As soon as she entered the cave, Luo JinXiao nearly fainted, hit by the protruding rocks around her. Quickly, she summoned her spiritual power to envelop herself, preventing a painful fall.

Below seemed like an endless abyss, pitch-black and impenetrable. Luo JinXiao used her spiritual power to slow her descent. Suddenly, she felt something soft beneath her, rolled over, and finally, the cave came to an end.

In a daze, she realized that what she landed on could move. Startled, she struggled to get up, only to hear a low growl filled with exasperation: "Luo JinXiao, get off me!"

Luo JinXiao froze for a moment, realizing she had fallen on Qu WeiYin, even holding her as they rolled on the ground.

Perhaps the more anxious she was, the more mistakes she made. As she managed to stand halfway, she tripped over something and fell again. Even Qu WeiYin was unprepared this time, and they both tumbled together.

A stronger-than-usual floral scent filled her nostrils, and a soft body unexpectedly collided with her embrace. Luo JinXiao held her breath, too scared to move.

The woman's body was indescribably beautiful, only the word "lovely" could suffice. Although covered in layers of clothing, its slender softness was still evident, something Luo JinXiao, as a young girl, could only dream of.

The cave was silent, their heartbeats almost synchronized, beating steadily.

Time seemed to crawl by slowly, until Qu WeiYin pushed her away and stood up without a word, stepping aside without attempting to illuminate the surroundings.

Luo JinXiao regretted her actions. She slapped her forehead in frustration, then quickly stood up. With a flick of her fingers, a silver light appeared at her fingertip, flickering on and off.

With the spiritual light, Luo JinXiao saw Qu WeiYin standing aside, cheeks slightly flushed, though she couldn’t see clearly as Qu WeiYin quickly turned away.

Qu WeiYin, in any lifetime, had never been so close to someone so frequently.

Although the girl's body was not fully matured, it had a hint of a woman's softness, and such a close embrace surprisingly felt warm...

Qu WeiYin despised this part of herself that subconsciously craved warmth.

"Little Martial Aunt, I'm sorry..." Luo JinXiao apologized cautiously, feeling genuinely guilty and hoping Qu WeiYin wouldn't blame her.

But as she took two steps forward, Qu WeiYin suddenly spoke, her voice sounding somewhat exasperated.

"Stay away."

Luo JinXiao immediately stopped in her tracks, thinking, she's definitely angry.

"The Upper Heaven Realm is extremely dangerous. Why did you follow me down here?" Qu WeiYin continued, her breath still sounding uneven.

"Little Martial Aunt saved me earlier. Leaving you alone here would be too dangerous," Luo JinXiao quickly explained.

"Then what use are you down here?" Qu WeiYin said, turning to walk into the pitch-black distance.
