"I..." Qi Yu didn't intend to do anything to the people here. He just wanted to find out Cheng Ye's address. He was even a little afraid that the people around Cheng Ye would misunderstand him, so he hurried to explain.

"Young Master Qi, do you have a visiting card?" Cheng Shaoli had originally come to see Cheng Ye, but he didn't expect to see someone he disliked. His face suddenly darkened, and he snorted coldly, "Even if you have a visiting card, you can't do whatever you want in my Cang Yun Sect. Please go back, Young Master."

Qi Yu was stunned by the interruption. The moment he saw Cheng Shaoli, his eyes flashed. He immediately appeared in front of Cheng Shaoli and bowed respectfully, "Second Uncle, please let me see Cheng Ye. I have something to say to him."

Cheng Shaoli narrowed his eyes slowly. "You and he are strangers, what is there to say? Besides, you just heard that Ye Zi is in poor health and has been in seclusion to recuperate. Do you really want to force him out again and kill him?"

Qi Yu panicked immediately: "No, I didn't. I just wanted to see him and make sure he was okay."

Cheng Shaoli sneered, "It was fine originally, but if you looked at it, maybe..." Thinking of the half-dead look of Cheng Ye who was killed before, Cheng Shaoli's tone couldn't help but turn more than ten degrees colder, "Qi Yu, don't think that I won't dare to attack you just because you are a junior!"

He had a cold face, but he couldn't help being angry and started to nag: "Qi Yu, I don't care what happened between you, but I warn you, from now on - you have nothing to do with Ye Zi. What Ye Zi said before was just angry words. You can rest assured that he is just talking and he is not really targeting you. But if you still try to disrupt his life again and again, Qi Yu, you have to consider the long-standing friendship between our two families. Ye Zi - after all, is our baby!"

"You, don't come to him."

"And Qi Yu, since you're here, our Cheng family wishes you and Feng Yuxuan a happy and blessed life together! No matter when your marriage ceremony is scheduled, you don't need to send us an invitation. No one in the Cheng family has time!"

666: "... Ye Zi, your second uncle has a really vicious tongue. Although this is a world of cultivation, both of them are men. Let alone having a baby soon, even if they have a child, it would have to be based on infidelity, and they would live together till old age..." People with cultivation will naturally not change their appearance, but ordinary people will have the possibility of gray hair. This curse is really cruel.

"Second uncle."

When Qi Yu looked up, he saw a young man walking towards him from afar. His white clothes were as white as snow, his hair was as black as ink, but his face was pale, and even his lips were bloodless. He subconsciously took two steps forward, but was stopped by Cheng Shaoli who took a step across.

Cheng Shaoli's face darkened, and his tone couldn't hide the deep worry: "Weren't you already in seclusion? Why are you coming out again?"

Cheng Ye looked at Qi Yu sarcastically, and said with a half-smile: "It's already at my doorstep, how can I stay calm?"

Qi Yu's face was bitter: "Cheng Ye."

"Young Master Qi!" Cheng Ye suddenly attacked. He swung his sword, the tip of the sword pointing directly at Qi Yu's throat. "Can you never remember what people say? We are not that familiar with each other."

"Cheng Ye, I...were you the one who detoxified me in the back mountain of Feng's family?" Qi Yu's voice trembled. He asked directly without paying attention to the threat of the knife point at him.

"If I could turn back time, I would rather not be myself!" Cheng Ye said coldly.

"Why? You were fine that day, so why did you get injured and have to go into seclusion—" Qi Yu asked anxiously, wishing he could take his pulse to verify whether he was lying.

A strong sense of humiliation lingered in his heart, and Cheng Ye's fingers were shaking uncontrollably. He stared at Qi Yu without saying a word.

Cheng Shaoli narrowed his eyes and answered instead, "Ye Zi was on the verge of a breakthrough, but you interrupted the reverse flow of Qi and blood. He was just one step away from going astray. His body was weak and he didn't receive proper care, which led to the loss of his foundation and made it difficult to recover. During his retreat, because of you—"

"He was so angry that he failed to advance." Cheng Shaoli sneered, "Are you satisfied with this answer? If you don't believe it, my Cheng family has nothing to say. After all, he asked for this. Go away. If you still don't consider the overall situation, don't blame us for taking Ye Zi's words as my Cheng family's attitude. Please go back and tell your father and mother that my Cheng family is not so easy to bully!"

"No, it's not that I don't trust Cheng Ye, I just want to ask about his health!" Qi Yu was speechless. He suddenly took out a storage ring and took out bottle after bottle of white jade bottles. "These, these are all excellent healing and promotion pills. I-"

"No need. My health condition has nothing to do with Young Master Qi. Our Cheng family is not so incapable of obtaining this elixir." Cheng Ye looked at Qi Yu with extremely cold eyes. "Young Master Qi made a promise as if it were child's play, but I, Cheng Ye, cannot go back on my word. I will not hold a grudge against you for breaking your promise. If Young Master Qi is here to seek advice, I am sorry that I am not feeling well and cannot accept the challenge. Please come back another day."

"Cheng Ye, I was wrong. The first person I saw when I woke up that day was him. I thought—I thought the person touching my skin was him." Qi Yu said in a trembling voice, "I mistook him for you. I don't know people well, but I beg you to give me another chance to correct my mistake. I—"

"Enough!" Cheng Ye shouted at him with a pale face, stopping him from saying anything. Qi Yu opened his mouth slightly and stood there in a daze.

Cheng Ye raised his lips in a self-deprecating arc, took a deep breath and asked, "Master Qi, are you trying to say that this is all a misunderstanding? It's just that you are so confused that you don't know who to repay? Do you think you are acting out a story from the mortal world? Since you have admitted your mistake, there is no need to admit your rightness again. As for Master Qi, if you want to settle the cause and effect, it is a piece of cake. I just hope that Master Qi can contribute the basic sword manual to my Cheng family so that my Cheng family will not be bullied by others like me in the future!"

"I——" Qi Yu was speechless.

"Okay! Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, my Cheng family will not be so stingy as to pursue it further. This matter ends here, and you don't have to care about it. I, Cheng Ye, just want to ask for an explanation and don't need your compensation. Young Master Qi, please go back." After Cheng Ye finished speaking, he turned around and left, his steps unsteady, as if to prove that what Cheng Shaoli said just now was true, and even Cheng Ye's physical condition was worse than he said.

"Don't go!" Qi Yu suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Ye. Under Cheng Shaoli's shocked glare, he hugged the shaky Cheng Ye and said, "Can you give me a chance to make amends or fulfill your promise?"

Cheng Ye's body stiffened, as if he recalled the painful memories of that day, and he suddenly struggled violently. The sword blew past, and a piece of Qi Yu's sleeve fell off, but his body was not hurt.

"Qi Yu, have you and Feng Yuxuan been getting along well these past six months?" Cheng Ye broke free from Qi Yu's arms, panting heavily for a long while before finally calming down. He suddenly asked, "You and Feng Yuxuan were so loving and affectionate, always responding to his requests. You even helped him enter the Weapon Refining Pavilion and become the Pavilion Master's personal disciple, and you got engaged to him. Was it all because you mistook him for that person? Was it because he saved you that you're trying to compensate him in this way?"

Qi Yu really wanted to nod, but he frowned, feeling something was wrong.

Cheng Ye was speechless, but the anger and sarcasm on his face disappeared. He said earnestly, "Okay, now I believe that you are indeed a man of your word. How can you be so casual about such a big matter?"

After a pause, Cheng Ye shook his head, as if he felt that he had made too much of a fuss, and his tone softened a lot: "Forget it, it's none of my business anyway. But if you want to repay me for what happened that day, you don't have to. It may be a karmic settlement for you, but not for me. Although I, Cheng Ye, am not a person who values friendship and loyalty, my interpretation of Taoist companionship may be different from that of Young Master Qi. People with different philosophies cannot work together. Please don't mention this matter again to prevent misunderstandings in the future. By then, it will not just be a dispute between the two of us."

"No, it's not like that!" Qi Yu stood in front of Cheng Ye, but seeing his gloomy face, he didn't dare to move his hands. The elegant young man in the past was now hesitant, hesitating for a long time before saying, "I, I am -"

"What is it?" Cheng Ye found it extremely funny. "Could it be that Young Master Qi has a fledgling complex and has a special obsession with the first person he has sex with?"

Because Cheng Shaoli was next to him, Cheng Ye wanted to say something to provoke him, but his face turned red for a moment and he swallowed it back.

666: “…”

Cheng Ye: “…” It affected my performance.

"It's a pity I didn't." Cheng Ye raised his hand and pressed his tightly knitted brows. "Although Feng Yuxuan hasn't officially entered your Qi family yet, you can't take back what you said at his eighteenth birthday party. He, Feng Yuxuan, has already been stamped with your Qi Yu's stamp. Now, Master Qi, you are here to entangle with me. Don't you feel sorry for your future Taoist partner?"

Qi Yu was about to explain, but Cheng Ye stopped him with a raised hand.

"Don't mention this matter again in the future. Young Master Qi doesn't mind, but my future Taoist partner may mind. I'm showing off and considering his feelings." Cheng Ye's voice revealed deep fatigue. His feet couldn't support him and he shook slightly. Cheng Shaoli supported him first.

No, when he thought that the young man in front of him might be in love with another person, Qi Yu felt innocently depressed and a huge anger surged in his heart. He was so excited that he could hardly control his violent emotions.

Cheng Ye keenly felt his sharp sword energy, stepped back cautiously, and hid in Cheng Shaoli's arms.

He didn't know what his feelings were towards Cheng Ye. Before he met this person, he always thought that Feng Yuxuan was the same person as before. Even though there were many things about Feng Yuxuan that he disagreed with, whenever he thought of the other person's blurry face when he was bullied by him and couldn't even cry, he just felt heartbroken.

No matter what the other party asks, he will try his best to satisfy it.

It's not like he hadn't suspected Feng Yuxuan before, because the other party's occasional behavior was indeed strange, as if he knew nothing about the details of what happened on the back mountain. However, he failed to discover the truth because he repeatedly ignored the other party's unnaturalness due to the compensatory psychology, and he was also afraid that Feng Yuxuan was different from what he imagined, so he didn't want to delve into it. He even took the initiative to find excuses for Feng Yuxuan.

On the back mountain, Qi Yu was already unconscious when the two met, and then he endlessly bullied the person in his memory. That person didn't seem to say or do anything else except crying, begging for mercy, and finally accepting his fate and compromising.

In short, he still didn't understand that person, so he gave Feng Yuxuan the opportunity to impersonate him.

Qi Yu was a little confused. He couldn't even figure out what he was thinking about the man on the back mountain. Could it be that it was really like what Cheng Ye said, that he was just grateful to the person who saved him, and he became a citizen with the other person just because of the sense of responsibility?

Otherwise, how to explain that Feng Yuxuan was able to do it, but now suddenly found out that there was someone else, Cheng Ye, who was also able to do it?

Although those involved are confused, Qi Yu still feels that this is different.

Previously, he always felt that there was something wrong with Feng Yuxuan. Even if he really became a Taoist partner with him, he was afraid that it was really as Cheng Ye said, that he was driven by responsibility, but Cheng Ye was different!

I want to be with him, not just about the physical intimacy we had that day.

Even if it wasn't Cheng Ye that day, but someone else, Qi Yu was willing to use all his money, resources and status to make up for the other party, and then pursue Cheng Ye, making Cheng Ye his only Taoist partner in this life!

Yes, he loves Cheng Ye, and he wants to become a citizen with Cheng Ye, no matter what!

Just because of love!

In an instant, Qi Yu thought too much, and finally fell in love for some reason.

It was as if this love had always been there, but was blocked by thick clouds. Now, after the wind and rain, the love was slowly revealed - even bigger than he had imagined, and seemed to occupy his entire life.

Qi Yu even felt for a moment that Cheng Ye was destined to be with him, and he was born to love Cheng Ye.

But - Cheng Ye no longer wanted to hear anything he said, or rather, his physical condition could no longer support him standing here, so he waved his hand and ordered him to leave.

Qi Yu also noticed that he looked dismal and unwell, so he didn't dare delay any longer. Before leaving, he said, "Your injury is caused by me. You should take these pills. Have a good rest. I'll come back soon."

Cheng Ye frowned: "You can leave the pills. My injuries are fine. Master Qi, don't worry about it. I'm going to retreat soon, so I won't bother Master Qi to make another trip."

"I'm really going into seclusion this time. I'm afraid I won't be coming out again in the short term."

"It's okay, you can just go into seclusion, I won't bother you." Qi Yu said.

"...I don't have to stay in seclusion here." Cheng Ye said after thinking for a while.

Qi Yu's pupils changed slightly: "You want to leave? Where are you going? You are..."

Cheng Ye rolled his eyes. "I'm not hiding from you. I just need to find a place where I won't be disturbed. If someone comes knocking on my door every few days, why would I stay in seclusion? I'll just go crazy!"

Qi Yu was anxious: "Don't talk nonsense!"

It was too late to talk any further, so Cheng Ye frowned impatiently, rolled his eyes at Qi Yu, turned around and left.

Qi Yu smiled at his back like a fool, and watched Cheng Ye enter the house. The smile on his face disappeared completely in an instant, and his face was so dark that ink could almost drip out. He took out a heavy sword and flew away on it.

The gatekeeper breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him leave, patting his chest in fear. "Everyone says Young Master Qi is young and promising, the most prestigious and favored child of heaven in the Northern Continent," he said. "But why does he look like he's not thinking straight?" His expression changed so quickly that I thought I was going to die here today.

Thinking of the gloomy look in Young Master Qi's eyes before he left, he didn't know who would be unlucky enough to have surgery, but since it was none of his business, the servant quickly forgot about it to avoid having nightmares.

Qi Yu was poisoned during his training that day and was unconscious the whole time, unable to recognize anyone. When he regained consciousness, the first person he saw was Feng Yuxuan. Coincidentally, the place where the poison was detoxified was also in the back mountain of Feng's house, so Qi Yu naturally thought that the other party was his savior.

But Feng Yuxuan was just passing by at the time. When he picked up Qi Yu, the remaining poison had been cleared and his body was getting better. He didn't need his care. When Qi Yu thanked him for wanting to fulfill his promise, he neither admitted nor denied it, and tried his best to avoid mentioning the detoxification.

Qi Yu always thought that he was shy or angry that he had bullied him too harshly, but he didn't expect that he was completely ignorant and just didn't dare to mention it.

After leaving Cangyun Sect, Qi Yu went straight back to Feng Family. After this incident, the elder of Feng Family was injured and in urgent need of medical treatment. The guests had already left, leaving only the spiritual pharmacists in the yard waiting in fear.

How can an ordinary spiritual pharmacist heal the damage done to one's cultivation? He would definitely need elixirs. However, when Cheng Ye took action, there was no hope unless he had an elixir of level six or above.

Feng Yuyan saw a streak of light falling into her yard from afar, and hurried over to find that it was Qi Yu who had left in pursuit of Cheng Ye. She only knew that Qi Yu and her eldest brother had been having a hot affair recently, and she didn't know the reason. She thought that Qi Yu left to vent the Feng family's anger, and naturally returned after dealing with Cheng Ye.

As soon as she saw Qi Yu, Feng Yuyan immediately went up to him with a sweet smile: "Brother Qi, are you here to see my brother?"

Qi Yu had been very polite to the Feng family members at first for Feng Yuxuan's sake, but since he learned that Feng Yuxuan was a liar, if he had not been well-educated, he would have destroyed the Feng family long ago. Naturally, he did not look happy when he saw Feng Yuyan at this time.

Feng Yuyan, however, didn't care about his expression and continued to cling to him: "Brother Qi, you have to vent my brother's anger. Because of that Cheng Ye, the two elders of the Feng family are still bedridden. In order to avoid him, my brother was hurriedly sent to the Weapon Refining Pavilion before his birthday was even over..."

"You said your brother has gone to the Equipment Refining Pavilion?" Qi Yu asked.

"Yes." Feng Yuyan curled her lips. "I don't know what's wrong with Cheng Ye. He must be jealous that my brother is about the same age as him, but he is quite talented in refining weapons. If my brother doesn't leave quickly, he will be harmed by him before he can rise to prominence..."

Qi Yu was so angry that he trembled all over because of the disparaging words she said to Cheng Ye, but because the other party was a woman and her cultivation was low, he could not take action for the time being.

Feng Yuyan just wanted to make her brother sound more miserable, perhaps even getting some good things. She continued to complain greedily, "Brother Qi, do you have any medicinal pills?... Cheng Ye has no skills at all, relying solely on his family's resources to bully others. I don't know what tricks he's used, but the elders are all vomiting blood and can't even get up. It's already..."

"Bang--"

Feng Yuyan suddenly fell silent, her pupils shrinking as she stared in shock at the four crumbling walls of the Feng family's house. She stumbled back two steps and muttered, "Qi, Brother Qi?"

The people who were originally standing in the yard were also horrified and retreated one after another. Some even stepped on the broken wall and ran away!

The loud noise of demolishing the house alarmed the head of the Feng family who came to visit the elders of the Feng family. His hair and beard were already gray, and if he didn't make a breakthrough, he might not have many days left.

Although Qi Yu is young, he has a high level of cultivation, and with the Qi family standing behind him, even the head of the Feng family is not as high-ranking as him, and even has to bow when he sees him.

At the birthday banquet, Qi Yu returned half-bows to all of Feng Yuxuan's elders, but at this moment, he was extremely angry, and the regret that he could not beat Feng Yuyan was immediately made up on the head of the Feng family. His brows were stern, and he immediately made a gesture and swung his sword, mobilizing all his energy to attack the head of the Feng family.

With a louder "bang" than before, the head of the Feng family fell heavily to the ground, blood gushing from the corner of his mouth. In less than a breath, the bluestone floor under him shattered into pieces and extended outside the house.

The sudden change shocked the Feng family members who arrived later. They looked at Qi Yu with a livid face in panic, and each of them was like a plucked quail, not daring to breathe.

An elder of the Feng family was pushed out, his face pale. "What do you mean, Master Qi?"

Qi Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at the elder blankly: "What do you mean? Go ask your good descendant Feng Yuxuan!" He said this as if in a hurry, turned around and left without any explanation.

Although Feng Yuxuan's character is questionable, for ordinary people, his talent in refining equipment should not be underestimated.

The Equipment Refining Pavilion never participates in fights, but they will never allow any talent to be wasted. Feng Yuxuan is well aware of this, so he immediately rushed to the Equipment Refining Pavilion to seek refuge.

Although the disciples of the Equipment Refining Pavilion did not have a high level of cultivation, they were highly respected by the cultivators for their equipment refining skills. Even if Qi Yu was furious, he would not cause trouble in the Equipment Refining Pavilion again.

Qi Yu arrived at the Equipment Refining Pavilion and handed in the invitation first, but Feng Yuxuan didn't expect that his lie would be exposed half a year later, and he didn't expect that the person who saved Qi Yu was Young Master Cheng.

He couldn't afford to offend either Qi Yu or Cheng Ye.

At that time, he only thought that the person who saved Qi Yu might be just a small character, who could be dealt with by spending some money or using the pressure of power, but Cheng Ye was obviously not in this category.

Moreover, he had no idea that there was such an obvious exchange of tokens between the two.

Damn it—Feng Yuxuan clenched his fists tightly, his body trembling slightly, and he was very scared. He thought, how great it would be if Qi Yu fell in love with him in the past six months.

At first, he also wanted Qi Yu to fall in love with him, or have sex with him before he found out, but - who knew that Qi Yu was a fool, not to mention having sex with him, they had never even held hands.

If he hadn't sent those good things and promised to merge his citizenship with him, Feng Yuxuan would have even wondered if he had discovered that there was something wrong with him a long time ago.

Qi Yu, who had no feelings for him at all, had been deceived for so long. Feng Yuxuan didn't believe he had no resentment. Especially since Feng Yuxuan's eyes widened in anger. He clearly saw in Qi Yu's eyes an interest in Cheng Ye's experience. That was the kind of attention he hadn't received despite all his efforts in the past six months! And yet, Cheng Ye had gotten it so easily!

Feng Yuxuan felt sad and jealous. His nose felt sore and his eyes reddened. He was overwhelmed with emotions and tears started to fall.

Knowing that Qi Yu was definitely here to settle the score, Feng Yuxuan didn't even think about refuting or explaining, because he knew that Qi Yu had already believed Cheng Ye, so he was not willing to come out to see him at all. He just asked the little boy to tell him that he had gone into seclusion.

Feng Yuxuan's head was a mess. He held his head and the first thing he thought of was to escape and wait until Qi Yu's anger subsided.

Feng Yuxuan was recommended by Qi Yu, and was also personally recognized by Qi Yu as his future Taoist partner. Therefore, everyone in the Weapon Refining Pavilion treated Feng Yuxuan with great respect, and even had two more servants to serve him personally than the others.

He dared not disobey Feng Yuxuan's words and even acted a little flatteringly.

"I'll say it one last time, let him out!" Qi Yu grabbed the servant's collar and almost lifted him up.

The servant was frightened by his fierce expression and powerful pressure. If he hadn't been held by him, he would have sat down on the ground with his knees weak. He said in a trembling voice, "Master Qi, it's not that I don't want to pass on the message, it's that Master Feng really has something to do and can't come out. You, even if you kill me, it won't help."

After saying that, he wanted to slap himself to death. He really didn't want to live anymore.

What if Young Master Qi really kills him in anger!

Fortunately, Qi Yu was not the one who killed innocent people. He raised his hand and threw the man to the ground with a thud, his bloodshot eyes staring at the mountain where Feng Yuxuan was.
