Chen Yi greeted as soon as Liu Xiao entered the great hall.

Inside the great hall, the four Peak Master are in the middle, sitting in a jade char while sipping in their teas and staring at each other intently with their serious expressions. Chen Yi was still looking at Liu Xiao's direction, looking around him and spoke,

As soon as Liu Xiao heard his name, his face soured and suddenly remembered all the humiliation he experienced at the underworld realm. He immediately composed himself back to his serene demeanor and replied,

Chen Yi understood but there was still a disappointment in her face, she then proceed to stood far away from the peak master while holding a tray of tea pot in her hands. Seeing that the four Peak Masters seem to talking about something important in a quiet way, Liu Xiao stood beside Chen Yi, lightly jabbing her.

Liu Xiao asked.

Chen Yi fixed the tilted jade tea pot in the tray before answering,

Communication array is a mind dimension where you can all talk about it inside the mind, you and your consented party on only hear and talk inside the communication array as long as you want, but communication array takes too much spiritual qi so people who are strong and had wide qi can only make it.

Liu Xiao can make communication array but it takes half of his spiritual qi so he used paper messenger instead to communicate from far away parties.

Liu Xiao asked.

Chen Yi:

GAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! ITS NOT THE DEMON CULT WE SHOULD BE TARGETING!!! IT'S THE FLOATING PALACE OLD GEEZER!!! THE FUCKING MASTERMIND OF THIS FUCKING---AHHH!!! I wan't to shout it out but we planned to stay low until the floating palace master expose himself or act suspicious because if we act reckless now, everything will be over. ( TДT)

Liu Xiao choked back on his thoughts and slowly replied,

Mo Xian ordered when he noticed that the two disciples were still at the great hall, whispering on each other.

Inside the chamber with the blooming plum blossom trees, Liu Xiao was staring at the black and purple ring in his left hand. While Wu Qingge sent him back to the Mortal realm and accompanied him until they were infront of the Mount Hua Peak, Wu Qingge went back to the underworld because of some important business but before he went back, he kissed Liu Xiao!

FUCK! DON'T THINK ABOUT IT! DON'T THINK ABOUT IT! AAAAHHHHHHHH! THAT WAS FUCKING EMBARASSING!!!

He pulled the black and purple out of his ring finger but it still won't budge and stayed on his finger. Liu Xiao gave up and went to change into sleeping robe, untied his hair that was in high ponytail and went to sleep.

Liu Xio yelled in confusion.

He glanced at the place he was in, there were bamboos all over the place and in the middle, there was a bamboo house and a large pond beside with fresh blooming lotuses. He then glanced at the bridge on the pond and redirected his gaze on the beautiful bamboo house.

He approached the pond, it's blue clear water sparkled from the ray of light that came from the sun. There were large and beautiful colored koi fish swimming un the clear pond while the lotus that were floating in the water slightly swayed from the wind. Liu Xiao lowered his hand to touch the pond water, it felt real... It was as if this place is real. His expression turned into bewilderment.

Liu Xiao flinched when a pair of footsteps resonated inside the beautiful bamboo house, he immediately jumped back and his right hand went to unsheate his sword---Wait! Where's my sword?!

Ah, shit! I put them in the table inside the chamber! Im fucking stupid! BUT WHO WOULD'VE EXPECTED THIS?! I WAS SLEEPING SOUNDLY EARLIER AND NOW I'M IN THIS SHIT PLACE?! (ノﾟДﾟ)

Liu Xiao released an orange spiritual qi out of his right hand, making the jewel on his forehead glowed orange and made a low clinging sound. The dancing orange spiritual qi on his hand was shaped into a blade, it's edge ws sharpe and the tip was pointed.

The footsteps that was echoing all over the bamboo forest became louder and louder, meaning that the footsteps were near on the bamboo house door. Liu Xiao readied his right hand to strike infront of the door but the person's voice made him halt and his killing intent dropped immediately.

Liu Xiao was surprised.

Liu Xiao lowered his hand when Wu Qingge opened the door, wearing a black thin sleep robe, his bare chest exposed. Liu Xiao rasied his eyebrows and took a few steps closer to the bamboo house.

Liu Xiao asked in irritation.

Seeing that Liu Xiao looked irritated, Wu Qingge imediately answered, Wu Qingge raised his left hand and pointed at the black and purple ring in his ring finger.

Liu Xiao frowned and glanced at his own ring and gazed back to Wu Qingge who was grinning and leaning on the door while staring at him.

IMPORTANT BUSINESS MY ASS!!! YOU JUST WENT BACK TO THE UNDERWORLD AND TRIED THIS SHIT OUT! I REALLY CAN'T WITH THIS MAN! SOMEONE HURRY UP AND TRANSMIGRATE AND REPLACE MY POSITION!!!!

Wu Qingge chuckled while staring at Liu Xiao's grumpu expression, he found it adorable and went to approach Liu Xiao but Liu Xiao immediately backed off with his hand in X position.

Seeing Liu Xiao's flustered and nervous look, Wu Qingge couldn't help but laugh out loud and continued to approach Liu Xiao. Liu Xiao was deciding whether to slice his neck or make him unconcious but in the middle of him deciding, Wu Qingge's arms wer already wrapping around his waist, his face leaning closer to him.

Liu Xiao's eye widened and pushed Wu Qingge's face.

Wu Qingge snuggled on Liu Xiao's shoulder while hugging him tightly,

Wu Qingge glance at him with an innocent look,

Liu Xiao snapped,

Wu Qingge laughed and carried him inside the bamboo house, the walls and the floor were painted white and the house looked refreshing and peaceful, beside it was a balcony that was facing the beautiful pond, you can also put your feet down to soak on the pond and there was a large white bed in the middle of the bamboo house.

Seeing the large bed, Liu Xiao's eyes widened again and struggled in Wu Qingge'os grasp.

Wu Qingge ignored him and gently put his struggling body in the soft white bed, he then laid beside Liu Xiao and hugged him. Liu Xiao let out a sigh of relief and rest a bit because his body felt tired.

Wu Qingge chuckled and snuggled beside him. Liu Xiao sighed and let him be while they both laid in one bed together silently.

Liu Xiao suddenly woke up finding that he was still inside his chambers at the Mount Hua Peak. He glanced at the black and purpe ring in his finger and went to change his clothing and tied his hair while wearing the light blue crown.

While he was in the middle of fixing the light blue jade crown in front of the bronze mirror, a knock was heard and the door of his chambers opened up and a Mount Hua Peak disciple appeared.

Liu Xiao glanced back at him, ignoring the disciple who opened the door withour consent because he doesn't mind and repied simply,

After he fixed the light blue jade crown that was slightly tinted in his head, he hanged his sword on his waist and grabbed the small pouch that was full of small biscuits inside then left and went straight to the great hall.

Lan yang and Bai Lan were three meters from each other, crossing their arms and their face were wearing the usual grumpy expression, Shan Ling and Chen Yi were standing in the middle with barely space left while Shan Ling was clinging on her and repeately calling her "Jiejie". Liu Xiao's face soured a bit because he felt lonely and went back to his serene demeanor while he walked to th front of the great hall where the four Peak Masters were standing proud and the disciples were watching in the sides.

Liu Xiao: Zhan Baiwon and Su Luxia nodded in him in reruen, Mo Xian smied at him while Tian Lang arched his brows and covered his half face with his fan.

Chen Yi glanced at him with a scowl,

Liu Xiao pressed his lips and just shrugged, Chen Yi rolled her eyes and directed her atantion on the four peak masters on the front while ignoring Shan Ling beside her who was still calling her "Jiejie" repeatedly while clinging on her just to get her attention.

Zhan Baiwon cleared his throat before speaking with a loud manly voice,

The direct disciples and the Mount Hua disciples who were far away at the corner of the great hall listened intently.

Zhan Baiwon then continued seeing that the disicples were listening,

Bai Lan asked.

Su Luxia:

Tian Lang:

Mo Xian:

After the five of them changed into a much simple clothing, they packed all of their belongings and went to the usual carriage and their usual group. Liu Xiao was resting on his arms and sitting comfortably while munching the small crackers in the jade table while he's alone inside the carriage.

I miss him. What is he doing right now?
