SQLJBFDTW Chapter 94

With a deafening crash, the house wall collapsed.

The surrounding neighbors heard the earth-shattering noise and rushed out into the rain. They were stunned to see the empty house in the alley reduced to rubble.

They remarked how fortunate it was that no one lived there, or they would surely have been crushed to death.

“It’s been in disrepair for years, it’s fine that it collapsed, let’s report it when the rain stops!” an elder declared, calling everyone to disperse. The rain was heavy, and the crowd quickly scattered.

The rain conveniently concealed the array cast by Yu Wei.

The three arrived at the waterway where the array was activated, and a small boat was conveniently waiting. Chao Jianxue pushed Mo Zezhi, who stumbled and fell into the cabin, glaring back at him.

Chao Jianxue really didn’t mean to. He forgot that Mo Zezhi was covered in injuries and couldn’t withstand even a gentle push. But Mo Zezhi’s gaze was fierce, as arrogant as before, so Chao Jianxue glared back.

He exclaimed, “What kind of array is this? Do we have to take a boat? Can’t you just use a normal teleportation array to send me back?”

The man was truly ignorant. Chao Jianxue didn’t stand on ceremony, using a spell to tie him up again: “Shut up.”

Mo Zezhi scoffed, sizing him up: “Aren’t you a useless failure at cultivation? What kind of evil art did you use to reach the Mahayana stage?”

Chao Jianxue’s eyes twitched, trying to seal his mouth, but he shouted, “If you seal me, I won’t help you testify!”

He was now fearless, like a mad dog barking wildly.

Annoyed, Chao Jianxue got up and went to the bow of the boat, sitting with Yu Wei. Mo Zezhi was still shouting behind them: “Why are you leaving? Are you afraid to sit with me! Hey—get back here—”

Chao Jianxue rolled his eyes and moved closer to Yu Wei.

Yu Wei said, “The array will be easier to cast when the boat reaches open water.”

Chao Jianxue nodded: “Are we taking him back to One Leaf Boat or the Demon Realm? Is it convenient for you?”

Yu Wei said, “Let’s go to my place. It’s annoying to listen to him.”

“That’s true,” Chao Jianxue replied, but after a moment of thought, he said, “I want to go to One Leaf Boat too. I want to be with you.”

The thought of separating from Yu Wei when they returned to the Xuanzhen Realm made him feel lonely.

The Ascension Festival in the Demon Realm had just passed, and there wasn’t much to do. Besides, Qing Tu Liu and Elder Lin were in charge of his territory, so it didn’t matter if he went back or not.

Yu Wei’s eyes were like gentle water, the rain-blurred scenery blending into a landscape painting, reflected in their eyes.

“Okay.”

Water vapor turned into mist, enveloping the surface of the water and them within it, a chaotic dance of white rain.

After a short silence, Mo Zezhi started yelling again: “Are you two crazy? Water’s getting into the boat! It’s going to sink! Are you trying to drown me?”

They were enjoying the beautiful rainy scenery, how could he ruin the mood? Chao Jianxue turned his head, staring at him with a menacing gaze. For a moment, demonic energy solidified, pressing down and gripping Mo Zezhi’s throat. A demonic mark faintly glowed on his forehead.

Mo Zezhi suddenly resembled a duck with its neck strangled, shutting his mouth, but soon revealed a knowing, malicious smile.

Rain poured into the cabin, but the two at the bow seemed oblivious. Mo Zezhi’s heels were already submerged in water. He twisted as he stood, muttering, “Two idiots in the rain.”

Just as he was about to walk to the bow, the boat suddenly shook, and Mo Zezhi fell back onto the wooden bench.

“Who’s there! Who!” His face was pale, thinking Mo Tanzhou had found him. He curled up instantly, shouting for help with wide, bloodshot eyes.

Chao Jianxue turned back and said, “It’s just the array activating.”

Looking out from the stern, the fine white rain seemed to freeze in mid-air. Even a black carp jumped out of the water, also suspended, its tail frozen in place, a water droplet hanging five inches from the water.

Suddenly, a semi-transparent, crystal-colored lotus flower grew out of the water, the water droplet flowing into the lotus stamen. Mo Zezhi saw it clearly, his eyes wide. In an instant, it was as if the rain lines were being pulled back to the sky. In a flash, they were no longer in the mortal realm.

“What… what is this?” Mo Zezhi had never seen such an array.

After many years, he arrived in the Xuanzhen Realm again. Even breathing the air of the Xuanzhen Realm felt like a dream. He was about to laugh, but suddenly started coughing violently.

Seeing him coughing as if he were about to cough up his lungs, Chao Jianxue turned to Yu Wei with a questioning look.

Yu Wei said, “He’s been in the mortal realm for too long and isn’t used to the spiritual energy of the Xuanzhen Realm. He’ll be fine in a moment. What about you? Do you feel any discomfort?”

Chao Jianxue cleared his throat, stretching his body lightly, without any discomfort. He said, “I’m fine!”

Yu Wei smiled faintly.

One Leaf Boat seemed to change according to Yu Wei’s will. When the three returned to One Leaf Boat, a habitable pavilion had appeared out of nowhere above the lotus pond.

Water pavilions and towers were all there. The sky was clear. Facing the water pavilion were lotus leaves that reached the sky, able to look out at the white jade building on the shore.

Chao Jianxue plunged into the house. The furnishings were exquisite and arranged according to his habits. He was surprised and asked, “When did you prepare this?”

To prepare such a house, Yu Wei couldn’t have just snapped his fingers and had One Leaf Boat build it, right?

Yu Wei entered, answering him, “I started preparing before I opened One Leaf Boat.”

“Oh?”

His brow didn’t furrow, but a bitter smile spread across his lips: “It was when we returned to the sect from the Northern Border.”

Chao Jianxue paused, instantly recalling their conversation on the city wall. It turned out that Yu Wei had already woven his future tightly with his own.

“After that, since senior brother wasn’t here, this place was useless. The way it is now, is how I rebuilt it after returning from senior brother’s side.”

Hearing this, Chao Jianxue understood why he had left in a hurry and hadn’t contacted him for several days. He had been busy with this.

He licked his lips sheepishly, saying, “I’ll build a house for you at my place too, so it’ll be convenient for you to stay over.”

Yu Wei smiled, “Okay.”

“Hey!” Mo Zezhi’s impatient voice came from outside the house, “Where are you going to lock me up? What are you whispering about!”

So Chao Jianxue asked Yu Wei to wait in the house, and he took Mo Zezhi to the house next door himself.

He would only feel at ease with him living under his nose, otherwise he was really afraid Mo Zezhi would sneak out at the slightest disagreement.

“Chao Jianxue, who exactly is that Yu guy?” Mo Zezhi asked suddenly.

Chao Jianxue glanced at him, saying, “Didn’t Mo Tanzhou tell you everything that happened in the Xuanzhen Realm?”

“Don’t mention that name to me!” Hearing those three words again, Mo Zezhi’s face twisted slightly. “In his eyes, I’m nothing more than a piece of meat! What do you think he did to me!”

Chao Jianxue was yelled at by him and suddenly felt that he was quite pitiful.

He had originally considered himself a chosen son of heaven, but he had turned into this. Anyone would go crazy.

“Yu Wei is from the Dongyuan Yu Clan,” he said.

Mo Zezhi chewed over the four words “Dongyuan Yu Clan” twice and sneered: “Are people from the Dongyuan Yu Clan playing the fool in the Wuwu Sect?”

Chao Jianxue ignored him, and he asked: “How is the Tianyao Sect now? Did Mo Tanzhou become the sect leader?”

“No. The old sect leader is still in power.”

Mo Zezhi said viciously, “That old thing has lived long enough, why didn’t he kill him sooner.”

Chao Jianxue pondered again and again, then used a spell to undo his restraints: “You can stay here, but don’t think about going out. Someone will bring you food.”

Mo Zezhi stared at him with a dark gaze.

Just as Chao Jianxue was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly pounced on him, pretending to strangle his throat.

However, Chao Jianxue was prepared, turning slightly to the side. Mo Zezhi rolled forward due to a hidden problem in his legs. He clicked his tongue, still reaching out to grab him.

“You’re like this, and you still want my life?”

Mo Zezhi’s breath was disordered, struggling with both hands, but Chao Jianxue easily subdued him, and he slowly stopped moving.

After Chao Jianxue let him go, he struggled to get up from the ground, turned over, and looked up at him.

“Why… why are you guys living so well?”

Chao Jianxue saw the tears in his eyes, feeling emotional, but only emotional.

“For no reason. Evil deeds beget evil results. Since you did it in the first place, you should have thought that there would be a time to repay the evil results.”

Mo Zezhi’s gaze fell on him, visibly stunned, and then suddenly laughed, laughing hysterically.

Chao Jianxue frowned.

Then he heard him laugh as he said, “So you’re the same as me… hahaha! So you’re just a plaything lying under someone else! Hehehehe!”

He laughed very hard, as if he was about to vomit. Chao Jianxue realized that his sleeve had just been pulled by him, revealing a red mark on his neck.

“Say whatever you want. Stay here peacefully for the next few days, no one will find you.”

He indifferently stepped over him and walked out.

Mo Zezhi might have never experienced what “like” is, what “love” is. In his eyes, lying under a man is the most shameful thing, no matter who the other person is.

He used to treat others as playthings. After the situation was reversed, he naturally couldn’t accept it, and his mind was twisted as well.

Yu Wei heard their conversation. After Chao Jianxue walked over, he reached out and helped Chao Jianxue tidy up his clothes until the red marks were completely covered.

Chao Jianxue smiled: “You didn’t listen to his nonsense, did you?”

Yu Wei slightly lifted his eyes, suppressing those dark eyes.

“If senior brother doesn’t want others to see, I will restrain myself in the future…”

Chao Jianxue’s eyes widened: “You really listened? Are you stupid!”

“…”

He said seriously, “Our affairs have nothing to do with him. Besides, I’m willing to let you kiss me! I’m willing to kiss you too! Forget what he just said, and remember what I’m telling you now!”

Yu Wei said “mm.”

Chao Jianxue asked: “Do you remember? Answer me.”

Yu Wei said clearly, “I remember.”

Chao Jianxue then happily hugged him and returned to the house, originally wanting to be shameless and affectionate again, but Yu Wei still had One Leaf Boat affairs to deal with, so he had to send him back to White Jade Tower first.

When Yu Wei returned by moonlight, Chao Jianxue had already fallen asleep.

He silently came to Chao Jianxue’s side, his gaze tracing over his eyebrows and eyes, finally landing on those intimate kisses.

“Senior brother…” he whispered, but Chao Jianxue didn’t hear him.

Yu Wei smiled gently, bending down to place new kisses on those kisses.

—Naive!

A demonic sound suddenly pierced through his consciousness.

Yu Wei frowned, once again strangling it to death in the endless spiritual sea. He had done it many times, and the action was already very skilled, but fear still surged in his heart.
