she remarked, her voice carrying a subtle edge of authority.
"But do not assu that you can address as you please. Should you dare to do so again, be prepared to face the consequences."
Her words carried a warning, leaving no doubt as to the seriousness of her resolve.
Ji Rongi’s subtle test was aid at gauging Xiao Chen’s level of interest in her. She knew that if he were truly interested, he would refrain from addressing her with formalities such as "senior," and vice versa.
Unbeknownst to her, Xiao Chen had been anticipating this mont.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen feigned a mistake, imdiately retracting his previous address.
"Senior, Please forgive this junior for his ignorance," he said, his tone carrying a hint of contrition.
Upon hearing Xiao Chen’s words, Ji Rongi’s eyes dimd montarily, a fleeting sense of disappointnt washing over her.

Xiao Chen couldn’t help but laugh inwardly at Ji Rongi’s adorable display, he remained composed as a system prompt sounded in his mind.
[Ding* Ji Rongi’s favorability for the host reached 54.]
He recognized that Ji Rongi’s confirmation of his interest in her had contributed to this increase.

"Does. that an, Senior, you’ve agreed to enter the tomb with ?" he asked, his tone suggesting a hint of mischief.

Without uttering a word in response, she hurriedly made her way toward the portal, her actions betraying her inner turmoil.
Especially stung by Xiao Chen’s use of the term "senior," Ji Rongi couldn’t help but regret her decision.
After all, who would want their crush to address them in such an elderly tone?
anwhile, Xiao Chen turned his attention to Ye Fan, delivering a swift slap to the other cheek, causing Ye Fan to lose consciousness.
With Ye Fan taken care of, Xiao Chen quickly made his way towards Ji Rongi.
As for Ji Rongi, she paid little mind to Ye Fan, dismissing him as nothing more than a useless individual who relied on her protection to maintain a facade.
As Xiao Chen and Ji Rongi stood before the portal, a mysterious voice resonated from the depths of the tomb once again.
"[Initial Requirent completed.]"
"[Main requirent completed.]"
"[It is detected that Two people have perfect harmony in thier inner thoughts .]"
"[It is detected that Two people are interested in each other.]"
As the mysterious voice exposed her inner thoughts, Ji Rongi was left dumbfounded, her initial shock evident despite her attempts to maintain composure.

her embarrassnt was quickly replaced by a sense of relief upon hearing the Tomb’s confirmation of their mutual interest.
Even Xiao Chen was surprised by the unexpected assist but he refrained from further embarrassing her.

Observing Xiao Chen take the lead and enter the portal without further teasing her, Ji Rongi couldn’t help but feel a sense of sweetness wash over her.
Despite their earlier banter and teasing, she could see that Xiao Chen was still considerate of her feelings.
Entering the portal together, Xiao Chen and Ji Rongi found themselves on a simple, round platform.
Their surroundings seed almost surreal, and their initial sense of dizziness soon faded as they took in their new environnt.
At the center of the platform floated a srizing white fla, casting an ethereal glow that left both Xiao Chen and Ji Rongi stunned.
Now they realized that what they had witnessed from the outside was rely a facade.

The ethereal white fla seed to shimr with excitent as Xiao Chen and Ji Rongi made their way onto the platform within the tomb.
Upon reaching the center of the platform, they noticed two futons positioned facing each other. It was clear that this was ant for them to sit and Subdue the celestial fla together.
Curious about the fla’s identity, Ji Rongi turned to Xiao Chen and inquired, "Junior Xiao, Do you know the na of this fla?"

Ji Rongi’s eyes widened in astonishnt.
"What? So, it is the celestial fla of harmony but how could a Heavenly and Earthly Fla ranked in the top four be found in this lower realm?" she exclaid, silently marveling at the revelation.
’And to think, it appeared alongside an unparalleled talent, which can rarely be found even in the upper realm,’ she added in her heart, casting a aningful glance at Xiao Chen.
As they settled onto the futons facing each other, Xiao Chen and Ji Rongi prepared themselves to absorb the Celestial Fla of Harmony.
As Both of them knew and were confident in each other’s strength, they focused on the task at hand

The truth is that it was a rudintary form of an unknown ancient fla, shrouded in mystery and unpredictability.
The reasons behind this deviation from the expected scenario, particularly why Ye Fan had failed to uncover the truth in the original plot remained elusive.
It was clear that the answers to these questions could only be revealed at the opportune mont when the circumstances aligned and the timing was ripe.
As they comnced absorbing the white fla, its resistance beca palpable against both Xiao Chen and Ji Rongi.
While Ji Rongi faced a formidable challenge due to her bloodline suppression, the celestial fla of harmony swiftly redirected its focus toward Xiao Chen.

A sense of déjà vu washed over him, prompting him to open his mouth to explain. However the next second his lips were blocked.
