Two weeks later.
night.
Ji Yun was drinking alone in the pavilion.
Qiu Yan came over after seeing this.
Why are you drinking alone in silence?
Ji Yun shook his head, indicating that he did not want to talk.
"Are you really that annoyed with me?" Qiu Yan asked, somewhat annoyed.
"No, I just think you've misunderstood too much. If one day you find out that I'm not Ye Feng, I feel like you'll go crazy."
Ji Yun drank a lot of wine. He was homesick and missed Yuexi.
The two remained silent for a long time before Qiu Yan snatched the wine flask from Ji Yun and started chugging it down.
Qiu Yan wiped her mouth and said softly, "Actually, I already knew."
Ji Yun was taken aback and looked up at her, only to see that her eyes were red.
"You...you know?"
“I knew it from the moment you drew the talisman. Ye Feng doesn’t know these things, and they don’t exist in this world. Plus, you know so much about the Heavenly Realm, so you must have come down from the Heavenly Realm.”
Qiu Yan took another sip of wine and continued, "I haven't said it yet, but actually... I just wanted to see his face more often. Don't worry, I'm not that fragile. I'm just reminiscing. After all, we were never together."
Ji Yun remained silent and took out another pot of wine.
"The tune you hummed that day was really nice, let me play one for you too."
The melodious sound of a flute began, its rhythm carrying a hint of sorrow.
As the music ended, Ji Yun took a sip of wine and said, "It was very beautiful, with a unique flavor."
"Is your Daoist partner in the Heavenly Realm?" Qiu Yan asked.
"No, she's in another world. Perhaps she can do it after she ascends."
Ji Yun tried several times, but still couldn't connect to the other world.
Now his soul is several times stronger, and he needs to break through again and sublimate his soul once more.
Is she pretty?
"She's stupid."
Qiu Yan paused for a moment, then smiled.
"I don't think that's right. You might think she's stupid, but that might only be true in front of you."
"Maybe so. Anyway, I just feel like she's a bit slow. If we hadn't come to this world, I would have lied to her and let her have my baby."
"Hahaha." Qiu Yan laughed nonstop.
Ji Yun couldn't help but chuckle; sometimes he would say things that even he himself found funny.
Qiu Yan took another sip of wine and said, "You really are good at lying. If you hadn't been honest, I would still have thought you were Ye Feng."
"Ye Feng, he..." Ji Yun searched for information about Ye Feng and Qiu Yan's relationship, preparing to tell her.
"Don't say anything more. I don't want to hear his feelings. Let it remain in my memory. That's the best way for me."
Qiu Yan seemed to know what he was going to say and interrupted him.
Ji Yun nodded.
"Could you tell me how you and your fellow Daoist met?"
Qiu Yan suddenly wondered just how good her Daoist partner was that this person was cultivating so frantically just to see her.
“Her…” Ji Yun narrowed his eyes and said softly, “The first time I saw her was in her sea of consciousness. I lied to her and said I was a great demon to scare her…”
Ji Yun laughed heartily: "Hahaha, you know she was terrified back then, thinking I would use her for something, so she carefully tested me."
"Pfft." Qiu Yan covered her mouth and laughed: "She actually believes that."
"Yes, I was in her mind's eye at the time, and she couldn't get rid of me. She thought I was very powerful, so I couldn't bear to tease her anymore..."
“At first I found it quite interesting, but later I felt sorry for her, her fate was being controlled by others... Of course, I also had my own ideas. I thought she was very cute, so when she didn’t dare to resist me, I took her in as my disciple.”
"Then I took the opportunity to take advantage of her. Of course, I admit I was driven by lust, but that's human nature. So I started to consciously or unconsciously get closer to her."
"Later, she discovered that I was just an ordinary person who couldn't even kill a chicken, and she retaliated against me."
Qiu Yan asked in surprise, "When you first met, you didn't have any cultivation yet?"
"Yes, it's a long story and not easy to tell you. In short, our master-disciple relationship turned out to be a sham. It's so frustrating that such a lovely disciple is gone. So I tried to take it a step further."
"Who knew she was so reserved? I often had to rack my brains to get a hug. She was also very proud and arrogant. Even though she had feelings for me, she just wouldn't admit it, which made me furious. Luckily, I was patient."
"I just don't know how she is now, or if she's thinking about me."
Ji Yun looked up at the moon in the sky, feeling somewhat melancholy.
Qiu Yan listened quietly, and seeing the happiness on Ji Yun's face, she felt a little dazed, as she had seen this feeling in her dreams several times before.
Six months later.
Ji Yun returned from outside, bringing back many herbs and monsters.
There are more than a dozen demonic beasts, all of which are fifth-tier and excellent materials for alchemy.
Xunmeng'er looked at the constant noise from the alchemy room and was very puzzled.
"Why is Master refining so many pills?"
"Many of the pills were used by us, and some were kept by our master himself."
Or perhaps the song is clear: now Master goes out every day to search for treasures and medicines, kill monsters, or draw talismans.
"In this world today, all resources are at Master's disposal, probably in preparation for his ascension."
Xunmeng'er exclaimed, "I never expected to reach the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm in such a short time. It's like a dream."
"Hurry up, I feel Master is getting impatient."
Huo Ge often saw Ji Yun alone in the pavilion at night, sometimes disappearing for a moment and then returning quickly.
