As the children's fates were revealed and confirmed one by one, the banquet in the Crystal Palace gradually came to an end, but Bai Muyun seemed to have a lot to say to Li Wanji.

He knew that during the past half month in the Dragon Roar Abyss, Li Wanji had been deliberately avoiding him because of the relationship between Jiuluo Nanxing and himself, let alone being alone with him.

If it weren't for the children's transformation and the fate of the immortals today, I'm afraid there wouldn't be much interaction between the two of them.

After daybreak, he would take the children to Fengdu to meet the Phoenix Emperor. If they met again after this separation, it might be several years later, or even longer.

Bai Muyun didn't want to leave any regrets, but he and Li Wanji both had strong personalities, so it was really not easy for him to take the initiative to say something soft.

While thinking, he took a sip of the sake in the glass to hide his uneasiness and expectation.

"Wan Ji, don't worry, just leave the matter of the children's apprenticeship to me. I will arrange everything myself and ensure that they can enter the school smoothly." Bai Muyun finally spoke, his voice gentle but firm.

Li Wanji was a little surprised. Bai Muyun gave the Spirit Gathering Seal to her. She originally thought that Bai Muyun gave her the money so that she could handle these things, but she didn't expect that he still planned to do it himself.

"Muyun, you..." Li Wanji wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

"Are you stupid?" Bai Muyun couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Li Wanji stunned. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.

Li Wanji came back to her senses and shook her head gently: "No, I just think that you have really sacrificed a lot for the children."

"Wan Ji, what are you talking about? As a parent, you naturally have to think about the future of your children. What's more, they are not only your children, but also my children."

A warm feeling surged in Li Wanji's heart. She knew that Bai Muyun was a man who would keep his word and act decisively. He would definitely do what he said.

"Yes, you are right." Li Wanji suddenly understood a lot more. The Heavenly Dao chose a Taoist partner for her not only based on the other party's bloodline and qualifications, but also paid more attention to the other party's character and background.

With a Taoist partner like Bai Muyun, she can completely entrust some things to him, which is safer and more efficient than doing everything on her own.

Thinking of this, Li Wanji couldn't help but reveal a sincere smile. She picked up the wine glass and toasted Bai Muyun: "Muyun, thank you."

Mu Yun clinked glasses with her with a smile and drank it all in one gulp.

When they were awake, they talked about their children and nothing else.

Li Wanji always maintained a slight reserve and aloofness, while Bai Muyun looked calm and composed, as if everything was within his expectations.

He knew Li Wanji's character very well, and was also aware of the struggle and entanglement in her heart at the moment. He didn't say anything more, but just accompanied her silently, enjoying this rare quiet time.

However, as the night deepened and the banquet ended, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. However, Bai Muyun, under the influence of alcohol, quietly came to Li Wanji's door.

He stood outside the door, took a deep breath, and then knocked gently.

After a while, Li Wanji's slightly puzzled voice came from inside the door: "Who?"

"It's me, Muyun." Bai Muyun's voice was gentle and low.

There was silence from inside the door for a while, and then the door opened with a creaky sound.

Li Wanji was standing inside the door, wearing a white nightgown. Her hair was a little disheveled, and she had obviously just woken up from her sleep.

There was still some sleepiness on her face and her eyes were a little hazy, but when she saw Bai Muyun standing outside the door, her eyes instantly became clearer.

"Muyun? Why are you here?"

Bai Muyun smiled slightly, stepped into the room, and closed the door behind him: "Of course I miss you."

Li Wanji's cheeks were instantly flushed. She lowered her head, not daring to look into Bai Muyun's eyes, because his eyes were the most bewitching and could best see through people's hearts.

"You...you are drunk." Li Wanji said softly, trying to hide her inner panic.

"Maybe." Bai Muyun did not deny it. He walked to Li Wanji, reached out and gently held her cheeks, forcing her to look at him.

If facing a sober Bai Muyun, Li Wanji might still have the courage to refuse, but at this moment, his eyes were a little drunk, making him look even more gentle and affectionate.

Her heart couldn't help but soften, and the originally firm wall of her heart collapsed in an instant.

"Muyun..." she called softly, with a hint of trembling in her voice.

"Wanji, don't say anything, I know everything." Bai Muyun lowered his head and kissed Li Wanji's lips.

His kiss was gentle and lingering, as if he wanted to pour all his tenderness into her.

Li Wanji's body stiffened instantly, but she did not push Bai Muyun away, but let him kiss her.

Her heart was beating so fast that she could hardly bear it.

It was clear that this woman had him in her heart. Bai Muyun felt soft in his heart as he looked at the shy woman in his arms.

He did not rush things, but slowed down his movements, giving her time to adapt and accept.

He kissed her deeply, with a bit of dominance and strength, yet tenderness and delicacy, as if he wanted to occupy her completely.

Li Wanji held Bai Muyun's waist tightly with her hands, and her heartbeat was particularly clear in the quiet night.

Her eyes were closed tightly, as if at this moment, she wanted to concentrate all her senses on Bai Muyun, to feel his breath, his temperature, and his taste.

Bai Muyun's kiss gradually moved down, along her neck, collarbone, and all the way down.

His hands gently unbuttoned her nightgown, revealing her jade-white skin...

The moonlight poured in from the window, casting a soft silver gauze over the room.

In Bai Muyun and Li Wanji's room, the flickering warm yellow candlelight added a touch of beauty to the quiet night.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into the room, Bai Muyun had already left.

When Li Wanji woke up, Bai Muyun's breath and temperature were still on her pillow, as if he was still by her side. She gently stroked the pillow, with a gentle smile on her lips.

After she got up, she walked to the window, opened it, and fresh air and warm sunshine poured into the room.

Bai Muyun came to say goodbye to her last night. They were about to go to their respective mountains and seas.

Although they were reluctant, they all knew that this was something they had to accomplish.

They did not say much, but just used a gentle and affectionate night to give each other, silently expressing their attachment and reluctance in their hearts.

Then, under the witness of the moonlight, they each left.

Goodbye, Bai Muyun!
