[Surprisingly, Bai Xichu didn’t bother explaining Bu Haoyan’s nonsensical remarks.]
[She simply turned and left.]
[Seeing this, Ye Yu couldn’t help but frown slightly.]
[He slowly released his grip on Bu Haoyan’s mouth.]
[Poor Sect Master of Heavenly Dragon Cliff.]
[His entire face was severely distorted, and he had to painstakingly massage it back into shape with his hands.]
[With a resentful look, Bu Haoyan complained, “Sir, why are you so tense?”]
[“Weren’t you already living together before? Calling her ‘Madam’ seems perfectly reasonable!”]
[At this point, it must be said:]
[Sir is truly remarkable.]
[Even the Demon Lord herself couldn’t resist him—impressive!]
[Hearing this, Ye Yu felt utterly exasperated.]
[Some things truly defied explanation, but he couldn’t just stand by and watch Bu Haoyan continue digging his own grave.]
[Thus, Ye Yu sternly forbade him from ever calling Bai Xichu “Madam” again,]
[and warned him against making wild guesses about their relationship.]
[Wait a minute.]
[Why did he feel a sudden warmth in his chest at the mention of Bai Xichu?]
[Three days later,]
[Ye Yu discovered something amiss.]
[A woman’s visage had inexplicably appeared on his chest.]
[The face was none other than Bai Xichu’s!]
[Startled, Ye Yu rubbed at it with his hand, but it wouldn’t come off.]
[Realizing it was likely related to the Succubus Mark,]
[he began poring through ancient texts in search of answers.]
[Eventually, he found a record about the Succubus Mark in an old manuscript.]
[It stated that when the mark-bearer deeply yearns for their beloved,]
[the beloved’s image would manifest on the bearer’s chest.]
[The stronger the yearning, the clearer the image would become.]
[Staring at Bai Xichu’s face on his chest,]
[Ye Yu felt momentarily dazed.]
[Could it be that Bai Xichu had fallen for him?]
[Once this thought emerged, it became impossible to suppress.]
[Reflecting on his time spent with Bai Xichu,]
[Ye Yu couldn’t help but feel a rush of warmth in his heart.]
[Without further hesitation,]
[he sought out information and made his way to the Demon Hall.]
[There, he found Bai Xichu seated on her throne.]
[Without a word, he showed her the mark on his chest.]
[Bai Xichu’s delicate face flushed slightly.]
[Feigning calm, she said, “Oh? What’s this about?”]
[Ye Yu wasted no time, pulling out the ancient manuscript and placing it in front of her.]
[Seeing this,]
[Bai Xichu immediately understood that Ye Yu had likely figured everything out, which was why he had come.]
[She was at a loss for words.]
[The word “yearning” in the text felt like a sharp blade piercing her heart,]
[leaving her utterly powerless.]
[Indeed,]
[these past few days, Bai Xichu had been unable to stop thinking about Ye Yu.]
[But she didn’t know how to approach him.]
[She didn’t want to pressure him in any way,]
[nor would she use the Succubus Mark to force him to reciprocate her feelings.]
[Bai Xichu was a Demon Lord; she didn’t need love born of pity.]
[For this reason,]
[she had been suppressing her feelings all along.]
[Until now.]
