Her eyes met his dark and deep eyes, indifferent and cold. His white clothes would appear in her dreams countless times throughout the night. She felt that it was funny whenever she thought about it, but she could only blame herself for being too attracted to him.

When Siyan Qingjun saw Yun Duan, he stood up with a respectful attitude. He only made a slight bow and said in a melodious voice, "Your Majesty!"

Yun Duan was stunned. The first one to react was Qin Ni. She looked at the person standing in front of the table and saw that he was wearing a clean white robe. Although it was snowing outside, he was colder than it was.

Could this be the Misty Monarch?

Seeing Yun Duan stare blankly at him, Siyan Qingjun found it funny. His lips curled up into a faint smile as he took a few steps forward. "We haven't seen each other for a few months. Could it be that Your Majesty doesn't recognize me anymore?"

Yun Kexin seemed to be a bit annoyed that she could see through him.

Walking into the hall, he was somewhat surprised and curious. Walking with Chen Changsheng to the table and sitting down, Yun Duan asked, "Why are you here?"

She looked at Yun Duan and then looked at the cup on the table. Yun Duan blinked and said, "Do you still want some strong tea?"

Siyan Qingjun nodded, "I didn't think that Your Majesty would still remember!"

No one will ever forget your special hobby, Cloudy thought.

"Can I cook for myself?" Very polite.

Yun Duan waved her hand, and Qin Ni stepped forward.

"Prepare the tea set. Teacher wants to brew the tea himself!"

Glimmers danced in Qin Ni's eyes as she respectfully nodded: "Yes!"

Then he went down to prepare.

Siyan Qingjun smiled and looked at Yun Duan. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Why do you have to call me sir?"

Yun Duan twisted his neck and said, "I think mister has thought it through, right?"

A very pretty smile appeared on his face.

"Is the blood test going well?"

Yun Duan squinted and thought for a while before replying, "Teacher must have been here for quite some time!"

Siyan Qingjun looked at her with his chin down, "I just happened to pass by when I was leaving for the water!"

"…"

What pass by? With such a high cultivation level, she must have appeared in her Flowing Cloud Pavilion without a sound. Perhaps even the servant girl hadn't been alerted.

"So you're the one who thought of a way to test a blood relative?"

This person just happened to appear at the right time, Yun Duan couldn't help but think so.

"I just used some herbs!"

Yun Duan raised her eyebrows. "Is there such an herb?"

Si Yan Qing Jun smiled but didn't say anything.

Yun Duan rubbed his brow and stood up. He looked at Siyan Qingjun and slowly said, "I want to change my clothes first!" She always felt nervous when she wore the court uniform, and the thing on her head was too heavy, so she had to take it off.

Si Yan Qing Jun nodded, "Alright!"

Qin Ni served the tea well and made a gesture of invitation: "Sir, this way please!"

Siyan Qingjun looked at the screen in front of the Immortal pavilion and followed Qin Ni to the other end of the hall.

Not only had Qin Ni prepared tea set, she had also prepared all kinds of snacks. Mistress had eaten very little this morning, and it was almost noon, so it was about time for her to have a meal.

"Sir, please wait a moment. Qin Ni will take her leave!"

Siyan Qingjun politely thanked him, "Thank you very much!"

Yun Duan changed into a new set of clothes and came out. Her hair was casually tied up with a hairpin, making her look like a delicate and pretty little demon.

She smiled as she walked over to Siyan Qingjun and hung her head to sniff at him.

Si Yan Qing Jun looked at her with surprise. "Smell what?"

Yun Duan smiled as she replied, "It smells good. I don't know what it is. It smells really good anyway!"

"…"

"I'm not a woman, how can I smell anything!"

Yun Duan raised an eyebrow. "How would I know!"

As he sat in front of her, he looked her up and down. She smiled and let him gaze at her. After she looked away, he asked, "What do you want me to look at?"

Yun Duan thought about it before leaning back on her chair and blinking her eyes. "You seem to be talking too much. Moreover, you look even better now!"

"…"

He had spoken quite a few words to begin with, but he just didn't like to talk about them.

"You haven't told me if you have that herb yet!" If there really was one and it was found by someone else, wouldn't it be a mess? Even if it wasn't a biological one, he could still be tested as a biological one. This wasn't good, right?

If someone like her had to fake it, then it would be real. However, if others truly wanted to find their loved ones, then they would be kicked by someone who wanted to. That would truly be very depressing and painful.

"Yes!" Siyan Qingjun nodded.

Yun Duan blinked. "Is that so much?"

This kind of thing shouldn't exist just because it was spread all over the mountains and plains, right?

"Not much!" He shook his head.

Yun Duan was somewhat anxious. She directly stretched out her hand to hold the man's hand, not allowing him to do anything else. She could only focus on answering her question.

"Then tell me how you managed to convince the defunct officials?" How could that old fox easily believe others?

Siyan Qingjun looked at Yun Duan holding his hand. The woman's fingers were slender and her joints were clear. Moreover, there was a hint of coldness in her tone, causing others to feel some pity for her.

"Did you listen to me?"

Yun Duan's eyes widened. Did this person treat her as his own existence?

Si Yan Qing Jun lifted his eyes and looked at Yun Duan with his black pupils. He replied, "I only told him that I am the Misty King and he believed me!"

"What else? "Do you really think that a few herbs can make the blood dissolve?"

Si Yan Qing Jun's lips curved up slightly. When he saw the woman's big eyes shining, and her faint playfulness, he suddenly felt his heart beating a bit faster, and he couldn't suppress it.

"Actually, it's not just herbs!"

Yun Duan raised an eyebrow. "What is that?"

Without leaving a trace, Siyan Qingjun let her cold little hand fall into her own hands. She smiled as she replied, "Spiritual force, medicinal herbs can only speed up the process of melting, but they can't continue to dissolve forever. Thus, I set up a small boundary. Once the blood droplets dissolve, the barrier will automatically remain in place until it is destroyed!"

Yun Duan looked at Siyan Qingjun with surprise as if he had just discovered something extraordinary. His eyes shined and his face was filled with worship. "How come I've never heard of something so amazing?" He could actually lay a barrier in such a small cup. He really was an expert.

However, she probably wouldn't be able to use her spiritual power for the rest of her life. She had once told Xuan Hong that once this godly bone was removed, it would be impossible to store it back.

Divine Records could be recovered, but it was of no use.

She frowned, annoyed. Siyan Qingjun reached out his hand and pressed it against the center of her forehead. Yun Duan was stunned. After blinking a few times, her ears suddenly turned red, and then her face became red as well.

He was a bit embarrassed and wanted to take the fan, but he discovered that his hand had somehow managed to run into Si Yan Qing Jun's hand.

When she pulled out, Shiyan Qingjun used a bit of strength, but she didn't pull out.

Yun Duan was annoyed as she stared at him with her big round eyes. She didn't seem to be able to keep her emotions in check in front of him. She always felt that he could see through everything, so she didn't pretend.

"What are you holding me for?"

Si Yan Qing Jun smiled. "Your hands are very cold!"

"…"

The snow was cold, of course. Furthermore, she had never cared about her hands during the four seasons of the year. Sometimes, she would dig in the middle of the winter.

"Why is it so cold?"

Yun Duan didn't say anything and just let him hold her hand. In any case, the man's hand was very warm. Although it looked cold and lonely on the outside, his hand was truly very warm.

"Why didn't you say so?"

Yun Duan let out a soft cough and blinked her large eyes. "That … Can you withdraw this hand?" She pointed at the man's hand between her eyebrows. She really didn't get used to it. For someone who didn't talk much and was indifferent to her to do this kind of thing to her, it was like an explosion. Her heart was beating so fast that she felt like her throat was going to pop out.

"Don't frown. If you have anything to say, just say it. We'll think of a solution together!"

An unknown light flashed in Yun Duan's black eyes. She looked at the man with a somewhat wandering gaze. "Erm, are you really going to help me?"

She still wanted to hear it from him, so she was at ease.

Si Yan Qing Jun smiled and nodded. "Otherwise, why would you think that I would come here in such a snowy day?"

Yun Duan thought about it and said, "It's possible that your little bamboo house doesn't have charcoal. Come and warm up here!"

"…"

Siyan Qingjun really didn't know which side of the woman was real. She could be stern, cold, and bloodthirsty. She could be naïve, and sometimes she could even be a little out of line.

"With me here in the future, nothing like this will ever happen again!"

Yun Duan was stunned. The man gently rubbed the center of her brows and then retracted his hand. The words he said did not have much emotions fluctuating, but it made her feel as though they were the most touching words she had heard in all these years.

With me in the future, how much does one want to rely on?

"Your tea is boiling!" Yun Duan's mind was in a mess as she looked at the man who was making tea. She pointed with her chin, since she couldn't pull his hand out. Alright, it was still very warm. Even though the room was warm, she felt his hand warming up.

Yun Duan lightly slapped her face with her free hand. What was going on with her?

Siyan Qingjun looked at her with a faint smile. "It's fine. Just cook for a little longer and it'll be thicker!"

"…"

She really didn't like his strong tea.

"Mistress, we can have lunch now!" Yun Duan blinked as she looked at the man. If you have the ability to do so, hold onto it all the time.

She had a very smooth and slippery feeling. Although it wasn't as delicate as the hands of some of the young masters and mistresses that lived in luxury, she was still the perfect candidate for that.

However, it was better to avoid blood on his hands in the future, as he did not like it.

Yun Duan's lunch was mostly made up of meat dishes. Fortunately, Qin Ni had the kitchen cook some light dishes. Otherwise, there really wouldn't be anything that Si Yan Qing Jun could eat.

Yun Duan took a bite of cured meat and chewed it. It was very fragrant, and she always felt happy when she had meat to eat. She swallowed a mouthful and looked at the man.

After some thought, he asked, "Are you really not going to eat any meat at all?"

After asking this question, she felt that something was wrong. Back in Cloud Valley, she had forced him to eat a small piece of roasted meat.

He ate it anyway.
