Chapter 2720: How Dare 4

Editor: Henyee Translations

At this time, she had to serve the expressionless Heaven Emperor. Just the thought of it gave her a headache.

Still.

She was more conflicted.

She really didn’t want to go, but the water in the bathtub was too rich in spiritual energy, making her captivated.

Gu Chaoyan keenly sensed that a single soak in the spiritually potent water would yield a significant boost to her cultivation.

At her current stage, further advancement wouldn’t follow the typical incremental progression. Instead, reaching certain thresholds would trigger substantial, almost exponential growth—a concept Gu Chaoyan eagerly pursued.

After wrestling with her thoughts for a prolonged period, she reluctantly departed, her demeanor akin to a resigned quail.

Returning to the familiar scene, she found the Heaven Emperor still standing in his usual spot, unmoving and inscrutable as ever.

Still.

Gu Chaoyan got very familiar with it.

She would go up and change his clothes. After taking off his clothes, she would just close her eyes and take off his pants.

Anyway, she wouldn’t open her eyes.

The Heaven Emperor chuckled lightly.

Gu Chaoyan was confused, but she still did not open her eyes.

The Heaven Emperor was laughing at her for thinking too much. After all, there were still pants inside. She was the only one who thought that there was nothing left.

He entered the bathtub.

Gu Chaoyan followed him in.

It was still back rubbing…

Still.

This time, the Heaven Emperor bathed even longer.

Gu Chaoyan was fine at first, but when she could not rub anymore, she fell asleep on her stomach.

Initially, the Heaven Emperor was still wondering what she was doing. Why hadn’t she made a move for so long?

After a long while.

Turning around, the Heaven Emperor beheld Gu Chaoyan sleeping soundly on her stomach, a sight that elicited a helpless sigh from him.

He attributed her state to the effects of the spring water. Despite soaking for only a brief period the previous day out of concern for her well-being, she had evidently absorbed an abundance of spiritual energy. Today, with extended immersion, she had managed to tolerate even more, eventually succ.u.mbing to slumber due to the overwhelming influx of qi.

Unruffled by her unexpected nap, the Heaven Emperor decided to allow her to rest in the bathtub a while longer. He a.s.sumed his post, standing watch over her.

Observing her closely, the Empress Dowager couldn’t help but reflect on how long it had been since he had regarded her with such attention.

Indeed, it had been many years—perhaps even decades.

In the past, when his clone had been at her side, he had been aware of her presence, but it lacked the immediacy and intimacy of their current proximity.

Yet, despite the pa.s.sage of time, she remained unchanged in her slumber, resembling a harmless babe in her peaceful repose.

Although he was now in an unfamiliar Sky Sect, he was still quite timid when he woke up.

However, there was not much time left.

After that, she would return to her original state.

Because she was in the bathtub, the fog had wet her hair. Her face was a little red from the heat of water, and there were a few drops of water on her eyelashes.

The Heaven Emperor inched closer to her and planted a kiss on her eyes.

She s.h.i.+fted uneasily.

The Heaven Emperor didn’t dare to make another move.

Despite his strong will, the Heaven Emperor couldn’t help but feel a twinge of frustration in her presence. Enduring it as long as he could, he eventually reached his limit. Gently lifting her, he placed Gu Chaoyan on a nearby blanket and used his spiritual energy to dry her clothes before swiftly departing.

Once outside, he plunged into the cool waters of the lake, finding solace in its embrace.

Meanwhile, Gu Chaoyan stirred awake upon leaving the bath, her surroundings unfamiliar. Perplexed, she scanned her surroundings, puzzled by her whereabouts and the absence of the Heaven Emperor.

Despite her efforts to rationalize, the answers eluded her.

It was Huailan who eventually entered, informing her it was time to return and rest.

Returning to her quarters, Gu Chaoyan found herself devoid of sleepiness, feeling a surge of newfound energy coursing through her.

Only then did she remember that she had yet to go to the Chaotic s.p.a.ce.
