A month has passed.
Most of the cultivators who came to participate in the Immortal Demon Conference have already left.
Some curious individuals wanted to stay and watch the contest between Elder Fu Jiuzhou and Su Hanjiang.
Upon learning that Su Hanjiang and his apprentice had gone into seclusion, they could only leave in disappointment.
Breaking through to the fifth rank is extremely difficult; even those with good talent need several years.
The door to Chu Yiming's room remained closed.
Even the master and apprentice of Chunshui Pavilion are leaving.
Ye Wan sat on the ground, clinging to Ding Yumin's leg and sobbing uncontrollably.
"Sister, don't go, I can't bear to part with you..."
"Wanwan, don't be like this. We'll meet again in the future. After Brother Chu successfully breaks through, will you come to Chunshui Pavilion as a guest?"
Ding Yumin was naturally reluctant to part with Ye Wan, but there was no turning back once the separation was over, and there was nothing she could do to change it.
"Oh no, oh no, if I go back into the valley I won't be able to get out."
With Su Hanjiang and Chu Yiming both in seclusion, the arduous task of stopping Ye Wan fell to Ji Kongmeng.
He was young and not strong enough.
It was only with Han He's help that Ye Wan was barely pulled away.
After finally managing to pull Ye Wan away, she screamed even more deafeningly:
"Sister! Don't leave me! How can I live without you?"
Ding Yumin, with a soft heart, almost shed tears. She wanted to go back and comfort Ye Wan, but Ding Chunshui pulled her back.
“Mian’er, if you comfort her a little more, we won’t be able to leave. Once things are settled here and things at Chunshui Pavilion are settled, you will meet again. There’s no rush.”
Duan Xu comforted her, saying, "Yes, junior sister! Even the most delicious feast must eventually come to an end. There's plenty of time in the future; it's not like we'll never see each other again until we die."
Ding Chunshui sighed, realizing that although Duan Xu's cultivation had improved, he still needed to urge him to study more.
Even the most sentimental words sound like nonsense coming from Duan Xu's mouth. If the Spring Water Pavilion were handed over to him in the future, wouldn't the other sects laugh at him to death?
Ding Yumin finally hardened her heart and stopped looking at Ye Wan.
Ye Wan felt extremely sad, as if her heart had been hollowed out.
But since the person was already gone, she could only pretend to be nonchalant.
"Sister! Rest in peace! You must be happy, sister! You must be happy even without me!"
After the three left, Ye Wan sat on the ground and cried for a long time, like a little cabbage that no one wanted.
With a lock, even the most hard-hearted person would be tempted to drop a couple of coins when passing by.
Ji Kongmeng patiently comforted her: "Senior sister, please cry less. Senior brother is breaking through, and if he is disturbed, he might suffer a qi deviation. Besides, your crying is so unpleasant and will disturb Master's peace."
Ye Wan suddenly hiccuped, startling even herself.
The hiccup suddenly reminded her of something extremely important.
She wiped away her tears, got up, and calmly said, as if she had seen through everything:
"Junior brother, let's go eat."
Ji Kongmeng: ...
This is Ye Wan; even if the sky falls, she still needs to eat.
The Immortal Venerable's Palace canteen is now closed to the public, and we can't get ingredients. If we want to eat, we have to go outside.
After all, they didn't have any acquaintances in the Immortal Venerable's Mansion with whom they could freeload meals.
Ji Kongmeng naturally didn't want to go out; he wanted to stay in the courtyard and keep watch.
That way, I can see Su Hanjiang as soon as he comes out.
He's still a child, at an age where he likes to be clingy.
He didn't want to see anyone outside; no one was more important than his master.
Ye Wan was strong, and he couldn't break free at all.
"Senior sister, you go eat by yourself, I'm not hungry."
Ye Wan grabbed Ji Kongmeng, her face contorted with rage: "Junior brother! Two people are eating rice, but one person is eating feed! How can you bear to see your senior sister turn into a pig?"
Whose pig can eat more than you?
Unable to pull him away, Ji Kongmeng could only let Ye Wan drag him onto the street.
The two found a fairly popular restaurant and sat down; the place was almost full.
Ye Wan and her group arrived at just the right time; a good spot had become available.
The restaurant was very noisy, which Ji Kongmeng found a little unusual.
He used to love lively places, but recently he has come to prefer quiet.
Once you fall in love with the feeling of peace and quiet, you'll never like crowds again; you'll only find noise annoying.
Ye Wan was completely unaware and happily ordered food. The restaurant owner hesitated a bit when he saw that the two little kids had ordered so much food.
Ye Wan and Ji Kongmeng clearly possessed some level of cultivation; both were dressed simply, and Ye Wan's manners were even somewhat vulgar.
It cannot be ruled out that these two people came to dine and dash.
The waiter has seen plenty of people like this.
He's just a worker; if he didn't have this much insight, the shopkeeper would have thrown him out long ago.
After Ye Wan finished ordering, she noticed the waiter was still standing nearby and urged him to hurry up.
"We've ordered! Shall we go serve the food?"
The waiter said with a fawning expression, "Miss, you don't know this, but in our restaurant, you pay first and then eat. You see..."
Ye Wan responded with an "oh," understanding dawned on her.
Indeed, in school cafeterias, you swipe your card before eating.
So, he readily paid the money.
"Alright, please wait a moment, we'll serve you two dishes right away!" The waiter's face lit up with a smile when he saw the money, and he naturally greeted them warmly.
Ji Kongmeng, however, did not give him a pleasant look.
Ye Wan, being so careless, didn't notice, but he saw it clearly.
This waiter is clearly catering to different customers.
None of the tables that just sat down had paid in advance.
However, now is not the time to argue; the important thing is to get Ye Wan fed first.
Neither appearances nor substance matter as much to Ye Wan as food.
If Ji Kongmeng were to argue with the restaurant owner and delay Ye Wan's meal, the consequences would be even more serious.
