Minghe left without lingering.

Qin Yi said that Myriad Images of the Universe had no intention of harming anyone for the time being, Minghe believed him.

Since that's the case, she even abandoned her intention to go back and ask her elders to handle it. At most, she would keep an eye on the progress of the matter and deal with any changes later. She only came here to investigate the cause, and she's not some kind of extremist. It's not like she should extrapolate the consequences of someone from the demonic path having a meal or taking a walk. How could anyone live their lives like that?

Besides... Meng Qingying gave her face this time, first peacefully capturing her and then not continuing the pursuit. Whether it was because of Qin Yi or because she didn't want to offend Celestial Pivot Divine Palace, Minghe should accept this tacit understanding. If she kept causing trouble, she would be in the wrong.

It would be better to go back.

This action was rash; we entered the other side's home turf without warning and were suppressed at every turn.

But it's worth it.

Her relationship with Qin Yi had become more comfortable. The thought of meeting again, exchanging a smile, and greeting each other with "Fellow Daoist, how are you?" was delightful. Minghe knew that their cultivation was also unique, emphasizing focus, comprehension, and exploration, seeking that fleeting moment of communion with the Celestial Person. Just today's cheerful mood might even be enough for her to break through.

It's truly invigorating. As for the future...

Huiyang's century-old history...

Regardless of whether it can be achieved, even if it is, it will be decades from now. By then, he may not even remember Qin Yi, Qin Yi, who is indulging in philandering, may not even remember that there is a Minghe in the world.

Then you can forget about it.

If I haven't forgotten... who cares, I'll deal with it when the time comes. To be honest, Minghe was also secretly looking forward to it.

Surprisingly, Meng Qingying didn't come over this time to provoke her. This surprised Minghe. It was understandable that Meng Qingying wouldn't fight too hard; she was a new leader and didn't want to cause trouble. But to not show up for this opportunity to provoke Minghe —was that really Meng Qingying?

Is something wrong?

Filled with confusion, Minghe flew into the Undersea Grave.

Qin Yi stood there and watched Minghe walk away until Minghe disappeared from sight. In the darkness beside him, the shadow slowly took shape and Meng Qingying slowly appeared.

"I can't tell... is this a ploy to get you, or is it your true intention?"

"Of course it's true. My current entanglement with her is hindering her cultivation, Non-Self my intention. As for their Dao Path, I reserve my opinion, but at this moment my own understanding is too shallow to comment on such matters. One day, I will ask them about it myself."

"Knocking on Divine Capital, embracing the Milky Way?" Meng Qingying rolled her eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

Qin Yi didn't continue the conversation, instead asking, "It's strange that you didn't try to provoke her. Wasn't that what you were planning to do?"

"Seeing her in that dilemma, I didn't want to come out anymore." Meng Qingying sighed, "That wouldn't be provoking her, it would be setting you up for failure."

"Oh?"

"If I anger her, she will simply leave in anger, and I will truly lose her completely."

"Isn't this what you wanted?"

"Yes and no." Meng Qingying smiled slightly. "I do want her to see that Qin Yi, who once said he would kill me for her, is now in my arms. But it's already a fact. I don't need to say it; she already knows. My goal has already been achieved. Making empty threats or maliciously provoking her would just make me a vulgar shrew, something even worse, and she would only laugh at me."

Qin Yi really wanted to say, "You clearly wanted to do something so lowly before, why are you suddenly pretending to be high-class now?"

Meng Qingying said leisurely, "I'm listening to you. How do you know if I'll give up on her if you don't try? I find this very interesting. Letting her angrily sever this bond doesn't seem very meaningful; it might even help her... It's far more interesting to see her unable to let go, unable to bear it, and regret not making a move sooner, running back to compete with me for the man."

Qin Yi was both amused and exasperated. "You're overthinking it. That's not Minghe."

"Is that so?" Meng Qingying said calmly, "I don't think so... Just like that year I wanted to kill you, but who knows if this is still Meng Qingying now."

Qin Yi turned around and embraced her, gently stroking her waist, and whispered, "I know this is Meng Qingying."

"No respect for elders! Call him Young Master! Behave yourself as a Cauldron vessel!"

The Cauldron's hand reached inside the Young Master's clothes.

The Young Master's eyes widened.

"This... this is in broad daylight!"

"Huh?" Qin Yi turned to look at the pitch-black world. "Where did the sky come from? Where did the sun come from?"

"You..."

"Oh, I see, you mean this kind of sun?"

"No..." Meng Qingying pressed down on his mischievous hand, biting her lower lip as she said, "You think this is pitch black, but I see living beings everywhere, staring right at me."

Qin Yi felt a chill run down his spine from what he was being told and quickly withdrew his hand.

Actually, he didn't intend to do anything here; he just wanted to teach the arrogant "Young Master" a lesson.

After all, Ju Yunxiu and Li Qingjun are still guests at the camp. If we don't suppress her arrogance, will she even have a chance to go back alive?

Ju Yunxiu Li Qingjun actually knew what Qin Yi Meng Qingying were doing, but they did not interfere.

The conflict between Meng Qingying and Minghe is not merely a love affair; it involves a complex web of sect rivalry and even a conflict between the righteous and the demonic. They have no intention of getting involved, especially since their own jealousy would only complicate matters further. Unnecessary interference would only create more chaos.

This is not the time to create a chaotic scene; we need to be mindful of the boundaries.

Besides, Meng Qingying and Minghe both have things to do and can't be by each other's side anytime soon. The two of them are well aware of this and remain calm.

They were drinking and looking at documents in their guest room.

As "Young Master and honored guests," they were given whatever they wanted, except for sect secrets. They were quite curious about the Netherworld Realm, so they asked the people of the Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect to provide them with basic information about the Netherworld Realm, including its environment, products, biological atlases and characteristic markings, special dangerous places, and so on.

For the Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect, this is basic knowledge; many secrets have yet to be revealed. But for the outside world, this is already extremely valuable information for exploring the Netherworld Realm.

Ju Yunxiu was thoroughly enjoying the sight.

She was a Painting Dao practitioner who intended to make the art world resemble the real world. She was extremely interested in these things and quickly became immersed in them, turning a deaf ear to outside affairs.

Li Qingjun, however, had different interests. She only learned a little about these things and was more interested in Meng Qingying herself because she had a past with Minghe.

Minghe was the first cultivator she met. In the early days, he seemed incredibly mysterious and aloof, but that image has almost completely crumbled now...

She had once seen Qin Yi's hidden desire for Minghe, and even considered that Minghe might be her first "sister." At that time, she didn't particularly like Minghe and was already thinking about how to engage in palace intrigue with Minghe... Hmm...

Times have changed, and the current situation is completely different. These foxes around him... if we're talking about factions, he and Minghe should actually be on the same side, after all, they have a history...

Surprisingly, Minghe was the one furthest away from him.

Her rival, her nemesis, the Witch feared by all, actually ended up with him... well...

Amidst Li Qingjun's swirling thoughts, the guest room door opened, and Meng Qingying jumped in.

That jump was great; you can tell it was really graceful.

Li Qingjun, who was by the window, slowly turned her head, Ju Yunxiu, who was reading a book, looked up.

"Oh, you guys are still here." Meng Qingying asked in surprise, "Don't you have anything to do?"

This tone... it sounds like they've returned victorious from the Battle of Minghe and want to sweep the world with their momentum?

Ju Yunxiu said leisurely, "In this secluded mountain dwelling, a single book is sufficient. Thank you for your hospitality. But I would like to ask, Miss Meng, how long are you planning to use my good-for-nothing junior brother?"

The contrast was stark, highlighting her own purity while the other woman used men endlessly, the irony reaching its peak. But this tactic had no effect on Meng Qingying, like a gentle breeze. "My captive is my prey. He's quite diligent... maybe he really likes me."

Li Qingjun immediately thought of Cheng Cheng.

Sure enough, I felt from the beginning that only a demonic witch could rival Cheng Cheng's integrity, and my intuition was quite accurate... If Cheng Cheng were here, that would be a true match, a meeting of equals.
