After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

The way Wen Qieyun describes herself is completely different from how she describes Wen Ruya.

Fortunately—

Those covers... are basically all about taking the initiative.

This is very realistic.

They did not return to their own guest room.

The master couldn't imagine what it would be like if the Pure Color Mandala saw these picture books.

The scene was so beautiful that Shi Yan couldn't accept it.

Shi Yan seemed to already see how the Pure Color Mandala would make fun of him using these picture books later.

She slipped into Donghuang Li's room.

Judging from her gradually calming heartbeat, the girl had probably fallen asleep.

Shi Yan sat on the edge of Donghuang Li's bed, turning the pages of the picture book one by one.

At this moment, she deeply resented why this book was so innocent.

Sasasa—

Donghuang Li listened to the faint sound and slowly opened her eyes.

The teacher naturally heard it as well.

However, the master did not act rashly.

Donghuang Li immediately noticed the picture book in Shi Yan's arms.

"!!!" The girl almost sat up straight in bed.

Did Shi Yan, the 'sister,' check her storage ring?

Donghuang Li had heard that some highly skilled cultivators could indeed open other people's storage rings.

She was completely devastated.

“Master Shiyan…” Donghuang Li reached out and gently tugged at Shiyan’s sleeve.

I wanted to interrupt Shi Yan and continue watching.

Shi Yan closed the picture book and took Donghuang Li's hand.

Donghuang Li lay there blinking.

The girl was wearing only a hem, with a thin silver chain around her neck, and a ring lying quietly among her lovely and alluring flower buds.

Shi Yan stared at the ring, her breath catching in her throat.

That was a ring that Shi Yan was very familiar with.

A magnificent peony is painted on the face of the ring.

She raised her hand.

Shi Yan was wearing an identical ring on her hand.

However... the ring on Shi Yan's hand had a sun symbol on its face.

A delicate silver chain was attached to the ring.

The silver chain finally wrapped around Shi Yan's wrist.

Shi Yan recalled what Lady Wenwan had said when she gave him the jewelry.

"Little Master, remember this..."

"I owe the owner of this jewelry a debt of gratitude... a debt I can never repay."

"If one day... Xiao Shiyan meets another girl wearing this bracelet..."

"You must protect her for me."

Amidst Donghuang Li's turbulent emotions, Shi Yan reached out his hand to her.

Then... in the girl's disappointed gaze.

Shi Yan simply picked up her necklace.

Shi Yan looked at the peony design on the ring.

She sensed it; this was destiny.

284 Gentle Lady, you just wait, next time I'll help you kidnap your wife! [First update, 4K words]

The girl, curled up in the blankets, looked soft and shy, her hands gently lifting the blankets, her watery eyes blinking.

Outside the bedding, only the girl's snow-white, slender neck and a small section of her fair shoulder were visible.

Donghuang Li swallowed her words.

The girl's slightly pink lips parted slightly, and a hint of inexplicable disappointment appeared in her eyes as she looked at Shi Yan examining her ring.

She was just clutching the edge of the blankets.

What's so fun about rings?

It's better to play with yourself... what I mean is... is your attractiveness really that bad?

Donghuang Li looked tense and aggrieved, as if she were being restrained.

This is probably the difference between "beast" and "worse than a beast".

However... Donghuang Li looked at the small picture book lying on Shi Yan's lap.

The girls' bodies seemed to tense up.

"The ring..." Shi Yan held the ring that Donghuang Li had been wearing around her neck as a pendant.

Shi Yan could feel the ring's intimacy towards him.

Compared to the jewelry he wore on his own hands, the peony ring that Donghuang Li hung around his neck felt much more familiar to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan could even guess what was going on.

Lady Wenwan said that she owed the owner of this jewelry a debt of gratitude... a debt of gratitude that she could never repay.

It is obvious—

Many years ago, the gentle lady and the owner of the jewelry on her hand had a deep and devoted love that lasted until death.

They each made a ring for one another.

Then they give them to each other.

The ring on my hand was probably forged by a senior member of the Taiyi Sect.

Taiyi Zong——

Its origin should be the supreme god, Donghuang Taiyi, in the "Chu Ci".

The name Donghuang Li also illustrates this point.

—Tai Li.

The Eastern Lord, who also originated from the "Songs of Chu," is the god of the sun.

The sun motif on the ring I wear is probably derived from this.

The ring contains the power of that senior's all-out attack.

That was the power of a fully-force attack from a Dao Enlightenment Realm expert.

It is enough to reverse the outcome at a crucial moment.

Back when they were in the "Tai Xu Secret Realm", Shi Yan had considered whether or not to release the power stored in the ring.

But... Shi Yan was also a little worried.

Will the Pure Color Mandala's power within the ring cause it to surge directly to the Enlightenment Realm?

If she were to truly attain the Enlightenment Realm...

Then there's truly no way to salvage the situation.

Therefore... Shi Yan never used that power.

Shi Yan sensed the ring on Donghuang Li's neck.

Peonies?

It does suit the temperament and personality of a gentle and refined lady.

It is a gift that a gentle and refined lady would give.

However... unlike the ring on his hand, which still holds the full force of an attack from a Dao Enlightenment Realm cultivator.

The ring that Donghuang Li wore on the chain no longer contained any power.

Something must have happened.

Shi Yan didn't ask any further questions.

On the contrary, Donghuang Li's body tensed up immediately.

Although... due to the aftereffects of the Pure Color Mandala skill, Donghuang Li's body is now so weak that she can't even hold the blankets tightly, and her toes can only be loosely curled up.

"You...you...you..." came the soft, delicate voice, "Despicable, shameless, filthy!"

With a blush on her face, Donghuang Li unleashed a standard three-hit combo at Shi Yan.

"They actually went through someone else's ring."

Donghuang Li seemed to be venting her anger at Shi Yan for preferring to examine the ring rather than examine it.

Shi Yan deftly tossed the ring back.

Indeed... it's quite impolite to take something out of someone's chest to look at it.

only--

The teacher probably didn't pay attention to the energy.
