He watched as the beautiful young female walked toward him, one step at a ti.
The Red Fla Fierce Tiger’s Flowing Gold Beast Eyes darted tentatively toward the slender fingers of Yu Lan, which were wrapped around the Hope Potion.
He rembered this was the very thing that had made him so uncomfortable just monts ago.
He had thought it was the start of a blissful journey, but instead, it had dragged him straight from the heavens and plunged him to the earth.
An inexplicable fear crept into Jun Lin Yuan’s heart. His limbs retreated backward, the movent almost imperceptible.
But how could such a subtle movent escape the notice of Yu Lan, whose entire focus was fixed on Jun Lin Yuan?
She was afraid the Red Fla Fierce Tiger would run off and cause trouble for others. A male in heat wasn’t known for his rationality.
Yu Lan’s expression instantly turned serious. She commanded in a fierce tone:
"Jun Lin Yuan, you stay right there and don’t move."
The Red Fla Fierce Tiger, which had been planning to sneak a few more steps back, froze instantly. Its massive, powerful body went rigid, not daring to move an inch.
He watched as Yu Lan drew closer and closer.
The beautiful female’s face lood larger before his eyes.
He was so close he could even sll the faint, sweet scent wafting from her.
The Red Fla Fierce Tiger watched, wide-eyed, as Yu Lan reached out with her small, fair, and delicate hand.
This was the very hand that had brought him agony when he’d mistaken its touch for the promise of bliss.
’Run!’ the Red Fla Fierce Tiger scread internally. ’I can’t go through that pain again!’
But as he was held by Yu Lan’s amber eyes—more clear and translucent than any gemstone—his limbs felt nailed to the ground, unable to budge an inch.
All he could do was squeeze his eyes shut.
The muscles in his powerful legs tensed, their outlines faintly visible.
This was a great tiger, only recently co of age. He was young and agile, his body brimming with a seemingly endless, scorching-hot power. He was the very picture of youthful vigor.
’Could it be that this proud, aloof, and powerfully indifferent man is actually afraid of needles?’ Yu Lan glanced at the eye-shut Jun Lin Yuan, a flicker of confusion in her gaze.
’It’s an unexpectedly cute side to him.’
The thought flashed through her mind.
The next second,
the Hope Potion was unceremoniously injected into the Red Fla Fierce Tiger.
A cool liquid coursed through his scorching body, like rain falling on a parched, withered land. A wave of comfort and relaxation washed over him, welling up from deep within.
A flash of white light flared before his eyes.
The Red Fla Fierce Tiger slowly began to transform back into Jun Lin Yuan.
And at that mont,
the special forces mbers, who had rushed over fearing sothing was wrong, arrived in front of Yu Lan’s tent.
They of course knew this was Yu Lan’s tent. After all, she was a female whose brilliance and dazzling beauty were known throughout the entire interstellar community.
That very afternoon, they had been right here, filling out a survey that took a full ten minutes and covered all sorts of information.
The whole ti, the beautiful female had just sat there quietly, waiting for them to finish, without a single hint of impatience or a single word to rush them.
She even encouraged them not to rush, to take their ti thinking, to fill it out item by item, and told them they could have so water if they were thirsty.
This group of young males, who had clawed their way up through the ranks of the legion, had never encountered such a gentle female.
They had etched the scene into their minds. It was safe to say not a single male among them would ever forget this was Yu Lan’s tent.
So now,
upon realizing the tiger’s roar had co from here, all the special forces mbers on site exchanged glances, their faces clouded with confusion.
"No way."
"It couldn’t be the Star Lord, could it?"
"Didn’t he say he didn’t want to see Princess Yu Lan? He wouldn’t go behind our backs to et her, would he?"
And it was the middle of the night, no less.
A single male appearing in a female’s room...
One could only assu he was trying to seduce the female, to sleep his way into securing a formal status.
’Surely our wise, great, and awe-inspiring Star Lord wouldn’t do sothing so shaless, right?’
Most importantly, just that day, he had sternly rejected her in front of everyone, making a grand show of his pride and aloofness.
His rejection had caused many other males—who were hoping to use the ti before the competition to curry favor with the beautiful female on the off chance she’d pick one of them—to back off completely.
What a joke!
Who would dare to compete with their own commanding officer?
What if he targeted them later on?
’Who would’ve thought...’
’Star Lord, you with your honest-looking face... turns out what you say and what you do are two completely different things, huh?’
’Could it be that the roar just now was deliberate? A way to get us to co over and catch him in the act, to force his status to be officially recognized?’
"So what do we do? Are we going in or not?"
"Should we call out to them?"
The young special forces mbers who had rushed over looked at each other, and a tense stalemate fell over them.
They had no idea what to do.
They weren’t exactly whispering.
Every single word reached the ears of Jun Lin Yuan, who now stood before Yu Lan in his human form.
All that talk about him doing it on purpose.
About him shalessly trying to sleep his way to the top.
About him using this as an opportunity to secure his official status.
Jun Lin Yuan himself heard every last one of their wild, unfiltered speculations loud and clear.
Jun Lin Yuan looked up, his flowing-gold-like eyes eting Yu Lan’s beautiful, smiling ones.
His reflection was mirrored in her clear amber eyes, and he felt as if his every thought had been laid bare, completely seen through by her gaze.
Jun Lin Yuan’s ears burned bright red.
The proud and fiery young Jade Star Lord clenched the fists hanging at his sides.
But he didn’t dare to just charge out and punch each of those wildly speculating special forces mbers.
Finally, just as the special forces mbers steeled themselves to call out and send soone in to investigate,
without even having ti to say a word to Yu Lan—or more accurately, being far too embarrassed to speak to her at all—
his tall figure stirred a faint breeze. He unleashed the full extent of his 3S-level talent, but only to sneak out from the back of Yu Lan’s tent, unseen by the n outside.
He looked exactly like a lover caught mid-tryst, about to be exposed, forced to grab his things and sneak away to protect the reputation of his beloved female.
The mont Jun Lin Yuan slipped out from a corner at the back of the tent, the special forces mbers at the entrance cleared their throats and called out loudly:
"Princess Yu Lan, we just heard a roar from inside your tent."
"Do you need any help?"
「Inside the tent」
Yu Lan had been secretly enjoying the show, amused by Jun Lin Yuan’s predicant. She hadn’t expected her own n to be so entertaining.
She had been wondering how Jun Lin Yuan was going to clear his na of the "scheming lover who sleeps his way into a title" rumor.
But she never expected him to just bolt without saying a single word.
Now it was her turn to deal with the situation.
The sound of another male coming from her tent right after her own n had left...
’Oh, gods!’
Yu Lan covered her face. She could already picture how jealous and hurt Huo Zhanting and the others would be when they heard the news tomorrow. They would be begging for kisses and hugs, using this incident as an excuse to demand even more from her.
’That Jun Lin Yuan has really caused so trouble!’
