    Chapter Index

    On the first night on the airship, Yun Xia spent it on the deck.

    At night, everyone returned to their rooms to rest. When Huai Ying and the others saw him, he didn’t know where he had moved a low couch from, placing it at the bow of the ship.

    At this moment, the bright moon hung high in the sky. Because the airship was in the air, the moon appeared extremely large.

    Yun Xia was half-reclined on the low couch, with a small table beside him, laden with snacks.

    He ate snacks while reading a book, occasionally looking up to admire the moon.

    “Hahaha, Yun Xia, Senior Brother, you’re really enjoying yourself! I thought you’d be down and out after being kicked out by Esteemed Lord again,” Gong Qiu piped up beside him, squatting on the ground to pick up a snack to eat.

    Yun Xia didn’t even turn his head, “Why bring up the one thing I don’t want to talk about?”

    Zhu Wan’er giggled, “I think you’re used to it.”

    Yun Xia sighed, throwing the book onto the table, “This habit isn’t good, ah. What are you guys doing out here? Not sleeping?”

    “What’s so important about sleeping? We’re here to keep you company!” Gong Qiu said.

    Yun Xia rolled his eyes at him, “Do you think I believe that?”

    “Hehe,” Gong Qiu scratched his head.

    Huai Ying said, “We didn’t find an opportunity today, so we’re looking for you now. Yun Xia, Junior Brother, don’t you think it’s a little… exaggerated that the head senior brother came to pick us up personally? I feel like it’s not real.”

    Yun Xia understood perfectly. After all, in the original book, they were all cannon fodder, very peripheral and corner-of-the-page characters, existing only to fill out the world-building settings.

    It was just that his arrival had changed many things. Those small pawns that were thrown out actually gained considerable things, so the people above naturally had to take them seriously.

    But what they valued was not actually them, but Mo Jun Zhou.

    But Xiao Nanli coming in person was indeed unexpected for Yun Xia.

    After briefly reassuring them, Yun Xia said, “Don’t worry too much about it. Did you forget something? Where are we going next?”

    “Of course, we’re going back to the Immortal Sect. Oh, no, we’re going to Chixia to pick up Junior Sister Su Rou. Could it be…”

    Yun Xia nodded, “I guess that’s the reason.”

    Su Rou, a fairly important female supporting character in the original book, was a childhood sweetheart with the male lead Xiao Nanli and the precious daughter of the Great Elder.

    So Xiao Nanli probably came to pick her up.

    As for them, it was probably just incidental. Xiao Nanli coming in person also conveniently demonstrated the importance he placed on them.

    Then, they chatted about the Immortal Sect and the future.

    Unconsciously, Huai Ying had already regarded Yun Xia as their pillar. Although Yun Xia often seemed unreliable, especially when he was with Mo Jun Zhou.

    But it had to be said that he would be serious when he needed to be, and he would become very dependable.

    Their conversation lasted until the second half of the night. The unease that Huai Ying had felt throughout the day had been lessened by Yun Xia’s words, and he was finally willing to go back to sleep peacefully.

    Gong Qiu and Zhu Wan’er had been pulled out by him, and at this time, they were yawning incessantly, eager to return to their cabins to sleep.

    Seeing this, Huai Ying helplessly let them go. He looked up at the sky and said to Yun Xia, “Junior Brother, why don’t you go back to sleep? It’s not good to always sleep outside. You can’t sleep well here.”

    Yun Xia sighed, “It’s okay, Senior Brother, you go back to sleep. Don’t worry about me. You don’t understand the helplessness of those of us who have a family.”

    Huai Ying: “…”

    He spoke as if he had experienced a lot. They were just two ignorant little children bickering.

    But he was too lazy to care and couldn’t do anything about it, so he shook his head and went back to sleep.

    Yun Xia was also sleepy after saying so much. Soon, under the moonlight, his eyelids fluttered open and closed until he finally closed them completely.

    Not long after he fell asleep, a figure slowly walked out from the side and stood in front of Yun Xia.

    Under the bright moonlight, Xiao Nanli’s handsome face was expressionless as he looked down at the sleeping man.

    Yun Xia’s face was slightly turned to the side, and the pressure on his cheek made his lips slightly open, and the bulge of flesh looked like it would feel good to touch.

    It was still that face, but it was unfamiliar.

    Xiao Nanli once again used the Spirit Transmission Seal to transmit a message to Yun Xia. At such a close distance, there was no delay at all.

    But Yun Xia didn’t move at all, as if he hadn’t received his message at all.

    It was no different from his previous attempts.

    What was the problem here? Why did the Spirit Transmission Seal suddenly fail? It was impossible for Yun Xia to do this with his abilities.

    Could it be… related to that Venerable Demon Lord?

    He pondered for a long time, while the sleeping Yun Xia had no idea that someone was watching him.

    After falling asleep, his body was no longer under his control. At this moment, he mumbled and stretched, and his hand bumped against the edge of the low couch.

    He frowned, seemingly hurt by the bump, but he didn’t wake up. Instead, he muttered something.

    Seeing his cute appearance, the coldness in Xiao Nanli’s eyes softened a little.

    At this moment, Yun Xia suddenly turned over, and his whole body fell to the side.

    Xiao Nanli’s expression froze, and he immediately reached out to Yun Xia.

    Just then, another figure instantly appeared, kneeling on one knee to catch Yun Xia.

    Xiao Nanli was not surprised, “I thought you would only watch from over there and wouldn’t show up.”

    Mo Jun Zhou stood up, holding Yun Xia, and coldly looked at him, “Elder Xiao doesn’t stay in his room in the middle of the night. What does it mean to come here to watch other people sleep?”

    Xiao Nanli smiled, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes, “I heard some movement and came out to take a look.”

    Mo Jun Zhou: “Have you seen enough, then?”

    Xiao Nanli looked at him without speaking, and Mo Jun Zhou didn’t give in at all.

    It wasn’t until the person in Mo Jun Zhou’s arms moved uncomfortably that he looked down. Xiao Nanli also restored his gentle expression: “It’s late, Esteemed Lord should take him back to his room to sleep.”

    Mo Jun Zhou raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly before turning and leaving directly.

    Back in the room, Mo Jun Zhou put Yun Xia on the bed and intended to get up and sit by the window, not sleeping tonight.

    But as soon as he stood up, his hand was grabbed.

    Mo Jun Zhou was stunned and looked down.

    Yun Xia wasn’t awake, he just turned over and grabbed his hand, sleeping soundly.

    Mo Jun Zhou looked at him for a long time, and finally sighed silently, sitting on the edge of the bed, not pulling his hand back, just letting Yun Xia hold it.

    He looked at the moon that only appeared in various books and paintings.

    “What exactly…”

    In the end, not even the moon knew the remaining words.

    ……

    The next day, Yun Xia woke up in the sunshine. It had been a long time since he had been woken up by the sun, and he was a little dazed.

    “Wake up and get up.”

    Yun Xia was stunned. Mo Jun Zhou was sitting on the edge of the bed, half of his body bathed in the sunlight. His fair skin was almost transparent, and Yun Xia could even see his long eyelashes fluttering in the light, like wings.

    Being hit by such male beauty early in the morning, Yun Xia immediately wiped under his nose, fortunately not bleeding.

    “I’m relying on my ability to sleep in, why should I get up.” Yun Xia lay back down.

    Looking at Mo Jun Zhou reading a book, Yun Xia realized something, and sat up again with a start: “Why am I here? Did you carry me back?”

    Mo Jun Zhou snorted coldly, “If it wasn’t me, who do you think it was?”

    “I didn’t think it was anyone, I know it was you, and it would only be you.”

    Yun Xia smiled and rubbed against Mo Jun Zhou’s side of the bed.

    “Mo Jun Zhou, look at me.”

    Mo Jun Zhou turned a page, ignoring him.

    “Hey, look at me, I want to see the scenery outside.”

    “If you want to see it, see it, what does it have to do with me? Also, the bed is still half and half.”

    Yun Xia: “… Got it, I’ve already reminded you, then I’m going to see the scenery.”

    Mo Jun Zhou didn’t understand what this meant. Suddenly, Yun Xia pounced from the edge of the bed, heading straight for him… and the window.

    Although he knew that even if he fell out of the window, there probably wouldn’t be anything serious, Mo Jun Zhou was still chilled by his actions at that moment.

    Without any need to think, Mo Jun Zhou caught him firmly, his arms tightly wrapped around his waist.

    “What are you doing!”

    Before the angry words could be fully spoken, Yun Xia straightened up, pressing his shoulders and sticking his head out of the window: “Wow——! So——high——!”

    Mo Jun Zhou was startled again and was about to pull him back: “Hey!”

    Yun Xia laughed, holding the window frame, and turned his head back: “It’s okay, I won’t fall, aren’t you here? I’m very relieved, just let me look like this.”

    His face was covered with sunlight, and the wind blew his scattered hair wildly. His eyes were bright and transparent, as if there were two small suns inside.

    Mo Jun Zhou was burned by his smile, but he didn’t want to look away, just hugging him more carefully and cautiously, he helplessly said, “Then be careful.”

    Yun Xia was in a great mood. He had successfully left the Demon Realm. Although there was still a lot of things waiting for him when he returned to the Immortal Realm, he was no longer anxious. He would deal with things as they came, and Esteemed Lord was still by his side. What was there to be afraid of!

    He couldn’t help but shout at the land below: “Friends below! Can you see me!”

    Mo Jun Zhou: “…”

    As if they could see him.

    But Yun Xia was still tirelessly shouting at the air. It had to be said that it was really stress-relieving. At this moment, he vented his pressure, anxiety, and unease, and his whole body relaxed a lot.

    “There’s a big lake down there! I really want to go for a swim!”

    “Wow, that’s a primitive forest over there, with snow-capped mountains in the distance! Are there immortals on the top of the snow-capped mountains? Oh, you said I’m an immortal, then never mind. Hahahaha.”

    Listening to his infectious madness, Mo Jun Zhou also smiled.

    “Idiot.”

    “Yun Xia, Junior Brother, you’re in a good mood.”

    Yun Xia turned his head and saw that Xiao Nanli, who lived next door to them, was the one speaking. It was not strange that he had a large room.

    Yun Xia was in such a good mood that he said to Xiao Nanli, “Good morning, Head Senior Brother, did you sleep well last night?”

    Xiao Nanli was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shouted at him, “I slept very well, how about you?”

    “Me too, I have to say it’s so cool to have an airship like this. If I have money in the future, I’ll buy one too, and then use it to travel to every place in the Three Realms!”

    He had been stuck in those places for too long. Although the Demon Palace was very good, and the Holy City was also very good, he had never actually been anywhere.

    Xiao Nanli nodded, “So Junior Brother Yun Xia longs for this kind of life. There will be opportunities in the future. If you don’t have enough money, you can come to me.”

    Yun Xia’s eyes lit up: “Really! How much can I borrow? Are flying immortal artifacts expensive? Hey! What are you doing?”

    Yun Xia was forcibly pulled back by Mo Jun Zhou.

    “Okay, you’ve seen enough.”

    “Hey! I haven’t finished talking yet.”

    “What else do you want to say?”

    “I… It’s nothing, anyway, you’re very rich, I’ll just spend your money.”

    Mo Jun Zhou was noncommittal.

    “Is it okay? Can I spend your money? I won’t spend it for nothing, I can be your little sun forever.”

    This time, Mo Jun Zhou’s heart was burned, and that word almost came out.
