Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Listening to Mu Ciyin speak the words hidden in her heart, Jun Wuxie finally felt that she could bravely face her innermost emotions.

However, she still hasn't truly and completely opened her heart, nor has she lowered all the fortresses within it.

His original Dao injury this time was a catalyst, allowing her to bravely take the most crucial step, but…

Thinking of this, Jun Wuxie sighed and said, "You're finally willing to admit your feelings. Actually, I knew you liked me, I already knew it in the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm.

But this time, the choice you made is still primarily to help me heal my original injury. Your emotional factors for me are ranked after that, do you admit this?"

Mu Ciyin's red lips trembled slightly a few times, wanting to say something, but she didn't know how to answer, let alone how to refute.

Because what he said was all true.

"When I first arrived in the Lower Realm this time, the Ancestor and Ancestral Mother said they wanted to host a wedding for us, to have me marry you. I told them my thoughts at the time, and the Ancestral Mother even said I was too stubborn.

Perhaps they thought I was too perfectionistic, and that some things could be slowly changed in the years to come.

But they didn't know who I was in my previous life. Regarding cultivation, I understand more than they do.

In a situation like yours, without completely letting go of the deepest obsessions in your heart, without fully opening your heart, before love reaches its peak and things fall into place naturally, your Dao Heart will definitely be tainted, and it will be engraved in your Dao Fruit.

So, I'm not pursuing perfection, I'm worried about you, unwilling to leave hidden dangers for you because of myself.

I know how much you care about me, but you should also know how much I care about you.

Over the years, we've experienced so much together, can't you feel it?

I hope that in this matter, you won't unilaterally think you're doing it for my own good, without considering what kind of impact this will have on my heart.

Love is mutual, isn't it? You feel sorry for me, how can I not feel sorry for you.

If I were to just accept cultivating with you like this, it would mean that I don't really care about you that much, and you, Mu Ciyin, would not be able to accept such a reality."

Mu Ciyin fell into silence after hearing these words, and at the same time, her heart was also very moved. His words were like a warm current flowing through her heart, making her feel warmth.

It turned out that his firm refusal had always been for the sake of her future.

"Also, you're not allowed to seduce me, it's really going to be very difficult to endure. That night in Ice Heart Pavilion, when you appeared before my bed without a stitch of clothing, do you know how much willpower I needed to resist?

Don't you know how attractive your body is to the opposite sex?

Think about Fallen Red Dust, they tried so hard to capture you, not hesitating to set up a plan that spanned hundreds of thousands of years, even starting in your previous life."

"Who… Who wants to seduce you…"

Mu Ciyin left his embrace, turned her back to him, and said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have that kind of thought, nor will I do that."

Although her tone was very calm and cold, even with a hint of anger, the fair skin on her face was stained with rosy clouds.

"Alright, I'm just overthinking it."

Jun Wuxie did not continue this topic.

Why did Mu Ciyin return to the Lower Realm?

It was impossible for her to know in the Upper Realm that there was a secondary body of her previous life in the Lower Realm.

So what did she come to the Lower Realm to do?

That day when he was chatting with Jingya and Yan Qingcheng, he learned from them that Mu Ciyin had been with them for a long time, and even often spent time alone with Yan Qingcheng, the two of them even staying in the same room at night, sleeping in the same bed.

With her personality, it was impossible for her to do such a thing, there was no reason to be so intimate with Yan Qingcheng alone.

Moreover, at that time, when Mu Ciyin was mentioned, although Yan Qingcheng behaved normally, he could always see that strange expression in her eyes.

"After returning to the Upper Realm, I want you to promise me one thing."

Mu Ciyin turned around and looked at him, the blush on her face had disappeared, she had returned to her usual cold and indifferent state, like a fairy walking out of a world of ice and snow.

"What is it, tell me."

Jun Wuxie certainly wouldn't agree in advance, he had to see what it was, lest he get himself trapped.

What if she said she wanted to cultivate with him.

"I can promise you that I won't be obsessed with repairing your origin for a while, but you have a serious origin injury, and I'm always worried.

Now my realm is only one step away from the pinnacle, which is the Eternal Giant, and I can also fight multiple opponents, so after returning to the Upper Realm, if you want to go out, you must let me follow, otherwise I will be uneasy."

"I promise you then."

"You must keep your word, you can't break your promise again. You promised me that time too, but you went to the White Bone Abyss, to the Ominous State, without letting me know."

"This… I did break my promise on this matter, but I will never deceive you this time, rest assured."

Jun Wuxie looked at her very seriously, expressing his sincerity with his eyes.

Mu Ciyin stared at him, met his gaze for a long time, and then nodded gently, then turned and walked towards the outside of the Dragon Ridge Mountains.

"Wait." Jun Wuxie grabbed her and said, "You've come down to the Lower Realm twice, but you haven't had a good look at the mountains and rivers of the Lower Realm, let's take a walk."

Mu Ciyin was stunned, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and a hint of joy instantly appeared on her cold, peerless face.

She was very happy that he would take the time to accompany her.

"I'll accompany you for a few days, once I return to the sect, I'm afraid I won't have time to accompany you."

Jun Wuxie took her out of the Dragon Ridge Mountains, walking between the magnificent mountains and rivers.

Their speed was not fast, but of course it was impossible to be as slow as mortals.

They stopped in the vast plains, overlooked the mountains and rivers from the towering peaks, strolled along the banks of the rushing rivers, and watched the beautiful sunset in front of the lake.

"Are you really not in a hurry to go back and accompany them, and your children."

Although Mu Ciyin really wanted to spend time alone with him, she couldn't help but think of him, afraid that he would be entangled in his heart, thinking of his imperial consorts and children.

"There are no urgent matters in the Upper Realm at the moment, it's rare to have some leisure time, this time I plan to stay in the Lower Realm for a year or two, to accompany them well, there's no need to rush these ten days and a half months."

Hearing this, Mu Ciyin's fingers quietly passed through his fingers, interlocking tightly.

Jun Wuxie's heart skipped a beat.

Although Mu Ciyin has dared to face her inner emotions, it was still a bit unexpected for her to take the initiative to interlock fingers with him.

Between men and women, interlocking fingers, such an action is conveying the emotion of never separating forever, at least at the moment of interlocking, that is the state of mind.

As for how many people in the world can do it, it is difficult to say.

But Mu Ciyin can definitely do it, and Ye Qingxue, who has interlocked fingers with him several times, will also definitely be able to do it.

"I'm tired, let's take a break."

In front of a picturesque lake, Mu Ciyin's face was not very good, slightly pale.

She had been fighting fiercely in Yinling Mountain for so long, her energy and spirit were greatly depleted, and she had not sat down to concentrate on recovering since she came out.

Along the way, she had been walking with Jun Wuxie while letting her body recover on its own, which was very slow.

Jun Wuxie originally wanted her to stop and recover, but she refused, not wanting to waste time on it.

Being able to spend time alone with him like this, without any disturbances, without thinking about other things, was extremely rare.

She pulled Jun Wuxie to sit down on the bluestone by the lake, took off her shoes, revealing a pair of crystal clear jade feet, carved like immortal jade, as beautiful as works of art.

She put her feet in the water, but saw Jun Wuxie stunned for a moment.

The corners of Mu Ciyin's mouth raised slightly, revealing two shallow dimples, and she said softly, "Are my feet pretty?"

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but look at her in surprise when he heard this.

He really didn't expect Mu Ciyin to ask such a question, which was completely inconsistent with her usual personality.

His first reaction was that she had learned it from Yan Qingcheng, and was deliberately seducing him.

But when he saw the expectation in her clear, ice-like eyes, he changed his mind.

At this moment, he could feel that she was not asking him this way for any purpose, but from the bottom of her heart.

"Of course they are beautiful, you are Mu Ciyin, every part of your body is perfect and flawless, even surpassing the limits of beauty."

As soon as Jun Wuxie's voice fell, Mu Ciyin lifted her feet, which had just been put in the water, from the cool lake water. The lake water flowed down her skin, which was smoother and more delicate than ice jade, flowing down her back to her toes, dripping down.

Then, she put her perfect jade feet on Jun Wuxie's lap and whispered, "It's good that you like them, I, Mu Ciyin, will only show my beauty in front of you, Jun Wuxie, in my life."

Her voice was cold, but her tone was gentle, and her eyes revealed affection.

"Ciyin, how can you…"

Jun Wuxie was surprised by her change this day, from the initial initiative to interlock fingers, to snuggling with him, and now putting a pair of perfect jade feet in his arms.

He had never thought that Mu Ciyin would do such a thing and say such words without any purpose.

Mu Ciyin smiled, smiling very brightly and charmingly.

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but be a little dazed by her smile. This smile surpassed all the scenery in the world, making him feel that his entire inner world was incomparably bright, like warm sunshine shining on every corner of his heart.

"I have already told you the deepest emotions in my heart, so why should I suppress myself as I did in the past.

Although we have been together for a long time these years, we have never had such a peaceful day. I just want to spend time with you in such days without any worries. It turns out that I, Mu Ciyin, can also be gentle, and can also be as charming as other women.

I didn't understand before, and even pretending was difficult, but now, I can't help myself. Perhaps, some women in this world will only show their charm in front of the people they care about the most.”

Mu Ciyin's gentle tone was tinged with emotion. In truth, she was also surprised by her own mindset, but at this moment, she couldn't help but want to show him her beauty, and even more so, wanted her beauty to be recognized and appreciated by him.

When merging with the secondary body from her previous life, she obtained some vague memories from the Dao Fruit.

In those vague memory fragments, she seemed to see the shadow of Jun Wuxie. She even suspected that she had seen him in a previous life.

Since having those vague memory fragments, she found herself feeling even closer and more attached to him.

Jun Wuxie gently held her delicate jade foot in his arms, gazing at her clear eyes filled with tenderness, "Do you really not mind that I have so many imperial consorts?"

"Why should I mind?" Mu Ciyin revealed a hint of confusion, saying, "Even mortal emperors have three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines. Are they worthy? Compared to you, they don't even have the right to look up to you.

You are the master of a realm, and in the future, you will be the master of the heavens. Isn't it normal to have a few imperial consorts?

Moreover, the higher the realm of a cultivator, the stronger their bloodline, and the lower the probability of giving birth to offspring. If you only have a few imperial consorts, then the probability will be even lower. Don't you want to have children in the future?

"What you said is true. The strength of my bloodline now makes it difficult for them to conceive. Only when they reach the Heavenly Emperor or Wudao realm will the chances increase.

As it stands now, the difference between their bloodlines and mine is too great, making it almost impossible for them to become pregnant."

"Using essence blood through special means can indeed produce offspring, just like my Ice Heart Pavilion, but that is different from offspring in the traditional sense, and the probability of inheriting a complete bloodline is very low. It's a last resort.

My Ice Heart Pavilion only accepts women, so we have no choice but to use this method. You must not do this.

In the future, when the heavens are pacified and you become the master of the heavens, you should strengthen your family and have many children and grandchildren.

After all, no one can guarantee that a similar doomsday flood will not occur in some future era. The stronger the family and the greater the number of top experts, the more likely it is to maintain lasting peace and prosperity."

"You're right. Even if we reach the ultimate state of transcendence, we cannot be completely certain that it is the end of cultivation. Perhaps there are still hidden innate realms of nothingness that have not been discovered, worlds that existed before the birth of the universe, so we must never lose our sense of vigilance."

Jun Wuxie had a very deep understanding of the heavens in his previous life, but he was not sure whether there were any hidden realms of nothingness that existed before the birth of the universe.

Perhaps only after reaching the ultimate state of transcendence can one explore the truth, and whether the path of cultivation can continue after the ultimate state of transcendence can only be known when one reaches that realm.
