Against The Gods
Chapter 121 – Blue Wind Profound Palace

The reason why the same move could succeed with Xia Qingyue, was because Yun Che had worked for several days in a row to open his Profound entrance, exhausting his stamina in the middle of the night until he was very weak. After all, they were a legitimate couple on behalf of. No matter how cruel and pure Xia Qingyue's jade was, she couldn't bear to let Yun Che continue sleeping on the ground … And Yun Che was also clamoring to die rather than letting a woman sleep on the ground, which then resulted in him sharing a bed and pillow with Xia Qingyue … Even though nothing happened at all.

However for Lan Xueruo, it proved that the same move worked even easier.

After all, Lan Xueruo was older than Yun Che at the age of two, and she had always subconsciously treated Yun Che as if she was looking for a younger brother. Moreover, with Lan Xueruo's gentle and gentle character that was completely different from Xia Qingyue's coldness, how could she bear to have Yun Che, who completely disregarded his own safety to save her several times, sleeping on the icy floor …

So, the result is logical.

Lan Xueruo slept on the inside, Yun Che slept outside, and they were divided in the middle with a long blanket rolled up by Lan Xueruo.

"Your body should not pass through this blanket, or any other ... or any other ..." Lan Xueruo had a serious face, but her reminiscent face did not make Yun Che feel any sense of deterrence at all. Instead, it was a pleasant sight for him to see.

"Does Senior Brother still not believe me?" Yun Che chuckled and lay down. He gently muttered to himself: "However ... if Senior Brother secretly comes to my side ... what should I do? Should I run away, or should I pretend not to know about it … "

Lan Xueruo was exasperated for a moment. Acting as if he did not hear her, he lay on his side, facing inward.

The lights went out, and the room went dark. In silence, although Lan Xueruo closed her eyes, she could not sleep for a long time. His heart rate grew uncontrollably faster, almost until he could almost hear the sound of his own heartbeat.

Thinking back on meeting and getting acquainted with Yun Che, she could not deny that she had always been interested and moved by him all along. And tonight he actually slept in the same bed with her. He found that in his heart there was only anxiety and tension, yet there was no trace of fear or rejection. This made him feel a vague sense of danger, yet he was unable to contain or clear up the feeling.

He actually slept with a man in the same bed .. This is what he proposed voluntarily, but it is precisely because of that, whether it makes him feel how difficult the situation is. Because to him, this was a scene that he could never imagine. He began to imagine; if it was the same scene, yet Yun Che had been replaced by someone else, would he also do the same because of his tender heart and compassion …

He thought for a long time as he moved through many people. The conclusion he always gets is .. He definitely won't!

Maybe I trust him too much. After all, he had not even hesitated to use his own life to protect me, and he was so generous and courageous; naturally, he would do nothing to offend me in this situation, kan …

As Lan Xueruo's thoughts churned, she heard Yun Che's voice even breathing from beside her ears. It seems he's fast asleep.

Lan Xueruo's anxiety soon subsided. But for some reason, there was also a trace of an indescribable feeling of emptiness. His heart was almost completely calm and a wave of fatigue swept over him. Not long after, he drowned in his dream.

That night, Lan Xueruo was originally expected to have trouble sleeping through the night. However, he did not think that he would fall asleep so quickly, and could even sleep quietly. In her dream, she had a vague feeling about herself gradually sinking into a warm embrace. This kind of warmth made his heart become very peaceful, very calm; it made him desire to approach her, to embrace this warm feeling. Only until she firmly embraced this warmth did she finally settle down and sink deeper into her dreams. He didn't wake up all night like he did before, nor did he have any more nightmares.

The next day .

When Lan Xueruo woke up, the rays of light that met her eyes were already quite intense. When her vision changed from blurred to clear, her gaze involuntarily looked upwards, and saw the eyes of Yun Che who seemed to be laughing at first glance.

"Senior Brother, morning. ”

Lan Xueruo subconsciously prepared to answer, but when she opened her lips, what actually came out was a worried scream.

His two arms are currently tightly hugging his upper body, and even************ which is chewy pressed against his chest. His long, slender left leg coiled around his waist, as his entire body was pressed towards him without any gaps.

An entire being Lan Xueruo, as if electrocuted, emerged from Yun Che's body. In a panic, she arranged her hair and clothes which were slightly messy. His heart was beating like a shocked deer, and his face was flushed red like a sunset.

“Senior sister, you don't seem to have a sense of security when you sleep. Is there something you are afraid of? "Ask Yun Che while looking into his eyes.

"I ... d. .. don't ..." Lan Xueruo replied somewhat unprepared and confused .. She vaguely remembered the inexplicable warmth in her dream that gave her a sense of peace; he now also fully understood, that this kind of warm feeling came from Yun Che. However, his subconscious wanted this kind of feeling, and voluntarily led him to continue approaching and embracing him.

Yun Che sat down, then suddenly stretched out his hand and held Lan Xueruo's snow-soft right hand in his grasp. Sincerely, she said, “The senior female brother, although I don't know your identity, nor do I know your family background, and moreover don't know what you've been through … But as I said before; as long as I am at Senior Sister's side, I will use all my strength to protect Senior Sister, as long as I am at Senior Sister's side, and would never again allow Senior Sister to receive any damage. ”

With his hands suddenly being held by a man in a dubious manner, while his gentle words were also creeping into his ears, Lan Xueruo who had never experienced this experience suddenly became mute when her mind was completely blank. Only after letting his hand be held for a long time did he finally act as if he had just woken up from the dream world; he hurriedly pulled his hand from his grasp and with a panicked appearance, he quickly pulled it out, jump out of bed.

"You ... You already have a wife …"

Leaving a line that even he himself did not know where it came from, Lan Xueruo quickly ran over. That beautiful figure clearly contained the feeling of hastily escaping.

After Lan Xueruo ran away, Yun Che shook his head and smiled. He then put his hand on his chin, and spoke to himself: “It seems I was wrong. His actions clearly showed that he did not love me, but only had a kind of favorable impression that even he himself did not fully understand. But why did he treat me like that before ... As far as not hesitating to take such a big risk going to the Xiao Sect Branch, to save myself? "

Under the atmosphere that had suddenly become awkward and dubious, the two continued their journey to the Blue Wind Empire. But when night fell, just as they were looking for lodging a second time, this inn also only had one room left. And like the first one, this inn also stated that they were the only inn in the vicinity of a hundred kilometers. If they choose to stay, they stay. If not, then it is only an option to sleep on the streets.

Yun Che and Lan Xueruo could only "extremely helpless" stay in the single room once again.

And when there is a first, the second will be much more natural. The two again slept in the same bed, the middle still divided by a rolled up blanket …

However on the morning of the second day, Lan Xueruo saw an almost exactly the same situation as the day before. A blanket was thrown at who knew where; his entire body was hugging Yun Che like an octopus, and holding on very firmly …

Day three, day four, day five …

The inns they came to at all times, as if they had been discussing with each other, had nothing more and nothing less, always had one room left and absolutely no additions. Sometimes there was only one inn, other times there were many inns, but each of them only had one room left. With the second and third, the fourth and fifth were even more natural. And during these days, whenever Lan Xueruo woke up, the gaze she saw would always be herself tightly hugging Yun Che. Even when he constantly reminded himself before falling asleep, it remained the same when he woke up. And furthermore, he vaguely hugged her tighter and tighter each day.

After experiencing several days of bed-sharing, even the last piece of her subconscious rejection of physical contact to such an extent with Yun Che, quietly disappeared.

And on the sixth day when they found an inn, Yun Che directly slammed the counter with his hand, and openly said: "Owner of the inn, give me one room. ”

Lan Xueruo simply opened her lips, then lowered her head, not saying any words of rejection.

If Lan Xueruo accompanied the other man on the trip, not to mention sharing a bed, it would be impossible to even let her fingers be touched by someone else. But when meeting a veteran like Yun Che with two life experiences and teenage appearances, let alone eighteen years old, even if he was twenty-eight years old, he would still fall silently like this .. Without even realizing it himself in the slightest.

————————————

Blue Wind Imperial City, or the capital of Blue Wind Empire, was located in the middle-north area of Blue Wind Empire, and was also the largest city of Blue Wind Empire; it was over thirty times the size of New Moon City. In the dead center of the imperial city, lay the pinnacle of authority in the Blue Wind Empire – Imperial Palace.

Forty miles straight north from the location of the Imperial Palace laid the largest Profound Palace of the Blue Wind Empire —— Blue Wind Profound Palace.

The history of Blue Wind Profound Palace stretches back for thousands of years. Founded by the Blue Wind Imperial Family, it was a location used by the royal family to cultivate advanced profound practitioners. Moreover, it was a countless number of sacred locations that the young practitioners of the Blue Wind Empire dreamed of. The interior of Blue Wind Profound Palace was divided into three levels: Outer Palace, Middle Palace, and Inner Palace. If one could enter the Middle Palace, and be willing to serve the Imperial Family, one would definitely be greatly appreciated by the Imperial Family. If one entered the military, the starting point would be the commander of the first rank of a thousand people. But for a practitioner who could enter the Inner Palace, he would receive the greatest attention of the Imperial Family, would receive excellent resources in addition to the best conditions during his stay in the Blue Wind Profound Palace. Any growth of them within the Blue Wind Profound Palace would receive the full attention of the Imperial Family. Before leaving Blue Wind Profound Palace, one would receive an invitation to join the imperial family from the Imperial Family initiative. Once one joined the Imperial Family, obtaining a high position was only secondary; the most important part was that their entire family would be bathed in wealth and glory because of this. Even chickens and dogs would become nobles.

As a result, to be able to enter the Inner Palace of Profound Blue Wind Profound Palace was a dream that knew how many young profound practitioners.

However, Blue Wind Profound Palace was ultimately, the Blue Wind Empire's greatest Profound Palace. Not to mention the Inner Palace, even the conditions to enter the Outer Palace that had the lowest standards were also extremely frightening. It was enough to eliminate ninety percent of the practitioners hoping to enter Blue Wind Profound Palace. They could only retreat for their second choice, entering the Great Palace established by the Imperial Family in small towns.
