Only after becoming emperor did he realize he was in a fantasy world of immortal cultivation.

Seeing that Lin Ye was so "uncooperative", Zhou Ru couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Today, her master sensed spiritual energy fluctuations near the imperial city and guessed that cultivators were fighting.

Moreover, the spiritual energy fluctuations were intermittent at the time, which was very likely due to the two sides setting up a barrier. Among the remaining cultivators, the only ones with such abilities were Gong Wuchen and Mingxinjing.

Therefore, the master immediately prepared to investigate, hoping to catch the bird in the dark.

To her surprise, Gong Wuchen was still able to injure his master after such a battle. Due to the blood pact, she was also subsequently injured.

Therefore, she is currently unable to use the fox spirit technique to bewitch Lin Ye.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ru's gaze on the jade wine cup tightened slightly. She had to make Lin Ye drink the wine that had been laced with a bewitching pill.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Ru's eyes shifted slightly, as if the brilliance of bygone years was contained within them, and in an instant, a unique charm appeared in the corners of her eyes and brows.

At this moment, she lowered her head slightly, and only the candlelight reflecting on her face could clearly "see" the changes in her appearance. Who can say that the flickering candlelight was not a moment when it lost its focus?

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Ru slowly raised her head, her movements gentle and slow, as if every step was carefully calculated.

Her gaze gradually moved upwards, finally settling on the best spot in the forest.

"Your Majesty?" Zhou Ru called out to Lin Ye with great charm.

With just two simple words, her voice possessed the cool and aloof quality inherent in this body, yet it also had the natural charm of Zhou Ru's alluring voice, perfectly capturing the essence of tenderness and softness.

Even in the woods, one's mind is momentarily stirred.

He couldn't help but think to himself: It seems this fox hasn't used all its tricks before.

"My beloved concubine," Lin Ye replied.

But clearly, this "my beloved concubine" did not satisfy Zhou Ru.

She glanced at Lin Ye with a look that was both alluring and reproachful, as if resenting his lack of romantic understanding. Then, she slightly raised her slender hand, her jade fingers lightly touching the jade wine cup, and with a gentle lift, the cup landed steadily in her hand.

Lin Ye watched Zhou Ru's actions without stopping her; he wanted to see what tricks she was planning to pull.

"Your Majesty, this wine was brewed by my own hands. It is a token of my heartfelt gratitude. Your Majesty..." Zhou Ru swayed as she handed the wine cup to Lin Ye, her eyes shimmering with a light that sent chills down one's spine.

Although Lin Ye did not drown in the clear autumn water as Zhou Ru had hoped, he was still somewhat intrigued.

But as for the wine... he certainly wouldn't drink it.

"I understand my beloved consort's feelings." Lin Ye looked at Zhou Ru with feigned affection, and as Zhou Ru smiled and brought the wine cup to his lips, he slowly added, "However, I am not in the mood for drinking today. My beloved consort is so understanding, she will surely be able to understand me."

As he spoke, Lin Ye wrapped one arm around Zhou Ru's soft, fragrant body, while his other hand slowly reached to pull the wine cup from her hand...

However, Zhou Ru was clearly unwilling to cooperate and subtly tried to stop him, but Lin Ye's slightly questioning "my beloved concubine" forced her to let go.

Seeing this, Lin Ye hugged her even tighter. With such a beauty in his arms, wouldn't it be a waste of this beautiful spring if he didn't do something?

However, before he could make a move, Zhou Ru gave a soft snort and gently pushed Lin Ye away, turning her body to the side.

Suddenly, her flowing outer robe slid down half an inch along her fair wrist, and the candlelight just happened to brush past the exposed shoulder line. Her snow-white skin shone with a warm luster under the gold-embroidered phoenix fabric, like a piece of mutton-fat jade just taken out of a warm jade box.

All the charm lies here.

Not to mention that Zhou Ru, who was facing away from Lin Ye, was tilting her head slightly, her eyes subtly gleaming with a hint of something else.

Seeing this, Lin Ye thought to himself: This fox that's already in my mouth, I'll definitely have a taste of it tonight.

After thinking it over, he gently put his arm around Zhou Ru's fragrant shoulder. The soft touch in his hand brought him a slight sense of pleasure, so he didn't mind asking a few more words of concern, "Why is my beloved concubine angry?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ru twisted her body slightly, as if trying to break free from Lin Ye's embrace, but her strength was not even a fraction of what it had been when she stopped Lin Ye from taking the wine cup.

Lin Ye knew exactly what Zhou Ru was up to, but he had no intention of playing along. He immediately made a firm decision: "If my beloved consort doesn't want to say, then she doesn't have to."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ru was unwilling to give up so easily and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Ye sealed his lips with hers.

"Your Majesty, please don't..." Zhou Ru hadn't expected Lin Ye to be so eager, refusing even to drink the wine before falling for her...

Zhou Ru immediately struggled violently, trying to push him away, but found that the other person's body was like a mountain, and no matter how she moved, she was powerless.

Therefore, he began to randomly pound on Lin Ye's chest.

Lin Ye felt Zhou Ru's ticklish touch, and while kissing Zhou Ru's red lips hard, he took out one hand from his "busyness" and grabbed Zhou Ru's mischievous little hand in his palm.

Immediately afterward, the instant Zhou Ru felt the heat on her lips disappear, Lin Ye moved with lightning speed. He swept her up gently in his arms, his movements tender yet carrying an irresistible force.

Zhou Ru was slightly taken aback, and before she could react, he placed her steadily on the bed.

"Your Majesty, I feel a bit chilly today and am not fit to serve you in bed..." Zhou Ru's eyes darted around slightly, then she pretended to cough a few times, her voice slightly hoarse, as if she were really suffering from a cold.

Lin Ye smiled slightly and said, "It's alright. I have divine protection. My beloved concubine's mere cold can't harm me."

Zhou Ru, having failed with her first scheme, tried another, but Lin Ye wasn't about to give her that chance. He immediately said with a touch of authority, "My beloved concubine, are you perhaps planning to slack off tonight?"

"Your Majesty..." Zhou Ru knew that Lin Ye was already prepared to attack, and that nothing she said would make a difference.

Therefore, Zhou Ru turned the tables and took the initiative, tightly embracing Lin Ye's neck with her delicate hands, her eyes sparkling with determination and deep affection.

She tilted her head slightly and said softly, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me. My feelings for Your Majesty are as fiery as a raging fire; I yearn for you more than I can bear. How could I possibly have any lingering thoughts?"

As Zhou Ru spoke, she stared directly into Lin Ye's clear black and white eyes, attempting to forcefully cast her spell.

However, as soon as he started to mobilize his spiritual energy, he felt a series of intense pains in his dantian.

She gritted her teeth and tried to continue, but soon realized that she simply couldn't continue.

Seeing Zhou Ru's lips and teeth almost touching, Lin Ye's mind raced, and he guessed that Zhou Ru was determined to cast a spell on him.

But she clearly failed.

"My beloved consort, the night is too short. Let me undress you."

"No...don't."

At that moment, a white light shot out from the bed, the candlelight went out, and the curtains fell.

Who will be sleepless tonight? Tonight is destined to be joyous.
