"Hehe~ It's so warm and comfortable~" The little girl closed her eyes, enjoying the gentle head pat. After a moment, as if realizing his question, she tilted her head, thinking deeply. Finally, she looked up at him with a grin and said, "Name? Ughh... I don't know! Does Big Brother know?"
Yun Wuji already knew the character of the girl, so he wasn't surprised by her weird response. Instead, he asked, "You don't remember your name? Then... do you know where your home is? Who your parents are?"
"Wuaaahhhhhh..." The girl stretched with a yawn and shook her head firmly. "Of course, I don't know! I completely don't remember!"
"Sigh, another crazy one," Jasmine covered her forehead and sighed.
Her sigh caught the little girl's attention. The young girl's eyes lit up, sparkling like stars. "Wahhhhh! Big sis, your clothes are so pretty! They're red! Red... I love red!!!"
"..." Jasmine.
Before Jasmine could reply, the little girl's attention shifted to the Coffin of Eternity. She softly said, "Waaah! What a beautiful crystal bed! Was this where I was sleeping? It's so pretty... But it's so hard, it's not really comfortable. Big brother, can you carry me out? The crystal bed is so tall, if I climb out, it'll ruin my image as a beautiful young lady."
"Should I?" Yun Wuji tilted his head, asking playfully. After spending so much time with Hei Xiaolian, he knew exactly how to handle energetic little girls like her.
"Yes! Big brother, carry me out, pleaseee? Pleaseee?" The young girl nodded vigorously, her eyes flashing as she spoke in the most pitiful tone.
"Alright, miss beautiful young lady," Yun Wuji chuckled, extending his hands to lift her out of the crystal coffin and set her down outside.
"Wahh... so comfortable!" The girl stretched out with a big yawn, then looked up at Yun Wuji, her ruby-like eyes sparkling. "Big brother, where are we gonna play? This place looks so fun!"
"We can play later, after we leave this place, okay?" Yun Wuji patted her head with his hand, glowing with white light, as he spoke.
"Master, you're so biased! You never treated me with such care!" Hei Xiaolian pouted, feeling wronged.
"Guuuuu..."
A strange sound came from the girl as she began touching her stomach with her small hand. Her previously excited expression quickly faded. "Umm... I'm suddenly very hungry..." she said, then turned to look at Yun Wuji. "Big brother, I'm suddenly very hungry. Do you have anything nice to eat?"
"Here, take this," Yun Wuji said, pulling out a profound sky-grade sword and handing it to her.
"Yay, thank you, Big Brother!" She took the sword and bit it with her small teeth, easily sinking into it like a soft cake.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
"Delicious... So delicious!!" she exclaimed.
"What the fuck?" Jasmine's eyes widened in astonishment as she looked at the girl, and then glanced at Yun Wuji.
"She's a Celestial Spirit from the Ancient Era who can transform into a sword, that's why she feeds on swords," Yun Wuji explained, still gazing at Hong'er.
"Big brother is so smart!" The little girl quickly finished the sword and took his hand, which was glowing with light. "My sword is very big, do you wanna see it?"
"Wording, mind your wording, please," Jasmine said, black lines appearing on her forehead.
"Yes, I'm quite curious," Yun Wuji nodded.
A crimson-red light suddenly radiated from the little girl's body. Within the light, she slowly floated up in the air, and her entire figure was completely enveloped by red light.
After the dispersal of the red light, the little girl's figure had completely disappeared, her what appeared in their eyes, was a crimson red odd-shaped gigantic sword!!
The sword was a deep crimson, covered in messy red inscriptions with a faint red glow. Over nine feet long. The hilt was straight and bulky, with the base of the blade spanning over two feet in width. As it tapered toward the tip, the blade became narrower and ended in a sharp, cold, crimson point.
At the center of the sword's hilt, a marble about seventeen to eighteen centimeters in diameter was embedded, containing the little girl inside.
On each side of the core pearl, two words were imprinted in deep red, matching the patterns on the blade. One side read "Devil Slayer," and the other, "Heaven Smiting."
The Heaven Smiting Devil Slayer Sword!
"Heaven Smiting?! Could it be?!" Jasmine's expression changed drastically, a mix of shock and confusion crossing her face. She turned to Yun Wuji, but his face remained expressionless.
Yun Wuji walked up to the sword, placed his hand on the hilt, and casually grabbed it.
He lifted the sword with ease, swinging it through the air. The blade left behind a scarlet trajectory, a slash cutting through the space.
"Jasmine, help me—" Yun Wuji began to transmit to her to use the Soul Star Relegation, but before he could finish, Jasmine's voice suddenly echoed in his mind through soul transmission.
"Quick, drop your blood onto the sword... A drop is sufficient!" Her voice surprisingly was more anxious than his.
Yun Wuji was momentarily surprised by her shout, but he didn't hesitate. He quickly condensed a drop of blood from the tip of his finger and let it fall onto the scarlet greatsword.
As soon as the drop of blood touched the scarlet greatsword, Jasmine, standing behind Yun Wuji, quickly clasped her hands together, forming a strange hand seal. A deep, blood-red glow flashed from the center of her palm.
At that instant, the blood dripping down the sword halted, sinking into the core of the blade, where it vanished completely.
"Ehh? Why do I feel so weird?"
The girl sounded slightly confused as the scarlet greatsword flashed with red light and vanished. She reappeared, landing gracefully, and looked up at Yun Wuji, asking, "Big brother, why do I feel so weird?"
"Where do you feel weird?" Yun Wuji asked, his voice gentle.
"I don't know, I just feel... weird." She looked up at him with a serious expression before adding, "Ugh, I seem to like you more! Being liked by a super beauty like me, do you feel happy?"
"...Damn it, I can't even punish her with food," Yun Wuji's face darkened. He looked at her and said, "Little girl, don't talk nonsense. Little beauties who say things like that aren't cute."
"Really?" The little girl tilted her head, murmuring in wonder, then frowned and said, "Don't call me little girl. It doesn't sound nice at all!"
"What should I call you then?"
"Call... Call... Call me little beauty!"
"...You really don't remember your name?"
"Of course not, I already said I don't!"
"Then... How about I give you a name?"
"Name me?" The girl's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Okay, okay! But it has to be a nice and cute name that I like!"
"You have beautiful red hair, red eyes, and red clothes, so I'll call you Hong'er," Yun Wuji smiled at her and said.
"Hong'er... Hong'er... Hong'er... Hong'er..." The girl repeated the name several times, her eyes sparkling even brighter. She replied in high spirits, "Then, call me Hong'er next time... Hehe! I have a name! Hong'er, Hong'er... Next time, don't call me little girl, or little brat, not even little beauty. You can only call me Hong'er!"
"Hong'er, will you be very bored if you stay alone here?" Yun Wuji patted her head and asked.
"Hmm, it's very boring. I won't have anyone to have fun with, and I won't have any food!" Hong'er blinked her red eyes and rubbed her head against his hand like a kitten. She felt incredibly comfortable touching his hand, which was coated in a soft white light.
"Then do you want to go with me? If you let me use your sword, I'll play with you often and give you plenty of food every day," Yun Wuji said with a warm smile.
"Really? I'll have as much food as I want? And I can have fun too?" Hong'er blinked in surprise and asked.
"Right, I'll play with you, and this beautiful big sister will also play with you," Yun Wuji nodded, coaxing her.
"Hmph!" Jasmine blushed when she heard him call her beautiful and snorted.
"I want it, I want to go with you!" Hong'er eagerly held his hand and nodded her head.
"Alright, but you must be obedient to me in the future. If I want you to transform into a sword, you must do it, alright?" Yun Wuji looked at the innocent little girl and said.
"Hmm, Hong'er is the most obedient!" she replied proudly.
"Close your eyes, and for the next twenty seconds, no matter what I do to you, you're not allowed to resist! Simple, right?" Yun Wuji bent slightly, revealing a gentle smile as he spoke with an incomparable softness.
"Hmm, twenty seconds? Alright," Hong'er blinked her eyes. She found his request a bit strange, but the white light felt so warm and gentle. She didn't sense anything bad from him, so she quickly agreed.
As she closed her eyes, Yun Wuji condensed a blood pearl at the tip of his finger and gently tapped it to the center of Hong'er's forehead. In an instant, a small-scaled Contracted Profound Seal appeared at the center of her forehead.
After the Profound Contracted Seal, infused with Yun Wuji's drop of blood, rotated three times at the center of Hong'er's forehead, it entered her forehead with flawless success and completely disappeared.
In that short moment, a spiritual connection with Hong'er appeared in his soul with unparalleled clarity.

A red light flashed on the back of Yun Wuji's left hand as a red profound imprint slowly formed, about an inch long. The shape of the mark was a miniature version of the Heaven Smiting Devil Slayer Sword.
Throughout the entire process, the spirit guarding her never appeared, it seemed like she had truly faded from existence. Perhaps it was the Light Profound Energy around him that made her feel at ease.
His Light Profound Energy could easily make most people in the God Realm lower their guard around him.
After forming a contract with Hong'er, Yun Wuji easily took control of the Primordial Profound Ark. With it in hand, he returned to the Blue Pole Star.

A few days later, a grand celebration unfolded in the Demon Imperial City, drawing all the influential figures from both continents. Sacred grounds, guardian families, duke palaces, city lords, and other powerful cultivators gathered to attend it.
The entire city seemed to come alive as influential leaders, renowned experts, and esteemed allies gathered to honor a momentous occasion, the 22nd anniversary of their Lord and Savior Fang Yu...cough I mean Yun Wuji. The streets were adorned with banners and colorful decorations, while the air buzzed with excitement and eager conversations.
Yun Wuji usually spent his anniversary with his women and close friends, like the Yun Clan. But this time, when Chu Yuechan, Huan Caiyi, and the others found out he was planning to leave the Blue Pole Star for a while, they decided to throw him a big celebration.
So that everyone in the world would remember him, even while he was away.
At the same time, a smaller celebration was taking place in the Yun Palace. It was just Yun Wuji, his wives, and Jasmine, who, strangely enough, had taken the initiative to join them. Normally, she wouldn't even spare a glance at any other living being on this planet much less share a seat with them.
In the main hall, Yun Wuji sat at the head of the table, with Chu Yuechan on his right and Huan Caiyi on his left, while the others took their places nearby.
Jasmine sat across from him, with little Hei Xiaolian by her side. Although the two bickered every day, they surprisingly shared a close relationship.
For the larger celebration in the Demon Imperial City, Yun Wuji sent his Heretic God body to attend and entertain the guests, while he remained at the smaller birthday party in the Yun Palace.
"Happy birthday, husband!" Murong Qianxue was the first to congratulate him, a charming smile lighting up her beautiful face.
The other women followed suit, their voices warm and filled with affection. "Happy birthday, husband! May you live for eternity!"
"Happy birthday, honey," Huan Caiyi added from his left. Leaning in, she gave him a deep kiss on the lips and whispered softly.
"Not fair! I wanted to kiss Wuji too," Feng Hanyue said with a pout, crossing her arms in protest.
"Thank you, my beloveds," Yun Wuji said with a warm smile, his eyes filled with affection. Then, glancing around, he chuckled and asked playfully, "So, where are my gifts?"
Chu Yuechan responded with a soft smile, "It's a secret. You'll have to wait a little longer to see it."
"Really? How intriguing!" Yun Wuji said, his curiosity piqued. "Now I'm all hyped up," he added with a hint of excitement.
All their previous "gifts" had been 'unmatched', so he was rather looking forward to this one as well.
Gong Yuxian stood up and said, "You stay here while we finish preparing your gift. We'll call you when it's ready."
"But no peeking!" Mu Lanyi warned.
"Right, right! No peeking, Wuji!" Feng Hanyue added, her expression serious.
"Alright, I won't peek, I won't peek," Yun Wuji laughed and promised.
And like that, all his wives left the main hall, to prepare his 'gift'.
The only ones left in the hall were Yun Wuji, Jasmine, and Hei Xiaolian, who was eagerly devouring the food in front of her.
"Hey you, hiccup! You must be enjoying your life with so many beauties around you, hiccup!" Jasmine suddenly raised her head, her face flushed red as she spoke with some difficulty, holding a cup of wine in her hand.
"Are you drunk?" Yun Wuji stared at her in surprise, then asked, "You're only 15! Who gave you the alcohol?"
"I am not drunk! I am not drunk! I just wanted to try some wine, what's the big deal?!" Jasmine said angrily. "And I'm your master too! It's not your place to tell me what to do!"
'All according to keikaku!' Hei Xiaolian stopped eating and glanced at them both with narrowed eyes. Half an hour ago, it was she who had tricked Jasmine into drinking the alcohol.
'So what if you're a Divine Master, hehehe, compared to me, you're still too green,' Hei Xiaolian sneered to herself as she turned back to her plate.
"Sigh," Yun Wuji let out a helpless sigh, standing up and walking over to her. "Let me take you somewhere to rest."
"Hiccup...Don't treat me like a kid...Hiccup...I'm a grown woman!" Jasmine snapped as Yun Wuji's hand landed on her shoulder. She grabbed his arm and said, "You've always called me flat! Look right at me, I dare you to call me flat again." With that, she boldly placed his hand on her chest.
"WTF?" Yun Wuji's eyes widened, and his body stiffened in shock, but he quickly recovered and growled, "Hey, stop right now! Let go!" He tried to pull his hand away, but Jasmine's grip was far stronger than his, and he couldn't budge.
"No! I won't! Hiccup!" Jasmine refused, pushing him to the side and forcing him against the wall.
'Shit! Maybe I screw up!' Hei Xiaolian's eyes widened, her mouth forming an 'O' as the piece of cake she had just bitten fell from her mouth. She stared in shock at Jasmine's outrageous action.
'I'm actually getting pushed down, by a little girl? I, Yun Wuji, getting pushed down?!!!' Yun Wuji struggled fiercely but to no avail. The gap between him and a Divine Master was just too big. He stopped struggling and, with a fierce glare, shouted, "Fuck! Jasmine, you're drunk! Stop this farce right now!"
"Hiccup... Yun Wuji, let's... Hiccup... play the rape game," Jasmine's face moved closer, her nose brushing his as she spoke with a flushed expression.
"I told you to stop!"
"Hehe, that's the spirit! Hiccup!" she said, leaning in and planting a kiss on his lips.
"...!!!" Yun Wuji's entire body froze. He couldn't believe it, she had actually pinned him down and kissed him!
He had never, ever imagined that Jasmine would do something this brazen! He had never seen her as a potential love interest; to him, she was just a friend or even a little sister. Even after she "grew up," he never thought of her in that way.
A few years ago, when Yun Wuji first came into contact with the characters in the novel, he had appreciated and liked them, but mostly viewed them as targets he could conquer. This mentality lingered in his mind for a while, but as he spent more time with them, that mindset gradually began to change. He started to see them as equals and eventually came to truly love them.
*Chu Yuechan is an exception.*
If there were a gauge to measure love, his wives would undoubtedly score 100/100, and he would score 99/100 for each of them.
Because of that, he never thought of Jasmine as someone he needed to conquer. To him, she was his friend and a portable Divine Master. He didn't have any romantic feelings for her and didn't want to develop them either, because she wasn't his type. No matter how beautiful she was, in the end, she was a tsundere.
Unlike Huan Caiyi, who was a tsundere and a kuudere, Jasmine's tsundere tendencies never really changed over the years. Huan Caiyi, however, eventually changed, moving past her initial tsundere behavior.
He never brought her the 'Smoky Red Fairy Dress' or any other gifts he knew she would love. He also never sweet-talked her like Yun Che or tried to take advantage of her to get closer, because he never entertained the idea of romancing her.
At that moment, he felt her small tongue brushing against his lips, as if trying to gently parry them. When he opened his mouth to speak, her tongue slipped inside, clumsily exploring.
Jasmine's breathing grew rough, and she closed her eyes, greedily savoring the feeling of the kiss. However, at that moment, she suddenly felt a calm and soothing aura spreading through her entire body. The feeling of intoxication and dizziness began to rapidly fade away.
Yun Wuji used his Light Profound Energy to offset her intoxication, gradually sobering her up.
"Ehh? Wh...what did I do, ahhh!" As she regained her senses, Jasmine's eyes shot wide open. The flush on her face quickly turned to paleness. She let go of Yun Wuji and jumped away from him.
"You..." Yun Wuji straightened his clothes, which had become wrinkled. He was about to scold her when suddenly, Jasmine let out a shrill, "AHHHHHH!" and turned into a streak of light, fleeing away.
"How troublesome. I'll talk to her later when she calms down," Yun Wuji muttered, not bothering to chase after her. He knew he wouldn't be able to catch up even if he tried. Shaking his head, he walked back to his seat.
At that moment, he received a transmission from Murong Qianxue, telling him to come to his bedroom to get his 'present.'
"Hehehe, let's see what this present is," Yun Wuji chuckled, pushing the matter with Jasmine out of his mind as he headed to his room to see what birthday surprise awaited him.
"Happy Birthday, Husband!"
As Yun Wuji pushed open the door to his room, he was greeted by 17 stunning beauties dressed in skimpy, revealing dancing outfits that barely covered their chests and lower parts. They all smiled seductively at him, swaying their waists in unison as they greeted him.
*Cang Yue, Chu Yuechan, Chu Yueli, Feng Hanyue, Feng Hanxue, Feng Qianhui, Gong Yuxia, Murong Qianque, Huan Caiyi, Jun Lianqie, Mu Lanyi, Mu Lingxue, Shui Wushuang, Wu Xuexin, Xia Qingyue, Xiao Lingxi, Xuanyuan Yufeng.*
"Do you like your birthday present, honey?" Xuanyuan Yufeng twisted her body, shaking her alluring curves as she asked with a knowing smile.
"Hehehe, very much! I like it very much!" Yun Wuji laughed loudly, closing the door behind him.
*Let me know if you'd like me to write a lemons chapter for this.*
That night, Yun Wuji thoroughly enjoyed his birthday present. However, a month later, he faced a problem that not only disrupted all his future plans but could very well alter his destiny as well...
