The wind is picking up.
Zhao Xi clutched her collar, standing still, feeling a bit cold.
The stars twinkled in the sky, and the moon hung high in the sky.
If it were during the day, you might even see a rainbow.
The rain cloud landed in front of her, and Lin Che's worried voice came from within: "Are you alright?"
"No……"
Zhao Xi composed herself, let out a long sigh, put on a faint smile, and gazed at the glowing clouds.
This is just a cloud of water vapor. If Lin Che could transform into human form, he would have done so long ago.
"So you still can't come back?"
The voice from the clouds hesitated for a moment, seemingly sensing her questioning, before replying, "I need the water that governs everything in this world, and these past few days have been a full moon..."
Zhao Xi blinked, trying to maintain a smile: "Then let's break up. Starting with you, I will not accept any form of long-distance relationship!"
"..."
Zhao Xi tried to control her emotions and said calmly, "If I were with you, I would always feel lucky and think that the Water God is all-powerful and could crush these demons in no time! But what about you? Since I met you, all you've done is make it rain or flood, and you even cough up blood when you occasionally use magic."
Yun Duo protested, "I vomited blood when I met Miao Yin, and he knew my weakness when he fought Long Qingyang. He has been plotting for a thousand years to devour me. I am the Water God, not as weak as you say. You just happened to appear a few times when I was at my weakest!"
Zhao Xi's voice rose, her emotions finally out of control: "Then why didn't you just pin that cat demon to death? Why did you have to wait until she stripped me naked and groped me all over, and then let me roast this meat in the rain for so long? How can we eat this meat now that it's all wet?! You left me here alone, to fight against the demons with my mortal body?"
She took out the barbecue grill from the ring and pointed to the charcoal that was still smoldering from the steam.
Cloud: "A full moon means a high tide; as far as I know, that's common knowledge in your world!"
"Aaaaaah!" Zhao Xi screamed in fury, roaring at the cloud, "So I've had enough! Even arguing has to be done with a cloud! Break up, I want to break up with you!"
She is just a mortal with a physical body; how could she possibly encompass the entire world from her narrow perspective?
Why would she tolerate her lover constantly floating in the sky, making all sorts of moves?
Something's not right...
Why would she tolerate her lover constantly drifting in the air, able to manipulate events at will?!
The charcoal in the barbecue grill is all wet, and she hasn't eaten a single bite since she was starving!
She's never cooked such a disastrous meal before!
No, I don't want it!
Just throw it away!
She angrily stepped on the steep rocks and walked down the mountain.
The mountains have no spiritual energy; they're just a dark, gloomy expanse.
Only the cloud behind them could emit light.
He followed Zhao Xi's thoughts, as if he were guiding her.
"Don't follow me! Aren't you still in charge of the tide? Then hurry up and leave! I see now that your destiny with me lies in the bamboo house of the Kangnan demon clan. The time I gave you enlightenment, that was the end of our connection! Once you find a way to resist demonic energy, you can go back and bring rain and tides... Don't follow me around all the time! I'll go back to the Hundred Beast Garden and recruit a new teacher!"
"..."
The clouds remained silent.
Hey, you're not even going to argue back.
She was absolutely right!
"Get lost! I have my own light, I don't need you to light my way!"
Zhao Xi wanted to take out a spirit stone lamp from her ring to light her way.
The clouds followed her.
Feeling annoyed, Zhao Xi took out a fire talisman, turned around, and threw it into the clouds.
For some reason, the fire talisman failed to ignite.
The clouds dispersed on their own.
angry……
She found a paper crane inside the ring and released it.
Even Lin Che isn't as reliable as Old Man Luo. Old Man Luo knew to tell her to leave a paper crane talisman, which would automatically call for help in an emergency.
Zhao Xi wanted to walk quickly and was still angry, so she accidentally stepped on weeds and moss.
Her embroidered shoes were wet, and her feet were slippery.
"Aww!"
Due to inertia, she fell down the mountain and plunged downwards.
She took out the Earth God Shrinking Talisman from her ring, but before she could even chant the incantation, she bumped into a warm embrace.
The wide sleeves covered her.
She peeked out.
Lin Che stood on the glowing clouds, pursed his lips, and looked down at her with displeasure.
Zhao Xi was still angry. She broke free from his embrace and said, word by word, "Thank you, brave man! Please find a place to put me down. I can find my way on my own!"
Lin Che's voice was cold: "The spiritual energy on your body is not enough to support the talisman. If it weren't for me, you would have already fallen to your death."
Zhao Xi thought, "Thank you so much! If you hadn't been angry with me, I would have been more careful and wouldn't have fallen and died!"
"Is it my fault?"
Zhao Xi thought, "Otherwise what? Is it all Shi Chen's fault?!"
Lin Che had nothing to say. He manipulated the water vapor clouds and, with a fierce determination, tried to dive down with Zhao Xi.
Holy crap!
The wind is so strong it feels like it's blowing my scalp off.
Zhao Xi felt cold and shivered, but due to inertia, she unconsciously snuggled into Lin Che's arms.
A short while later, the clouds stopped on the flat ground at the foot of the mountain.
It's as thrilling as riding a roller coaster.
"We've arrived. Get off."
Lin Che pulled his sleeve from Zhao Xixiang's hand.
Zhao Xi took a deep breath to steady the dizziness from the roller coaster ride, stubbornly raised her head, and gave a cultivator's salute: "Thank you, Master! Five-star review is here. Goodbye, and farewell!"
Lin Che: "..."
Zhao Xi wanted to jump off the cloud and take out her clothes from her ring to put on.
I looked up and around.
This place is no longer Little Fish Mountain, nor does it resemble Dog Head Mountain.
In the distance, there was a bright, ethereal light, tall and round, like a half-moon fallen onto a mountain.
There was a large campfire in another direction.
Several bizarre-looking people sat around the campfire.
They are the Kangnan demon clan.
Zhao Xi wanted to walk quickly in that direction, but her feet were already so cold that she could barely feel them.
"It's the Headmaster!" A demon cultivator was the first to spot her and waved to her.
Immediately afterwards, the two little ones, Xiaojia and Xingye, stood up from the campfire and ran towards her with their short legs.
"Headmistress!"
"Aww! Headmistress, I thought you got eaten by that big cat too, waaaaah..."
The boy and the little one rushed into his arms one after the other.
I'm fine now!
Zhao Xi tried to put her arms around them.
"Headmistress, you're so cold! Come here, we've lit a bonfire."
Xiao Jia is a sweet and caring guy. He took her hand and led her towards the campfire.
The demon cultivators made room for Zhao Xi to sit down in a warm spot.
Luo Haiqing, wearing a thick coat and with branches tied to his legs for support, sat by the campfire, holding a bamboo tube in his hands.
"Great, the little director is still alive. This is dog meat soup that the demon cultivator brothers just cooked."
Zhao Xi thought, "...You cooked Saliyah?"
Luo Haiqing: "How could I dare? This portion is much larger than that!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Salia awkwardly walked over from the side and sat down by the campfire.
