"We are waiting for a mother bear to come. We can only leave after the task is completed."

The bear demon, who should have been ferocious and violent, looked at Ye Xun, as if he understood something, and then shook his head in a very human way.

"I see, you haven't done it with that woman yet.

If not, why come here?"

The bear looked into the distance and saw a female bear demon entering the habitat.

"If you don't pair up, you'll be trapped here forever."

Most of the monsters in the habitat were surprisingly friendly, and the bear monster seemed to be giving advice, and after saying that, he slowly walked towards the female bear.

After a brief contact, the great harmony of life began.

After all, the ethics of monsters and humans are different. For them, this kind of behavior is as normal as eating and sleeping. The ultimate goal is just to reproduce.

But it is different for humans. Once the line between men and women is crossed, the cause and effect can be much more severe than any other relationship, and is bound up with "affection" and "love".

But if what the bear demon said was correct, this "habitat" would most likely trap him for the rest of his life.

Ye Xun couldn't afford to wait. He only had time to live to the age of twenty-four. If he couldn't cure his illness and repair the Heavenly Book before then, he would die.

However, the proud sword master would never give himself up for this.

Yu Keqing quietly looked at everything outside in the tent, holding the koi in the jar in her hand.

She also secretly listened to everything the bear demon said.

The dreams at night and the combination of Yin Mi and the monsters during the day also tortured Lord Jianshou so much that he could only hold on.

In fact, these days, Yu Keqing's views on Ye Xun have been a little complicated.

On the one hand, because the evil spirit awakened the emotions that had been buried for many years, she could no longer be as absolutely rational and decisive as before.

On the other hand, Ye Xun's actions these days did make her feel confused.

When she was desecrated by him in her dream, Yu Keqing couldn't help but feel extremely angry.

But every time Ye Xun ate her roasted fish, applied medicine to her injured feet, and watched over her safety outside the tent, he brought a strong sense of security to Yu Keqing who had fallen from the clouds.

The clouds are falling.

Yu Keqing's heart moved slightly, and she suddenly remembered something.

Perhaps, if I could regain my strength, I could take that sense of security into my hands.

What if the sudden awakening of her emotions is actually an opportunity for her?

Yu Keqing practiced the art of swordsmanship for her entire life, but in the end, she encountered a bottleneck before breaking through the dome.

Hundreds of years ago, the master who taught her the Forgetful Sword Technique had also encountered such a situation. Before her death, she expressed her regret to Yu Keqing.

Yu Keqing, who was emotionally indifferent at the beginning, could not understand the regret, but now that she is in trouble, she suddenly understands.

What's more, what the bear monster said was right. If she didn't go with Ye Xun... she might not be able to get out.

The dream would repeat every night, and it would become more and more outrageous. If she didn't get out, would she, Yu Keqing, have to live with this dream for the rest of her life?

So, maybe just try it once.

Yu Keqing bit her lip slightly, still feeling conflicted.

They had agreed not to bother Mo Yin anymore after he recovered, and Ye Xun had indeed been a man of his word in his actions during this period...

He never showed any extra interest in me, he was indeed aloof.

Yu Keqing suddenly laughed, as if mocking herself. Her snow-white hair swayed slightly, a strand of hair fell at the corner of her mouth, and her red eyes were hazy, like a ghostly candlelight, staring closely at Ye Xun's back.

Chapter 105: Fog of Doubt

The bear demon had already left contentedly with his partner, and only Ye Xun and Yu Keqing were left by the Habitat Lake.

It's getting dark, it's time to rest.

Ye Xun looked at the water level of the lake which was beginning to recede, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

This habitat actually showed signs of closing.

If what the bear monster said is true, if one cannot find a mate one will be trapped here forever, then when Ye Xun and Yu Keqing just broke in here, they should have seen the single monster that stayed here last time.

Even if there are no monsters, there should at least be corpses.

But they saw nothing.

However, it will take some time before the lake dries up completely.

Behind him, the white-haired swordsman, wearing Ye Xun’s Taoist robe, had a conflicted look in his eyes.

Even though she knew that she had no choice but to do this in order to get out, she still found it difficult to get over it. After all, she had been lonely for a hundred years and she was not even used to having someone touch her hand.

Ye Xun had even touched her feet, but refused to go any further.

"Let's rest first."

Ye Xun looked back at Yu Keqing. Now he had not found any other way to get out, so he had no choice but to maintain his condition.

The white-haired woman was still holding the glass jar in her hand, but there was a black miniature koi fish inside.

He actually had some idea of Yu Keqing's condition, and his "Spiritual Spirit Calming Prescription" was not able to suppress the evil spirit thoroughly.

If stimulated, there is still a possibility of relapse, so he must be extremely cautious.

Yu Keqing nodded.

Ye Xun also listened to what the bear demon said that day, but at this moment it seemed that it had no intention of doing anything to him.

Yu Keqing didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. She was depressed and let out a deep breath without leaving a trace.

She slowly lay down, turned sideways with her back to Ye Xun, and looked at the two koi in the glass jar.

On weekdays, this white koi would always swim around Yu Keqing's hair.

But at this moment, it seemed to have suddenly lost interest in other things and just swam around following the black koi.

That was understandable. After all, it had been alone in the jar for several days, circling around the illusory white hair coming from the water surface all day long.

A fish will die if it leaves the water, so it is destined to have no chance of getting that strand of white hair.

[If it can't get out of the water, you can't become an immortal~]

The devil's secret language began to echo in her ears again, the voice was exactly the same as Yu Keqing's own, except that it was a little more teasing.

Sometimes, she couldn't tell whether she was just mumbling to herself or not.

The white fish was injured when she caught it, and it couldn't swim fast. So when the black fish swam in front, it could only follow far behind.

The space in the jar was very small, and the black fish kept swimming and stopping, as if giving the white fish time to catch up, but there was always a gap in between.

How noble! Yes, in the jar, no matter how much they struggle, there will be no good ending.

With a faint red glow in her eyes, Yu Keqing suddenly reached into the water, pinched the black koi's tail, and lifted it out of the water.

The koi opened its mouth and its gill covers opened and closed. Its lifeless eyes showed no emotion, but its struggle looked somewhat painful and its scales gradually lost their luster.

Yu Keqing's movements were very gentle and she seemed to be smiling. She waited until the black koi seemed tired of struggling and then put it into the water.

Look, isn’t this catching up?

The white fish lifted up the black fish with some heartache, almost turning it upside down. The secret words in Yu Keqing's ear even began to dissuade herself.

In other words, it was the real "Yu Keqing" who was stopping his own evil spirit.

……

Ye Xun had a dream, which was like the smoke from a candle, hazy and choking.

The last moment he was lying on the hospital bed, dying, flipping through various books and periodicals, and was eventually tortured to death on the white bed.

The next moment, he appeared beside a pool of water, peeking at the naked woman's back. Her hair was as white as snow, and her skin was as white as mutton fat. She was surrounded by mist and could not be seen clearly. He took half a step forward, but stepped on a dead branch.

Ye Xun suddenly woke up from his dream, his weak body began to gasp uncontrollably, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

"What, are you having nightmares again?"

A white-haired woman was sitting beside the bed, dressed in white, but her pair of red eyes were looking at him calmly.

The boudoir was filled with a faint sandalwood scent, and the furnishings were also elegant white. There were several medical books stacked in the corner, and a sword full of cracks was displayed in the corner of the wall.

He recognized all the items on display, but they just didn't fit in with the environment and gave him a strange feeling.

Ye Xun was sweating profusely, but the woman gently patted him on the back, and the place where her palm touched made him sweat even more.

"you are?"

"Could it be that you stayed up too late and forgot even your master?"

"Master?"

Looking at Yu Keqing's beautiful profile, he muttered guiltily.

"You have been weak since childhood. I have told you so many times. Where in the medical books of mortals is there any way to cure your body?"

Yu Keqing smiled gently, seemingly not noticing the fear and confusion in Ye Xun's eyes.

"I'll wipe your body, don't catch a cold."

Yu Keqing unbuttoned Ye Xun's clothes. He instinctively felt something was wrong, but his body was as stiff as wood.

So, I watched helplessly as the white-haired woman wiped her body carefully with a wet towel and put her clothes back on. During the whole process, she was as obedient as a puppet.

This scene seemed familiar, but Ye Xun felt a sense of absurdity and dislocation.

"I'm going to take a shower. You should go to bed early."

After saying that, Yu Keqing stood up and left, apparently going to the next room.

After a while, the sound of gurgling water was heard.

Ye Xun was lying on the bed, feeling extremely sleepy. He vaguely recalled the misty dream he had just had. The back of the woman in the dream seemed to be exactly the same as his master's.

He remembered that he was born with a defect that made him unable to move around easily, and that he was predicted to live no longer than twenty-four.

And then, it seemed like something was still missing.

It was as if a piece of Ye Xun's mind was deleted. He only remembered that he met Yu Keqing when he was out looking for a life-extending remedy. Although he did not find the illusory remedy that time, the two fell in love with each other over time.

But his body was too weak, and he refused to give up on ways to prolong his life, so he and Yu Keqing continued to drag on in this ambiguous state.

In order to have a status so that she could take care of him more conveniently, Yu Keqing had no choice but to accept him as her disciple so that they could live together.

This wait lasted for more than 20 years, during which time Yu Keqing had been taking care of him without leaving his side, just like just now, without any complaints.

Ye Xun was thinking in a trance, and instinctively felt guilty for what Yu Keqing had done. He struggled to sit up from the bed.

After all, he was going to die, but he still made her wait for decades.

What if my life span is only 24? If I had seen it clearly earlier, why would I have let Yu Keqing wait for me for so long in vain?

Ye Xun stood up and wanted to go to the next room to talk things out with Yu Keqing, but he touched the candlelight next to him. The floating white smoke made him cough and his vision became a little blurry.

Faintly, he seemed to see a torn scroll emitting golden light appear in front of him, but when he looked up, all that was left was the boudoir decorated in pale white.

No, I must have forgotten something!

In the next room, a woman was lying in the bathtub with a wicked smile on her lips. Her jade feet were raised, splashing some water.

In the end, she won.

Unlike the unsympathetic Yu Keqing, as a demon, she is the embodiment of the seven emotions and six desires after being separated.

Yu Keqing didn’t know whether she loved Ye Xun or not, but she loved him so much that she wished she could tie the young man to her side forever.

As long as Ye Xun breaks into this room and is completely captured by the evil spirit of "Yu Keqing", the real Ye Xun will become a puppet who obeys her orders.

As for the originally pure-hearted sword master, he was completely unable to seize control at this moment and was suffering greatly inside her body.

Chapter 106 Awakening from a Dream

Ye Xun was still thinking, but in the blink of an eye he appeared in the next room.

The room was filled with mist, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse outside the window, it felt clearly like summer, but no insects could be heard, and everything was quiet.

The woman who was bathing had her back to him. She seemed to have heard the voice but did not turn back in a hurry.
