Ran Xiangfei, and a younger sister named Ran Xiangkou. My mother's name is Liu Sisi... Because I was born with a unique fragrance and snow-white skin, my grandfather named me 'Xiangxue' (Fragrant Snow)... I have always been sick since I was born. You know, we..." Flower Spirits generally only fall ill at a very old age; children are usually very healthy. My father consulted many doctors, infused me with a great deal of internal energy, and fed me many precious medicinal herbs, but my illness still didn't improve… By the time I was three years old, my health had deteriorated drastically; I was almost always in a coma, only able to survive on the ten-thousand-year-old jade marrow and my father's Heavenly Tranquility internal energy… By the time the Golden Luo Flower bloomed, I was already on the verge of death… Just when my parents had given up hope, a mysterious old man suddenly appeared at the palace with an imperial edict… After seeing me, he simply smiled and gave me a pill… …The old man said to my father and mother, “This girl is born with extraordinary talents, and I'm afraid ordinary men will find it difficult to handle… She will face a calamity three hundred years from now. Remember, when she is without life, seal her in the Black Stone Mountain of the mortal world… Her future opportunities will depend on her destiny…” After saying this, he drifted away… Three days after taking the elixir, I regained consciousness, and soon my body recovered. I even seemed healthier than ordinary children… Later, I grew up and became a famous beauty in the Flower Spirit Kingdom. Many men pursued me, but if I got too close to a man, they would be overwhelmed by my fragrance… Hehe… So the men stopped approaching me, and I… So many worries were gone... Later, my father and I came to the human world twice, and I learned that there were people in the world who were different from us... When I was 320 years old, I suddenly fell seriously ill. My parents sensed that something was wrong. While I was still conscious, my father sadly told me about my childhood and told me to seal me in the Black Stone Mountain in this human world before I was born... Remember to come back to see them when I wake up... "Xiangxiang finished recalling the past with tears in her eyes..." I don't know how many years have passed, and I don't know how everything is about Hua Ling... "Xiangxiang murmured... Do you still remember when you first fell ill? "Baiyun said with concern, wiping away Xiangxiang's tears..." It should be three years in the Divine Sect in the mortal realm... "Xiangxiang thought for a while and said... That's not long, only five hundred years... Don't be sad, five hundred years shouldn't be a long time for you Flower Spirits..." Baiyun comforted her... But Baiyun was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, Xiangxiang is the princess of the Flower Spirits, and is so beloved, so why is there no one protecting her... Brother Yun doesn't know, the passage between the Flower Spirits and the mortal world isn't always open, and generally, Flower Spirits can only stay in the mortal world for a short time, otherwise their bodies can't take it... Except for me, even Father can only stay in the mortal world for one day... The two times Father took me to the mortal world, I had to cultivate for a long time after returning to recover... Moreover, the old man also said that it depends on my own destiny..." Xiangxiang said softly... How did you know what I was thinking? "Baiyun suddenly realized that she hadn't said anything, she had only thought about it, how could she know..." I don't know either, anyway, I can hear what you're thinking... Hehe! Let's see what kind of bad intentions you dare to have in the future! "Xiangxiang has regained her mischievous and adorable expression...
Chapter Five: Tender Feelings Between Two People
" "Then you really are a fairy... able to live for ten thousand years, and know what others are thinking..." Baiyun felt like she had struck gold, but she was also a little worried. What if she accidentally thought of something that would upset her?
"It's good that you know. You must make me happy in the future..." Xiangxiang gently pinched Baiyun's nose with her little hand... "I will, Xiangxiang, brother will definitely make you happy!" "Baiyun said seriously... How could he possibly make such a lovely and beautiful girl unhappy? And she's so beautiful when she's happy..." Brother Yun, I know you'll be good to me, because you've been good to me ever since you rescued me from the stone. Although Xiangxiang is petrified, she can still sense your thoughts and your past experiences... Brother Yun, Xiangxiang will always be good to you too... "Xiangxiang gazed at Baiyun tenderly and gave him a sweet kiss... Baiyun blushed for some reason, feeling somewhat bewildered... "Xiangxiang, why do you leave a fragrant liquid after you fall asleep when you tremble...?" Baiyun recalled past events, very curious... Xiangxiang saw the various foolish things Baiyun had done to her in his mind, and was overwhelmed with shame... "Brother Yun is so naughty, Brother Yun isn't ashamed at all..." Xiangxiang said coyly... Baiyun was confused, staring blankly at Xiangxiang's adorable and stubborn expression... After meeting Xiangxiang, his intelligence clearly decreased, and he was often in a daze... "Brother Yun, do you know?" A girl's body cannot be looked at casually, unless it's her beloved or husband... and it certainly cannot be touched casually, especially where you just touched it... "Xiangxiang knew Baiyun didn't understand these things, and although she was a little shy, she still wanted to tell him..." Is it the same in the human world? "Baiyun thought that might be the rule of the Flower Spirit Kingdom..." In the human world, only the husband can see her; before marriage, a man cannot see her... "Xiangxiang said..." "I understand, Xiangxiang, then I won't bathe you anymore..." Baiyun was very sad, thinking that he was just a slave, how could a fairy like Xiangxiang like him... Thinking of this, he was filled with despair... "Brother Yun, didn't Xiangxiang say she would treat you well for the rest of her life... You are Xiangxiang's beloved and husband..." Xiangxiang knew Baiyun's feelings and used a gentle kiss to soothe his inferiority complex, sensitive and easily hurt heart... Baiyun went from not understanding to understanding, and the two were intoxicated in a soul-stirring kiss... After a long time, the two reluctantly separated, embracing and talking...
"Girls' bodies are generally very sensitive, especially here and here..." Xiangxiang pointed to her breasts and private parts, "And Xiangxiang's body is even more sensitive. When Brother Yun touches Xiangxiang, she feels numb... What you eat... the fragrant liquid you eat is what Xiangxiang produces when she is extremely aroused, but it is not something you can eat..." Xiangxiang said shyly... Although she was shy, Xiangxiang had studied the classics on dual cultivation since she was a child, and the Flower Spirits also regarded matters between men and women as inevitable and common, because they advocated dual cultivation... This may also be one of the reasons for their longevity..." Why can't she eat it? "Fragrant nectar is so sweet, it tastes better than anything I've ever eaten..." Baiyun asked, puzzled. In his opinion, it was the best delicacy... Xiangxiang had indeed learned about that sweet taste from Baiyun's memories, and she was also surprised and confused... "Because it's dirty..." Xiangxiang said shyly, "I've never heard of any man eating a woman's 'thing'..." I think everything about Xiangxiang is clean, I like to eat it... I want to eat it every day from now on..." Baiyun said confidently, he believed it without a doubt... "How annoying..." Xiangxiang's voice was very soft, both shy and inexplicably happy... "Xiangxiang, after I ate the fragrant nectar, I felt very strong, I finished several days' worth of work today..." Baiyun said happily... "Then I'll give it to you every day..." Xiangxiang murmured shyly, her beautiful eyes filled with tenderness that could melt the world... "Xiangxiang is so good..." Baiyun recalled the wonderful feeling just now, hugged Xiangxiang in his arms and kissed her... "Brother Yun, do you want to eat the fragrant nectar?" "Xiangxiang tempted the innocent Baiyun, her eyes shimmering with tenderness..." "Yes!" Baiyun swallowed hard and said urgently...
"Then you have to listen to Xiangxiang, and if you behave well, Xiangxiang will give you lots of fragrant nectar to eat..." Xiangxiang said with a charming smile... "Okay... I'll listen to Xiangxiang..." Baiyun said foolishly... First, a passionate kiss, then under Xiangxiang's guidance, he gradually kissed her tender and perky breasts, until they were rosy red from the kisses, and then he went down... He kissed her all over her body, and Xiangxiang was already moaning softly, but she endured it and didn't let herself reach the peak... "Yun... Brother Yun, lie down..." Xiangxiang's body was weak, and she could only sit up with Baiyun's help... Xiangxiang took a deep breath, looked at Baiyun with a charming smile, and slowly straddled his firm buttocks that were gently supported by his fair hand... "Ah... Brother Yun... it hurts..." Accompanied by Xiangxiang's soft moans sent a warm, tingling sensation through Baiyun's body, spreading from between his legs. He entered Xiangxiang's beautiful body... Xiangxiang cried out in pain, yet continued her movements, filling the space with a passionate embrace... After a while, with a soft cry from Xiangxiang, Baiyun felt something burst forth from within him... Baiyun helped Xiangxiang bathe, noticing the bloodstains and mixed fluids on the mysterious pink area between her legs. He felt a pang of heartache and confusion... "This can't be eaten, Xiangxiang will give it to you tomorrow..." Xiangxiang said languidly... Baiyun felt that Xiangxiang looked even more beautiful now, making his heart flutter... After bathing, they chatted for a while, then Baiyun coaxed Xiangxiang to sleep, holding her... His warm, smooth body drifted into a dream… When Baiyun woke up in the morning, he saw Xiangxiang's beautiful eyes looking at him tenderly, and he couldn't help but kiss her… "Xiangxiang, did you sleep well?" Baiyun asked with concern… "No, because you were naughty…" Xiangxiang said coquettishly, her small hand grasping Baiyun's erect member… "I'm sorry, Xiangxiang, you're too good…" Baiyun gently caressed the beauty's soft, alluring breasts… Xiangxiang was aroused by his teasing, and soon she was moaning softly, her nectar flowing, much to Baiyun's delight… Since it was still early, the two decided to have a unique bath together… "Xiangxiang, are you hungry? What would you like to eat?" Baiyun held Xiangxiang and sat on the straw mat, using a dry cloth… "Wiping Xiangxiang's long, black hair... Xiangxiang doesn't eat vegetables, Baiyun knows that..." "When I was at home, I ate all kinds of fruit. Our Hualing is rich in all kinds of fruit, and everyone eats fruit..." Xiangxiang gently stroked Baiyun's handsome face... "Then I'll go up the back mountain to pick some for you later. Although it's not as good as the fruit from your hometown, it can still fill your stomach. Later, we'll find a way to escape, and then you can eat good food..." Baiyun had actually thought about gaining freedom and taking Xiangxiang away from here before going to sleep last night... He could endure hardship himself, but how could he let Xiangxiang suffer... As a husband, how could he let his wife, who was originally a princess and so beautiful, stay in such a place and suffer like this? "Finding the best black stone is very difficult; the only way is to escape..." "No, Brother Yun, actually, I can go for half a year without food, just water, and I'll be fine. Don't go to the back mountain, it's too dangerous... What will Xiangxiang do if something happens to you?" Xiangxiang said worriedly. "Xiangxiang has no magic power now, she's almost like an ordinary person..." "Be good, Xiangxiang... Brother won't go, Brother won't abandon Xiangxiang... Xiangxiang, stay in the cave obediently, don't run around, okay?" Baiyun kissed Xiangxiang's little mouth... "I'll be good, Brother Yun, don't worry... Brother Yun, be careful too... Xiangxiang is waiting for you to come back..." Xiangxiang hugged Baiyun tightly and gave him a passionate kiss... Baiyun reluctantly left the cave, carefully closed the cave door, and walked towards the distant food collection point...
Chapter Six: A Perfect Match
"Little Bai, why are you so handsome today? Did you eat some kind of elixir?" Zhou Bapi lewdly laughed... Baiyun smiled silently... …He picked up his breakfast and headed towards the mine, thinking of Xiangxiang and feeling incredibly happy… The feeling of happiness was wonderful… After wolfing down his porridge and pickled vegetables, Baiyun threw himself into his work… Today, Baiyun felt more energetic, and his hearing was much better than before… The clanging sounds that he hadn't noticed before were deafening today, and he could clearly hear distant sounds… Baiyun was overjoyed… It seemed that Xiangxiang's perfume really did benefit him. Thinking of last night's intimacy… Baiyun felt a surge of heat throughout his body and really wanted to run back to the cave for a closer reunion—though he thought about it, he wouldn't do anything to endanger Xiangxiang… Before noon, he had chiseled out a week's worth of work. Baiyun put down his tools, and seeing that no one was around, he slipped away to the back mountain… Around noon… As soon as Baiyun entered the secret cave, a soft, warm fragrance rushed into Baiyun's arms, and they lingered for a while… After a long time, the two sat on a stone bench that served as a makeshift stool…
"Here, Xiangxiang..." Baiyun washed some wild fruit for Xiangxiang and handed it to her... "Brother Yun, you're so kind..." Xiangxiang said sweetly...
"Brother Yun, what happened to your leg?" Xiangxiang saw a large hole in Baiyun's trouser leg, bleeding profusely... She quickly squatted down to check... "It's nothing, I bumped it while working..." Baiyun said casually, but in his heart, he couldn't help but recall the scene of almost falling off a cliff while picking fruit... "You're lying to me... Look at your injury..." Xiangxiang took a wet wipe and cleaned Baiyun's wound. The wound was deep, exposing the pale bone, but fortunately, it had stopped bleeding, and a thin film had formed on the wound... Xiangxiang's tears dripped onto Baiyun's wound. Baiyun trembled with pain… but ignoring his own injury, Baiyun held Xiangxiang in his arms and gently licked away her tears… “Xiangxiang, don’t cry. My leg doesn’t hurt, but your crying breaks my heart… Be good, don’t cry. I’ll be more careful next time…” Baiyun comforted the heartbroken Xiangxiang, his heart aching… “There’ll be a next time? If there’s a next time, I’ll jump off that cliff and make you experience what it’s like to worry…” Xiangxiang said angrily… “Xiangxiang, be good. I won’t do it again. There won’t be a next time, okay?” "Although I knew Xiangxiang was just saying that out of anger, it still startled Baiyun, and he quickly made a promise..." "Brother Yun, I know you love Xiangxiang, but you can't be so reckless... How can Xiangxiang live without you? You're Xiangxiang's only family now..." Xiangxiang hugged Baiyun's neck, gazing at him affectionately, and said softly... After lunch, the couple spent some more time together sweetly before Baiyun ran back to work in the mine... In the afternoon, Baiyun felt even better, and he actually completed his entire month's quota in one afternoon. She came, and looked radiant... The afternoon quickly passed in sweet memories and beautiful daydreams... As the sun set, the dinner bell rang in the distance...
Baiyun tidied up the mine, packed up his tools, picked up his lunchbox and black stone to collect dinner... Back in the mine, that hot, soft body immediately threw itself into Baiyun's arms. Baiyun also liked Xiangxiang's welcoming gesture, and the two stood at the entrance, entwined... After their entanglement, they began dinner... They glanced at each other from time to time, exchanging knowing looks, and ate their dinner with tender affection. Tender as water, it tasted especially sweet and delicious… After finishing their meal and washing the dishes… Baiyun and Xiangxiang took a bath, a habit of theirs, as natural as breathing… Passion was inevitable during the bath, and after Baiyun had savored Xiangxiang's flowers and fragrant nectar, she was already weak and powerless, barely breathing… After Xiangxiang woke up, she gave Baiyun a light tap, scolding him for being unkind and greedy… but Baiyun interrupted her with a passionate kiss, and she forgot about it completely afterward… Xiangxiang lay naked in Baiyun's arms, her snow-white and alluring body exposed, her slender, rounded thighs and white… Yun's thighs were intertwined, her long, black hair spread out on the white grass mat. At this moment, Xiangxiang's beauty would likely make any man bleed uncontrollably... Baiyun was also a man, and the alluring beauty in his arms had already aroused him. His erect member was already pressed against her slightly parted, moist entrance, ready to plunge in... His free hand teased the two rosy nipples on her snow-white breasts, making them erect and tempting him to suckle... "Brother Yun, don't be impatient, be patient, let Xiangxiang finish... Water tastes sweetest when you're thirsty... Listen to me." "...Xiangxiang grabbed Baiyun's magic hand and pressed it against her smooth, slender waist. Baiyun's hand, however, caressed her snow-white, round buttocks, gently kneading them. The smooth, soft sensation made Baiyun's blood boil...Xiangxiang knew it was impossible to make him stop, so she simply pressed his large hand against her small one, otherwise, who knows where he might run off to commit his crimes..." Although I have lost my magic power, my fragrance remains, and it is even stronger and more intense than before. However, you are fine with me, and after you consume the bodily fluids containing my fragrance, it even makes you... "Her constitution has improved..." Xiangxiang pondered, while also feeling incredibly shy... Although the Flower Spirits are not averse to sex and are often obsessed with dual cultivation, it's rare for a man to do such a thing to a woman... The first time Xiangxiang taught Baiyun to kiss her private parts was out of curiosity, and she was very shy afterward... But she didn't expect Baiyun to not only make licking and kissing her there a habit, but also to consider eating her private parts his favorite delicacy... But to be honest, in her heart, Xiangxiang liked what Baiyun did. He could like her to this extent; how happy she was! What woman would refuse happiness?
It's normal for lovers to do silly things together. As long as they feel happy and sweet together, what is there that they can't do? "No…" I also feel much better now than before. According to the ancient texts I studied, Brother Yun, we are most suitable for dual cultivation because our constitutions are compatible and we benefit from each other. Dual cultivation will be of great benefit to us… Brother Yun, do you know that it's extremely rare for two people with mutually beneficial and exclusive constitutions to meet? We are the legendary match made in heaven…" Xiangxiang said excitedly, giving Baiyun a long, sweet kiss…"Thank God for giving me such a beautiful and lovely wife like Xiangxiang… I will cherish and love her forever…" Baiyun gazed affectionately at his beautiful wife before him, making a vow…"I also thank God for letting me meet Brother Yun. I will be good to Brother Yun for the rest of my life, only to Brother Yun…" Xiangxiang also gazed affectionately at Baiyun, saying her vow of love…"We will always remember what we said, always love each other, and never leave each other…" The two said in unison, then smiled at each other and embraced tightly." From that
day on, under Xiangxiang's guidance and cooperation, Baiyun and Xiangxiang engaged in dual cultivation. The dual cultivation techniques of the Flower Spirit Kingdom were indeed miraculous; as time passed… significant changes occurred between them… Baiyun's body grew stronger, his stamina multiplied, and his vision and hearing were greatly enhanced… His body gradually developed the same fragrance as Xiangxiang's, so much so that Baiyun always had to wear sweaty clothes when getting meals… Baiyun's physique gradually became tall and imposing, transforming him into a handsome man with a hint of domineering power… Since their dual cultivation, Xiangxiang had become even more voluptuous, with stunning curves, and her skin was even whiter, more delicate, and translucent… Her long, black hair became even smoother and shinier, shimmering with an unusual light; her fragrance became even more alluring and mellow… If Xiangxiang was beautiful and pure before, then now she was not only holy and noble, but also incredibly charming and breathtakingly beautiful… Her beauty had reached several levels higher than before… Their dual cultivation became increasingly harmonious… Gradually, they reached a point where they could spend the entire night together in passionate embrace, yet the next day they were full of energy… Baiyun and Xiangxiang grew to love this passionate game of dual cultivation more and more, finding endless enjoyment in it…
Chapter Seven: Fragrant Years
Time flies like water, and sweet times always pass quickly… In the blink of an eye, Baiyun and Xiangxiang had spent a year of blissful time in this mine cave… Now Baiyun was seventeen years old, a tall and handsome man…
Xiangxiang was eight hundred and twenty-four years old, yet she still looked younger than Baiyun… Now her height was almost the same as Baiyun's. With Baiyun's nearly two-meter height, Xiangxiang being the same height as him was extremely rare, and coupled with her unparalleled beauty, she would surely amaze everyone wherever she went—however, Xiangxiang only liked to stay by Baiyun's side, just like in this ancient cave where the sun never shone, guarding the tall and handsome man before her, yet feeling it was the greatest happiness in the world… After this year of dual cultivation, now Xiangxiang and Baiyun felt a warm current flowing through their bodies whenever they were close to each other, and physical contact… The intoxicating, bone-melting, ethereal feeling, Xiangxiang said, was the manifestation of the fourth level of the Flower Spirit Harmony Dual Cultivation Technique—the intoxicating, bone-melting sensation… Even with the physique of a Flower Spirit, it would take two hundred years to reach this level in such a dual cultivation technique, yet they had mastered it in less than a year… Yunlang, Xiangxiang and you are truly a match made in heaven!” As she said this, Xiangxiang’s sweet voice, coupled with her alluring eyes that drove people mad, caused Baiyun to immediately press her stunningly curvaceous, snow-white body onto the straw mat. A gentle, tender caress followed, and soon fragrant nectar gushed forth from that exquisite honeyed place. After Baiyun's delightful indulgence, he squeezed his astonishingly large weapon into the tight, warm, and smooth flesh, beginning a passionate, tumultuous dual cultivation, climbing one peak of desire after another… "My love, is Xiangxiang delicious?" Xiangxiang lay languidly in Baiyun's arms, her exquisite, curvaceous, pink body naked, her alluring eyes gazing at Baiyun, her peerless face flushed with boundless satisfaction… "Little vixen, don't you…" "You've been thinking about it again, haven't you... You'll drain me dry sooner or later..." Bai Yun gently nibbled on the tender red cherry on the incredibly firm and bouncy jade peak, soon making the beauty in his arms moan softly... Bai Yun stopped and continued to bathe the beautiful Xiangxiang... Xiangxiang closed her eyes and enjoyed the blissful bath... After the bath, Xiangxiang sat in Bai Yun's lap—this was their habit, like breathing..." "Is it delicious?" Bai Yun watched Xiangxiang take a bite of the apple, her slightly open mouth looking exceptionally charming... "Mmm, delicious, Yun Lang, you eat too..." Xiangxiang took a bite of the apple, chewed it a few times, and her petal-like lips pressed against Bai Yun's mouth, her tongue carrying the sweet and sour fruit crumbs into Bai Yun's mouth. Their lips and tongues intertwined for a while before separating... "Yun Lang, feed Xiangxiang..." Bai Yun also skillfully took a bite, chewed it, and passed it over, followed by another wet kiss... After a year of sweet and lingering dual cultivation, Xiangxiang and Bai Yun's feelings had been elevated to a height that ordinary people could hardly reach, you in "With me in you, and me in you, we are inseparable..." Their hearts were connected, and they were inseparable, their feelings for each other always in a state of passionate love, growing stronger and stronger... Just like eating a piece of fruit now, they would eat it in the same way, finding endless sweetness and deep affection in an ordinary piece of fruit... This is what it means to be immersed in love..." Xiangxiang, I bought a small courtyard yesterday when I went out, it's very quiet..." Baiyun said... Because Baiyun's hearing and eyesight had greatly improved, he learned in the first half of the year that as long as he secretly gave Zhou Bapi some black stones, he could sneak out with the grain delivery cart, but someone would follow him, and he would have to give that person some benefits... Baiyun found an opportunity to give Zhou Bapi black stones a few times and sneaked out a few times. It turned out that there were places outside that collected smuggled black stones, and Baiyun later took some and sold them for a pretty good price... Because of Xiangxiang, Baiyun also became thoughtful, shrewd, and worldly... He gave the money from the sale to Zhou Bapi, who was following him. Zhou Bapi had many relatives and had given him many benefits, so they gradually became familiar with each other and he could do some things freely... Baiyun secretly bought Xiangxiang some clothes and jewelry, and often brought her some fruit. Just yesterday, Baiyun sold a batch of black stones and bought a courtyard... Now all that's missing is how to gain freedom. With freedom, they can live the life they want..." "Then as long as you gain freedom, we can live like an ordinary couple..." Xiangxiang understood Baiyun's thoughts, her beautiful eyes full of longing, her dreamlike light sparkling... "It won't be long, I believe we will gain freedom..." Baiyun said confidently. If all else fails, the two of them can escape. With Baiyun's current physique, although he doesn't know any martial arts, his strength and agility are far beyond that of ordinary people. As long as they find an opportunity to hide in the truck leaving the mine at night, although it's a bit dangerous, they should be able to get out... However, Baiyun was unwilling to take this risk. If they were caught, with Xiangxiang... "Her beauty will surely drive those wealthy merchants and officials crazy... There's probably no woman more beautiful than Xiangxiang in the entire Black Dragon City, or even the entire Ouya Mei Continent—this is the conclusion Bai Yun drew from his short-term observations in Black Dragon City, known as the second largest city on the continent... This made Bai Yun cherish Xiangxiang even more; she's simply a miracle created by heaven..." "I believe in Yun Lang's abilities, but even if she stays here for the rest of her life, or anywhere else, as long as Yun Lang is with her, Xiangxiang will feel like the happiest person..." The incomparably beautiful girl nestled in Bai Yun's arms... A man should be happy to meet such a woman in his lifetime, and to have such a woman love him so deeply must be a blessing accumulated over tens of thousands of years... "Bai Yun tightly embraced the soft, jade-like body, thinking to himself... Yun Lang..." Hearing Bai Yun's thoughts, Xiangxiang happily wrapped her arms around his neck, bringing her moist, tender lips to his, her eyes filled with charm and deep affection... The two fiery bodies intertwined again... *******
With each strike of Bai Yun's hammer, the chisel would penetrate deeply into the ore, and soon a large, square piece of ore would fall out… According to Zhou Bapi, the ore Bai Yun was currently mining was the largest and most complete piece in the entire Black Stone Mine, and he also delivered the most each day. Therefore, the miners who knew him greatly admired him. Zhou Bapi, having received praise from his superiors and benefits from Bai Yun, had long since begun to treat Bai Yun differently, always giving him better treatment at meals… This was actually the effect Bai Yun wanted. Although he was outstanding, he wasn't overly prominent, to avoid attracting trouble. This principle of concealing one's abilities wasn't taught to him by anyone; he… But he also realized... some people are destined to be extraordinary... With another blow, a layer of rock crumbled away, radiating an unusual light... This light made Baiyun feel as if someone was watching him... "Eyes, it must be the finest of these black stones—'Eyes'..." Although Baiyun hadn't yet clearly seen the appearance of the ore, he was certain it was "Eyes"... Baiyun put down the hammer, brushed aside the rubble, and the soft, captivating light emanated from a perfectly round black stone sphere, giving one the feeling of being gazed upon. Based on his previous knowledge of gemstones, this was indeed the finest of black stones—"Eyes," and a... A "Gaze of the Eye" gem of considerable quality, far more precious than ordinary "Eye" gems... Taking the gem off and holding it in her hand, the cool, smooth feel was very comfortable, and the soft light brought a sense of peace... Truly a top-grade gem... Thinking that she could finally be free, Baiyun was overjoyed, her mouth agape. She wiped the gem, "Now I'll go tell Xiangxiang the good news, she'll jump for joy..." Thinking of Xiangxiang's captivating smile, Baiyun became even more excited...
Chapter Eight: Dragon Emerges from Shallows
When Baiyun stood up, she saw that the area around where the gem had appeared was still shimmering with light. "Now…" Could there be more gems? My luck can't be that good… Finding one "Gaze of the Eye" is rare enough, but if I find two… that would be…" Bai Yun was quite frightened by this thought… Calming his heartbeat and breathing, Bai Yun carefully used a chisel to chip away at the rock from the crack, removing a large slab of rock. The cave was instantly illuminated… "Oh my god, am I dreaming…" Bai Yun stared blankly at the glittering gems… There wasn't just one, but many, many… Round gems of various colors were arranged in regular patterns, forming three perfectly round circles. On a dark blue, unidentified ore, a mystical, multicolored light shimmered… This was only part of it; Baiyun saw the cylindrical edge protruding from the ore's surface, indicating there should be more below… Baiyun
took a deep breath, calming himself… He carefully began chiseling around the cylinder, and after about an hour, he finally saw the complete picture of the mysterious ore: a cylinder about half a meter high and thirty centimeters in diameter… The surface of the cylinder was regularly covered with various colored “eye” gemstones—though he wondered if these “eye” gemstones other than black should still be called that… Except for the lack of gems at the bottom, this cylinder contained a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine gems, all perfectly round and the size of eyeballs… Bai Yun had never heard of such a mineral before. Moreover, although it appeared man-made, after careful examination, Bai Yun discovered it was actually naturally formed… It was truly bizarre and mysterious… After observing it for a while, Bai Yun took off his clothes and wrapped the mineral in them, covered the empty hole with gravel, and, seeing no one around, ran into his dwelling with the mineral… Xiang Xiang was also stunned by this mysterious mineral. Although she had seen many gems, she had never seen such a mysterious and beautiful treasure. The entire cave was filled with this dreamlike… A dreamlike light filled the air, like a fairyland…” Xiangxiang, we’re free now, look…” Baiyun took out the “Gaze” gem. Xiangxiang instantly fell in love with its soft light, but remembering she had to exchange it for Baiyun’s freedom, she immediately pretended to be indifferent… Baiyun saw the sparkle in Xiangxiang’s eyes when she was happy, but said nothing, only deeply moved… Baiyun didn’t say anything either. After a while of tender moments, Baiyun returned to the mine… Happy as he was, Baiyun knew things had to be done step by step, not rushed… This “Gaze” gem couldn’t be handed over now. Once the gem is verified to be genuine, he must leave the mine that very day—even if he continues working as a stonemason, he will only be assigned to the free stonemason mining area… Before handing over the gem, Baiyun had many things to do: First, he needed to furnish his home in Black Dragon City and save some money—he would no longer work as a stonemason, and the mining area was too far from home; Xiangxiang's safety couldn't be guaranteed. Second, he needed to find a safe way to bring Xiangxiang to their new home in Black Dragon City. Finally, he needed to take the ore with him; if there was no opportunity, he would hide it and retrieve it later… Having decided what to do, Baiyun put his plan into action…
Bai Yun scooped out the rubble that had filled the pit where he had just discovered the cylindrical ore, and then chiseled downwards and around it... Just as he expected, he dug out more than forty "gazing eyes" around and below. Although he had already had that big surprise before, this discovery still made Bai Yun wonder if he was dreaming... This was too incredible! If he sold these gems, Bai Yun would be a huge millionaire… In the entire Black Stone Mine over the past four hundred years, only forty-two “Gazes” have been discovered. Of these, only four are “Gazing Gazes,” while the remaining thirty-six are simply “Gazes.” Two more are the legendary “Affectionate Gaze” and “Heartbreaking Gaze,” but their whereabouts are now unknown… Even a single ordinary “Gaze” is priceless, let alone a “Gazing Gaze”… And he’s acquired so many “Gazing Gazes” all at once—how could this not drive people crazy… Unable to dig out any more gems, Bai Yun tidied up the cave back to its original state… It was still early for lunch, and after confirming that the surroundings were indeed safe, Bai Yun quickly ran back to the cave with the gems wrapped in his clothes… “Xiangxiang, look what your husband brought back for you…” Bai Yun said to the beautiful woman who was nestled in his arms… Ah! So many gems, Yun Lang, what’s wrong with you today? "Xiangxiang stared incredulously at the pile of gems in her clothes. Girls have an innate fascination with gems..." "You like them, don't you? Brother Yun has given them all to you..." Baiyun looked at Xiangxiang, who was as delighted as a child, with doting eyes, and placed a gem in her small, soft palm... "Brother Yun is so good... Xiangxiang loves you so much..." Xiangxiang clutched the gem and threw herself into Baiyun's arms, giving him a passionate kiss... After their lips parted, Baiyun dressed and left the cave, returning to the mine to retrieve a clay pot and a portion of black stone. While making plans, he headed towards the food distribution point... He chatted briefly with Zhou Bapi and the other craftsmen, then gave Zhou Bapi a wink. Zhou Bapi understood this was the signal to wait by the river that night and nodded... Baiyun carried the brand-new clay pot back to the cave... After a passionate meal with Xiangxiang, Baiyun told her his plan while bathing. Xiangxiang agreed that this was a more reliable approach... Thus, Baiyun became even more determined... After collecting his food, Baiyun... By the river, Bai Yun handed Zhou Bapi a black stone about two fingers square, which made Zhou Bapi ecstatic. He exclaimed, "You're really something, kid! You're really amazing! You know, because of its special texture, these black stones are usually very small, only about the size of a thumb, but they're still very expensive... A stonemason's daily quota is only about the size of a thumb, and the weight is equivalent to a gold ingot... It's very difficult to quarry a whole stone this size, so it's extremely precious. Selling it would be enough to buy a large courtyard and two maids..." Zhou Bapi couldn't help but be happy... "Let's have some fun tomorrow... Brother's treating..." Zhou Bapi said with a beaming smile... "Thank you, Brother Zhou, how could I let you spend so much? I'll treat you another day..." Bai Yun said politely, actually knowing that Zhou Bapi was just saying that and wouldn't really treat him... "Okay, another day..." Zhou Bapi left happily... Bai Yun watched his retreating figure with a cold smile, then turned and left... Bai Yun was in a month... During that time, Bai Yun sold a large quantity of black stones at Ruixiang Pawnshop in Black Dragon City. Since Bai Yun was a regular customer, there was no small talk; the owner immediately gave him 200,000 taels of silver and asked him to patronize his business in the future… This was a major customer! Bai Yun's sales would net him over 500,000 taels in profit. The owner thought he was dreaming… Little did he know that this was just a drop in the ocean for Bai Yun… Bai Yun was very careful when doing this, always hunching over, wearing a fake beard, and even adding scars and moles to his face. It was also at night, and the other party knew the rules, so they didn't know what Bai Yun actually looked like… Slaves were already guilty of crimes if they went out without permission, but selling black stones privately was an even more heinous crime… The black stone mine owner himself held a title, wielding immense power and wealth. Black Dragon City prospered because of this black stone mine, and the tax revenue he paid to the state was staggering. Therefore, the black stone mine wasn't just privately owned; it practically belonged to the state… Who could afford to offend him? Although many people were involved in smuggling, Bai Yun dared not be careless... After changing his appearance, Bai Yun cleaned his new home and bought some furniture, food, and household items... His new home deep in the alley began to feel like home... One night, Bai Yun, carrying the bag of "Gaze of the Eyes," and Xiang Xiang, dressed as a man and made up, slipped into two empty oil barrels and escaped the mining area. They secretly got off the train in a deserted alley in Black Dragon City, wandering through the streets and alleys until they reached their new home in an unnamed alley. Seeing this new environment, Xiang Xiang was overjoyed and kept kissing Bai Yun... Their passionate night was inevitable... The next morning, they returned to the mining area with the grain cart... The following night, Bai Yun also brought the cylindrical ore home, hiding it in the cellar he had dug, and returned with the grain cart the next day... With everything ready, on the morning of the third day, Bai Yun placed the remaining black stones from the mine in the secret cave, then smashed the four sides of the cave and used stones... They sealed it off, then filled and collapsed the outer cave with stones… Now, everything inside is a secret forever… Bai Yun, shouting and yelling, ran to the stone-collecting station with the “gazing eye” in his hand. Zhou Bapi and the stone collector were dumbfounded when they saw it… It took the stone collector a while to recover and then excitedly took it to the main collection office for authentication… Zhou Bapi was ecstatic. If it was genuine, he could get a huge reward, and he immediately showered Bai Yun with praise… Less than half an hour later, the man ran back grinning, excitedly shouting, “It’s really real, it’s real!”… Afterwards, Bai Yun followed the two to receive a contract proving his freedom, and even received a small reward… After gaining his freedom, Bai Yun pretended to leave the mine reluctantly. Zhou Bapi even invited him to come back for drinks, and Bai Yun hypocritically agreed—Bai Yun never wanted to see that ugly face again, although in some ways he had to thank him…
Chapter Nine: Xiang Xiang is Pregnant
In the blink of an eye, Baiyun and Xiangxiang had been living in their new home in the nameless alley of Black Dragon City for over three months. They rarely left the house, spending most of their time in their bedroom, indulging in passionate lovemaking, their sweet and sensual moments need no further elaboration… Perhaps due to the good environment and their good mood, their cultivation had advanced to the fifth level, "Dual Flight of Clouds and Rain." A single glance between them would send a surge of heat through their bodies, gathering in their dantian… Xiangxiang's beauty had surpassed all others, captivating anyone with a single look, yet also possessing a pure and ethereal quality that made one hesitant to look directly at her—however, for Baiyun, the effect was far less pronounced… In his eyes, it was always this beautiful girl seducing him… Xiangxiang's magical power had also recovered; she could now become invisible and move objects, but still couldn't fly… …Bai Yun, however, only grew more handsome, and his seemingly wicked smile occasionally captivated many young girls and mature women when he accompanied Xiang Xiang, who was made up in ugly makeup, to the night market… This caused the gentle and beautiful Xiang Xiang to gently twist his arm… Dual cultivation was so miraculous, and the two of them could go without sleep for several days, their lovemaking lasting all night long, day and night, even eating together… Whether measured by time or frequency, the frequency of Bai Yun and Xiang Xiang's lovemaking was unprecedented, unparalleled, and the first in history—if Bai Yun didn't have things to do every few days, the two of them would probably have been together for a whole month, merging into one… At the beginning of this fourth month, Xiang Xiang discovered she was pregnant—the Flower Spirit Woman After becoming pregnant, a flower pattern appears on the navel, with the navel as the stamen. On Xiangxiang's snow-white belly, a red and blue double-petaled flower appeared. Overjoyed, Baiyun didn't recognize the flower… "Xiangxiang, what kind of flower is this? Why are there two layers of different colored petals…?" Baiyun knelt between Xiangxiang's alluring white legs as she sat on the couch, carefully examining the unknown flower, gently stroking the beautiful pattern with his fingers… "Yunlang, this is the sacred flower in our Flower Spirit Kingdom's legends. I've seen it in the ancient texts… This flower is called 'Beautiful Dream.' Legend says that whoever finds one of these Beautiful Dreams can have a wish granted… This flower appears on every pregnant woman in Flower Spirit Kingdom. Different flowers, different fates, different colors…" "Same, different genders... The more precious the flower, the more noble the destiny of the child born... Ordinary flower spirit women will have purple bell flowers, bamboo cotton flowers, flying silk flowers, grass stamen flowers, etc., appear on their bellies during pregnancy. Better ones will have phoenix flowers, smiling sleep flowers, long-lasting flowers, etc. Generally, light colors indicate a boy, and dark colors indicate a girl; when our mother was pregnant with us, she had the golden hibiscus, the national flower of our flower spirits. Gold indicates a girl, and silver indicates a boy... But I have never seen this legendary sacred flower appear after pregnancy. Yun Lang, I think our child will surely become a powerful figure when he grows up... This double-petaled, two-colored flower means we are twins... Brother Yun, we will have two lovely little babies to play with..." Xiangxiang's eyes were full of the holiness of a mother. Her radiance and gentleness, yet her face was as tender as a sixteen-year-old girl… A girl growing into a mother might only take a moment… Thank you, Xiangxiang… “The white cloud kissed the beautiful flower…” Brother Cloud, Xiangxiang should thank you, you gave Xiangxiang a baby, you don’t know how much Xiangxiang loves the baby… “Xiangxiang gently cupped her lover’s head in her hands, and offered her fragrant lips, the two shared a deep kiss…” Brother Cloud, the appearance of this flower means the child is already three months old. A month after this flower appears, when the baby is four months old, Xiangxiang will begin her “spring hibernation.” After “spring hibernation,” she may wake up once every three months. During “spring hibernation,” I will use the Flower Spirit Secret Technique to subtly insert acupoint behind your ear… We will cultivate together in another way. If you call my name, we can communicate telepathically… The “Spring Sleep” will last for three years, and the baby will be born when the moon is full… Then we can reunite… Brother Yun, I know you can’t bear to part with me, and I can’t bear to leave you even for a moment, but for the sake of the baby, we can only separate temporarily. Actually, we are still together, just in a different form… “Xiangxiang is also very reluctant, but a mother can’t abandon her child for her own sake…” Xiangxiang, our love isn’t just for this moment. Our lives are long. A short separation will make our reunion feel even happier and more precious. And we have two children; we will become parents. What a wonderful thing that is… You naughty little… Even the younger sister understands the principle of letting go, so how could the older brother not understand… “Baiyun lovingly kissed his suddenly grown-up little wife…” Brother Yun, the spring night is short, take advantage of this month of free time to cherish your Xiangxiang sister… “Xiangxiang lay naked and alluring on the couch, her slender, snow-white, rounded legs spread wide, her small hands pressing Baiyun’s head against the fragrant, pink, tender spot between her legs…” Is that alright? “Baiyun’s tongue licked the sweet fragrance on the slightly open bud, murmuring softly… Xiangxiang didn’t speak, but after a soul-stirring moan, she used her two snow-white, tender legs to entwine with Baiyun, locking him tightly in that mysterious and alluring honeyed spot…” A month later, Xiangxiang, who had been sleeplessly and obsessively entwined with Baiyun for a whole month, and… After a deep kiss, Baiyun bid farewell. Xiangxiang vanished behind Baiyun's ear like a wisp of smoke... Looking in the mirror, he noticed a bright red mole behind his left ear. Touching it gently, a warm, bone-deep connection welled up within him. "Brother Yun, Xiangxiang is going to sleep... You must take good care of yourself. You should also find some good women for dual cultivation, otherwise it will affect your cultivation and health... When you miss me, press this red mole and call out 'Xiangxiang' three times in your heart, and I will speak to you in my mind... Okay, Brother Yun, Xiangxiang will cultivate with you in my dreams... Hehe!" Xiangxiang's voice faded, and Baiyun knew she had fallen asleep... But Baiyun was puzzled, wondering what Xiangxiang meant by asking him to find women for dual cultivation.
Xiangxiang slept for three years, and although they could see each other once every three months, the time was still very short... Baiyun had a huge sum of money and so many gems in his pocket; if he sold them, he could be considered an absolute tycoon—no other tycoon had so many "staring eyes," not even the royal family... With Xiangxiang by his side, Baiyun naturally didn't think about doing anything else, but now Baiyun felt he needed to accomplish something in these three years. First, Baiyun wanted to become a master jeweler, not just an ordinary jeweler, but a renowned master jeweler... Why did he want to do this? Baiyun had long ago... He had thought about it… First, he wanted to personally make a piece of jewelry for Xiangxiang inlaid with the "Gaze of Contemplation," something Xiangxiang had longed for. Baiyun couldn't possibly hire someone outside; it was too dangerous. Making it himself was best, as he would not only know Xiangxiang's preferences but also be able to infuse it with his own love… Second, he couldn't let Xiangxiang and him live this clandestine, shadowy life forever. Women far less attractive than Xiangxiang could enjoy boundless glamour, while the incredibly beautiful Xiangxiang didn't even dare to show her face in public. Although Xiangxiang didn't care, he, a two-meter-tall, dignified man with a large fortune, was letting his wife live like this! He had to change this situation. Baiyun wanted to build his own power within these three years, to ensure his newborn child and their mother lived a life of luxury and happiness, getting whatever they wanted… What could he do to achieve this? The jewelry industry! Black Dragon City's jewelry is even more famous than its specialty, black stone. In the entire Ouyamei region, and even on other continents, no commodity is more popular or precious than Black Dragon City's jewelry… Black Dragon City's six major jewelry shops: Qingfengxuan, Mingyuezhai, Guiqifang, Zhuguangbaoqi, Tianxia Jewelry, Wantong Jewelry… These shops are all well-known businesses in China, with branches throughout the country. Which of their owners isn't a renowned figure, protected by the government and untouchable? Once Baiyun becomes such a person, he can legitimately take Xiangxiang out, and openly sell those gems. Thirdly, Xiangxiang wants to go home but lacks the ability and method. However, if he has enough power and influence, perhaps he can find some capable individuals to solve this problem. Money can not only grant him freedom but also connect him to the highest levels of society… This is Baiyun's summary of his experiences these past few days… Because of this idea, a new, powerful emperor has emerged in the jewelry world…
Chapter Ten: Jinbao Street
Jinbao Street, the most bustling main street in Heilongcheng, was teeming with people and horses, a truly lively scene… A tall, handsome young man in a white robe walked along the right side of this north-south road. Because he was a head taller than others and possessed a striking appearance, he attracted the attention of women and the stares of men… Everywhere he looked, he was met with admiring and jealous glances… The young man, however, seemed oblivious, lightly waving his folding fan and occasionally flashing a wicked, wicked smile, leaving countless young women and women sleepless tonight… Without a doubt, this young man was Baiyun… Almost every… All the jewelry shops were located on Jinbao Street, so Baiyun decided to check them out... These jewelry shops were generally doing very well, with countless handsome men and beautiful women, and wealthy merchants flocking to Black Dragon City to buy jewelry for their wives or themselves; only jewelry could satisfy their inflated vanity... After walking for a while, Baiyun grew a little tired. Ahead was a "Ruyi Teahouse," and he casually went up to the second floor... "Sir, how many are in your party?" The waiter, seeing the young man's distinguished appearance and luxurious attire, hurriedly came forward, speaking politely... "Prepared to the utmost..." One person, a window seat... "Bai Yun said casually, 'I've been frequenting these places lately, and I'm not as reserved as I was at the beginning... I have quite the air of a gentleman...' 'This way, sir...' The waiter led Bai Yun to a table by the window... This spot offered a panoramic view of the street, and also a distant view of Qingming Mountain and the pagoda forest of Baita Temple... Bai Yun sighed, withdrew his gaze, and glanced around the building. He noticed that most of the guests were looking at him, and when they saw him looking at them, they all looked away... Bai Yun sat down..." "Come down..." Sir, what kind of tea would you like? "The waiter waiting on the side asked respectfully... "Biluochun, please..." Baiyun looked at the bustling street outside the window, really wanting some tea... Baiyun sighed inwardly... "Sir, the tea is here, please enjoy..." The waiter placed the tea on the table and poured half a cup for Baiyun... Suddenly, Baiyun saw a large group of people blocking the street in the distance, shouting and yelling, not knowing what they were doing... "Waiter, what are those people doing?" Baiyun asked... "Sir, you don't know, today is the auction of jewelry made by the disciple of Master Lin of Mingyuezhai." Yes, Master Lin is known as the foremost master of jewelry. His creations are purchased by royalty and wealthy merchants, fetching astronomical prices. Despite this, his exceptional craftsmanship means they are always in high demand, and owners consider them symbols of status… Master Lin used to make ten pieces a year, but this year he suddenly stopped making jewelry, making even his apprentice Huang Yueming's work a rarity… Actually, it's far inferior to his master's… But look, people still rushed over from afar to buy them… "The waiter is quite impressed with Huang Yueming…" Master Lin is now in the city… "Want a place to stay?" Bai Yun handed a silver ingot to the waiter and asked... "Thank you, sir... Old Master Lin lives in Sima Hutong on Qingming Street in the south of the city, the one with the red gate, but I heard he never sees guests..." The waiter was extremely grateful and explained carefully... "Waiter, how do you know so much?" Bai Yun asked curiously... "I'm quite interested in jewelry, so I usually pay close attention to news in this area..." The waiter replied respectfully... "What's your name?" Bai Yun thought the waiter was quite clever and couldn't help but ask... "My name is Li Yuanfeng..." "Please enjoy your meal, sir..." The waiter busied himself attending to other customers... Bai Yun drank half a pot of tea, gazed at the scenery for a while... and decided to go find Mr. Lin, regardless of whether he would see him or not... He got up to pay the bill, and the waiter came forward. "Sir, I've already paid for you..." the waiter whispered, his voice filled with gratitude... A silver ingot was nothing to Bai Yun, but for this waiter, it was probably more than he could earn in half a year... "Good..." Bai Yun was very pleased. A pot of tea wasn't a large sum of money, but it was rare to find a waiter who was so considerate... Bai Yun nodded to him, smiling... I leisurely arrived at the southern part of the city. Qingming Street, at the foot of Qingming Mountain, wasn't as crowded as Jinbao Street; it was very quiet. It was early summer, and everything was vibrant with life. Occasionally, a young woman would walk by, leaving a fragrant breeze—it felt very pleasant. Baiyun sat on a stone bench under the shade of a tree for a while, admiring the nearby Qingming Mountain, gently fanning herself with a folding fan, thoroughly enjoying herself. She then closed her eyes to rest for a bit, attracting the attention of many passing women, before energetically walking into Sima Hutong not far away. No wonder the waiter said that the one with the red gate was the best in the entire hutong. There was only one storefront in the area with such a large door, and only this one was red… In China, only those of high status and position could use red doors, while the imperial family used red doors with gold studs… This Mr. Lin was undoubtedly a prominent figure… Bai Yun should have realized this long ago… Bai Yun knocked on the door, and after a while, footsteps sounded inside. With a creak, an old face appeared. “Who are you looking for?” the old man asked tremulously. Bai Yun was worried he might stumble over his words… “I am Bai Yun, here to pay my respects to Mr. Lin…” "Old sir...please inform him..." Bai Yun bowed respectfully and said... "These etiquettes are things I've recently learned, and they're essential to know..." "I'm sorry, Mr. Bai, Mr. Lin isn't home; he's out..." The old man trembled, his wrinkled face and white beard shaking... "I see...Then, sir, when will Mr. Lin return?" Bai Yun helped the old man up; the old man, leaning against the door, swayed... "That's hard to say. He might return at any time; sometimes he comes, sometimes he doesn't." "Come..." the old man said with difficulty... "Do you know where Mr. Lin is going?" Bai Yun asked, supporting the old man's body... "This old man doesn't know, he never says..." Bai Yun felt that the old man was about to collapse, trembling incessantly... "Then I won't bother you any longer, I'll come to visit another day... Old man, are you alright? Or should I call a doctor to take a look at you?" Bai Yun said worriedly... "Thank you, Mr. Bai... I'm fine, it's just an old ailment, I'll be fine after a rest... Take care..." The man shakily closed the door... Baiyun had no choice but to come back tomorrow... Baiyun had made up her mind to become this old Mr. Lin's apprentice, and with that plan in mind, there was no need to run around aimlessly... Since she had already arrived at the foot of Qingming Mountain, she might as well go up and explore, enjoying the mountain scenery... Thinking of this, Baiyun started walking towards Qingming Mountain... It was a good season for sightseeing, and there were quite a few people going up the mountain, with men and women in colorful clothes, noble ladies and young ladies coming and going... It seemed that they weren't just sightseeing, but also probably praying and offering incense... The Hundred Pagoda Temple on Qingming Mountain was very famous. The incense offerings must be very prosperous... Baiyun will definitely go to the Hundred Pagoda Temple to take a look...
Baiyun didn't care about the various stares from passersby, admiring the lush trees and flowing stream. It was indeed beautiful, but with so many people, it lacked tranquility; otherwise, it would be even more beautiful... Baiyun thought to herself... Baiyun knew she was very beautiful, and Xiangxiang was a little jealous because of it... But Baiyun didn't care at all. If it weren't for Xiangxiang's appearance, she was afraid she would have already left this world. Her previous life had no meaning... But after Xiangxiang came along... She found meaning in life, became hopeful, and had the passion to live. Because of Xiangxiang, she learned about love and warmth, how to appreciate beauty, and how to adapt to her environment, learn, and change her circumstances. Xiangxiang also allowed her to experience ultimate sweetness and happiness, and gave her a physique far superior to most people. Without Xiangxiang, she would have nothing, and wouldn't even exist… Therefore, Baiyun doesn't care about her appearance; she values her heart more… a heart that will forever beat only for the beautiful Xiangxiang. …All other matters were of no concern to Baiyun… He could now face everything calmly, except for Xiangxiang… Ahead lay the Hundred Pagoda Temple, its wide gates wide open, welcoming men and women coming and going… Upon entering the gates, the air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood, instantly transporting him away from the mundane world. Many people came and went, yet there was no clamor, only the chanting and wooden fish sounds from the distant temple, and the enchanting chirping of mountain birds… Truly a renowned temple, extraordinary indeed…
Chapter Eleven: A Divine Hand Appears . He
offered incense, prayed to Buddha, although Baiyun, ever since learning of Xiangxiang's background… After that, he didn't really believe all those claims. Those people were probably just more powerful than the Flower Spirits... But he was still very devout and didn't mean any disrespect. After all, they were seniors, and respecting elders and the virtuous was a duty he had to fulfill... The pagoda forest of Baita Temple was magnificent and imposing, giving people a sense of historical vicissitudes and a great sense of awe... Just as Baiyun finished viewing the pagoda forest and was about to go back, he suddenly heard a clanging sound coming from afar. Baiyun was very familiar with this sound; it was the sound of iron hitting stone... Strange, why would there be such a sound in this solemn temple?
Following the sound, Baiyun slowly arrived behind the mountain. It was quite a distance from the Pagoda Forest; only Baiyun's ears could probably hear such a distant sound… Inside a doorless stone hut, an elderly man in his fifties, dressed in grey, sat in front of a chair, meticulously carving a stone statue. His face was solemn, his gaze sharp as a knife as he focused on the carving. His demeanor didn't resemble that of a stonemason, but rather that of a warrior preparing for battle… The old man seemed unaware of Baiyun's arrival, so Baiyun stood nearby watching him carve… The old man was carving an Arhat statue. From the completed section, it was clear that Baiyun had just seen this Arhat in the hall… Baiyun realized the old man was a master; regardless of the depth of the carving, he completed it in a single strike, without modification, his control of force incredibly precise. In no time, the Arhat's head was finished, lifelike, exuding an overwhelming aura of power… Impressive, Baiyun secretly admired. He had seen black stone carvings before… "The craftsman is far inferior to this old man..." The old man is truly a master; this Arhat statue is sculpted so vividly... "Baiyun sincerely praised... "I'm old now, not like before. I need to rest several times before I can finish sculpting, but this statue can only be completed in one go, allowing my heart and spirit to flow freely. If I stop, it loses its perfect unity..." the old man sighed... Gazing at the statue, Baiyun felt as if he were looking at the past... "Young man, how did you get here?" the old man asked... "I just wandered over and happened to see you..." Baiyun said frankly... "You live here?" Baiyun looked around and saw no houses nearby... "No, I live at the foot of the mountain. I come here to work during the day and go back to rest at night..." The old man felt a strong connection with the young man and said gently... "Then you eat at the temple..." Baiyun guessed that the old man worked for the temple... "Yes, the abbot of this temple and I know each other very well. I'm helping him." "Yes…" the old man said with a smile, looking at Baiyun… "If I'm not mistaken, you must be Senior Lin, right?" Baiyun suddenly said… "You're right, it is indeed this old man, Lin Qingyuan… But young man, how did you know?" Lin Qingyuan smiled and nodded, his eyes full of affection as he looked at Baiyun… "Junior Baiyun greets Uncle Lin…" Baiyun felt the kindness and warmth in Mr. Lin's eyes and was delighted, so he bowed in greeting… "Good, good, I'll accept you as my nephew…" Lin Qingyuan laughed heartily… "Uncle Lin, it's like this… Today, I visited your home, but my family said you were out, for an indefinite period. Just now, I saw that you had excellent control over the hammer's power during your carving, and the way you held the chisel felt like you were holding a carving knife, so I guessed that you must have been a master jewelry maker…" Baiyun said cautiously, this was a good opportunity for him to become an apprentice, and also a test from Mr. Lin… "Haha, your judgment is excellent." "Wrong, Nephew Bai... It's a pity I've already sealed my hammer, otherwise I would have given you a set of jewelry as you wished..." The old man smiled, looking at Bai Yun's clothes, he thought he was going to have jewelry made... "Uncle Lin, you misunderstand, I've come to ask you to be my apprentice..." Bai Yun said solemnly... "Apprentice? Nephew Bai, don't say I'm not planning to take any more apprentices, even if I did, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to endure the hardship, you wouldn't pass my test..." The old man sighed... "Uncle Lin, I can certainly endure the hardship, but I don't know what test you're talking about?" Bai Yun said... "The apprentice I want to take must be able to inherit my mantle and carry forward my skills... So, unlike ordinary craftsmen, what we need to do is become a master, so my requirements are: the strength to lift half a thousand pieces of wood, the keenness to see the smallest details, the keenness to distinguish the weight, and the ability to work for three days and three nights without sleep..." Lin Qingyuan said... "Uncle Lin, is that all?" Bai Yun was secretly delighted...
"That's all..." Lin Qingyuan felt that this requirement was something no one had met in decades. Even if there were martial arts masters who could meet this standard, they might not be willing to be a craftsman... "Master, please accept my bow..." Bai Yun bowed upon hearing this...
"You can?" Lin Qingyuan asked in surprise...
"Your disciple can..." Bai Yun said respectfully...
"Can you tell what this pattern is?" Lin Qingyuan took out a small seal and handed it to Baiyun... "It's a chrysanthemum pattern. Clouds are carved on the stamens of the chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms are carved within the clouds. Each plum blossom has five stamens, and a crescent moon is carved on each stamen..." Baiyun glanced at it and said... "...Lin Qingyuan's mouth gaped open, speechless. In fact, he could only barely see the plum blossoms; even his master could only see the stamens. He couldn't believe Baiyun could see the crescent moon. It was said that no one except the creator of this pattern had ever seen it—it required incredible eyesight... Yet this boy, who looked no more than seventeen or eighteen, had seen it... Unbelievable..." Was it that difficult? Master... "Fu…" Baiyun asked, looking at Lin Qingyuan's dumbfounded expression… "This… Haha, heavens have opened their eyes… I finally have a disciple, haha…" Lin Qingyuan laughed wildly, scaring away all the birds in the forest. Who had ever seen such a terrifying lunatic… Now it was Baiyun's turn to be dumbfounded… Was it really necessary? "Baiyun thought to herself… After laughing, Lin Qingyuan ignored the Arhat statue, grabbed Baiyun, and ran down the mountain. A wisp of white smoke passed by, startling countless dust particles and ghostly gazes…" Come on, disciple, have a drink…" Lin Qingyuan downed a cup…" Come on, disciple, eat some food…" Baiyun's plate was piled high with food…" Come on, disciple, have another cup…" Old man Lin downed another cup…" Come on, disciple…"
"Come on, disciple…"
…Looking at Lin Qingyuan, who was fast asleep under the table, Bai Yun sighed helplessly, “Finding a disciple isn’t easy…” “Uncle Lin, Master has fallen asleep, I’m going back…” Bai Yun greeted the trembling Uncle Lin and walked out of Sima Hutong… A month later, Bai Yun won first place in the Black Dragon City Jewelry Competition with a set of “Contemplation” black stone jewelry without any controversy.
