Chapter 2836

Lie Xuan was not in a hurry. She simply nodded and said, "Thank you for your trouble."

Shen Zhang immediately went out and threw a signal flare.

Yun Xi saw the flare. He swept his divine sense lightly and a smile appeared on his face. "Lie Xuan is here."

Wang Lanxuan also checked with his divine sense, then smiled. "Yes, Lie Xuan is here. Go let him in."

"Okay." Yun Xi knew Wang Lanxuan had been studying the Void these past few days and was just starting to see results. It was indeed not good to distract his focus. So, Yun Xi flashed away.

From the moment Shen Zhang fired the signal flare to Yun Xi’s appearance, it took only half an incense stick’s time. "Lie Xuan."

Lie Xuan was slightly stunned. Although she was female, she remembered that Yun Xi had always called her "Brother Lie." Why was she calling her by her name now? But she didn't know why, hearing her say her name made her heart beat quickly.

"Yun Xi." Lie Xuan called out too.

Yun Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. He remembered Lie Xuan used to call him Wang Zhi. It seemed Lie Xuan knew what to do.

Then Yun Xi handed another signal flare to Shen Zhang. "You can continue to send signal flares if there is something." Then he said to Lie Xuan, "Let's go into the mountains."

"Good." Lie Xuan wanted to be alone with Yun Xi right now. So Yun Xi saying to go into the mountains was best. At least they could be alone on the way.

From Yun Xi’s appearance to leading Lie Xuan away, it didn't take more than a few minutes. Shen Zhang did not feel embarrassed. Because someone like Yun Xi could only be befriended, not offended.

Yun Xi led Lie Xuan into Luojia Mountain. Halfway there, he saw a camellia flower and casually picked one.

Lie Xuan saw Yun Xi pick the camellia. She thought for a moment, coughed lightly, and said, "Yun Xi, I have something to tell you."

"What?" Yun Xi looked at Lie Xuan calmly.

Lie Xuan bit her lip. "Actually, I am a girl. The one who died back then was my twin brother. I disguised myself as a man so the Lie family name wouldn't fall. My real name is Lie Xuan, Wang Xuanxuan."

After hearing this, a smile flashed in Yun Xi’s eyes. Then he said, "And then?"

"I like you." Lie Xuan closed her eyes and said it directly. "I know you might look down on me, but I am a cultivator. I don't want to hide my feelings. It would create a heart demon. I would rather you reject me or look down on me, but I still have to tell you. I like you."

Yun Xi hummed. Then he took out a package and gave it to Lie Xuan. "There is a tree hollow over there. Go change your clothes."

Lie Xuan didn't understand what Yun Xi meant. But looking at the package, she obediently followed without knowing why. She went to the tree hollow nearby, changed clothes, and came out. When she walked in front of Yun Xi, she realized she had changed into women's clothing.

Yun Xi pulled Lie Xuan to sit on a stone nearby. Then he took out a comb. "When I was at home, I combed my mother's hair and my sister's hair. Back then, I was thinking, when can I comb your hair? I didn't expect to have the chance today."

Lie Xuan was stunned again. "You are not angry?"

"Why be angry?" Yun Xi remained calm. "Angry that you are a girl? But as a cultivator, I already knew you were a girl when I passed you the cultivation method. Otherwise, do you think why I gave you a method suitable for you?"

"Aren't you angry that I hid it from you?" Lie Xuan looked dazed again.

"Silly girl. I only feel heartache. How could I be angry? You were just a little girl back then, only a few years old. You came here and carried everything for the Lie family on your own. I only feel heartache for you. Of course, I am also proud of you."

Yun Xi finished combing Lie Xuan's hair and inserted the camellia flower into her bun. "Tying your hair, holding your hand. Xuan'er, are you satisfied with the bun I tied for you?"

Yun Xi took out a mirror and gave it to Lie Xuan.

Lie Xuan had no mind to look at her hair. She turned around and looked at Yun Xi. "You are not angry? You are not rejecting me?"

"Why be angry?" Yun Xi smiled. "Actually, even if you didn't tell me today, I would have told you. I also like you."

Lie Xuan smiled and threw herself into Yun Xi's arms. "You didn't tell me in Zhuque."

"Silly girl. I saw you were so happy being a general, so I naturally supported you. Besides, we are cultivators. We have countless years. I thought that even if we become Dao companions, we should get married together after we ascend. So I had time to wait. Of course, first you had to step onto the path of cultivation. Fortunately, everything that happened was within my plan."

Yun Xi stroked Lie Xuan's black hair. "Now that you have told me, I naturally will not reject you."

Lie Xuan looked up at Yun Xi, then kissed his lips with a smacking sound. "I like you too."

When Lie Xuan made the smacking sound, Yun Xi’s heart moved. Then she found the right position, claimed her reward first, and only then let her go. "This is the correct way to open up 'liking'."

Lie Xuan's face was red as cherry blossoms. "Then how should I address you in the future?"

"Husband, or dear husband, both are fine." Yun Xi rarely acted playful.

"I haven't married you yet." Lie Xuan glared at Yun Xi, then said, "I will just call you Yun Xi." Although others thought calling by courtesy name was more intimate, so few people called her Yun Xi. Lie Xuan felt that since others didn't call her that, it was best for her to call her that.

Yun Xi didn't mind. "Good. Then I will call you Xuan'er in the future."

"You already called me that." Lie Xuan, no, Lie Xuan, naturally did not object.

Yun Xi straightened Lie Xuan. "Alright, let's go. Brother Wang is waiting for us." Then he seemed to remember something. He took out a few rings and put them on Lie Xuan's ring finger. "From now on, you are my fiancée. When we ascend, we will get married."

"Good." Lie Xuan nodded seriously.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you get married now." Two elves appeared, speaking in unison.

"Liang Chen, I finally found you." Meijing threw herself into Liang Chen's arms.

Liang Chen also hugged Meijing. "Meijing, I missed you so much."

"Liang Chen, you can actually come out." Yun Xi asked curiously.

"Originally, if it was only me, I couldn't come out. But now that Meijing and I are reunited, we can naturally come out." Liang Chen said seriously. "Actually, Yun Xi, I think you should find a chance to get married properly. Because after the Origin Realm, you will have problems having children. It is not easy for cultivators to have children. It is best to get married while you are only at the Golden Core stage, and then have a child."

"The Yun family does not need me to carry on the family line. I don't care about having children. As long as Xuan'er is by my side, that is enough." Yun Xi truly didn't care about having children.

Lie Xuan smiled. "I have already started cultivating. I have also calculated for the Lie family ancestors. Basically, they have all successfully reincarnated. So even if I don't have children, it is fine."

"But after marriage, dual cultivation will help with your cultivation." Meijing spoke from the side.
