..." He trailed off, unable to finish his sentence.Okay, these two little guys, one is cute and the other is goofy. They definitely seem like new people who are often bullied.So I'm still considered...Black clouds press down on the city, this feeling of impending doom is both frightening and oppressive.

I was carried to Yaquan by Jiang Qiyun. There were signs of artificial excavation, indicating that it was a hot spring with therapeutic effects. The spring mouth was surrounded by boulders, and there was an entrance made of stone slabs. A faint medicinal scent wafted from inside.

"Mu Wanchen painstakingly created this medicinal spring to minimize the damage caused by refining his natal gu. Most poisons can be treated here. Let's try it first. If it doesn't work, I'll take you to Miao Wang City." Jiang Qiyun unceremoniously stripped me naked and threw me in.

Here, the mist was swirling and there were stone slabs around the spring. I awkwardly crouched on the second slab, hugging my knees to my chest.

This big, my first time soaking in an onsen, and it's an outdoor one.

This made me a little nervous. Jiang Qiyun raised his hand, creating tiny points of light that covered the entire medicinal spring like fireflies, forming a dome above it.

He crouched by the spring, scooping up a handful of warm water and splashing it onto my shoulders. "Does it still hurt"

My shoulder and back skin have a large gray patch, and the color is getting darker. There wasn't much pain before, but now that he pours warm medicinal water over it, it immediately burns with heat.

I shrank my shoulders and hid, Jiang Qiyun's flowing sleeves were soaked through, he simply threw off his outer robe and jumped down.

"Mu Xiao Qiao, why are you hiding!" His voice held a hint of annoyance.

"...I thought you wouldn't get angry after sitting in meditation." I was lifted to the front of him by his grip on my back of the neck.

"That's for other people, you always find a way to make me angry," he muttered, clenching his hand tightly and squeezing my waist hard.

I don't want him to see the large patches of gray-black marks on my back. One is because it's unsightly, and the other is because I'm afraid he'll get angry.

But now I can only hide in his arms to feel safe.

"Now you're not afraid" he laughed, pulling me into his arms.

The stone slab in the warm water was pleasantly cool. Jiang Qiyun sat by the pond, letting me lean against his shoulder. One hand held me close, while the other gently rubbed medicinal spring water onto my wounded skin.

"...I'm still a little afraid, but you said that both body and heart breaking are beneficial to cultivation, so I might as well treat it as a magical test."I leaned against his chest, looking up at him with my head resting on his shoulder.

"There is no way without demons…all hardships and difficulties, all adversities, can be seen as demons…Just like your elder brother Mu Yunfan, wasn't he also breaking through demons" He chuckled softly.

My brother is quite bothered now. It's fine with the Shen and Mu families, but the Lin family... a whole bunch of wealthy and prestigious people. At the engagement banquet, when the Lin family came to show their support, an accident happened. Even if Lin Yanhun could use his strong-arm tactics to change their tune, it would still create resentment towards this marriage in their hearts.

The Lin family was just an "ordinary" family. Even if they had dealings with the Yin-Yang world, it was only as a boss and client. Suddenly, they were expected to become relatives with a prominent family in the Yin-Yang world. They couldn't adapt to this change for a while.

"Qi Yun..." I looked up at him and asked, "Have you ever seen the Book of Life and Death Is my brother's destined wife really Lin Yanqin There are so many people in this world who are fated but not meant to be. I'm a little worried..."

Jiang Qiyun lowered his eyes and looked at me: “ … I have no interest in watching. Knowing too much makes this era more boring. I don't want to be like the old men in the Sanqing Realm, who do nothing but dream for thousands of years.”

He hesitated for a moment, then said in a faint voice: "I don't even look at my own future."

What

He said that he could see a few steps ahead, but not dozens or hundreds of steps.

Every word, action, and choice is a chance encounter.

How to say, how to do, how to choose, this is what makes a life different.

"Why not watch"

"What's there to look at Before you, I knew what my days would be like; with you, I know what they will be like too."

I immediately sat up and asked, "What kind"

A faint smile played at the corner of his lips: "For so many years, I didn't need to recite tranquility. Being with you, every day I have to remind myself not to forget tranquility."

Foreheads touching, his fingers traced the faint mark on my chest.

I smiled and reminded him: “...... A person who can remain pure in mind will find everything in heaven and earth returning to them.”

He chuckled lightly and shook his head, "Difficult. Even the Highest One who has forgotten all emotions can't forget yours. So, the best way is to seek tranquility together."

He paused for a moment, adding, "Let me see you try to flirt with me again. Go practice your skills!"

Pffft…

It's not my fault, you started it! Don't you know how to be reasonable!

The air was thick with steam, the scent of herbs intoxicating. The warm medicinal spring infused him with a sudden heat.

This is not our Pure Land of Bliss, no need for heaven-on-earth love…

Jiang Qiyun has much better willpower than me. Looking at my face, he leaned in and whispered into my ear, "Why are you so red I'm trying to calm you down, but you still can't resist being teased..."

Not your doing again.

I obediently came down and squatted on the stone slab below, letting the medicinal spring cover me.

"Where's Lord Zhulong" I asked, blowing bubbles.

“......Master” Jiang Qiyun gave me a hint of approval for that title: “An ancient artifact, it was already difficult to summon him. After incinerating the demonic malice and evil energy, he returned.”

"Where is the Star Official of That Planetary System"

"He, he said he wanted to check that old hag was truly gone, turned to dust. He's cleaning up the battlefield now." Jiang Qiyun's voice held a barely perceptible hint of admiration.

Ji Dou has a bad temper, but he's someone you can't hate. Even after fighting with Jiang Qiyun for so many years, Jiang Qiyun is still so "used to" him.

"Qiyun, if there's nothing here for me, I want to go see my brother..."

He glared at me: “Be honest for an hour and then talk!”

Okay, okay, let's just leave this to the father.

When my fingertips turned as white as snow from soaking for so long, Jiang Qiyun finally allowed me to stand up. He held me and took me to Xiwangge, where he inspected me before taking me to my brother's private hospital.the street.Black mist, like a curtain drawn on a scene of terror, descended. The shadows moving beneath the archway grew closer, and through the gaps in the fur I could make them out: two figures.Peop...
