"Mother, this was an accident," Yu Chuan said, shaking his hand.

He just wanted to test the power of the Crimson Divine Fire, but he never expected it to get out of control so quickly.

Shu Jianyue glared at him, glanced at the charred bedchamber, and asked with a hint of heartache, "Husband, can it be repaired?"

Chong Jiu nodded, "Okay."

"That's good." Shu Jianyue breathed a sigh of relief, tapped Yu Chuan on the forehead and said, "Be careful next time. If you want to practice fire control, find a place closer to water."

"At least if you catch fire, you can jump in to save yourself."

“Mother, the Crimson Flame can’t burn me,” Yu Chuan said with a blank face.

If they could burn him, wouldn't he have made the contract for nothing?

Shu Jianyue knew perfectly well that he was just teasing him. She turned to Lou Qiongshang and said, "Congratulations on successfully entering the Celestial Immortal Realm. You're getting closer and closer to your goal now."

Lou Qiongshang smiled and nodded. "Thank you."

Shu Jianyue nodded and looked at Chong Jiu, saying, "Let's go, we'll deliver the gifts to Yin Yue and then set off."

"Setting off? Mother, where are you and Father going? Can I come along?" Yu Chuan asked, leaning closer.

Shu Jianyue looked at Chong Jiu; whether or not to bring it was up to him.

Chong Jiu shook his head. "You stay on Zunlong Peak and are not allowed to wander around."

Yu Chuan's face immediately fell, and then he pulled Shu Jianyue and said in a coquettish tone, "Just stay with you and don't wander off, take me with you."

The vein on Chongjiu's forehead throbbed. "Where did you learn that? Believe me or not, I'll make sure you look like this from now on."

Yu Chuan immediately let go and retreated behind Yan Xi.

Shu Jianyue coughed lightly and said, "Listen to your father. He's concerned about your safety. We don't know if Yicheng is safe now."

"How about you stay inside the space? If it's safe, then I'll let you out?"

Yu Chuan nodded with a pout, there was nothing else he could do.

Shu Jianyue put Yu Chuan into her spatial storage and looked at Yan Xi and Lou Qiongshang, asking, "What about you two? Do you want to go in?"

Lou Qiongshang looked at Yan Xi, and it was clear that if Yan Xi went, he would go too.

Yan Xi thought for a moment and then nodded. Since staying at Zunlong Peak was the same as staying in the space, she might as well go in with her brother.

As soon as they went inside, Shu Jianyue simply sent Shu Wangtian and Si Huaijin in with them, so as not to leave them bored on this Dragon Peak.

Shu Jianyue handed the prepared gifts to Yin Yue, asking him to deliver them and also pass on a few words. After saying this, she and Chong Jiu left the Spirit Beast Sect and flew towards Yicheng.

When they were almost at Yicheng, Chongjiu stopped.

Shu Jianyue glanced at him sideways. "What's wrong?"

“There’s something wrong with this city.” Chong Jiu frowned as he looked at the city ahead.

As always, Shu Jianyue showed no sign of malice. "What's the problem?"

“The entire city is shrouded in a thick aura of evil.” Upon hearing Chong Jiu’s words, Shu Jianyue’s eyes widened.

"Tell Bai Jue via telepathy whether there were any problems with Yicheng before his accident."

If this city follows his misfortune, then it means that Ban Heng is very suspicious. After all, Ban Heng was the one who plotted against Bai Jue here. It would be strange if it wasn't him.

Chong Jiu nodded. "Let's go, we don't need to go in, let's go back."

"Don't we need to go in and check what's inside?" Shu Jianyue looked at the city, which was half-hidden in the fog. To her naked eye, it looked quite normal, even rather magnificent.

"There's no need. It's shrouded in such dense evil energy that there probably aren't many normal cultivators inside." Going there wouldn't be of any use.

Shu Jianyue shook her head and said, "What I care about is not the cultivators inside, but whether it's Ban Heng's problem."

“If so, then Ban Heng is undoubtedly a heretical cultivator.”

Chong Jiu raised his hand and stroked her hair, which she hadn't combed up that day. "Actually, there's no need to specifically confirm it. Just seeing Ban Heng is enough for me to know if he's a heretic. If he is, then the problems in this city are inextricably linked to him."

Shu Jianyue glanced at him and nodded. "Then let's go back. We can attend the Chongxian Sect's celebration."

Chong Jiu put his arm around her and walked back.

They hadn't gone far when several people blocked their way.

"Who are you people, sneaking around here?" The person in front stared straight at Shu Jianyue after speaking.

Shu Jianyue was disgusted and slapped him across the face. The man dodged quickly, but he did not avoid the heavy moxibustion.

Instead of slapping, Chong Jiu kicked the man, sending him flying out of sight.

He glanced at the remaining few people and asked coldly, "Any more questions?"

The group was still looking in the direction the man had flown off to. Hearing his voice, they all shuddered and shook their heads in unison.

"Then get out of the way." Chong Jiu's voice was even colder.

The group quickly moved aside.

Shu Jianyue laughed after flying a long distance away, "Haha... those people's reactions were hilarious."

Seeing her happy, Chong Jiu couldn't help but smile as well.

Shu Jianyue stopped laughing and asked, "Were those people..."

He nodded repeatedly during the moxibustion treatment.

Shu Jianyue's smile faded. If even a few lackeys are like that, then there are really not many normal people left.

Seeing that she was in low spirits, Chong Jiu immediately said, "Let's go to Chongxian Sect. Didn't you want to attend that celebration?"

Shu Jianyue nodded without saying anything.

Chong Jiu carried her towards Chongxian Sect. At his speed, it wouldn't have taken long, but considering her feelings, he slowed down.

Shu Jianyue noticed, looked at him and shook her head with a smile, "It's okay, let's hurry up and go, or it will start soon."

Chongjiu kissed her, nodded, and quickened his pace.

When they arrived at Chongxian Sect, it wasn't too late, and some guests were still arriving.

Shu Jianyue looked around and found that the Chongxian Sect was quite large, and there were many guests today, which could be described as a continuous stream.

"Oh, you're here! I thought you weren't coming." Nawei Xian walked out from inside with a smile.

She originally came to the sect to pick up her brother, but unexpectedly saw Shu Jianyue first.

Shu Jianyue smiled when she saw her and said, "I originally thought I wouldn't be able to come, but something happened in Yicheng, so I decided not to go and came here instead."

"What happened in Yicheng?" Na Weixian looked at her in surprise.

Shu Jianyue smiled and shook her head. "We'll talk about this later. You didn't come here specifically to pick me up, did you?" Her visit was a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Nawei Xian smiled and shook her head. "No, I came to pick up my brother. Oh, I was just talking about him and he's here."

Na Weixian waved to the spot behind Shu Jianyue.
