Chu Yu was a little worried about his own future.

However, he did not worry for long, as a new wave of rumors directed at the Chu family emerged.

According to the rumor, there was a forbidden area in the Falling Maple Leaf Valley of the Chu family. The remnant of the Demon Lord Yan Heng’s soul was said to be confined in the middle of this restricted area, waiting for the day he would be released. He would then join forces with the demonic cultivators from the inside to trounce the righteous path cultivators in a pincer attack and seize their territory.

Being labeled as such was a different matter from the previous riveting mud-slinging of their reputation. The previous incident could be used as a topic of conversation at the dining table, but when it came to these four words – “the righteous path’s traitor” – even the melon-eating masses1 would begin to stir.

Outsiders would not have known about the Chu family’s forbidden area, but since news of it had spread – and in such a believable way at that – then it could only mean that there was a mole.

After ascertaining that there were no issues with Lu Qingan, Chu Yu sent off a voice transmitting talisman and prepared to rush back to Falling Maple Leaf Valley. After all, this was a Chu family’s matter and it was not really appropriate for outsiders to interfere, especially since it had not escalated out of control yet. Xie Xi originally meant to set off with Chu Yu, but he was pulled back by Lu Qingan.

Other than Chu Yu, the only other person Xie Xi would listen to was Lu Qingan. He pursed his lips as he tightened his grip on Chu Yu until his fingertips turned slightly white.

Chu Yu was standing at the entrance of the barrier. He lowered his head to look at Xie Xi’s hand, and could not help but coughed dryly. He swept his glance over the two humans – and one soul – in front of him.

Shen Nian stretched his neck, wanting to continue to watch the show, only to be hoisted up backhandedly by Lu Qingan and yanked away. Seeing his own backer leave, Third Shidi did not dare to tempt fate and stay on to watch the show either, and thus he also slipped away silently.

Chu Yu gave a sigh and stroked Xie Xi’s back, “Alright, this is nothing. I’m only going back to deal with this traitor. After I’ve resolved it and discussed it with my brother, I’ll come back to accompany you, never to leave again.”

Xie Xi remained silent.

Chu Yu continued, “If anything happens, I’ll transmit a message to you.”

Xie Xi’s face darkened. All of a sudden, he pinched Chu Yu’s chin forcibly and lifted it as he lowered his head to kiss his soft lips fiercely. His moist, black eyes burned with an intense fire as he bit and licked like a little beast possessed. Chu Yu felt slightly smothered. He hesitated for a moment, then instead of pushing him away, he extended his hands to hug him back as he stretched out his tongue and took the initiative to deepen the kiss.

It was a long time before Xie Xi finally released his hold on Chu Yu and said softly to him, “I’ll wait for you to return.”’

“Mhm”

“We’ve agreed, if anything happens, you can’t take risks on your own; wait for me.”

“Mhm.” After saying this, Chu Yu solemnly nodded his head, then followed up with a smile, “ Alright, you should cultivate well these days. Don’t keep bullying Third Shidi.”

After a pause, Chu Yu waved to him, rode Xun Sheng, and left Yuan Chen Peak.

It was nearing the end of winter, but the sky was still overcast and gloomy. Chu Yu felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding and carefully mulled over those ‘hot off the press’ rumors.
