Chapter 560: Mutual Affection Between Lovers

In the following days, Xiao Yufan stayed inside the cold water ravine to process the knowledge passed on by Huangpu Xiu. It must be said that the hidden heritage of the Huangpu family was indeed highly enticing.

In the following days, Xiao Yufan began to digest the knowledge passed down to him by Huangpu Xiu in the Cold Water Gorge. It must be said, the hidden legacy of the Huangpu family was indeed incredibly alluring.

Under Huangpu Xiu’s guidance, Xiao Yufan’s strength also improved, quickly stabilizing at the peak of the mid-stage of Condensed Force. He was just one step away from reaching the pinnacle of Condensed Force, at which point his combat power would undoubtedly soar to a new level.

The cold air outside the cave seemed to be blocked, but Xiao Yufan still often ventured out, as that cold air was quite useful to him…

Whenever he came into contact with the cold air, the Dragon Taming True Art within him would start to operate frantically, and his internal energy would continuously increase. Such a good thing was naturally not something Xiao Yufan would refuse.

It wasn’t until the fourth day that Xiao Yufan, urged by Huangpu Xiu, finally chose to leave!

“Go out and tell that kid Huangpu Yi not to think about making me leave the Cold Water Gorge, because I will never leave. As for why, when the time comes, I will naturally tell him!”

Hearing Huangpu Xiu’s address for the Huangpu family head, Xiao Yufan nearly fainted. Although he knew the old man was very old, he didn’t expect it to be this exaggerated. To call the Huangpu family head a “kid,” the Grand Elder must be over a hundred years old.

“Alright, I will definitely convey your message…”

Nodding, this trip had already brought Xiao Yufan immense benefits, and he didn’t want to stay in this place any longer. Besides, there were many women waiting for him—how could he spend time accompanying an old man?

Though that was the case, after spending a few days together, Xiao Yufan had developed some affection for the old man. After all, the heart is made of flesh, and in a way, this old man was like half a master to him.

Leaving the cave, Xiao Yufan once again traversed the Cold Water Gorge filled with cold air, and this time it was relatively much easier…

Meanwhile, outside the Cold Water Gorge, a beauty stood alone, her long black hair dancing in the wind like a graceful fairy. Yet, in her eyes, there was a hint of longing.

“I think you should be fine. If you don’t come out soon, I will definitely go in to find you!”

Huangpu Xian’er’s beautiful eyes were filled with a warm, intoxicating tenderness. Thinking of Xiao Yufan’s gentle gaze, the corners of her lips curled into a lovely smile. A woman’s heart is sensitive, and no matter the reason Xiao Yufan entered the Cold Water Gorge, the most important thing was that it was because of her.

From the moment Xiao Yufan entered the Cold Water Gorge, Huangpu Xian’er would come here every day, her only purpose being to wait for the appearance of a certain man…

Though they hadn’t interacted much, Xiao Yufan had gradually entered her heart, taking root there. This was a feeling she had never experienced before, and such emotions were reserved for him alone.

“If I had never met you, perhaps I would have chosen to follow my own fate.”

Sighing, Huangpu Xian’er thought of everything they had been through together, a faint blush appearing on her cheeks. She didn’t know why fate had brought them together, but if they hadn’t met at Tsinghua University, none of this would have happened.

“Whose little lady is this? She looks so lonely. Could she be waiting for her man?”

Just as Huangpu Xian’er was about to leave in disappointment, she suddenly heard that familiar voice. Her disappointment instantly turned into joy, and her eyes lifted to meet Xiao Yufan’s playful gaze.

As their eyes met, a warm current surged in Xiao Yufan’s heart. He naturally didn’t believe it was a coincidence that he had run into this woman at the entrance of the Cold Water Gorge. Most likely, she had been coming here every day for a long time.

Though they hadn’t experienced much together, their feelings were complex and intertwined. Even now, Xiao Yufan wasn’t entirely sure what kind of feeling it was, but one thing was undeniable—Huangpu Xian’er would definitely be his woman…

“Is it wrong to wait for my man? And I’m waiting for a heartless man. Does he even know how worried I’ve been all this time?”

A glimmer of moisture appeared in the corners of Huangpu Xian’er’s eyes. Then, with light steps, she walked over to Xiao Yufan and leaned tightly against his strong shoulder. Their love and affection bound their hearts together completely…

Outside the cave, the frigid cold seemed to be blocked off, yet Xiao Yufan still often stepped outside because that icy chill was still beneficial to him.

The moment he came into contact with the cold air, his Yu Long Zhen Jue (True Dragon’s Secret) began to circulate wildly within him, and his internal energy continuously increased. Naturally, Xiao Yufan wouldn’t refuse such a favorable phenomenon.

It wasn’t until the fourth day that Xiao Yufan finally decided to leave, urged by Huangpu Xiu.

“Go out and tell that young master Huangpu Yi not to even think about making me leave the cold water ravine, because I absolutely won’t leave. As for the reason why, I will naturally tell him when the time comes!”

Upon hearing Xiao Yufan address the head of the Huangpu family, he nearly fainted. Although he knew the old man was ancient in age, it was still shocking to see him refer to the family head as a “youngster.” The eldest elder must be over a hundred years old.

“Okay, I will be sure to pass on your message.”

Nodding his head, Xiao Yufan felt that this trip had already brought him tremendous benefits, and he had no desire to stay here any longer. Plus, there were many women waiting for him; how could he waste time staying with an old man?

Nevertheless, despite thinking this way, after several days of companionship, Xiao Yufan had developed some affection for the old man. After all, everyone has a heart of flesh and blood. In a certain sense, this old man was half his master.

Leaving the cave, Xiao Yufan once again crossed the cold water ravine. This time, it was relatively much easier.

At the same time, outside the ravine, a graceful figure stood alone. Her long, flowing black hair danced in the wind like a fairy. Yet, in her beautiful eyes was a hint of longing.

“I thought you should be okay. If you hadn’t come out soon, I would have definitely gone in to find you!”

Huangpu Xian’er’s beautiful eyes brimmed with a touch of intoxicating warmth. Thinking of Xiao Yufan’s gentle gaze, a charming smile surfaced on her lips. A woman’s heart is always sensitive. Regardless of why Xiao Yufan had entered the cold water ravine, the most important reason was probably because of her.

Since Xiao Yufan entered the ravine, Huangpu Xian’er had come here every day, simply waiting for the appearance of one man.

Although their interactions had been limited, Xiao Yufan had gradually entered her heart and taken root there. This kind of feeling was something she had never experienced before, and such tender emotions were reserved solely for him.

“If we had never met, perhaps I would have chosen to obey my destiny!”

Sighing softly, Huangpu Xian’er recalled everything they had experienced together, a faint blush appearing on her face. She didn’t know why fate had drawn them together, but if they hadn’t met at Huaqing University, there wouldn’t have been so many events.

“Whose little lady is this? She looks so lonely. Could she be waiting for her man?”

Just as Huangpu Xian’er felt disappointed and turned to leave, she suddenly heard a familiar voice. Her disappointment instantly transformed into ecstatic joy. Huangpu Xian’er lifted her eyes and met Xiao Yufan’s teasing gaze head-on.

Their eyes met, and a warm current surged from the bottom of Xiao Yufan’s heart. He naturally didn’t believe it was just a coincidence that he had encountered this woman at the entrance of the cold water ravine. Presumably, she had been coming here every day for a long time.

Their experiences together were few, yet their emotions were complex. Even now, Xiao Yufan couldn’t quite define what this feeling was, but one thing was certain: Huangpu Xian’er would definitely become his woman.

“Can’t I even wait for my own man? Besides, I’m waiting for a heartless one. Does he even know how worried I’ve been all this time?”

Tears glistened in the corners of Huangpu Xian’er’s eyes. Then, with light steps, she walked up to Xiao Yufan and leaned closely against his broad shoulder. In this moment of mutual affection, their hearts were completely entwined together.
