As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a stir.
"Princess Yangyue is going to Qihuang Mountain for a banquet? Our emperor is up to something!"
"Oh? What's the story?"
"Don't you know? Princess Yangyue and the Holy Maiden of Qihuang Mountain have always been at odds with each other. They compete in everything, from cultivation to reputation, talent, and appearance. They have been competing for many years without a clear winner. But this time, the Holy Maiden is holding a marriage proposal, and Princess Yangyue is representing the royal family... Hehe, it's going to be an interesting show!"
The enthusiasm of the common people reached its peak. They waited eagerly, and finally, the exciting day arrived.
The date of the Holy Maiden's marriage proposal was set for seven days later. The emperor even issued a special decree for this occasion. Walking on the streets, one could see cultivators flying towards Qihuang Mountain with their radiant swords, leaving behind the sound of clashing blades.
The sight of immortals was rare, but now it was everywhere.
Meanwhile, in the distant Qihuang Mountain in the South Sea, inside the Blazing Fire Secret Realm.
Gu Chi, lying on the ground, was unaware of the changes in the outside world. He was only looking at the girl sitting on him, wearing a light red veil that barely concealed her enchanting beauty, lost in thought.
When he woke up and unconsciously moved his body, Huang Yang also woke up.
Their eyes met.
Gu Chi: "..."
Huang Yang: "..."
The flames had already extinguished without them noticing, and the Cave Mansion was burned clean, leaving only a lonely long sword on the ground.
The intensity of the fire was evident.
The air became silent for a moment.
In Huang Yang's bright red eyes, Gu Chi's figure was reflected, and there was a hint of complexity in her expression.
Gu Chi's current mood was also indescribable.
The system's prompt record was as follows:

The system prompt ended here.
Gu Chi: "..."
His judgment was correct. The Little Red Bird was the opportunity, but the way this opportunity unfolded was completely different from what he had expected...
The "Eye Divination" was not deceiving. The 18+ was indeed 18+, and the immersion was strong.
To go from the First Realm to the Second Realm required 10,000 experience points, from the Second Realm to the Third Realm required 100,000 experience points, and from the Third Realm to the Transcendent Realm required 1,000,000 experience points.
It was equivalent to having a night of passion with the Little Red Bird, allowing a Third Realm cultivator to directly advance to the Transcendent Realm. This opportunity was truly worthy of being called a divine treasure, but...
What should he do next?
Previously, he didn't consider the Little Red Bird as a person, so he didn't need to think too much. But now that he knew the Little Red Bird was a person, the situation was different.
The deed had already been done, and Gu Chi wouldn't dwell on what could have been. Dealing with this relationship properly was the most important thing.
The phoenix, the girl, the impeccable appearance and figure, and the soft and passionate lips... Gu Chi had already realized at that time that the Little Red Bird was most likely the Holy Maiden of Qihuang Mountain.
While she was preparing for her marriage proposal, he had stolen her heart.
What was even more absurd was that he had spent a year with the Holy Maiden without even knowing her name.
But he knew how to address her.
Gu Chi: "..."
Let's start with introducing ourselves.
After a long gaze with Huang Yang, Gu Chi broke the silence.
"Gu Changge."
Huang Yang: "..."
Hearing Gu Chi introduce himself, she inexplicably thought of the same thing as Gu Chi.
After all, it wasn't just her who could sing melodiously.
A faint blush appeared on Huang Yang's cheeks, but quickly disappeared. She slightly opened her red lips and said, "Huang Yang."
Gu Chi: "..."
He had already prepared himself to have a serious conversation with Huang Yang - she had been staring at him with complex eyes before, and her emotions seemed stable. He thought she had a cold personality and was ready for a cold conversation. But unexpectedly, Huang Yang suddenly blushed, catching him off guard...
Gu Chi was speechless, and Huang Yang didn't know what to say either.She was never good at conversing with others, and her mind was a bit chaotic at the moment, causing the just-warmed atmosphere to cool down again.
Huang Yang: "......"
Gu Chi: "......"
The two of them were once again at a loss for words.
Gu Chi, trying to make conversation, asked, "You... are the Holy Maiden, right?"
Huang Yang admitted, "Yes."
Gu Chi: "Hello."
Huang Yang: "......"
You really know how to chat.
Huang Yang was taken aback, somewhat annoyed, "I'm not fine, it still hurts."
Gu Chi: "......"
Is the Holy Maiden being coy?
Huang Yang: "......"
Shouldn't she be angry at this moment?
Gu Chi felt that continuing the conversation like this was not a solution, so he took out the Enlightenment Pill, put two of them into his backpack, and handed the last one along with the wooden box to Huang Yang, "As I promised."
Huang Yang hesitated slightly, took the wooden box, and stared straight at Gu Chi, "I still owe you half a favor."
Gu Chi wanted to say it wasn't necessary, but seeing the stubbornness and determination in Huang Yang's eyes, he understood the girl's meaning and held back his words.
Matters of the heart are not about transactions.
Gu Chi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell you when I've thought it through."
"Also..."
"I'm sorry."
Apologies may be meaningless, but they still need to be said.
Huang Yang hummed in acknowledgment and put the Enlightenment Pill into her storage ring.
Gu Chi didn't say anything, just silently watched the girl on him.
Huang Yang seemed to realize something, her gaze swept over Gu Chi's handsome face and sturdy chest, she didn't say a word, silently turned into a small phoenix in a burst of flame, and flew to the other side of the Cave Mansion. She felt like she had lost something, yet also like she hadn't...
Gu Chi finally regained his mobility, quickly put on his spare clothes, and stretched his limbs.
His body was incredibly sore.
A whole year, he wouldn't dare to do this even in his dreams.
After a while, Huang Yang seemed to have sorted out her thoughts, realizing that they had spent too much time in their intimate moment, she said, "The Marriage Proposal is in a few days, I need to go back and prepare, remember to come to Qihuang Mountain on time."
"Okay," Gu Chi agreed, "Do you need me to do anything?"
"No need." Huang Yang, having calmed down, her words carried a bit of the Holy Maiden's demeanor, she said, "I plan to cancel the Marriage Proposal."
"Cancel the Marriage Proposal?" Gu Chi was slightly taken aback, then why was he going to Qihuang Mountain?

Huang Yang: "You want fame, right? Why not go big?"
Gu Chi: "What do you mean?"
Huang Yang looked at him intently, "Let's get married directly."
Gu Chi: "......"
