"So, I’m admitting my mistake and accepting punishment, Master Ancestor. Just decide how you’ll punish me so we can quickly move on from this. Oh, and don’t go around spreading this."

Jiang Yiyi blushed and said, "I won’t go around talking."

As for the punishment... Jiang Yiyi finally caught Chu Xuan’s weak spot and originally wanted to say things like "Be good to me for life" or "Stay by my side forever."

But before she could speak, she suddenly realized, isn’t this just like a couple’s thing??

With a very active imagination, she even thought of whether the children born from the "Innate Dao Body" and "Immortal’s Body" would be more powerful than the "Innate Chaos Dao Embryo."

In that instant, Jiang Yiyi shook her head vigorously, wanting to toss those chaotic thoughts out of her mind.

Chu Xuan saw this and felt a bit worried, "What’s wrong?"

"Stop, don’t talk to me, you go out first." Jiang Yiyi pulled the blanket over her head and said in a muffled voice.

Chu Xuan was really puzzled by what she was thinking, "How about I buy you some buns, fried dough sticks, and soy milk?"

"Okay!" Jiang Yiyi immediately popped her head out with joy, "And add a bowl of tofu pudding, with lots of sugar."

Chu Xuan smiled and nodded.

After seeing him off, Jiang Yiyi then bit her nails, pondering the matter. She felt she was becoming a bit strange, wondering if Chu Xuan had cast some spell on her?

It doesn’t make sense. Even if she’s fallen from grace, she’s still an Immortal, not easily influenced by such means, and Chu Xuan isn’t that kind of person either.

Then why? Why would she have such dreams... She clearly just viewed Chu Xuan as an interesting and adorable junior.

As for having kids, nope, not happening!

Let Qingqing and Gu Haitang handle it. I might just look at what their kid looks like, see if they have high talent, but I don’t have the energy to personally give birth for him.

...

Earlier, in the room next to Chu Xuan and his group.

Ji Mingyu was angrily rolling around on the bed, looking like she wanted to vent but had no outlet.

Xiao Xue watched in shock, struggling to imagine her master with such behavior.

No doubt, Ji Mingyu saw the scene of Chu Xuan and Jiang Yiyi being intimate. On one hand, she was filled with envy and jealousy. On the other, she couldn’t afford to focus too much on Jiang Yiyi, almost causing herself internal injuries from holding it back.

This was because, Jiang Yiyi really might be some Immortal descended to the mortal realm, so when Ji Mingyu observed the water mirror image, she mostly focused on Chu Xuan’s face, only using her peripheral vision to barely glance at Jiang Yiyi so as not to alert her and cause any trouble.

Typically, this was fine, but in this situation, looking made her angry and not looking made her angrier. If she showed any murderous intent towards Jiang Yiyi in the water mirror, it’d be even more troublesome.

This led her to act unseemly before her pet.

"Chu Xuan, you ungrateful fellow," Ji Mingyu gritted her teeth, "and that pretender woman!"

Mingyu started suspecting Jiang Yiyi wasn’t the innocent and lively type but was pretending.

Otherwise, why would she suddenly decide to grab Chu Xuan for a drink? And after only three drinks, immediately start clinging to him and kissing.

If this wasn’t intentional, what was?

Xiao Xue was a bit terrified, especially since she had just comforted her master, suggesting that Chu Xuan and Jiang Yiyi might not be in any ambiguous romantic relationship.

But the worst situation occurred that night, with Jiang Yiyi initiating the kiss, they broke that invisible boundary just slightly.

Would her master blame her? Xiao Xue worried in her heart.

"No, I can’t keep watching this, I need a change," Ji Mingyu sat up and resumed her usual ice queen demeanor.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xue suddenly felt an ominous sense and asked cautiously, "Master, what do you mean by change?"

Ji Mingyu looked at her pet indifferently and ordered, "I need you to go to Chu Xuan, first to say nice things for me and make him reconsider."

"Second, help me fend off those scheming women, preventing them from getting close to Chu Xuan."

Xiao Xue was stunned, "But master, I’m afraid Chu Xuan won’t accept. I’ve analyzed it for you before. He’s heartbroken and won’t see me..."

Ji Mingyu waved, interrupting Xiao Xue, "What’s past is past, now is now."

"It’s been over ten years, I doubt Chu Xuan’s grudge against me still persists, He won’t transfer his anger to you, especially since he liked you..."

When speaking the last three words, Ji Mingyu suddenly got cautious, "After you go to Chu Xuan, maintain your animal form as much as possible. Don’t transform unless necessary, moreover, keep your interactions with him incautious."

Xiao Xue felt helpless, thinking this was a difficult task. If she messed up, Chu Xuan might dislike her and her master might despise her, ending up pleasing no one.

Seeing the girl’s troubled expression, Ji Mingyu pulled her close with kindness, "I’ve recorded all your hard work over the years, I won’t make things difficult for you, don’t be too afraid of me, okay?"

Xiao Xue nodded and pondered before saying, "Delivering me directly now may not be suitable, it’s too obvious and forced, Chu Xuan might reject it."

"It’s best we find a suitable opportunity to naturally place me by Chu Xuan’s side."

Ji Mingyu glanced at the water mirror, observing the situation as Jiang Yiyi was already asleep on the bed. Chu Xuan simply stroked her cheek without doing anything overboard, so she nodded in agreement.

Then, the next day when Jiang Yiyi woke up, Ji Mingyu acted like a senior, scolding Chu Xuan.

As for Chu Xuan, he seemed not to intend developing any romantic relationship with Jiang Yiyi, so Ji Mingyu secretly sighed in relief.

...

When Chu Xuan returned with breakfast, he watched as his Master Ancestor began savoring it all with a smile.

To her, eating was a significant affair, a good meal meant a good mood.

Chu Xuan ate with her a bit and asked, "Have you decided how to punish yet?"

Jiang Yiyi munched on a fried dough stick and said, "Not yet, but since you’re being so cooperative, I won’t make any outrageous demands, don’t worry~"

Chu Xuan shook his head, "I hope you think of something soon, otherwise I won’t feel at ease."

"Oh, relax," Jiang Yiyi patted his shoulder casually, "This is our little secret, won’t tell anyone, and since I’ve forgiven you, what are you afraid of?"

Seeing she genuinely wasn’t angry, Chu Xuan smiled faintly.

Afterward, the two continued their trip, taking three months to return despite taking a month to come.

The younger disciple had long returned to the sect and was alarmed not seeing the senior disciple and Master Ancestor return, worrying something happened on the road.

Fortunately, Floating Cloud Immortal understood these two’s personalities and easily guessed the truth.

Once back at the sect, upon meeting the master, Chu Xuan’s first words were, "Thankfully, we didn’t let you down."

Jiang Yiyi’s attitude wasn’t as good. She crossed her arms and deliberately avoided eye contact with Floating Cloud Immortal to express her annoyance.

But Floating Cloud Immortal simply took out a pink "Sugar Lotus Blossom" from his sleeve, and Jiang Yiyi instantly failed to resist shifting her eyes over.

Floating Cloud Immortal coughed, "I sincerely ask for the Ancestor’s forgiveness for our previous concealment. Now that you’re back, please rest and leave the follow-up work to us."

"I refuse." Jiang Yiyi said seriously, even moving her gaze away from the delicious flower.

She earnestly looked at Floating Cloud Immortal, "I’m here to save the Three Realms and Six Paths, all sentient beings, absolutely can’t stand aside."

Seeing this, Chu Xuan secretly transmitted his voice to his master, "I’ll handle coaxing her to see reason later, gradually encouraging her to balance work and rest, cherishing herself more."

Floating Cloud Immortal helplessly nodded.
