After traveling for some time, Shu Lan and Qin An returned to the Star River Sect.
After everyone returned to the sect, a thorough inspection was launched throughout the entire sect. The elders all sharpened their eyes, observing each disciple to check for any demonic cultivators mixed in.
Despite the intense search, a few escapees were actually caught. All the demon cultivators lurking in the sect were eliminated, along with the forces behind them.
Other sects also took action, and more and more demon cultivators were exposed, causing the Demon Realm to control less and less power in the cultivation world.
When the news reached the Demon Realm, the Demon Lord was furious.
"Bang!" The Demon Lord slammed his hand on the table, startling Jia Qi, who was kneeling below, so much so that his body trembled three times. "This is the good deed you promised to do?!"
"Please calm your anger, Your Majesty. It was all my fault, and I am willing to take responsibility." Jiaqi bowed his head deeply and kowtowed respectfully.
"Never mind, never mind." The Demon Lord waved his hand. "Have you made any progress on the information I asked you to investigate?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have found some information." With that, Jiaqi presented some documents, which contained the results of his investigation into Qin An over the past period.
The Demon Lord opened the documents and read them from beginning to end.
The document contained detailed records of Qin An's birth date, his mother's identity, and his life experiences...
After the Demon Lord finished reading the information, Jiaqi spoke up: "Lord, I have also found out some information."
"explain!"
"The mother of this child is a mortal woman who took care of the Lord during his amnesia." At this point, Jiaqi glanced at the Demon Lord's expression, hesitating whether to continue.
The Demon Lord glanced over at them and said, "What else? Continue!"
"Your Majesty, you had relations with this mortal woman while you were suffering from amnesia. Not long after, that woman gave birth to that child." Jiaqi finished speaking with a stiff upper lip, after all, this concerned their Lord's private affairs, and he dared not speak recklessly.
"So, Qin An is indeed of my bloodline?" The Demon Lord didn't react much after hearing Jia Qi's words, and simply asked calmly.
“Absolutely true!” Jiaqi said firmly, each word distinct and unequivocal.
"Find an opportunity to bring him to the Demon Realm." After reviewing Qin An's past, the Demon Lord didn't feel much; he simply gave this order.
"Yes, Your Majesty! I obey!"
On Tinglan Peak, Shu Lan was taking Qin An to soak in the spiritual spring in the courtyard.
After the accident at the Tengyun Conference, Qin An suffered some external injuries and internal damage.
Although Qin An had taken healing pills, and with the Wood Spirit Flame having the effect of repairing the body, his injuries were almost completely healed.
But Shu Lan was still worried and insisted on taking Qin An to soak in the spiritual spring so that he could heal his injuries there.
Qin An didn't want to refuse Shu Lan's kindness, so he had no choice but to follow Shu Lan to soak in the spiritual spring. This led to the current scene: Shu Lan took off Qin An's outer clothes and pressed him into the spiritual spring to heal his injuries; Shu Lan, on the other hand, was wearing her inner clothes, sitting cross-legged in the spiritual spring, with her eyes slightly closed, meditating and regulating her breathing.
Qin An sat in the spiritual spring, unable to concentrate for a long time.
His gaze kept glancing towards his master brother.
All I could see was that my master's inner robe was completely soaked, clinging tightly to his body. It outlined his beautiful figure, especially his waist, which looked incredibly slender and delicate.
Qin An had an urge to go up and hug his master's waist, wanting to touch it to see if it was as he imagined.
Qin An's face was burning hot, and his ears were also flushed and slightly red. Qin An shook his head violently, wondering what he was thinking! He patted his cheeks, trying to calm himself down.
While his master brother was meditating with his eyes closed, Qin An quickly recited the Heart-Clearing Mantra several times in his mind, and slowly, the temperature on his face finally dropped.
Shu Lan, who had been keeping a close eye on Qin An, was naturally aware of Qin An's subtle actions. He remained silent, wondering about it but didn't voice his concerns. Seeing Qin An's face turn red, he assumed Qin An was simply feeling hot, so he subtly moved his fingers, casting a small ice spell.
Under the influence of ice magic, the temperature of the entire spirit spring quickly dropped. Qin An felt the temperature of the spring water decrease and secretly glanced at his master brother. Seeing that his master brother didn't seem to want to ask him anything, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin An endured a grueling period of healing in the spiritual spring. Only after his injuries were fully healed did Shu Lan allow him to emerge from the spring. Qin An immediately dashed back to his room, moving as fast as if something were chasing him.
Shu Lan scratched his head, puzzled by Qin An's impatient manner, but quickly put the incident out of his mind. Shu Lan sat on the edge of his bed and continued reading the books he hadn't finished before.
On the other side, at Wenjian Peak, where Kong Xianghe and the Grand Elder were located.
Ye Feiyu has been going to Wenjian Peak every day these past few days. He promised to take care of Kong Xiang, and he will never break his promise.
After spending these few days together, Ye Feiyu gradually lost his fear of Kong Xiang. He found that Kong Xiang was quite easygoing when he wasn't pressuring him to cultivate.
On this day, when Ye Feiyu came to Wenjian Peak again, he smelled an enticing fragrance.
He followed the smell and went over there, only to see Kong Xiang carrying a plate of sweet cakes out of the kitchen. "You're here! Perfect timing! Try some of the sweet cakes I just made." Kong Xiang saw Ye Feiyu standing at the door and quickly invited him over to taste the sweet cakes.
"Your right hand isn't healed yet! How can you do something like this?!" Ye Feiyu ignored Tang Gao and instead held Kong Xiang's right hand with a worried expression, wanting to check if he was alright.
"It'll be fine. I used my left hand this time; I've taken good care of my right hand." Kong Xiang felt a warmth in his heart seeing how concerned Ye Feiyu was about him.
"real?"
"Um."
Now, Ye Feiyu turned his attention to the sugar cake. "I've been wanting to try your sugar cake for a long time, and now I won't be polite!"
Kong Xiang looked at Ye Feiyu with amusement. He had just been concerned about him, but as soon as he heard that Ye Feiyu was alright, his attention was immediately drawn to the food. He really was a little foodie!
Ye Feiyu picked up a piece of sweet cake and popped it into his mouth. His eyes widened suddenly, and he kept praising Kong Xiang: "Junior brother, what you made is so delicious! This is another new flavor, it's simply amazing!"
"Senior brother, I'm glad you like it!" Kong Xiang nodded with a smile, his eyes fixed on Ye Feiyu, not looking away for a moment.
