The Mountain and Water Cave Heaven, though called a cave dwelling, is actually a series of mansions built with spirit-gathering formations inside, making it rich in spiritual energy.
There are also various restrictions, and only the person who checked in can enter.
Ji Yun explained things to Yue Xi, which cleared up the misunderstanding.
"Look at you, if I hadn't found out, would you have just turned around and left, and never contacted me again?"
"What does this have to do with me? You're nobody to me."
Yuexi turned around, looking indignant, since it wasn't her fault anyway.
Ji Yun was stunned. Just a moment ago she was acting like she was going to kill this scumbag, and now she's starting to deny it?
Aren't we good friends?
"No, we're not even ordinary friends anymore," Yuexi said angrily.
This guy ascended to heaven and doesn't even try to find me. He's out shopping with women and kids and still wants to be my friend? Dream on.
Ji Yun thought for a moment and comforted him, "After my physical body shattered, my soul resided in someone else's body. Later, I ascended and was able to rebuild my physical body. My soul was also in a state of transformation, so I was unable to find you. I was planning to cultivate for a while and wait for my soul to break free of its cocoon before I went to find you."
"What do you want from me? I'm nobody to you, you're hilarious."
Yuexi crossed her arms, refusing to look at him at all, looking like she couldn't be coaxed.
On the other hand, Ji Yun and the other person had finally reunited. Shouldn't they be happy and hug each other? Why did things turn out like this?
He thought about it and concluded that it must be because he wasn't by her side that Little Fire had corrupted her in the lower realm.
Ji Yun moved his stool, and then Yue Xi moved hers too.
"..." Ji Yun was somewhat speechless, and continued.
“I cultivate every day so that I can go back to you sooner. I ignored that girl, but she kept pestering me and insisted on being with me. In the end, I revealed my identity and we barely became friends. Really, you have to believe me.”
"Who you're with is none of my business. We're not even friends anymore."
"Wait a minute, I must explain this clearly."
Ji Yun went out and then knocked on Qiu Yan's door. Ke Ke and Qiu Yan lived in the same cave.
After Keke opened the door, she asked with a smile, "Brother Ji, who is that woman?"
Ji Yun, with a stern face, looked at the two of them and asked, "What's wrong with you two? Why did you run away at this crucial moment?"
“We’re tired from shopping, so we want to come back, right, Keke?” Qiuyan patted Keke on the shoulder.
"Yes!" Keke replied loudly.
“That’s my Daoist partner. We’ve been apart for too long, and she happened to see the three of us shopping together. She mistakenly thought I was cheating on her, ugh… mistakenly thought I was promiscuous… damn it, mistakenly thought I abandoned her, and even thought Keke, you are my child. Now you guys help me explain.”
Qiu Yan's eyes flickered, and she nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I'll help you explain."
"Don't worry, Brother Ji, I won't mind." Ke Ke said earnestly.
"Hmm?" Ji Yun looked down at the little girl.
Keke blinked, as if she had said something wrong: "I will explain for Brother Ji."
Ji Yun breathed a sigh of relief and led the two over.
Then he introduced her to Yuexi: "This is Qiuyan, someone I met in another world. I just told you about her."
He patted Keke on the shoulder and introduced her again: "I met her after I came to the Upper Realm. She was playful and stayed at home all day. She ran away and that's how we met."
Keke walked up to Yuexi with a smile and said in a childish voice, "Sister, my name is Keke. Brother Ji is very good to me and treats me like a child."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who's raising you like a child? Go back home." Ji Yun slapped Ke Ke on the head.
"Waaah~ Sister, he bullied me." Keke clung to Yuexi's arm and cried, burying her head in Yuexi's arm.
Yuexi knew the child meant no harm, was just mischievous, and glared at Ji Yun: "Don't hit the child, she's still so young."
Keke turned half her face away and snorted smugly.
Ji Yun was furious. She was still young? He'd made her kidnap him! What a little bastard!
"Hello, my name is Yuexi." Yuexi patted Keke's head, looked at Qiuyan, and greeted her as well.
Qiu Yan smiled and said, "There's nothing between me and Fellow Daoist Ji. We're just acquaintances."
"Oh, I only know him by name. Fellow Daoist Qiuyan, there's no need to explain anything. We can exchange more Daoist techniques when we have time in the future."
Yuexi responded, at this moment she really wanted to stab Ji Yun to death with a sword. Why? Calling people over, was it so that others would think she was the kind of person who was petty, jealous, and prone to wild speculation?
Qiu Yan spoke gently, glanced at Ji Yun, and then said, "Okay, Fellow Daoist Ji often lectures me on the Dao. Sometimes I listen with great rapt attention, and I feel very good about this atmosphere."
Ji Yun had a bad feeling and quickly said, "Keke, Qiuyan, you should go back first. We have something to talk about."
"What do we need to talk about? It's much more fun to chat together," Yuexi asked in return.
Ji Yun frantically gave them meaningful glances, and only then did Qiu Yan and Ke Ke leave.
He walked over and sat down next to Yuexi.
"Now you know the truth, there's nothing between me and her."
"It's nothing, we just often preach together, and the atmosphere is great."
"......"
Ji Yun was furious. Why was she talking so sarcastically? She must have learned it from Xiao Huo. He went over and hugged her.
Yuexi flashed and appeared to the side.
Ji Yun teleported instantly and grabbed her, giving her no chance to resist.
"Let go of me, you scumbag!" Yuexi struggled.
"I miss you!"
Ji Yun hugged her and said softly, "You actually know, don't be jealous. I really wanted to find you, otherwise I wouldn't have ascended so quickly."
Yuexi gradually calmed down.
"Since leaving, I've tried many methods. I've used every available resource in the world. If I hadn't memorized those Taoist scriptures, I don't know how long it would have been before we met again..."
Ji Yun chattered on and on, telling Yue Xi about his experiences in that other world.
Yuexi listened quietly.
"Little Fire misses you very much. It has also ascended to heaven, but Yang Xiao said it should be in the demon realm."
"Who is Yang Xiao?" Ji Yun asked warily.
"The person in the mirror, it was also with his help that I found you."
Ji Yun suddenly realized, and then was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that Xiao Huo had also ascended. Very few demons ascended. Even Qing Luan, who had been the guardian beast of the mountain for so long, hadn't ascended.
"How did Little Fire ascend? Isn't it not so easy for demons to ascend? Qingluan has been here for so long, and she's still staying in the sect as a guardian beast."
Yuexi was being held by him and was a little out of breath. She pushed him away before saying, "I don't know either. That day, Xiaohuo and I went to a secret realm to find medicinal herbs to refine pills. It seems that Xiaohuo absorbed something and suddenly broke through his cultivation level and ascended to immortality."
"I see. Don't worry, you'll find it someday. You have its soul blood, so as long as you're not too far away, you'll be able to sense it."
"Um."
"Have you missed me?" Ji Yun asked softly.
"No!"
"......"
