Fairy, please don't do this!

If we stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll really lose my life to this vixen.

What Yu Fengzhi didn't know was that as soon as she left, the beautiful woman who had been so murderous just moments before trembled, her eyes became watery and unfocused, and she softly fell backward.

Of course, instead of falling to the ground, it landed in a warm embrace.

At the beginning of the month, Yue'e had a dream.

In her dream, Gu Jinzhao helped her refine the Nirvana Phoenix Flame, and she broke through to the second-grade Dao Seeking Realm. Then, she advanced unstoppably to the first-grade Dao Integration Realm.

Under her leadership, the Ehuang Clan returned to the Demon Court, suppressing both former royal families, and the Demon Court changed hands.

She became the new Demon Queen and held a grand wedding ceremony on the Jade Terrace, with people from all over the world coming to pay their respects.

Standing shoulder to shoulder with her, receiving the worship of all the demons, was none other than Gu Jinzhao.

On their wedding night, with red candles burning brightly, Yuechu'e leaned against him, her eyes half-closed in a seductive smile, and whispered, "From now on, you are only allowed to have me in your heart."

"If you dare to have any other woman with you, I will tear you to pieces."

"Apart from Madam, all other women are nothing but pretty skeletons in my eyes."

Gu Jinzhao took her hand and confessed his love.

Not long after, the man had a sudden idea: he wanted to select a few maids from the Demon Emperor's Palace to serve him personally, and he even muttered nonsense like "rabbit-eared girl" and "cat-eared girl".

At the beginning of the month, Yue'e was furious and immediately dismissed all the beautiful palace maids, leaving only the old and faded old nanny.

Gu Jinzhao was extremely disappointed and remained depressed for several days.

She eventually softened and had some fake fox ears, furry tails, and cat paw gloves made for her to wear when she indulged in pleasure late at night.

Gu Jinchao indeed enjoyed it immensely.

But after a few days, he got tired of it again and started muttering that he wanted to find a human maid to warm his bed.

Yuechu'e was furious again and confined this heartless scoundrel to the inner palace, forbidding him from going anywhere.

Then, the dream ended!

Consciousness, like jade submerged in a pool, is slowly drawn to the surface by a fine thread.

She slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was a gauze curtain hanging from a gilded curtain hook, with pearl tassels swaying gently at the corners.

Only then did he realize that he was lying on his own soft couch, covered with his usual cloud-patterned brocade quilt.

Just then, a gentle voice came from beside my ear: "Awake?"

When Yuechu'e looked up, Gu Jinzhao was sitting by the couch, his gaze gently fixed on her.

"How could I have suddenly fainted? What happened...?"

Her thoughts were still in disarray, her dizziness hadn't subsided, and the world seemed to be spinning slightly.

But soon, the memories from just now burst forth like a flood breaking through a dam, surging and sweeping across the land.

Gu Jinzhao helped her refine the Phoenix Flame, but this caused her yang energy to turn into fire.

In her attempt to help him blend the Yang Fire, she instead caused the Nirvana Phoenix Flame to go berserk, leaving her afflicted with fire poison.

To exorcise the fire poison, we had to find another way.

At the crucial moment, Yu Fengzhi's soul left her body and possessed the body of a calico cat. She infiltrated the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce to catch the adulterers in the act, and even found the secret chamber and broke in.

Left with no other choice, Gu Jinchao used illusion magic to blend into the sandalwood chair, then embraced her from behind, barely managing to deceive everyone.

Finally, as soon as Yu Fengzhi left, his tense mind collapsed, and he fainted...

Thinking of this, Yuechu'e suddenly opened her beautiful eyes wide, her cheeks instantly flushed red as if they were about to bleed.

How could I feel so ashamed?

How could I be in such a sorry state?

She tried to pull the covers over her face, but felt weak all over, unable to move even her fingertips.

Seeing this, Gu Jinchao said gently, "Although the fire poison has been exorcised, the Nirvana Phoenix Flame has burned your meridians. Madam needs to rest for some time."

"Did that brat return?"

At the beginning of the month, Yue'e's expression stiffened slightly, her eyes darting away, and the lingering spring feeling still remained in her brows and the corners of her eyes, with a faint blush spreading across the corners of her eyes, like a light sweep of rouge.

Gu Jinzhao chuckled: "After being frightened like that by Madam, how could Feng'er dare to go back?"

Chu Yue'e's cheeks and ears burned. Suppressing the surging embarrassment in her heart, she changed the subject: "And... what happened next?"

Gu Jinzhao said frankly, "After that, I helped my wife undress and bathe, and then carried her back to the bed."

"The dark room was in a mess, with sawdust and water stains, but it has been cleaned up."

"However, the glazed tile wall destroyed by Feng'er still needs to be recast..."

At that time, Yue'e had already fainted, and he could not ignore her.

Yuechu'e then realized that she was only wearing a thin nightgown, which must have been taken from her closet.

Thinking of how Gu Jinzhao undressed her, tied her clothes, wiped her body inch by inch with a towel, and then carried her back to the bed, she felt a little shy, but mostly sweet and warm.

The two had already been completely honest with each other, and after this night, she was already considered his woman.

He took care of her personally, which was not overstepping his bounds.

Yuechu'e lowered her gaze, looking at the lotus pattern on the brocade quilt, and asked softly, "What time is it now?"

Gu Jinzhao grasped her fair wrist, gently channeling his spiritual energy to nourish her damaged meridians: "There are already birds chirping outside the window, it's almost dawn!"

Although the purification of the fire poison was fraught with unexpected events, it also allowed him to advance his divine cultivation from the seventh rank to the sixth rank in one fell swoop.

The divine soul in his sea of ​​consciousness became more solid, and his perception of the world became much more acute.

As if remembering something, Yuechu'e's long eyelashes trembled slightly: "Young Master Gu still needs to report to the Demon Suppression Division. There's no need for you to stay here and take care of me."

Gu Jinzhao blinked: "Didn't Madam say that Fenghua was in seclusion?"

"Since she's not here, who will take care of Madam if I leave?"

At the beginning of the month, Yue'e felt a warmth in her heart, as if it had been washed by warm water. She couldn't help but raise her eyes and ask, "So you're not going to the yamen today?"

Gu Jinzhao tucked a slightly messy strand of hair behind her ear and replied with a smile, "I'm taking the day off today, I won't be on duty."

Feeling the gentle touch of his fingertips, Yuechu'e's lips curved into a captivating smile, and a dimple appeared on her cheek: "I feel that Young Master Gu seems to have changed somewhat from before."

"Could it be... that I've entered the state of 'being true to myself' again?"

“Of course not!” Gu Jinchao shook his head: “I just suddenly figured some things out.”

After his mental breakthrough, he did gain some insight.

According to the original plan of layering armor, I should have tried my best to restrain my true feelings and control my affection for the five female leads, keeping it at the level of "more than friends, less than lovers".

Because once the relationship is clear, being discovered to be having multiple relationships at the same time will instantly trigger a love triangle disaster.

For example, tonight, if Yu Fengzhi really caught them in bed together, he would definitely be stabbed.

Afterwards, he pondered carefully and realized that his previous plan was not comprehensive enough and that some minor adjustments needed to be made.

His romantic relationships with the five female leads were already entangled and difficult to resolve. Even if he deliberately suppressed his feelings, it could only slow down the process and buy him not much time.

More importantly, suppressing one's true nature in this way makes cultivation progress far too slow.

If this continues, the plan to stack armor may not be completed, but the favorability rating with the five female leads will already be maxed out.

After what happened last night, Gu Jinzhao decided that he would no longer be as cautious as before.

Of course, there will be no deliberate pursuit of any particular heroine. The five romantic storylines will unfold naturally without interfering with each other, just like following five pure love routes!

In this way, one's state of mind can steadily improve, and one's cultivation will not stagnate.

At the beginning of the month, her eyes were filled with curiosity, her gaze as gentle as autumn water: "What has Young Master Gu figured out?"

Gu Jinzhao smiled and said, "I've figured it out. Life doesn't have to be so tiring."

Previously, he had been terrified of the woodcutter's knife, and in matters of the heart, he had been walking on thin ice, calculating every step, which had been exhausting.

Now, everything becomes clear, and I feel a sense of lightness throughout my body, as if the world has opened up before me.

Chapter 151, "My Wife and I Are Completely Innocent" (3K)

Around noon, Gu Jinzhao left the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce, taking the opportunity to deal with a few evil cultivators from the Hehuan Sect.

If Yu Fengzhi asks about it later, it will be a good opportunity to explain where I went last night.

As the "nemesis of demonic forces" and "model of righteousness" of the Military Supervisory Office, it is only natural for him to work through the night to apprehend evil cultivators!

Just then, a soft, charming voice came from beside me: "How are you feeling, my little husband?"

Gu Jinchao asked instinctively, "How does it feel?"

An Wanxi smiled gently: "The taste of Da Bai'e."

Gu Jinzhao rolled her eyes: "You schemed against me like this, and almost ruined Yuechu'e's cultivation. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

If he hadn't temporarily played the role of a stock market guru, last night's events would likely have been difficult to resolve.

After all, once the primordial yin is lost, the demonic phoenix bloodline within Yuechu'e's body cannot undergo a complete transformation, and she will have no chance to reach the first-grade Dao Integration Realm in the future.

That would be tantamount to personally extinguishing the hopes of the Moth Phoenix Clan.

An Wanxi's smile deepened: "But now, isn't it the best of both worlds?"

"My little husband has not only broken through to the sixth rank, but the fire poison in Da Bai'e's body has also been exorcised."

At this point, she mimicked Chu Yue'e's tone: "As for scheming against my young husband, it was my fault, and I am willing to accept the family punishment."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinzhao felt both annoyed and helpless.

An Wanxi's unusually yandere personality is truly incurable.

She resorted to any means necessary to expand her harem, even scheming against her own husband.

While the two were communicating with each other using their spiritual senses, they had already returned to Qingyue Lane.

As soon as I pushed open the door, I saw a beautiful figure in fiery red sitting in the courtyard practicing her sword.

The sword intent was sharp and fierce, like a phoenix spreading its wings, sweeping across the surrounding area.

Yu Fengzhi's face was as cold as frost. Even when she saw Gu Jinzhao enter, she remained unmoved, only wielding the Red Lotus Sword in her hand with a rustling sound, as if the air in front of her was the moon goddess, stabbing again and again.

Gu Jinzhao was not in a hurry. He walked to the pavilion, sat down, poured himself a cup of fragrant tea, and sipped it leisurely.

The calico cat, which had been lying on the stone table, raised its tail, adopted a serious posture, and took the initiative to ask, "Where did you go last night, young master?"

When this matter was mentioned, Yu Fengzhi's sword stroke paused slightly.

Gu Jinzhao glanced at her and replied with a smile, "I went to the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce last night to help Madam E with her cultivation, and left afterward."

Just as the calico cat was about to press further, Yu Fengzhi's voice suddenly rang out: "If that's the case, why doesn't brother go home?"

She had already sheathed her sword and walked over, stopping in front of the pavilion.

Gu Jinchao explained calmly, “Several evil cultivators from the Hehuan Sect are hiding in the Zuihua Tower in the west of the city. They are all subordinates of the Thousand-Faced Gentleman Hua Wuyue.”

"I took advantage of the darkness and wiped them all out."

Yu Fengzhi looked at him suspiciously: "Is that really so?"

"Why would I lie to you?" Gu Jinchao said irritably. "When I came back, I had already sent the head back to the yamen and received all the credit."

Yu Fengzhi was about to ask another question when he saw a paper crane fluttering in from afar and landing lightly in front of him.

Gu Jinzhao pointed and pointed, revealing several lines of small characters.

【Young Master Gu, last night your little maidservant trespassed into the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce, not only disturbing my cultivation but also damaging a panel of glass and metal. Please compensate her for the damage…】

After reading it, he paused slightly, then frowned and looked at Yu Fengzhi: "What's going on?"

Yu Fengzhi's momentum immediately weakened by three points, and she pouted, saying, "I was worried because my brother didn't come home all night last night, so I went to the Wanhua Chamber of Commerce to look for him..."

"As for that plank wall, that vixen clearly said there was no need to pay for it, but now she's coming to ask you for it again. She's really not a man of her word!"

Gu Jinchao straightened his face, adopted the air of an elder brother, and snorted coldly: "Nonsense!"

“I told you before that refining the Phoenix Flame takes a very long time, sometimes it can take until dawn.”

"If we are disturbed during the process, both Lady E and I will suffer the backlash of the Phoenix Flame."

"Luckily, I finished my practice early last night. If you had really disturbed me, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
