She could not deny what had happened between them.....the most intimate bond between man and woman.
Even now, traces of Ye Chen's life essence lingered within her body.
And yet, to her, that experience felt far from honorable.
She had tried countless tis to forget that night.
She told herself repeatedly that losing her body to a man did not an she had to belong to him.
But no matter how she reasoned, she couldn't erase the mory. Sotis, it haunted her even in ditation.
"Forget it… there's no use thinking about this."
With a soft sigh, Yun Yun lifted the robe from her body. Slowly, she undressed, her movents as graceful as flowing water.
Her flawless form, pale and smooth like carved jade, glimred faintly beneath the dim light of the cavern.
For a brief mont, she glanced toward the cave entrance, a shy blush tinting her cheeks.
…
anwhile, Ye Chen returned with several fresh fish in hand.
When he entered, he found Yun Yun already seated in ditation....yet she had changed.
A snow-white dress now wrapped her form, her long hair bound once more with a phoenix-shaped ornant.
The noble aura around her had returned in full.
The faint softness of the past few days had vanished completely.
"So… Teacher has broken the seal," Ye Chen thought with a quiet sigh, forcing a calm expression as he began preparing the fish over the fire.
When the aroma of roasted fish filled the air, Yun Yun opened her eyes. Her lips pressed together as she lifted her gaze toward Ye Chen.
At that sa instant, Ye Chen sensed her movent and looked up as well—their eyes t in silence.
For a brief heartbeat, neither spoke. Then Yun Yun turned her gaze away, pretending composure, while Ye Chen quietly continued tending the fire.
"The fish is ready," Ye Chen finally said, breaking the silence. "Co, eat."
"…Mm."
Her reply was soft. In the next mont, her figure blurred.....when she reappeared, she stood right before him.
That effortless speed confird what he had already guessed: she had regained her full Dou Emperor strength.
Taking the roasted fish from his hand, Yun Yun sat gracefully beside him.
She tore off a small piece, savoring it slowly before speaking, her tone calm but tinged with sothing unspoken.
"My cultivation… has fully recovered."
Ye Chen's hand paused mid-motion.
After swallowing the food in his mouth, he nodded faintly.
"I knew the mont I returned."
"Once I finish eating, I'll be leaving this place," she said quietly, her eyes lowering slightly, a trace of reluctance hidden within her voice.
"I figured as much."
Ye Chen's reply was calm, almost detached. He had no intention of stopping her.
Their paths would cross again soday....but when they did, it would no longer be as man and woman, only as teacher and disciple.
"I'm called Yun Zhi," she said suddenly, her eyes glimring with sothing hopeful. "And you?"
Ye Chen looked at her, montarily taken aback.
Of course, he knew that wasn't her true na.
But he also didn't want her to rember him while clinging to false identities.
Smiling faintly, he answered,
"Yun Zhi… a beautiful na.
But why cling to nas? What matters is that we both rember this ti we shared.
Everything else is just dust on the wind."
"You—" Yun Yun's expression froze, the tenderness in her eyes hardening into frost. "You won't even tell your na?"
Her voice trembled slightly with anger. After all, she had humbled herself to ask again, and his evasive answer struck her as callous.
In any other ti, such a man would be called a scoundrel.
Without another word, she flung the roasted fish at him and turned sharply toward the exit.
"I'll see you off....." Ye Chen caught the fish and placed it back near the fire, ready to follow her.
"No need!"
Her voice, sharp yet laced with emotion, echoed back.
A swirl of azure wind burst forth from her palm, surging toward him.
Ye Chen barely had ti to brace himself before the force pushed him several steps back.
By the ti he steadied, the cave was already empty.
Outside, Yun Yun paused briefly, glancing back one last ti.
Then her azure wings unfolded, and she soared gracefully into the sky.
At the cave entrance, Ye Chen appeared just as her figure dwindled into the horizon.
He raised his hand slightly and murmured,
"Teacher… we'll et again soon."
When the last trace of her aura vanished, Ye Chen turned back inside.
His mind sank into his inner world, his gaze focusing on a pair of silver wings radiating with boundless thunderous energy.
