At the Green Cloud Immortal Sect.
Qiu Yun was drinking wine with a faint smile. Wei Li asked, âMr. Qiu, whatâs up?â
Qiu Yunâs smile broadened. âIâm happy.â
Wei Li looked at Qiu Yun and asked in confusion, âAre you happy that Mr. Mu completed the cultivation of Nine Yang Burning Heaven Manual?â
Qiu Yunâs face darkened, and he said sullenly, âMu Yun has completed his cultivation of the manual, but it is none of my business. Why should I feel happy?â
Wei Li asked, âMr. Qiu, then whyâ¦?â
âQiao Xiang got married, but Mr. Chen didnât come to pester me. Itâs such a joyful thing.â Qiu Yun thought to himself, âChen Lifeng might not come to bug me from now on since he didnât come this time. Itâs such a relief.â
âMr. Xiao has been away for more than twenty years. I wonder how he is doing now.â Wei Li sighed.
âXiao Jinting should be leading a carefree life, and he might have more children.â Qiu Yun thought indignantly, âXiao Jinting escaped and left me behind to be questioned repeatedly.â
âMr. Qiu, are you envious of Mr. Xiao?â
âWhy do you say that?â
âAre you envious that he has many children?â
âNot at all. Children are noisy and annoying.â
Wei Li was speechless.
âWhat are you guys talking about?â Mu Yun came over and asked.
Qiu Yun looked at Mu Yun with disgust. Mu Yun was unruffled as he was used to being treated coldly by Qiu Yun.
âThe Green Cloud Immortal Sect actually lets you in every time. Arenât they afraid that youâre a spy?â Chen Lifeng didnât come anymore, but Mu Yun came to see him every month.
Mu Yun smiled casually and said, âBeing a spy is far beneath my capability.â
Qiu Yun sneered, âThatâs true. You are a Nascent Soul. Why does Spiritual Medicine Sect let you out? Arenât they afraid that you will betray the sect?â
Mu Yun smiled indifferently and said, âNo one in Spiritual Medicine Sect can order me now.â
Qiu Yun nodded, âYeah, you have more power now. What a good thing.â
Wei Li frowned. Every time he listened to the conversation between Qiu Yun and Mu Yun, he felt worried for Qiu Yun.
Mu Yun glanced at Wei Li and beckoned him to leave. Wei Li left, relieved.
âDidnât Mr. Chen come to see you?â Mu Yun changed the topic.
Qiu Yun shook his head, âNo. The girl that married Qiao Xiang is named Luo Yuting. She is a pretty girl with good aptitude.â The story between Qiao Xiang and Chen Xu had been over long ago. If Chen Lifeng made things difficult for Qiao Xiang, people would think he regretted not marrying his grandson to Qiao Xiang.
âMr. Chen must feel bad now,â said Qiu Yun. Qiao Xiang was married, but Chen Xu had never been seen since he left.
âItâs been more than twenty years. I wonder when they will be back. Will they come back?â Qiu Yun muttered.
Mu Yun narrowed his eyes. âItâs been so long, but the Heavenly God Sect hasnât given up yet.â

On Nebula Island.
Xiao Xiaofan came out and saw Lei Xuan grill the fish near the fire, his cheeks red.
âLei Xuan, your face is so red! Do you still have the hangover from last night?â Xiao Xiaofan was confused.
Lei Xuan shook his head and said, âNo, Iâm fine. My face is red today.â Lei Xuan scratched his head and recalled what he had accidentally beheld, feeling flustered.
Xiao Xiaofan nodded and asked, âWhereâs Xiaodong?â
âHe is making babies with Chen Xu. Donât interrupt them,â Lei Xuan said.
Xiao Xiaofan widened his eyes and said, âXiaodong and Chen Xu?â Although Xiao Xiaofan was slow, he was over thirty and knew what Lei Xuan meant.
Lei Xuan nodded and said, âYeah.â
Xiao Xiaofan asked, âWhy does it happen so suddenly?â
Lei Xuan glanced at Xiao Xiaofan and said, âItâs not too sudden. Your brother is not a young man.â Lei Xuan said inwardly, âYou are not a young man either.â
Xiao Xiaofan glanced at Lei Xuan and met his eyes, his face reddening.
After so many years, slow as Xiao Xiaofan was, he vaguely knew how Lei Xuan felt for him. Xiao Xiaofan was flustered, muttering, âXiaodong seems to have liked Chen Xu for a long time, but he didnât made a move over these years. Why does he suddenly take action?â
Lei Xuan thought for a moment and said, âPerhaps it is because of you.â
Xiao Xiaofan was confused, âBecause of me? Why?â
âYou said that your big brother could screw nine women in one night, and that pheasant said that he was a virgin and an old bachelor,â said Lei Xuan.
Xiao Xiaofan rubbed his nose and said, âXiaodong easily gets upset.â
Lei Xuan was speechless.
