The more Jiang Xiaobai listened to Ao Yan’s words, the more he felt that something wasn’t right.

Why did it sound like she was leaving a last will and testament?

Sensing something wrong, Jiang Xiaobai cautiously lifted his head.

What he saw was Ao Yan’s face, calm and unfazed, with an equally serene gaze.

“Did something happen to you?”

Jiang Xiaobai carefully asked.

“Whatever it is, it’s not something you can help with by yourself.”

Ao Yan slowly responded, “I know your intentions, but you should go. Stay away from the disputes in Dragon Valley. Perhaps you can even make a name for yourself.”

A warmth filled Jiang Xiaobai’s heart. He knew that Ao Yan was worried about him, caring for him.

Having been an orphan in both of his lives, he had never experienced such care from another.

At this moment, Ao Yan’s concern moved him deeply.

He internally made a determination to confront the life-and-death crisis at hand.

“What, you don’t want to leave?” Ao Yan raised her eyebrows at Jiang Xiaobai’s silent reaction.

“Not at all, it’s just that I’m somewhat happy you actually care about me.” Jiang Xiaobai blurted out unconsciously.

Immediately after speaking, he realized his mistake.

Ao Yan’s expression turned teasing.

“You really have a rich imagination, considering the circumstances.”

Surprisingly, Ao Yan was smiling.

“My apologies, as a man, particularly your man, how could I simply abandon you?” Jiang Xiaobai was quick in his excuse.

“So, you still don’t want to leave? Do you realize that in few days, the Ancient Clan will be here!”

“The Ancient Clan will surely take action against you. If there comes a day when I can’t protect you, won’t you…”

As Ao Yan said this, for whatever reason, she suddenly found herself unable to finish the sentence.

Jiang Xiaobai continued to smile unabashedly, “That’s not it. I just don’t want you to face everything alone.”

“The burdens on your shoulders are too heavy, as a woman. I’m just a worthless life, dying wouldn’t matter much. To have been your husband for a day and to have seen such a vast world is already enough.”

“I was just thinking of doing something more for you…” As his voiced trailed off, Ao Yan was silent and stunned.

She stared blankly at Jiang Xiaobai.

Her mind was trembling.

“You…”

“No need to say it, I will use all my power and might to do the best I can for you. At the very least, I’ll share your burdens…”

Jiang Xiaobai interrupted Ao Yan. His eyes were red, yet his face held a satisfied, happy smile.

He knew that this act of his would have a great impact on Ao Yan.

Oscar surely owes him an award for best actor.

“I’m already very content. It’s a pity though, in the future, I may not get the chance to cook for you.”

For a moment, Ao Yan was filled with mixed feelings.

This was a complex emotion she had never experienced in all her life.

At this moment, her heart was in turmoil.

An inexplicable turmoil.

The room fell into silence. Neither Ao Yan nor Jiang Xiaobai spoke. One was seated cross-legged on the bed, the other lay on the floor.

And thus, they stayed until dawn.

This was the first night since record started that Ao Yan had not cultivated.

Her mind was filled with Jiang Xiaobai’s words.

This made Ao Yan question her feelings towards Jiang Xiaobai.

Opening her eyes and seeing the dawn outside, Ao Yan took a deep breath.

“Forget it, regardless of these, I have to deal with those old fools first!”

A snort in her heart, Ao Yan quickly got up and left the house.

The moment she stepped out, Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes.

His expression was wooden as he stared at the roof beam.

“Strange. I was only acting last night, so why do I feel so unsettled?”

“Could it be that I’ve really fallen in love with this woman? Impossible right?” Jiang Xiaobai was baffled.

Initially, he only wanted to survive so he stuck to Ao Yan like glue. But now, he felt as if a cold woman had gradually invaded his life.

“What am I thinking, now is not the time!”

“I should be thinking about how to stop the Ancient Clan and get more help.” After a long while, Jiang Xiaobai sighed internally, slowly got up, and walked out of the room.

His plan should begin.contemporary romance

Without informing anyone, he took Ao Yan’s token and left Dragon Valley quietly.

This time, he left very discreetly.

Simultaneously, he was constantly on guard against those three fools while on his way.

Before he launched the plan, he gave the Golden Pavilion a heads up to prevent them from misunderstanding during the process.

Fortunately, he didn’t encounter any dangers when he arrived at the first city.

“First, I’ll find the local auction firms and directly sell the Purifying Immortal Pill.

After disguising himself and confirming his identity will not be exposed, Jiang Xiaobai set off.

The power of the commercial firm here was no less than that of the Golden Pavilion. A simple glance was enough to understand their strength, they could definitely afford the Purifying Immortal Pill.

After all, news of the Purifying Immortal Pill was spreading all over the eastern domain of the Tianxuan Continent.

After Jiang Xiaobai stated his intention to auction off the Purifying Immortal Pill, the firm’s owner was immediately alerted.

Obviously, the auction request was accepted and the firm even kindly waived Jiang Xiaobai’s fees.

But he didn’t have the time to bother about this detail.

“Remember, the auction must be held tomorrow. I don’t care whether you spread the news or not, that’s my only request!”

Jiang Xiaobai shouted at the manager.

The manager hurriedly nodded his head like smashing garlic, they couldn’t afford to offend anyone capable enough to auction off a Purifying Immortal

Pill.

After everything was arranged, Jiang Xiaobai quickly departed.

He needed to reach the next city and continue his arrangements.

For a full day, Jiang Xiaobai was frantically on the move, covering all the major cities around Tianyuan City.

He arranged the auction times so that they coincided with the arrival of the

Ancient Clan.

“By my calculations, this should buy at least half a month’s time. If the Ancient Clan is greedy and wants all the Purifying Immortal Pills from every auction, they wouldn’t be able to accomplish it in less than a month.”

Jiang Xiaobai calculated in his mind, “At least, I’ve bought some time for myself. Now, I need to think of more countermeasures.”

“I estimate that there won’t be much opportunity to enhance my own strength during this period.”

Shaking his head, Jiang Xiaobai took one last look at the firm before disappearing into the crowd.

Inside Dragon Valley, Ao Yan was sitting in her courtyard with furrowed brows.

Jiang Xiaobai, that fool, had indeed left Dragon Valley recklessly.

Though compared to the Ancient Clan delaying their arrival by a month, this seemed minor.

The delayed arrival of the Ancient Clan presented her with a great opportunity. “A month’s time is enough for me to break through!”

“Once I succeed, Martial Sea Immortal Venerable will take me as his disciple. I’d like to see what the Ancient Clan can do then!”

Having said that, Ao Yan glanced at her hand. It was the gift that Jiang Xiaobai had bought for her.

Thinking of it, Ao Yan couldn’t help but show a sweet smile.

“It seems that both you and I should be safe.” Ao Yan was talking to herself..
