If it weren't for the fact that there are so many foolish women in this world, there wouldn't be so many heartless men.

It's just that the biggest difference between men and women is that perhaps, after losing everything, a man might reflect, while a woman might either become despondent, self-destruct, or choose to continue loving deeply, making mistake after mistake.

For the first time, Zhou Yan altered his decision in response to Mo Yuyao's dedication.

Often, when Zhou Yan made a decision, it was as if the path ahead was set, without lingering for the scenery around.

But sometimes the scenery follows on its own, without affecting the path ahead, thus adding a beautiful and refreshing landscape to the journey.

Zhou Yan stood for a long time, savoring the tranquility and atmosphere in this simple but elegant cave dwelling.

The cave was still filled with Mo Yuyao's unique light fragrance, intoxicatingly pleasant.

Zhou Yan knew Mo Yuyao's heart was a whirlwind of emotions, chaotic yet pounding with sweetness and loss, yet he teasingly said, "Little girl, make sure to cultivate well in the future and protect yourself. Otherwise, if the bad brother doesn't see the cute invincible beauty Yaoyao, the bad brother might do bad things and rage like at the Sword Emperor Sect."

"Hmph, rest assured, big bad, invincible beauty Yaoyao will grow up to be as big as the two seniors!"

Mo Yuyao's shy words were feigned calmness.

As she spoke, she couldn't help but glance at her own modest curves, sighing worriedly.

Even though these gentle curves weren't small already, being of a modest size, compared to the ample figures of the two seniors, she felt a bit inadequate.

That's why she gave the bold statement about 'growing up,' but if it were that easy, it wouldn't be one of those deep-seated secrets in her heart.

Mo Yuyao hid on the other side of the cave, too shy to appear beside Zhou Yan.

She feared an emotional breakdown or that she would impulsively ask him to stay.

"Okay, the bad brother will wait for Yaoyao to grow up then."

Zhou Yan laughed, "The bad brother will head back to his cave first, but if you don't mind, how about the bad brother stays the night with you?"

"Bad one, you should leave quickly. I don't want you to stay. If you're going to do bad things, I'm, I'm not ready yet."

Mo Yuyao's flushed face was irresistibly enticing. Her innocence imparted a hint of allure, making her even more adorable and captivating.

Zhou Yan, keeping an eye on her with his sensing power, seeing her like this, didn't linger further. Instead, he laughed heartily and left the cave.

Laughter sometimes is a great way to fill the void of separation because it reminds people of happy moments and builds anticipation for a joyful reunion.

After Zhou Yan left, the entire cave suddenly reverted to its serene quietness.

For a long time, the cave remained silent.

Then, soft sobbing sounds waned through, soon followed by a blushing, tear-slicked adorable girl stepping out.

Her eyes took in the empty, silent cave, her heart wrenching with pain.

They say emotions are what enable a person to grow quickly, but often, as one grows, they become especially sentimental.

For a long time, Mo Yuyao sighed softly, her voice tinged with a sob, "Silly one, silly one, you're such a fool! How could you just leave like that! Just...gone."

"Alas, a fool can't be a bad person, and a bad person certainly isn't a fool. Fools are indeed the cutest people because they become silly, clumsy, and madly devoted, like the adorable little fool in my eyes."

Zhou Yan's voice suddenly sounded in Mo Yuyao's ear.

Mo Yuyao was surprised and delighted; her eyes suddenly sparkled brilliantly. She blushed, looking around, but saw no sign of Zhou Yan.

Yet, when she stopped, right in front of her not more than a foot away, a person abruptly appeared and immediately pulled her into an embrace.

"You, you're truly bad!"

Mo Yuyao exclaimed in her tender voice, her tone filled with deep affection and thick longing.

"I left, but I came back. I couldn't let you go, so I planned to hold you all night until tomorrow."

"Hmm..."

"Why are you so foolish for a bad person like me?"

"Maybe I'm used to being bullied by you; if you don't tease me, I feel life has no meaning."

"You're good with words, little girl."

"I... I was only speaking from my heart, and you're teasing me again."

"Alright then..."

"Bad person."

"Hmm?"

"Can you ease up your arms a little, I'm a bit scared."

"..."

"It's pinching..."

"..."

"Bad person, my legs are weak, can you massage them for me?"

"..."

"Bad guy, I'm so hot, can I take off a piece of clothing?"

"Little girl, aren't you done yet? Come on, take it off, I'll massage your legs for you. You're just like a naughty child who causes trouble without a reason!"

Zhou Yan was angry, he was actually teased by the little girl.

But why did he feel so touched in his heart, a bit, like crying.

"Alas, could it be that I'm becoming less of a man? I'm actually conquered by a naive and cute girl."

Zhou Yan sighed in his heart.

"Hmph, come on then, I'm not afraid of you, bad guy. Today, I'll definitely defeat you!"

"You're too young!"

"How can you say I'm young if you haven't even, haven't tried!"

The girl pouted, blushing, saying surprisingly bold words under the cover of darkness.

A girl who doesn't know how to act coy or understand romance, yet if she can speak words of affection, the impact is undoubtedly powerful.

Zhou Yan almost wanted to be a beast once, but considering that once it happened, it would be unstoppable, a day's time would be completely insufficient.

Moreover, Mo Yuyao didn't have such a strong constitution to endure it. If not careful, if something happened the next day, it could become another Sun Chengfeng, so Zhou Yan just playfully bantered with Mo Yuyao, taking some advantage of her.

This playful teasing was naturally blissful, but often happy times pass quickly.

The sky was still at dawn.

In the end, Zhou Yan was ridden by Mo Yuyao, but they didn't engage in that kind of intimate skin-to-skin contact.

Mo Yuyao lay quietly on Zhou Yan's chest, while Zhou Yan lay on the ground, holding Mo Yuyao gently and speaking softly.

"Bad guy, can I visit you at Wenhua Palace usually?"

"Yaoyao, if you want to go to Wenhua Palace, I will teach you a Tao, once you learn it, you'll definitely have the qualification to enter."

Zhou Yan thought for a moment, vaguely realizing Mo Yuyao's 'charm' was indeed very astonishing, like an innate talent. If it could be developed, her future would be limitless.

Mo Yuyao was the first person to change Zhou Yan's decision.

Reflecting on it now, Zhou Yan found it incredible. After all, his temperament was not one that could be easily changed, hence Zhou Yan made this decision.

And spending a night together also strengthened Zhou Yan's intention to help Mo Yuyao become stronger.

"Aah—what kind of Tao is that, bad guy?"

"The 'Ruoshui Scripture', the 'Ruoshui Scripture' I once comprehended, along with the accompanying realized 'Nirvana Scripture'."

Zhou Yan thought for a moment and said.

The 'Nirvana Scripture' is an auxiliary scripture with near-resurrection effects. The 'Ruoshui Scripture' is an ancient scripture Zhou Yan formed by combining the Soul Extinguishing Sword Intent, Sorrow-breaking Sword Intent, Lonely Sword Intent, Worry-free Sword Intent, Life and Death Sword Intent, Gloomy Sword Intent, and various auras, which is an excellent cultivation method for innate divine abilities of unmatched charm.

So for a girl with strong charm like Mo Yuyao to cultivate this scripture, it would definitely unlock her potential.

Back then, Zhou Yan thought it was no simple matter for Mo Yuyao to be chosen by Feng Yunyan based on her own strength, and now it seemed this was just the tip of the iceberg.

Perhaps, Feng Yunyan had long seen her hidden innate ability.

As for the more profound 'Xingyi Ancient Scripture' than the 'Nirvana Scripture', it wasn't that Zhou Yan wouldn't teach it to Mo Yuyao, but the 'Xingyi Ancient Scripture' contained the Supreme Dao of Xingyi, something Mo Yuyao couldn't comprehend.

"That must be very important, you better not teach it to me. If I'm captured by the Outer Heaven Demon and my memory is extracted, it would be disastrous, causing harm to everyone."

Mo Yuyao suddenly refused.

These words made Zhou Yan's heart tremble fiercely as if some terrifying unknown danger was about to happen.

But it was a momentary feeling, like a flash of lightning.

Then Zhou Yan immediately deduced, but could not deduce anything, as if the previous scene was a spontaneous intuition.

"No, it won't be! I will guard you, you won't be in danger. Also, if your strength isn't enough, don't go to such dangerous places."

Zhou Yan thought, immediately sat up, and while holding Mo Yuyao in his arms, searched inside his Qiankun Ring for a moment and found a set of Honorable Artifact Combat Armor of Xuanling Venerable level from the Sword Emperor Sect. After refining it with Purple Flame, extracting Mo Yuyao's bloodline for ritualistic refinement, he transformed it into a pure white gauze skirt, personally dressing Mo Yuyao.

"This is Honorable Artifact Combat Armor, it will guard you well. Additionally, I will engrave the ancient scriptures into a Soul Crystal, so you can watch it often, as if I'm beside you, always teaching you the Tao."

"Mm-hmm... I'm not talking nonsense anymore, don't worry."

Mo Yuyao watched Zhou Yan busy himself quietly, enjoying the rare tranquility.

Whatever Zhou Yan did for her, she no longer refused, behaving like a gentle and considerate little wife.

She still possessed her unique naive and cute charm, yet she added a touch of gentle, thoughtful care.

After Zhou Yan busily finished everything, making sure Mo Yuyao was well-guarded, she also tidied Zhou Yan's clothes, then snuggled beside him, quietly accompanying Zhou Yan to leave the cave together.

On Gui Die Mountain, upon seeing Zhou Yan and Mo Yuyao come out together, Feng Yunyan merely nodded gently, without any reproach or displeasure, rather her gaze held a sense of gratification.

Especially when realizing Mo Yuyao was still pure and untouched, Feng Yunyan felt even more relieved.
