Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 595 The Goddess of War's Affection
The next moment, Chu Liuya paid the price for her bravery.

"snort!……"

She groaned softly, her brows furrowing.

Fortunately, Qin Yu was considerate enough to catch her in his arms and gently place her on the bed.

Isn't that a tiger?
Gradually, Chu Liuya's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

This feeling……

……

The flames flickered, drawing red lines that entangled the two of them together.

"The torch..."

The woman in plain clothes stood quietly to the side, showing no emotion whatsoever at the scene unfolding before her.

Only when he saw that wisp of flame did a strange look flash in his star-like eyes.

Those eyes seemed to see through everything, able to see flames that no one had ever observed before.

In a fleeting instant, countless images seemed to flash within the flames: the long river of civilization flowing in their veins, countless ancient scenes—human beings soaring through the sky and escaping into the earth, demons running rampant, and even several incomparably majestic figures floating and sinking…

"what is that?"

Qin Yu froze.

In that instant, countless images seemed to flash through his mind, yet they were like a dream, appearing and disappearing without a trace.

"Humph!"

A muffled groan pulled him back to reality from his slightly dazed state.

Chu Liuya's eyes were arrogant, like a female war goddess looking down on the battlefield, with a disdainful smile on her lips.

This guy, every time he used the guise of giving pointers on formations, made her put in so much effort.

So that's how easily they were defeated.

However, Chu Liuya's smile quickly froze.

[Emotional value from Chu Liuya +1]

【Chu Liuya's Affinity Points: 15 (First Encounter)】

Perhaps because of the gift of the Bright Moon Pearl, Chu Liuya's affinity value did not drop to zero as Qin Yu had imagined.

He practiced for several consecutive times.

Even Chu Liuya couldn't help but lose focus at this moment, her eyes becoming somewhat unfocused.

Is this guy even human?!
Such a powerful physique makes them even more ferocious than barbarians.

As the commander of the Chu Guard, she had killed quite a few silver thieves under her command, but she had never heard of any man with such combat power.

Even those who practice evil techniques cannot reach such a powerful level.

Moreover, she did not sense any unusual fluctuations from Qin Yu. Clearly, this guy had not taken any secret medicine or practiced any evil techniques; he was just so powerful with his physical body alone.

impossible!

How could I, the dignified leader of the Chu Guard, be defeated by this guy?

Chu Liuya was no naive or ignorant girl; she knew the principle that there are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not land that is over-plowned.

Today's disarray must be due to our first encounter. Once she's rested, she'll make sure this guy knows who has the right to take the initiative.

However, despite her stubborn belief, Chu Liuya couldn't help but feel a sense of fear when she saw Qin Yu get up.

She knew that Qin Yu admired her, so she stuffed everything into her hands, whether it was the Bright Moon Pearl or something else.

However, this intense love made her feel so fulfilled.

Just like a water bottle, it's really full!
It can't hold even a drop of water.

"Auntie, you should get some rest."

Fortunately, Qin Yu seemed to see her predicament and did not continue to make things difficult for her. Instead, she draped a thin garment over her shoulders and said...

Finally, he walked to the door, hesitated for a moment, but then strode out.

As the door closed, Chu Liuya secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little empty inside.

Noticing this unusual emotion in herself, she frowned.

Why do I have these feelings?

She had long known that Qin Yu had many Daoist partners, and she had considered that even if she chose to sacrifice herself, she could not possibly possess them.

Moreover, given her status, she wouldn't do such a thing.

This kind of emotion shouldn't exist.

but……

This guy really is a humanoid beast!

Chu Liuya took a deep breath, trying to sit up.

"what?"

Suddenly, she realized that there seemed to be some special energy within her body.

warm.

Like a gentle spring breeze and drizzle, like warm sunshine.

When did this warm current appear?

Chu Liuya frowned, it seemed to be around that time?
Even more miraculously, she tried to control it and investigate its true nature, but neither her mind nor the power of her Dao could touch it in the slightest.

It was as if this warm current existed within it in a magical way.

Soon, Chu Liuya felt that some of the hidden ailments she had suffered over the years disappeared without a trace as the warm current passed by, and even some of the marks on the steps of the Great Dao were slowly healing.

"what is this?"

Chu Liuya was shocked.

These hidden injuries cannot be cured by elixirs, and the Great Dao markings can only be maintained by gentle care, which may become a major problem in the future.

However, the effects of this warm current were utterly astonishing. Chu Liuya's expression turned serious, and she immediately began to quietly sense the warm current. As she sensed it, she became even more alarmed.

Because she felt that her long-dormant cultivation had loosened again, just like it had been some time ago. She didn't even need to consciously try to comprehend it; the power of Daoist energy seemed to be drawn in and surged forth.

What shocked her even more was that her limited physical constitution was showing signs of transformation.

However, both the Daoist power it draws in and the speed of its transformation are too slow.

Is it because there isn't enough warm air?
Chu Liuya suddenly remembered Qin Yu's rejection and warning when she took the initiative.

Is this the secret he holds?
Chu Liuya knew all too well how much of a commotion this secret would cause if it were revealed to outsiders.

It is no exaggeration to say that the entire continent of myriad races will be shaken by this.

Even those old things that have been dormant for a long time will reappear to find out what's going on.

Remembering that Qin Yu paused at the door before leaving, Chu Liuya suddenly realized that Qin Yu probably wanted to remind her not to reveal this secret.

However, he did not say it.

Instead, they chose to believe in themselves!
First, he unhesitatingly took out the priceless Bright Moon Pearl, and now he is giving her such strong trust.

For a moment, Chu Liuya's heart was filled with complex emotions.

【Chu Liuya's Affinity Points: 20 (Affection Arises)】

Qin Yu looked at the suddenly appearing numbers and a smile appeared on her lips.

He never expected that the seemingly aloof female warrior would fall in love so quickly.

Perhaps this is because after witnessing the coldness and warmth of human relationships, one is then confronted with genuine affection, which is why feelings develop so quickly.

This is enough to show that the leader of the Chu Guard knows the importance of his secret and would never reveal a single detail to anyone.

Qin Yu returned to the top floor and faced Chu Muyin, who was radiant and whose beautiful eyes were filled with joy. She felt a mix of emotions.

If Chu Liuya were the same as before, he naturally wouldn't feel any guilt.

After all, it's not shameful that a misunderstanding caused this princess to put in some effort while trying to understand the ancient array patterns.

However, Chu Liuya is already his woman, so Princess should call him uncle.

With this title still in place, continuing like this is really...

Given Chu Liuya's current condition, she cannot protect Her Highness the Princess. Although Qin Yu is not a traditional person, she would never take advantage of someone in distress.

Because she had wasted too much time with Chu Liuya, and it was already late, Qin Yu only gave Chu Muyin some pointers on one array pattern, and left in a hurry before she could fully comprehend it.

Watching Qin Yu's departing figure, Chu Muyin felt a strong sense of loss welling up in her heart.

She looked down at herself; today she was wearing a pale yellow dress, and knowing she was to receive guidance from Master Qin, she had even made a special effort…

But why has Master Qin changed so much today?

When giving instructions, he deliberately kept a distance, and then turned and left without looking back.

Was it because he didn't like the dress, or was there some other reason?

Chu Muyin couldn't control her wild thoughts and found it difficult to calm down and continue her contemplation.

A moment later, she said goodbye to Bai Yaosha and returned to her room.

The windows were wide open, and the evening breeze was blowing.

Chu Muyin twitched her nose slightly, keenly detecting a peculiar scent in the air, a scent she seemed to have smelled on Bai Yaosha before.

A graceful figure sat cross-legged by the window.

"came back."

Upon seeing her return, Chu Liuya slowly opened her eyes.

Hmm, Her Highness's dress is clean. Although it has some wrinkles, there is no sign that she has sweated a lot.

what happened?

"Auntie, what's that smell?"

Chu Muyin was puzzled; the smell seemed to be coming from her aunt.

Bai Yaosha is Master Qin's Daoist partner and has this kind of scent, but why does Auntie also have it?

"I just took a pill, so it might be the lingering fragrance of the pill."

Chu Liuya closed her eyes to avoid her niece noticing anything amiss when she looked away.

As the leader of the Chu Guard, she considered every detail meticulously.

only……

She had tried her best to get rid of that smell, but the princess could still smell it.

It's all that guy's fault!
Why are you back so early today?

Chu Liuya took the initiative to ask, not wanting to dwell on the topic any longer, lest she reveal her true intentions.

"I……"

Chu Muyin's expression froze, a hint of sadness flashed between her brows, and the light in her clear, beautiful eyes dimmed slightly.

Chu Liuya raised her eyelids and, seeing her like this, had already roughly guessed what was going on in her mind.

It seems that guy really was after me.

The reason they went to instruct the princess was probably because they foresaw that she would step forward.

In the past, Chu Liuya would have gritted her teeth in anger, but now, thinking back, she felt no aversion, and even a slight...pleasure.

"Aunt, how about I go to the palace to propose marriage?"

The next moment, as if she had made up her mind, Chu Muyin suddenly spoke.

"???"

Chu Liuya's pupils contracted, her face filled with confusion.

Does Your Highness know what you're saying?

Do you know how much sweat and blood your aunt has shed to protect you?

The results of it?
I've given so much, yet I still can't stop her from wanting to give it away for free?
Why is that? Could it be that Qin Yu's deliberate neglect has actually fueled her competitive spirit?
