Jun Mo returned to the tent. Although his complexion remained the same, there was a layer of blackness in his light-colored eyes, like a dark cloud over the moon and the dark color was especially shocking.

Ah-Mu said…he was going to find Xie QianLan to say goodbye.

So, was that his way of saying goodbye?

Xie QianLan was pursuing him, does Ah-Mu know?

He must know otherwise why would the two people be hugging and kissing each other?

How could it be like this? Jun Mo didn’t know what went wrong and why Ah-Mu had become so distant from him within just a few days.

Back in the tent, Jun Mo stayed up all night.

And Ling Mu also didn’t come back all night, Jun Mo felt that he shouldn’t be thinking wildly but he couldn’t control it at all.

What is Ah-Mu doing tonight? What was he doing with Xie QianLan?

Why… didn’t he come back?

Chu MuYun really didn’t do anything with Xie QianLan although he himself actually didn’t mind doing something, something that could even make the pain go away… But it didn’t match his character setting and the plot, so he could only bear with it.

After dawn, everything was over, but Chu MuYun collapsed and his entire body was in a state of lethargy.

Xie QianLan was very considerate: “I’ll take you to wash up?”

Chu MuYun was also tired of the stickiness on his body so he replied, “I’ve troubled you.”

Xie QianLan found a hot spring and led Chu MuYun in. Then, in order to avoid suspicion, he headed out himself.

For such a considerate gesture, Chu MuYun couldn’t help but feel grateful.

He cleaned himself up. Although he had no energy, his mental state was much better.

Chu MuYun dressed neatly and walked out. Xie QianLan took out another medicinal pill and said, “I see that you are lacking in energy. Although this qi nourishing pill is not of high rank, it still has some effect.”

This is really being very polite. As a half alchemist, Chu MuYun can see clearly at a glance. The rank of this qi nourishing pill was clearly extremely high and must have been rare in the world.

Xie QianLan said this becauseshe didn’t want Chu MuYun to be embarrassed.

But how could Chu MuYun pretend that he didn’t understand? He waved his hands quickly and said, “This is too precious! I only need a few days of meditation to be able to…”

“Take it. Jun Mo has not recovered from his illness and you have lost your energy. What will happen if you encounter danger again?”

Chu MuYun still hesitated.

Xie QianLan smiled and said, “You can consider it my lending it to you. Anyway, Jun Mo is very talented in alchemy. If there is a chance in the future, you guys can help me build a furnace. Therefore I will not lose money in this business.”

He said this and Chu MuYun didn’t dodge further. He was sincerely grateful: “We are very indebted to meeting Master Xie.”

Although Xie QianLan was born flamboyant and beautiful, after deliberately lowering his posture, he was also gentle and elegant. A slight smile from his lips would make people feel warmer: “That’s not true at all. It’s truly my happiness to have met Ah-Mu.”

 Chu MuYun was slightly startled.

There was a trace of sadness in Xie QianLan’s brows and his voice became a little lower: “To tell you the truth, seeing you is like seeing Ah-Yun’s brother. I can’t help but want to help you and I also hope that I can do more… that way, maybe Ah-Yun would be willing to come back to me.”

At this point, everyone will feel pity and Chu MuYun was no exception.

“Young Master Xie is so dedicated, you will definitely get what you want.”

Xie QianLan smiled: “I hope so.” 

The two of them chatted and, when they were about to go back, Chu MuYun remembered that his initial intention was to bid farewell to Xie QianLan.

But how could he open his mouth to say the words now? First he had bothered him for the entire night and just now Xie QianLan had even given him a medicinal pill. He asked for nothing in return and only proposed to travel together with them because of his old nostalgia. Now they, the people who had gotten all the benefits, wanted to take the initiative to say goodbye to Xie QianLan. It was really… a bit unreasonable.

But Chu MuYun also didn’t want to make Jun Mo unhappy.

Thinking about it, he felt really awkward.

But at this moment, Xie QianLan said, “I don’t know how Ah-Mu helped Jun Mo suppress the Body of Heavenly Disaster?”

Chu MuYun didn’t know why but whenever the topic turned to Jun Mo, he couldn’t help but become more vigilant.

Xie QianLan added: “Back then, Ah-Yun also did some research on the Body of Natural Disaster and I followed it up. I found out that there is a kind of body called the Silver Fortune Body that can counteract it. If you take the Silver Fortune Pill, you can suppress this natural disaster.

Seeing that he knew so clearly, Chu MuYun said, “It’s true.” 

Xie QianLan smiled and said, “But this Silver Fortune Pill has an expiration date. Just a little while ago I got a pill recipe. This pill can get rid of his misfortunes once and for all.”

Chu MuYun’s eyes suddenly lit up: “Is there really such a way?”

Xie QianLan said, “Why would I lie to you?”

Chu MuYun was really happy but he immediately hesitated. A recipe such as this would be a rare treasure from the ancient times so how could he open his mouth to ask for it…?

Xie QianLan said again: “This Body of Heavenly Disaster is extremely rare. Jun Mo and I have an old relationship and I don’t mind giving it to him. However the recipe is in my WanXiang Palace. Can I invite the two of you to come back with me?”

Chu MuYun really didn’t know what to say: “Young Master Xie is kind and generous. This kindness will never be forgotten by Ling Mu. If there is anything I can help you with in the future, please ask without hesitation and don’t pity me!”

He bowed deeply and Xie QianLan lifted him up: “Don’t be so polite, if you don’t dislike it, Ah-Mu you can call me big brother from now on.”

Chu MuYun was completely convinced by him and said sincerely, “Thank you big brother!”

The corners of Xie QianLan’s mouth were slightly raised but there was a trace of malice in his eyes.

This time, there was no need to say goodbye. Chu MuYun was happy and wanted to hurry to tell Jun Mo.

He said to Xie QianLan, “I’ll go and talk to Ah-Mo.”

Xie QianLan responded, “Okay.”

Chu MuYun opened the tent and walked inside and found Jun Mo sitting down.

Chu MuYun smiled and said, “Awake?”

Jun Mo raised his eyes and looked over. The man who came in backed by the warm light of the morning sun was clearly in a good mood and had good spirits. Then he looked at the clean clothes and the water stains at the ends of his ink hair. The whole person was fresh and light. He had obviously bathed.

The mental images that had tortured Jun Mo all night once again pierced his heart like a steel needle.

Ah-Mu didn’t return all night and, when he came back in the morning, he looked like this…

He believed in him but was this how he treated his trust?

Chu MuYun didn’t notice his strangeness. He only approached and asked, “Did you sleep well last night? I had some things to deal with temporarily and didn’t have time to tell you.”

Jun Mo’s face was calm but his pair of silver eyes were full of dullness: “I see.”

He didn’t ask Chu MuYun what he did and Chu MuYun was relieved. He didn’t want him to worry so he didn’t mention the Asura Domain. He also didn’t want to lie to deceive him so it was better to just hopefully muddle over it like this.

Although Jun Mo didn’t look at him, he noticed Chu MuYun’s expression of relief. In an instant, despair came crashing down like a tide and his eyes nearly turned black.

Then Chu MuYun said again: “I didn’t bid farewell to Xie bro… uh… Young Master Xie. He told me…”

How could Jun Mo not hear that what he wanted to say was Big Brother Xie? His lips trembled slightly and then turned to look at Chu MuYun with a blank look in his eyes: “What did he say?”

Chu MuYun smiled and coaxed him: “Ah-Mo, let’s go to the WanXiang Palace, I want to see where you used to live.”
