Shangguan Yunying took a deep breath, deciding to up the ante:
"Then I can bark like a dog!"
She opened her mouth and immediately barked:
"Woof woof woof! Can you do that?"
Lin Qingyan didn't even furrow her brow:
"Woof woof woof!"
The same three barks, just as crisp, and just as unhesitating.
Gu Chengyin: "......"
His temples began to throb, and for a moment, he actually didn't know how to handle the situation.
Lin Qingyan was actually kneeling in front of him barking like a dog?
This was enough to make any normal man lose his mind!
Even Gu Chengyin, faced with such astonishing temptation.
He had to close his eyes and force himself to calm down.
Lest he lose control and completely fall into the abyss of desire.
That would truly not be worth the cost.
Meanwhile, Shangguan Yunying's eyes were already lit up like two lanterns.
She looked at Lin Qingyan, then at Gu Chengyin, an unprecedented sense of excitement surging in her heart.
So Lord Jingzhe was this easy to provoke?
So as long as it involved Gu Chengyin, she would lose her rationality?
So this aloof and lofty fairy was nothing more than a little woman in front of Gu Chengyin?
Shangguan Yunying licked her lips, ready to raise the stakes even higher.
"Then I can eat..."
Before she could finish her sentence, a hand clamped over her mouth.
Gu Chengyin covered her mouth, squeezing out a few words through gritted teeth:
"Shut your mouth!"
His voice carried obvious anger, as well as deep helplessness.
How long had it been since he just spoke?
Didn't he just make them admit their mistakes?
Didn't they just agree on three basic rules?
How much time had passed?
Not even half a cup of tea!
And these two women were at it again!
Furthermore, it was escalating, becoming more and more outrageous!
Meowing? Barking?
If he let them keep messing around, who knew what shocking things they would say next!
Lin Qingyan was just about to say she could do it too, but seeing Gu Chengyin's expression, she immediately shut her mouth.
She even drifted her gaze elsewhere, looking at the moonlight outside the window, as if the woman who had been arguing for half the day wasn't her at all.
The blush on her face hadn't faded yet, but her expression had returned to its usual cold and detached look, as if nothing had happened.
Gu Chengyin looked at Lin Qingyan playing dumb, feeling both angry and amused.
He released his hand covering Shangguan Yunying's mouth, looked at Lin Qingyan, and spoke with extreme helplessness:
"Auntie, you are a senior after all, why are you competing with Yunying? She is provoking you on purpose."
Lin Qingyan tilted her head, her gaze still resting outside the window, acting as if she hadn't heard him.
But just when Gu Chengyin thought she wouldn't respond.
Lin Qingyan suddenly muttered softly:
"When you bullied me, didn't you also make me bark like a dog."
Her voice was very quiet, as quiet as a buzzing mosquito.
But because they were so close, both Gu Chengyin and Shangguan Yunying heard it loud and clear.
Gu Chengyin's mouth twitched.
Slander.
This was pure slander.
By heaven and earth, he had never done such a thing.
Of course, he wasn't saying he hadn't bullied her.
But he had never made Lin Qingyan bark like a dog.
At most, he made her call him Master.
But he didn't even ask for that, it was her inner demon who called him that on her own.
Besides, could he be blamed for that?
Who could refuse being treated like that by Lin Qingyan?
This was the terrifying aspect of a pure-hearted succubus.
Being able to restrain himself as well as he did was already extraordinary.
Gu Chengyin decided not to take the bait and changed the subject:
"Alright, both of you get up first."
He reached out, wanting to help them up.
But before he could touch them, Shangguan Yunying swatted his hand away.
Her eyes were sparkling, and her face was written with excitement:
"Wow, Master, do you and Lord Jingzhe play this wildly every day?"
She looked at Lin Qingyan, then at Gu Chengyin, the light of gossip flashing in her eyes:
"If Her Highness finds out about this..."
Before she could finish, Gu Chengyin glared her into silence.
"Shut up!"
Shangguan Yunying stuck out her tongue and obediently shut her mouth.
But the excitement in her eyes didn't diminish in the slightest.
Her original image as the gentle and capable chief female official was completely gone.
All that was left was a little imp full of wicked ideas.
Looking at Shangguan Yunying's demeanor, Gu Chengyin suddenly felt a bit of regret.
He shouldn't have been soft-hearted just now, he shouldn't have told them to get up.
He should have let them stay on their knees, kneeling until dawn, kneeling until they sobered up, kneeling until they never dared to fool around again.
But it was too late now.
These two women were more troublesome than the other, each better at causing a scene.
If he kept arguing with them, tonight would never end.
Gu Chengyin rubbed his temples, sighing softly:
"If you two keep messing around, I'll punish you by making you kneel all night."
Lin Qingyan raised her eyelids, glanced at him, and lowered them again without saying a word.
But her eyes clearly said: Could you bear to do that?
Shangguan Yunying was much more direct. She smiled playfully and said:
"I don't really mind, but Master~"
"You wouldn't want Her Highness to find out about this, right?"
Gu Chengyin: "......"
He actually wasn't afraid of Luo Zhao finding out. After all, given the current situation, Luo Zhao was still under hypnosis.
But Shangguan Yunying's words were obviously meant for Lin Qingyan to hear.
Ultimately, Gu Chengyin decided to end all this nonsense, commanding:
"You two, go back to your own rooms and stay there!"
"I don't want to see you again until we depart tomorrow morning!"
Shangguan Yunying blinked, confirming that Gu Chengyin wasn't joking.
Only then did she rise from the ground, not forgetting to lend Lin Qingyan a hand.
After all, no matter how much they fooled around, status and identity were still there, and the proper respect had to be maintained.
Lin Qingyan didn't refuse either, letting Shangguan Yunying help her up.
Seeing this, Gu Chengyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how much they messed around, they still knew their limits and wouldn't cross the line.
Shangguan Yunying looked at Gu Chengyin and asked: "Then... I'll head back to my room now?"
Gu Chengyin nodded. He was just about to speak when there was a flash before him, and Shangguan Yunying suddenly appeared right in front of him.
Then she leaned in, planted a light kiss on his lips, and backed away with a beaming smile.
As if she knew exactly what would happen next.
She waved her hand while running outside: "See you tomorrow, Lord Jingzhe!"
Her speed was so fast it completely exceeded the level of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
In the blink of an eye, her charming figure had already vanished.
An ominous premonition immediately surfaced in Gu Chengyin's heart. He slowly turned his head to look.
Sure enough, Lin Qingyan was staring at him unblinkingly.
No.
She was staring at his lips.
A faint red light was beginning to shimmer in her eyes again.
Gu Chengyin tried to think of an excuse to defend himself, but in the next breath, Lin Qingyan instantly appeared right in front of him.
Staring intently at the spot where Shangguan Yunying had just kissed, she spoke in an icy tone that left no room for argument:
"I'm releasing my inner demon!"
"Immediately!"
"Right now!"

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
