Oh, she doesn't seem like a good child.

After drinking a cup, Xiaomeng fell asleep on the table. Before she was completely asleep, she was still thinking about whether she was a good child.

(Please note that children should really not drink alcohol!!!)

"Xiaomeng is asleep. I'll take her inside to lie down."

Jingni sat next to Xiaomeng. After seeing that she had fallen asleep, she got up, picked her up, told Qin Qi, and then left with Xiaomeng in her arms.

After that, Xue Nu didn't drink any more; she just watched Qin Qi and Qilin Ma drink. After the two of them had drunk almost all of their drinks...

The Qilin horse left; it wasn't celebrating now, as it hadn't been enjoying its drink at all.

Yeah, I'm not happy at all. It was just an act to make Qin Qi waste time and not exercise.

That's why he drank with the other person; it definitely wasn't because he wanted to drink it himself. Hmm, time to get back to training!

The Qilin Horse and the White Horse also left. At night, the Qilin Horse secretly ran out to continue training its body and increase its speed!

"When will the moon be clear and bright? I raise my cup to ask the blue sky. I wonder what year it is tonight in the celestial palace. I want to ride the wind and return, but I fear that the jade towers and crystal palaces are too cold at such heights."

"Dancing clear shadow, like in the world."

Qin Qi walked to the porch and looked at the moon outside, the sky, and the snow that had begun to fall. A good snow promises a good harvest.

The Snow Maiden walked to Qin Qi's side, nestled on his shoulder, and watched the snow fall slowly with him.

"It's been so long since I met you. This time feels like a wonderful dream."

The Snow Woman unconsciously grabbed Qin Qi's hand, as if she was worried that he would leave her after she woke up from the dream.

The calendar in the Qin Dynasty was different from ours now. For everyone's convenience, I'll use the current calendar. And today is the third update!

Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Snow Maiden's Smile Could Topple a Kingdom, A Night of Springtime Awaits, Snow Falls Like Plum Blossoms! (Second Update)

"You don't feel pain when you're dreaming. If I pinch you now, you can feel pain, so this means you're not dreaming."

Qin Qi did not reach out to pinch Xue Nu, because people in their sleep cannot tell whether they are actually being harmed.

The brain simulates the feeling of pain based on pain memory, thus giving you the illusion that you are injured while you are asleep.

But Qin Qi would never say that to Xue Nu. Sometimes, playing dumb isn't a bad thing.

"No, that's not what I meant. I just have a feeling that you might leave at any moment."

The Snow Maiden was amused by Qin Qi, but after laughing, a deep worry appeared in her eyes, and she hugged Qin Qi tightly:

"I've been traveling around a lot lately, and this kind of life is pretty good."

"But this always gives me a sense of unease, a feeling that you might leave at any moment, or rather, I'm afraid you'll leave."

The Snow Woman herself couldn't explain it, but she had a vague feeling about it, which could be considered a woman's intuition.

"…………"

Qin Qi looked at the Snow Maiden. He knew he would leave one day; once the mission was complete, he would have to leave this world.

Looking at the silent Qin Qi, Xue Nu seemed to have thought of something, and the sadness in her eyes intensified.

“You told me before that there is no place in the world where we can live in peace, and I believe you, so I choose to follow you.”

"I don't really believe in so-called love. I'm not a little girl anymore. I just want to find someone I can rely on and trust."

"Then I'll just find a place to live out the rest of my life peacefully with him, whether we're poor or rich, it doesn't matter to me."

"I've had a lot of fun with you, so... if one day you have to leave, please say goodbye to me properly, okay?"

Xue Nu looked at Qin Qi. She had seen too much hypocrisy and no longer believed in, or dared not believe in, so-called love.

She only wanted to find someone she could rely on, but "Liu Qiqi" wanted to spend her life with someone she trusted, and she no longer longed for love.

During the time she lived with Qin Qi, she thought she had found that person, but... eventually, the dream had to end.

"Sometimes you're like a naive little girl, but other times you're incredibly smart."

"But sometimes you still overthink things. I said before that I would be with you no matter where you are, or even to the ends of the earth, forever."

"While I can't say I never lie, my promises still have some value."

Qin Qi shook his head. He might have been able to leave before, but now he was finding it a little harder to do so.

He looked at the moon in the sky, without sadness. He wasn't the kind of person who would give up; he would stay here for now.

Then he will continue his research and grow stronger. Sooner or later, he will find a way to travel between worlds and return to the world of Under One Person on his own.

....................................................................................

'By the way, is there a way for the system to allow me to freely travel between two worlds?'

Qin Qi asked in his mind.

[A spacetime beacon designed to consume energy.]

'That actually works!'

'How exactly do I do it?'

Creating a Time Beacon requires a large amount of energy; you can replace this reward item with a Time Beacon.

Once the spacetime beacon is established, a spacetime portal can be opened once every seven days, connecting the original world and the anchored world.

"Entry? My beauty, this time you're really willing to risk everything to make her smile.

"Fine, everyone has their own talents, and what's lost can be regained. System, change the reward for this mission to a spacetime beacon."

Qin Qi shook his head inwardly. Between a potentially very powerful term and a portal to another time and space, he ultimately chose the portal to another time and space.

Even if the entry is gone, he can still become stronger through his own efforts, but if he gives up on people now, he may not be able to get them back.

Life is not an exam; it has no fixed answers, and the choices you make are neither right nor wrong. As long as you don't regret them decades later, that's enough.

..........................................................................................

The Snow Maiden looked up at Qin Qi, tears of sorrow streaming down her face. She looked at Qin Qi with a mixture of disbelief and delight.

"Could you say that again?"

"Then say it again."

"I may not be able to promise you anything, but I can spend the rest of my life with you, traveling to the ends of the earth, and helping you find a place where we can settle down."

Would you like me to come with you?

Qin Qi smiled and extended his hand to the Snow Maiden again, extending an invitation. The moonlight shone on his face, giving him a hazy, beautiful look.

The Snow Maiden looked at Qin Qi and heard those familiar words. She reached out and grasped Qin Qi's hand, crying and laughing at the same time, unable to distinguish whether she was crying or laughing.

"I'm willing, and although it's not the first time, you really shouldn't say such mushy things."

"I feel the same way. Don't cry. There's still a long way to go. Let's take it one step at a time."

Qin Qi reached out and wiped away the tears from the Snow Maiden's eyes. He figured he would never be able to cultivate the Great Dao of Ruthlessness in his lifetime.

But that's alright. The path he pursues is not one of forgetting his heart and emotions. His own path is simply to be natural and follow his heart.

"Do you like me now?"

The snow woman asked with a mischievous smile.

Yes, I've fallen for you now.

This time, Qin Qi felt differently than before. His vague feelings of affection had faded after spending so much time together that he realized he had genuinely fallen for this woman.

Sometimes she's very mischievous, like a little girl, but other times she's incredibly mature. Overall, she's very beautiful.

"I like you too. When I'm with you, I don't need to hide anything, pretend, or be insincere anymore. I can just do what I feel is right."

"I like this feeling."

Before meeting Qin Qi, Xue Nu hated interacting with people. She despised hypocritical people who smiled to your face but stabbed you in the back.

Because she doesn't want to interact with people, she avoids contact altogether, which is why she's often described as cold and aloof.

But being a dancer still requires interacting with people, so she had to force herself to learn, to pretend, and to be a hypocrite who said one thing to someone's face and another behind their back.

But after meeting Qin Qi, she was influenced by him and stopped pretending. She was happy when she was happy and unhappy when she was unhappy.

If you encounter someone you dislike, just beat them up. They're already wanted criminals, so one more charge won't make a difference.

"Didn't you say you wanted to see me dance? I have a dance called 'Lingbo Feiyan' (a type of graceful, ethereal dance), but I once swore I would never dance it in front of others."

"Anyone who disobeys will be met with bloodshed, whether it be mine or someone else's."

Do you want to see more?

The Snow Maiden looked at Qin Qi and spoke.

"It's very simple. Just don't treat me like a human being. I can actually not be human either. Just treat me like a tree or a flower."

Qin Qi smiled.

"Hmph, you're just being cheeky, but I'll take that as a yes."

With a wave of her hand, the snow woman closed all the doors around her and turned on the lights in the dark room.

The Snow Woman began to dance among the lights, her long blue ribbons fluttering in the air like rivers!

One by one, the lights went out, and when the room was completely plunged into darkness, the Snow Maiden came to Qin Qi's side.

The snow maiden's blue ribbons looked delicate, but they were as sharp as iron swords, each one carrying a deadly intent. At this moment, these ribbons surrounded Qin Qi.

If the Snow Maiden exerted her full strength, she might be able to strangle Qin Qi, but even so, Qin Qi did not waver in the slightest.

"I still can't beat you. I not only lost to you physically, but I also lost my heart to you."

Looking at Qin Qi like this, Xue Nu knew that her ribbons could not harm him, and she could continue to test him.

But she eventually gave up. Her heart had already been taken by Qin Qi, and even though she knew he wouldn't get hurt, she couldn't bring herself to do anything to harm him.

"Hmm~~ah!"

The Snow Maiden walked up to Qin Qi and 'accidentally' twisted her ankle, then accidentally fell into Qin Qi's arms.

"Are you okay?"

Qin Qi hugged Xue Nu and asked.

"Something happened. I twisted my back. It hurts a lot, and I can't move."

The Snow Maiden lay on top of Qin Qi, her breasts pressed against his chest. She listened to his strong heartbeat, and a slight blush rose to her cheeks.

She felt her move was too naive. What if the other person saw through her? Oh dear, why did she act so impulsively...?

"Then let me rub it for you."

Qin Qi is an expert in medicine. No, even if he wasn't, he would know that the Snow Maiden was definitely faking it, but it's like your girlfriend is being affectionate.

Do you even care whether it's true or false? Anyone with a sound mind wouldn't point it out.

As the snow woman felt those warm, large hands gently massaging her, her blush deepened.

"Go, go to your room. I should feel better after lying down for a while."

The Snow Maiden's voice was barely audible, like a mosquito buzzing. She was too embarrassed to look up at Qin Qi; it was the most embarrassing thing she had ever done.

"Ah."

Qin Qi stood up and hugged Xue Nu. Xue Nu naturally wrapped her arms around his neck and then buried her face in his chest.

When the two entered the room, Qin Qi put Xue Nu down, and Xue Nu pulled Qin Qi, causing Qin Qi to fall onto the bed with Xue Nu.

Don't worry about whether a master can be so easily defeated. Anyone would fall in that situation.

"I think I twisted my waist too, it hurts a lot and I can't move."

Qin Qi looked at the snow woman who had pulled him down and laughed.

"Then, let's lie here tonight. I'll sleep with you. After all, moving around carelessly might make things worse."

Snow Maiden naturally understood Qin Qi's meaning, and she was also looking forward to what would happen next. Qin Qi reached out and cupped her face in his hands.

After a long while, a symphony filled the room. A moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold; flowers have a delicate fragrance, the moon casts a soft shadow; songs and pipes echo softly from the pavilions; the courtyard with its swings is shrouded in the deep of night.
