Xuan Yin knew her master was just making things up, as she had no idea what had actually happened earlier. The mention of "embracing" was just a random remark. But unexpectedly, her master's words hit the mark, though not in the literal sense of embracing, but in the way he held her waist and taught her how to write better.

At the same time, Immortal Miao Feng's casual remark had an unintended effect. Seeing Xuan Yin's slightly stunned and flustered expression, she couldn't help but feel a bit surprised. Could it be… Could it be they really were embracing while studying? They've only just started on the first day, and who knows what they'll be up to in a few days? They might even stop wearing clothes altogether.

"Master."

"Don't make wild guesses. How is it possible for us to embrace while studying? I… I can't stand him at all, let alone embrace him." Xuan Yin bit her red lips, frustratedly complaining, "I'm genuinely studying here. Today, I learned a poem."

"You learned a poem?"

"Well… The verses are too long, and I forgot them." Xuan Yin's charming face blushed with a faint red hue as she murmured softly, "As you know, I'm quite clumsy in this area."

Forgot?

I'm afraid she never learned it in the first place! Alone together in a room, how can there be any concentration on studying?

Immortal Miao Feng smiled slightly and said, "Alright, alright, no need to explain to me. Your master understands. Also, there's another thing. Although you two are not officially married, you are essentially a loving couple. After some time, your master will have Lu Xun write a marriage proposal for you, and you can marry him openly, going through the proper marriage procedures. What do you think?"

"This…"

"Master, there's no need for such a fuss," Xuan Yin replied softly, "Things are fine as they are."

Immortal Miao Feng rolled her eyes at her and said irritably, "You girl, why are you so clueless? Your fiancé may appear distinguished and gentlemanly, but he has quite a flirty side. He's fated to encounter romantic entanglements. Without a formal engagement, who knows where his thoughts might wander? Moreover…"

She paused mid-sentence.

"Moreover, what?" Xuan Yin looked at her master, perplexed and curious.

Moreover…

A faint turmoil flashed in Immortal Miao Feng's expression, silently thinking, Moreover… your fiancé even desires me!

"It's nothing." She waved it off.

"In short, that's the idea," Immortal Miao Feng said gently, "Besides, a Pure Yang body has a strong allure for women, especially for those who practice cultivation. Your master once read in a book that women who cultivate with a man possessing a Pure Yang body, even without any cultivation, can benefit from increased lifespan every year, not to mention those women who are already cultivators."

"So…"

"You better take advantage of his body sooner rather than later to avoid unnecessary complications. If anything happens, your master will keep an eye on him. With my cultivation level, even if he hides at the ends of the earth, I can track him down."

Facing her dominant and overbearing master, Xuan Yin had no choice but to reluctantly agree. However, compared to the first time she heard about cultivating with him, now Xuan Yin wasn't as resistant deep down; it was more of a go-with-the-flow attitude and thought.

"Master?"

"You mentioned that the Pure Yang body has a strong allure for women. Will it affect you too?" Xuan Yin curiously asked.

Upon hearing Xuan Yin's question, Immortal Miao Feng couldn't help but pause. She smiled and said nonchalantly, "Your master won't be affected, don't forget that I have the suppression of the Calamity Fruit. I won't have any desire. As for Xuan Shi… I don't think so. After all, her background and Lu Xun are not destined to be together."

While speaking, Immortal Miao Feng thought of that box of rouge, and a slight panic accompanied by a sense of shame appeared on her face.

That damned little Daoist, why did he give me a box of rouge out of the blue? It makes me feel a bit guilty towards Xuan Yin. Why didn't I just throw it away? Instead, I kept it hidden.

With one large and one small snake demon, it seemed that both of them had something on their minds and didn't speak to each other.

"Don't just stand there."

"Sit beside your master and talk about your fiancé," Immortal Miao Feng said.

Xuan Yin wanted to return to her own chamber, but since her master had already spoken, she could only sit silently beside her. Just as she sat down, her master's voice echoed in her ears.

"Is Lu Xun good to you?" Immortal Miao Feng asked.

"He… He's okay," Xuan Yin recalled her experiences with him, especially those embarrassing moments, and a faint blush appeared on her face as she murmured, "Average, I guess."

"Has he made any improper moves on you?" Immortal Miao Feng continued to ask.

"He wouldn't dare."

"I'd chop off his hands directly!" Xuan Yin bit her lips, a hint of shallow anger visible on her face as she replied with a touch of annoyance.

Seeing her indignant appearance, Immortal Miao Feng had already deduced the answer. It seems that the damned little Daoist has started craving her body, and not only that, it seems he also wants to crave my body. Thinking of this, a barely perceptible blush climbed upon her mature and charming countenance.

"Master."

"I'm a bit tired. I'll rest in my room first," Xuan Yin stood up and said softly.

"Alright."

"Studying is indeed harder for you than cultivating. Rest early," Immortal Miao Feng nodded gently, speaking tenderly.

When Xuan Yin left the hall and arrived at the back courtyard, she instinctively glanced at the small house nearby. The scenes from earlier replayed in her mind—the solid and sturdy chest of Lu Xun pressed against her back, his hand gently holding hers, his low and gentle words echoing in her ears, and the warm breath from his lips.

Lu Xun! If you dare to do that again tomorrow, I'll… I'll chop you up! I'll definitely chop you up!

Xuan Yin stomped her foot in frustration and walked angrily to her chamber.

The next morning, at the break of dawn, Lu Xun had already stepped out of his room, breathing in the fresh air and stretching lazily.

Another beautiful day begins! Today, I'll live my life to the fullest!

Wearing new clothes he bought from Quanzhou City, Lu Xun transformed from a handsome little Daoist into an elegant and refined gentleman, exuding the air of a cultured scholar while retaining a hint of unrestrained charm.

As he arrived in the hall, he heard the sound of sword practice coming from the courtyard. He walked over and found that the big snake demoness was practicing her swordplay.

However, this scene…
