Divine Seal: The Shadow Legion, I am the Shadow Lord.

Yunxuan gently unbuckled the buckle on the side of the boot, carefully slipped the small foot, clad in light blue velvet socks, out of the boot, and held it in her palm.

Lin Jialu's feet were delicately shaped, and now, as Yunxuan's palm supported them, her toes curled up slightly in tension.

"It might be a bit chilly," Yunxuan said.

Immediately, a layer of pale golden spiritual energy emanated from his palm, and through the thin fleece socks, he gently pressed his fingertips around Lin Jialu's ankle bones.

The massage was applied gently, while spiritual energy slowly seeped in, bringing waves of comfortable warmth.

"Mmm~" Lin Jialu couldn't help but let out a soft moan with a tingling sensation.

The sensation from her ankle made her heart race.

She squinted, enjoying this "special treatment," and didn't forget to give Li Xin a triumphant look.

Seeing this, Li Xin clenched her fists so tightly they cracked, her pinkish-blue eyes practically spitting fire. In her mind, she cursed Lin Jialu eight hundred times: "Vixen! Pretentious! Shameless!"

But she couldn't actually rush up and pull Lin Jialu away; that would make her seem too unladylike.

She could only stand aside, sulking, watching Yunxuan's focused profile.

Looking at Lin Jialu's "I'm so weak and need to be taken care of" expression, he was completely consumed by jealousy.

Yunxuan channeled his spiritual energy for about half a minute, and when he felt it was about right, he withdrew his hand.

She then stood up and said, "Alright, Jialu, move around a bit and see if you're alright. Just be careful next time."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jialu cooperated by gently rotating her ankle, then a look of "surprise" appeared on her face: "Oh, it really doesn't hurt anymore! Yunxuan, you're amazing! Thank you~"

"You're welcome," Yunxuan said softly, then turned to look at Li Xin.

Li Xin was initially furious, but seeing Yun Xuan finish "dealing" with that annoying guy and turn to her, her anger subsided a little.

"Little brother, I feel a bit... tightness in my chest, could you help me relieve it?" Li Xin gently held Yun Xuan's hand and said.

As she spoke, her cheeks flushed slightly, but her eyes held a hint of stubbornness and expectation as she looked straight at Yunxuan.

Unlike Lin Jialu, she wasn't pretending; she genuinely had some blood and qi imbalances.

Upon hearing this, Yunxuan's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

Relieve the chest pain? This… isn't this area a bit too sensitive?

Moreover, judging from Li Xin's blushing yet determined gaze, she was clearly not just saying it casually.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jialu immediately reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, her pale blue eyes narrowing dangerously: "Li Xin! Don't push your luck! Your minor injury will heal in a while, why are you talking about 'stressing' your chest? I think you just want to take advantage of your brother!"

"Mind your own business! I'm really not feeling well! My brother's spiritual energy is so gentle, what's wrong with channeling it a little? It's better than you pretending to twist your ankle!" Li Xin immediately retorted.

Seeing that the second round of "war" was about to break out, Yunxuan had no choice but to appease Li Xin and tell her not to be angry.

Night fell.

Yunxuan sat cross-legged in the room. In the past two years, Yunxuan's inner spiritual power has broken through to 1,700 points.

In two days, it will be time to set off for the Temple Alliance to participate in the Demon Hunter Team selection competition.

At that moment, the door was gently pushed open.

Li Xin walked in slowly, wearing a light cherry blossom-colored silk nightgown. The hem of the dress covered her knees, exposing her fair legs to the air.

She had clearly just taken a shower; her long, pink hair, usually tied in a neat ponytail, was now wet and draped over her shoulders, with water droplets still clinging to the ends.

"Sister Xin, what's the matter so late?" Yunxuan asked, looking at Li Xin.

"Well...it's nothing really important." Li Xin sat down by his bedside.

His gaze secretly traced Yunxuan, who was so close at hand; two years had sculpted him into someone even more dazzling.

Her long, black hair cascaded casually over her shoulders and neck, making her skin appear as smooth and lustrous as jade. Her figure was even more slender and upright than when she was a teenager, with near-perfect proportions.

With the two of them so close, Li Xin felt her heart beat a few beats faster than usual.

She subconsciously fiddled with a strand of hair by her ear, then took a deep breath and asked, "Little brother, I... just wanted to ask you, what kind of girl do you like?"

Yunxuan was clearly taken aback by her sudden question and asked, "Sister Xin, why are you suddenly asking me this?"

"Well, it doesn't mean anything else, it's just... I'm a little curious." Li Xin's gaze was somewhat unfocused.

Yunxuan thought for a moment, then answered very bluntly, "I prefer... pretty ones."

The answer is simple, but it also sounds rather perfunctory.

She bit her lower lip and said, "Then... if it were me and Lin Jialu, who would you like?"

After asking the question, she barely dared to look Yunxuan in the eye, feeling her face burning even more intensely.

Seeing the rare shyness on her face, Yunxuan smiled slightly and said frankly, "I think you and Sister Jialu are both very beautiful. If I really had to choose, I would definitely choose Sister Xin."

A sweet feeling instantly melted in Li Xin's heart, but then she looked at Yun Xuan with some suspicion.

Suddenly, she leaned forward, reached out and hugged Yunxuan's neck, pulling him close to her chest.

"Mmm!" Yunxuan's cheeks were immediately enveloped in a warm and soft embrace.

This sudden "facial cleanser" attack caught him somewhat off guard.

Li Xin feigned anger and said, "Although what you said makes me happy, I think you're only saying it because I'm here, right? I'm not a petty person. Tell me the truth, if you had to choose, who would you choose?"

She loosened her grip slightly, allowing Yunxuan to breathe.

But her arms were still around him, her eyes fixed intently on him, as if she wouldn't give up until she got the "truth".

Yunxuan finally managed to break free from that dizzying embrace of tenderness, looked helplessly at Li Xin, and then asked, "Can I only choose one?"

Li Xin was stunned, then her beautiful eyes widened and she said, "Well, you little rascal! You're so greedy!"

"Hey, Sister Xin, didn't you tell me to tell the truth?" Yunxuan smiled and raised his hand to block, grabbing her slender wrist.

"How dare you say that!" Li Xin reached out with her other hand to tickle him.

The two immediately burst into laughter and playful banter on the not-so-spacious bed.

Yunxuan was mindful that she had just taken a shower and was wearing a nightgown, so he didn't dare to make any big movements and mostly focused on defense and dodging.

Li Xin, however, didn't care at all and had the upper hand, specifically targeting the places he was ticklish.

The silk nightgown clung to her body, outlining her alluring curves and dazzling under the light.

"See if you dare to be greedy again next time!"

"Sister Xin... I was wrong, haha... Stop tickling me..."

At this moment, Li Xin lost her balance, cried out in surprise, and fell onto the soft bed, pressing down on Yun Xuan.

The next second, Yunxuan was firmly pinned down by her.

The two were very close, and Li Xin, as if drawn by something, immediately kissed him.

The touch of our lips together was warm and soft, with a slight tremor.

Yunxuan's pupils contracted slightly, and he subconsciously reached out to hug Li Xin, then deepened the kiss.

Li Xin's breathing became completely disordered, her mind was reeling, and she could almost hear her own heart pounding as if it were about to burst out of her chest.

"Well……"

Li Xin suddenly woke up with a start, and immediately jumped off Yun Xuan, her whole body like a fully cooked shrimp.

Her eyes were brimming with tears, filled with disbelief, shyness, and panic.

"I...I'll go back and rest first!" Li Xin said in a panic.

She immediately turned and left, not daring to look at Yun Xuan again, and fled like a frightened rabbit.

The door slammed shut behind her with a soft bang. Yun Xuan slowly sat up, watching Li Xin's fleeing figure, and shook his head with a light laugh, saying, "It seems... I'm the one who got taken advantage of, right?"

After escaping back to her room, she immediately threw herself into the soft bedding and buried her burning cheeks deep inside.

Recalling the scene from just now, how could she... how could she have kissed him? And in that position!

But Yunxuan responded!

Li Xin shook her head violently, trying to shake off the increasingly clear memory, but it only made her cheeks burn even hotter.

She's several years older than Yunxuan!

She usually refers to herself as the older sister, although she sometimes feels a little bittersweet about his closeness with Lin Jialu.

But... but it felt more like the resentment of having a cherished younger brother taken away, a habitual possessiveness at play.

But that kiss just now... that's not how a sister should react to her brother!

After a while, Li Xin turned over, looked at the ceiling, and muttered to herself, "It's normal for me to be attracted to him as he gets more and more handsome."

Then, her fingertips unconsciously touched her lips, as if his warmth still lingered.

Moreover, who took advantage of him? He took advantage of himself!

That guy... was so... proactive later on.

However… with the Demon Hunter selection competition just around the corner, and given that they both have the same profession, they probably won’t be able to join the same Demon Hunter team.
