With the amount of commotion the Sword of the High King caused, there was no way He Ku and Yun Ce could ignore it. In fact, the moment the white bear first arrived, Yun Ce trembled and proceeded to miserably tell He Ku that his little martial uncle had come.

Ordinarily, this airhead acted as if he were unafraid of anything, daring to even make trouble in front of He Huan. The only exception was to this so-called 'little martial uncle'. He Ku felt a spark of curiosity suddenly emerge towards what kind of person could inspire such a reaction. He Huan was promptly awoken by their presence, thus he ordered Yun Ce to continue their pursuit while he went to assess the fight.

Their body was handed over to He Huan, and the two of them just so happened to see this good show while hiding on the rooftop. He looked at the young prince's bright eyes and pearly teeth, then thought about the way Yun Ce typically held himself and couldn't help but sigh. Did these two foxes really come from the same burrow? How could they be so far apart in bearing?

He Ku naturally wasn't able to hide his line of sight from He Huan. Seeing He Ku, a person who usually had no interest in men, look at Bai Chen with such a thoughtful expression as he appraised him, even gasping in surprise and sighing at times, He Huan frowned slightly. Bai Chen's face really was irresistible to young and inexperienced men, and even he preferred this type. There was no way He Ku was that far off from him. Could it be that this detour had caused him to develop a crush?

Since Bai Chen appeared, He Ku's gaze had never left him. The more He Huan saw this, the more suspicious he felt. He squinted his eyes and asked nonchalantly, "Is Bai Chen your type?"

He Huan, this old porn addict, was usually full of innuendos whenever he talked, and at this point, He Ku had long been used to his random interjections. He, therefore, dismissed this as just He Huan showing interest in Bai Chen. This caused him to scrutinize that white fox even more meticulously than before, and couldn't help comparing him to Yun Ce's constant badgering to dual cultivate, which always ended with him getting kicked out of the room. The idea that one's face determined their destiny further cemented in his heart and he became furthermore emotional. "This is what a real fox spirit should be like."

...Was he really so entranced that he couldn't even bother turning his head to talk to him?

Back then, Bu Qingyun had rules to restrict him, so naturally, he wouldn't spare a single look at a beauty. However, He Huan mused that with his current attitude towards such things, it really was hard to say how he would have been as a teenager without those rules. He thought back to how He Ku would always accept his spontaneous skinship, demonstrating he clearly wasn't averse to being intimate with the same sex and became increasingly sure that He Ku was in love.

He knew He Ku was different from himself. Oftentimes, what a young man desired in his first love was to spend the rest of his life with his lover, but if he indeed chose Bai Chen... Such a brief episode in his inevitably immortal life would only cause him pain.

At the thought of how heartbroken He Ku would be in a hundred years, He Huan's heart clenched. He couldn't help sighing. "You Jiang is also pretty good in terms of appearance. How come I don't see you showing an interest in him?"

He Ku didn't know that this one glance of his had He Huan coming up with a whole romantic tragedy. When he heard what He Huan said, he just shook his head. "Don't even mention it. The second your second enforcer sees me, all he talks about is going out to assassinate some righteous faction's sect leader or whatever. I'm in a hurry to run away from him, where would I find the time to appreciate his face?"
