She didn't know why she would suddenly say such things.
She was a woman of integrity for hundreds of years, never being flirtatious or insincere with men.
But ever since meeting this man, she had let her guard down — an unimaginable turn of events.
All this was for the continuation of the Piaomiao Palace's legacy that had lasted for thousands of years.
It was all for the safety of the many female cultivators in the Piaomiao Palace.
That's why she made this decision.
It wasn't because she was attracted to this man, leading her to make the first move.
Ye Feirou was not the type of woman who falls for a man at first sight - there was no way she would be smitten by such a man.
After all, she had met numerous handsome men in the Canglan Sea region.
Of course, she had never seen a man like him - a first-class rarity in thousands of years.
Hearing these words, Zhou Sui's expression turned strange. He hadn't expected Ye Feirou to suddenly say such things, which was unlike the status of the Palace Master of Piaomiao Palace.
However, after sensing carefully, he found that Ye Feirou's fondness for him had certainly increased a lot.
Ever since their first meeting, it shot up tremendously.
If her fondness was to be measured on a scale of a hundred, it was at least eighty-five now.
Of course, unless it was one hundred, he would not make a move on this woman, no matter how tempting she might be.
"Master Ye, please comport yourself."
"I know you are very concerned about Piaomiao Palace."
"But I have no intention of blackmailing you with this."
"Although I, Zhou Sui, am fond of having numerous wives and concubines, I never coerced anyone. They were all willing."
"If Master Ye likes me, it would naturally be my honor."
"But if you're offering yourself to me just for Piaomiao Palace, there's no need."
"Moreover, there's no need for you to worry about the threat from the monsters."
"As long as our plan succeeds in destroying the Ancient Monster Conversion Formation of the Demon Clan, the danger to Piaomiao Palace will naturally be resolved."
Zhou Sui exuded righteousness as if he were a truly honorable man.
Hearing these words, Ye Feirou felt warmth spreading throughout her heart.
She had initially thought that this man would be a lecherous ghoul, ready to possess her the moment he heard her proposition and might even forcefully have her.
She regretted her impulsivity, reprimanding herself for putting forth such a shameless proposal.
How is she any different from those female cultivators from the Demonic Path?
But after hearing his words, she understood why so many Nascent Soul female cultivators were following this man. There was a reason for that.
This man was not just good-looking and extremely talented, he was not arrogant because of his abilities and respected women.
To put it simply, he was almost a perfect partner.
If she had met this man in her younger days, perhaps she wouldn't have stayed single for so long.
However, she also felt a bit annoyed.
As a peerless beauty, she had taken the initiative, yet this man had rejected her.
Could it be that she wasn't desirable enough for him, and that's why he tactfully refused?
But no matter what, her fondness for Zhou Sui was steadily rising.
"Of course, if Master Ye is genuinely worried about the safety of Piaomiao Palace, I'd be willing to lend a helping hand."
"To tell you the truth, I have also cultivated the art of Clone."
"I can leave a clone at the Piaomiao Palace."
"If unfortunate circumstances occur, it can assist and ward off the demon cultivators."
Zhou Sui thought it over and offered his suggestion.
After all, he couldn't just watch this future Dao companion fall into danger.
Given the current situation, no one could predict when the Demon Clan would launch an attack on Piaomiao Palace.
Although the Demon Clan was focused on building the Ancient Monster Conversion Formation, who knew if they would suddenly go mad? It was better to be safe than sorry.
"No wonder you're Zhou Sui, you can even master the Clone technique."
"In that case, I'll be counting on you."
"If you ever need help in the future, I will definitely not refuse."
Ye Feirou looked at Zhou Sui with gentle, appreciative eyes.
She felt warmth in her heart, it had been a long time since she met such a comforting man.
The usual male cultivators were lecherous ghouls, wanting to possess her at the sight of her.
Un man, who despite her voluntary offer, remained composed.
He even went to the extent of refusing her.
It must be said that this man was indeed a true gentleman.
In fact, ever since their encounter on Yongtai Island, where he faced numerous fourth stage demon cultivators and still stepped forward to help the female cultivators of Piaomiao Palace, she knew he was a true gentleman. It was just confirmed even more now.
If there were more such gentlemen among cultivators in this world, the Cultivation World probably wouldn't be so treacherous.
Unfortunately, it was just wishful thinking.
Zhou Sui's clone returned to the Wuji Alliance through the Piaomiao Palace's Teleportation Array.
Then, through the Wuji Alliance's Teleportation Array, he returned to the Tri-Star Island Group, bringing all the spoils from this journey to his main body.
"Is this the Dragon Whiskers Ice-Fire Fruit?"
At that moment, Zhou Sui was in a cave dwelling on Xuanhuang Island. He held a red fruit in his hand, on which grew golden dragon whiskers. The fruit contained the power of both ice and fire.
Undoubtedly, this was the Dragon Whiskers Ice-Fire Fruit mentioned by the Object-searching Gu.
