Thank you Ziair for the kofi!
A few days later, the ghosts had all been dealt with.
When Sun Fuyu and the others returned to the sect, Lin Yijun led them to the Missions Hall to distribute the rewards. That Lin Yijun seemed to be in a hurry was perfect for Sun Fuyu. The moment Sun Fuyu received his reward, he farewelled the seniors and raced to Wen-ge’s room.
Standing outside the door, Sun Fuyu patted down his robes, fixed his hair, and took a deep breath. He knocked on the door.
The door opened, revealing a Wen Zhihao blinking away sleepiness.
“I’m not late, am I, Wen-ge?” Sun Fuyu asked.
Wen Zhihao reached out and rubbed Sun Fuyu’s head. “Not at all. You must have worked hard on your mission.”
“Yes, I’m now Mid-Stage Golden Core!”
“Very good,” Wen Zhihao praised, his head-rubbing becoming more vigorous. “Why don’t you take a rest first?”
“Mmm, I want to spend time with Wen-ge,” Sun Fuyu said, shyly pulling at Wen-ge’s sleeve. “Go for dinner with Wen-ge.”
“If Xiao Yu wants to, then let’s go. It’s a nice clear night, shall we go to one of the towns by the sea?”
“Listen to ge.”
Wen Zhihao couldn’t help but reach out and hug Sun Fuyu, and kiss him on both cheeks. Who made Sun Fuyu so cute, hm? Who???
Sun Fuyu’s cheeks reddened. He pressed the side of his face against Wen-ge’s shoulder. When Wen-ge let go, Sun Fuyu darted forward and kissed him lightly on the lips.

“Let’s go then,” Wen Zhihao said, grinning. He held Sun Fuyu’s hand, locked the door behind him, and led Sun Fuyu out of the building.

Lin Yijun exhaled heavily. Once the last of the mission rewards were distributed, he flew to the area where the animal tamer cultivators stayed.
The animal tamer cultivator Tan Yang was waiting for him in one of the courtyards. Tan Yang was a tall and broad man, making the demonic wolf at his feet look like an ordinary dog.
There was no one else in the courtyard.
“Greetings, Cultivator Tan,” Lin Yijun said once he landed.
Tan Yang replied, “Cultivator Lin, greetings.”
Lin Yijun glanced at the wolf. “Forgive my hurry. Was it successful?”
Tan Yang bowed his head slightly. “Forgive me, Cultivator Lin. My beast was able to find the person you were looking for. However, she was distracted by another cultivator with a particularly peaceful aura and traces of the same scent, and so did not catch the person you wanted.”
Lin Yijun’s stomach rolled with anxiety. “Who? Was it…” A sudden thought struck him. “Was it a cultivator named Wen Zhihao?”
Tan Yang glanced at the demonic wolf, who was moping at his feet. “My beast mentioned that the human had been called ‘Wen’ by others.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Here is the rest of the payment.” Lin Yijun handed the 50 high-grade spiritual stones over like they were nothing. After bland well-wishes and farewells, Lin Yijun turned away and stalked out, his eyes darkening.
That Wen Zhihao! He had the scent of Zhou Sheng…that meant Wen Zhihao had met with Zhou Sheng. Wen Zhihao had lied to him! Curse him!
Lin Yijun spread his qi out across the entire sect, but he was only able to find lingering traces of Wen Zhihao around his frequented spots. Wen Zhihao was no longer in the sect.
At this time? When that will soon happen?
Time was tight. Lin Yijun returned to his room, gathered up multiple magical treasures, and left the sect.
Not long after Lin Yijun left the sect, Senior Cultivator Cheng Yahui finally arrived at the accommodation for Liu Zhongmin’s direct disciples. They had originally gone to the accommodation for Elder Liu’s direct disciples, only to be told that Disciple Wen was not staying there.
“Oh, hello again, Senior Cheng,” Hu Jingyan said.
“Cultivator Hu,” Cheng Yahui greeted. “I’m looking for Disciple Wen.”
Hu Jingyan smiled apologetically. “Both he and disciple Sun have left already. As I understand it, today is their weekly dinner date.”
—And thus Cheng Yahui unexpectedly ate dog food on top of their disappointment caused by missing Wen Zhihao. They wanted to cry in frustration. They wanted to buy a heart-soothing stone from Wen Zhihao as soon as possible!! Oh, why hadn’t they asked Sun Fuyu earlier about Wen Zhihao’s location?
Hu Jingyan tactfully ignored Cheng Yahui’s crestfallen expression and went off to train.
With the warm mild night, clear night sky, the mortal town by the sea that Wen Zhihao and Sun Fuyu chose was bustling with people.
Wen Zhihao decided to buy various street food dishes first, and then he and Sun Fuyu headed to the beach for a more quiet, private place to eat.
Sun Fuyu swung their hands back and forth as they walked, his heart warm. So the stones that his ge had been giving him were all heart-soothing treasures? They were even more precious than Sun Fuyu had realised! His Wen-ge had given him so many stones over the last year. His Wen-ge must have also liked him for a long time too. Thinking about it made Sun Fuyu even happier!
An uncontrollable smile grew on his lips. Sun Fuyu peeked at his Wen-ge and then looked away again. Like! So much!
“That looks like a good spot,” Wen Zhihao said, pointing to a dark green cliff jutting out from the land. While he liked sand, he didn’t want to eat sitting on the sand.
“En!”
The two of them strolled over. As they came closer, the wind changed direction.
Wen Zhihao and Sun Fuyu both frowned. They could hear…crying? They looked at each other.
“There’s more than one child crying,” Sun Fuyu said carefully.
Suddenly, there were multiple low reprimands and the crying was stifled and muffled, as though someone was stuffed in the mouth of the crying children.
“Go?” Sun Fuyu asked.
“Go.”
The two of them both took out their swords and flew towards the sounds—a dark cave under the cliff.
Before they could reach the cave though, an angry aura choked the air. A dark-robed person appeared at the mouth of the cave.
The men in the caves gasped, crumpling to the ground as something heavy seemed to push down on them.
“You fucking bastard scum! For your crimes, only death awaits—” A metal blade appeared in the darkness.
“Zhou Sheng?”
Oh yes, finally gave Senior Cheng a given name, Yahui. Cheng Yahui takes they/them pronouns. At least they’re named, unlike that nameless genderless/agender Elder XD
Now, why is there a cliffhanger here? Because I’ve been a bit busy lately so it’s easier for me to write 1k chapters like this 😅😅
C’mon now! You can’t play with people’s feelings like that author-Sama! WHAT HAPPENED HERE?
Also someone knock some common sense into that guy who got reborn.
Thanks for the Chapter!
+1
MUAHAHAHAHAH 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hm, maybe knock with the power of a lunging cat? 😂
+1
Cliffhanger on a literal cliff! oh no!
Zhou Sheng is obviously trying to do good(maybe save the kids) buuuut why do I get the feeling Lin Yijun is gonna show up too and make everything worse 😒
Thanks for the chapter!
Sun Fuyu and Wen Zihao both think the other is just THE BEST, don’t they 😂
cute!
We’ve been hanged😵
There’s going to be a huge misunderstanding… I can feel it😰
Super cute😆😆😆
I’ll revive you next chapter!
(though no guarantees on whether or not I’ll hang you again 🤣🤣🤣🤣)
😂 cliffhanger on a literal cliff 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lin Yijun would sure be a downer…
Hehehe, Sun Fuyu and Wen Zhihao have a very good relationship 😂
Ohhh a cliffhanger! Liking it the same time it’s frustrating 😁
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you~!
I wanna cry! This cliffhanger!! But yep, who wants an extra servings of dog food!? I ordered for two but i forgot that I’m a single dog! 😖
-anyway, i love this chapter sensei! 😉
HAHAHAH you can save the second serving for later, it lasts very well 🤣
Thank you, my student~
Author-san, do not follow the path of advertising!!! You can’t interrupt chapters in the most interesting place! Nooo… 😫
Thank you for the chapter 🌸
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 It just reached 1k so nicely right there….. hahahah
Thank you for reading!
Ohhhh… so Zhou Sheng ended up killing kidnappers.
Eh, still doesn’t explain why Lin Yijun wouldn’t listen to Zhou Sheng’s explanation. I’ll just blame it on his conceit and self-absorbed personality. 😑
Lin Yijun definitely has a lot of arrogance. It doesn’t help that he’s been primed as a future leader in the sect.
I had two reactions while reading this chapter:
1º – OMG!! XIAO YU TAKING INITIATIVE!! I wonder what’s the next step ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
2º – multipov?? Wait wut?? how did this go to that?? No wait, did it change again?? Hmm alright now I’m confused… No wait Cliffhanger??? What is happening here…
😊😊😊😊😊
😅😅😅😅🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈 Hopefully things will be revealed…the timing for the scenes was quite tight 😅
Zhou Sheng is trying to save the kids (in my perspective), so Lin Yijun, do not fuck this up (although there’s a LARGE possibility that he will, even if he’s not there yet)
Another dog food from the main CP! My midnight’s covered in sweetness ah~
Thanks for the dog food! I’ll gladly eat this~
Lin Yijun is a downer at the best of times…
I’m glad your midnight is covered in sweetness! I’ll do my best to continue serving lots of dog food in the future!
This Lin Yijun is in dire need of a nice and quality beating.. Or else he’ll really become a cannon fodder..
Definitely!
Commemoration for senior Cheng’s name recieve-ation chapter 🥳
covers SFY and WZH’s ears SHH! DONT CURSE IN FRONT OF THE BABIES! >:0
claps!
HAHAH Wen Zhihao swears though! Made some people think he was a demonic cultivator/heading that way 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The protagonists have a bias halo on them. As long as they do it it’s fineee, BUT others should not! >:0
Thanks for the chapter~
Thank you for reading 🤗🤗
Cliffhanger-san, you can’t do this to us!!! Ngl I squealed when I read that Sun Fuyu pecked Wen Zhihao in the lips. Lin Yijun, you better not blame our buttered up, salted fish. Otherwise, you’ll worsen your relationship with Zhou Sheng. I have a question, between Zhou Sheng and Lin Yijun, who’s the shou/gong? I was thinking it would be Lin Yijun as gong but I’m not sure anymore. Thanks for the Chapter~~*
evil laughter 🙈 Glad you liked Sun Fuyu kissing Wen Zhihao~
HMM between Zhou Sheng and Lin Yijun….I actually didn’t figure out who was shou and who was gong 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈 you can chose whichever positions you want 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭
That’s a mouthful of dog food yum~
BTW is this the first time Zhou Sheng and Sun Fuyu meets? Totally forgot about it 😅
Lastly thanks for the update (≧▽≦)
That makes me a great chef, huh? 🤭🤭 (also your username LOL)
Yes, this is the first time Sun Fuyu and Zhou Sheng are meeting! Wen Zhihao does know people that Sun Fuyu doesn’t, and vice versa!
Thank you for reading!
Thanks for the chapter ♥️♥️
Thanks for reading 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I hope Wen-ge can save Zhou Sheng and that Lin Yijun doesn’t mess things up!
The way Xiao Yu and his Wen-ge adore each other warms my heart ❤️
And I love that Cheng Yahui uses they/them pronouns 🙌🏻 between the dog food and the disappointment, I feel a bit sorry for them right now 🤣
Thank you for the chapter 🌸🌸🌸
😏😏😏😏😏
🤗🤗 glad you like Xiao Yu and Wen-ge! I have to keep thinking up new ways they show affection hahaha
Hahaha indeed, poor Cheng Yahui! They’ve get over it once they find Wen Zhihao 🤣🤣🤣
Turns out it’s me who needs to cultivate properly and regulate my breathing, way more than our Disciple Lin ¯_༼ ಥ ‿ ಥ ༽_/¯
Wu, I’m so impatient. I really, like really want to smash LYJ head until he’s going into seclusion or throw him to the cats for like few months of peace and love so he can be as chill as Bob Ross.
Thanks for the cliffhanger! ♪(┌・。・)┌
HAHAHAHA. Wen Zhihao is almost my “do what I say, not what I do”
Thanks for reading~
Thank you for the chapter
Thank you for reading! 🤗
Thanks for the chapter!
Thank you for reading! 🤗
Thanks for the chapter! ♥️
Sun Fuyu is adorable and I love that he has brain holes but, like, completely innocuous ones. His Wen-ge is the best!
😅
I’m glad you like Sun Fuyu’s cute little brain holes 🤣🤣 En, the important thing is that they help his relationship with Wen Zhihao, and his thoughts are almost true. They’re just a litttttle early 🤣🤣

Nooo!!!!! not a cliffhanger
😏😏😏😏
getting ready for a giant misunderstanding eheh
thanks for the chapter~~
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really love this couple priorities, in fact I was surprised they just didn’t ignore the crying. Nah, they are too nice to ignore… My cute children 🥰I must confess that o thought Lin Yijun was going to crash the date, to my surprise it was our child Zhong Sheng. The circumstances don’t seem nice though??? 😰
Poor dogo, I hope he can be spoiled by Wen Zhihao again 😅
Author-san, thanks for the chapter 💕
I’m glad you liked all the cuteness!
It wasn’t just the crying, but that there were multiple people crying, followed by the suspicious muffling of the crying…
Thank you so much for your comment!! 🤗🤗🤗
When Author-sama suddenly decided to do something evil.
Thank you for the update 💕
It’s just too easy to be evil 🤣🤣🤣
I thank our lord for this gift.
hahahahaha, glad you liked it!
Who made Sun Fuyu so cute, hm? Who??? — it was our author sama tho
🙈 you’re right, it’s me 😘
Wha wha wha!!! What’s happening?! Who’s there?! Our dark protag is in danger!!
Thanks for the chapter!!
Or rather, other people are in danger of Zhou Sheng 😂
.
Dog food and author went to salt fish cultivate😂😂😂😂
🙈🙈🙈🙈 this story is wish fulfilment! I want to be a salted fish T_T
Oh! Only after reading the comments did I realize this is the event Lin Yijun was trying to stop. So biased against demonic cultivation propaganda that wouldn’t even hear his friend out, sigh. Hope they can resolve their misunderstanding.
Thanks for the chapter!
yeah, he learnt a lot of anti-demonic cultivation propaganda and didn’t question any of it, aiya…
Let’s hope!
Who made Sun Fuyu so cute, hm? Who???
That’s easy, the author 👍
😏😏 heheh it’s me~~
So Xiao Zhou took out the trash and Idiot Lin decided he killed a group of innocent people ok
Yeeepp….
Readers: *waiting nearby with shovels to eat as much dog food as possible.
Thank you for the chapter!
HAHAHAHA
I really pity all the characters around the MC.. all of them were bullied or angry and full of bad feelings…It could have been a drama if one of them was the protagonist of this novel, but the author did a really great job, showing us their suffering but thx to the MC angst never really happens. It amazes me how the author managed to write a” light” novel with a lot of tormented characters. Drama is everywhere but we focus on the MC so we feel peace…the same as the characters when they meet him! Bravo c’est super ! 👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
🤣🤣🤣🤣 The idea is that there are protagonists doing protagonists stuff, and Wen Zhihao is in the background doing his own stuff 🤣🤣🤣 I’m glad the story feels peaceful!
