Yuexi stared at the fire phoenix, noticing its gaze as if it were looking at something else. She asked in confusion, "What do you mean by this? Don't you believe this fairy?"

"I believe you! The Great Master is the most powerful."

"Actually, you don't know, he thought he was lying to me, but actually, I was lying to him. The food here is so delicious, so I let him trick me into coming here, and then I ate as much as I could. I'm telling you, but don't tell him, or you'll know, your soul blood is with me."

After Yuexi finished speaking, she turned on a drama to watch. She had been looking for a while, and the introduction seemed good and particularly attractive to her.

After Ji Yun returned, he put his things away. He had bought a lot of things today, mainly including a new monster.

"Let's eat first... Hmm? What are you looking at?"

"Rebirth: Making Him Regret Breaking Up with Me."

"......"

Upon hearing Yuexi's answer, Ji Yun's eyes widened. What kind of bizarre drama was this? He clicked on the description.

"In my past life, he divorced me and got together with my best friend. In this life, I want to make him regret abandoning me. In the end, he knelt in front of me and begged me not to break up with him. I felt guilty and forgave him."

He felt like vomiting blood; what an outrageous plot!

Ji Yun silently turned off the horror drama, sighed, and said, "You're still young; you can't handle this kind of melodramatic show."

Yuexi was somewhat unconvinced upon hearing this: "I just started reading, and what do you mean I'm still young? I'm hundreds of years old."

She pushed Ji Yun's hand away and then looked for the next video.

What about this one?

Ji Yun opened the profile.

"In my past life, I was as beautiful as a flower and commanded a million soldiers. However, the emperor listened to treacherous officials and ultimately gave me poisoned wine. I drank it with tears in my eyes. In this life, I have been reborn. I vow to help the emperor find the treacherous officials, make the emperor believe me, and marry me as his empress..."

Ji Yun clicked the option to block such related videos, then thought about it and deleted the short video directly.

Open the video app and hide all other categories. Now the player only shows movies and TV series.

"Alright, from now on, just watch these two shows. You lack knowledge, and I'm afraid you'll pick up bad ideas. If you want to know more later, I'll tell you slowly..."

"Okay, are there any... those cultivation dramas where the male and female leads become cultivation couples...?"

After Yuexi finished speaking, she squeezed Huofeng tightly, and the poor Huofeng dared not make a sound because it was being pinched.

Ji Yun thought for a moment, then pointed to the show and said, "This one, watch it after you finish breakfast."

Nowadays, TV dramas are so melodramatic that they're unwatchable. Old shows are much better; they captured the essence of the characters and left a lasting impression.

Ji Yun took a large pot of seafood porridge and poured out a large bowl of it.

"Xiao Huo, is this enough for us to eat?"

"That's enough, thank you, young master. I have spirit stones in my body, so I don't need to eat much to consume them."

Ji Yun looked at the little fire phoenix: "Little master?"

Fire Phoenix looked up at him, then at Moonbeam.

Ji Yun immediately understood: "It's okay, you can call me whatever you want."

Yuexi took out all the spirit stones and placed them on the table, then looked at Ji Yun.

"If you want to cultivate, you can take all of these. Don't be stingy with them. Cultivation is the most important thing. I'll figure out what to do if you run out."

Ji Yun looked at the storage bag, smiled, and said, "Have you forgotten? We'll see what materials we got from the secret realm when we get back. If we can use them, we can use them; if not, we can exchange them for spirit stones."

Yuexi's eyes lit up. She had almost forgotten that those things were indestructible and probably very valuable materials.

"It's a pity that so much of that palace is gone."

"It's already very good. Don't be too greedy. That array stone alone can bring great benefits to the sect."

"That's true, the sect leader should be very happy. By the way, are you planning to give it to the sect?"

Yuexi felt that Ji Yun would definitely give it to her, but she still wanted to ask him.

Ji Yun nodded: "Of course I'll give it to you. After all, this is your sect, and I'm an honorary elder... Oh right! What about my salary?"

"What salary?" Yuexi asked, puzzled.

“I am an elder who receives offerings; I should be entitled to a stipend.”

“This…” Yuexi thought for a moment and offered a possible explanation: “Maybe… they think you don’t need it.”

Ji Yun said, "No, go back and tell them, who would work without pay? Isn't this just capitalist behavior?"

Fire Phoenix, who was eating with her head down, asked after hearing this, "Um... can I get a salary? I can be a guardian beast of the mountain."

Ji Yun and Yue Xi exchanged a glance and thought it was a good idea; they could get an extra one.

The group enjoyed their meal immensely; the pot contained crab, shrimp, oysters, and octopus.

Not to mention Yuexi and Huofeng, even Ji Yun rarely gets to eat out, and it's very expensive, costing him over four hundred yuan.

He used to be perfectly content with a fast food meal or a pork knuckle rice bowl when he was alone. Now his mindset has changed. What is money anyway?

I'm already cultivating immortality, why would I need these paper currencies from the mortal realm?

Thinking of this, he transferred all the savings he had accumulated from working over the past few years to his mother.

This was originally his savings for his wedding. He earned over 10,000 yuan a month and could save about 80,000 yuan a year. He had already saved 300,000 yuan.

It's mainly during holidays and festivals when we have to give out red envelopes. If we don't give enough, our "white moonlight" (our girlfriend/boyfriend) gets upset and says it's embarrassing to post it on her WeChat Moments.

Now look at people like Yuexi, who give away all their savings for their own use. They don't even know what cosmetics are, let alone give out red envelopes.

Hmm... She's beautiful even without makeup.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Yuexi ate a shrimp and couldn't help but ask, "This person has been staring at me ever since we started eating."

"It's nothing, you're very beautiful."

"Don't talk nonsense again. Let me tell you, we're just ordinary friends. You can't have any other bad ideas."

Ji Yun didn't even look up and said, "I'll go buy some yellow paper after we finish eating."

"Why buy yellow paper?" Yuexi asked, puzzled.

"Chop off a chicken's head, burn yellow paper, swear brotherhood, we'll do..."

"Don't say that!" Yuexi interrupted him, somewhat flustered, "You... who wants to become sworn brothers with you? I don't agree."

"But you won't allow me to have any other thoughts, so the only option is to become sworn brothers, to die on the same day, in the same month, in the same year..."

Yuexi stopped eating, racking her brains for a solution. Finally, unable to think of anything to say, she could only force herself to say, "In short, I disagree. Let's just be ordinary friends. At most... at most fifty years, and we'll be the best in the world..."

As she spoke, Yuexi's ears turned red, and she couldn't continue, so she started drinking her porridge.

"The best in the world?" Ji Yun asked tentatively.

Yuexi had an octopus in her small mouth, looked up at him with her big eyes, and nodded.

Ji Yun belatedly realized what was happening, his eyes widening in disbelief. He exclaimed, "What did you say? Fifty years?"
