2382 Deserted Garden

Jian Fengchi raised his hands to cover his eyes. “I promise I won’t look.”

Mu Hongyu didn’t really believe him and stared at him suspiciously.

The corner of Jian Fengchi’s lips curled up. “Don’t worry. I’ll only look if you allow me to.”

Mu Hongyu grunted lightly, turned around, and removed the clothes on her shoulders to apply the medicine.

Jian Fengchi really waited at the side.

When Mu Hongyu was done handling the wound, she said, “I’m done.”

Jian Fengchi then put his hand down, and his gaze swept across her shoulders. He said, “You can say it now, right?”

Mu Hongyu paused and said, “Actually, it’s nothing much. I just planned to directly enter the Fantasy Divine Sea to try, but I didn’t succeed and was squeezed out by the turbulence. It’s just like that.”

Jian Fengchi knitted his brows slightly. “It’s too risky to do that when you haven’t broken through to the Great Advanced Realm.”

Mu Hongyu shrunk her neck. “I was just trying… However, I did gain something—at least I know that I should avoid that area next time.”

Jian Fengchi stared at her with a meticulous gaze. “No, with your current skills, you wouldn’t have such an injury. You…”

“Ahem, I left in a hurry and wasn’t paying attention, so I ended up like this.” Mu Hongyu didn’t expect him to have such an understanding of the matter, so she could only admit it honestly.

Jian Fengchi raised his brows and asked, “What was the hurry?”

Mu Hongyu spread her hands. “Someone suddenly came over. How could I not be anxious? If I was any slower, I would be discovered.”

“Who was it?”

“Um, I’m not too sure either…” Mu Hongyu bit her lips and muttered with some uncertainty, “I think it was the First Deity, but it didn’t really look like him…”

Jian Fengchi said coldly, “At this moment, other than him, who else can enter and leave the Fantasy Divine Sea as they wished?”

They could basically confirm that it was the First Deity.

Mu Hongyu shook her head. “But that person seemed rather familiar… as if I had seen him somewhere before. However, I ran too quickly, so I didn’t have the time to think of this.”

“Familiar? I heard that the First Deity rarely comes out of the Fantasy Divine Hall. It’s hard for the deities to even see him. Why would you find him familiar?” Jian Fengchi was very confused.

Mu Hongyu paused for a moment and sighed. “Sigh, if only you were there, you would know why I said that. It’s really…”

She rubbed her temples in frustration.

Jian Fengchi’s heart tingled. “You’re saying… you feel that it’s also someone I know?”

Mu Hongyu nodded affirmatively. “Right!”

…

During this time, Xiao Ran succeeded in entering the Fantasy Divine Hall. He specifically asked Ruan Jianfeng about Chu Liuyue’s residence and walked over.

When he arrived at the place, Chu Liuyue was picking herbs in the yard.

“Little Yue’er!” Xiao Ran happily waved toward Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue looked up and saw that it was indeed him. She instantly smiled. “Congratulations, Senior Xiao Ran.”

She didn’t look shocked, clearly expecting Xiao Ran to come in.

As she spoke, she walked over to open the door.

Xiao Ran laughed out loud. “I came here to specifically thank you! If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how long I would have to wait before I could solve the last Xuan formation!”

Chu Liuyue’s eyes curved up as she invited Xiao Ran to sit. “You’re too kind. Actually, this is mainly because of yourself. If not, why are you the only one who can enter in the end when there was so many people watching me?”

Xiao Ran just needed a bit of inspiration, and she was coincidentally there to fill the gap.

Originally, walking the Star Path and entering the Fantasy Divine Hall was her most initial plan. It was purely an accident that she could help Xiao Ran, so she didn’t want to take credit for this.

However, Xiao Ran was still very grateful toward her as he smiled and said, “No matter what, I owe you a favor.”

Seeing him insist, Chu Liuyue smiled with pressed lips and did not reject him.

Seeing all sorts of herbs placed in the yard, Xiao Ran curiously asked, “Are you refining pills?”

“Yes.”

“An all-rounder is indeed different from me…” Xiao Ran felt overwhelmed. The moment she stepped into the Fantasy Divine Hall, she started refining pills. The key is: She is already a Supreme Physician… People really can’t be compared.

“I’m just producing it for fun.” Chu Liuyue laughed. “My Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi’er like these things very much, so I wanted to prepare these as snacks for them.”

Xiao Ran was speechless.

There was too much information in that one sentence, and he did not know how to continue.

After a moment, he said sincerely, “Little Yue’er, you’re already strong on your own, but your subordinates aren’t weak either…”

Even though they were the same as Chu Liuyue and didn’t have bloodline totems, their current situations were much better than the rest. It was really stunning.

“Perhaps they can come in as well after some time!”

Chu Liuyue smiled and did not speak. The Thirteen Yue Guards all have their own abilities. Whether they can come in or not all depends on them.

After handling the last few herbs, Chu Liuyue seemed to unwittingly ask, “Oh right, Senior Xiao Ran, there are many forbidden areas in this Fantasy Divine Hall. You must be more careful. Don’t be like me—I almost barged in.”

Xiao Ran said, “Of course, I know—what, did you say you almost barged in? Where are you talking about?”

He spoke halfway and suddenly reacted, and he hurriedly asked.

Chu Liuyue’s gaze flickered slightly as she smiled and said, “Don’t worry; I’m fine. After I went in, I was stopped by Second Deity. Luckily, Second Deity was magnanimous and didn’t punish me.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good, that’s good… You can’t trespass into the forbidden places of Fantasy Divine Hall. Second Deity should’ve considered that you just came to the Fantasy Divine Hall, so he didn’t pursue the matter. However, the Fantasy Divine Hall’s forbidden grounds are harder to get close to. Logically speaking, you can’t casually reach there. Where did you go?”

Chu Liuyue lightly laughed and said, “I don’t know where that is either, but I saw a peach blossom fly out when I stood outside the wall—”

Xiao Ran was shocked and suddenly stood up as he stared at her disbelief. “Deserted garden?! You actually went there?!”

It was the first time Chu Liuyue saw Xiao Ran have such a big reaction. She couldn’t help but pause and slowly ask, “…Deserted garden? Where’s that?”
