“Brother Yun,” Feng Xue’er said softly, “If you can’t see her again, will you really… be unhappy for the rest of your life?”

Yun Che shook his head and looked at Feng Xue'er and said, "With you all by my side, how can I not be happy? But if I do that, there will be a hole in my soul that can never be repaired. Back then, it was because of my hesitation and retreat that I lost the little fairy forever... I never want to endure something like this again."

“Little Demon Queen Sister, Sister Xue’er, let him go,” Su Ling’er whispered. She was the only one who had not spoken out against it from beginning to end.

"What's the point of us opposing him?" The Little Demon Queen said faintly, "No one can really stop him from doing what he is determined to do."

"I……"

Just as Yun Che was about to speak, the Little Demon Queen suddenly interrupted him, “Yun Che, I know I can’t stop you. You must know much more about what kind of place the God Realm is than we do. You are still determined to go, which means that for you, there is indeed a reason why you must go. As your woman, how can I stop you?”

Yun Che’s eyes moved slightly. He had not expected that the stubborn Little Demon Queen would actually agree to this. This made him feel warm in his heart, but also made him feel more guilty.

“But… you must promise me two things!” The Little Demon Queen’s voice suddenly turned cold, and every word she said was firm and unquestionable: “As long as you promise to do these two things, I will agree to the healing method you and Ling’er proposed, so that you can go to the God Realm with peace of mind. Otherwise…”

“Otherwise” Before she could finish the rest of the sentence, Yun Che had already gently embraced her from behind: “Cai Yi, I know that you will always tolerate my willfulness… I promise you first, this will be the last time I will be willful, this time no matter what you want me to do, I will agree to it.”

Tolerance? Do you think... do I really want to tolerate? The Little Demon Queen thought to herself... If your soul is damaged, it is not just your own defect...

“Okay… remember what you said.” The Little Demon Queen closed her eyes and tried her best to make her words colder and more resolute than ever before: “The first thing I want you to promise is—you must not die!!”

“…” Yun Che nodded slowly and said softly, “Caiyi, Xue’er, Ling’er, don’t worry. I am not going to the God Realm to pursue the way of the gods, nor to seek revenge on anyone. I just want to see my master again. There will be no danger. Moreover, I saved Mu Bingyun’s life. With the fate of Bingyun Immortal Palace, she will definitely protect and help me after she brings me to the God Realm. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to encounter danger. Therefore, you don’t need to worry too much… Okay, okay, I promise that after arriving in the God Realm, I will definitely not touch any dangerous things. After seeing my master, I will come back without a single hair missing.”

“That’s what you said when you returned to Profound Sky Continent from the Illusory Demon Realm.” The Little Demon Queen said coldly, “But when I saw you again, you were already half a corpse.”

“…” Yun Che was speechless, and after a long while he said awkwardly: “Then can I promise you again?”

“With your personality, what’s the point of making promises ten thousand times?” The Little Demon Queen said coldly, “I only hope that when you are about to take the risk, you can remember what I said today, think about your parents, your grandfather, your Cangyue, your Xue’er, your Ling’er, your Lingxi… and me. Think about how many people will suffer because of you if you die in the God Realm! And these are the people who care about you the most in this world.”

“I know.” Yun Che’s arms immediately tightened. Her words deeply touched his heart: “Over the years, I have made you worry again and again. However, this time is different from the past. Whether it is the Profound Sky Continent or the Illusory Demon Realm, there are too many things that I must desperately protect… including you. But I went to the God Realm just to see someone. After fulfilling my wish, I will come back immediately. I promise you that during this period, I will never take risks. I will definitely not get close to even possible dangers, okay?”

“Brother Yun, you must…must remember your promise.” Thinking of the upcoming separation, although Feng Xue’er had been trying her best to endure it, her eyes became increasingly red.

"The second thing." The Little Demon Queen took a deep breath, her already large chest rising and falling gently. "You just said that the Golden Crow Saint told you to see her within five years, otherwise there would be no chance of seeing her again. So... five years at most. Within five years, whether you have seen her or not, you must come back! Not even a day later!"

“Okay,” Yun Che agreed without hesitation: “I promise you, within five years, whether I find her or not, I will definitely come back!”

…………………………

After leaving the Demon Emperor Palace, the world was completely dark. Going to the God Realm was too important, and he might have to be away for several years. After telling the Little Demon Queen and the others, he also had to tell his parents, Cang Yue in Blue Wind Imperial City, Grandpa and Ling Xi in Floating Cloud City, and Xia Yuanba in the Royal Sacred Domain.

Beside him, Su Ling'er accompanied him.

“Ling’er, am I too selfish in this matter?” Yun Che asked with a sigh, because his decision alone would disrupt the mood and lives of everyone around him.

Su Ling'er smiled and shook her head, "Half a year ago, didn't you do something similar? That time, you forced yourself to go to Cangyun Continent for my sake, and in order not to make them worry, you hid it from everyone. Compared to this time, it seems even more 'selfish'. However, if it weren't for your 'selfishness', I might never meet you again in this life."

"Ling'er..."

“Brother Yun Che, you have so many people in your heart, but you are so serious and persistent towards each of them. That’s why they are willing to keep their hearts firmly tied to you. You are the same to your master, and I believe that she will never be as heartless to you as she showed when she left...Brother Yun Che, you must work hard in the God Realm, find your Master Jasmine as soon as possible, and then come back early. Every one of us will be waiting for you day and night.”

Su Ling'er smiled, but tears were hidden in her beautiful eyes. They had been separated for a lifetime, and finally met again under the reincarnation of fate, but only half a year later, they were facing separation again... She was more reluctant and worried than anyone else.

“Ling’er, thank you.” Yun Che felt an indescribable warmth in his heart.

“Between us, why should we say thank you?” Su Ling’er leaned against Yun Che’s chest and said softly.

“Ling’er, I want you to do something for me.” Yun Che looked ahead, his eyes becoming distant. “In two or three years at most, Xue’er’s profound strength will break through the Sovereign Profound Realm and achieve the true Divine Profound Realm. By that time, if I haven’t returned, she might go to the God Realm to look for me… At that time, you must help me persuade her to stay.”

Su Ling'er said softly, "Brother Yun Che, don't worry. Even if I wasn't there, Little Demon Queen would have persuaded her, and Sister Xue'er wouldn't have been so impulsive. Otherwise, they would have insisted on accompanying you to the God Realm... Although Master and Disciple Mu can only bring one more person, you can bring them along via the Primordial Profound Ark. Do you think they really haven't thought about this?"

"..." Yun Che lost his voice instantly.

“Hee,” Su Ling’er suddenly chuckled. “It’s not like Little Demon Queen and Xue’er don’t know how beautiful they are. One of them is the most beautiful woman in the Illusory Demon Realm, and the other is the most beautiful woman in the Profound Sky Continent. Even a girl like me is often fascinated by them. Men from the God Realm would go crazy if they saw them. If they accompanied you to the God Realm, it would be strange if they didn’t cause you countless troubles. It would actually be much safer if you went alone. Hmm… I suddenly wondered, when you come back, will you bring a few goddesses from the sky with you?”

“Hahaha, how is that possible?” Yun Che laughed.

“It’s very possible.” Su Ling’er looked at him, her sparkling eyes clearly revealing seriousness. “After all, my brother Yun Che is the best man in the world. Even the goddesses in heaven have never seen someone as perfect as my brother Yun Che. Maybe they will be completely fascinated by him. It seems that my parents, my sisters, and I should prepare ourselves early.”

“Hahahaha.” Yun Che hugged Su Ling’er tightly and laughed loudly. His mood immediately improved a lot.

…………………………

Yun Che solemnly informed everyone around him of his decision to go to the God Realm. There was still a month before he followed Mu Bingyun and his apprentice to leave. During this month, he stopped practicing and spent every day with his family and his beloved. At the same time, he would take one to two hours every day to help Mu Bingyun remove the poison.

Under the powerful purifying power of the Sky Poison Pearl, the thousand-year-old flame poison in Mu Bingyun's body weakened by a point every day, and it never spread again. From the fifth day on, Yun Che no longer needed to use the power of the Wild God as an aid. As Mu Bingyun's own profound strength slowly recovered, her body quickly generated more and more rich and powerful vitality.

"call!!"

On this day, Yun Che once again finished removing the poison from Mu Bingyun. He withdrew his hand and a flash of golden crow flame flashed on his body, burning away all the ice crystals condensed from the sweat on his body.

Mu Bingyun stood up from the ice bed, her eyes fixed on Yun Che. After a moment, she spoke slowly, “Without the Ice Phoenix blood and soul as a foundation, you forcibly cultivated the Ice Phoenix God-conferring Canon. This is already very unusual, and you also possess the power of the Golden Crow. Water and fire are contradictory and mutually exclusive, but not only have you integrated them into one, you can also control them so freely... It’s simply incredible.”

“…” Yun Che’s mind raced, trying to think of a reason to explain.

“If you want to achieve these two points, perhaps the legendary ‘Nine Profound Exquisite Body’ that appears once every tens of thousands of years and can transcend the boundaries of laws can do it. But the ‘Nine Profound Exquisite Body’ can only appear in a woman’s body…” Mu Bingyun looked at Yun Che with a slightly condensed look in her eyes: “Could it be that you have practiced dual cultivation with a woman who possesses the ‘Nine Profound Exquisite Body’?”

“Uh… maybe.” Yun Che evaded the question casually, but he groaned in his heart: My wife Qingyue possesses the “Nine Profound Exquisite Body”, I would like to… but she never lets me touch her!

The Moon...

Yun Che suddenly raised his head and asked, “Fairy Mu, where does the teleportation array you left at the Frozen End Temple take people to?”

Mu Bingyun heard this and shook her head slightly: "I don't know. A thousand years ago, because of the prediction of the Tianji Sect about the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace's 'Thousand Years of Great Disaster', I was afraid that the prediction would come true. In order to leave a ray of hope for the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace in the disaster, I released the power of the dimensional stone and cast that simple dimensional teleportation array, but I didn't specify the space to be teleported to, so I don't know where it will teleport people to. And with the power of the dimensional stone, it is enough to teleport people to extremely far places... Even to the God Realm, it is not impossible."

“I see.” Although he had known that this would most likely be the answer, Yun Che still felt disappointed.

Before I knew it, it has been more than five years since we last met. Qingyue, where are you now?
