Chapter 2535 Contented

“Mm hmm, the rest can be delegated to subordinates.” He took her hand in his and fiddled with it repeatedly. In his eyes, a mysterious spark flared, carrying his elusive thought.

After noticing that he appeared to be a little absent-minded, Feng Jiu cocked her head towards him and asked, “Do you have something on your mind?”

Xuanyuan Mo Ze looked deeply into her eyes and smiled, “It’s nothing.”

Since he didn’t elaborate, Feng Jiu didn’t enquire further. She could tell whether or not something was on his mind, but since he didn’t say anything, he shouldn’t want her to be concerned. But what was he preoccupied with?

“It’s fine to be idle right now. I’m going to take you to see the sunset!” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said as he lifted her up. The flying sword appeared beneath her feet and lifted her into the sky the next moment.

Feng Jiu leaned into his arms. The two of them moved towards the wind, their sleeves fluttering in the breeze. They flew past the city and out to the outskirts until they reached the top of a mountain and jumped off the sword.

“The view of the sunset is unobstructed from here. It’s also an excellent location for viewing the stars.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze drew her towards a pavilion ahead.

“Does this place actually have a pavilion?”

This pavilion, perched atop a mountain, exuded a sense of seclusion from the rest of the world. She gazed down the slope and observed not just this pavilion, but more rest pavilions at regular intervals. The mountain ladders could be seen clearly all the way down. Small groups of people were ascending the mountain on those ladders, while others were resting in the pavilion.

“I noticed a spot to enjoy the scenery when I passed by this place after leaving the last time, so I thought of bringing you here.” He entered the pavilion, sat down, and took the wine from the space.

Feng Jiu smiled as she walked over to the table and sat down. “It seems that you are looking forward to coming here.”

“It’s rare to have the leisure time to enjoy the scenery, so I can’t pass up this golden opportunity,” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said as he poured her a cup of wine, then picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip.

The two of them sat there watching the sun gently set in the twilight sky. The sun appeared to be in front of them. Perhaps because they were on high ground, it seemed as if they could reach out and touch it with their hands. Feng Jiu rested one hand on her cheek, savouring the coolness of the evening breeze. The setting sun gradually turned a brilliant orange colour, like a mouth-watering egg yolk inside a salted duck egg. The sun set rapidly as if it disappeared down the mountain in the blink of an eye. The sky was gradually darkening as the sun went down the mountain. The sky darkened, signalling the arrival of night. The temperature at the summit of the mountain also dropped significantly. The evening breeze carried a slight chill.

They were both quiet, savouring the peace and serenity of the moment.

“The stars will appear after a while. From here, they should be very close.” Feng Jiu said as he sipped his wine. She enjoyed looking at him as he sat in front of her.

The light was so dim because the sky was dark and the moon hadn’t yet come out that even cultivators like them couldn’t see clearly. So, Xuanyuan Mo Ze took an egg-sized night pearl from the space and placed it in the centre of the stone tabletop. The pavilion was instantly illuminated by the dazzling light.
