The lowest level of the Forbidden Immortal Prison.

A blinding white light flashed at the end of the dark corridor; that was the exit.

Ji Xiaoxin was extremely anxious, wishing she could appear in front of Liao Kongmin at any moment.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle," Ji Xiaoxiao urged.

Yu Cheng Taiji Immortal Lord didn't take it to heart. His deep eyes looked at Ji Xiaoxiao, and the unreadable deity actually revealed a hint of sympathy.

"Don't rush, it's just ahead."

Yu Cheng Taiji Immortal walked slowly, taking ten minutes to cover a distance of three hundred meters.

As she approached the exit, Ji Xiaoxiao heard a series of unrestrained moans and suppressed groans, and her face involuntarily turned red and hot.

"It's inconvenient for me to go in from there. You can go in by yourself."

After finishing speaking, Yu Cheng Taiji Immortal Lord turned and walked away.

Ji Xiaoxiao took a step, but couldn't take a single step.

She vaguely knew something.

Taking a deep breath, trying to calm her agitated heart, Ji Xiaoxiao could smell a faint, fishy stench. She swayed unsteadily, feeling utterly devastated.

So, what else doesn't she understand?

But maybe not?

Ji Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and went inside.

After a while, as her eyes adjusted to the white light, Ji Xiaoxiao opened them.

"No, no."

"Immortal Venerable, I want one too."

"Immortal Lord, aren't I beautiful? Why are you ignoring me?"

On a wide and long white jade bed, a man and a group of women were laughing and playing. The man was handsome and the women were charming. They were a perfect match, a match made in heaven.

Ji Xiaoxiao knew the man's face by heart; she would recognize him even if he turned to ashes.

“Kongmin,” Ji Xiaoxiao murmured.

In the midst of revelry, Ji Xiaoxiao's desolate and sorrowful murmur stood out from the crowd, drawing the attention of everyone on the bed.

"Xiao Xiao." Liao Kongmin panicked for a moment when he saw Ji Xiao Xiao.

Ji Xiaoxiao held her breath and said in a deep voice, "Can we talk? It's just the two of us."

Liao Kongmin did not refuse, but said, "Okay, but please wait outside for a while, I need some more time."

Upon hearing this, the women on the bed, who had previously looked on with alarm, suddenly became all smiles.

"That's some time, but the immortals are still hungry."

"They are the same; the Immortal Venerable cannot abandon them, and they depend on the Immortal Venerable for survival."

The women, one after another, revealed their various thoughts; their intentions were as clear as day.

Liao Kongmin's expression turned cold for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Alright, don't come crying then."

Liao Kongmin laughed loudly and his movements became even more ferocious.

Ji Xiaoxiao stood still. They were shameless, so why should she pull down their fig leaf? She watched openly, without the slightest bit of anger or embarrassment.

"What is this?" Ji Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback. Liao Kongmin and those women were engaged in dual cultivation.

On the white jade bed, the women were all quite accomplished, the weakest being a True Immortal and the strongest a Grand Luo Golden Immortal on the verge of becoming a Celestial Venerable. Immortal cultivation is hard-won, so how could they bear to pass on most of their accumulated power to Liao Kongmin?

Are they truly in love?

Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, then shook her head.

Three days later, Liao Kongmin pulled up his pants.

Why bother?

Liao Kongmin approached, his first words carrying a mixture of pity and condemnation.

Ji Xiaoxiao gave a heavy snort and said, "Come with me."

The two walked into the dark corridor, their footsteps crisp and heavy. Ji Xiaoxiao suddenly turned around and slapped Liao Kongmin across the face.

"Why?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked.

Liao Kongmin remained unmoved. "I don't like you anymore."

Ji Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, clearly taken aback.

"You don't like me anymore?" Ji Xiaoxiao said angrily. "Then why don't you break up with me? If you don't break up with me, you, Liao Kongmin, are my man. During our relationship, you were with other women, which is a betrayal of me."

Ji Xiaoxiao stepped forward, raising her head haughtily. "Liao Kongmin, we've known each other for so many years, you should know what kind of person I, Ji Xiaoxiao, am. What you owe me, I will get back. What you hurt me, I will repay a thousandfold. You betrayed me, you hurt me, do you know how I will deal with you?"

Liao Kongmin remained calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.

He calmly said, "You won't come after me."

After a pause, Liao Kongmin continued, "You've noticed it too, haven't you? You're just pretending not to know, pretending everything is still perfectly fine. You clearly know my thoughts and actions, but you deliberately turn a blind eye and a deaf ear, which means you won't lay a hand on me."

Ji Xiaoxiao's breath hitched. She remembered what the adult had said: "Be more careful."

Be more mindful and pay attention to those around you.

Be more careful and don't easily trust others.

Be more careful and don't let yourself get hurt.

Be more mindful and take better care of yourself.

Be more careful...

Tears streamed down her cheeks, wet and cool, and Ji Xiaoxin felt utterly hopeless.

"You've been meaning to break up with me for a while now?"

Liao Kongmin nodded, "A man should be courageous and responsible."

"Why didn't you just tell me? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have..." Ji Xiaoxiao shut her mouth, not wanting to show her vulnerable side to her ex.

Liao Kongmin took a few steps, leaned against the tunnel wall, lowered his head, and half-closed his eyes, blocking out a myriad of thoughts.

"I originally intended to explain to you after completing this mission, but this world has amazed me, and I want to stay." Liao Kongmin is a man, and apart from a few outstanding men, most real men pursue nothing more than a few things: beautiful women, money, power, a supreme and silent status, and the powerful force to destroy the world.
