"Legend has it that if you give a piece of Nansheng jade to someone you like, you will receive the blessing of that jade. Can I see it?" Wei Ya had only heard of Nansheng jade, but had never seen one before. Jade pendants of this color are extremely rare.

Wei Ya was only staring at the jade pendant and didn't notice that Gu Yu's eyes had softened considerably.

"good."

Wei Ya took the jade pendant and rubbed its surface. It still had the warmth left by the jade and felt wonderful to the touch. It was delicate and smooth. The pattern on it was a waterfall, which was very well carved and looked just like a real waterfall.

"I will never fall in love with any woman in this life. I have no need for this jade pendant. If you like it, I'll give it to you." When Gu Yu said this, he no longer hesitated, and a firm look flashed in his dark eyes.

“You have a long life ahead of you. What do you mean by never liking any woman again? You should keep this jade pendant for yourself. A gentleman does not take what belongs to others.” Wei Ya stuffed the jade pendant back into her hands.

Gu Yu took a step back, avoiding his hand, and said, "I'm pretty sure I'll never like women again. You've been kind to me and to my master. Giving you a jade pendant is nothing, just consider it a token of my gratitude. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease."

“Master, Master, you only have your master in your heart. Fine, I’ll take this jade pendant.” Wei Ya’s anger flared up, and her previously wavering decision instantly followed her heart.

A warm smile flickered in Gu Yu's eyes.

...

Several months later, Qiao Qiu and Xuan Lan had traveled to all the places in the cultivation world. Before returning to the Upper Immortal Realm, Qiao Qiu went to Feiyu Peak one last time to see her disciple.

This discovery made her realize that both Jiang Xi and Shang Jin were about to ascend to immortality.

What's going on? Are her apprentices becoming more and more talented?

How could such an unbelievable situation have occurred?

Then Qiao Qiu discovered that her disciples would spend at least seven or eight hours a day at the bottom of the waterfall on Feiyu Peak, without using any spiritual power.

So they're prepared to risk their lives, right?

However, just as Qiao Qiu was furious and asked Xuan Lan to help her send a message to teach them a lesson, she saw Xuan Lan continuously channeling his immortal power into the waterfall.

"Alan, what are you doing?"

"I've placed a protective barrier; they'll be ejected if their lives are in danger."

"You support them." Qiao Qiu didn't expect him not to stand by her side.

“You’re worried about your disciples being in danger, but I’ve checked, and this waterfall on your Flying Rain Peak is somewhat connected to the Immortal Realm. The spiritual energy supplied from here is at least a hundred times higher than in ordinary places. It would be good for them to cultivate here.” As long as these little disciples can ascend as soon as possible, he won’t have to wait so long to marry Qiu’er.

"Won't they be in danger?" Qiao Qiu looked at the waterfall, which seemed rather unreliable.

"As long as your lightning protection array is working properly, they'll be fine." Xuan Lan stroked his chin. Their ascension might indeed have some instability in their cultivation levels, but as long as they successfully ascended and went to the Upper Immortal Realm, he would always have a way to help them stabilize their cultivation levels.

"That's good." Qiao Qiu was quite confident in her formation.

Xuanlan put his arm around her shoulder. "Let's go back to the Upper Immortal Realm and wait for them."

"good."

The two turned around and disappeared into Feiyu Peak.

...

Upon returning to the Immortal Realm, Qiao Qiu went straight to Wei Ya's barbecue restaurant. When she left, she told her disciple she would be back in a day or two, fearing he would worry, but she was gone for several months. Although Xuan Lan told her that Wei Ya would explain to Gu Yu, Qiao Qiu's heart was still with her disciple.

However, when she arrived at the barbecue restaurant, she found it was already closed.

Xuanlan put his hand on her shoulder and said to her, "Wei Ya should go back to Rainbow Feather Palace."

“Rainbow Feather Palace? Is that his palace?” Speaking of palaces, Qiao Qiu thought of Shangqing Palace. As one of the Nine Divine Lords, it’s not surprising that Wei Ya has his own palace.

Xuanlan nodded. "Let's go, let's go to Rainbow Feather Palace to find him."

Xuanlan and Qiao Qiu disappeared in front of the barbecue restaurant and arrived at Wei Ya's Rainbow Feather Palace in the blink of an eye.

Qiao Qiu's first impression was of the surrounding red maple leaves. The leaves were so red they looked as if they had been dyed, and they were pure and clean, with an extremely vibrant color, even more beautiful than ordinary red maples. If there were only one, it wouldn't be so noticeable, but as far as the eye could see, there was no end to them.

"Wei Ya really knows how to enjoy life. Living in such a beautiful place, it's such a waste that he doesn't take good care of himself."

"Little Qiu'er, don't you think those words are a bit too hurtful?"

As soon as they finished speaking, two men appeared before them. One was dressed in white robes and had a cold and stern face. The other was dressed in red and had a delicate and handsome appearance.

"Gu Yu, you're back to normal, that's great." The first person Qiao Qiu noticed was her own apprentice.

Xuanlan nodded to Wei Ya and then looked at Gu Yu, observing what he would look like when he grew up. He had to admit that he could defeat at least 70% of the men in the Upper Immortal Realm.

Gu Yu bowed to Qiao Qiu, saying, "Disciple greets Master."

"Xiao Qiu'er, can't you see me standing right here?" Wei Ya's gaze fell on Qiao Qiu's hand holding the jade pendant, slightly displeased.

Qiao Qiu looked at him, raised an eyebrow, and was amazed. "Who are you?"

"Wei Ya, this is the real me." Wei Ya played with her fan, a smile playing on her lips, her beautiful eyebrows exuding a carefree spirit.

Qiao Qiu was once again amazed, clicking her tongue in admiration, "I never expected that you were the one who hid the best. Your original appearance is so beautiful! You wouldn't have concealed your true appearance to become a barbecue restaurant owner because you're so good-looking, would you?"

Wei Ya laughed and said, "You were absolutely right."

Xuanlan spilled a jar of aged vinegar and said quietly, "Qiu'er, how can you praise another man's good looks in front of your own man?"

"Ah, right, no matter how pretty she is, how can she be as pretty as our Alan?" Qiao Qiu quickly soothed her.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by this?" Wei Ya was annoyed.

Gu Yu smiled slightly and took his arm. "To each their own, it doesn't matter. I think you're good-looking, that's enough for me."

"Hmm." Wei Ya gave an unclear "hmm," slightly awkward. He glanced at Gu Yu, stunned by his smile, coughed lightly, and looked away.

Qiao Qiu rarely saw her apprentice smile. Before she could even be surprised, she saw him wink at her and his eyes darted back and forth between Wei Ya and Qiao Qiu.

Qiao Qiu gasped, glancing at the stunningly beautiful Wei Ya, then at her own handsome apprentice who exuded masculine charm, and then at Gu Yu holding Wei Ya's arm, who remained unresponsive, clearly used to the gesture...

It became clear immediately.

He gave his apprentice an approving look.

Gu Yu laughed even more happily.

Xuanlan: ...

What's wrong with my wife?

Wei Ya: ...
