Sitting in a coffin is probably a novel experience for anyone.

Lying in the dark, cramped space that the dead can only find, constantly swaying with the turbulent currents outside, occasionally bumping into the hard coffin lid, and what's more, there are two people lying in Bai Qiuran's coffin.

Don't assume that Li Jinyao next to you is a soft and cute girl. The two of you are in a cramped coffin, being tossed around by the turbulent currents, and it won't be so uncomfortable.

Li Jinyao is a human being, and there are quite a few hard parts on a human body. Along the way, Bai Qiuran was bumped into by her head, elbows, knees, and other parts at least dozens of times.

Although he felt somewhat sorry for Tang Ruowei, Bai Qiuran thought to himself whenever Li Jinyao bumped into him that it was fortunate that the person lying next to him wasn't his disciple.

At least Li Jinyao had some cushioning on her body. If it were Tang Ruowei... then the cushioning areas might be even harder than her knees and elbows.

After a bumpy ride and an unknown amount of time spent in the darkness, the coffin finally stopped shaking. Bai Qiuran pushed the coffin lid and found that the force that had been sealing it had disappeared, indicating that they had arrived at their destination.

So he pushed open the coffin lid and stood up.

A surge of Spirit Qi rushed towards her, warm and gentle sunlight shone overhead, and the scent of fresh grass filled her nostrils. If it weren't for the pile of scattered coffins at her feet and around her, Bai Qiuran would have truly thought she had entered a garden.

"As expected of the Central Immortal Realm."

He sighed, "Even the cemetery is built in such a beautiful and auspicious place."

Beside him, Li Jinyao also sat up from the coffin. The girl had large red marks on her face and hands, and it was clear that she had been hit hard. The first thing she did after getting up was to rub the red spots on her body and gasp for breath.

Seeing her get up, Bai Qiuran couldn't help but laugh and ask, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Li Jinyao hesitated for a moment, then nodded with teary eyes, saying, "If I ever use this kind of trick again, I'll be an idiot..."

Li Jinyao secretly decided that she would never ride in such a cramped and vibrating vehicle with Bai Qiuran again. Because she was next to Bai Qiuran, when she bumped into Bai Qiuran, Bai Qiuran would probably only feel uncomfortable, but she herself would be in great pain from the impact.

There are plenty of ways to show affection; there's no need to risk your life.

At this moment, the boards of several coffins around Bai Qiuran and Li Jinyao were also pushed open. Qingmingzi, Liu Shi, and Tang Ruowei each rubbed a part of their bodies and stood up from their coffins. Only the Puppet Venerable in the puppet body had a normal expression.

"I never imagined in my life I would one day rise from my coffin..."

Tang Ruowei rubbed her bright red nose and muttered, "This experience is truly unforgettable."

Seeing her bright red nose, Bai Qiuran immediately White Hair. He asked, "Did you smash the coffin, or did the coffin smash you?"

"Ah?"

Tang Ruowei looked at him with a somewhat blank expression.

"What I mean is, it's almost time. Do you still need me to give you a massage?"

Bai Qiuran repeated.

Tang Ruowei stood there thinking for a moment, then suddenly blushed and angrily said, "Nonsense!"

After a pause, she blushed and stammered in a low voice, "The massage still needs to be done..."

Seeing their interaction, Qingmingzi frowned, thought for a moment, and suddenly felt something was off.

He involuntarily replaced Bai Qiuran with himself and Tang Ruowei with his former disciples in his mind, briefly reconstructing the scene before feeling a chill run down his spine.

"Qiuran and Books"

He coughed and said, "It's good for the master and disciple to be close, but they should also be mindful of the impact; don't take the jokes too far."

"Oh."

Bai Qiuran responded.

"Grandmaster, Grandmaster, let me tell you something."

Seeing Bai Qiuran behave unusually obediently in front of Qingmingzi, Tang Ruowei's eyes darted around, as if she had found her pillar of support.

She pointed at Bai Qiuran and complained, "This master has such a sharp tongue! He not only likes to laugh at me, but he also keeps flirting with other people."

"I know Qiuran has a foul mouth. Ever since I picked him up, that brat has been spouting trash."

Upon hearing this, Qingmingzi reprimanded, "But flirting with girls... Qiuran, if you had had that courage back then, Zong Xuan might be surnamed Bai now..."

"Um?"

Li Jinyao keenly sensed something amiss in Qingmingzi's words, and she quickly asked, "Senior Qingmingzi, what do you mean? And who is Zong Xuan?"

"Zong Xuan is the third sect Sect Master of the Azure Nether Sword Sect after my Ascension."

Qingmingzi shook his head and said, "She's also the son of my eldest and youngest disciples. Back then, my little disciple was the sect's darling. Qiuran and his group of rascals all considered that girl their dream girl..."

"Cough cough."

Bai Qiuran a little embarrassed and coughed, saying, "Master, those are things from thousands of years ago. Now, I already have two wives."

"Mmm..."

After hearing Bai Qiuran admit that his junior sister was his first love, Li Jinyao pouted and looked up at him, looking a little jealous.

But upon hearing this, Qingmingzi's eyes lit up, and he said, "Oh? You've finally come to your senses? Who is your wife? What does she look like? What do her elders do? Introduce her to me another day."

"Okay."

Bai Qiuran replied, "You probably don't know one of them, but you actually know the other one. She's from the Hehuan Sect. You've forgotten, haven't you? You were almost drained of your life essence by her master back then."

Qingmingzi thought for a moment, then suddenly turned pale.

"You mean that old hag's disciple..."

"Cough."

Liu Shi, who had been smiling silently the whole time, smiled at Qingmingzi and said, "Qingming Sect Ming, I think we need to talk sometime later."

"Shi'er, you've misunderstood. There's nothing between me and that old hag."

Qingmingzi quickly explained, "If you don't believe me, ask Qiuran. Wasn't Qiuran also targeted by that old hag?"

"Master, please don't drag me into this."

Bai Qiuran said seriously, "Yes, it's true that the old hag took a fancy to me after you left, but I killed her. Did you kill her?"

Liu Shi's gaze sharpened once again.

"You brat, you have no loyalty whatsoever!"

Qingmingzi cursed, but then he looked at Bai Qiuran with a pitying gaze and asked, "Why did you marry a woman from the Hehuan Sect? You know the nature of the Hehuan Sect. Even if she really reforms for you, her reputation in the Cultivation World won't be good."

"Grandmaster, you are unaware of this."

Tang Ruowei replied, "Second Master's Wife is a well-known chaste and virtuous woman in the Cultivation World, a fact even acknowledged by the monks of the Heavenly Saint Buddhist Sect. Moreover, although they don't outwardly admit it, the Righteous Path and Demonic Path are actually one family across the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou."

"???"

Qingmingzi looked completely bewildered and muttered, "What exactly happened in the Cultivation World after I Ascension?"

That's a long story.

Bai Qiuran replied, "I'll tell you slowly after we've settled in."

He led the way out, with Li Jinyao and Tang Ruowei following behind. Liu Shi also walked up to Qingmingzi and secretly pinched his waist.

The group had only walked a few steps when a red cloud suddenly descended from the horizon, transforming into the Red Dust Immortal Elder. He appeared before Bai Qiuran and hurriedly bowed, saying, "I apologize for being late in welcoming you."
