Gu Yuena seemed to see through Su Yu's thoughts. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, but she didn't press closer. Pushing Su Yu too hard wouldn't be a good thing. Although Gu Yuena was deeply emotional, she wasn't foolish. If she were too controlling, Su Yu might develop resistance, which would only make things worse. After giving Su Yu a deep look, Gu Yuena glanced at the messy stone platform. There were still traces of golden blood on it. She frowned, shattered the stone platform with a slap, and re-formed a new one using earth elements. Su Yu stepped forward just in time to support Gu Yuena, speaking gently, "Nana, take a rest first." Gu Yuena gave Su Yu a sideways glance but didn't push him away. With his support, she walked toward the newly formed stone platform. Su Yu spread a soft blanket over the platform before helping Gu Yuena sit down. "Nana, rest for a bit. I'll keep watch over you," Su Yu said softly. In Su Yu's eyes, Gu Yuena was no different from Meng Hongchen and the others. They were all his woman. Su Yu drew a clear line between his woman and outsiders. Gu Yuena seemed to sense Su Yu's warmth, the kind of affection that came from the heart. It was a feeling she had never experienced before. She glanced at Su Yu and felt that, at this moment, he seemed more real. "Don't try anything while I'm asleep," Gu Yuena warned. "What are you thinking? I'm not that kind of person. Don't you trust me?" Su Yu responded innocently. "It's because I trust you too much that I fell into your trap," Gu Yuena gritted her teeth. Su Yu smiled sheepishly, a little guilty. Gu Yuena glared at him before lying down on her own. At this point, what was done was done. There was no point in being overly cautious around Su Yu anymore. She said it more for the sake of keeping up appearances. As he watched Gu Yuena gradually fall into a peaceful slumber, Su Yu's gaze turned contemplative. What happened today wasn't an accident. From the moment he obtained the 100,000-year whale glue, he had been planning for this day. Choosing to consume it while alone with Gu Yuena—was that a coincidence? Of course not. It was intentional. Something was still missing to bring his relationship with Gu Yuena to the next level. Su Yu had taken the approach of getting on the train first and buying the ticket later. The 100,000-year whale glue was incredibly potent, its yang energy extremely intense. The way Su Yu had appeared—red all over, even steaming—looked as though he were being consumed by yang energy. While whale glue was a tonic, too much of it could cause an extreme reaction. Gu Yuena had agreed largely out of concern for Su Yu's safety. Of course, Su Yu's persistence also played a significant role. While Gu Yuena was momentarily distracted, Su Yu seized the opportunity and didn't let go. Even if she wanted to resist, breaking free would likely harm Su Yu. The memory of nearly killing him during a defensive reaction still lingered in Gu Yuena's mind, casting a shadow over her thoughts. She didn't want to hurt him again, so her struggles were half-hearted. With these two factors combined, Gu Yuena ultimately chose to compromise. After all, she was going to be Su Yu's sooner or later. It was just a matter of time. Moreover, as a soul beast, Gu Yuena didn't view such matters as gravely as humans did. Thus, Su Yu, with careful planning, achieved his goal. But he hadn't expected Gu Yuena to realize he had been fully conscious, leading to an awkward moment earlier. This was a lesson: one shouldn't be too complacent, or one might slip up. Had Su Yu acted better, the whole situation would have gone flawlessly. Still, Su Yu only used such underhanded methods on Gu Yuena. He would never consider doing this to anyone else. Even he admitted it was shameless. "Nana was right—I am despicable," Su Yu thought, mocking himself. Meng Hongchen had been easy to win over, as she was already devoted to him. If he made a move, she would likely be even more eager than him. But he had deliberately focused his efforts on Gu Yuena, who was completely inexperienced in matters of the heart. If that wasn't shameless, what was? Still, Su Yu didn't deny his shamelessness. "Shameless as it may be... it was worth it," Su Yu murmured to himself. Looking at Gu Yuena, memories and emotions surged within him. She truly was like a celestial being descended to earth. A beauty so rare, it was almost otherworldly. But now, no matter how divine, she was his. Su Yu smiled faintly, his gaze at Gu Yuena full of gentleness. ... ... ... "Su Yu, stop zoning out." "Su Yu, pay attention!" "Su Yu, can you not understand something this simple?" In the underground space, Gu Yuena's scolding voice echoed constantly. She reprimanded him with such confidence as if she weren't worried about him retaliating. Sometimes, when she was displeased, she would even smack him on the head. And Su Yu, instead of resisting, would smile in response. This was one of the lingering effects of their previous encounter—Su Yu found it hard to act tough in front of Gu Yuena. "Daydreaming again!" Gu Yuena grabbed his ear and started lecturing him. Her delicate face turned serious, and her tone carried a hint of coldness. Her violet eyes radiated an intimidating aura. Su Yu let out a bitter laugh. He hadn't been distracted at all! Gu Yuena was making something out of nothing. "Nana, if you want to hit me, just say so. Why bother making up a reason?" "I'm not going to stop you anyway," Su Yu said helplessly, starting to question whether his earlier schemes had been worth it. Sure, he had successfully won Gu Yuena over, but now she had become more assertive. In the past, she would never have dared to talk to him like this. Back then, Su Yu was the one bullying Gu Yuena. Now, the tables had turned. If Su Yu dared to resist, Gu Yuena would simply give him an emotionless stare. Whenever their eyes met, Su Yu's guilty conscience made him feel apologetic, leaving him at her mercy. Su Yu couldn't help but worry that, at this rate, his authority as the head of the family might never recover. "You dare talk back?" Gu Yuena's beautiful eyes glared at him as she tightened her grip slightly. Fine. Su Yu sighed in resignation and raised his hands in surrender. "Nana, I'll be leaving in a few days," Su Yu suddenly said as Gu Yuena was reprimanding him. Her jade-like hand froze mid-motion, and she snapped angrily, "You wouldn't dare!" Su Yu chuckled softly and replied, "I'm not joking. I've already been back for almost three months. If I don't leave soon, the shield blocking the Divine Realm will break." Gu Yuena furrowed her brows and withdrew her hand. Her expression calmed as if all her earlier anger had dissipated. "Do you have to go?" Looking at Su Yu, Gu Yuena felt a trace of reluctance. Another month had passed since their previous incident. Over the past month, Su Yu had let her order him around and even bullied him a little. Truth be told, her anger had long since faded. She had grown to enjoy the feeling of being able to command Su Yu. It seemed Su Yu understood this and went along with it, coaxing her in his way. From his gaze, she could sense his genuine affection. The way he looked at her carried the same tenderness he had when looking at Di Minglii, It made her feel incredibly comfortable. Now, with Su Yu suddenly saying he had to leave, she found herself a little unprepared. "Yeah, probably in a few days. I'll spend a bit more time with you before I go," Su Yu said with a smile. "As if I care," Gu Yuena replied with a hint of tsundere stubbornness. Su Yu smiled lightly, took her hand, and gently pulled her into his embrace. "Nana, I know I've wronged you, but I truly care about you now." "I promise, one day, I'll heal your wounds and take you to see all the splendor the world has to offer." Su Yu's tone was solemn, and his expression was exceptionally sincere. Gu Yuena gazed into his eyes, and a soft light of tenderness emerged in her violet irises. Although she had been furious about Su Yu's scheming at first, his behavior over the past month had softened her heart. Even if she acted aloof on the surface, deep down, she had already accepted Su Yu. Their relationship had grown significantly in the past month. Truthfully, Gu Yuena didn't dislike Su Yu. On the contrary, he now held an extremely high position in her heart. After all they had been through, they were now the closest people to each other. Gu Yuena gently caressed Su Yu's cheek and spoke in a soft tone, "Just take care of yourself and stop making empty promises." "You should remember the responsibility you carry. You have a mission to fulfill." "You've already achieved what you wanted. Focus on your cultivation and don't let me down." "I understand, my Beautiful little silver dragon," Su Yu replied with a grin. "Hmph." Gu Yuena feigned annoyance, giving Su Yu a side-eye. But her jade-like hands moved to adjust his collar with great care and gentleness, much like a devoted wife. Su Yu wore a cheerful smile the entire time. Once she finished tidying up his collar, he pulled her into a tight embrace. Gu Yuena didn't resist and allowed herself to be held. In the quiet underground space, the two leaned against each other in peaceful silence. ... Three days later. At the Lake of Life. Di Mingli bit the hem of Su Yu's clothing, her gaze filled with reluctance. Su Yu hadn't been back for long, and now he was leaving again. Di Mingli couldn't accept it. Su Yu gently stroked her golden fur and said softly, "Mingli, let go.

Since Su Yu still had one unused Heaven-Deceiving Card, he felt confident making this promise. But Di Mingli refused to release her grip on his clothing. If Su Yu left, she would be all alone again. She hated that feeling. "Di Mingli, don't be stubborn. Be good." Su Yu's tone grew firmer. Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, Di Mingli finally let go. Her head drooped, her mood visibly low, and she looked pitifully dejected. PS: Hey, I see this book failed to enter top 200. Only one chapter update today.
