"Why are you sighing?" Cat was displeased. She suddenly patted Mu Jin, "Ah Jin, hurry up and tell him."
Mu Jin understood the seemingly nonsensical command instantly.
So Mu Jin said to Venerable Crane Hidden, "I was the one who chased after Cat Cat. I can't live without her. Venerable Crane Hidden, when you return to the Heavenly Realm and have a small gathering with the immortals, please help me spread this secret."
The cat smiled.
The Hidden Crane Master, however, was shaking his beard, looking utterly devastated. "You, Jin, I was only helping you with some things because of your master, and you've taken me for a megaphone?"
Mu Jin asked, "How is Master?"
"What's so good about it! It's a misfortune for your family. You didn't want to be a proper immortal, so you insisted on going against the Heavenly Realm. Now that you've married the cat, returning to the Heavenly Realm will be even more difficult. Sigh..."
Cat frowned; the old man's words, as always, were unpleasant.
She suddenly grabbed the old man's beard. "Old man! Why are you sighing like that? The Heavenly Realm isn't a good place either. I'll take care of A-Jin in the future. Wherever I go, he'll go. You don't need to worry about him."
"Hey, hey, let go of my beard." His precious beard was almost pulled off. "Alright, alright, little ancestor, can't I say a few words? You're too impatient. I'm not here to break you up."
The cat then let him go.
The Hermit Crane straightened his beard, then looked at Mu Jin and Maomao with a very emotional expression, and said, "Today I sensed that Jin's soul was well-organized, so I came down to check. However, judging from this, you have been hiding this from me for a long time."
The cat was a little confused.
Mu Jin said, "When I regained my memories, I sealed part of my soul. That day in Y country, I sensed that there were other gods mixed in with the mortal world, so I stopped hiding it."
Because the seal would weaken his power and prevent him from detecting danger in time, he absolutely could not allow any mistakes to be made in protecting the cat.
The Crane Hermit suddenly became serious. "Didn't you want to know why I came to the mortal realm? Besides coming to see you, I also want to tell you that when you two caused such a disaster, another major event happened on Kunlun Immortal Mountain!"
The cat wasn't very interested.
Mu Jin asked, "What is it?"
The Hidden Crane Venerable said: "Back then, Kunlun Immortal Mountain mobilized the power of all the immortals to activate the Demon-Slaying Array to kill the cat, but you reversed the star orbit and destroyed it all, causing both sides to suffer heavy losses. Kunlun Immortal Mountain was thrown into chaos, and you were also shattered to pieces as a result."
However, at that very moment, Ye Li, the God of Slaughter imprisoned on Jiuyin Mountain, also managed to escape in the chaos.
Mu Jin narrowed her eyes.
"The God of Slaughter, Ye Li? What is that?" the cat asked.
Crane-Hidden Venerable: "The God of Slaughter, Ye Li, is the most ruthless god in the past ten thousand years. He has been imprisoned in Jiuyin Mountain and held in confinement by ninety-nine bronze ropes with the characters 'swastika' on them. He is an extremely dangerous person."
"So what?" the cat asked.
The Crane Hermit looked at Mu Jin and said, "So, Jin, do you understand now? The reason why Kunlun Immortal Mountain hasn't bothered you all these years is because they can't even solve their own problems."
Ye Li regained his freedom and left many traces throughout the three thousand worlds. Kunlun Immortal Mountain sent countless people out, but even after a thousand years, they have found nothing.
The cat finally understood; it turned out that the killing god had gotten a bargain.
Mu Jin looked at Venerable Crane Hidden and asked, "Why are you telling me all this?"
The Hidden Crane Venerable looked at him with a disappointed expression, "Of course, I'm letting you redeem yourself by performing meritorious service! Your soul is complete now; you only need to break the self-seal to regain your divine power."
Go find Ye Li and bring him back to Kunlun Immortal Mountain. That would be a great achievement. After that, no one will hold you accountable for reversing the star orbit, and you can return to Qinghong Palace.
Upon hearing this, the cat couldn't help but look at Mu Jin.
Mu Jin remained silent for a moment, then suddenly curled her lips into a smile. "Venerable Crane Shadow, who told you I was going back to Azure Rainbow Palace?"
The Hidden Crane Master was greatly surprised, "...Jin, what do you mean by that?"
Mu Jin sat on the sofa and leaned back. "It means exactly what it says. I can never go back to Qinghong Palace."
Venerable Crane-Hidden slammed his fist on the table in anger, “Is that how you talk? If your master saw you like this, he would be furious!”
“You don’t need to mention my master,” Mu Jin said. “Do you know what the Demon-Slaying Formation is? Throughout history, this formation has only been used twice. The first time was ten thousand years ago, when the Dao was declining and the demons were rising, to suppress evil spirits in the world. The second time was against the cat.”
"When I reversed the star orbit, I had already made my choice."
The Venerable Crane was so angry that he couldn't even sit still. He suddenly stood up and paced back and forth on the floor.
Cat looked at Mu Jin and gently grabbed his sleeve.
"Alright, alright, I'll give you a few more days to think it over. I'll come back when you've calmed down." Venerable Crane Shadow flicked his sleeve and prepared to leave.
Mu Jin also stood up, "Wait... no need to waste time, I've already thought it through."
The Crane Hermit suddenly turned around, staring at Mu Jin, then at the cat, his beard bristling and eyes wide.
After a long pause, he said, "When I released the cat, I thought about what the result would be. The child has grown up and developed worldly desires. Isn't it just that he wants to fall in love?"
"Once you return to Qinghong Palace, a proper marriage isn't out of the question. Old Man Ziwei hasn't forbidden his disciples from marrying. Why do you insist on going against Kunlun Immortal Mountain?"
The Venerable Crane was so angry that he said many things he shouldn't have.
If old man Ziwei finds out about this, he'll definitely scold him.
Mu Jin remained unmoved, replying coldly, "I don't need anyone to outwardly agree while secretly opposing. Cats won't like the Heavenly Realm."
"Lord Crane Hermit, you can go and tell my master whether you want me expelled from the sect or the Azure Rainbow Palace handed over to someone else. In short, don't waste your time on me."
"you……"
The Hermit of Crane pointed at Mu Jin, speechless for a long time.
He never imagined that, after his soul was finally whole, he would make such a decision!
But then Mu Jin added, "Furthermore, it's not that I'm opposing Kunlun Immortal Mountain, but rather that Kunlun Immortal Mountain is opposing me."
"That's enough!"
The Hidden Crane Master turned around and vanished instantly!
Above the clouds, Venerable Crane Hermit looked down at the small island below and let out a long sigh, "Alas..."
"It is truly an inescapable fate, old man Ziwei, there is nothing I can do."
...
Inside the room.
The cat looked up at Mu Jin and said, "Ah Jin, you made the old man angry and he left."
Mu Jin sat down again. "If I hadn't angered him and driven him away, he would have taken me with him."
After a moment of silence, the cat said earnestly to Mu Jin, "Ah Jin, I will take care of you."
Mu Jin rubbed the cat's head. "Okay."
