Chapter 44 Traveling the World 15



A beautiful night...

As dawn broke, Xiao Mo woke up and, seeing Yun Qi still fast asleep, couldn't help but kiss her.

"Mmm..." Yun Qi was awakened by the kiss. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Xiao Mo looking at her with a smile.

Yunqi blushed and buried herself in the blanket.

"Sister, don't be shy."

Yunqi felt refreshed, which must have been because Xiao Mo had helped her clean up.

"Sister, are you alright?"

"It's all your fault. I told you I didn't want it, but you still...you still...came..."

"It's not my fault... My sister begged so softly... that made me want it even more... I still want it now..."

"No! No more!" Yunqi couldn't help but whine, "Xiao Mo, I'm so tired~"

Xiao Mo kissed Yun Qi's forehead: "Be good, I won't bother you, you can sleep a little longer."

"But I'm a little hungry..."

Xiao Mo fed Yun Qi, and after Yun Qi finished eating, she fell into a deep sleep again.

Yunqi didn't wake up until noon.

Xiao Mo walked in at this moment and helped Yun Qi get dressed.

Yunqi blushed and quickly stopped her, saying, "I...I can do it myself."

"What haven't I seen, sister? Come on, get dressed! Do you still want to go to the human realm?!"

"Yes! I want to go!"

Since they'd already been completely honest with each other and done everything they were supposed to do, what was there to be shy about? Yun Qi readily accepted Xiao Mo helping her get dressed, while Xiao Mo started blushing...

Yunqi pinched that outrageously handsome face: "My little Mo'er is shy too!!"

Xiao Mo's face turned bright red: "Sister!!"

Hearing Yunqi call him 'her little Mo'er', Xiao Mo felt more satisfied than ever before.

"My little Mo'er is so cute."

Xiao Mo's face turned even redder: "Sister! If you keep this up, you won't be getting out of bed today!"

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore."

Xiao Mo dressed Yun Qi in her clothes and put a cloak on her, treating her like a fragile doll.

Yunqi currently has no cultivation, so she cannot fly on a sword or use teleportation arrays.

Xiao Mo released an airship, and he helped Yun Qi inside. The airship was fully equipped, a complete home, and it was clear that Xiao Mo had put a lot of thought into arranging everything.

The airship slowly sailed towards the human realm, and bought a luxurious carriage at the nearest market, decorating it according to the original carriage of Yunqi.

The carriage slowly made its way towards the human realm. Xiao Mo did not hire a driver; instead, the little Pixiu drove the carriage from the outside. The little Pixiu had now transformed into the shape of a cat to avoid causing panic in the human realm.

Why would a little Pixiu know how to drive a carriage? A little Pixiu is a mythical beast, after all; controlling the direction of a horse is a piece of cake for it!

Yunqi was somewhat surprised: "You still remember what my carriage looked like back then?"

It seems that Xiao Mo cares about her more than she imagined!

Xiao Mo put his arm around Yun Qi and adjusted her to a comfortable position: "Of course I remember. When you saved me, I thought you were a fairy from heaven!"

"He was just a little kid back then, and now he's all grown up..."

"I am so glad that my sister saved me back then, otherwise I would never have met her... Now, being able to become her Daoist partner feels like a dream."

Yunqi asked somewhat shyly, "Where do we go next?"

"Of course, it's about sightseeing and enjoying delicious food."

Xiao Mo and Yun Qi didn't have a specific destination in mind. They would stop in each city they passed through for a while to learn about the local customs and culture and sample various delicacies...

Little Wuxie (the Pixiu) was having a blast! He never imagined human food could be so delicious!! Even though there were a lot of impurities, what did it matter? He was a Pixiu!! He could eat anything!!

Upon arriving in a city, Yunqi noticed many beggars and inquired about the reason. It turned out they were refugees who had fled from war and had no one to rely on but themselves, leaving them no choice but to become beggars...

Yunqi wanted to do something...

Xiao Mo offered his unconditional support.

Knowing that the city lord was troubled by the resettlement of these refugees, Yunqi came up with a plan for him. The city lord was overjoyed and asked Zhao Shouwei to assist Yunqi and the others.

The two men set up a soup kitchen at the city gate and posted a notice that any homeless person or beggar who registered could receive soup. Of course, anyone who caused trouble would be imprisoned...

Everyone cooperated by registering their household registration and then went to the porridge stall next door to get porridge.

Xiao Mo hired two middle-aged women to help distribute the porridge, mainly because he was afraid that Yun Qi would get tired and he didn't want her to do it herself.

Looking at the handsome and beautiful young couple, the older woman couldn't help but exclaim, "Young lady, your husband truly dotes on you! You are so blessed!"

Yunqi smiled and nodded: "Yes. My husband dotes on me!"

In the following days of distributing porridge, some ordinary people who wanted to take advantage of the free porridge occasionally sneaked in, as well as some local thugs, but they were all arrested by Zhao Shouwei and his men...

The thugs were cursing and swearing as they were being arrested, basically saying, "Why are you arresting me?! This is free porridge, why can't I take some?!"

Yunqi thought this was perfectly normal; it's just human nature...

"Sister, why do you give out porridge every day? They won't thank you for it." Xiao Mo also understood the inherent flaws in people. At first, these people might thank you for keeping them from going hungry, but people are inherently greedy. Once they get used to it, they will want to take more.

“I don’t need their thanks. I just want to help those who are struggling to survive.”

Xiao Mo looked at Yun Qi quietly, as if he was thinking about something.

Yunqi pinched Xiao Mo's cheek: "Don't overthink it. Just consider it a sudden act of kindness on my part."

The list of displaced people has been completed, and Zhao Shouwei has posted a new notice: All registered residents are citizens of this city! The soup kitchens will continue to operate free of charge, with each person receiving soup once a day. Residents without land can register to receive a plot of wasteland outside the city (those receiving wasteland can receive soup twice a day). Seeds and farming tools will be provided by the government; half of the harvested grain will be handed over to the government, and the other half will be kept for personal use. Soup distribution will continue until the harvest, after which it will be discontinued. Those without housing can register for housing free of charge; housing will be provided temporarily by the government. Those who cultivate the land for five years will be allocated land and housing. Anyone found causing trouble or engaging in illegal trading will be punished with fifty strokes of the cane and expelled from the city!
