The following morning, a gentle drizzle fell.

The lovestruck little demoness awoke from her dreams but lingered in bed, unwilling to get up. Her slender and graceful legs tightly held the blanket, her mind filled with images of the previous night spent with someone. As the images deepened, ripples of emotion stirred within her calm heart.

"Oh my—"

"I'm so embarrassed… I was so bold last night…"

The little demoness buried her head deep in the covers, her body squirming uncontrollably. Intense shame swept over her, erasing her usual aloofness, leaving behind a vulnerable, girlish demeanor.

"Phew…"

Xuan Yin pushed aside her blanket, breathing heavily. Her face flushed, she stared at the canopy with a slightly complex expression. If this continued… her springtime desires might overcome her. His kiss from last night… was a close call, and if he became more aggressive… she might… she might even strip off his clothes.

"Sigh… Bad husband…"

With a sigh, Xuan Yin reluctantly accepted her current state. She had to admit… she had fallen for him. No, she had thoroughly fallen in love with him. Despite him being sly, naughty, and shameless, she couldn't help but think of him, finding ways to be with him, even considering pulling him into her bed.

Slowly sitting up on the bed, the little demoness, wearing her bellyband and underpants, put on the nightgown she had taken off the previous night. She went to the window and gently pushed it open. Outside, a fine drizzle fell, and a gust of cold wind blew in, rousing her somewhat dazed mind.

"Why is it raining again…"

Xuan Yin tightened her nightgown around her body, then turned her head to look at Lu Xun's room. Just then, the young man who occupied her thoughts emerged from his room.

"Cough cough!"

Seeing that Lu Xun hadn't noticed her, Xuan Yin gave a couple of soft coughs.

A moment later, Lu Xun eagerly trotted over to the window of her room, observing the disheveled and slightly lazy little demoness before him. Her entire being exuded a captivating aura, especially with her gown slightly open on both sides, revealing a playful blue bellyband.

"Wife… wouldn't you invite your husband in for a visit?" Lu Xun asked with a cheerful smile.

"During broad daylight, I dare not," Xuan Yin replied, giving an exasperated glance to her sly husband. She leisurely inquired, "Did you sleep well last night? Did you dream of me?"

"Oh, I dreamt of you."

"Dreamt that you gave birth to two little babies, a boy and a girl, like a dragon and phoenix pair. The boy is as handsome as me, and the girl is as beautiful as you." Lu Xun babbled on, while sneakily extending his hand and, when the little demoness wasn't paying attention, gently clasped her tender, fair hand in his.

"Who…"

"Who said I wanted to have babies with you."

A rosy hue tinged Xuan Yin's charming face as she shot him an indignant glance. She muttered softly, "I'm a demon… and you're a human. Our union is already defying convention. If… if I were to have your child, it would completely violate the laws of nature. Tell me… would our child be a demon or a human?"

"Of course, a human."

"Do you remember the story I told you about Xu Xian?" Lu Xun answered solemnly, "His wife was a beautiful white snake, and that white snake gave birth to their son. This son was a celestial star in the heavens, known as the Star of Literature, who was exceptionally clever from a young age. He grew up to be exceptionally handsome and eventually became a top scholar, achieving great success."

"…"

"Pure fabrication."

"Just hearing it makes it sound fake," Xuan Yin rolled her eyes and murmured, "I'm not as naive as the little fox. You can't deceive me so easily."

Lu Xun chuckled foolishly and gently stroked the back of her hand. He whispered, "Wife… about having children or not, let's discuss that later. But there's something your husband doesn't quite understand. Last night, while lying in bed, I pondered the sword technique you taught me and found several flaws in it."

"All sword techniques in the world have flaws, just like any other techniques," Xuan Yin explained, "The key to victory lies in concealing weaknesses within skillfulness. The sword technique I taught you appears powerful, with smooth transitions between moves. However, if you rely too much on technique and the opponent disrupts your rhythm, you become vulnerable to a fatal strike."

"Oh…"

"Listening to one piece of advice from you is equivalent to studying for ten years!" Lu Xun cheerfully remarked, "So, does my wife have a solution?"

Xuan Yin shook her head, answering with frustration, "This sword technique is built upon skillfulness. If it strays from the application of skill, it loses its essence. I… I'm powerless. Even my master attempted to improve it, but… ultimately also gave up."

Lu Xun wasn't disappointed. Improving the sword technique was indeed very challenging, and it was normal not to achieve it. He pursed his lips and sighed, "I really want to learn that move from your master, the one that can draw people into the sword intent."

"Your current cultivation and realm are still insufficient. When you reach the Innate realm, you'll be able to learn that move from my master. She will definitely teach you…"

"Ah…"

Suddenly, a sweet exclamation escaped from mouth of the little demoness. Blushing with embarrassment, she glared at him and scolded, "You… you… still teasing? Do you believe I'll chop you up?"

"Hehehe…"

"You, leaning against the window, sticking out your butt like that, it's really… really too charming," Lu Xun teasingly said, "And you know very well that I'm the type who's attracted to such things, yet you dare to tempt me like this."

"You…"

"You still have an argument?" The little demoness withdrew her hand and glared at him with wide eyes, filled with anger. She grumbled, "You rotten man… I'm ignoring you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she slammed the window shut.

After a while, she slowly opened a crack in the window, "Go…"

"Go wait for me in the hall."

Xuan Yin wore a pink and white dress, her lustrous black hair adorned with her favorite hairpin. She stepped out of her room, but just as she took a couple of steps, she suddenly heard the voice of the little fox.

"Sister… sister… come here for a moment."

Hearing Xuan Shi's call, the little demoness turned her head and saw the little fox standing at the doorway of her room, poking half of her head out. The cute and tender little face was flushed with a rosy hue.

Xuan Yin walked over with an umbrella and stood in front of her, curiously asking, "What's going on?"

"Well…"

"Sister, do you have clean bedding?" The little fox blushed, her head hanging low as she asked in a timid voice.

"Clean bedding?"

Xuan Yin was slightly taken aback, then thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure if there's any. By the way, why do you need clean bedding?"

"I…"

"I…"

The little fox tightly bit her lip, her eyes filled with embarrassment and a lost expression.

Seeing Xuan Shi's shy demeanor, Xuan Yin widened her eyes in disbelief and asked: "You… you didn't wet the bed, did you?"
