Dissatisfied with the coldness of Mu Chen towards him, Gu Yunjue then cupped his Master's face in between his hands and gave a quick kiss on the lips.

At the moment, Mu Chen froze for the warm and soft sense of touch on the lips, and yet he just sighed lightly and didn't have the heart to reproach Gu Yunjue when seeing the admiration in his eyes. Then, Mu Chen touched his disciple's head and said gently: "Such a behavior is only appropriate between the most intimate. Don't do that again."

"You are the most intimate person for me, Master." The little one didn't understand what he said at all. Instead, Gu Yunjue looked up with the clear eyes staring at his Master. As a result, Mu Chen's temper completely vanished when looking at Gu Yunjue's sweet smile.

After helping Gu Yunjue adjust his hairpin to the right position, Mu Chen exhorted him: "Go then. I'll wait here for you."

When out of Yanyang Palace, Gu Yunjue licked the corners of his mouth where there likely remained the warmth of the quick kiss which was so sweet that he couldn't stop. Suddenly, an idea occurred to Gu Yunjue, who stretched out his hand to a direction, saying to Jing Ming: "Let's go there."

"Huh?" Jing Ming wondered, "That is the direction to Hanyang Palace!"

"I know. Let's go there and have a look at what Xiao Liu (Lit. Little Six) has been doing recently." What Gu Yunjue suggested stirred up Jing Ming's desire to play. Jing Ming hadn't ever played together with Xiao Liu since he closed up for training a month ago. Besides, the friendship between Jing Ming and Xiao Liu became much deeper again after Jing Ming knew that Xiao Liu was not the human, just like him.

As a result, Jing Ming who always had no definite view of his own was conquered by his desire to play after Gu Yunjue's simple coax, carried Gu Yunjue on his back and headed straight to Hanyang Palace, leaving the thought of choosing books at Book Collection Pavilion behind.

Since Mu Chen knew who he really was, Chu Qianshuang (Xiao Liu) had been well-behaved for a few days indeed. Mu Chen, his grand master, found out this secret, then gave him elixirs to help him suppress the demonic air wandering in his body, however, if it were someone else, they would no doubt make a contract with him and force him to be their spiritual pet. As a spiritual pet, he would be injured following his master's getting injured, and die soon after his master's death. And most cultivators treated their spiritual pets with no genuineness and used them just as animals. Chu Qianshuang didn't really want to get himself in that cage and loose freedom.

Moreover, Liu Hanzhi ever said to Chu Qianshuang that if he incurred troubles for Hanyang Palace, he would be chopped and roasted so that nutrition provided by Liu Hanzhi for Chu Qianshuang in the past years wouldn't be wasted.

Liu Hanzhi, his Master, looked so savage and cruel once he put on his furious mask! In contrast, Mu Chen, who also wore a cold face all the time, was such a kind angel when he presented Chu Qianshuang all kinds of pills!

Now with Jing Ming and Gu Yunjue joining him to play, Chu Qianshuang started to be restless again after being secluded for a few days. Therefore, the two decided to take Gu Yunjue to Book Collection Pavilion after they had enough fun and on their way, they could show Gu Yunjue around Lofty Cloud Sect to help him get more familiar with the environment. After all, Mu Chen wouldn't know it. Such a good plan they'd made! Perfect!

With a wide smile on the face, Gu Yunjue followed them and thought in his heart, 'What will Master's expression be when he learns that I've disobeyed his order? That beautiful face, which always looks indifferent, might have a faint pink, where attractive almond eyes are inlayed and some anger could be seen in his clear eyes.' Thinking of that look, Gu Yunjue felt greatly delighted.
