Upon hearing Master Binghuo's words, Ji Haoyuan's heart couldn't help but tremble.
All along, the relationship between the two had always maintained a certain tacit understanding.
Neither of them had easily pierced through that veil.
He had thought that this state between them might persist for a long time.
But unexpectedly, today...
Master Binghuo had revealed their relationship before he could.
If this were in the past, it would have been impossible.
It didn't align with her usually aloof nature.
But Ji Haoyuan knew that Master Binghuo's actions this time were likely related to her previous encounter with the Heart Demon Tribulation.
As the saying goes, a straightforward mind is the Dao's domain.
For cultivators like them, if they don't face their true heart, so be it. Once they truly understand their true heart, they will not have those so-called girlish reservations.
This was clear from the gaze Master Binghuo now directed at him.
Ji Haoyuan had a very clear premonition that if he missed the feelings she expressed this time, their relationship might never return to how it was.
Therefore.
This time, he wouldn't hesitate at all.
Then he stared directly into Master Binghuo's beautiful eyes and said with a smile:
"Senior Sister's intention is my heart's desire.
In the future, I hope Senior Sister will take good care of me."
As he said this, Ji Haoyuan stepped forward and gently embraced Master Binghuo.
Master Binghuo's delicate body suddenly stiffened, but she quickly relaxed.
Ji Haoyuan didn't rush things.
A few moments later, he released Master Binghuo and smiled at her, saying:
"Senior Sister, today you've just broken through in cultivation. Although this place can channel fourth-grade Spirit Vein Spiritual Qi into your Spirit Peak, it's still somewhat lacking. Why not come with me to Nanhua Peak to consolidate your realm and cultivation?"
Given the current relationship between them, Master Binghuo didn't refuse Ji Haoyuan's suggestion.
She smiled and nodded.
"Very well, I shall visit your Spirit Peak to see how it differs from my Miaoyu Peak."
"Haha, you are most welcome.
Senior Sister, please!"
Ji Haoyuan gestured invitingly with a smile.
Master Binghuo glanced at him obliquely, not speaking, but there was always a faint smile on her lips.
Soon, the two arrived together at Nanhua Peak.
Miao Zixi, who had arrived at Nanhua Peak before Ji Haoyuan, immediately stepped forward and respectfully greeted them:
"Zixi greets the Elder and Master Binghuo."
"Hmm."
Ji Haoyuan nodded slightly, then smiled and pointed to Master Binghuo beside him, saying:
"Zixi, from today, my Senior Sister is also the mistress of Nanhua Peak, do you understand?"
Miao Zixi, being a highly perceptive person, immediately understood the nature of their relationship.
Without delay, she turned towards Master Binghuo and greeted her with even greater respect:
"Zixi greets the mistress!"
Although Master Binghuo was surprised by the title of 'mistress', she didn't deny it.
She smiled, reached out to support Miao Zixi, and nodded at her:
"Zixi, there's no need for such formalities in the future.
I've heard from my Junior Brother that many affairs on Nanhua Peak are managed by you.
If convenient for you, Zixi, could you also help with some matters on Miaoyu Peak?
Would that be convenient for you, Zixi?"
Master Binghuo's words immediately eased Miao Zixi's heart.
Having a mistress on Nanhua Peak, Miao Zixi had thought that many things might change.
Including her position as the main steward, which might be replaced.
But after hearing Master Binghuo's words, Miao Zixi understood that the things she feared probably wouldn't happen.
She respectfully replied: "If the mistress allows me to assist in managing the affairs on Miaoyu Peak, it would be my honor. Why would there be any inconvenience?
Rest assured, Mistress, Zixi will not let you down."
"Good!"
Master Binghuo nodded with a smile.
She then flipped her hand, revealing a third-grade mid-level Defensive Magical Treasure, and handed it to Miao Zixi.
"Zixi, this is something I used many years ago as protection, consider it a gift between us."
Looking at the Magical Treasure Master Binghuo handed over, Miao Zixi couldn't help but feel slightly excited.
She understood the significance behind Master Binghuo giving this treasure.
She immediately expressed her gratitude.
Sometime later.
Under Ji Haoyuan's personal arrangement, Master Binghuo entered a cave dwelling to consolidate her current realm and cultivation.
Months later.
A message from True Monarch Yanfa landed in Ji Haoyuan's hands.
After reading it, without hesitation, he headed towards the Sect Leader's Hall.
However, before leaving, he left a fourth-grade mid-level puppet on Nanhua Peak.
Firstly to protect Master Binghuo, and secondly to enhance the foundation of Nanhua Peak.
At the Sect Leader's Hall.
True Monarch Xuanyuan, True Monarch Fuguang, and True Monarch Baihua had already gathered there.
They warmly greeted Ji Haoyuan as he arrived.
They didn't forget to congratulate him on becoming a Dao couple with Master Binghuo.
Ji Haoyuan didn't pretend to be modest, and he replied to True Monarch Xuanyuan and the others with smiles.
Such matters, unless intentionally concealed, would usually be known to many.
As they were chatting, a figure suddenly appeared before them.
It was Sect Leader True Monarch Yanfa.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Sect Leader!"
Immediately, Ji Haoyuan and the others saluted True Monarch Yanfa.
True Monarch Yanfa nodded with a smile and directed his gaze at Ji Haoyuan.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Nanhua," he said with a smile.
It was evident that as the Sect Leader of the Demonstration Sect, despite being in seclusion, he was quite aware of things happening within the sect.
After the pleasantries, True Monarch Yanfa's expression gradually turned serious.
He looked at those present and spoke in a solemn tone:
"Everyone, the reason I called you here today is because there are several significant matters that need to be discussed with you.
Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan and the others became serious.
They knew that if the matter weren't important, True Monarch Yanfa wouldn't address them in such a way.
True Monarch Yanfa continued: "The first matter concerns the Evil Cultivator Blood Demon."
