The Carefree Little Immortal (Complete) - 12

"It's over there! Look over there!" Shui Ruo practically jumped, pointing and shouting in a certain direction. Xiao Xuan turned his head slightly and saw an incredibly tall and unimaginably magnificent bamboo in the far distance, standing out like

a crane among chickens in the center of the bamboo sea. Beside it, a magnificent rainbow arched across the bamboo sea and landed on the cliff of the canyon.

"Strictly speaking, the real Giant Bamboo Valley is below," He Tianpeng said with a smile.

"That giant bamboo must be Tai Bi, one of the nineteen spiritual veins of the earth?" Xiao Xuan murmured. "

Of course! Where else in the world besides Tai Bi is there such a wondrous bamboo!" He Tianpeng said coldly. "

Mother is right. This is indeed one of the most beautiful places in the world." Shui Ruo sighed softly, as if in a trance.

"A small stone tablet can hide such a vast world within it. Could this be the legendary 'Sun and Moon in a Pot, Sumeru in a Mustard Seed'?" Xiao Xuan muttered to himself, as if he had just realized something.

"Don't be so clever! Didn't I just say that the stone tablet is only one of the entrances here?" He Tianpeng said sarcastically.

"Impossible... then where is this Giant Bamboo Valley? Is there some kind of magic that can hide such a large place?" Xiao Xuan couldn't help but argue.

He Tianpeng sneered and said calmly, "It's true that you're just an ordinary mortal! First, as far as I know, there is more than one kind of magic in the world that can hide mountains, rivers, and even the sun, moon, and stars into nothingness. Second, this Giant Bamboo Valley is not hidden by magic. The reason why people can't see it is simply because it is neither heaven nor earth, but a crack between heaven and earth."

"A crack between heaven and earth? A crack that big?" Xiao Xuan gasped.

"This place is indeed not small, but how big is heaven and earth? Tell me." He Tianpeng sneered.

Xiao Xuan was stunned. How big is heaven and earth? How can anyone say for sure?

He Tianpeng then added softly, "Forget it, it's pointless to explain these profound truths to you, it's just a waste of breath."

Xiao Xuan was choked by his repeated sarcastic remarks, his face turning pale. He was furious and about to lash out when Shui Ruo stepped in front of him and secretly squeezed his hand lightly.

"Serves you right, who told you to say hurtful things in the car? Now you're getting your comeuppance," Shui Ruo said with a soft laugh.

Upon seeing her charming smile, Xiao Xuan's anger subsided considerably. Now that he had calmed down, he realized he had almost fallen for her trick and nearly lost his composure in front of her. So he ignored He Tianpeng's provocations.

"That rainbow is so beautiful, shall we go take a look?" Shui Ruo quickly tried to distract them, afraid that things would really get ugly.

He Tianpeng had the upper hand this time and was secretly pleased with himself. He said with a beaming smile, "Sure, we need to go down that way to enter the valley, I'll take you there." He then walked ahead with Shui Ruo.

The next stretch of road began to slope slightly downwards, and after several turns, they indeed reached one end of the rainbow. The entire cliff face was illuminated by a kaleidoscope of colors, a dreamlike and breathtakingly beautiful sight.

Shui Ruo exclaimed softly, pointing to the opposite cliff face, "How can this be? It looks just like silk!"

Xiao Xuan stared intently, seeing that the rainbow that had fallen onto the cliff face did not disappear as usual; its tail seemed to drape down the cliff face as if it were solid, indeed like silk.

"That's right, this rainbow has been here for who knows how long, it has never faded. It is no ordinary rainbow. I wonder if it is because it was born from the Tai Bi, and it has solidified into a tangible form," He Tianpeng said with a smile.

"Is that really true? Legend has it that the celestial fairies wear clothes made of clouds and mist," Shui Ruo said dreamily.

Xiao Xuan was also captivated by the extreme beauty before him, murmuring, "If that's really the case, then I'll go and pick a piece for you to make a dress." Shui

Ruo gave him a sweet glance, but knew that this was just a joke.

Upon hearing Xiao Xuan's words, He Tianpeng's heart skipped a beat, a glint of something strange flashing in his eyes. He suddenly said, "This isn't impossible, because I once saw someone in this valley wearing clothes made of this rainbow."

"Really?" Xiao Xuan's face lit up with excitement, looking eager to try it out.

"Absolutely no lie. Oh, I remember now, it was one of the young master's concubines in this valley who wore it. Tsk tsk tsk, it was truly beautiful!" He Tianpeng spoke with great conviction.

Shui Ruo listened with envy, her face filled with longing as she gazed at the rainbow before her.

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded. She stared at the opposite cliff, judging the distance, estimating it to be about ten zhang away. She thought to herself, "This isn't too difficult, but the bottom is as deep as a thousand zhang. Falling down would be no joke..."

"Alas, such a rainbow-colored garment is not something we mortals can afford," He Tianpeng sighed, glancing sideways at Xiao Xuan.

"If Shui Ruo likes it so much, what's a little risk for me..." Xiao Xuan's palms were slightly sweaty, then he remembered, "That's right, Yao Yao only has one piece of gauze. If I could get a piece of rainbow to make her a dress, haha, I wonder how happy she would be."

Shui Ruo glanced at him and noticed his strange expression, his face sometimes excited and sometimes nervous. She was startled and said, "What are you doing?"

Before she finished speaking, she saw Xiao Xuan leap off the cliff and fly towards the opposite cliff like a bird.

Shui Ruo's face turned pale. She quickly gathered her Water Spirit True Qi and used the Tide Dance to sweep him away, but she missed.

"Wait patiently, I'll pick a piece of rainbow for you to make a dress..." A man's voice came from the wind.

"Fool!" Shui Ruo shouted, her heart leaping into her throat.

He Tianpeng, however, chuckled and was overjoyed: "You brat, you're dead this time!" Seemingly afraid of something, he unconsciously took a half step back.

Xiao Xuan channeled his true fire energy, using the momentum of his leap to glide through the air, feeling an unparalleled thrill and excitement. Just as he was about to exhaust himself, he finally reached the opposite cliff face. He hurriedly reached out and grabbed, and sure enough, he tore off a large piece of the solidified rainbow. Overjoyed, he began to fall.

Shui Ruo was so shocked she almost cried out. Suddenly, she saw the man flick his arm, and a long crimson whip suddenly appeared from his sleeve, wrapping around a protruding rock on the cliff face like a pair of eyes. Then, with a powerful swing, he leaped back towards them.

It turned out that all of this was calculated by Xiao Xuan before his leap, each step ingenious yet extremely dangerous. The slightest mistake at any point would have resulted in his annihilation.

Xiao Xuan strode forward, as if walking on the wind, his robes fluttering, and with the giant rainbow behind him, he displayed a rare and agile beauty.

"I never knew Xiao Xuan was so handsome..." Shui Ruo was mesmerized, her gaze glued to her beloved's dashing figure. The more she looked, the more she loved him. Seeing him about to leap back onto the cliff, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and happily reached out to catch him.

Unexpectedly, a strange change occurred. A clear and melodious cry suddenly echoed through the air, startling the three of them. Shui Ruo looked in the direction of the sound and saw an enormous bird fly out of the rainbow, its long, dazzling tail flames trailing behind it as it swooped down.

She was slightly startled, then realized what was happening. Her face drained of color, and she shouted urgently to her lover, "Quickly, throw away the rainbow!"

Xiao Xuan was in the air, his back to the giant bird, and didn't react for a moment. In

the blink of an eye, the giant bird was at the edge of the cliff. It was a spirit phoenix with flames all over its body, its wings, nearly three zhang long, suddenly flapping out.

Xiao Xuan suddenly felt an overwhelming force sweep over him, sending him flying far away. He tumbled twice in the air before plummeting headlong into the abyss...

Shui Ruo was also caught in the gust of wind, her entire body thrown into the air like a broken piece of cotton, just about to crash into a giant bamboo when she was suddenly caught around the waist by He Tianpeng.

The giant phoenix spun in the air, creating a vortex of brilliant flames, and chased after him with a sharp cry, an explosive wave of terrifying power spreading outwards.

"Heavens! It's such a powerful spirit! Its might is even stronger than Third Master Uncle's mount!"

Shui Ruo was terrified and struggled to shout, "Let go!"

"Don't go! It's the Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix guarding Tai Bi. Even a hundred of us couldn't defeat it." He Tianpeng held her tightly.

"Let go!" Shui Ruo screamed like a madwoman, suddenly using an ice spike technique to pierce the man's tight arm. She ran towards the cliff edge in a daze, and when she reached the edge, she saw the giant phoenix fall like a shooting star, plunging headfirst into the bamboo forest, bursting into a huge cloud of flame-like light. She was stunned.

He Tianpeng caught up and held Shui Ruo tightly again, as if afraid she would fall.

Shui Ruo stared blankly down below, her soul suddenly breaking and her heart shattering: "Even if he wasn't hurt by that giant bird, he'd probably... he'd probably be... shattered to pieces by

now..." He Tianpeng peered down into the valley, inhaling deeply: "These kinds of spirit birds and beasts that specifically guard divine objects are indeed terrifyingly powerful. I've finally witnessed it today."

Shui Ruo suddenly turned around, tears streaming down her face, and cried out: "Since you knew there was that evil bird here, why didn't you say so earlier?"

"I... I didn't know your junior brother would touch that rainbow. It's where that divine bird usually plays, and I thought he would know that most divine objects are guarded by spirit birds and beasts, how could one touch them casually? Alas..." He Tianpeng said innocently.

Shui Ruo froze, feeling utterly helpless in an instant, and suddenly threw herself onto the man's shoulder, bursting into tears.

He Tianpeng felt a surge of wild joy, his gaze lingering on the girl's delicate earlobe, almost unable to resist kissing it.

"I need to find him." Shui Ruo suddenly raised her head and sobbed weakly, "Young Master He, please take me down to find him."

He Tianpeng nodded vigorously, his face also showing grief, but inwardly he was secretly laughing: "Can we still find him? I'm afraid that kid is already dead!"

************

The little Xuan soul was not attached to her body. The moment she fell into the bamboo forest, she desperately swung the eight-clawed fire dragon whip wrapped around her arm, hoping to grab onto something to slow her fall. She heard the sound of branches breaking and cracking. Her body did pause for a few moments, but she still crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up a large amount of dry leaves and dust.

His internal organs felt as if they were ruptured, and his whole body was wracked with pain. He didn't know where he was injured or how badly he was hurt, only that he was still alive. He cried out in relief, "Thank goodness! Luckily, this bamboo forest is dense enough, otherwise I would be dead..."

In his dizzy and disoriented state, he suddenly saw a bright flame above him. Knowing something was wrong, he rolled to the side with all his might. In an instant, a terrifying sound of countless bamboo and wood exploding rang out behind him, and a dazzling flame illuminated a large area of the dark bamboo forest.

Xiao Xuan, pale-faced, secretly got up and took advantage of the chaos to run away, hoping that the strange bird hadn't seen him.

But the Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix was extremely agile and immediately noticed him. With a sharp cry, it flapped its wings and flew back into the air, chasing its prey low in the bamboo forest.

Xiao Xuan was closely watched and locked on. He ran east and west for his life, but his speed was far too slow. Not only could he not escape, but the bird was also getting closer and closer. Fortunately, the dense bamboo forest provided cover, and he narrowly avoided the deadly attack several times.

The Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix followed closely, its powerful aura startling countless creatures, and the once tranquil bamboo forest began to stir.

"Heavens! Phoenixes are usually gentle, why is this one so ferocious?" Xiao Xuan, slightly distracted, tripped over something and fell forward, landing hard and covered in dust.

The Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix, with its incredibly sharp eyes, immediately swooped down from the sky, its massive, hook-like claws tearing at its prey's back.

"Ugh... this is really the end..." Xiao Xuan closed his eyes in despair, but then a sudden change occurred; something lifted him up, and in an instant, he was out of danger.

The Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix continued its pursuit, its fury sweeping through the air like a hurricane, causing countless giant bamboos to fall in the same direction, forming a strange passage in the dense bamboo forest.

Xiao Xuan looked up, dizzy and disoriented, only to realize that someone was carrying him at an astonishing speed, seemingly no less than the giant phoenix above. Overjoyed, he thought, "Looks like I'm not destined to die! I wonder who my savior is?"

Just as he was rejoicing, he suddenly heard the person curse, "You brat, you almost ruined everything! Die!" Then he was forcefully thrown to the ground, landing heavily.

He was covered in wounds, and the blow made the pain even worse, his liver felt like it was being pulled away, and his face turned pale. Confused, he heard another person shout, "Everyone, be careful, that bird is here!" The voice was tender and sweet, and he felt like he had heard it somewhere before.

Xiao Xuan struggled to look around and found himself lying on an open field with no cover. He was instantly terrified, but hearing the flapping of wings in the air, he knew that the giant phoenix was above him. He was filled with grief and indignation: "So that guy didn't want to save me, he wanted to kill me!"

The piercing cry finally rang out again, and the seven-flame azure phoenix swooped down from the sky, blotting out the sun.

A powerful gust of wind whipped up clouds of dust. Xiao Xuan suddenly noticed intricate grooves carved into the ground, forming countless complex and mysterious patterns. A thought flashed through his mind, and he instantly realized he was standing on a magical array, his confusion deepening.

"Ah! Xiao Xuan?" a familiar voice suddenly called out. In the nick of time, an embroidered ribbon flew from the side, snatching Xiao Xuan away from the Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix's claws.

The Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix, having missed its target again, angrily gave chase. Just then, the grooves carved into the ground suddenly lit up, and a magical array silently appeared, trapping them within.

Xiao Xuan was pulled by the ribbon to the feet of a person. He noticed half a shoe peeking out from under a skirt and wondered if it was a woman. Looking up, he saw a woman with a very alluring figure, though her face was veiled.

The woman paid him no heed. She loosened her embroidered sash and gracefully swung her arms across the air towards the giant phoenix, as if controlling something.

Xiao Xuan turned to look at the formation and saw the Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix darting left and right in the air, seemingly bound by many invisible and scorching threads. Smoking wounds appeared on its feathers. It was furious and its aura intensified, bursting outwards as if it were tangible.

Xiao Xuan couldn't resist and suddenly felt weak all over. Only then did he notice that besides the woman, there were seven or eight other people standing nearby, all with their faces covered by veils. They were neatly and evenly arranged around the formation, also waving their arms at the giant phoenix. Each person remained perfectly still, seemingly completely unaffected by the aura.

The Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix struggled for a long time but could not break free. It became increasingly desperate, thrashing and crashing around, its giant beak and sharp claws pecking and scratching wildly, creating a terrifying spectacle.

Several people around began to sway slightly. The man who had brought Xiao Xuan earlier shouted, "Hold on, everyone! This bird is about to give up!"

Sure enough, after another round of frantic struggle, the Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix finally showed signs of weakness. The flames on its body dimmed considerably, and charred feathers began to fall one by one. Its aura of power was also gradually weakening.

"How terrifying! What kind of formation is this? It has tormented such a powerful spirit bird to this extent..." Xiao Xuan watched in horror, his hands and feet slowly regaining their strength.

After a while, the Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix's originally bright and sharp cry became hoarse, seemingly turning into a pitiful wail. Its wings flapped slower and slower, and clumps of feathers charred and fell off.

The man who had spoken earlier suddenly turned to the woman who had saved Xiao Xuan and said, "It's dying, hurry up and do it."

The woman nodded and said, "I'll count to three, then you all stop the formation, one... two... three!"

As soon as the word "three" was uttered, everyone around the formation immediately stopped, and the glowing indentations on the ground suddenly dimmed.

The Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix suddenly felt the restriction disappear and hurriedly tried to take off, wanting to escape this place that felt like purgatory to it.

The woman crossed her arms and bent forward with her knees, her posture incredibly graceful. Suddenly, a green shadow flashed behind her, and the giant phoenix seemed to freeze in mid-air. After a moment, its huge body crashed to the ground, making the ground tremble violently.

"Did you get it?" someone asked.

The woman nodded, handed a gray-blue bowl to the person who asked the question, and said, "You all leave quickly, I'll be right there."

The person said, "Leave no trace." He glanced at Xiao Xuan, then led the rest away, disappearing into the dense bamboo forest in an instant.

The woman took out a deep blue double-pronged fork from her personal magic pouch and swung it back and forth above the magic array, quickly destroying all the carved lines on the ground. Then she walked towards Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan was startled and unconsciously moved back.

The woman chuckled, put the fork back into her pouch, and said, "Are you still so afraid of me?"

Xiao Xuan was even more certain that he had heard this voice before, and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

The woman put her hands behind her head, removed her veil, and revealed a bewitching face with delicate eyebrows and watery eyes.

Chapter Ten: Fishing

"Fifth Sister!" Xiao Xuan was overjoyed and jumped up from the ground, but he pulled on some wound and gasped in pain.

The woman before him was none other than Qi Ji, a scorpion spirit with hundreds of years of cultivation, and Xiao Xuan's sworn sister whom he had only sworn brother on the eve of his departure from the mountain. She stepped forward to help Xiao Xuan up, frowning as she

said, "How did you end up here? And you even provoked that divine bird! Don't you want to die?!" Xiao Xuan then hastily recounted what had happened after descending the mountain, patting his chest as he finished, "Luckily, I met you all."

"Luckily! If I hadn't recognized you in time, you would have been strangled to death!" Qi Ji sneered.

Xiao Xuan recalled the giant phoenix struggling frantically in the formation, and a chill ran down his spine. He asked, puzzled, "Right, why did your companions capture me here?"

"Don't even mention it! You almost ruined everything," Qi Ji scolded playfully.

"What exactly happened?"

"We were trying to hunt that giant bird, but before the magic array was even set up, we saw it being lured out of its nest. We thought someone was going to steal it, so we had to act hastily. Luckily, one of us is a master of magic arrays, otherwise anything bad would have happened."

Xiao Xuan was still confused: "Fifth Sister, why did you set up the array to hunt that giant bird?"

"We wanted to extract the brain marrow of that divine bird to save someone," Qi Ji said.

"Save who?" Xiao Xuan was very curious and wanted to know who could make her take such a risk.

Qi Ji suddenly shut her mouth and paused for a moment before saying, "Little brother, there are some things you'd better not know."

Xiao Xuan was full of doubts, but he had no choice but to stop asking and changed the subject: "Are Sister Peach Blossom and Brother Bai alright?"

"They're fine. We just had a get-together the night before last. Hei Wuba kept saying that without your elixir, the wine tasted bland," Qi Ji said with a smile.

Xiao Xuan recalled the joyful times they had shared, feeling a deep longing in his heart. He rubbed his hands and sighed, "Alas... I wonder when we can all drink together again."

"Did you like it?" Qi Ji asked, staring at him.

"Of course I liked it, I liked it to bits," Xiao Xuan replied with an air of self-assurance.

The fairy bit her lip and suddenly whispered, "Why did you run away that night?"

Xiao Xuan was slightly taken aback, then recalled the enchanting scene in the peach grove. He blushed and his heart raced. He stammered for a long time before finally saying, "That night... that night was too late..."

Qi Ji understood, but deliberately said, "Alright, then next time if it's earlier, will you still run away?"

Now Xiao Xuan's ears burned, and he couldn't answer for a long time.

The fairy gritted her teeth and spat lightly, "Coward!"

Xiao Xuan thought she was angry. He stole a glance and saw the beauty's jade cheeks flushed with tears and her eyes filled with anger. He was instantly captivated and blurted out, "I won't run away next time." But he regretted it as soon as he said it.

Qi Ji smiled radiantly, then leaned closer, her crimson lips brushing against his ear, and whispered, "You just said you lived in that...that manor in Zeyang City, what was it again?"

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded, and he honestly replied, "The Marquis of Zhongjing's manor."

"Would you like to come see me in a few days?" Qi Ji asked sweetly, then lightly licked his earlobe with her tongue.

Xiao Xuan felt a sudden chill run down his spine, and cried out in a panic, "No, no! Absolutely not..."

The enchantress withdrew, her face darkening.

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded, and he quickly said, "Zeyang is already very dangerous; those skeletons could attack the city at any moment."

Afraid she wouldn't believe him, he added, "That's why I came here with some people to ask for bamboo, to make some arrows to defend the city."

Upon hearing this, Qi Ji's face immediately brightened, and she smiled, saying, "Is that why you don't want me to go?"

Xiao Xuan nodded, though he had other fears in his heart.

"I'm not afraid of any skeletons; I'll help you fight them!" Qi Ji said.

"No, those aren't ordinary skeletons. Their leader is the infamous Skeleton King...

"

"Alright, I should go." Qi Ji interrupted him dismissively, pointing to the giant phoenix's corpse. "This giant bird is a guardian spirit bird of Tai Bi. If the people in the valley find it and kill it, they will definitely launch a massive manhunt for the murderer. You should leave here quickly too."

Xiao Xuan agreed, wanting to persuade her not to go to Zeyang City to find him, but then he heard her say, "Remember to wait for your sister." Her figure flashed and she was gone.

He stood there, cold sweat dripping down his forehead, thinking in alarm, "Fifth Sister is a scorpion demon. If she really goes to find me, and Master or Senior Sister sees her, it'll be fatal..."

Just as he was wondering what to do, he suddenly heard a shout and saw Shui Ruo rushing out of the bamboo forest. Overjoyed, he hurried to meet her, opening his arms to catch the beautiful woman in his embrace.

Just then, another person emerged from the bamboo forest—it was He Tianpeng. He was greatly surprised to see Xiao Xuan, and when he saw the giant phoenix's corpse, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Shui Ruo was overjoyed, ignoring He Tianpeng's presence, and showered her lover's face with kisses.

Xiao Xuan was also deeply moved, tightly embracing her and returning her passionate kisses. They had only been apart for less than half an hour, yet it felt like an eternity.

"I thought you…you…I would never see you again…" Shui Ruo cried

tears of joy. Xiao Xuan kissed away her tears, smiling gently, "Don't cry, don't cry, I'm fine."

"Where are you hurt?" Shui Ruo then remembered, pushing the man away and looking him up and down.

"Your arms and legs are still there, right?" Xiao Xuan smiled, opening his arms for her to see.

"Where exactly are you hurt?" the girl asked anxiously, noticing a scratch on his forehead. She quickly took out her handkerchief and gently wiped away the blood.

"Nowhere, really." Xiao Xuan was in pain all over, but he couldn't bear to make her worry.

"How could you be so silly..." Shui Ruo complained, her heart aching.

"That rainbow was so beautiful, it would make you a gorgeous dress." Xiao Xuan touched himself, as if searching for something.

Shui Ruo's tears welled up again, and she sobbed as she threw herself back into his arms, the two of them clinging together once more.

He Tianpeng, standing nearby, was both shocked and jealous, and suddenly shouted, "You... why didn't you... what happened to this spirit phoenix?"

"Are you blind?" Xiao Xuan already disliked this guy, and was even more annoyed by his loud outburst.

"How... how did it die?" He Tianpeng racked his brains trying to figure it out.

"How did it die? It fought me, Grandpa Xiao Sheng, for over three hundred rounds, and died from exhaustion." Xiao Xuan made up a story on the spot.

"Impossible! With your cultivation level, how could you possibly defeat a thousand-year-old spirit bird?" He Tianpeng refused to believe him, but what he saw before him was indeed the mark of a great battle.

"How could you possibly discern the depth of my cultivation, Little Saint! Do you know what it means to be a true master who doesn't reveal their abilities?"

Seeing his anxiety, Xiao Xuan became even more enthusiastic in his fabrication. He

Tianpeng stared at him and muttered, "Impossible, impossible... This is absolutely impossible..."

"Then tell me how it died," Xiao Xuan said leisurely.

"..." He Tianpeng paused, suddenly noticing a large gash on the giant phoenix's head, and his heart skipped a beat: "Could this kid possess some extremely powerful magic weapon?"

Seeing him staring at the giant phoenix's corpse, Xiao Xuan's heart stirred. He hurriedly went over, quietly opened his Ruyi Pouch, chanted an incantation, and instantly stored the giant corpse inside.

"You... what are you doing?" He Tianpeng exclaimed.

"I killed this bird, so it should belong to me after it dies."

According to common sense, such a thousand-year-old spirit bird must be a treasure trove from head to toe. Xiao Xuan, who loved creating new things, needed such materials. Suddenly realizing he had struck it rich, he was thrilled.

He Tianpeng's face turned pale, then he suddenly shouted, "Tai Bi is the spirit of Giant Bamboo Valley, the ancestor of the billions of treasure-filled bamboos in this valley, and this Seven-Flame Azure Phoenix is Tai Bi's guardian bird! You dared to kill it! If the people in the valley find out, they'll tear you to pieces!"

Shui Ruo immediately tensed up upon hearing this, saying, "Xiao Xuan didn't mean it... Let's leave quickly."

"But we haven't gotten the bamboo yet," Xiao Xuan said.

He Tianpeng's expression shifted between light and shadow. After a moment's thought, he said, "Since we're here, how can we let this go to waste? I'll go get the bamboo. You all find a place to hide and wait for me to return before leaving the valley."

Shui Ruo said, "Xiao Xuan killed the giant bird, and you're with us. Won't you be in danger?"

He Tianpeng was touched by her concern and said, "Don't worry, the young master of this valley is a very good friend of mine. He won't do anything to me." "

Then hurry back. We'll wait for you here," Shui Ruo said.

He Tianpeng said, "If we can get the bamboo, we'll have to wait for them to harvest it. We won't be back until at least evening. Don't rush, and don't wander off..." He glanced at Xiao Xuan, then said to Shui Ruo, "If anyone causes trouble again, and I'm not by your side, things could get very bad."

"No, I'll keep a close eye on him," Shui Ruo said.

Xiao Xuan lowered his head, looking obedient.

He Tianpeng looked around and said, "Jade Belt Bay is two or three miles south. People in this valley don't dare to go there casually. You should wait for me there."

"Jade Belt Bay?" Shui Ruo exclaimed with joy upon hearing this, "Great! My mother said it's one of the most beautiful places in the world."

He Tianpeng said, "Just wait on the outer edge. Don't go near the Tai Bi in the middle."

Shui Ruo nodded in agreement.

************

After He Tianpeng left, Shui Ruo and Xiao Xuan headed south. Although the bamboo forest was exceptionally dense, with the towering Tai Bi guiding them, they naturally wouldn't lose their way.

With one less annoying person around, Xiao Xuan was in high spirits, chatting and laughing with Shui Ruo all the way, a stark contrast to when they arrived.

"Tell me honestly, how exactly did that giant bird die?" Shui Ruo suddenly asked.

Xiao Xuan knew she knew his limitations best and couldn't hide it from her, so he confessed what had happened earlier, omitting the part about knowing the scorpion demon.

Shui Ruo listened with surprise, pondering, "That's strange... guess who they are? Why did they hunt that big bird?"

"I can't guess." Xiao Xuan looked around, the scenery around him becoming more and more beautiful, he had no mind for riddles at the moment.

"I knew it, with your little skills, how could you possibly defeat that thousand-year-old spirit bird?" Shui Ruo blurted out.

Xiao Xuan stopped upon hearing this, looking indignant: "Don't always underestimate people, one day I'll surprise you."

Shui Ruo then noticed his displeasure, glancing sideways with a smile, "Alright, I'll wait, don't go back on your word."

"Hmph, I understand what you mean..." Xiao Xuan couldn't stand her gaze, getting stuck in a rut: "You must think I'm hopeless, right? You've always thought so, haven't you?"

"I think you..." the girl smiled sweetly.

"What do you think?" Xiao Xuan stared at her.

"Not that you're useless, but... a complete fool!" Shui Ruo laughed.

Xiao Xuan, who was just looking for an excuse to get close to her, let out a strange cry and pounced.

But Shui Ruo was prepared, dodging him and flying forward like a butterfly.

Xiao Xuan chased after her, shouting and yelling, startling many small animals in the bamboo forest into scattering in all directions.

They played and chased each other, not knowing how long or how far they had run, when suddenly the view opened up before them. They had left the bamboo forest and saw a bay of clear water in front of them. In the water was a piece of land, covered with a green carpet, and in the middle stood a giant bamboo with a diameter of four or five zhang and a height of over a hundred zhang. Its branches and leaves were dense and shady, covering dozens of acres of water. Most strangely, a seven-colored light emanated from the middle of the bamboo, arcing into the distance, just like the rainbow they had seen on the high cliff earlier.

The two stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with shock and amazement.

"Jade Belt Bay...we've arrived at Jade Belt Bay!" Shui Ruo exclaimed joyfully.

Xiao Xuan looked up along the bamboo stalks, his neck aching from craning his neck, but he still couldn't see the very top of Tai Bi. He murmured, "No wonder it's one of the nineteen spiritual veins. If we're talking about height, even our Dream Nest on Xiaoyao Peak can't compare..."

"Just as my mother said, this is indeed one of the most beautiful places in the world." Just then, Shui Ruo sighed softly, the clear blue sunlight falling on her face, making her skin look as beautiful as jade.

"It's clearly a bamboo stalk, so how can it emit a rainbow?" Xiao Xuan asked, full of doubt.

"Otherwise, how could it be one of the nineteen spiritual veins? As a divine object, it naturally possesses extraordinary qualities."

Shui Ruo, however, felt it was perfectly reasonable. She ran forward, knelt by the water's edge, and cheered again, beckoning to Xiao Xuan, "Come quickly!"

Xiao Xuan went over and saw her cupping a handful of cool water, gently covering her face, and letting out a long breath, "So cool, it cools to the bone."

Xiao Xuan's eyes darted around, and he tempted her with ulterior motives, "Such wonderful water, if we could soak in it, it would be absolutely wonderful."

Shui Ruo was extremely tempted and felt even hotter. She fanned her neck with her hand and muttered, "I've been running all this way and I've sweated a lot."

"If only we could take a bath... How about we go for a swim?" Xiao Xuan probed with ulterior motives.

Shui Ruo looked at him thoughtfully.

Xiao Xuan felt a chill run down his spine, and his face flushed.

Shui Ruo finally seemed moved and nodded, saying, "Alright, such good water, I really can't bear not to soak in it."

Xiao Xuan was overjoyed, never expecting his wicked scheme to succeed so easily. He barely managed to suppress his laughter when he suddenly saw the girl's gaze sweep over his shoulder, her face full of astonishment. She cried out in a trembling voice, "What is that?"

He was startled and hurriedly turned around, his mind racing: "Could it be some kind of vicious beast again?"

Suddenly, his dantian trembled, his true energy was completely shut off, and he immediately slumped to the side.

"Men and women should be different, and there's no privacy here, so... I'm afraid you'll have to make do for a bit." Shui Ruo chuckled as she withdrew her hand, adding, "I'll go wash first, and then I'll come back to relieve you."

"You...you..." Xiao Xuan stared at her, speechless, panting heavily. In a flash, he had already cursed her a thousand times in his mind: "Little fox."

Shui Ruo moved him to a shady spot, gently patting his face and softly saying, "Lie down quietly for a while, I might not be here for long." After saying that, she hummed a tune and walked towards the water's edge.

Xiao Xuan pricked up his ears and heard a faint rustling sound of clothes being undressed, followed by the soft sound of water, and then he heard Shui Ruo's sigh-like cheer.

He turned his eyes to look, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see what was happening in the water.

"Ugh...how awful! Why do I always fall for her tricks?" Xiao Xuan recalled the days on the mountain, and roughly calculated that he had fallen for this little fox's schemes more than a hundred times.

A series of strange sounds, like soft murmurs and delicate sighs, filled Xiao Xuan's ears, making his heart flutter, his face flush, and his mind race with wild fantasies.

"When she comes up and lifts the restriction, whether she's angry or not, I'll just pounce on her..." He fantasized, burning with lust, but the girl seemed to have forgotten him, not coming over for a long time.

"Hey! Are you done yet?" Xiao Xuan couldn't help but shout.

Shui Ruo didn't answer.

"It's my turn!" Xiao Xuan protested loudly, but still didn't hear Shui Ruo's voice. He was puzzled, and suddenly realized that all the sounds he had heard earlier had disappeared.

"Where did that girl go?" He suddenly became worried: "He Tianpeng said there are many spiritual birds and beasts in this valley, will something happen to her?"

Xiao Xuan became more and more alarmed, and shouted loudly again, but there was still no response.

Time ticked by, and he grew increasingly anxious. In his turmoil, something seemed to be quietly stirring within him—a completely different kind of true energy. He was greatly intrigued, and a flash of inspiration struck him. He quickly calmed his mind and focused on sensing the changes within his body.

Gradually, Xiao Xuan began to grasp the energy within him and started trying to control it. Suddenly, his dantian opened up, true energy surged, and his strength returned.

He had no time to ponder what was happening. He got up and ran to the water's edge to find Shui Ruo. He immediately saw Shui Ruo's clothes, neatly hanging on a bamboo branch.

"Her clothes are all here, which means she hasn't come up yet," Xiao Xuan thought, looking at the towering bamboo in the water. "Could she have gone to Tai Bi out of curiosity?" Ignoring He Tianpeng's warning, he broke off several bamboo branches and threw them into the water, then used his land-based leaping technique to reach the small island where Tai Bi was located.

He glanced at the giant bamboo before him and thought, "Why not go up and take a look?"

He leaped up and swam to Tai Bi. Upon reaching the top, he immediately saw her. She was leaning against a piece of broken bamboo floating in the water, her eyes closed in repose, completely naked except for her bare shoulders and breasts, her skin as smooth as jade.

"Wow, this girl is really undressed!" Xiao Xuan opened his eyes wide, swallowing hard, still not seeing clearly enough. He noticed a long branch extending above Shui Ruo, so he tiptoed over and, as expected, saw every inch of the beautiful woman's body.

Shui Ruo was completely unaware of being spied on, still happily resting with her eyes half-closed. Her already delicate skin, soaked in water, was now even more translucent and supple, radiating an alluring moisture.

"So she came here to play! I was worried sick all day!" he grumbled inwardly, but the burning desire quickly consumed him, replaced by wicked thoughts that crept into his mind.

Suddenly, Xiao Xuan remembered something, silently chanted an incantation, and pulled out an object from his magic pouch—a rainbow he had plucked in his leap.

"It's so big, it should be enough to make a few clothes. I'll keep half for Yaoyao." He tore off half and put it back in his magic pouch, infusing the rainbow with his true energy, and then lashed it down with a "Flying Dragon Drawing Water" whip technique.

Shui Ruo, who was dozing in the water, was just about to drift off to sleep when she heard a whistle from above. Startled awake, she felt a sudden tightening around her waist, as if something had wrapped around her. With a splash, she was lifted from the water.

As countless water droplets scattered, an incredibly alluring and beautiful body was completely exposed in mid-air.

Xiao Xuan pulled her up with a swift motion, like fishing, and scooped the girl up, tightly embracing the "mermaid" in his arms. In an instant, her soft, warm body enveloped him, and Shui Ruo was so startled she almost fainted. Like a fish caught in a net, her slippery body struggled and jumped wildly in the man's arms.

Xiao Xuan forcefully subdued her, suddenly grabbing her head and, without a word, covering her cherry lips with his.

Shui Ruo suddenly caught a glimpse of a captivating, wicked gaze that made her heart flutter, and she froze.

Xiao Xuan pulled the rainbow-colored head from her waist and wrapped it around other parts of her body.

"You...how is it you? You...how could you..." Shui Ruo finally recognized him, her shock mixed with boundless shame and surprise.

"Little fox!" Xiao Xuan grinned mischievously at her. "You dared to lie to me just now..."

"You bad boy!" Shui Ruo groaned, biting her lip. Her naked, cool skin pressed against the man's clothes, which radiated heat, and her tense body suddenly went limp.

"Now..." Xiao Xuan lowered his head, glancing down at the two mounds of soft, powdery flesh piled up on her chest. Suddenly, his smile vanished, and he said fiercely, "See how I deal with you!"

Volume 4, Giant Bamboo Valley,

Chapter 1: The Beauty of Flowers and the Moon.

Everything happened too suddenly. Shui Ruo was both ashamed and flustered. She frantically pushed the man away, even though she was now weak and powerless.

Xiao Xuan's lust burned fiercely. His omnipresent demonic hands kneaded and explored, then wrapped around her, the ever-changing colors of his hands enveloping her snowy skin, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

Unable to move, Shui Ruo's gaze was finally drawn to what bound her. She froze, surprised, and asked, "You didn't throw it away?"

"Why would I throw it away? I went through so much trouble to find it," Xiao Xuan smiled.

"Didn't you see that big bird chasing you like crazy!" Shui Ruo glared at him. "It's angry because you touched its treasure."

"Since I found it, throwing it away won't make that big bird angry... Don't you like it?" Xiao Xuan said.

Shui Ruo stared intently at him, her eyes suddenly welling up with tears, but the image of him leaping off the cliff remained vivid in her mind, transforming into threads of emotion that seeped into her heart, as intoxicating as wine, as thick as honey. So

thick it couldn't be dissolved, nor did it want to be.

Xiao Xuan noticed something amiss, his gaze reluctantly lifting from the two mounds of snow on her chest.

The girl threw herself into his arms, pressing her wet face against his broad chest. She was soaked to the bone, but the water on her face was warm, unlike the rest of her skin.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Xuan asked, startled.

"From now on, you're never allowed to take such risks again! Even if I like you, it's not allowed," Shui Ruo choked out.

Xiao Xuan felt a surge of relief and nodded in agreement, showering her with kisses and caresses, making her love him even more wild and intense.

Shui Ruo stopped resisting, her body growing softer, her breathing becoming rapid. Her tightly clenched lips occasionally let out a faint moan. Suddenly, she tilted her head back, her eyes alluring, her moist lips parting slightly, trembling softly towards him, like a summons, like a temptation.

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded, and he held his breath, kissing her deeply.

Although this wasn't their first kiss, it was the first time Shui Ruo had taken the initiative.

They were too close; her peach-blossom face and shimmering eyes were magnified and blurred before his eyes. Xiao Xuan couldn't see her expression clearly, but the hot breath emanating from her betrayed him. His veins throbbed, and he couldn't wait to loosen his belt. The scene of being interrupted at the crucial moment last time was still vividly imprinted in his mind, and he feared it would repeat itself this time.

In her dazed and confused state, Shui Ruo suddenly felt her lover pressing tightly against her, a hard, burning thing rubbing and touching between her legs. She suddenly remembered the frenzy and pain of that night, and a surge of tension rose in her heart. Her legs involuntarily closed together.

Xiao Xuan, panting heavily, struggled, feeling his tip already touching the tender flesh, which was already slippery with moisture. But he just couldn't get in. After a flurry of activity, he realized that the beauty was refusing to cooperate. Desperate, he pleaded softly, "Shui'er..."

Seeing his pained expression, Shui Ruo's heart softened. "He can leap off a cliff to pick rainbows for me, but I can't even endure this little pain?" She immediately loosened her legs, pressing her buttocks against her lover's.

Xiao Xuan suddenly felt his entire head of the club sink into the mortise, softly enveloped by the tender, creamy flesh. He felt a numbing, bone-melting pleasure, and overjoyed, he thrust his hips forward with all his might. His massive member finally entered the beauty's flower. In his haste, it flew like a shooting star, and the instantaneous, complete union caused both of them to cry out simultaneously.

Shui Ruo had expected it to hurt a lot, but this time it was much less painful, and the pain was mixed with a pleasant, exhilarating sensation that radiated through her limbs. She gasped for breath, her face a breathtakingly alluring expression.

Xiao Xuan was experiencing a bone-deep pleasure; the tight, tender walls of her vagina gripped his penis without any gaps, making him unable to resist thrusting in and out. Shui

Ruo endured the sensation with panting breaths, her fear quickly fading as the pleasure intensified. Although she still felt pain and discomfort, she realized she was beginning to enjoy doing this with this man. Upon this discovery, her pretty face flushed crimson with shy blush.

Xiao Xuan stared at the girl's delicate face, his thrusts becoming even more vigorous and intense. With a final, powerful thrust, the tip brushed against something soft and tender, making him gasp repeatedly in ecstasy. He thought to himself, "I've touched this little darling again!"

He immediately thrust deeper and deeper, seeking the exquisite object.

Shui Ruo frowned and closed her eyes, looking extremely distressed, but beneath her, spring tides overflowed, and patches of honey-like fluid smeared everywhere, making their abdomens and groin sticky and shiny.

Xiao Xuan was extremely greedy for that wonderful thing, but he could only tease it once or twice out of more than ten times. He found it both interesting and impatient. He had little experience, so he simply went for it, using all his strength to pull and tug like lightning.

Tai Bi was one of the nineteen spiritual veins, with extraordinary vitality. Its main trunk was two or three zhang in diameter, and even its branches were as thick as a large tree that could be embraced. However, Xiao Xuan and Shui Ruo were already at the end of a branch and were seven or eight zhang away from the main trunk. With such a large movement, it began to sway gently.

Shui Ruo was startled and cried out, "I'm going to fall!"

Xiao Xuan ignored her, noticing that her breasts were somehow wrapped in a rainbow, her nipples half-exposed, the tips of her nipples pressing against the irises—it was incredibly tempting. He peeled the rainbow away with one hand, binding it beneath her breasts, then grasped and kneaded them heavily. His thrusts below continued fiercely, causing the bamboo branch to shake more and more violently.

"I'll fall..." Shui Ruo was terrified. She glanced at the water's surface, her panic intensifying. She hurriedly moved her buttocks towards the middle of the branch, but no sooner had her lower body moved than she met the man's fierce thrusts. Her tender flower was struck squarely, and she cried out in pain, her waist nearly breaking as she almost slipped off the bamboo branch.

Xiao Xuan quickly pulled her back, seeing the girl's pale face, he felt a surge of tender affection.

"No...don't do it here..." Shui Ruo murmured, both surprised and ashamed. Only now did she realize the power of the blow she had just received. She felt a tingling numbness from the waist down, and her little thing deep inside her was throbbing wildly. She even had a slight urge to urinate, which she hurriedly and desperately held back.

"Don't move!" Xiao Xuan ordered sternly. At such a wonderful and crucial moment, how could he allow her to be interrupted?

Shui Ruo stared at him dumbfounded. The man at this moment had an undeniable authority that made her heart tremble.

Xiao Xuan looked around, then suddenly grabbed her two beautiful legs at her sides and spread them crookedly on the bamboo branches beside her, arranging the girl in an incredibly lewd and alluring way.

Shui Ruo obediently and softly let him do as he pleased. She felt that the man's actions were both wicked and lewd. She was extremely ashamed, but there was also a strange stimulation that she had never experienced before. Her mind was a mess. Then she thought, "I've always been the one bossing him around. When did it turn out the other way around?"

Xiao Xuan thrust again, his frenzy returning, each stroke penetrating to the very root. His phallus felt like a red-hot iron rod poking and pulling at the soft, tender flesh, drawing out strands of fluid that churned from transparent to milky white, gradually thickening and coating his phallus.

The bamboo branches swayed even more violently, the surrounding leaves trembling violently as if caught in a storm, but Shui Ruo had no time to care about anything else, only her bound wrists encircling the man's neck, letting the surging pleasure and stimulation wash over every nerve.

After countless thrusts, Xiao Xuan finally figured out the location of that little treasure deep within the flower path. It turned out to be quite low down, and seemed to know how to hide, slipping away on its own once touched by the phallus.

"What a cunning little thing!" He found it extremely amusing and became even more eager to tease her. His thrusting suddenly changed from a straight sprint to a deep, penetrating exploration. Sure enough, it worked immediately; six or seven out of ten thrusts reached the girl's secret flower core.

Shui Ruo reacted violently; her previously suppressed moans suddenly rose in pitch, her snowy body tensing and softening, her slender waist arching and thrusting like a shrimp in boiling oil.

Xiao Xuan watched and explored, feeling dazzled and excited, becoming even more relentless. He used his penis as a hoe, digging deeper and plowing faster. Suddenly, he heard the girl let out a seductive cry, and felt his tip sink deep into her, his entire glans seemingly embedded somewhere, its surface strangely smooth and tender. He almost ejaculated prematurely.

Shui Ruo's face changed color; her mouth opened, but the sound stopped abruptly. As if pricked by a needle, her delicate body stiffened, unable to move.

Xiao Xuan found it indescribably wonderful. With a slight rubbing, he felt tender granules rising from the walls of the indentation, softly rubbing against his glans. He felt his muscles go numb and his bones soften, moaning with pleasure.

Deep within the woman's flower path lies a place called the Jade Dome, also known as the Restless Stone or Kun Stone, located below the flower's heart, shaped like a nest, specifically for male semen to gather and be sent to the Jade Palace for conception. However, the Water Orchid is exceptional; its dome is shallow and full, and it can curl up, concealing the flower's heart. It is a rare treasure, one in a million, recorded in ancient texts as "Shy Flower, Closed Moon."

This precious instrument, nourished and protected by the flower's heart and the Jade Dome, is extremely sensitive, but very secret and hidden, making it extremely difficult for ordinary people to reach, and thus very difficult to conceive. However, if one is exceptionally gifted, once discovered, the man and woman will experience extraordinary pleasure and unparalleled ecstasy.

Last time, Xiao Xuan was so flustered and hasty that he didn't even realize he'd missed the treasure. But being a tall and unusual man, this time, after "diligent study," he finally obtained the rare gem. The indentation of his glans was the nest where the flower's heart lay, soft and smooth as cream, with beauty beyond description.

Shui Ruo felt an unbearable swelling, a tingling and numb sensation, and a nagging itch, making her both timid and yearning, flustered and helpless.

Xiao Xuan, overwhelmed with pleasure, began to thrust again, but fearing he might escape the blissful paradise he had finally found, he only thrust gently and briefly, carefully keeping the glans inside the tender nest.

Shui Ruo's body trembled and her waist went weak. Her flower-like heart, which had been forced open, wanted to return to its original position, but instead, it tightly held onto the glans, which was as hard as iron. The tingling pleasure intensified, and her snowy belly twitched, almost causing her to lose control. She thought she needed to urinate, but she hurriedly held it in. Unexpectedly, the urge to release surged, and a small stream of vaginal fluid leaked out, sticky and soft, flowing onto her lover's penis.

Xiao Xuan's glans, squeezed and pressed from the tender bud, was already experiencing ecstasy. Suddenly, the flower fluid was poured onto his stem, and his heart pulsed. The penis inserted into the jade flower suddenly swelled up. He had experienced something similar twice before. He quickly looked down and saw that the penis had changed as before. The exposed base was as red as charcoal, with veins bulging on it. He guessed that the inside was the same. He thought dazedly, "How come it becomes like this at the end?"

He was bewildered, but his penis instantly grew half an inch longer, pushing against her flower core. Shui Ruo, seemingly unconscious, could no longer restrain herself. Her tender flower core contracted and trembled violently, suddenly releasing a gush of fluid.

Xiao Xuan felt the beautiful fluid gushing out, making his penis hot and numb. He too suddenly felt a surge of urge to release. He thrust his hips forward, managing a few more thrusts, and his glans, rubbing against her tender flower core, shot out angrily, filling her in the blink of an eye, bursting out and hitting her flower core.

Little did she know that his semen was also extraordinary and of great origin. Shui Ruo was so captivated by his beauty that her soul was utterly swayed. Moreover, the treasure she possessed was named "Shy Flower Closes Moon," and the hidden bud was the most sensitive spot, even more delicate than the flower core, and most untouchable. Now that it had been conquered, and after being thoroughly filled and brutally ravaged by her lover, she was overwhelmed with pleasure, experiencing a pleasure far exceeding that of the last time.

Xiao Xuan, with his limited experience, unexpectedly encountered a rare treasure. Like a penniless man suddenly entering a mountain of treasure, he was overjoyed and unable to control himself. He cast aside any tenderness or affection he might have felt, focusing only on relentless, frenzied craving. His thrusts were relentless and forceful, as if he wanted to crush the delicate flower of the jade maiden.

Shui Ruo's entire body convulsed, as if something had melted away, her nectar gushing forth, turning their point of contact into a puddle of mud after rain.

After an unknown amount of time, the two finally relaxed. Shui Ruo's body seemed to dissolve; except for her bound arms still hanging around the man's neck, she was soft and yielding. Her beautiful legs had slipped from the bamboo branches on either side, dangling alluringly. A foot, as delicate as a spring bamboo shoot, peeked out from the dense bamboo thicket, a drop of slightly cloudy nectar clinging to the toe, brimming with moisture.

Seeing her dazed expression, her wet hair clinging messily to her forehead, looking utterly lost in a trance, Xiao Xuan felt a surge of tenderness and gently kissed her delicate face, calling her softly.

Shui Ruo slowly came to her senses, opened her eyes, saw her lover, and quickly closed them again, her beautiful face still flushed with shyness.

"Shui'er... are you alright?" Xiao Xuan nervously released Caihong; the girl's earlier behavior had exceeded his expectations.

Shui Ruo remained silent for a long time; how could one answer such a question? But sweetness and joy were undeniably evident on her face.

Xiao Xuan felt as if bathed in a spring breeze, showering her with passionate kisses, the hot kisses landing on her brow, eyelashes, nose, and lips…

"Quickly, get me my clothes," Shui Ruo finally spoke, her voice barely a whisper.

"Wait a minute." Having rushed straight into the flower valley without properly appreciating the other scenery, Xiao Xuan was unwilling to let it go. His gaze slowly moved, greedily tracing every inch of the girl's body.

Against the backdrop of the surrounding foliage, her skin appeared pale and bluish-white, almost translucent, as beautiful as jade, yet marked with the indentations of the rainbow, captivating and mesmerizing.

"You rascal!" Shui Ruo said shyly, only then noticing the marks on her skin, surprisingly feeling no annoyance.

Xiao Xuan continued to watch her kiss, gently stroking the delicate skin marked by the rainbow, his expression still lecherous.

"It hurts," Shui Ruo said, too shy to resist, making up an excuse.

This couldn't be ignored. Xiao Xuan looked around, intending to carry the jade-like beauty off Tai Bi and back to shore, when suddenly he caught sight of a shadow in the high foliage above. Reflected by the rainbow above, its outline was clearly visible. Intrigued, he stared intently, realizing it vaguely resembled a bird's nest. He thought to himself, "If it looks this big from this distance, it must be incredibly large."

"What are you daydreaming about?" Shui Ruo scolded playfully.

Xiao Xuan pointed upwards: "Look, what's that up there?"

Shui Ruo looked up, slightly surprised, and said, "It looks like a bird's nest, it's huge! Hmm? The rainbow seems to rise from there."

"Let's go up and take a look." Xiao Xuan's curiosity was piqued. He picked up the jade-like woman and used his leaping technique to swim upwards along the main trunk of Tai Bi.

Shui Ruo was only wrapped in a thin, wispy rainbow. As soon as she leaped up, she felt a cold wind whistling through her body. She was both ashamed and flustered, and cried out, "No! I... I'm not dressed yet!"

"What are you afraid of? There's no one else here." Xiao Xuan grinned, and in the blink of an eye, he had swum more than ten zhang away.

"Get away from here quickly! Have you forgotten? Young Master He told us not to go near Tai Bi." Shui Ruo still cried out.

"That guy likes to exaggerate. We've been on Tai Bi for a long time, and nothing's happened." Xiao Xuan disliked He Tianpeng, and upon hearing this, he became even more determined. He leaped up and down, gradually approaching the giant nest at the top.

Shui, having no other choice, could only wrap her arms tightly around the man's neck, pressing her body against his embrace. Her face pressed against his warm skin, her ears filled with the whistling wind, she suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of pleasure. A wave of weariness washed over her, and she realized that deep down she truly loved this man's absurdity. Overflowing with affection, she secretly licked her lover's chest with her tongue.

Xiao Xuan finally reached the shadows and saw a huge nest, its surface dazzling and colorful. He leaped high into the nest, and in an instant, both of them were bathed in rainbows, as if in a dream.

"How could this be?" Xiao Xuan muttered to himself, about to investigate, when suddenly the jade-like woman in his arms pointed in a direction and exclaimed, "Look over there!"

He looked in the direction indicated and saw a mirror-like object leaning against the nest, about the size of a cartwheel, adorned with unknown strange gems. Faint runes and patterns swirled around it, appearing and disappearing intermittently. The rainbow originated from it, soaring up, growing larger and larger, arcing across the sky. He was dumbfounded, and after a long while, he said, "What kind of treasure is this? It can actually produce a rainbow, and it can even materialize..."

Shui Ruo stared blankly, and after a while, she said, "I heard my mother mention something like that... Hey, let's go over there first, our eyes are getting dazzled."

Xiao Xuan carried her to a spot near the nest where the rainbow couldn't reach, and eagerly asked, "Do you know its origin?"

Shui Ruo said, "I don't know, but I heard my mother say that there is a legendary ancient artifact called the Seven Flames Mystic Rainbow Mirror, which can transform rainbows into garments and has the power to destroy gods and saints..."

"It can transform rainbows into garments? Isn't this mirror just like that!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed, staring intently at the mirror, walking towards it as if possessed.

"What are you doing?" Shui Ruo hurriedly called out.

Xiao Xuan seemed not to hear, reaching out to touch the mirror, then suddenly cried out, quickly withdrawing his hand as if burned, gasping for breath. Shui

Ruo rushed over, taking his hand in her hands, and seeing the burn marks on his fingertips, felt a pang of heartache, quickly lowering her face to suckle them with her lips.

"What's going on? This mirror seems to be electrified!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed in surprise.

Shui Ruo glared at him, saying, "If it really is that divine artifact, how can you touch it without knowing the method of restraint!"

"That powerful?" Xiao Xuan clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Is there anything wrong with it?" Shui Ruo asked him worriedly.

Xiao Xuan sensed it for a moment and replied, "No, it just felt like a spark of electricity entered my hand, and my heart skipped a beat."

"Serves you right! Always so absent-minded," Shui Ruo said playfully.

Xiao Xuan asked, "This Seven Flames... what is the origin of this mirror?"

Shui Ruo pondered for a moment before saying, "Thousands of years ago, there was a great war between heaven and earth. The Heavenly Emperor summoned thousands of gods and saints from all directions to besiege the demon god Xing Tian. Among Xing Tian's followers was a demoness named Huang Ji, who was extremely skilled in battle, said to be almost unbeatable among the gods. She also possessed several rare treasures, one of which was the Seven Flames Mystic Rainbow Mirror. In that battle, Huang Ji used it to kill countless gods and saints, alarming all the gods and Buddhas."

Xiao Xuan ... Unable to contain his astonishment, Qiao asked urgently, "And then what happened?"

Shui Ruo replied, "Later, the Queen Mother of the West sacrificed the Gathering Immortals Banner. Under the combined attack of the Five Emperors' Ladies, Lady Yunhua, the Jade Maiden Bai Su, the Purple Void Mystic Lord Wang Huacun, and dozens of other immortal saints, Huang Ji finally perished at the hands of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden. However, her Seven Flames Mystic Rainbow Mirror disappeared without a trace."

Xiao Xuan, recalling the grand spectacle of that battle, was mesmerized and rubbed his hands together, saying, "A mere demoness, yet so powerful, able to contend with the gods and saints of the Heavenly Realm."

"Don't underestimate these evil spirits and heretics. Not to mention the ancient Chi You and Xing Tian, and the current Tai Zhi and Yuan Yi, there's also Xuan Xuanzi who has emerged, and it's said he's causing even more headaches for the Heavenly Realm," Shui Ruo said.

Upon hearing the name "Xuan Xuanzi," Xiao Xuan's heart suddenly stirred inexplicably, and he quickly asked, "You know about Xuan Xuanzi too?"

Shui Ruo replied, "How could I not know? Xuan Xuanzi is the most mysterious wandering immortal in the last thousand years. He's both righteous and wicked, and has done many earth-shattering things, making him famous throughout the world. However, Master doesn't like anyone mentioning him, so when we were on the mountain, no one ever spoke of anything related to him."

Xiao Xuan had already heard some of Li Mengshang's stories and asked in confusion, "Why doesn't Master like anyone mentioning Xuan Xuanzi?"

"I don't know, perhaps..." Shui Ruo suddenly stopped speaking, "Ah, let's not talk about this."

Xiao Xuan was lost in thought, his mind wandering elsewhere.

Shui Ruo asked, "How could there be such a giant nest on Tai Bi?" She looked around, then suddenly pointed and exclaimed, "Look over there! What are those two things?"
