1424, orphaned and impoverished

w... But the formation won't hold until midday tomorrow."Shen Qingrui's expression grew increasingly ferocious. She pulled me to the center of the formation.There was a coffin there.The pitch-black ou...Feeling uneasy

I didn't notice any significant changes in my emotions.

Jiang Qiyun frowned and stepped in front of me.

People came and went at the entrance of the residential building. I didn't dare to make any big movements.

"Maybe... there are too many things going on, and I'm a little overwhelmed..." I answered softly.

Jiang Qiyun shook his head. "No, you're afraid of something subconsciously."

"Huh"

Jiang Qiyun raised his hand and gently pinched my chin, whispering, "When you were afraid of me before, it was this kind of emotion... Your eyes held a trace of fear, as if I were some terrifying thing, making you unable to resist, yet desperately wanting to run away..."

"...Why do you still have such emotions now"

He asked me.

But I don't know how to answer.

I hadn't noticed that I had such emotions.

"Is it… because you've seen… him" Jiang Qiyun suddenly asked.

"Him Who" I tilted my head in confusion.

"The Northern Divine of the Demon Realm, the Black Emperor of Heaven." Jiang Qiyun stated directly. "He's no ordinary person. Did you see him and get frightened"

"I, I couldn't see him clearly either. I just felt like something on him... was moving, like some kind of living thing. I only saw a black silhouette..."

I raised my hand and tapped my head. It really hurt. If I could have seen clearly, maybe I wouldn't be so afraid.

Now that I think about it, it's terrifying. What was on the Northern Divine Being's body Was it a snake Or something else entirely It felt like a monster that would eat people.

Jiang Qiyun let out a light sigh and, taking my hand, swiftly pulled me into a narrow alley.

Such alleys are just gaps between houses and are generally unfrequented.

He lowered his head, pulling me into his embrace, his icy lips brushing gently against mine.

Fear, is a kind of demon.

When you are afraid, confused, surprised, or curious... some demons will quietly breed. This is not conducive to cultivation, and it's even bad for your body and spirit... Don't think about it anymore, obey.

"I..." I wanted to say that I was obedient.

But controlling one's mind is a very high level of practice. I haven't reached that ability yet to stop myself from overthinking.

Jiang Qiyun didn't say much, he just soothed my emotions with a kiss.

He was inherently cold, perhaps because he was born a god, the ruler of the underworld, in charge of reincarnation in the desolate realm, which made his body cold and icy as well.

But his touch always sends shivers down my spine, a delicate pull that unravels my strength, turning it into a soft, yielding thread, willingly surrendering to the palm of his hand.

"Don't overthink it... It is better to remain unyielding yet composed, and speak little rather than exhaust oneself with words. ...Hmm"

Jiang Qiyun pressed his lips against mine, these words passing between our tongues. Though he was admonishing me, speaking reason, there was a layer of alluring beauty added to them.

Maintain an unyielding form through stillness and silence. Speaking too much and elaborately will only exhaust one's vitality; it is better to adhere to the "Dao".

》》》

Jiang Qiyun's unique way of reprimanding me left my mind blank.

I had even forgotten that I was outside, forgotten that beyond this tiny crack there were people coming and going.

And this kind of posture of mine easily makes people think "something's wrong with me".

"Girl!" a shout pulled me back from my hazy stupor.

Outside the alley, a community auntie with red armbands glared at me seriously, her eyes flashing with sharp daggers. "What are you doing here! How come you're appearing and disappearing like a ghost You're not on drugs, are you!"

"Huh!" I yelped, scrambling back and pushing against Jiang Qiyun's chest with both hands.

The older woman was chubby, and she wasn't too keen on squeezing into this narrow gap. She blocked the entrance and said, "Look at you, so young and pretty, why don't you behave! Come with me, I'll take you to the police station and have your guardian pick you up!"

"No, no, no, Auntie, you misunderstood. I, I... I'm a little dizzy, I just need to find somewhere to lean and rest for a bit..." I hurriedly raised my hand to wipe my mouth.

This isn't lying, is it I was really dizzy after Jiang Qiyun kissed me.

Aunt frowned and stared at me for a moment, then nodded. "Well, you look clear-eyed, and you don't seem like you're on drugs...Silly child, if you weren't feeling well, wouldn't it be better to ask for help on the street You ran all the way to this back alley and fainted, no one would even see you! Come out."

I was forced to go out, and Auntie reached out and tugged me, muttering, "You're so cold! Go home and rest quickly, don't play outside anymore!"

"Alright, alright... Thank you, Auntie." I scrambled forward hastily, trying to escape Auntie's sharp gaze.

I sat on the bench by the roadside waiting for Jiang Qiyun. I waited and waited for half a day, but he never showed up.

This guy just left me like this Could something urgent have happened

I thought about it and decided to head home myself. Jiang Qiyun's unpredictable nature wouldn't change, and who knows, maybe he had an urgent matter or official business to attend to...

"Ouch..." I stood up and just as I turned around, I bumped into someone.

I covered my nose and apologized, "Sorry, how could you not... watch the... road..." I stood up, the other person was walking, they should have been able to dodge me.

"What road do I look at I only look at you." The cold voice still carried a hint of displeasure.

I was startled and looked up. Jiang Qiyun was wearing awkward civilian clothes and had donned his own avatar, standing stiffly before me.

"You...you...you..." You changed your avatar!

These celestial immortals were accustomed to coming and going like the wind and clouds. Their physical forms seemed like shackles, constricting them and making them feel awkward.

"...Then I can keep you company." Jiang Qiyun frowned, with a reluctant expression on his face.

"Mmm..." I stifled a laugh. "Thank you, Your Majesty~~~"

He can actually be considerate too.

It's such a rare treat to spend time with someone like Jiang Qiyun, I don't even want to go to the hospital and run into Song Wei.

After thinking it over, I still couldn't let go of my only classmate and best friend. So I took Jiang Qiyun's hand and went to the hospital where Song Wei's mother worked.

This is a comprehensive hospital, with many people coming and going. Song Wei had arrived earlier, her mother was just about to change shifts and went to the department to change clothes.

Song Wei glanced at Jiang Qiyun beside me, nodded in greeting, and then whispered, pulling my arm, "My mom went to change clothes. I've been asking around, that so-called master was involved in a car accident not long ago and was sent here... He still has a plaster cast on one leg and can only limp around with crutches. He claims to be able to tell fortunes about careers, relationships, good luck and bad luck He's had a misfortune himself! It's just like my mom, this kind of middle-aged woman, who would fall for such scams!"

"Alright, alright... I'll take a look for you in a bit. Who knows, he might actually be a master! If it turns out to be fake, I'll expose him!"

“Yes! I definitely have to expose him in front of my mom!” Song Wei exclaimed, pulling out a small notebook. It seemed that being a frontline reporter had made her develop the habit of jotting down notes wherever she went, "Xiao Qiao, this master is in room number 1206, bed number two, his name…his last name is He!"

What

Master He!

"Couldn't it be He, the master who ran away before! We got his Soul-Calling Lantern and destroyed his "Gathering Ghosts Cave," he's nowhere to be found."
