ATG: My genius is almost frightening!

Chu Yuechan closed her eyes, and after a few moments, ice began to emerge beneath her feet, freezing the ground. The ice spread rapidly, and in no time, it covered a radius of several kilometers, freezing everything in its path—earth, trees, and even beasts.

Swoosh!

A gust of wind swept through, and the frozen trees and beasts shattered into icy dust.

Right after, the dust gathered into multiple icy shards the size of one meter.

Boom!

Rumble!

The shards launched at the nearby mountain, creating thunderous explosions. Dust and debris flew everywhere, shrouding the mountain in clouds of dust.

When the dust settled, a huge chunk of the mountain was gone!

She pointed at the mountain, and everything in that direction started to freeze, forming a straight path. When the ice reached the mountain, it transformed into an icy peak. The most terrifying part was, the whole process took less than half a minute.

"You actually did it!" she exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement. After trying the new Frozen Cloud Arts, she found it was five times stronger and had no negative effects. Overjoyed she forgot herself and ran to him and hugged him tightly.

"It's good that you like it," Yun Wuji smiled, seeing her happy expression.

"You've helped so much, I really don't know how to repay you," she said, looking at him. Without her veil, her features were absolutely exquisite: clear eyes, slender eyebrows, and pearly skin.

Gazing at her up close, he became dazed. Chu Yuechan was already a kingdom-toppling beauty, and since he hadn't yet seen Qianye Ying'er or Jasmin, to him right now she was the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on.

"Don't worry, I know how you can repay me." He lifted her chin and kissed her without giving her time to react.

Chu Yuechan's eyes widened briefly, then she closed them and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly.

After a while, their lips parted, and Yun Wuji looked at her with a faint smile. He was happy she hadn't resisted; it meant she also had feelings for him.

Chu Yuechan's face was red as fire, panicked and shy. "You...you...why are you doing this...?"

"Hmm, you don't like it?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I didn't mean that, it's just too sudden," she said, lowering her head and burying her face in his chest. She was too embarrassed to look at him.

Since losing her memories, Yun Wuji was the only person by her side. His company provided her with a sense of warmth and safety in a world where everyone and everything was strange to her. It was only natural for her to feel attached to him.

She didn't have the courage to change their relationship, and she also liked how things were between them right now.

Yun Wuji also understood her current mental state and decided to make the first move. He was a man and should be the one taking the initiative.

He also feared that she might regain her memories and distance herself.

"Good," He then kissed her once again.

-----

In a quiet, remote street of New Moon City, the very air seemed to tremble as Yun Wuji and Little Fairy suddenly appeared.

"We've run out of spices. There's a branch of the Black Moon Merchant Guild here; maybe we can find something good," Yuechan pestered Yun Wuji, eager for him to cook something delicious. She had eaten so much that they had exhausted all the unique spices he usually kept stocked. They had come to the nearest city to replenish their supplies.

However, Yun Wuji's spices were not typical; they were special and not easily found. Fortunately, the Black Moon Merchant Guild branch here was conveniently close to the Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range. With a quick teleportation, they had arrived at the city.

"Black Moon Merchant Guild? That name sounds familiar..." When she heard it, she placed her hand on her chin and pondered for a moment, sensing a hint of familiarity.

"The Black Moon Merchant Guild is the largest merchant guild chain in the Profound Sky Continent. They have an excellent reputation, and it's said you can buy anything that can be brought with money," Yun Wuji explained. "You probably heard about them before you lost your memories."

"Is that so," Yuechan nodded. However, she quickly pushed aside her thoughts and urged him, "Hurry up, I want to eat burgers!"

"..."

Yuechan didn't like being the center of attention, so when they arrived in the city, they teleported to a remote place a bit farther from the Merchant Guild.

"Look at that woman, she's so beautiful!"

"Even with the veil, I can tell she's a beautiful woman."

"That man is also quite handsome."

"What's that glowing thing around him? Trying to look cool?"

"A handsome bastard trying to show off!"

Wuji and Yuechan's looks are both very outstanding. Despite her veil, Yuechan radiated an undeniable allure that effortlessly caught the eye of everyone around them.

As they strolled through the city, many couldn't resist stopping to steal glances at them.

Soon, they came upon a building. Its gate bore a logo of a black waning moon.

"Welcome, customer. I'm Jun Wu. Are you here to sell or buy?" As they entered the guild, the middle-aged man with a goatee greeted them promptly. His sharp eyes quickly discerned that both of them were important figures.

"I want to buy water spirit crystals, leaves from the Black Death Tree..." Yun Wuji listed several other ingredients to him.

"Esteemed customer, we have all of them except for the water spirit crystal," Jun Wu said, rubbing his hands. The items Yun Wuji requested were rare and expensive, prompting him to show even more respect.

"Alright, give me whatever stock you have of them," Wuji nodded. He was wealthy enough not to bother asking about the price and ordered all the available stock directly.

The Merchant Guild lived up to its reputation. This was only a branch, yet it had nearly everything he wanted. For a moment, he was tempted to raid their main branch.

"Right away, sir!" Jun Wu immediately instructed the servants to prepare the order.

"Please come back again, dear customers!" After paying, he collected the ingredients and left with Chu Yuechan. Jun Wu personally saw them off.

"Stop right there!"

Just as they were about to teleport back to the Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range, someone suddenly stopped them.

"Beauty, my young master is interested in you come with us!" The one who stopped them was a muscular man. He arrogantly ignored Yun Wuji and demanded that Chu Yuechan follow him to a luxurious carriage where his master awaited.

"..." Yuechan.

"What..." Seeing that she didn't move, the man was about to use force when suddenly ice began to spread from his legs all the way to his head. In a split second, he became an ice statue.

Yuechan didn't spare him a glance. She held Wuji's hand and walked past him.

The statue shattered into tiny pieces. Until his death, he never knew just how terrifying the person he provoked was.

"Stop right there! Ignorant fools, you dare to kill my servant!" The man inside the carriage leaped out, furious. No one in New Moon City dared to defy him, and yet these two had the audacity to oppose him!

"Oh, interesting~" Yun Wuji, who had been silent this whole time, looked at the man with interest. Although he had lived in this world for a long time, this was the first time he had encountered a 'Young Master'.

"Ignorant fool! Don't you know who I am?! Kneel and lick my shoes, and perhaps I'll spare your life!" the young master shouted, pointing at Wuji. The moment he saw him, a surge of killing intent rose in his heart. What he hated most were people who were more handsome than him!

He wanted to humiliate him in front of his woman before killing him!

"Who may you be?" Yun Wuji asked with a harmless smile, similar to the one he wore when he massacred the members of The Sword Unity Sect.

"Listen, young master is the son of the elder of the Xiao Sect!" a servant interjected proudly, adept at timing his words to enhance his master's prestige.

"An insect from a branch of a tiny sect. I truly don't know who gave you the courage to jump in front of me," Yun Wuji shook his head in disdain. It was a wonder how these tiny sects could last so long with their descendants provoking random people so recklessly.

"You! You are courting death!" The young master, who had been expecting to see their terrified faces, became furious instead.

'I know he would say that!'
