Chapter 413 (Extra): Ye Luo x Jun Yi, Love Across Three Lifetimes
"Drink milk..."
"Sister, go away! Don't steal my nest, boohoo..."
"You're the one who should get away! Daddy is mine!"
Inside the bedchamber, on a large bed, seven unformed dragon cubs were arguing and smacking their lips as they lay on Ye Luo's chest, trying to get a mouthful of their "mother's" milk, but they were stopped by a merciless large hand.
"You little bastards! Taking advantage of my wife again!"
Junyi, who had just returned from an errand, was furious to see this scene. He was instantly consumed by jealousy, and in a fit of rage, he overturned several of the dragon cubs, picked up the sleeping Yeluo, and left, leaving the other children behind crying pitifully.
"Stupid father, give Daddy back to us, boohoo..."
"Father, sob sob..."
Awakened by the noise, Ye Xi sighed, squinted, and reached out to pull them all under the covers. "Alright, stop crying... Father is such a big idiot. Let's go to sleep."
"Ugh, you big idiot! I won't let him sleep in the bed anymore!"
"Yes! We'll find Daddy a new husband, we don't want him anymore!"
"Yes, the best would be someone handsome and gentle, Daddy would definitely like that!"
Listening to their constant murmurs, Ye Xi squinted and mumbled a few words, "I'm so sleepy. If you don't go to sleep, I'm going to spank you..."
"oh……"
...
Inside the spacious bedchamber, the occasional hissing sounds of Ye Luo could be heard. She kicked the man in front of her in the shoulder, her face full of anger, and said, "Jun Yi, stop messing around, I want to sleep!"
Jun Yi grabbed his ankle, his face full of displeasure: "Hmph, I already told you not to sleep with those kids, they've made your legs swollen!"
Ye Luo rolled her eyes, trying to pull her foot back, and said helplessly, "Tsk, these kids are so ignorant, why are you taking it so seriously?!"
"Damn it, don't bite! It hurts!"
"You are mine, you belong to me alone! Tomorrow I will send them all away!"
"You dare!"
Before long, chaos erupted inside the hall, followed by a soft moan that made the maids outside blush and giggle in ambiguity.
Judging from their loving relationship, they will probably have a few more adorable little masters soon.
As night deepened, the passion within the bedchamber gradually subsided.
Ye Luo lay sweaty on the bed, clutching the hand that was roaming behind her back, and sighed, "What's wrong with you today? Why are you so fierce?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi paused, a cryptic smile playing on his lips. "It's nothing."
Ye Luo: "Really?"
Jun Yi's lips curled into a smile. "That's right, it's fake! I just don't have enough of you!"
"You bastard, stop whining..."
All words of rejection were drowned out by the sea of desire. After the two were entangled for half the night, Ye Luo finally fell asleep, exhausted.
At this moment, Jun Yi was wide awake. He stared at the sleeping face in his arms, his eyes unblinking, as if afraid that the sleeping man would slip away from his embrace.
A moment later, Junyi rested his face against the back of his neck, inhaling the captivating lotus fragrance, and then peacefully drifted off to sleep.
...
"Why hasn't he woken up yet? Didn't Qi Jun say he was alright?"
"Who knows? How can you believe that person's words?"
"That's right, if it weren't for him, Junyi wouldn't be in this state!"
"No way! We have to go to the Star Array Pavilion and demand an explanation, or they'll think we're easy to bully!!"
The bedchamber was crowded with people, all of them elders from the Dragon Palace, who were looking worriedly at Jun Yi, who was unconscious on the bed.
Jun Yi, who looked like a young man, had a pale face and looked sickly.
At this moment, Zhuoyuan walked in and saw the person still unconscious on the bed. He said in a deep voice, "Please go back first. We can decide what to do after Father and Mother return from their tribulation!"
"Yes, Young Master." After saying that, the people who had been crowding the room gradually left, leaving only Zhuo Yuan behind.
Zhuoyuan looked at his sleeping younger brother, took out the pill given to him by Qijun from his bosom, pried open his mouth and gave him one. Sure enough, after a short while, Junyi showed signs of waking up.
"Jun Yi".
"Big brother..."
Jun Yi opened his drowsy eyes and looked around at the room's furnishings. Only then did he realize that he had actually returned home. His heart sank, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is the Immortal Lord? Where is he?!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuoyuan looked at him and sighed, "Seven days ago, he sent you back and then left."
"He's gone...he's gone?"
"He said he wouldn't abandon me... He's a liar..." Jun Yi murmured obsessively, his golden eyes turning crimson, and his whole demeanor began to change erratically.
He exuded a violent and bloodthirsty aura, as if he would turn into a killing monster at any moment.
Seeing his condition, Zhuoyuan instantly understood Qijun's instructions. He absolutely could not be left out in this state, otherwise it might really cause a disaster.
Zhuoyuan took out a bottle of medicine, handed it to him, and said, "Drink this medicine."
Jun Yi looked at the liquid in his hand, sniffed it, and his eyes flickered a few times before he said, "It smells like pheromones... Did he give it to you?"
Although Zhuoyuan didn't understand what 'pheromones' were, after thinking for a moment, he nodded and sighed, "It was indeed him who gave them to you. He said that if you drink these few bottles of medicine, your symptoms will be relieved."
"Release it?" Jun Yi shook his head stubbornly, tears welling in his eyes, and refused, "I won't!"
"I don't want to remove the mark, otherwise I'll never be able to find him again..."
"The Immortal Lord promised to let me be his spirit pet, and he even said we'd be together forever... I need to ask him about it!"
After saying that, Jun Yi got out of bed and staggered toward the outside of the bedroom, only to be kicked back by Zhuo Yuan.
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Zhuo Yuan's face was grim. He had just heard his self-deprecating words and wished he could kill him with a sword. "Drink it quickly and everything will be over. You can't abandon the dignity of the dragon race!"
"Without him... what use is my dignity?!"
Jun Yi hissed and got up, knocking over the medicine in his hand. He still insisted on leaving, but was restrained by Zhuo Yuan using the Immortal Binding Rope.
"Big brother, let me go!" Jun Yi struggled desperately to break free from the restraints, but his spiritual power was intermittent, leaving him helpless.
"Disgraceful! Where can you go looking like this? Stay home!" Zhuo Yuan angrily forced him to take the medicine, went outside the bedroom to call for guards, and then strode away in a huff.
As the footsteps faded into the distance, Jun Yi, due to the effects of the medicine, gradually felt drowsy and drifted off to sleep, softly calling out Qi Jun's name.
In his intertwined dreams, all he saw were images of himself and Qi Jun, traveling through mountains and rivers, traversing beautiful landscapes, their eyes fixed only on each other…
This brief scene kept replaying in his dreams, and he slept like this for a whole month.
When he woke up, the cultivation world had undergone a tremendous change. Not only had the Star Array Pavilion suddenly disappeared, but even the brilliant Qi Jun had fallen into demonic possession, causing an uproar throughout the entire cultivation world.
Upon hearing this news, Jun Yi felt as if struck by lightning, his face filled with disbelief: "Impossible..."
Zhuoyuan knew he didn't believe him, so he took out a mirror and handed it to him, saying, "Take a look for yourself."
"What?" Jun Yi hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and took it. The mirror was full of images of Qi Jun after he became possessed by a demon and became bloodthirsty.
Waves of cultivators roared and attacked him, unleashing their magical weapons, but before they could even get close, they were all killed by his longsword.
In an instant, blood blossoms filled the air, and corpses fell like rain, creating a bloody and horrifying scene.
"wrong!"
Jun Yi looked up at Zhuo Yuan in front of him, his crimson eyes filled with killing intent, and asked, "He wouldn't kill indiscriminately. Do these people intend to harm him?!"
"No matter the reason, it doesn't matter. As a powerful and insane cultivator who has fallen into demonic possession, he is naturally coveted by others."
"Besides, given his special physique, many people want to capture him, especially those he offended in the past. They certainly won't let this opportunity pass them by. Don't get involved in this mess!"
Jun Yi looked at him in silence.
Seeing his appearance, Zhuoyuan didn't want to say anything more. He took out a few bottles of medicine and placed them on the table. "This is the antidote. Whether you take it or not is up to you."
"Our parents are currently undergoing tribulations, and the outcome is still uncertain. Many forces are watching us. I hope you can consider the clan's interests and stop acting recklessly."
After Zhuoyuan finished speaking, he patted him on the shoulder and turned to leave, and the hall fell silent for a moment.
Jun Yi looked out the window, and after a long while, a resolute look appeared in his eyes. He immediately made a hand seal to create a secondary body and instructed, "You stay by my elder brother's side and take good care of the Dragon Lord Palace for me."
Upon hearing this, the second person looked at him with some confusion, then nodded solemnly.
Jun Yi's face was full of guilt. He took the few bottles of medicine on the table, transformed into a streak of light, and left the Dragon Lord Palace.
Moments after he left, Zhuoyuan, standing in the corridor, sighed, somewhat angrily saying, "That fool! He actually abandoned his family for a man! It's infuriating!"
The elders beside him looked worried and anxious, saying, "Young Master, what should we do now? Should we send someone to chase after the Second Young Master?"
"No need, let him be."
Zhuoyuan looked at the secondary body in the hall, his eyes showing determination, and ordered, "Take Jun Yi's secondary body to the forbidden area. I will personally erase the divine consciousness he left behind. From now on, he will be the only 'Second Young Master'. Do you all understand?"
"This..." The elders looked at each other, and although they did not quite agree with this approach, it was a reasonable solution for the Dragon Palace, which was currently walking on thin ice, so they could only reluctantly agree.
...
After leaving the Dragon Palace, Jun Yi searched for news of Qi Jun all the way, but unfortunately he was either too late or came up empty-handed.
Just when he was almost in despair, he encountered the long-lost demon phoenix. "Hey? What are you doing here?"
"Demon Phoenix!"
In a roadside tavern, the Demon Phoenix was drinking fine wine alone. She raised her phoenix eyes and looked him up and down. "How can you be so disrespectful? Quickly call me Fairy Sister!"
Jun Yi had no time for teasing her, so he asked directly, "Demon Phoenix, do you know where the Immortal Lord is?"
Upon hearing his question, Yaohuang frowned slightly, put down her wine cup, and after pondering for a moment, said, "I know, but I won't tell you."
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi's face froze, filled with confusion. "Why?"
The demon phoenix said, "First of all, I promised him; secondly, I personally don't want you to go to him."
Seeing Jun Yi's injured appearance, Yao Huang's face showed sadness, and she continued, "To be honest, I met him yesterday. But he seemed to be in a daze and had amnesia. He couldn't even remember who I was."
"What?" Jun Yi's face was full of surprise. He only knew that the man had fallen into demonic possession, but he never expected that the condition was so serious.
Thinking of his condition, Jun Yi became even more anxious. If someone took advantage of his vulnerability, wouldn't he be in even greater danger?
"Demon Phoenix, please, just tell me!"
Seeing that he was still so stubborn, Yaohuang sighed and said seriously, "I just said that I don't want you to go to him."
Jun Yi: "What exactly is the reason?"
The demon phoenix sighed, "You are his calamity."
"A calamity?"
Jun Yi looked at her blankly, seemingly not understanding her meaning, "What calamity?"
The demon phoenix said, "I heard from the Sword Venerable that Qi wanted to undergo the tribulation of the mortal world and actually wanted to cultivate the Nine Nether Heartless Technique in order to forcibly sever the karmic ties of the mortal world. However, something went wrong and that's why he turned out like this."
At this point, Yaohuang sighed and took a sip of wine, her cold eyes fixed on Jun Yi before her. "Don't you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi's face turned pale. He opened his mouth but remained silent for a long time, his thoughts in disarray as he recalled her words, so much so that he didn't even know when she left.
For a long time, Junyi knew that Qijun's ascension to the True Immortal realm was only a hair's breadth away, but he did not understand why.
"Could it be... because of me?"
Thinking of this.
Jun Yi was overwhelmed with guilt, his heart felt as if it were being ripped apart by a thousand sharp blades, and a suffocating pain spread throughout his body. "Immortal Lord..."
...
After hearing Yao Huang's words, Jun Yi was filled with deep self-reproach.
Instead of rushing to find Qi Jun, he inquired about him along the way and then silently stayed nearby, hoping that he could have an epiphany and successfully overcome this calamity.
But fate had other plans. His patient and long wait was met with devastating news from the mortal realm.
When he rushed to the lower realm, he was greeted by a shattered land and a landscape scarred by war.
In the gloomy sky, a blood-red rune array suddenly appeared, illuminating the entire dark sky.
Qi Jun sacrificed himself to activate the magic array. Jun Yi, who witnessed everything, felt as if his internal organs were being ripped apart. He roared in pain as he caught Qi Jun's body.
Watching the eerie magic array operate, constantly absorbing the soul of the person in his arms, Jun Yi cried out like a madman, "Immortal Lord, please don't go... You promised that you would stay with me for the long years to come!!"
"Um?"
The Qi Jun in his arms was barely breathing. Looking at the person before him who was sobbing uncontrollably, a hint of warmth appeared in his indifferent eyes, "So it's Little Dragon..."
Hearing that he recognized him, Jun Yi nodded with tears streaming down his face, "It's me, it's me!"
A tenderness appeared in Qi Jun's gradually unfocused eyes. She reached out and gently stroked his face, a faint smile playing on her lips. "Why are you crying so sadly? Do you like me that much?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi affectionately nuzzled his cheek, pleading fervently and humbly, "I love you, Immortal Lord, I love you so much... Please don't die, okay? I'll do anything you ask!"
Hearing his affectionate words, a tear slid down Qi Jun's cheek, and a smile suddenly appeared on her pale face.
It was as if he had suddenly realized something, or as if he had let go of something.
"Okay, then you have to take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back to you."
As soon as Qi Jun finished speaking, his body became ethereal and fleeting, transforming into wisps of blood-red fluff that slowly flowed into the magic array above the sky.
Upon seeing this, Jun Yi frantically hugged the person in his arms, but all his efforts were in vain.
Qi Jun still vanished, his body disappearing in his arms, turning into dust.
He stared at the sky in despair, sitting there with a heart as cold as ashes. Just as he summoned a dagger and plunged it into his heart, two magical artifacts flew to his front—
One was Qi Jun's red robe, and the other was his treasured sword.
Then came a gentle voice: "Be good, wait for me to come back."
Hearing Qi's dying words, Jun Yi's eyes seemed to ignite with hope. He reached out and tightly hugged the two magical treasures. "Alright, I will wait for you to come back. It's a deal!"
"I'll wait for you here... I'm not going anywhere else."
"Immortal Lord... Immortal Lord..."
"You promised me, why haven't you come yet?"
"Qi, I miss you so much..."
...
"Jun Yi!"
"Junyi, wake up!"
An anxious call in his ear jolted Jun Yi awake. He opened his startled eyes and grabbed Ye Luo tightly.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Feeling his slightly trembling hands and hearing his rapid breathing, Ye Luo looked surprised and comforted him by pressing her cheek against his, "It's alright, it's alright, you're just being haunted?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi tightened his arms, buried his face in the crook of his neck, greedily inhaling his scent, and after a long while whispered, "Don't leave me again..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo's face froze, and her nose instantly stung with tears. "Silly girl, didn't I come back?"
Jun Yi looked up at him blankly, as if confirming something, and gently kissed his eyebrows and eyes, all the tenderness in his heart turning into a kiss on his lips.
Gentle yet restrained, it also seems to be devout and cherished.
Ye Luo smiled with her eyes closed, feeling a slight soreness in her nose, and leaned forward to offer her soft lips.
The fusion of their two auras sent a tingling sensation through their hearts, stirring their souls and weaving a tight web of love.
He was bound, and so was he.
Their lips parted, they embraced and smiled at each other, and of all that had happened, they could only cherish their beloved.
