After infiltrating the main characters' group, I became the most beautiful woman in the world.

Water dripped from the man's hair, making his fair skin appear somewhat pale in the moonlight.

"Why are you here?"

Su Ning did not break free from his hand, and just looked down at the person whose body was half submerged in the water.

Yu Xinglai leaped onto the nearby deck, and with a burst of internal energy, his clothes, which had been damp just moments before, dried out in no time.

"That's amazing."

Su Ning sighed.

The world of martial arts is colorful and diverse, but there's one downside: it's easy to lose your life.

"There's something even more amazing, would you like to see it with me?"

Yu Xinglai half-squatted in front of Su Ning, extending his hand in invitation. His eyes, which were usually so affectionate when looking at dogs, were now fixed on her, as if he wanted to etch her face into his heart.

Su Ning didn't answer him immediately, but instead glanced at the drunken Pei Yunlian beside her, her eyes pure and innocent, "Did you make this?"

The man grunted and sat down next to the girl, arms half-crossed, saying disdainfully, "This guy is quite cunning, getting you drunk and then sneaking off to be alone with you. I'm just giving him a taste of his own medicine."

Then he turned back to look at the pavilion, "As for that poor boy, he's utterly foolish. I don't know why Taihang Temple bestowed upon him the title of 'Son of Heaven.'"

"So you were the one who retrieved my purse before Zijin could do anything about it that day?"

It made the little dog cry.

Yu Xinglai hummed in response, without denying it.

"And what about that note?"

The fair-skinned, beautiful girl stared at you without moving, like a fairy under the moon, which disturbed Yu Xinglai's already chaotic mind.

"How unfair! I heard you were in danger at Xiaguang Mountain, and I traveled day and night for three days and three nights to get to Fuxian Town."

"Countless horses have died from exhaustion."

"Yet you call that stupid boy Zijin, but address me by my full name."

Yu Xinglai turned his head away, leaned against the deck, and looked at the starry sky, but dared not look directly into the girl's innocent eyes.

"Then what should I call you? Star? Star? Little Star?"

"How come I remember our first meeting wasn't a pleasant memory?"

Su Ning moved closer, her long, dark hair falling softly over her shoulders and brushing against the man's cheek, causing the boy beneath her to blush.

"Well, I was wrong about that, but if it weren't for that, how would we have met?"

Yu Xing knew he was in the wrong. He had always been carefree and unrestrained, doing whatever he wanted, and stealing a beautiful woman was just a simple act.

Unexpectedly, this beauty captivated him, causing him to become entangled in worldly desires.

At this moment, one would even eagerly offer their heartfelt sincerity to the other person.

Before Su Ning could laugh at him, the man suddenly straightened up, his long, slender fingers tracing the eyes of the woman before him: "If you really want to know the meaning of that note, then come with me. Do you expect me to speak ill of Brother You in front of this scheming brat?"

Su Ning suddenly lost her sight, but her hearing became increasingly sensitive. The man's hot breath enveloped her, while his restless other hand wrapped around her waist.

"rogue!"

Su Ning angrily pulled away the hand that was on her eyes, but the hand on her waist tightened its grip on her. Because of her struggle, she was pulled along by the other person and fell lightly into their arms.

"Moon Goddess, I couldn't help myself, can't you forgive me for that?"

The boy's breath sprayed all around her ears, his slightly lazy and husky voice rippling across the lake.

He even gently rubbed against the girl's soft cheek.

Su Ning wanted to say something to him, but suddenly someone grabbed her slender waist and jumped up. The feeling of weightlessness when she was off the ground made Su Ning unable to help but hug the neck of the person next to her tightly.

The culprit chuckled softly, "Don't worry, I definitely won't let you fall."

Yu Xinglai moved among the pavilions and towers, holding a soft and fragrant woman in his arms, but he held her tightly, not allowing others to see her face.

The town of Fuxian under the moonlight had lost its initial liveliness, but Yu Xinglai knew that the name of the Moon Goddess would spread far and wide tomorrow.

The treasure he spotted at first glance will be coveted by everyone.

Aside from the initial discomfort, Su Ning is now gazing with great interest at the myriad lights below, and has even found a comfortable position in the boy's arms.

Viewing it from the air offers a unique perspective.

The full moon hung overhead, the autumn wind blew through their hair, and their white gauze dresses swept through the air in a graceful arc.

Su Ning looked up and saw the moonlight shining on the sharply defined profile of the person in front of her.

After passing several rooftops, all he could hear was the sound of the wind and his steady heartbeat. In an instant, he landed in front of an elegant house.

He pushed open the door and gently placed her on the soft couch. The lights of thousands of homes and the moonlight outside the window shone in through the window.

"Is this the place you brought me to?"

Su Ning looked at the boy kneeling in front of her, her gaze sweeping around, and saw a plate of bottles and jars on the table.

It's like medicine.

Yu Xinglai followed Su Ning's gaze and scoffed, "Thanks to your brother You, you're lucky you weren't killed by him."

"Your injuries are that serious?"

Su Ning knew that You Xunchun was behind it, but she didn't know the extent of Yu Xinglai's injuries.

"Then touch me, touching me will make it stop hurting."

Yu Xinglai followed suit, moving closer to Su Ning, his narrow eyes slightly lowered, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Su Ning raised her hand, under the expectant gaze of the other person—

He flicked the other person's head.

"Stop pretending, tell me what happened!"

Yu Xinglai touched the spot where Su Ning had touched him, a slight smile playing on his lips. He leaned against the hem of Su Ning's skirt and said, "Actually, I wanted to find you as soon as you arrived in Fuxian Town."

However, his timing was unfortunate; he happened to arrive while she was taking a bath.

Although Yu Xinglai was unrestrained and acted entirely according to his own likes and dislikes, he was not such a shameless and despicable person.

They had no choice but to jump out of the window to escape.

He didn't tell Su Ning this, but simply coughed lightly, "Do you know why I haven't shown myself?"

"Is it because of Brother You?"

Su Ning gave her answer, but received only a resentful look in return. "Actually, I'd prefer you to call me Brother Xinglai."

"Let's get down to business!"

Su Ning lightly kicked the boy beside her, but he gently grabbed her ankle and shamelessly touched it.

"Alright, alright, I'll tell you."

"Although You Xunchun appears to be a frail and weak healer, the martial arts he practices should actually be able to conceal his internal strength, creating the illusion of an ordinary person."

"The injury I sustained on my right arm that day could only have been inflicted by a master of internal martial arts; in other words, this person's martial arts skills are unfathomable."

Yu Xingzi prides himself on being a young genius, with the best lightness skill in the world. Although his martial arts skills are not top-notch, few can rival him.

But he couldn't avoid the moves that You Xunchun made that day, and could only watch helplessly as Su Ning fell from his arms.

"What's worse, the silver needles weren't the most troublesome part; what caused me so much suffering was the poison on them."

"After I was rescued that day, I felt as if a million kinds of insects were gnawing at my entire body, but that was just my imagination."

"The old man who treated me went through a lot of trouble to remove the poison, and he told me to rest for a few months."

"But when I heard that remnants of the demonic sect had appeared at Xiaguang Mountain, I thought of you. I'm really afraid that person might do something to you."

Yu Xinglai looked up at the woman on the couch, his heart softening completely.
