“Meng Qiqi, are you finished?” As soon as Meng Qi opened the door, Sikong Xing jumped in front of her: “I’m waiting for you to have lunch.”
With her cultivation level, Sikong Xing no longer needed to eat. However, the cuisine of Three Thousand Worlds was famous even in the other two realms. Sikong Xing often heard about it in the Demon Realm. Now that she was here, of course she had to go and have a feast.
“Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing took Meng Qi’s arm affectionately, “Where are we going next?”
“I want to go back to Fentian City.” Meng Qi said as she looked up. Chu Tianfeng and Qin Xiumo were still standing under a tree in the courtyard. Su Junmo sat on a stone bench, murmured endlessly as if he was being bullied by the other two.
“Afterward, I will depart for Xingluo City.” Meng Qi asked: “What about you?”
“Of course I’m going with you.” Sikong Xing replied cheerfully: “I am unfamiliar with Three Thousand Worlds, and I don’t know anything. Wherever you go, I’m accompanying you.”
“Aren’t you going to find your mother?” Meng Qi asked.
“Yes, yes.” Sikong Xing nodded vigorously, “but I don’t know her identity or whereabouts, so it’s fine to follow you. Maybe I can meet her on the way.”
Meng Qi: “…”
“Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing took her arm, “I only know you here…”
“Sikong Xing.” Su Junmo disagreed, “Don’t you also know me?”
Sikong Xing pretended to be deaf. She spoke cheerfully as she took Meng Qi’s hand and walked out. “Anyway, I am free. I heard that you are going to attend Medical Cultivator Conference. Let me go too. We don’t have a specialized medical sect back home, so I have never seen so many medical cultivators in one place.”
“Sikong Xing, did you lie to me before? It wasn’t your father who asked you to come to Three Thousand Worlds, but you sneaked here to play?” Su Junmo chased the two girls. “Did something really happen to your father?”
The figures of three, alongside Su Junmo and Sikong Xing’s arguing voice, drifted farther and farther.
Chu Tianfeng and Qin Xiumo exchanged a glance.
“My injury is not healed yet.” Qin Xiumo said unhurriedly, “I can still follow her.”
Damn it!
Chu Tianfeng punched the tree trunk next to him. What excuse could he make? This was the case last time in Qingfeng Valley. He couldn’t find a suitable excuse and had to go home in dejection.
“Heh—” Qin Xiumo threw him a glance, then turned around and strode to chase the other three. The internal injuries caused by the qi deviation last time had not yet been completely healed, and it would take some time before he could finally be promoted into the Nascent Soul stage. But Qin Xiumo wasn’t in a hurry. He could recover slowly, and it would be best if Meng Qi didn’t do anything so he could slowly drag on for another half a year.
“Qin Xiumo.” After eating, Meng Qi went to the Beyond The Heaven relay station. Besides the Blazing Feather and that mysterious jade slip she got at the auction, she also ordered several medicines. “After we return to Fentian City, I will treat your injuries first.” Meng Qi said. “Afterward, we—”
“What about the jade cicada vine?” Qin Xiumo asked quickly. “Didn’t you say you were going to take some jade cicada vines? You don’t need it anymore?”

“I’ll accompany Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing smiled brilliantly and held Meng Qi’s arm. “I heard it is a place where ancient powerhouse fought fiercely, so nothing could grow there except for jade cicada vine. I also want to go and have a look.”
Qin Xiumo: “…”
For a long time, Qin Xiumo couldn’t say anything.
Chu Tianfeng glanced gleefully. This guy could no longer cling shamelessly, right?
…
When Meng Qi and her group departed for Huajiang Manor, they were with Xue Chengxuan and his two colleagues. When they went back, there was an extra Sikong Xing, which made the journey more lively.
On their way back to Fentian City, the group rode Su Junmo’s flying magic tool. It was Sikong Xing’s first time coming to Three Thousand Worlds. She was curious about everything, so she stuck to Meng Qi and asked many questions along the way. Being in a good mood after obtaining the Blazing Feather, Meng Qi patiently answered her questions.
“So the Medical Cultivators Conference is a grand gathering of medical cultivators from all four realms in Three Thousand Worlds. Then why does Xingluo City host it?” Sikong Xing asked. “You just said that Xingluo Pavilion is a very influential sword sect in the Eastern Realm, right?”
“Yes.” Meng qi nodded. “Xingluo Pavilion Master promised the medical society that he will enter the Starfallen Sea for ten years. In exchange for the right to host the Medical Cultivators Conference this year, he will hunt various monster beasts and spiritual plants that can be used as medicinal ingredients.”
“Wow!” Sikong Xing’s eyes widened: “Starfallen Sea! This pavilion master is truly amazing!”
“Yeah.” Meng Qi raised her eyebrows and smiled, “Right? You think so too.”
“There is a legend in our Demon Realm.” Sikong Xing hugged her knees and sat down beside Meng Qi. Su Junmo’s flying magic tool was not slow, and the wind blew upon her red dress and long hair. In Sikong Xing’s bright eyes, her gaze became somewhat distant.
“No matter how powerful a celestial demon is, once they fall into the Starfallen Sea, none of their bones or soul would remain.” Sikong Xing turned at Meng Qi, moved closer, and whispered: “I heard my father say that the Demon Monarch’s disappearance this time is rumored to be falling into the Starfallen Sea.”
“Sikong Xing!” Su Junmo was furious. “Do you believe in that nonsense?”
“I don’t believe it.” Sikong Xing replied: “But the rumor is spreading everywhere. At this moment, even the most elite guards who served the Monarch are trapped in the Seventh Heaven. The Demon Monarch Order has yet to appear, and every force begins to show their ambition.”
Su Junmo: “…”
This time, Su Junmo didn’t refute Sikong Xing. He frowned and looked at the distance. He was also very confused. The Lord wasn’t disappearing, nor was he seriously injured as the rumor said. Su Junmo himself even met him before but couldn’t feel the Lord’s existence in the entire Demon Realm.
The Demon Realm was indeed very chaotic right now. What is the Lord thinking?
Why doesn’t he go back?
Su Junmo’s mind was in a messy state. He no longer bothered to argue with Sikong Xing, yet he also didn’t dare to directly question the Lord.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
Meng Qi glanced below and broke the silence: “We are here.”
The group landed outside Fentian City smoothly.
“Young Palace Master Chu.” Meng Qi first cupped her hands at Chu Tianfeng, “Farewell.”

“Let’s go.” After she said that, she nodded towards Qin Xiumo and the others and walked towards the city.
“Hey…” Chu Tianfeng was stunned for a moment before caught up hurriedly. “I also have a courtyard in the city. It’s part of Fentian Palace’s property and will be much safer. Meng Qiqi, how about you stay in my courtyard?”
“Thank you.” Meng Qi smiled politely. “Ruyi Inn is also very good. We shouldn’t bother Young Palace Master Chu any longer.”
Chu Tianfeng: “…”
He watched Meng Qi and the others walked forward. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t find a reason to follow them.
What to do? What to do? What to do?
What should he do now?
He also wants to follow Meng Qi to Xingluo City!
Qin Xiumo’s situation was not much better. He walked behind Meng Qi with a heavy mood, as if he wasn’t going to heal his injury, but to receive a sentence.
Refuse to accept the treatment? Meng Qi might drive him away immediately.
Pretend his injury still not get healed? What a joke, Meng Qi could easily tell whether he pretended or not!
How….difficult!

At this time, both Chu Tianfeng and Qin Xiumo’s minds were actually in sync.
Chu Tianfeng watched until Meng Qi and the others disappeared at the corner of the street. Knowing that he couldn’t get a good idea at this moment, he walked towards Fentian Palace dejectedly.
Fentian Palace was located on the edge of Fentian City and occupied five peaks with the strongest aura. On the highest peak was the sect’s main hall, and the inner disciples usually lived near this peak.
Chu Tianfeng returned home in frustration. Before he walked to his residence, a disciple hurriedly ran towards him.
“Young Palace Master.” The disciple cupped his hands. “Palace Master is looking for you. He asks you to see him immediately.”
“I see.” Chu Tianfeng’s mood didn’t get better. Since he remembered the events in his previous life, there was a gap with his father. Logic told him that his father’s choice was the most correct and the best for Fentian Palace. Although Chu Ji was Chu Tianfeng’s father, he was a sect leader first and foremost. When Chu Tianfeng was deemed unrescuable, it was the best choice to abandon him and train a new heir. As the head of Fentian Palace, Chu Ji did it right.
Chu Tianfeng’s expression slowly faded. Changed to him, perhaps he would make the same choice for the sect.
But…
Chu Tianfeng wiped the emotion in his eyes before stepped into Chu Ji’s room.
“Father.” Chu Tianfeng saluted. “Elder Xun.”
Xun Yan was also in Chu Ji’s room, smiling at Chu Tianfeng. Chu Ji’s eyes flashed across the face of his only child. He was reticent by nature, so Xun Yan spoke to Chu Tianfeng instead: “Young Palace Master, the Palace Master and I met young Daoist Meng Qi at Beyond The Heaven’s Heaven Auction House today.”
“Huh?” Suddenly heard the name ‘Meng Qi’ from Xun Yan, Chu Tianfeng was stunned. “Beyond The Heaven?”
“Yes.”
“But isn’t she still in the Foundation Establishment stage?” Chu Tianfeng said subconsciously. Even he was not yet eligible to enter Beyond The Heaven.
“No wonder she always…” Chu Tianfeng said halfway and suddenly closed his mouth. It was no wonder Meng Qi always locked herself inside the room. Was she visiting Beyond The Heaven?
Chu Tianfeng heard many things about this place. It was said that inside Beyond The Heaven, there was nothing you couldn’t buy. Far better than Cloud Immortal Pavilion.
Xun Yan looked at Chu Tianfeng with a smile, but did not ask him what he was about to say. Instead, the elder said: “After leaving Qingfeng Valley, young Daoist Meng seemed to be calmer and more capable. Has Young Palace Master seen her recently?”
“Yeah.” Chu Tianfeng nodded.
Xu Yan glanced at Chu Ji, who was still silent and expressionless, then slowly said: “Medical Cultivators Conference will soon be held in Xingluo City. Cultivators from Fentian Palace’s medical hall is also going to participate.”
Chu Tianfeng’s eyes instantly brightened.
Xun Yan’s smile became wider: “Medical Cultivators Conference is a once in ten years event where the top medical cultivators in Three Thousand Worlds gather together. It is the most important event for the medical society.”
“Palace Master wants young master to go with the elder who supervises the medical hall. If you encounter suitable talent, you might as well recruit them into Fentian Palace. This is also to gather experience.”
“Okay.” Chu Tianfeng did not hesitate. “Thank you, father. Thank you, Elder Xun!”
“Go back.” Chu Ji finally spoke.
“Yes!” Chu Tianfeng bowed respectfully, then turned back and walked away quickly.
Seeing his son’s excitement, Chu Ji’s face was still without expression. “Her appearance isn’t that outstanding. Her cultivation base is still in the Foundation Establishment stage…” His eyelids drooped slightly. “But Tianfeng rarely shows such an excitement.”
“Young Daoist Meng saved young palace master. Her temperament is excellent. She is kindhearted, careful, and calm. She and young palace master complement each other so well.” Xun Yan said with a smile. “What’s more, she is a Foundation Establishment cultivator who can enter the Heaven Auction House…Palace Master, there is no need to worry too much.”
“You are right.” Chu Ji closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Chu Tianfeng hurriedly discussed the arrangement with the elder from Fentian Palace’s medical hall, packed up casually, then dashed back to Ruyi Inn to find Meng Qi.
In Ruyi Inn, Chu Tianfeng only saw Qin Xiumo. The black-robed young man sat in the courtyard. His complexion wasn’t that good, yet his body was surging with spiritual aura. Chu Tianfeng cautiously walked towards him and asked: “Where is Meng Qi?”
“Picking the jade cicada vine with Sikong Xing.”
“You…” Chu Tianfeng circled Qin Xiumo. “Are you going to breakthrough?”
“Yeah.” Qin Xiumo nodded, “It’s just right. I’m about to go to Fentian Palace to find you.”
“Finding me for what?” Chu Tianfeng replied. “I’m going to find Meng Qi now. My father sends me together with a team to attend the Medical Cultivator Conference. I can go to Xingluo City with her.”
“You can’t!” Qin Xiumo suddenly stood up. “I’m about to breakthrough. You should guard my surrounding. Let’s go.”
“Why should I?!” Chu Tianfeng laughed angrily, “Just take your time and breakthrough slowly. See you later in Xingluo City.”
“You know how strong that person is.” Qin Xiumo raised his eyes and looked at Chu Tianfeng coldly. “So, you have to protect me, lest I got attacked again and failed to return to my peak. Of course…” He said solemnly, “When you need it, I will naturally help you. After all, we are….” Qin Xiumo raised the corner of his lips: “Friend in life and death!”
“Fuck!” Chu Tianfeng cursed loudly. He spat out: “How long will it be?”
“Three to five days.” Qin Xiumo replied. “Let’s go. Show me a safe place to pass the tribulation. You are a native here and more familiar with the surrounding. Lead the way.”
“…” Chu Tianfeng snorted disdainfully, but he didn’t argue. He somewhat understood why Qin Xiumo was called ‘Little Devil Lord’ in the past. This guy was truly unpredictable and insidious.
But Qin Xiumo was right. They were now in the same boat. He trusted this guy and vice versa. When he needed help, Qin Xiumo would definitely lend his hand.
…
“Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing landed smoothly on the ground with the cold jade box in her hand. “Is this the jade cicada vine?” She looked curiously at the beautiful jade-like vines inside the cold jade box. The vines had multiple fruits that were shaped like a cicada.
“Yeah.” Meng Qi carefully took the cold jade box and estimated the price. “In the market, these jade cicada vines can be sold for…”
“Wait!” Sikong Xing hurriedly stopped her. “You aren’t going to calculate payment with me, right?!” Without waiting for Meng Qi to reply, she said again: “I’m helping a friend, not working for money!”
“But…”
“No but!” Sikong Xing held Meng Qi’s shoulders affectionately, “I’m bored anyway, and it’s not a big deal. You can just provide me with food and shelter along the way.”
“Okay.” Meng Qi smiled slightly, “Then, I will thank you.”
“Let’s go!” Sikong Xing shouted. “We will depart to Xingluo City!”
…
Meanwhile, outside the Huajiang Manor’s Cultivator Alliance.
Lu Qingran followed behind the black-robed man and occasionally raised her eyes to look at him cautiously before quickly turned her eyes away. They have been wandering outside the Huajiang Manor for three or four days. Not to mention immortal devouring vine, they hadn’t even found a single demon cultivator again. The debt they owed had interest. For each day the payment was delayed, the principal amount would only get raised.
The man’s mood gradually became colder and more impatient.
Lu Qingran lowered her head in fear.
“There is no demon cultivators who use immortal devouring vine around Huajiang Manor.” When Lu Qingran was deep in thought, she heard the black-robed man said coldly. “Did you trick me?”
“Trick you? No, no, it was just that two days ago, all the demon cultivators got swept up in one go, so the big crisis at Huajiang Manor has been resolved.” Su Qian, who was manning the Cultivator Alliance office, smiled at the two and explained patiently.
“Hah!” The black-robed man snorted, “Change the mission.”
“The mission with reward in range of seventh to eighth-grade spirit stones is temporarily unavailable. Why don’t you go to Xingluo City? There will be a Medical Cultivator Conference soon. The branch over there should have many tasks.”
The black-robed stopped talking, turned around, and walked out.

“Old Su, you hear me!” Before he and Lu Qingran left the alliance office, a male cultivator strode in. The man had a beard and looked pretty brash. He yelled as he walked: “Those demon cultivators are all swept out in one go and didn’t even leave us a single crumb. That person…that Foundation Establishment cultivator I met that day, how can she is this strong?!” It was Ji Wenyuan.
When the black-robed man heard the words’ Foundation Establishment cultivator’, he was momentarily stunned.
Could it be…
“Not only is she still in the Foundation Establishment stage, but she is also a medical cultivator? Is it true? Old Su, don’t lie to me! Which medical cultivator can be this ruthless?”
Foundation Establishment stage? Medical cultivator? It’s her again!
The black-robed man clenched his hands tightly.
Very good! It’s that Meng Qi again, right?
He remembered this!
